    Many toxic, feminist women of today find positive terms for negative reality: "Intimidated by me" = Annoyed of toxicity, "Independent" = Lonely, "Freedom" = sleeping around with many guys. If a woman wonders why she only finds guys for sleeping and not long term, she should ask herself also, if it is her attitude.

    I actually think men aren't told to correct their flaws. They are shamed for them and then told to be themselves which is counter productive to fixing their issues. Women on the other hand have a protective bubble called feminism and cancel culture to dismiss any and all criticism. I legit got into an argument with a feminist who in one sentence said 'men only want sex' and then shamed me for saying woman were shallow in regards to physical attractiveness when matching with partners on dating apps. Despite having data showing how men are more fair in regards to initial attraction she shamed me for generalizing women yet literally a second before she generalised men. The saddest thing is their preference for attractive males is the exact reason they think all men want sex. They literally seek out their own predators. Men who got fit, attractive, muscular to have sex with women. You bring up a mens issue and women always respond with manipulation by flipping the script and changing the topic to be about women's issues - ignoring the mens issue and shaming the male for the woman's issue. Thus creating this dichotomy where vocal women shout out loud, despite being a minority. Which because they're the only one speaking thats the only ideas they hear. So they think they have public support. When in fact just self respecting man wants to engage in such a one sided conversation and is perfectly content letting the wacko scream, shout, and pout, and just date other women with better values. The lack of critical thinking in modern women is just unbelievable.

    “In love affairs a woman is more barbarian than a man.” “The true man wants two things: danger and play. For that reason he wants woman, as the most dangerous plaything.” ―Friedrich Nietzsche, esteemed "laughing lion" German philosopher Courtney, an invisible hand of applause for your radiant beauty as well as of stylistic art appreciation from a new US subscriber--though 'm sure you receive many compliments on your sleek lush hair and hypnotic jaguar eyes On the key issues you address about modern dating, we need only look to the past to find the ideal way a woman should interact with a man for long term endearing relationship. Only 3 rules and a woman will attract a man of gravitas and substance. 1. SILENCE IS GOLDEN. if modern women could just in general stop the constant barista like voice chatter and the soap opera drama and chatter. Silence, and listen to your man. Don't bother him at work, take interest in his field and then let the man in peace with only brief interludes of pleasant conversation revolving around music, art, puzzles, humour, and perhaps show an interest in say the UFC and ask him what he thinks of Tom Aspinal the new UFC HW champion, and watch his interest go sky high for you. He will recognize the beauty of your heart even if lady does not possess the radiant beauty of Courtney. Then. leave the man alone and set a date for a movie or romantic dinner. BUT Silence and no empty barista banter or annoying talk. 2. Learn to listen and play the music of Jimmy Buffett, Blake Shelton, Journey, and Dierks Bentley and maybe Hank Williams Junior with a dash of Beethoven and Chopin for classical music. Listen to music and also learn to play poker with your man or at least understand poker or chess and include if possible a family game night. Make the relationship as easy and relaxed yet inspired as listening to the Jimmy Buffett song Margaritaville while walking down a romantic beach with your man where only the sounds of the ocean are in play. And the woman is silenttttttttttt!!! 3. Don't forget rule number 1 or 2!!!!!!!!!!!! Only 3 rules, and the natural chemistry of a man and woman can then flourish in a bungalow like room where only the sounds of the wind caressing the palm trees are heard as well as two hearts beating as one as a couple find true, endearing love through SILENCE and soft lush pillows!!!!!!!!!!!

She didn’t know I grew up waiting tables and pumping gas to get through my first 3 years of college. What I care about isn’t not how much money a woman brings to the table, but how much positive attitude she brings to the relationship. Is she curious, wanting to learn, looking to support the people around her. An indicator of the type of person she is - her laugh. If a woman has a heart felt laugh, and laughs easily , this is almost like her soul is speaking out. Nice video. Thank you!

    Unfortunately, feminism, social media and poor parenting have seduced and subtly encouraged many young women into thinking that arrogance is somehow a flex and that humility and self reflection are for "other people" and not themselves. Better to not have these kind of "friends" in your life because, instead of being honest with you when you need to hear hard truths, they will either blow sunshine up your backside with "you go girl" and "manifest that" talk or will drag you down into their emotional holes with them (misery loves company), and in either scenario, they will ultimately not help you positively grow and improve as an individual, friend or GF/wife. So better to not have "friends" whose default settings are arrogant lack to personal responsibility and deluded beliefs of perpetual victimhood - because such people are typically insufferable, entitled and lack empathy and will likely end up alone, bitter and clueless as to why everyone is "intimidated by their greatness." 🤷

    "Women don't really hold themselves or each other accountable." - most underrated statement Courtney makes. Men are supposed to handle their own trauma and their own emotions. Women are not: they are encouraged to seek someone to soothe them and affirm them. Men are supposed to be completely secure with a woman being exactly who they are, and seek not to alter them. Women, via hypergamy, are encouraged to ensure that the value of her man is rooted in what he can do for her. He must be strong. He must be enviable. He must provide resources in excess of what she makes. He needs to be her therapist, her bankroll, her bodyguard, her waitstaff, her manual labor. She needs only to be herself. When he does wrong, other men around him are supposed to correct him, and he is required to correct men who do wrong. He is a good man if he submits to the self-policing men do for their own gender (knowing we are judged solely by the worst of our number) and polices other men who do wrong. She is always a good woman even if she engages in bad behaviors. Another woman will validate and affirm that she is right in what she is doing. Holding another woman accountable is social suicide for any woman.

    It's funny that I had the conversation in a group of women (I'm male) where one was trying to figure out "Why this guy ghosted me." The women all told her how wonderful she was and how she intimidated him. I asked why she liked the guy, and she rattled off a long string of very positive attributes. I then asked how many other men she was dating at the time, and she said, "Four, but this is the guy I really want." And I had to say, "He didn't get that message if you were dating four other men. And men can tell when some woman is running them in rotation." Low value men will allow themselves to be run that way. High value men will not. They won't waste their time with low value women, and when they find a high value woman, she'll get their undivided attention. If they don't get that in return, ladies, expect to be ghosted. And don't kid yourself that you intimidated any of them.

After the first date, she said she wanted to go out again, but still wanted to keep her options open (because she was new to America and her whore coworkers convinced her the America way to date is to see 4 or 5 guys at once and whittle them down). I wished her good luck, but that shit won't fly with me. You want to date me and only me, giving it an honest shot, or you don't. Joke was on me. She decided to ignore her friends and went all in on me and within 2 weeks she was talking about marriage and when I broke it off shortly after that, she was border line stalker LOL. That's also a first hand warning to the men on here who constantly say to go get an Asian woman. I've dated a number of Asian immigrants and they are f'n crazy/obsessive.

This video reminded me of me, my brothers and my dad having an intense discussion when we were younger at home and my mom would ask us to "stop arguing", and the 2 of us would tell her "we're not arguing, we're having a discussion" lol. The point being, as passionate as we could get, we were still able and willing to be reasonable and listen to the other person. We had an understanding that the issue at hand wasn't the other person, it was the subject we were talking about. We didn't take things personally, we were objective, and hence could afford to be open and honest. So a woman who doesn't know how to be objective and always takes things personally is just a headache. That's not a person you can be open, honest or vulnerable with.

    “In love affairs a woman is more barbarian than a man.” “The true man wants two things: danger and play. For that reason he wants woman, as the most dangerous plaything.” ―Friedrich Nietzsche, esteemed "laughing lion" German philosopher Courtney, an invisible hand of applause for your radiant beauty as well as of stylistic art appreciation from a new US subscriber--though 'm sure you receive many compliments on your sleek lush hair and hypnotic jaguar eyes On the key issues you address about modern dating, we need only look to the past to find the ideal way a woman should interact with a man for long term endearing relationship. Only 3 rules and a woman will attract a man of gravitas and substance. 1. SILENCE IS GOLDEN. if modern women could just in general stop the constant barista like voice chatter and the soap opera drama and chatter. Silence, and listen to your man. Don't bother him at work, take interest in his field and then let the man in peace with only brief interludes of pleasant conversation revolving around music, art, puzzles, humour, and perhaps show an interest in say the UFC and ask him what he thinks of Tom Aspinal the new UFC HW champion, and watch his interest go sky high for you. He will recognize the beauty of your heart even if lady does not possess the radiant beauty of Courtney. Then. leave the man alone and set a date for a movie or romantic dinner. BUT Silence and no empty barista banter or annoying talk. 2. Learn to listen and play the music of Jimmy Buffett, Blake Shelton, Journey, and Dierks Bentley and maybe Hank Williams Junior with a dash of Beethoven and Chopin for classical music. Listen to music and also learn to play poker with your man or at least understand poker or chess and include if possible a family game night. Make the relationship as easy and relaxed yet inspired as listening to the Jimmy Buffett song Margaritaville while walking down a romantic beach with your man where only the sounds of the ocean are in play. And the woman is silenttttttttttt!!! 3. Don't forget rule number 1 or 2!!!!!!!!!!!! Only 3 rules, and the natural chemistry of a man and woman can then flourish in a bungalow like room where only the sounds of the wind caressing the palm trees are heard as well as two hearts beating as one as a couple find true, endearing love through SILENCE and soft lush pillows!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched this with my friends and we got mental over how wrong it was. Financial success doesn't make you intimidating, it often makes you more attractive. What's really intimidating is when a woman looks down on a less-successful man who dared to ask her out.

But most of it is validation and rationalization of bad behavior. Some of these women don't care and most have an attitude of "as long as I'm pretty and have a p*ssy then I can get away with whatever I want. "I'm not the problem, I'm the prize 🏆" and with that thinking. Men start to just walk away entirely from that.

I think she is on ex #7. I call her a succubus because she becomes what they are looking for. She likes what they like and works to make them happy. After a while, she gets tired of being this image she puts on. No matter how many times I tell her she has to be herself, she doesn't listen. I only ever had 1 girlfriend and I married her. We knew each other in high school and dated after I graduated. We married when I was 19. This was in 1995. We are still married. Most do not know what they are looking for. I was looking for what I needed and not wanted. I think that was the key to why I didn't date in high school and have been married this long.

    This is well stated! I had the experience in college to live in a house with 3 guys. Who happened to be frat boys. Our parents were friends and so were we. Like siblings. I learned so much from them from the relationships they had and the conversations about the “crazies”. I watched some of these girls act like clingy trophy huggers toward them. These guys were always so courteous, thoughtful, respectful and always looked out for me. As a result a lot of these girls didn’t like me. I took my friends input to heart when I had relationship or dating issues. I am happily married now to a man who is also my best friend. We have conversations and admitting we’re wrong about something isn’t hard at all since we challenge each other to be better people. We celebrate things, have fun together and have discussions rather than argue. He accepts me as I am and I accept him as he is. I thank my 3 friends for our time in college every day for the support and guidance they gave me about the opposite sex. They say they learned a lot from me as well since they realized the “party girls” weren’t really the ones worth settling down with. We can learn so much from each other when we listen rather than react to how we think they should be.

    Very much such so. I've dated some attractive and successful women (relative to my area) the last couple years, but when they create unnecessary drama or conflict, I'm out. Then they pull the, "A relationship is work" card. Yeah, a relationship is work, but not 1 month in it's not. There are times of work, but peace should be the base of your relationship. I'm in a new relationship now with a beautiful woman with very old fashioned, gender role based beliefs. The type where, I was cooking for her last night and it was driving her nuts that I was the one cooking and she was standing there talking and not working. She's no coward or doormat, just very level headed, down to earth, a nurturer and knows that very thing - That peace isn't just critical for your relationship, but your own mental health that can really drive your entire attitude. I've never met someone I meshed with so quickly with because her presence and demeanor is so calming. Probably why she's a therapist who works with specific mental health patients LOL. This is obviously far easier to come by for me in my 40s than a guy in his 20s. I really feel bad for the younger guys at this point (not to excuse them of their own short comings of being socially awkward, generally having no balls or know how to properly court women, and then slander the entire gender because of the bad apples). Courtney has her target audience, but the dysfunction of relationships is a 2 way street. I think it's a chicken and egg debate: Which came first, did men stop being real men first or did entitled, unrealistic women create these men? The feminist extremism of the last several years most certainly did a lot of damage.

That restlessness can lead to frustration in men and women. Maybe it's the rush of youthful hormones at play.

It's all about setting boundaries and expectations for what people are willing to discuss and what's off the table, that's the key. I have to do that with everyone because personally there's absolutely nothing I won't talk about, but I know that isn't the case for most others, therefore I have to find out what they're willing to talk about and what's not open for discussion, then I have to file that information away so I don't broach those subjects.

    @@brucebartup6161 Personally I think these things are wildly overblown or at least misrepresented. Most seem to not think twice about joint bank accounts, but the problem is: Are they on the same page about life style. One may be a spender who'd rather travel than save for retirement and the other prioritizes security over adventure. Anecdotal, but I've never seen the "have a headache" BS as a real problem. Lack of desire for sex is rarely the issue, it's the underlying reason for why, which is unresolved problems. The guy can't disrespect her, stop being a gentleman, or stop being romantic and expect the woman to want to bang him all the time. The love and thoughtful gestures can't stop just because you get married. It's also not just a man thing to not be able to talk rationally and compromise when you're butting heads, women are every bit as stubborn at times. Those type of things are why people stop having sex, not because no one is horny, but because you have bigger issues in the relationship.

When someone shows you who they are, believe them. I've now been with the same person for 25 yrs, and married for 23. I'm a high value male and have lots of other options, and she knows that - so she tries hard to make the relationship work, and so do I.

    I’ve always heard the “they’re intimidated by you” because I’m shy. I hardly say anything.

But I also think I’m just not seen because I’m often in the background and am too shy to put myself in the spotlight or even put myself out there. But the people who know me see my wild and more carefree side and come to me for advice because while I don’t speak a lot, I observe a lot and can apply that to try to help people. My shyness is something I’m trying to work on, but the past rejections from when I was more social and open always have their way of coming back to haunt me. It’s slow going, but I’m trying.

    My honest opinion is that you were pussy-whipped. And I'm not saying that as a put down, it's just how I see it. You put such a high value on sex with her that you simply let go of everything else and let her be the 'man in charge' because you didn't want to risk her saying "ok, no more sex for you". Therefore, since women can rarely make up their mind and stick to something no matter what, you found yourself in a situation where she kept changing things around constantly and always being unsatisfied by the outcome of her decisions and choices, and blaming you for it. And that ultimately led to the break up because you could never "man up" (she probably even said that at some point). Now, take a look back and tell me I'm wrong.

    Great video. The whole reason why we search for mates is that we have a need...a need for companionship, love, someone to share life with. Why would a man (or a woman) want to develop a relationship with someone who [supposedly] has no needs? If pride prevents us from admitting vulnerability (a need), then we'll continue to stay single. You can continue to kid yourself, place blame everywhere else, and that'll possibly make you feel better about yourself. But if you honestly look inward, you'll discover what this other lady did.

    Men don't care how much a woman makes because she considers the money she makes her money. She considers the money he makes - if she is generous - their money. The man has no access to her money and will have to sit and watch her spend her money on nails and hair and makeup and jewelry. Her goal in finding a man, it seems. is to be able to use more of her money on discretionary spending rather than basic overhead like rent and debt maintenance which "their money." will cover.

    Courtney, I'm a 64 year old man and the one thing I can say I have noticed getting more and more out of hand with both men and women in my lifetime is that there is a super-abundance of super-egomaniacs on both the male and female side. The arrogance and highly materialistic expectations of both sexes in North America, and doubtless Australia, New Zealand, the UK and western Europe, is the ruination of more relationships than I can shake a stick at. Marriage is a lifelong partnership, _whatever_ may happen to you as a married couple! You should never view your husband or your wife as someone you will heave overboard just because times get rough or someone "better" comes along. If that is how any person is, do not marry them! Just Pass Go and Collect your $200, and keep looking! Of course, if you can find that out about someone before getting married your life will be far better, ha, ha! 👌💘😉

It is all about what makes BOTH of us happy, not just one individual. If she wants to do something but detects it might not be my thing, she will not unilaterally decide she’ll do it, no matter how much I may not like it. Not taking your partner for granted goes miles in a relationship. It shows kindness, love, and most importantly, RESPECT for your other! If you’re acting like a Boss Babe (or Boss Man), it’s not a relationship, it’s simply all about YOU! No partnership survives without the active participation of BOTH involved parties.
