    It’s a very common trope now with modern women - once they get what they want and you “put a ring on it”, she checks out because she thinks she doesn’t have to bother trying anymore. If she leaves, she still gets half his stuff. Society has taught women that there’s no downside to being selfish. Her needs are the only thing that matters.

    Wheat Waffles or any blackpill KZreadr never said that looks or height are everything. He is just saying that in 2024, looks and height have become more and more important. For instance, 90% of women are only chasing the top 10% of the most attractive men because social media and dating apps have given women countless options and validation. He has also provided a lot of data to support his point. Blackpill also points out that how people, especially women, treat you is mainly based on your looks. Confidence and personality only matter if she is already attracted to you by your looks first.

    I'd agree with everything up til the last sentence. I've become attractive to women when I was invisible before through them getting to know me socially, or through being confident in approaching them. Only in online dating and social media does looks become an absolute barrier. There's some flexibility in real life with enough women for it to be worth attempting.

    Yeah, it would be nice to meet someone to date for the first time in decades who wasn't a train wreck and who didn't expect to be able to control, use, or emasculate men and that she'll reciprocate, because having boundaries and expectations that she'll behave makes a guy undatable. If a guy is a complete walkover and gives her feminine energy, she'll be interested. It's funny that when they discover very early on that you have boundaries that they immediately vanish.

    If he was that successful then certainly he had heard of a pre-nuptial agreement. Men that pick their wives based on their appearance rather than on their character know what they are getting. They are getting a self-centered one-trick pony. So why are these men surprised when they later lack positive character traits? They were blinded by their hormones then clutch their pearls when the pretty snake bites them.

    Women find men who are already in relationships more attractive, and will sometimes try to “ steal him” for two reasons. First, it’s not because she thinks “ oh she can deal with him” its more like “he’s willing to commit, he wants to be in a relationship, and his partner seems happy, he has a job, she has a decent car, I wish I had what she has”. Second, the women who do end up trying to see if they can “steal” him, usually have an a self worth wound that they aren’t aware of, and it is expressed as high self esteem instead of low. This is because on a subconscious level, they believe that if she can get a man to leave his partner, get him to stray, get him to risk or leave his family or wife for her, then in her mind it makes her better than his wife or girlfriend. Most if not damn near all are completely unaware of this to be the case. But if examined, you will find that there was a situation in her life that left her feeling like she wasn’t wanted, she was abandoned, or rejected.

    Sounds like my first marriage. I spent 15 years in a sexless marriage. My life was centered around trying to make her happy. Nothing I did was good enough. “If you would do X, Y, Z I would be in the mood.” I would do that only to be told “If you would do A, B, C I would be in the mood.” My life was being constantly criticized and withholding of sex as a weapon. I also ignored the red flags before we got married. It took 15 years for me to break. Thankfully I met another woman who understands the importance of physical intimacy including sex. Over a decade later and we have a solid relationship of mutual respect and gratitude (and an active sex life). My relationship with my second wife is everything I had ever hoped for with a woman. I am the happiest I have ever been with her and the children she has given me.

    People need to understand that dating is inherently discriminatory and unfair for both women and men. Just because some people have an obvious advantage it doesn’t mean the rest of us won’t find a partner. Imagine perfectly functional men are giving up because of looks how are disabled people, burn victim finding a partner? I think the real problem here is most of the time this people desire people who “ are out of their league “ and I hate saying this because there is no such a thing as leagues but they want people who would never give them a chance sometimes because of fantasy other times to prove their insecurities right and abandon. All this to say if looks is what you focus on tho put yourself out there then you are doomed. There are non attractive people who are in committed relationship because looks are not everything, they communicate well, are interesting, intelligent, charming and well behaved and that’s far more attractive on the long run

    6 years in a relationship and the longest stretch has been 7 months of no intimacy. He has so many reasons in the book on why we don’t have sex. At the end of the day it’s all a sorry attempt of an excuse! I cried so much that he finally gave into having sex… that I initiated might I add. But that was a month ago. I have so much shame around this! He’ll have his friends over and they make comments/jokes around sex and I save face for him all the time.

But without communication and honesty, nothing will change.

    I dont think its ever a good idea to bring up lack of intimacy to your partner as it never results in more intimacy. They see you as needy. For me its 3 strikes youre out rule. If i initiate intimacy 3 times in a row and am rejected it is clear that the person is no longer interested in having sex. When someone desires you you they will have have sex with you effortlessly. If you are not fulfilled then it is time to move on. People get complacent and then they string you along as they continue to lose respect for you. This is in any relationship. Married or not.

Girls that invest in looks do this to attack and to sell their beauty for easy life. Better to have fun with them and the run . Now i am with a normal girl and life is more easy she even pay some stuff. Even regular girls don’t want 50/50 but is more acceptable and she is greatfull. Girls are stupid in 2024 that way , the beautiful ones will die alone and the regular will be cheated, because bouth want a top man , a top man will have options. Girls don’t love you for what you are 100% they love you for what you have : money , status , life style. The more you look nice and arose her easily you get discount for her love , the more you attract with money , the more you will pay 😂. Best relationship are the one with equality, money and looks , women don’t want that , they want just the hole thing. Guys that have the hole thing , will not stay just with one .
