    Monogamy. The idea of loving only one woman all your life?

    IDEA 
    This implies having a serious relationship means one can't pursue their dreams and desires? Which is patently false, unless your idea of dreams and desires is limited to hooking up with lots. Of course you can't find a girl like that. That's how men love. :bored: How BP of you. Suppose you...

    IDEA 
    What untapped potential would that be? Have you ever thought about what it would be like to have a 20 year old son when you are 48 vs when you are 58? Most players end up as sad players. They realize how empty and hollow and meaningless their flings were. They hated being used as a human...

    Yup, and it's a tendency that needs to be actively gotten rid of too. lol, :beer:

    Monogamy. The idea of loving only one woman all your life?

    IDEA 
    Huh well similar answers apply to both here. This is actually a really difficult issue. Part of it imo is the woman's responsibility to keep her man consumed and in love with her. However, because of the nature of growth the things that made us fall in love back then are different now. So...

    Monogamy. The idea of loving only one woman all your life?

    IDEA 
    Well in all fairness I said monogamy, not marriage. Hedonism does not lead to happiness, its entire premise is basically wrong. If one chases pleasure they need ever increasing amounts of it to be have the same high. Curiously it sounds like the result of a low dopamine system lol. Of course...

    Monogamy. The idea of loving only one woman all your life?

    IDEA 
    @Digamma The 7 year itch is extremely real. Getting past it is a challenge but quite doable too. It's part of why there are renewal of vows and what not, to help fight the 7 year itch. In a sense the man has to make the woman fall in love with him again. It's not that bad really from my...

    Monogamy. The idea of loving only one woman all your life?

    IDEA 
    TRP is a reaction to feminism but ends up in a shitty version of masculinism while still stuck in a feminist paradigm. It's weird really. I'd be very curious about if your sister's ex husband stopped trying much the last 3+ years. In my view it's up to the man to keep the romance alive, first...

    How to win friends didn't do anything for you? :duh: I would reread it again. Small talk is key to connecting with people. Go learn to like small talk. Resting on interests alone will not help you overcome your lack of being able to make friends. I turned small talk into a game which made it...

    IDEA 
    If you want to talk about anything, I'd rather you simply address what I said: "Or just...monogamy lends to more stable families and is good for raising kids for 20 years... " --- Although being a F*ckboi is part of scripted existence too isn't it. It's the focus of plenty of Pop... Or will...

    Yup...tons of TRP rhetoric being thrown around. I've thought about making a thread that dismantles TRP but idk if it's worth the effort. Pretty sure white lies are part of scripted existence As is 'Fake it till you make it'! ;)

    Monogamy. The idea of loving only one woman all your life?

    IDEA 
    Yes it is less about marriage and far more about monogamy and the stability it provides the children, and what the mindset of people that prefer stable relationships also bring with them. Probably the #1 thing a man needs for monogamy is high self control, even more so than excellent...

    IDEA 
    Not necessarily at all. Typically one party had lots of relationships, the other had a few. However I've seen couples where both dated a lot of people before going back to each other too. I've actually not seen any case of people I know personally where the guy had 0 success, but I don't keep up...

    Or just...monogamy lends to more stable families and is good for raising kids for 20 years... It's almost like there's sometimes wisdom in why a F*ck load of people do some things? Unless you'd like to present an argument that single parents raise children better... ;)
