Traceycprc Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Not true, I would take love and good treatment all day long and I have! If a woman is happy and falling for a guy, no other man will even be a blip on the radar. I loved a guy for a year that couldn't even afford to buy me a coffee some days, but we had the best times just doing the simplest things together, I loved him to bits. Money trumps love and good treatment. Always. There are no exceptions. Welcome to the sexual marketplace.
Toodaloo Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Money trumps love and good treatment. Always. There are no exceptions. Welcome to the sexual marketplace. Money trumps love when you date superficial people... The rest are more normal and practical and more concerned about the other person having personality traits such as honesty, decency, integrity etc... 5
JuanDelToro Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 Women don't love men, they can't, it's not in their nature. Yes they can be attracted to a man, have nice warm feelings and want to be with him, but love is a completely different thing. It's a men's thing. A man would climb mountains and walk through fire for a woman. On the other hand a woman would not do the same. This is a fact backed by statistics. When hard times hit a relationship it's the woman that gives up first. In that regard, it's easier for women to move from one man to another. They will always seek for the provider, the one that feel more secure with, a leader, because thats what they value higher. In today's society that translates to men with more money. My grandfather use to say "you'll lose a lot of money chasing women but you'll never lose women chasing a lot of money". Very insightful of the current paradigm I would say. Women are archetypically superficial when it comes down to partner selection. Simply put, women and men think much differently and value different things by nature. The OP had his man ego hurt for losing to a higher status (by societal perception) guy. That's the main source of his pain and not for losing the girl.

When hard times hit a relationship it's the woman that gives up first. You have got to be kidding me. I have seen far more women stand by their man through years or even decades of severe illness and disability culminating with eventual death, than the opposite. My grandmother changed my grandfather's diapers for 10 years before he passed away. I've seen women spoon feed their stroke victim husbands daily for years. Not to say their husbands wouldn't have done the same for them,but statistically end of life care is mostly done by women because women typically outlive their husbands. I'm not really sure what type of women you have in your life to give you the impression that you have. Edited August 6, 2016 by Elswyth 4
JuanDelToro Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) Yet all these women that you refer to, spoon feeding their incapacitated husbands feel nothing but a deep resentment for them. The reasons why they stick around are other than actual unconditional love. You accept or not, that doesn't change the fact that a woman's psyche is much different to that of a mans. A woman has the capacity to unconditionally love her offspring and her offspring only, she's programmed by nature in this way. With anyone else her "love" is conditional and opportunistic. This isn't my twisted impression of women as your comment suggests that it is, it is the view of modern psychology in gender traits and archetypical differences between sexes. It's nonsensical for such fact to bother you or to be taken as an insult, because it translates to women being emotionally stronger against men. In today's society were self-centrism is encouraged and celebrated, especially in relationships, the emotionally strong people have the upper hand and cope with less damage. Let me ask you this. It is said that a woman, given time, she'll get over a breakup completely. A man on the other hand never does. He'll never be able to get over a woman he once loved completely and he'll be hurting for the loss till the end of his days. Do you believe this to be true? Edited August 6, 2016 by JuanDelToro 1
Els Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 How can you possibly know what they are or are not thinking? What other reason is there to stick around changing your partner's diapers for years other than love?? They stand to gain nothing from what they do. The partner sure as hell isn't providing for them or taking care of them at that point of time. Breakups are a different story entirely. Healthy PEOPLE, both men and women, eventually do get over a breakup, even if it takes years. I know plenty of men who have recovered from a tough breakup. Because they know it is self defeating to try and cling to someone who doesn't love you back. Not being able to get over a breakup has nothing to do with unconditional love. 3

No. Modern gender studies are almost invariably biased according to their source anyway. OP, if you are still agonising now over what could have been after a 2.5 months fling, you need to do some introspection as to your expectations of what constitutes a relationship at all. Also, it might simply be the case that the other guy's personality (it matters to some people) is better suited to hers, regardless of his looks or riches. Some good looking, wealthy guys also happen to be good guys; I know because I've met a couple. 4

Some good looking, wealthy guys also happen to be good guys; I know because I've met a couple. From what I've learned rich guy is actually a great guy, with a great personality. And possibly better suited for her. He can provide excitment, life experiences, has the resources and capabilities to wow her. Things i could never offer in such a short period of time. In fact he actually wisked her off to Florida this week. Typical date for him. Every girls dream...eh? ..

Not necessarily the bit about being wisked to Florida for a date (a picnic somewhere secluded within walking distance of home for me), but the bit about the great personality and being a better match, yeah... Take from this what you will...
