AbsoluteChicagoDog,

But he had been using drugs lately and had been fired from his last four jobs

Who could possibly have predicted that relationship would turn out poorly. I’ll never understand why so many women date assholes then get upset that they’re dating an asshole.

potterman28wxcv,

Why getting married at all though? It’s not required for a relationship to prosper. People can live very happily together without getting married

Men (and granted I am male) really do need to drop the alpha male stuff. It’s a shame so many men are drawn into this weird mentality on YouTube thinking that’s what is going to get them a girl… When really it’s the furthest from the truth.

I met my wife at work, made some awkward jokes with her, and eventually asked her out. We split everything a perfect 50/50 and I’m proud to say she is a strong independent woman who definitely does not need me. I can’t imagine the disrespect she would feel if all of a sudden I went all alpha.

AbsoluteChicagoDog,

Also a man, I haven’t tried being an “alpha male” because I’m not a toxic asshole. But being genuine and kind has gotten me absolutely nowhere in the girlfriend department and the fact is the worst men I know all have girlfriends. If I was willing to be like that I probably would too.

bender223,

My guess is that more and more people are realizing that they can still live very fulfilling lives without getting married.

I can’t imagine how weird and scary it is for women to be dating right now, knowing that there are so many far-right extremist men out there, who have a high potential of being misogynistic or even violent.
