I've heard a great deal of stories where women in a LTR leave their BF for a DJ, and in a few weeks or months are back with the old BF. I've seen it countless times first hand where a guy was living a near flawless DJ lifestyle, and in a short time the girl is back with her ex. Rare is the story where a woman leaves the AFC and stays with the DJ for long. Why is that?
I used to think, "Guy #2 isn't man enough, if he were the girl would surely stay with him!" but now I wonder if that's true. Maybe life with a DJ is just too damn difficult for most women to handle. Before you start a flood of "white knight, AFC isms," hear me out.
If a true DJ is focused on developing himself and his life, women are left as an afterthought. The vast majority of women I know aren't used to this. If they really want to be desired over all else, that just won't happen with a DJ, and the safety, security, and mindless worship from an AFC would seem the better option.
If a man isn't focused on women, he most likely has a self-serving (fun and interesting) lifestyle. Fun life+ little interest in settling down= women go crazy. That man would have the world of women open to him, so a potential partner knows how many competitors are out there, and also how easily replaceable she is. Knowing you're not a special unique snowflake is something few women want to admit.
Most of us on this site are constantly advising that men guard their lives, happiness, finances, emotions, health, social status, and general well being against any threats to those arenas. What threatens them all more than a woman? Knowing that: aren't we entering the dating world denying women all these things that the average AFC lavishes on them? In essence, we are doing exactly what we blast so many feminist articles for advocating, "That you like me for me, never expect to change me, and only want to be with me for the joy of being in my company."
That's a tall order to ask a woman to handle. Especially if she just left a relationship where everything was presented to and sacrificed to her, she was elevated to a goddess status, and every whim was indulged in. Sh!t, who wouldn't want that? Isn't that what we expect our women to do for us?
I don't think some women can handle all that. So we get labeled as heartless @ssholes, users, manipulative playboys, and still the women flock to us. Maybe a woman needs a certain mindset or life experience to be able to live with a DJ. Why go for the challenge when there's a safe, predictable, and easy (albeit less satisfying) option right next door. That's why we need to be choosy to find women who will take that risk for the adventure of life. Women who can live by the quote, "Don't be afraid to give up the good for the great," just as we do.
If you can't live by that, say hi to your ex for me because we are not gonna work out.
