I'm not sure about that. In theory, what if a dude had a well rounded life in all regards except he hadn't got the female issues handled. In that case, you could say the girl did bring happiness because that was a major piece missing. Same with money or a good job or a house, or any of that stuff. You might have everything else together but if that one essential thing is gone that want, then having it will solve your problem.Paintballguy said:
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Do women bring happiness?

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Just like beast said, it still would be an external way of being happy. Maybe it would make you happy that you finally got a girl. But, what if the girl left you? You would end up in the same boat being unhappy.speakeasy said:
It's just important to be happy with yourself. So that way anything extra you get will be icing on the cake.

Well it's like asking a guy who has a well rounded life except for the fact that his malnourished if having food would solve his remainding problem. Sure it would. And what would happen if you took the food away? He'd go back to being unhappy.
See, this is one area where I tend to disagree with the DJ mindset. DJs believe you shouldn't need anyone else and your happiness should all come from within, but you know what, we're human and humans by evolution are social creatures. We NEED other people for mental health. I tend to think that DJs feel it's somehow the territory of betamales to admit such, but I think it's just natural, some people will surpress it just like the voluntarily chaste suppress their needs for sex.

Fulfillment brings you happiness!
Women are part of fulfillment to a man, as a man is fulfillment to her life! Complete fulfillment is when you have offspring and create a family - you have fulfilled your ultimate existence by generating a productive family who are an extension of you!
You can have happiness without a wife or a family but it will be based on a lower level of existence!

I tend to agree, but not everyone values having a family, so what makes them happy will be different than what would make you happy. I think it all comes down to expecations and what you expect out of life for your given age. I can tell you have expectations at 31 that were not present at 21, like having a house of my own for example.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

be hapy inside. Dont depend on other things like women , drugs etc. Only if you find happiness within yourself can you live happily. Don't worry what others think or do.

i'd say if you learn to be good with people and can relate to them in a genuine fashion it will go a long way towards happiness. becuase our well-being depends so much on the quality of our relationships its therefore a neccesity that we learn to interact with others in a meaningful fashion.
when you meet new people, try to draw them out to discover if you click.
its kinda like the whole give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. teach a man to fish and he'll never be hungry thing.
focusing on the women or making a new friend is kinda like begging for fish.
developing the skills and understanding(learning to fish) for attracting women or making new friends will keep you satisfied for life.
and just like with fishing sometimes you get keepers and sometimes you don't. sometimes you have to throw them back.
learning how to "fish" socially should give you a confidence with people similar to what skilled indigenous hunter would have with their environment. they can go on a trek in the wilderness knowing that they have all the knowledge and skills to sustain themselves. you can go out in the world with the confidence that you'll always be nourished with good relationships.

IMO...yes. But it really depends on what you think happiness is and what is missing in your life. There were several good points in this thread but this one stuck out.
If you are currently Mr. Lonely and you are unhappy because of that, then a women could make you happy. Also having somebody to screw doesn't hurt eitherbeastmaster79 said:

With the very limited relationship (both real and imaginary) that I have, I would have to say that feelings tend to polarise or go in more rough jagged ups and downs than without them where it would be more of a straight constant line. Again, I'm in such a way that I can be content with relatively little and have an excellent fuel economy as far as that's concerned.
For example, you may get positive intimate moments which punctuates the relationship experience, but then you wonder if she is really into you (and possibly she wonders that too), and if there is a dissapointment at realizing one party isn't really into the other party then it leads to allot of bad feelings.
So, I think as a net function it is the same with women or without it, except one is more of a straight line and the other is lines which are jagging all over the place. I would still like to get really intimate with a woman at some point in my life though.
But I like in terms of music - some female musical artists make me feel good when I listen to them, notibly Jaci Valesquez, Michelle Tumes and Enya, and Sarah McGlaughlin, since it stands to reason they are women artists, and I feel happy listening to them, then yeah, I think that point would stand there.
I also have some limited friendships with a girl and it feels good that they call me or invite me to go to her coffee shop (even if she is taken), yeah, it makes me feel good to.
So, I think women can make me feel happy, especially when it's all in my mind.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
