Having a girlfriend in 2023; how do we rate it nowadays? Sign of weakness or sign of power?

I posted something similar buti wanted to isolate the topic .

A few years ago having a gf was the pinnacle of manhood. Marriage already became a slippery slope due to getting divorced raped ,but a gf was seemingly the best of both worlds.

Fast forward to today. Today it seems that a man with a gf,steady ltr, living together ect is looked down on, and that such a man is a beta afc bluepilled bytch by default.

What is what? We all know that getting women is easier than keeping them. In order to keep a woman you have to be a solid and desirable man .

Now it seems like "spinning plates " is the new status symbol. Back then a man who did this was a player entering azzhole territory, untrustworthy ect. A man who did this seemingly had a harder time landing actual quality women.

How do we rate having a GF now?

I used to spin plates at the same time about a year ago. It had its enjoyable aspects, especially outside of sex. I miss the freedom of weekends when I could do whatever I wanted. However, overall, it wasn't as great as people make it out to be. It mostly became a waste of time and money because I ended up dealing with women, I didn't want a serious relationship with, or just in the early talking stages.

Sure, I had a few casual flings within a short period (like fvcking 5 different women in a 2 days span), but in the end, it felt empty because it was just about sex. Now, having a girlfriend is much better. We can do more things together as a couple, and I can invest more in the relationship instead of keeping my distance. It feels more fulfilling and meaningful compared to the fleeting encounters of my past. Dating is full time job and it's whether you see wasting your time and money on dating one person or meaningless sex as which path you pick, not what you think some dude trying to get likes and donation on YouTube is doing.

I would recommend every man to spin plates to vet for a relationship because you will not settle for a girl out of scarcity and you will get it out of your system.

It depends. If it’s obvious from the way you look & act that you could get a GF. People will assume you either have a GF or are a player. If If there is some doubt as to your prowess with the ladies, having a GF is a positive.
