I don't necessarily disagree, maybe I'm taking it out of context, but which category do I fall in then?Men only get into these "relationships" for consistent access to sex, reproduction, social status OR because they have insecurity issues.
I know some men do relationships, and some men will spin plates until they die. I agree, and understand both choices. I've done both. Whatever works for you, works in my opinion.
I'm in a relationship currently. I've banged plenty of women before my girlfriend. I have got, and can get, regular sex with or without a relationship. I've dated her for 2+ years but I wouldn't plan on having kids with her (or anyone) until my mid-to-late 30's when I've accomplished my goals. She does not have any significant social status. And the last thing I am is insecure.
She was who she is before I met her. Nursing student who studies every hour she isn't sleeping or in class. Smart either money. Doesn't drink, doesn't keep guys as friends. Does sh!t without being asked and frequency of sex has not decreased during the past 2 years. We only see each other 5-7 days a month.
Does she get emotional? Fvcking rights she has her days.. she's a woman. But I don't argue. You can't argue logic and reason with emotions, so I don't. You don't fuel an emotional fire, it quickly burns out. And unlike a majority of women, she can pinpoint and apologize for what caused her emotional behaviour rather than blame me (stressed from exams, argument with a friend, and just simply being hungry). I don't take sh!t from her, and she doesn't take sh!t/resources from me.

I was spinning plates and using game when I met her and I accepted her offer of exclusivity after banging her for a couple months simply because there was nothing about her I felt like needed to be changed for an LTR, and she wasn't a headache like most women I've encountered.
Do I expect to be with her forever? No. Is she a unicorn? Probably not. Will she ever fvck me over? I don't know. What if she cheats tomorrow? I'll be spinning plates tomorrow.
So where do I fit in if it's not any of the above (according to Poon Kings reasons, however I do agree they are why most men are in relationships)?
Or do we become pessimistic/negative and start to question her "mileage" (which I don't know, and don't care to ask) or her "attractiveness"?
When can we accept that, for some men, LTR's can work if they're not a complete idiotic moron about it.
I banged 20+ women before I was 21. Sex is fun, but a woman needs more than a fun box between her legs to get in an LTR with me. Bring something to the table or stay the fvck away from it. The pusuit of sex alone no longer interests me. Do I crave it? Yeah I crave busting a nut once in awhile. Do I have urges to bang other women? Yep, as a male, I am hard-wired this way. But if a random girl can only offer me sex then she really can't offer me anything. I lust more for success and self-growth than sex lately.
I personally think a lot of men on this forum think that this forum is exclusively about getting sex. I believe in the bigger picture, it's about self-growth and insight through other's experiences. I have been a reader of this site for years and attribute my relationship working the way it has based on what I've learned.
I think a lot of men go overboard with this cynical proposition that ALL women are inherently evil b!tches. So are your mom and daughters cvnts too, or are they exceptions because they didn't lead you on and break your heart? Is your dad a phaggot for getting married? I find it easier to accept women are women, men are men. Why be bitter about the differences? When it comes to helping guys who eventually want LTR's, there's a difference between enlightening men on how women work, and brainwashing them into hating women or developing cynicism towards women to the point where they are unable to ever have a relationship that benefits the man. Men will end up subconsciously acting in a way that attracts exactly what they're trying to avoid and then act surprised when it happens before asserting they were "right about her" all along, or become to overprotective of their feelings and "next" a girl because she chews Captain Crunch too loud during breakfast.
I don't believe in a women's happy-ending Disney fantasy either, but I'm also not interested in believing that a smart man cannot have a relationship (whether it lasts or not) that benefits him. You have a CHOICE. Most men, either through lack of insight or plain ignorance, just accept blindly what women they get and then wonder why they get exploited, used, cheated on, dumped, or (my personal favourite) end up with a girl who magically develops BPD.
Nobody is a "beta phaggot" because they're in a relationship. However, it can be potentially a different story depending on why they're in one.

BTW I was incarcerated briefly for a couple months back when I was 18 because of a women's lies before the case was finally thrown out after she admitted she fabricated everything... so I'm well aware of what women are capable of and how society tends to cater to them.
