My AFC Cousin Makes Me Sick

[Young OG]

Sorry, I just feel like ranting about my cousin. He is a year younger then me (32). He has had only 2 girlfriends in his life and I'm pretty sure those are the only lays he has ever had. His Facebook posts make me want to throw up. He just got his second girlfriend (from OLD) in his life and he posts the most afc/beta stuff I've ever seen on facebook. Right when he started dating her a couple months ago, he's checking in at expensive restaurants with her and posting pics of her that say "my beautiful girlfriend." I just now saw that they exchanged Christmas gifts early and he bought her a diamond necklace! Once again he says "my beautiful girlfriend." He's clearly put her on a pedestal and is showering her with gifts and compliments. I don't see this lasting. He will probably get dumped or cheated on. I'm just glad I know what I know now. Don't be like this guy.

End of Rant.

They will all have to learn it the hard way like most of us. There is no way you can change his mind.

The only way to learn anything, (unless you're only pretending to learn to get some douchebag teacher off your back ) is to have GOAL, try to get there and FAIL. The best you can do is just wait for him to FAIL and then help him learn from his mistakes, ideally by sharing how YOU learned from YOUR similar mistakes. Otherwise it will come across as a lecture / unasked for advice, which never works no matter what.

Unfortunately, he is the kind of guy who wouldn't want to hear it. He would never listen to me about women and dating. He's kind of cvcky but to nice to woman.

Not all people want to get unplugged from the Matrix. Usually when they get a big hit , that's when they starting to change.
As taiyuu said , wait till she dumps him and then show him the door of how a male should behave.

If he don't want to then let him be an eternal afc. It's his choice.
