Terms

[wifehunter]

The power struggle is basically the female getting you to relinquish your power by agreeing to her terms. It's a good thing to know your terms and what you want, and in makes it easier to stick to your guns. (ability to walk away)

From my experience, most terms females deal out always favor the female, and are never a "win-win", with both sides getting a good deal.

Your terms, assuming they are well thought out and hopefully a win-win scenario, are non negotiable.

It's the only way anything will work.

"and he will rule over you..."

If you dont mind, I'd like to add - have standards and stick by them. It's better to pass a sub standard female up, making way, making room, for a 'standard or above' female to enter your life. If you accept garbage into your life the universe will continue to send you garbage until she knows you have learned your lesson. I believe that, once you refuse to accept garbage, the universe will reward you with attention from better quality females. This will become what you attract. Dont believe the scarcity hype.

It's true... Throw out the garbage to make room for the good stuff

The space needs to be there, for it to happen.

A man loses the game the minute he cares more about "making it work" than the woman does.

Women are really good at manipulating men into believing they're "lucky" to be with her when the opposite is actually true. Women are the ones that need the "relationship" not men. However, women have such extensive pride and ego that many of them would rather lose a great man than feel insecure. This willingness to "throw it all away" on a whim is how they control weak and insecure men.

Part of it comes from the fact that so much of a woman's power comes from her sex appeal which is always fleeting with age, while the man's sex appeal often rises with age. In order to balance this out.. most women attack a man's self-esteem in a LTR through constant sh!t-testing to reduce him to a co-dependent white knight faggot slave. This is the only way she can feel "secure". She will accomplish this with social pressure and the threat of abandonment.

Why do you think so many men are more focused on "keeping a woman" than keeping their own dignity? Its because most men live in constant fear that a woman might abandon them at any time for any reason. This is how women control the relationship. In reality, women don't abandon you that easily if they are invested enough AND they have "hope".

Women are future oriented and future focused (even more after age 25). The key to keeping them around is giving them "hope" which is every easy to do, but not always worth doing as it makes for VERY bad breakups. I prefer spinning plates and keeping things shallow. Much less drama.

Indeed there is no struggle as long as you refuse to fight. Woman doesn't live up to my standards will mean there's nothing left to discuss. One of the most important standards is fairness.
