Women DO have at least some capacity for reason

dude, you just proved what i said.

the input is fine. its the output where they are screwed.

Okay, I follow you. Makes sense. It just seems to me like it's more in the processing stage that they get screwed up. Input - understood. Processing - bombarded with too much conflicting "logic"...can't process, Output - "I'm totally, utterly confused!"

OK, she dumped you for pork chop? She might be thinking you're too good for her, and I'm serious. Not every women has this outstanding self-esteem and thinks she can marry up. Some do, many don't.

Nah, not this one. She's pretty well put together. Makes tons of money. I didn't see any inferiority issues, but I'm sure you are right about some women.

So when I do find a decent chick I want to settle down with I should be good to go, I suppose.

well one would think so...

OK, that may be a good answer from someone who feels that he is not at the point in life, but if she is at point, then she has every right to lose interest - even if she is still attracted to you (and you may be overplaying just how attracted she was to you.) Some dude came along and gave her the answer that she was looking for.

I think you have the girls confused.

The chick who asked me "where do you see this going" was the LTR, and she was TOTALLY attracted to me, even through the end. Up until I dumped her and she found a new man, then I was a piece of sh!t, but that's another story....

The one who is getting married, there WAS a dude who came along while we were seeing each other, but we weren't even technically in a relationship and had never had any kind of serious relationship talk.

This isn't 100% true but I'd say that it is 90% true: Women are givers to their children, now and/or future unborn. She cares about them more than she cares about herself. But when it comes to men, women are takers. Their primary biological drive is to secure resources AND the best sperm for themselves and their children. If that means nabbing a chode for a LTR (to provide) and having flings with a bad boy alpha dude (for the sperm), a lot of them will do it.
