Oh I agree not every women will seek to destroy her partner on exiting a relationship. The vast majority will not. Admittedly by running PPD we tend to see extreme cases that make the news, your everyday split is just not that interesting. We also only see the situations were the woman has attempted to destroy a guy but has been caught out and failed. These are the vast minority of cases and hence why they are in the news. A woman getting full custody of children, the family home and a substantial chunk of alimony is just not interesting. A woman told to share custody equally, get off her ass and get a job and no money except commensurate child care is.

Your comments above are spot on within the context of TRP philosophy. As a whole TRP is just a collection of tools to add to your own individual toolbox. A key tool to me however is identifying red flags in all kinds of relationships, from plates to friends to work, and deal with them accordingly.

So taking the TRP glasses off when looking at Depp's case, even his friends who are most likely not TRP literate saw the flags. So as you pointed out even the most perceived alpha, like Deppe, can be done over. My point is that if you are here and reading this material you have the tools to mitigate and or prevent this type of thing from happening to you. The choice to use them may not be easy but ultimately the readers choice.
