| 18 | Subtle signs a man is going to be a terrible fatherI dunno if I agree with any of this. (Not in a negative way, I'm just generally pondering!) My husband and I both feel that our educational experiences were... not NOT worth it but like maybe not exactly the right choice at the time. We are absolutely not forcing our children to get a college education and definitely not going to be paying the whole way if they do go. I think we have forced this crazy narrative about what is needed and what is not to have a fulfilling and 'successful' life. We… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/04/22 11:12 PM |
| 12 | 63 year old scrote with 38 year old woman expecting a 7th child together 🤢🤢. Good luck sis!Yup... been saying this for years and it's considered so fucking controversial but like use your brains... sperm are constantly dividing, that is when mistakes happen. We are all born with the eggs we will have, it's a total toss up on what comes up for women but that doesn't change with age. Later pregnancies are just harder on the woman's body but in terms of healthy babies... older sperm is much more of a concern. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/04/22 01:38 AM |
| 2 | Can you be a HVW and date (reasonably) older men?It can happen! You have to vet, just like anyone else of any age. And same! Would basically never encourage anyone to seek it out, but if it's happening... think about it and the possibilities down the line and decide if there is something that will bother you down the line, if so then move on but you gotta know yourself and what you like and want from your life.... which is true when vetting at ANY age. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/03/22 12:06 AM |
| 7 | Can you be a HVW and date (reasonably) older men?My now husband is 15 years older than me, 29 and 44. I would never have thought I would be married to someone this much older than me but it's what happened! I've written about this before in past comments so I won't go into all the details but basically, it works for us and we are very happy. We both know what we want out of our life which includes buying a small house on some decent land where we can grow beautiful gardens with our doggies and raise a couple kids.

Waxing and shaving is fucking exhausting and painful, make up is work, heels and dresses are often painful and or constrictive. The pandemic gave a lot of people time to think about what was actually important to them and it seems she found that all this hullabaloo about meeting feminine standards wasn't it for her.

| 1 | this is why I will never settle for less until I meet someone who loves me and respects our relationship like thisIdk. Having a partner at all inherently makes things more difficult when you are an independent person. Having someone to have to like coordinate with and organize with and plan with and move with. Two people is inherently harder to do those things than just making decisions all by yourself. At least that's been my experience. Idk about this person though! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/03/22 09:33 PM |

| 3 | Baldness is DadnessSome people take things too far... I have to assume some are young or perhaps they feel they've been unfairly judged for aging (which is true for basically all women!) but I don't know how trying to avoid all the things that come with age and trying to fight against the realities of aging is serving anyone... let's all just be allowed to age and show the wear and tear of time and experience, it's a beautiful gift to be able to age. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/03/22 02:26 AM |

It's a major part of me and my life and my values and the way I see the world. To me, it was incredibly important to be able to speak about this with my future husband and I needed him to 'get' it in the way most people don't.

In fact, everyone's hair thins as they age. I don't think it's reasonable for anyone to expect someone to keep the exact same appearance as they age. Hygiene, healthy weight, general caring for yourself, absolutely. But like...

| 2 | Feeling Extremely Disheartened By My Mother Victim Blaming One Of Her Coworkers For Getting RapedI'm so sorry. It's a terrible feeling. Try to treat yourself gently and do some calming and soothing self care things. I don't know your exact situation but I AM sure it's not 'all your fault'. That's not how these things work. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/02/22 03:37 PM |
| 10 | Feeling Extremely Disheartened By My Mother Victim Blaming One Of Her Coworkers For Getting RapedYou are right. Two things can be true. And the nuance is important. It's just a hard thing to reconcile in your own mind when you know you had been willingly engaging in the same behaviors throughout many different circumstances. I think if anything, it just makes me feel sad for my past self. I was going through such a hard time and self harming with all this behavior. I've been out of that for a long time now. I just feel almost motherly compassion for my past sad little self. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/02/22 04:37 PM |

It's from a time period in my life where I was engaging in all sorts of very risky behavior, lots of drugs, lots of alcohol, lots of willingly sleeping around. I read an article about a women who had done sex work and she talked about the like harm you do to yourself. She didn't want to call it rape because it was fully consented to and possibly even sought out, but it can create personal harm on the outset. In this specific time, I feel confident that I was purs… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/02/22 02:54 PM |

| 0 | Discussing future financesThank you for being reasonable on the age gap here. To me 33 and 42 is not really that big. Once you get past your mid 20s and definitely once you are into your 30s you are mentally developed or at least should be if you put in the work in your 20s to grow up. People freaking out about the age gap here just seem young to me I think. 9 years in your early 20s is a lot, not so much when you get to your late 20s and early 30s. BUT! I am in a large age gap relationship myself so I obviously feel ver… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/02/22 09:31 PM |

Unless you've had experience with this kind of lying and conning in your life, it's really a lot harder to sus out than you realize. My late husband was a fucking smooth ass talker. He could get you to buy a winter coat in a phoenix summer and you'd be grateful. Good liars are fucking good.

It's always always better to see a specialist. I haven't seen a general practitioner in ages.

Yeah, a bipolar man who isn't doing everything to take care and treat themselves would be an absolute nightmare. I hope you are doing okay!

| 2 | I Regret my Plastic Surgery: The Impact of the Patriarchy & LVM FathersPerhaps is time and money, it's a greater commitment over your life span if you always and forever engage in makeup practices but you can always decide to not to it anymore. Unlike plastic surgery that is a permanent change, only alterable by additional surgery and very unlikely to ever take you back to your original state.

| 4 | I Regret my Plastic Surgery: The Impact of the Patriarchy & LVM FathersI think it's level of degrees. Plastic surgery is definitely a step up in intensity due to the permanence of it. Like permanent hair removal is more intense than shaving. I stopped wearing make up completely and don't partake in body hair removal because I was never doing it for me. I do get my eyebrows threaded every few months. And I'm in hair school because I freaking love hair changes. I've had all different colors mostly done by myself.

| 6 | Average "Dating" Time Before Engagement in the Early 1900s: Two WeeksThey would get engaged. Not marry. Engagements meant you could spend more time together and a wedding would be planned etc which took time. And engagements could be broken. It's just a point that it really should not take years for a man to figure out if he wants to be with you. Months at the most, I think. Now, whether you need longer or want to take longer to be sure, fully support that! Women should be more judicious and logical and practical about these things. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/01/22 08:52 PM |

It's a lot of work but I do like the idea of having the same name as a family with children and I know this man will freaking do all the work for me if I even casually mention I want it done but it's too much work, point being, he just wants me to be happy and does anything to make that so. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/12/21 08:49 PM |

Truly can't thank y… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 08/04/21 01:44 PM |
| 71 | Who else can relate? My last ex once ranted at me for 19 minutes straight without taking a breath.Yup. Not knowing or believing the level of lows. My ex was an addict. I believed he wanted to live a different life and then I went to support groups, I read books, I went to therapy.... I believed there were just setbacks, a normal part of recovery. No. He just said what he thought I wanted to hear and then did what he wanted. I'm incredibly traumatized from the relationship. He was sexting other women and making plans to meet up with an ex two months after we got married and so I said enough. … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 08/04/21 12:18 PM |
| 55 | Yes, women can be pornsick too.I feel you. When I use to watch porn I could get off in less than 2 minutes. But now, I have to make an event of it. In fact, I started calling it "making love to myself" For me, it helps to think of it as something special, I go slow, take my time, like literally try to slowly get myself turned on with gentle touches on my legs and just allow myself to get in the right head space. With that, I don't do it as often anymore. It's not an every night thing. In fact it's maybe twice a week on a good… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 31/03/21 01:47 PM |
| 1 | Is always skipping foreplay a red flag?I wouldn't totally write it off!! It took me until this year to discover some pleasure from penetration... But I figured it out using a dildo and my hands but all alone. But I also think I just started to develop more sensation over the years. My point, is be open to it but you don't need a man to explore it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/03/21 04:57 AM |
| 3 | Is always skipping foreplay a red flag?Yeah! I'm bisexual so I recalibrated my idea of sex a long time ago.... Going down on me IS sex. Fingering me IS sex. In fact, it's the best part of sex. Maybe don't even being your dick over here actually...I'm good without it haha | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/03/21 08:48 PM |
| 2 | 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮Im glad you really liked it! But just as a warning for others, it has eucalyptus oil in it and it would burn my fave every time I used it. I was so bummed because I don't even have particularly sensitive skin but it was a no go for me! I use the fragrance free hydroboost gel-cream and then top it with la posay roche Lipikar Balm at night for the extra hydration. Working well so far! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/02/21 05:09 PM |
| 10 | Neurodivergents & the Manic Pixie Dream Girl TrapAs a bipolar bisexual woman... Yes. To absolutely all of this. My god. Im not here to make your life interestingggg or exciting or change your life and give you passion or direction. Like I'm fucking amazing and super fun and I know it. But I'm also difficult and intense and can be very hard to be with. I'm a full complete person with all the ups and downs but maybe more extreme. I'm not some ideal version of something to make your life better. Gosh. I was dating a guy in the fall and when I end… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/01/21 09:08 PM |
| 5 | Do Men Care if You Come?This! I squirt but it's NOT an orgasm. So many partners, men and women, love love love the visualisation of like something tangible happening when they are penetrating me but like... It's not an orgasm, it is just a small little release, mostly just makes me super tired and dehydrated and leaves a massive freaking wet spot to deal with. I hate it. I'm actually about to have a conversation about it with the guy I'm seeing before we actually have sex so he understands. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/12/20 03:33 PM |
| 2 | It's okay to outgrow relationships and people. You will meet the right people on your journey. Keep loving and focusing on yourself. Keep growing, creating and living the life that you love and is authentic to you.Sorry but I'll never stop gossiping. I love it. It's the most local form of news and I think it's considered bad simply because it's a common form of communication among women. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/12/20 10:07 PM |
| 2 | Combatting touch starvationHaha so cute. I totally get the electric thing. I needed to get my eyebrows waxed but they needed up not good and I was annoyed but then decided it was actually fine because the human touch was so phenomenal. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/12/20 08:56 PM |
| 1 | It's gonna be a yikes from me sisLiterally had the guy I'm seeing do this to me yesterday. We had a sleepover with no sex and he cuddled me all morning and tickled my back and then since it was such a beautiful day suggested we go to a winery and invited his friends so I could meet them.... ADDITIONALLY, he loves football and has never missed his team playing but skipped it without even really saying anything to me about it. Just would rather spend the day with me since I hate football and refuse to watch. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/12/20 01:19 PM |

| 2 | Anytime I see “hang out” or “coffee” I already know it’s a red flag.So far they have! But... they are on thin ice and I'm looking for unacceptable behavior even more closely than usual. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 31/07/20 03:08 PM |
| 5 | Anytime I see “hang out” or “coffee” I already know it’s a red flag.Honestly, it might turn into that but I just started dating again and I'm using the apps so I'm still testing out some strategies. I think the standard has gotten so low on the apps that men just don't even realize they should ask you to a restaurant. So I'm gonna see how it goes with my ONE time clarification of how I expect to be treated as someone you are interested in. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 30/07/20 12:31 PM |
| 3 | Must read for all women especially childfreeYou are right. There are other options! I will definitely keep them in mind as my life keeps going on. Might start working on a timeline of sorts for myself so I don't miss my opportunity. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/07/20 11:28 PM |
| 74 | Anytime I see “hang out” or “coffee” I already know it’s a red flag.My new reply is: "Usually when someone asks me on a date they make a reservation at a restaurant :)" | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/07/20 04:32 PM |
| 22 | Must read for all women especially childfreeI thought I didn't want children from about 21-24 after having wanted them for years and years. But around 25, I realized I was lying to myself, and I do really want to experience being a mother. I want to experience pregnancy and birth. Women have this incredible ability to grow a human life and it's something I want to experience. I absolutely adore children and want to participate in development of humankind by raising a human being. I get that it isn't for everyone but I've really sat with m… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/07/20 02:33 PM |
| 4 | No social media discussionI got rid of all social media nearly three years ago. (I lurk reddit (FDS only theses days) occasionally, and made an account so I can post here cuz this group is amazing!) I honestly don't remember what I ever got out of it. I have more time for self care and general maintenance of myself, my home, etc. I read again. I have strong, intimate, friendships that span across the world. My friendships are solid because we make time to keep in text and call and visit each other. Our conversations are … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 27/07/20 06:06 PM |
| 24 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered July 15 2020I LOVE FDS. Nothing to add really but my GOODNESS. I took over a year long hiatus from dating (minus two times where I went on a date but I would freak out and get stressed) and I spent the time investing in myself and began researching about healthy relationships, dating, and figuring out what I was really looking for. I found FDS about 6 months ago and it's life changing, revolutionary (but also classic and old school?) I decided I was ready to dip my toes into the dating pool again and loaded… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/07/20 01:50 PM |
