| 4 | The guy didn’t confirm the date. So I didn’t meet up. What’s your policy on this?Don't waste that much time on a first date. No guy is worth all that extra effort, show up being the daily version of you maybe with 10% because if you show up looking your absolute best you either have to maintain that standard or it's only downhill. Save something to surprise him with later if he's worth it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/05/20 02:59 PM |
| 7 | The guy didn’t confirm the date. So I didn’t meet up. What’s your policy on this?Ditto. When single I refused to meet men who did not reconfirm the night before or morning of. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/05/20 04:31 AM |
| 7 | Scrote doesn’t think he has to tell his girlfriend of 11 months that he never plans on marrying herThis is why as women we need to be upfront with our expectations when we meet someone. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/05/20 07:11 PM |

| 10 | How close is "Why men love bitches" to FDS ideology?When I was dating, I found that by being clear about wanting a relationship and to settle down made the guys who wanted the same to step forward and the guys who didn't went away. We shouldn't have to trick a guy into a relationship. If he wants one, he'll know and will be looking for someone who wants the same. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/05/20 11:57 PM |
| 6 | The Myth of the Male Bumbler: how men take one of our culture's most muscular myths — that men are clueless — and weaponize it into an alibiI hope you cross post this in 2x. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/05/20 08:57 PM |
| 47 | You do not “attract” abusive men. You are not responsible for your own abuse.My mom used to tell me women in our family had the "bad boy gene" where we were only attracted to and attracted bad men. After my 3rd abusive relationship she was repeating that advice and I finally lost it. I told her no, this family keeps teaching their daughters to tolerate bad behavior and normalizing it. That's not ok. If you don't want a bad man then learn what one looks and acts like. I took my own advice and am now with a wonderful man. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/05/20 07:13 PM |

| 6 | A “HVM” in his late 30s who has never been committed is a blaring red flag.100% true. I've said it before, a 30s divorced man who has grown from his experience is 1000% better than a 30s man who had never lived with a woman. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 30/04/20 02:59 AM |
| 5 | My friend is seeing a guy who keeps sanitary pads at his house for his female friends and she thinks this is a HVM traitWhen I was first dating my now husband, I found a small box of tampons in his bathroom. I asked him wtf, is this from your ex? He explained he read somewhere it was a considerate thing for men to do in case there was ever a woman over who needed one. He has some female friends and knows several married guys with wives so once I understood it was fine, but it sure threw me at first. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/04/20 09:08 PM |
| 6 | Is it just me or...When I had my first date with my now husband, we just talked for 5 straight hours over beers and mac n cheese. At the end of the night he asked if he could kiss me goodbye. The good men are out there, just harder to find. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/04/20 07:18 PM |
| 23 | The proof is in the pudding, ladies. Don't focus so much on HVM qualities that you miss what's actually important for a LTR/marriage. Here are some examples I've found in my last two relationships, please post yours as well!When I was dating my now husband, the first time I left clothes at his house and I came over next they were washed and either hung up or put in a drawer he had cleared for me. I never even asked. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/04/20 01:03 AM |
| 6 | Yes Ladies, You CAN be raped and not realize it until weeks later: A Profile of a GraypistYour so right about us needing to stick together. I've had male "friends" who have left me drunk around predatory men and it really sucked to realize they didn't care about what happened to me. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/04/20 12:00 AM |
| 2 | Why are people so weirded out by the idea of celibacy?Thanks, I'm happily married now to a lovely man who matches my libido. I had the same struggles as you though where I wanted sex but so many available men were just not attractive to me that I'd rather go without and be frustrated. It was definitely a lose-lose situation. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 16/04/20 11:58 PM |

He'd been standing on the periphery of our group the whole night barely talking to anyone. The first time I said, hey I got her thanks bye, he kept following and trying to grab her. The 2nd time I repeated myself. He kept coming. The third time I stopped, looked him dead in the eyes and said very loudly we are going home, you … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/04/20 05:36 PM |
| 1 | Why are people so weirded out by the idea of celibacy?For sure. I think we still need to be focused on talking care of ourselves first, and only having sex because we want to, not because we feel pressured into it or feel the need to please someone else. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/04/20 01:21 AM |
| 17 | It's insane that because of porn, rough sex is now the norm, and "vanilla" sex is an "other" only girlfriends deserve, according to the manosphere. “Not being abused like a porn actress” is now a sexual special request.I've dated both sides of the political spectrum and never had a partner push for anything beyond light spanking. The stuff I hear you guys talk about seems just completely wild to me. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/04/20 06:00 PM |

| 2 | Why are people so weirded out by the idea of celibacy?I can't relate to wanting celibacy because I have a high libido and need a lot of physical touch. That said I do not judge anyone else for abstaining and even admire it. In my case I'd have FWBs but if he wasn't putting equal effort in to me then he was out the door. Did this mean I had slightly more partners than others? Yes, but just like celibacy I don't think I should be judged for doing what I want. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/04/20 12:07 PM |

| 26 | I had a phone screen with a LVM — always ask if he has kidsI was ok with men having kids because I had kids but I was super wary that he was looking for a replacement mom/babysitter for when he had his custody time. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/04/20 11:55 AM |
| 11 | Don't let friends who settled drag you down.I think the perspective that I was desperate hurt the most. It was like yes I'm actively looking for a partner, but also yes I do have standards for men, seemed to confuse a lot of people. Wanting to be with someone does not equal desperation. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/04/20 02:37 AM |
| 11 | Don't let friends who settled drag you down.The one I stopped talking to I definitely felt like she thought she was better than me, but I'm not sure if that's because I was single. The other friends were mostly desperate to hook up their two single friends even though it defied logic otherwise. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/04/20 02:33 AM |
| 17 | Don't let friends who settled drag you down.I asked the married friends why they hadn't left their husbands for the nice guy since he was so great and I got silence. When they tried to push it again later I suggested since the dude was owed pity sex that they ask their husbands if they wouldn't mind an open marriage so they could hook their buddy up. They also didn't care for that. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/04/20 02:19 AM |

I mean there was that one guy, but he's the only one I've ever heard of. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/04/20 10:11 PM |
| 4 | "mEn dOn'T hAvE a WaLL"This is so true. When dating I would not respond to men over 40 who had never been married. Divorced men will almost always have better mental growth and increased maturity than a man who has never had to compromiseand be a partner. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/04/20 08:04 PM |
| 2 | Is it bad that I’m waiting for him to get in touch so I can call him out on his shit?It's in your best interests to literally forget he exists. Distract yourself by increasing your self worth please. Don't waste another second acknowledging he takes up space in this world. All it does is keep the wound open in you. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/04/20 08:00 PM |

Problems in marriage only to tend to get worse, if it wasn't fixed before marriage then it will continue and always keep getting worse as people get set in their ways. At his age he is beyond change.

| 14 | I need a little support, my husband and I are at odds sexuallyThere isn't a way to talk about this. He chose you because you will be/are easy for him to manipulate. He will continue to watch porn no matter what, even if you lose your mind over it.

| 62 | I need a little support, my husband and I are at odds sexuallyLet me make sure we understand. 1. An adult man preyed on you when you were underage. 2. He groomed you to think this age gap is normal before you had any adult experience dating. 3. He lied about his sex drive, which dissapeared once he had legal power over you. 4. He doesn't care about if what he does affects your sense of self worth? Does this sum up everything correctly? | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 08/04/20 05:14 PM |

| 10 | Compromising vs SettlingThis was well said. In my relationship I compromised on some things and that's ok. However I never settled (again) for bad sex, disrespect, and neglect.

| 23 | When will he commit?I don't advocate for anyone under 25 getting married. Your personality isn't finalized until around that age and mens aren't either. You will change and grow over the next several years and might become someone totally different. This why most marriages where at least one partner is under that age fail. If you're in love and it's forever, then there is no reason not to wait. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/03/20 04:30 PM |

| 2 | I feel like all HVM used to be LVM. Thoughts?All humans can get better, but they have to know what they did wrong first before they can change. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/20 08:30 PM |
| 3 | Looking for advice on dating youngerAnyone within 3 years of your own age up or down is pretty much the same age. Seems like most men who will settle down first want to between 28-36 so I think that is prime marriage time for men. Why care if he's 5 years younger if he's the best man and the best match you've found? You may never find that again. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/20 08:19 PM |
| 9 | Honestly, what he said ‼️I was watching the Madame CJ Walker story on netflix and at one point her FIL asks her husband if he knows why his marriage to the husbands mother lasted so long. The husband replies that it was because she was a good woman and they were in love. His dad says no, I stayed married because I wanted to be married. i.e. don't make stupid decisions if you want to keep your wife. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/20 05:36 PM |

| 6 | Giving you his number instead of asking for yoursOh no. I'm sorry. There are good men out there but what's really hard is finding a good man who is also the right man for you. Set your standards, be clear with them, and just know you might have to meet a lot of guys before you find yours. I dated for two and a half years straight before I met my husband. It was so much work and I had to deal with some real bs but now I'm insanely happy. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/03/20 05:10 PM |
| 3 | Yet another reason never to “date down”... If you, do they can’t handle it. Never settle.Not only that, if his friends or family question why you're with him by saying anything along those lines of being too good for him then run! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/03/20 05:02 PM |

| 2 | “Synonyms” for HVM and LVM??I just quality vs. Non-quality. Quality equates value as a person without bringing money into it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/03/20 04:59 PM |
| 10 | Giving you his number instead of asking for yoursSadly the truth is many men will want to use you for sex. However by watching his behavior before you have sex you can hopefully prevent falling for that kind of douche. A man who wants to be with you will respect you, look out for you and make effort to be with you, even without sex. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/03/20 04:57 PM |

| 39 | Giving you his number instead of asking for yoursHim giving you his number is making the first move, and in a respectful way so you don't feel pressured to give your personal contact info to someone you aren't sure about. Him giving you his number gets him bonus points in my book. Since he made the first move you can later send a "had fun, nice to meet you" text if you want to and he'll pick it up from there. Dating is a tennis game, not wall ball. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/03/20 04:45 PM |

If you match and hit it off, say, I don't want to waste anyone's time, what are you looking to get out of here? If they say "you first" just unmatch and move on.

| 11 | Did plastic surgery help with your self esteem and dating?Small breasts are beautiful and there's a whole lot of men who love them or just don't care about size. If there's nothing particularly odd about yours (two different sizes, deformed, etc.) Then I'd like to encourage you, with love and respect, to seek counseling first for a few months to decide if this is something you really want or if this is something society has made you feel like you should have. I don't think there's anything wrong with PS, as long as you're doing it for reasons in your b… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/03/20 05:03 AM |
| 4 | Ladies that do OLD- how often do men...Don't go on tinder or hookup sites. Say flat out that you're only looking for a relationship and to settle down. The fuckboys will mostly filter themselves out. I met my husband on old but it took me 2 years of OLD. We're both introverts so there's just no way we'd have met in person. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/03/20 04:57 AM |

| 6 | NO EXCUSES - Date Multiple Men Until Commitment is EstablishedI 100% support doing this but to be honest when i was dating I did not have the mental or emotional bandwidth to pay attention to multiple men at the same time. I dated one or occasionally 2 at a time because that was all I could handle. Men are often needy and I just didn't have the patience for it and to do the things important in my life like have friends, hobbies, etc. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 08/03/20 08:10 PM |
| 8 | Cool girl shit on female dominated subsRecently on 2x there was a thread about how the bill should always be split on dates. Pretty sure a man posted it. Anyhow so many commenters saying how they were proud to pay for themselves. When I was dating it was the MEN who taught ME that a man will always pay if he is really in to you. I got some downvotes for saying my piece. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/03/20 04:51 PM |
| 7 | Casual sex wouldn’t be a problem except 99.99% of straight men are TERRIBLE in bedI hope someone xposts this to 2x. More women should read it and know they're not "cool" for tolerating shitty selfish sex and doing so makes things worse for all of us. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/03/20 03:33 PM |
| 16 | I went on my first date in months.I always advocate for giving feedback once. I think you did the right thing for future women he comes into contact with. I know many here don't agree with me, but I feel it's our duty to look out for other women in this way. If he doesn't have a good man in his life to teach him, he'll never figure it out otherwise. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 03/03/20 02:56 PM |
| 7 | Unpopular opinion: If you're dating men in their 20s, pay more attention to their work ethic than their actual incomeAbsolutely agree. A good man is determined by how he treats you and others, not how expensive of a date he can take you on. Effort > cash, especially in your 20s. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 03/03/20 02:43 PM |

If he wasn't right for you and he let himself out the door, good. Makes your life easier. If he didn't appreciate you then at least now there is room for someone to come along who can. Truthfully sometimes two good people are just not right for each other too and there's nothing wrong with that. The best thing to do is pay no attention to what he's doing and just focus on making yourself hap… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/02/20 07:02 PM |
| 3 | Doing the workI agree with you. I came here for the pro female attitude but just keeping seeing the men are trash memes. I'm sorry a lot of guys are shit but I want to build myself and others here up, not waste energy tearing down men who don't deserve my time. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/02/20 04:22 AM |

But then I realized, the next guy I date might be awesome to me because he learned from the woman who came before me. In that way she's a hero and I owe my happiness in part to her. I decided if my ex does not put the next woman through the hell I went through then I have contributed to womankind. The truth is adults don't change unless there are severe consequences and his consequence is he lost me forever. I should hope that humbles the shit out of him a… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/02/20 04:23 PM |
| 13 | How to sniff if he's sexually competent: the quiet confidence of BIG DICK ENERGYMy SO is amazing in bed, but he's also an awkward introvert that is not social, outgoing, athletic, energetic or witty. The most important factors for me were that he listened to what I wanted, rather than those jackasses who would try to tell me how I should like it or just ignored me when I gave them direction. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/02/20 04:16 PM |
| 3 | I’m starting to worry that most HVM are off the market by their late 20sI don't have all the answers but I do know you have to be willing to be up front with your expectations and a good man will be receptive to them. I don't see why a man can't change if he wants to, we've all seen a guy clean up his act after he gets dumped and becomes better for the next woman. But you have to have your boundaries, explaining something more than once to a person is not worth it, and some behaviors are unforgivable no matter what.

| 10 | I’m starting to worry that most HVM are off the market by their late 20sMen are people and can grow and change. Some men I would have never spoke to in their 20s grow into good men in their 30s. Honestly if over 30 look for divorced men, ones who are not bitter and own their part in the relationship failure, and who are actively working on themselves can be some of the best men. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/02/20 06:02 AM |

| 11 | FDS: If he deserves a mind reader, you do tooAll considerate adults would try to an extent, but there's a scale. Unlocking his door when he opened yours = not a doormat, him expecting you to know what he wanted for dinner when you barely know him = fuck that guy. My point was if he was inconsiderate, before you block you should let him know "hi, this isn't going to work out because you told me to dress up and then expected me to walk through the park in heels for our date. That was inconsiderate. Bye" then block before he either begs apolo… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/02/20 09:27 PM |
