| 7 | Celebrity forever girlfriends & baby mama cultureIf you really want your mind blown, keep reading: Nick Cannon has been married once and has seven children with four women. Cannon married singer-songwriter Mariah Carey on April 30, 2008, at her private estate on Windermere Island in the Bahamas. On April 30, 2011, Carey gave birth to fraternal twins: daughter Monroe and son Moroccan Scott. After six years of marriage, the pair separated and filed for divorce in 2014, but reunited briefly in 2015. Their divorce was finalized in 2016. Cannon has… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/08/21 11:18 AM |
| 3 | Old as dirt scrote tries to hit on much younger (and richer) woman at gym. She acts like a Queen 👑YES! Also if you have to tell people you're smart, you're not as clever as you think you are. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/08/21 11:07 AM |
| 13 | The complicated coffee order and the HV and LVM reactions.It shouldn't at all be a problem to like your coffee a certain way, as we all have preferences about everything. I also like my coffee plain and simple, but when we're making coffee for ourselves my fiancé knows that I like mine milkier than his, so will always make sure he puts more milk in mine. I know this is a super tiny thing, but it's these little details that add up to make a HVM in my opinion. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/08/21 09:43 AM |

| 2 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Me too! And I'm so glad that I've got my DMs turned off - I did that a while ago after receiving a message here and there from angry guys. It makes me so happy to know that they'll go and try to message me their hate, and not be able to! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/08/21 10:22 AM |
| 2 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Congratulations to you too! I keep seeing comments pop up then disappear from LVM - the mods are doing their job perfectly! So sad that people feel the need to tear others down on the internet. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/08/21 08:25 AM |

My best friend (the same one he asked about the ring) actually sent me a wedding planner a couple of days after we got engaged, which I'm sure will be super helpful! It tells you what you should plan 12 months before, 10 months before etc... | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/08/21 06:11 AM |

| 5 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Thank you! It was 2 years of OLD, which could get very demoralising at times, but it was so worth persevering and not settling 🥂 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 09:44 PM |
| 5 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Sure - there was one who said I was narrowing my dating pool far too much by wanting someone who would actually go to church with me. Another told me I couldn't possibly have time for dating if I was going to CrossFit 4-5 times a week. Another said it didn't matter that he was Muslim because his previous girlfriend was Catholic and it "wasn't a problem" for them. Those are the ones off the top of my head! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 09:43 PM |

| 25 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Exactly! On the Christian site, I even ended up talking to one guy who turned out to be Muslim. I asked him why he was on a Christian site and he said his last girlfriend was Catholic and it wasn't a problem for them - that's all well and good for them, but it wasn't what I was looking for! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 09:07 PM |

| 38 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!That's ok, I love the stories too and I'm happy to share! 😂 I'd say I knew very early on, we said "I love you" after about 3 months (I said it first!) and also around that time he'd casually mention rings, and say how he thought his last name sounded nice with my first name etc. We were only 3-4 months in so I was still trying not to get my hopes up etc, we still had a lot of getting to know each other to do, but it all felt right, and it just continued to get better.

| 29 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!That's true. I wasn't specifically looking for someone younger than me, but he's definitely been serious about our relationship from the start, and in my view is very high quality! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 06:53 PM |
| 27 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Yeah, I think it makes it more special for me that he chose it especially for me. Before meeting him I'd thought it would be nice to go ring shopping together with any future fiancé, but when I met him I knew he would do a good job choosing a ring himself (with a little guidance! 😂) ☺ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 06:34 PM |
| 36 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!He's 28, so a small age gap, but we're at similar stages of life, so it's not a big deal. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 06:33 PM |

I'd almost given up hope, but I'm so glad I kept my standards high. And although people say it all the time, it's genuinely better to be single than to settle! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 06:32 PM |

| 29 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Thank you! It was a definite non-negotiable for me, and I just wasn't meeting men like that in real life, so decided to try online. But only on a paid site, I briefly tried Bumble, but that was a no-no for me. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 04:54 PM |

| 65 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Thank you! I was looking at rings about 6 months ago, found salt and pepper diamonds and just fell in love with them. Since then I've had my heart set on one, and I'm so glad I told my best friend so that she could tell him! I definitely wanted him to choose the ring, but it's nice to have indirectly influenced what he went for - feels like a team effort! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 04:25 PM |

| 19 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!We started talking online Dec 2019, met for the first time Jan 2020, decided we were official in Feb 2020, then got engaged last weekend (Aug 2021) We're long distance (in the UK about 200 miles apart) and with the pandemic it was really hard to meet up. The first lockdown we didn't see each other for 4 months, and the second lockdown we didn't see each other for 7 months. So it's been a tough 18 months, definitely not a traditional relationship, but we've managed to make it work. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 04:19 PM |

I'm getting overwhelmed with how much there is to think about, but the only thing that really matters is that I get to marry the man I love! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 04:12 PM |
| 9 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Thank you! I know - some men made it sound like I was asking for the absolute world, when I all I wanted was a man who shared my level of commitment to faith. At some points it did get me wondering if I was asking for too much, but I'm so glad I proved them wrong! It wasn't easy to find what I was looking for, but it was so worth it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 04:00 PM |

| 25 | After being told by men more than once that my standards were "too high", last weekend I got given the proposal and ring of my dreams by a man who meets those standards!Thank you so much, your comment actually made me emotional! A couple of years ago I'd pretty much given up on finding someone worth spending my life with, so I'm so happy to have found him! And I agree, I love my ring, I keep staring at it! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 03:46 PM |

I was so much happier when I was single than when I was trying to make things work with guys who didn't reach my standards.

I know OLD isn't always successful, but it did work for me. I used a paid site specifically for Christians as my faith is important to me. I'd spent a couple of years on OLD before meeting my fiancé, chatting to uncountable men, and I'd met up with 6 other guys (mostly just one date and done). Some guys I spoke to said my standards were impossible, mos… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/08/21 02:54 PM |
| 2 | This is nothing but truth.Exactly. And my name is a standard English name, as easy to say as Elizabeth, so it's not like they can't pronounce it. Why is it so hard to be respectful and just call people the name they tell you? 😂 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/07/21 07:11 AM |
| 2 | This is nothing but truth.So annoying. One for me is when I tell people my name and they immediately shorten it - that's not what I asked to be called! For example (not my real name) If I tell people my name is Elizabeth and they straight away call me Lizzy. I think you should call people the name they tell you, even if it is longer to say. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 16/07/21 01:05 PM |

| 34 | A boyfriend you don’t like looking at naked, who STINKS?! I’d rather be single, thanks 😘Because apparently it's "gay" to care about how clean your asshole is and to wash it.

| 14 | If he asks you to change... Sis, be careful of religious men trying to use you as a placeholder girlfriend before they find their final destinationCompletely agree with this. As a Christian, when I was on OLD, it was a deal-breaker for me if the guy wasn't also Christian. I had some guys tell me I was being silly, and narrowing my dating pool so much by not dating non-Christians, but I'm so glad I stuck to my guns. My faith is really important to me, and I couldn't imagine dating someone of a different faith (or no faith). Thankfully I did find a committed Christian man online, and he was so worth the wait, I'm so thankful I didn't settle! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/03/21 09:37 AM |

I set these standards before I even considered dating anyone, and would never have started dating someone to then make them change their ways.

Yes, it seems fast to me, but it's a different situation. Men who date someone for 10 years, then marry quickly after breaking up is because they never truly wanted to marry the first girl. They wanted all the benefits of a relationship, but no proper commitment, until they find the woman they are truly certain about. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/12/20 04:56 PM |

We've misunderstood each other, and had to talk things through, but it's never turned into a fight. There is no need for relationships to be hard all the time. Part of life is that there will be ups and downs, but a good partner should help you through those times, not be the cause of them. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/09/20 09:49 AM |

So, rather than earning your trust, I intend on acting annoyed by your walls/boundaries and prying into your psyche because I feel entitled to your immediate trust.There's a difference between time wasting small talk, and important small talk. I love that my boyfriend asks me how my day was and what I'm up to etc. It's good to have those times of small talk to keep involved in each other's lives.

I disagree with people, but can have a conversation to talk through disagreements. I've been with my boyfriend for 7 months, and so far, no fights. We've disagreed, and misunderstood each other, but we talk through things. We were talking about this the other week and both said we couldn't imagine fighting. As long as we communicate, and talk when we disagree on things, I don't see… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/08/20 12:54 PM |

I'm no supermodel myself, so wasn't overwhelmed with matches, but I had more than enough be able to see that most guys really don't care about talking. Thankfully I'm now dating the most recent guy, but that took 2 years of searching and dead-end conversations. Online dating can work, but only if you're ready to spend a lot of time on it!

As you've already said, sense of humour is a big one, we have to be able to laugh together. Good time management is also important, someone who doesn't waste time, but has a good balance of work, chill time etc. The way he treats other people - does he care about his friends and family?

However, I'm not looking for another dad, I'm looking for a husband, totally different relationship dynamics.

| 3 | The chances that a man will propose drop by 50% after 18 months of a relationshipWell done on getting out, sounds like he was full of excuses not to 'tie himself down'. I knew a couple that were together for years, lived together, had kids together etc, then finally got married after years (I don't know how many, 8? 10? something like that) Then the marriage fell apart within months and they broke up. I don't know what it is about marriage but some men just can't cope with it.

Of course, there are no guarantees, and things may change, but it's nice to know he has that intention at the minute.

| 5 | Handling rejection like a HVM. (explanation in comments)Very good point. We don't live near each other, and had no chance of running into each other (different jobs/social circle etc), so I think he just wanted English friends to talk to. But again, I'm still very much learning from this sub, so I may have missed some red flags! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/06/20 02:53 PM |
| 10 | Handling rejection like a HVM. (explanation in comments)Maybe true - I haven't deliberately missed anything out, this is the whole puzzle! Also, English wasn't his first language (though it was very good) so maybe texting gave him more time to think about what he would say, and he just got nervous on dates. Perhaps talking as friends there would be less pressure. Or maybe I'm just too nice and giving him too much benefit of the doubt! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/06/20 02:46 PM |
| 28 | Handling rejection like a HVM. (explanation in comments)Yeah, I wasn't sure if he would ask me out again, and thought it was better to at least tell him straight away after the second date.

| 26 | Handling rejection like a HVM. (explanation in comments)I see your point - everything in his character pointed to high value too, I just don't want my comments to be super long and detailing everything about this man! Character comes out in the gestures people make, and although I know anyone can fake it for a while (which perhaps he was, who knows) the time I spent talking to him and with him made me see that perhaps he was truly a HVM. Just not the HVM for me. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/06/20 12:50 PM |

Before we met for real, he asked me to be honest with him if I didn't feel a connection, and after the second date I was sure I couldn't see it going anywhere, so sent him this. (I'm green, he's white). He then went on a bit later to say he was so glad he got to meet me, and hoped that I would find someone who was right for me.

Depravity of men, so fucking disgusting.I never get why people have such strong opinions on things that are literally out of our control.

| 2 | Is the anticipated “more intricately woven band” also made of scrote hair?I know, I think I have more issue with the use of the word 'boyfie' than with the hair ring! Ok, no, the hair ring is worse, but who uses the word 'boyfie'?! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/06/20 08:24 AM |
| 1 | Saying so much nothingness and yet so much entitlement, insecurity, bitternessMy boyfriend had the most interesting profile I'd ever read. Not like it was mind-blowingly awesome, just that he'd obviously put time into it, was honest and open, showed his best side, but didn't try to show off. We met on a Christian dating site which allowed your profile to be as detailed as you wanted it to be. Lots of guys barely filled out anything and didn't get a second glance from me, but the fact that he'd actually made an effort to fill it in made me read the whole thing! It's defini… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/06/20 10:56 AM |
| 3 | Guys on OLD asking to prove you're realYes! I would always ask to video chat before meeting up with someone. But it was never straight off the bat, we'd been chatting first, perhaps a phone call or two, then a video chat. Partly to verify they were real (and that I was real for them) and because in this day and age it just makes sense. I've watched far too much Catfish to not ask for video chat first! And every guy I asked had no problem with it, because I asked at the right time and with the right intentions. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/06/20 10:46 AM |
| 2 | Men will use whatever unconventional platform is necessary to message a woman they are interested inJust to give a more positive answer - I'm currently in a long distance relationship (4 hour drive England-Wales, so not overseas long distance) and because of Covid we haven't been able to see each other for almost 4 months. He's been making such an effort to be able to keep in touch. We talk on the phone primarily but also for video chats we have been trying out different options before settling on Skype as the best one. He's also been up for trying different screen sharing options so that we c… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/06/20 10:30 AM |

| 4 | The concept of surprise proposals gets weaponized by LVM and used to keep women on the hookCouldn't agree with this more! I've never understood 'surprise proposals' - I've always thought that couples would talk in depth about marriage beforehand, but I'm learning that is not the case. If things progress with my boyfriend, I would fully expect us to talk about marriage, babies etc, and then plan together the best timings for these. Yes, I would like the actual proposal itself to be a bit of a surprise, but I'd want to be in no doubt that he will propose to me. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/06/20 08:28 AM |
| 2 | Apparently I am too hash. Does that even make sense?I haven't read all the comments so apologies if I'm repeating anyone else. You are definitely not too harsh. If he doesn't even have the common decency to let you know beforehand that he'll be running late, then you don't need to give him the time of day. There is absolutely no excuse for texting someone 15 minutes after the agreed meeting time to let them know you're running late - I think that would already be implied. I'm so glad you hadn't gone at 6 and were waiting for him - I wonder if he … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/06/20 08:22 AM |

| 1 | Some men just want women that come with dramaI've slowly been realising this. I've always felt like I would find a 'great man' fairly easily as I'm what I would consider no-drama, low maintenance, no baggage etc (not judging other women in any way, I'm just a very low-key independent woman - I'm so sorry, that sounds so arrogant and I don't mean to!) but as I've got older (now 31) I've been realising lots of men don't want a strong independent woman, they want the drama etc. I have now this year found what I'm hoping is a HVM, but that was… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 09:41 AM |
| 2 | have you ever changed for a man?I don't think I ever really changed, as I'm only in my first proper relationship now, but I did notice that when I was online dating I would kind of change my habits to match up with the guy I was talking to at the time. For instance: He only sent one long message per day, so I only sent one long message per day He sent many messages with lots of gifs, so I did the same He could only talk after 11pm because of work, so I stayed up late to talk to him Then talking about interests etc, I would som… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 09:30 AM |
| 5 | Advice/thoughts on the 90 days before sex rule?I sometimes watch 'Millionaire Matchmaker' as good trash TV to amuse me, and most of it is absolutely terrible (which I love!) but one good rule Patti Stanger has is 'No sex before monogamy' - so she doesn't put a specific date on it, but until you're certain that you're both invested in the relationship, don't have sex. I myself plan to wait even longer, personal decision to wait until marriage, but you need to find a time when you feel comfortable and ready to have sex, whether that's 60 days,… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 09:23 AM |
| 1 | None of what you said was funny, intelligent or even original! You are the epitome of uninteresting.9 kids by 10 mothers gives away the fact that this is a joke (although i spent a few seconds trying to work it out!) but even so, I wouldn't swipe on a profile that has nothing serious on it - if I know nothing about you, I'm not going to match with you. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 09:12 AM |

| 4 | Best friend is in a relationship with an older man, how can I put my point across without sounding overly harsh?As a Christian this: "Muslim marriages give women more rights compared to Christian ones" is absolutely untrue. Yes, there are some 'Christian' cults where women would have less rights, but I'm what I would consider to be a 'normal' evangelical Christian, and women would have the same rights as men. When I get married, there is no way my husband will be telling me what to wear. You said that she's "umming and ahhhing about keeping the relationship going or not" and that lots of other friends are… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/06/20 08:46 AM |

| 22 | This whole bio is completely disgusting. Throw the whole man out, sis 🤮Many, many red flags here. This is minor, but I always hated it in online dating when a guy would say "Try and guess (insert something irrelevant here)..." or "Bonus points if you can guess my ethnicity"... or something along those lines. Like, I don't know you at all, I'm not going to start a conversation by making assumptions about you, and don't assume that all women are desperate to earn "bonus points" for online dating! They were always an automatic swipe left from me. You just know that yo… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/06/20 08:38 AM |

| 2 | Wondering if I should move in with my guy friend.I feel like something doesn't add up here - you've only been speaking a month, yet in that time managed to get pregnant and need hospitalisation for miscarrying. I didn't think early miscarriages would require a stay in hospital, but forgive me if I'm incorrect. Either way, don't move in with him. One month is not long enough. Also, don't have sex before commitment, and him texting you through your hospital stay is not enough if he's truly interested in you. You haven't put him through hell by b… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 03/06/20 08:46 AM |
| 4 | Reminder: shut up engagement rings are a thing. An engagement does not mean you are immune to LVM behavior. A LVM can be hidden for YEARS under a HVM mask and engagement is the PERFECT time for a man to use "building a life together" to justify LV behavior or pressuring you to lower your standards.Same here. There's much more to a relationship than sex, and for me, it's worth saving for the right person. (Not judging others for having sex, the beauty of it is that we're all entitled to do it the way that works for us) | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 27/05/20 03:01 PM |
| 2 | Do you ladies also have this same problem in the dating world?.... (bonus rant)I experienced this a lot too when I was online dating. I found a motto that really helped me: Stop texting first and see how many dead plants you've been watering. Honestly, I used to get so excited getting replies, until I realised that I was always initiating conversations. It's so worth waiting for someone who actually takes an active interest in you. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/05/20 02:49 PM |
