| 64 | When pickmes and newbies talk about their "HVM"Same. Every time I think I've found a good one, he's the same emotionally avoidant, commitophobic guy, just in different packaging. Clearly I need to go back to the drawing board in figuring out what lesson I need to learn in order to identify them better :/ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/04/21 02:58 AM |
| 261 | TradWife Twitter is Like Watching A Slow Moving TrainwreckHow women can be 100% reliant on a man is astounding. From a self-value standpoint at the very least! The divorce rate is through the roof and with dating apps, men are being dodgier than ever. I'm about to buy my own apartment for my dog and I and the future will be that either a potential long termer can move in with me (in which my apt will be heavily tied up in contracts, so that he can never take it from me), or I will move in with him, but I will rent out my place. AND I will always have m… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/03/21 02:22 AM |
| 1 | Moved to the US.. can't believe how men treat women hereUgh right?! I always swipe left on tradies (I have a joke with my housemate that if they don't have direct reports in a corporate world, I'm not interested). So I can confirm that the professionals are just as bad. Like it's actually astounding how much they love to lie, flake and just not put in any effort. I honestly rarely date Aussies for this reason and tend to go for the expats. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/11/20 10:35 PM |
| 8 | When you miss them, read this.He broke up with me out of nowhere (even though I always put up with his criticism, anxiety and depression and bent over backwards for him) after meeting his extended family and friends overseas coz he 'realised he didn't want kids after all or to settle down' after living together for 8 months. I always forget that LVM move and focus on the stuff I miss. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/11/20 04:55 AM |
| 17 | Don’t rush to feel the butterflies and passion when you’re meeting these men. That’s actually your intuition telling you somethings up! Love isn’t extreme passion. It is gentle, warming and safe.It's funny that this was posted today. I wrote here worried that I met a guy through mutual friends, who I was worried that I wasn't 100% physically attracted to yet. And this post has made me realise that that's not it. I just don't feel that anxiety and butterflies that I normally feel when I'm overly keen on a guy. It's early days, but so far I've felt comfortable and safe with him, basically straight off the bat. An interesting change. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/10/20 05:31 AM |
| 4 | Can attraction grow for a HVM?Yeah that’s how I feel with this guy. The conversation is great and he is in the same industry as me and is senior level (not easy to get there), which I find really attractive | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/10/20 01:35 AM |
| 5 | Can attraction grow for a HVM?That’s relieving! I would say there is some small spark, coz I’ve definitely been ‘complete no’ on a lot of guys in terms of physical attraction and I’m not ‘complete no’ on him, so I am definitely going to see where it goes. Also I get butterflies when a guy that I like kisses me, so if I feel something when he kisses me, I think that’s when I’ll know! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 11:07 PM |
| 2 | Can attraction grow for a HVM?Totally hear you! My issue is my past attractions. My friend literally told me recently, 'you're attracted to guys who aren't good for you,' so I'm not sure if giving this guy a chance is 'settling' in my instance, as I think who I tend to be straight up attracted to are often emotionally unavailable LVM! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 10:10 PM |
| 10 | Can attraction grow for a HVM?Omg it's the worst and I'm sure there is some psychiatric science behind it. It's why I'm seeing where things go with this guy. The immediate attraction/anxious obsession style I usually have has led to success a total of 0 times, so that's why I'm willing to see where this goes! Typically I'm 'immediate yes' or 'immediate no', so I at least TRY to explore when a guy sits somewhere in the middle. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 09:31 PM |
| 19 | Can attraction grow for a HVM?That's so good to hear! I noticed that when I'm straight up attracted to a guy, I tend to ignore his red flags in favour of the chemistry. I feel a lot more level headed about this guy as I don't have the immediate, 'wanna jump his bones' feeling, so hopefully it develops. I know that when my Mum met my Dad, she was NOT attracted to him. They were friends for years before they got together, so there's hope! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 09:22 PM |
| 2 | Don't EVER move abroad for a man.Nah it was in California moving from New York | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 07:20 PM |
| 3 | Literally the “sex posi” movement in a nutshellDefinitely not. He was very aggressive with other sexual things that triggered me from when I was actually sexually assaulted, so I never spoke to him again after that night | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 05:23 AM |
| 38 | Don't EVER move abroad for a man.Absolutely. Although I was living in New York at the time, I moved over to California for my ex (after having to go back home to Australia due to visa issues). So while I was technically 'living' in the country already, it took a lot to go to his side of the country and I didn't know anyone. He 100% did not appreciate it and would constantly gaslight me, emotionally abuse me and physically on 1 occasion. I finally saw the light of day after TWO YEARS in a shitty job for the visa sponsorship and … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/10/20 04:58 AM |

| 5 | Ladies, you heard straight from the wolf’s mouthPoint 5: Break Up Out of Space. Words that could have been right out of my ex's mouth. Ouch. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/10/20 05:36 AM |
| 5 | Moved to the US.. can't believe how men treat women hereDefinitely agree. They’re also courteous and like to pay for the first date (from my experience anyway). Australian men nickel and dime you, which is ironic since the pay is so much better here 😬 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 03/10/20 12:37 AM |
| 5 | Moved to the US.. can't believe how men treat women hereSouthern California and New York. Although I met my second ex when I moved back home to Australia. He was originally from Colorado | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/10/20 11:04 AM |
| 5 | Life is a lot less stressful nowMe now that I don’t tolerate bs anymore. I couldn’t believe how many LVMs were loitering in my life and feeding off my former low self esteem. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/10/20 05:03 AM |
| 21 | Moved to the US.. can't believe how men treat women hereUgh I know!! I’ve had 2 serious relationships and both were with Americans. At least they opened doors for me and were overt about being interested. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/10/20 04:59 AM |
| 112 | Moved to the US.. can't believe how men treat women hereI am from Australia and lived in the US for 3.5 years. I actually thought the Americans were a refreshing change from the Aussies. Can't believe how much Aussie men lie, flake and put in 0 effort. They make American men seem amazing :/ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/10/20 01:19 AM |
| 2 | One of my all time favs.OMG what is with the ethically non monogamous bs as of late?! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/09/20 07:03 AM |
| 3 | Ladies, stop devaluing yourselves and shying away from proper dinner dates! A nice restaurant is not intimidating, a dinner date is not too much pressure, and if you really feel you don't want to eat a meal with someone, you shouldn't be accepting a date with him in the first place!Agree. My ex and I split for foundational reasons, but our first date was a proper dinner date and then we went to watch the lights show outside the Sydney Opera House. I'm always so afraid to ask for a proper date in fear that there is no chemistry. Should probably just not go on the date at all if they haven't at least piqued my interest in some way prior! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/09/20 01:30 AM |
