We just don't want to date you. We'll date men that fit our standards.

| 7 | Stop being nice to men.A blade is a great supplement, but I don't want anyone to get within arms reach to begin with. The unfortunate reality is that even the smallest and most scrawny men are physically stronger than most women--and I'm not exactly an MMA fighter.

If they try to get close, I tell them to back off. That's the warning. If they don't back off, I'll blast them straight in the face. Luckily, no one hadn't gotten past the warning phase. I truly do not want to harm anyone. But a gal's gotta do what a gal's got to do. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/03/20 08:13 AM |

| 21 | Concerns with being average (Down There)Everyone is entitled to their standards. Most men want women with specific body characteristics (breast size, hip-waist ratio, height, weight, skin color, hair color, eye color, nose shape/size, and the list goes on). Some women want men with a 6"+ penis. Some do not care. Some women want 6'+ tall men. Some do not care. This is simply something you must accept. You cannot change your body, and these women cannot change how they feel or what they are attracted to. Just like the sea of garbage men… | /r/askFDS | 12/03/20 07:51 PM |

It's honestly very stressful and exhausting, and more often than not we are so burnt out that we don't really get around to replying to everyone.

| 11 | Anyone else go from HVW to Pickmeisha out of habitBeing a HVW is a choice that you must make every single day. When you've spent 20+ years being a pickme, you're constantly drawn to your bad habits. You have to make a point of checking and rechecking yourself. The newer you are to FDS, the more frequently you have to evaluate and refine your behavior. It's hard, and takes diligence and perseverance, but it is so worth it. Every day is gets clearer and clearer why it's worth it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/02/20 01:22 PM |

If he's aware of this and doesn't feel an innate desire to do everything he can to change it, then he is low value. If you fake it to maintain his ego, STOP. It's a huge disservice to yourself. we were on the same page about having kids before marriage (in 5 years) but he revealed to me that he doesn't want them at all now. Valid deal breaker if you do want kids. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/01/20 06:26 AM |

Read the comments for even worse stories about LV dads NOT EVEN KNOWING THEIR DAUGHTERS' NAMESThe thing about this is that these are LOW VALUE MEN, but it's treated like it's completely normal because LVM are pandemic. Like "Haha, silly dad! Guys just don't remember stuff like that!" My dad has SEVEN children. He is and always was the first one to tell us happy birthday in the morning every year. He doesn't give a flying shit about baseball stats or football players or whatever else.

He didn’t know my name (I was the third daughter he mentioned), age, birthdate, anything!

My immediate thought was "she's 18 or so and he's a nasty 40-50 year old man" Then, big surprise, he later says: I respected the nanny's wishes and I've backed off when she said no.
