| 37 | I can’t believe what I just found on Facebook! Most of the comments seem to agree with her. 🤡🤮I’ve seen a lot of new posts about energies, many “feminine energy” sites push for this. “The man leads”, “taking iniciative is masculine” “a woman has to REST in her femininity while her man takes care of everything”. I find weird how many women want to live like they did years ago, when they had no rights, and if a man feels I’m “mAscUliNe” because I think for myself and am opinionated, then I sure as hell don’t want him. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/08/21 01:39 PM |
| 11 | 'Spiritual'/hippie menYes! Alt/goth/ metal scenes are a cesspool of NVM/LVM covering each others tracks. They sleep with anything with a pulse but call women wh o r 3 s in the same breath. Where I live its riddled with abusers, sexual predators and hypocrites. They proudly display their pornsickness to the world and hate on feminism and “women stuff” Lots of women have left the scene for those reasons and they don’t care because “fUck fEmeNaz1s”.

Certain FDS posts feel...alienating?. I wish there was a space or level up strategy for lonely women. Women who don’t have lots of quality men available to date (like some here say they do), women who, no matter what they do, don’t get prioritized by their friends or family. How to level up solo and get fulfillment from things besides relationships. I like meeting people, I truly do. But every time I realize I’m the one moving things forward, making plans, caring more.

| 56 | On flaky “friends” and why I understand when women overinvest in their romantic relationships. I think we can have pickme tendencies without being a full blown pickme.Thank you for this. I used to cling and have a hard time getting over my LV/NV exes because I don’t have a circle of supportive people around. I felt bad because everyone here on FDS always said: we don’t need a man, we HVW have good families , amazing friends and careers. While most of my family is abusive/ dead/ lives far away and I have no good friends. I’ve always been on my own until a man came and I made him my world. My last ex hurt the most because he was also a friend and he actually wa… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/06/21 09:23 PM |
| 3 | The happiest person in all of these pics. The rich single aunt! QueenI got dandruff from the stress of being with my LV/NV ex. When we broke up it magically went away. When we got back together not even a day passed and it was back. I also got reocurring yeast infections. I think I was so stressed my immune system suffered. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/06/21 03:00 PM |
| 9 | If a guy has a high "body count" he is probably a rapist.I believe this. In my pickme days I hung out with two men and had sex with one who I found out were rapists after the fact. One was very nice towards me and took me out with him and his friends, we just kissed. But all his friends knew he was a womanizer and they all had “locker room talk” in front of me. The other one (the one I had sex with) was PUSHY from day one, disrespected boundaries, bragged about sleeping with multiple women, was misogynistic and demanded a relationship from day one.

| 17 | Weekly FDS Chat/ Check-inI feel so lonely. I’ve always had a hard time socializing and making friends. That’s why I made lvm and nvm my world. Because at least they wanted to hang out and be with me (in the honeymoon stage). I’ve been single two years and all my friends are emotionally unavailiable and they never want to see me or put interest in me. I’m tired of always being the interested part, even in friendships.

I’m an introvert and all my life I’ve faced rejection and loneliness, even since I was a child. That’s why I clung so badly to LVM/NVM. I miss my ex constantly because he is the only one that wanted to see me (in the honeymoon phase of course).

All LVM and NVM, and I constantly feel like there’s something wrong with me because I haven’t found someone after my last relationship.

| 17 | The processYes. I’ve been single two years and I crave intimacy so much. I feel so lonely, the pandemic and being surrounded by couples doesn’t help. I’ve always had a hard time attracting men, now it’s even harder because of fds standards and radical feminism. I literally have no prospects. But I fight the pickmesha thoughts to avoid chasing men. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/03/21 05:08 PM |
| 33 | True statement, wrong conclusion. Why "be a hoe"? Why not "focus on yourself, love yourself, level up"?I just realized that I spent all of my teen years and half of my early twenties chasing men and validation instead of discovering myself and building my future. Was it worth it? No. Every single one of those men were unavailable at best and abusive at worst and none of them are on my life right now. Not worth it at all. If I had spent all the energy I spent on men on myself and in building good friendships with other women, I’ll be in a completely different place right now.

I’ve been taking a long break from dating and romantic relationships, but I’ve always found hard to get a boyfriend, even LVM ones. I’m not ugly or mean. People tend to come for me for advice and venting but that’s it. The men I like never like me back. So it makes sense to me to become a WGTOW. I won’t settle for mediocre friendships who just want to take from me, or predatory men (which are the only ones interested). It’s great… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/11/20 10:59 PM |
| 1 | Being single is okay!Thank you. I’m glad you’re living a fulfilling life with yourself and your furbbabies. The financial independence part is a tricky goal for me because it might take me longer than others. (I’m aiming for a career change since I don’t like my major.) | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/11/20 10:56 PM |
| 2 | Being single is okay!What do you do in your spare time? I’m close to mid twenties and I’m coming to terms to being alone forever. I’ve been single for almost two years. All my friends from college have distanced themselves and have boyfriends, some of them are living together with their boyfriends. I have hobbies and I’m considering a career change. I’m lonely 85% of the time. It’s just hard realizing that my dream about living with a SO and having a solid group of friends is an unattainable fantasy. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/11/20 07:47 PM |
| 4 | Being single is okay!Thank you. Thank you. Seriously. I used to only care about romantic relationships. Then, once I got burned for the 100th time, I turned my focus on friendship. I realized that my friendships weren’t more fulfilling than my relationships/ situationships with LVM/NVM. Most of my family of origin is abusive or neglectful. During this pandemic I’ve come to terms with my perpetual loneliness and I’m quite of okay. But I wonder what will happen when my few semi okay family members die.

But I never found it. The times when I had a boyfriend I would cling to him because he seemed to be the only one that saw me and actually wanted to spend time with me (for the honeymoon phase at least).

| 3 | PertinentLooking back after escaping that house and those people...every single relationship I’ve ever had, was because I needed an escape. Not a boyfriend. At the time I thought I was “in love”. They all ended badly tho, and now, after almost 2 years single and celibate, I don’t feel ready for a relationship at all. I don’t see the point, I want someone who adores me and cherishes me but that is so rare and, the truth is, idk what I could even do for them since I feel so broken. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/11/20 07:23 PM |

| 8 | if that ain’t the truth. we need to start looking at cheating as the man’s defect and not what the woman was lacking.You can’t generalize like this. Not all affair partners are ugly and evil people. Maybe they are naive and inexperienced, maybe they come from trauma or have really really low self esteem because they’ve had a shifty life. Maybe they don’t know better. It just hurts me reading women getting described this way. When I was younger, I was a cheating partner many times. Until I got therapy and became a feminist and got burned enough. Women can change with help and information. Often the LVM were old… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/11/20 02:31 AM |

Dump him sis, he wants you to.My ex told me he used to be in relationships with girls he didn’t even like. I truly couldn’t get it, why would you be with someone you can’t stand? I thought he was lying to make me feel better (I’m different! He likes me! 🤦🏻♀️). But now I realize he might have actually been telling the truth for once lol. Of course in one of our fights he told me that he had been trying to push me away for all the relationship because he didn’t like me either.

My friends are moving in with their boyfriends or spend time with other friends (even prior to the pandemic) I’m used to doing everything alone: going to concerts, going for coffee.

(My ex was a goth). Another guy I hanged out with when I was a pick me told me he hadn’t changed his sheets (after I had stayed over).

| 1 | When men think your options will dwindle without their golden penisHmm I mean I have like two guys who used to be interested in me but I was never sure about them, one is definitely LV and the other was really nice, a man had never treated me better (but he honestly did the bare minimum lol). But now after a year he’s dating someone during the pandemic 🙄 and he has tried to text me a couple of times so I’m sure he‘d not HV at all. So yeah. No HVM for me :( | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/08/20 01:32 PM |
| 1 | When men think your options will dwindle without their golden penisI have a different look and personality and I’m an introvert. So I guess that explains it. Idk, ever since being a pickme I had trouble with being liked (that’s why I was a pickme lol) in working on it on therapy but I really thought some of the ladies here were “fighting men off”. Normally I don’t let it get to me but sometimes I feel lonely (specially during the pandemic). | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/08/20 01:29 PM |
| 2 | When men think your options will dwindle without their golden penisThis feels so much better. I try to not get sad about it but even when I was a pickme I had a hard time dating.

I went from being pissed and demanding answers about the cheating to telling him I loved him and walking him to a therapist office (which he never entered anyways). I should’ve dumped him right there. Ugh. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/08/20 12:13 AM |

| 1 | Just discovered FDS. Is it only a matter of meeting the right person?While is good that you feel this way towards someone, this isn’t the right mentality. “Men act right for the right person” is a myth. This places responsibility in women for men’s actions and promotes the toxic mentality that “he’s just not that into you” (something that contributes to low self worth in women). A HVM would treat everyone with decency and kindness and treat the person he chooses to date with respect and honesty.

And that women should chase men and fuck them even if they treat them like trash. God forbid “unattractive” women want to date. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/07/20 04:51 PM |

| 5 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered June 17 2020Thank you so much. I’m worried because this seems inconsistent with his past behaviors. All the time I knew him he showed indifference or apathy/ disdain towards his exes. He “hated” social media and cellphones and after we broke up, he started posting a lot and he now has more than 2000 friends (mostly women from other places, one of them even commented the picture saying that “he looks amazing”). I forgot to add he also dyed his hair like mine, the exact place and color (it’s a distinctive loo… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 05:42 PM |
| 3 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered June 17 2020Those are pictures I sent to him when we were dating. It’s really hard to get justice around here and they won’t take me seriously since he hasn’t contacted me at all and those are pictures of my face :/ plus with the corona situation. I hope he stops. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 05:16 PM |
| 9 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered June 17 2020Ladies. I would like your opinion and advice. My ex is posting PICTURES OF MY FACE on his profile. For more context: Back when I was a pickme I dated the “love of my life”. An lvm who had a kid at 19 and was a disaster. Typical bad boy. I grew to love him because he treated me well at the beginning, even though we started through cheating (I apologized and made amends with his ex and now we’re on good terms). In the end, after almost two years he asked for a break because our relationship was co… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 04:23 PM |
| 7 | Just a reminder for any Queens who’ve had exes or fuckboys lurk back...My ex nvm who I took back after “a break” and then ignored me until I dumped him, just started posting pictures of me on his fb and saying he misses me (almost two years later). I shouldn’t have been lurking, but I reported the pictures. I don’t get it. He was done with the relationship. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 16/06/20 08:35 PM |
| 16 | Sometimes we need a reminder!Grew up with abusive family so I had no self esteem, no social skills aside from people pleasing, no self love and no self respect. That guy was like my savior in my eyes. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/06/20 04:02 PM |
| 3 | If it's emotionally hard to stay away from a LVM, post here. If you need encouragement, post here. If you want to stay on track but its been tough this week, post here. I will give you ENCOURAGEMENT, AFFIRMATIONS, and SUPPORT to other Queens that need to get through this shitty week. Don't text him.It’s been almost two years and I sometimes I still check his profile. Ive cut off many men for being overtly or covertly sexist or anti feminist and I feel so lonely. All my friends have boyfriends and I worry I’ll never have sex again. I come here and read the posts daily and I try to accept that I may never find a HVM. Sometimes I’m okay with that but sometimes I don’t. I hate that I’m so wired for male validation that if a man is nice to me I get the thought of “maybe he could be the one”. I’… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 03/06/20 04:50 PM |

| 7 | This subreddit is changing my lifeI’ve been here since November and I feel the same. I’ve had more peace and stability being alone and reading FDS than chasing men and being in a relationship with a LVM. The system is rigged against us, even with therapy and self development, the one element that keeps us stuck, suffering and broken is chasing male validation. Im thankful for FDS. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/06/20 07:36 PM |

| 2 | Male entitlement....A guy I dated when I was a pickme, sexually harassed me. He spied me when I was about to pee, so, when someone was “tAlKinG tO hIm” instead of calling the cops, the scrote said: we can’t even do anything anymore, because of these femin zi wh res”. So, they do think like that. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/05/20 04:17 PM |
| 32 | Damn straight! Cheating is the ultimate sign of disrespect - dump them immediatelyThis is so eye opening and so true. It’s because men hate women. Society hates women. It’s misogyny. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/05/20 03:56 PM |

| 63 | The idea that men change for the women they truly love is just another way to make women feel responsible for being treated badly by men.Thank you. I always felt bad due to the “he’s not that into you” narrative. It made me feel like if I was good enough, he would fall in love with me and “change”. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/05/20 04:24 PM |
| 12 | I think about this oftenCringe | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 16/05/20 03:50 PM |
| 22 | HVM trait - celebrating your interests, quirks and hobbies. Men who make fun of you or make you feel badly for these things do not deserve you (more details in the comments).Same! Ahhh I love this community | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/05/20 01:59 PM |
| 4 | Leveling up does not bring you more options as a woman - and that's OKAYThank you so much! I constantly felt bad and lonely because no one wanted to be with me, and now with my FDS mindset even less. I thought I might be doing something wrong. Thank you so much. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/05/20 04:09 AM |
| 17 | Fuckboys who treat their new girlfriends to all the things you wanted but never got do so because they're desperately trying to prove you were the problem all along.

| 0 | Rules for men trying to respect FDS in their dating lifeThis perpetuates the toxic idea that “meeting the right woman” can change a man. LV is LV, it doesn’t matter if you’re a queen or a pickmeisha. HV man will be respectful of and kind with everybody, regardless if he’s interested in them or not. LVM will pretend for a while but they will always come back to their bad behavior. | /r/askFDS | 28/04/20 09:03 PM |
| 32 | I saw this and thought it was a really interesting take on “not like other girls”When I was a “not like the other girls” girl back in high school and middle school it was also because the girls I saw as “normal” and “desirable” constantly bullied me, the alternative chubby girl who no one noticed or bullied. I wanted to distance myself from them as much as possible. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/04/20 04:00 PM |

| 5 | When males give you the creep stare in public, don’t look away. Deliberately give them a complete face and body scan and sneer at them like you’re contemptuously noticing their presence long enough to memorize details about them for a future police sketch.Half the time I stare back they kept staring and it’s like an uncomfortable stare contest. They take it as a challenge and it’s scary. Lately I’ve been insulting them, not the best idea but I’m so angry at them. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/03/20 02:38 PM |

| 3 | Movies that illustrate the dangers and reality of associating with LVM (aka most men)There’s an older woman who’s sad and alone after a divorce and then she meets a younger and attractive man. She starts dating him and tells him about her past, he’s like a dream, making her feel appreciated and courted. Until he proposes. Then he turns into a nightmare. It was likely he was a sociopath. But he showed all HVM behaviour until he locked her down. I think it serves us an example to never fully trust men and to always be careful. Had she followed FDS and not let her guard down becaus… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/01/20 11:44 PM |
| 3 | Movies that illustrate the dangers and reality of associating with LVM (aka most men)Omg yes! And I’ve sadly seen so many young women and teens saying they want a bf like Joe because he’s obsessed with Beck (and they see it as a man actually caring about you). Like men’s underperformance on everything makes an obsessed guy seem like a dream. 🤦🏻♀️ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/01/20 11:18 PM |
