| 1 | What to do about a hostile non-RPW friend?I have been kind to her.....I clearly wrote that I offer a supporting hand to listen to her and ask her to spend time outside of work? And I'm not sure why you think I'm patronising her by trying to be her friend? So I'm just supposed to not say anything to her at all when we have coffee?? I'm really not sure where you're going with this. I'm perfectly happy for her when she has her successes and she had a lot of qualities that I definitely don't have. | /r/RedPillWomen | 22/01/20 01:58 PM |

| 4 | What to do about a hostile non-RPW friend?First off I think you're being dramatic about me "rubbing it in" - in reality I'm not gushing about something every day to her. It's the occasional times I share something positive that she gets snarky. There have been plenty of other times where the hostility came from something unrelated. I'm not trying to "bait her and be cruel" at all and you're completely misreading my intentions and painting a bad picture of me for no reason, honestly. But generally when friends socialize, we share good an… | /r/RedPillWomen | 20/01/20 09:33 PM |
| 3 | What to do about a hostile non-RPW friend?So you're saying I'm not allowed to share good news about my life with a friend?? Because she started to roll her eyes at me whenever I shared a story about me and my fiancé (among sharing other positive news outside of the relationship). I helped a lot with dating advice from a RPW standpoint (let him drive, dress up more) and was there to listen to her talk about what was going on. In the staff meetings, she'll have a minor outburst at me for just contributing thoughts to the discussion. Clear… | /r/RedPillWomen | 20/01/20 05:21 PM |
| 13 | What to do about a hostile non-RPW friend?The way she treats me has changed, so for sure it's not just one incident. I have also offered a hand to her to go out together but she often declines, and our conversations have slowly gone toward strictly work. But the snarkiness towards me in passing or in the meetings was the dealbreaker, and she doesn't seem to want to include me in any of her side projects (that she has with the guys). The biggest deal breaker is that we discovered our boss gave me a higher performance rating than her, and… | /r/RedPillWomen | 20/01/20 12:31 PM |
| 2 | UltimatumsYes, super long relationships are definitely a thing. What I've seen is an average of 5 years of dating, and sometimes even longer - my brother dated his wife for 8 years before proposing. Personally I see the advantage of dating for a very long time before getting married. You really get to know the person, and see them go through enough changes, and also grow together through pitfalls, and there's no substitute for that except time, time, time. Some dating advice says that one year is enough t… | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/01/19 03:37 PM |
| 1 | Are pretty girls not allowed to be funny?The image is really true. I've sworn in passing once and guys have been shocked that something like that comes out of my mouth, because I'm really dainty and girly. | /r/RedPillWomen | 20/11/18 04:49 PM |
| 4 | Are pretty girls not allowed to be funny?The other part is a sort of discomfort at role betrayal. The halo effect makes a pretty girl seem near-angelic just based on her appearance. Breaking that spell is an almost-literal disenchantment. YES!!!! I think this is a huge part of it. It's the "angelic part" - the innocent look that throws people off. So then it's worse if a seemingly sweet girl starts swearing - it's more shocking than funny. | /r/RedPillWomen | 13/11/18 11:03 AM |
| -2 | Are pretty girls not allowed to be funny?Eh, I wrote this in a comment below - I find it really interesting that the fat girls who have great personalities - entertaining, witty, charismatic, easy to confide in - still have trouble getting asked out. I'm not sure if it's because they've become too self-sufficient and maybe a little more dominant in their mannerisms. Being funny and witty takes a lot of confidence and skill. I wonder if men can have FUN with these girls but still need to feel like they're better than her - and being fun… | /r/RedPillWomen | 13/11/18 11:01 AM |
| 0 | Are pretty girls not allowed to be funny?I just think it's interesting - the fat girls (at least the ones I know) are really entertaining, fun to be with, easy to confide in, but they still never get asked out. I feel like it's just proof that personality matters, but men still judge on appearances, as superficial as it is. | /r/RedPillWomen | 13/11/18 10:55 AM |

| 1 | I feel that I don't need a manI'm glad I found out the root of my issues (the sexual abuse) because my depression/BPD was chronic, and no matter what I did in my life, I couldn't overcome it (tons of meds, lifestyle changes, self improvement, self care, CBT). I'm thankful I now know why I suffered from it for so long. I'm single and I'm 29, I feel like I'm a bit of a lost cause because of my age, but I do know objectively I'm still physically attractive. I keep a strict diet and take care of myself very well. Sometimes I fee… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/10/18 07:06 PM |
| 2 | I feel that I don't need a manThank you, I actually just started seeing a therapist about the sexual abuse. I suffered from depression/BPD for about 15 years and it wasn't until this year when the traumatic memories started coming back that I realized the reason for all of this. | /r/RedPillWomen | 14/10/18 08:39 PM |
| 8 | I feel that I don't need a manThis sounds appropriate. Because if I don't have that dopamine kind of attraction (excitement, emotional), I'm not attracted. My sexual attraction is 100% based off of feelings. When I think back to my childhood, yes I have an anxious attachment style. I always needed my own independence and I pushed people away because I needed space. Then when I was around people, I needed a lot of admiration and attention. I experienced sexual abuse from a male family member when I was 6 and 10 years old, and… | /r/RedPillWomen | 14/10/18 03:36 PM |
| 2 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexNo. BMI 21. I don't think it's physical appearance. I get plenty of compliments from both men and women on how great I look. I do struggle with depression and anxiety so that might be it. | /r/RedPillWomen | 10/05/18 07:31 AM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexSecond possibility.... Have you considered the possibility that you may not be an appealing LTR candidate yourself? Yes, I have considered it plenty of times. I've tried in the past few years to become an appealing candidate. I just can't tell if it's working. I get some mixed signals here and there. The main reason (judging from my own experience) is men telling me to just be happy and free (instead of feeling like I need to be a perfectionist) but then the opposite problem happens. I'll go thr… | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/05/18 07:51 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexThere is a difference between asking for commitment and asking for exclusivity I think RPW needs to re-word the theory - because it really doesn't make sense to preach "commitment before sex." It's better to say "exclusivity before sex" or at least along the lines of monogamous dating (so make sure he's not seeing other women). Commitment brings the word to a whole other level. | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/05/18 04:02 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexwomen I feel are very sexual and desire me from the beginning, if they decide to have sex early on because they will enjoy it, as opposed to feeling that strong desire and them trying to hold it against their true will just to “play the game of waiting”, hence being fake on that front. YES this is what I mean too. I would hope to have sexual desire from the beginning. I don't really want to bargain either. So to sum up, being honest, knowing yourself, being courageous, not trying to play games b… | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/05/18 11:00 AM |

| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexYeah, as long as a man has good game, he doesn't really need to commit as long as younger women are giving up sex and companionship/co-habitation. It's sad. | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/05/18 08:45 AM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexAnd this seems to happen right around the time that you give them the "no sex until commitment" talk. Eh, I don't actually give them the talk. Of course I know it's a boner killer. I usually just wait and see.....and then they ghost because I don't give sex. But I don't actually sit them down and say "hey we need to talk" (omg, headdesk). But it's more like I just don't know how it works IN THEORY. I haven't actually been active in getting "commitment before sex." | /r/RedPillWomen | 08/05/18 04:53 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexCommitment is his attitude about you. The one that makes him decide, over and over again, to spend the evening with you instead of looking for a new girl on Tinder. That's a really good way of putting it! Thanks for that. You appear not to have even started the process of thinking about what the experience of spending time with you looks like from his perspective. Another good point. So I guess the difficult part is - I can show him what it's like to spend time with me - he can either love it or… | /r/RedPillWomen | 08/05/18 04:35 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexIn this particular case, he had to work a little bit to get me to sleep with him. Basically on the first date he tried to get me to go home with him and I refused - and I did make it clear I wasn't looking for just sex. Second date we talked (like friends) for a few hours, and he did make an effort to court me a bit, we had good chemistry in general, so we hooked up. He did tell me on the first date he wasn't seeing anybody else already. | /r/RedPillWomen | 08/05/18 09:36 AM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexI would suggest, as an early vetting method, establishing early (preferably on the first date) if the guy you're on a date with is seeing more than one woman at once, or one at a time. If you limit yourself to the "one at a time" guys, it may give you a bit more confidence that sleeping with them 3-4 dates in is a worthwhile risk. That's good advice. I naturally sensed the type of man (just looking for fun) when I see he's texting other girls or seems to have a lot of female friends, and I would… | /r/RedPillWomen | 08/05/18 07:59 AM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexYeah exactly. I've even heard men need to even come inside a woman to see if he feels that reproductive instinct. | /r/RedPillWomen | 08/05/18 06:37 AM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexA variety of places - gym, Bumble, friends of colleagues, friends of friends. I mean there was no sexual chemistry for most so I definitely wouldn't continue dating them if there wasn't. But I'm sort of asking for general advice - the "commitment before sex" sounds impossible if sex is needed for a man to decide commitment. | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/05/18 09:02 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexFor the majority - no - and definitely I wouldn't have sex if there was no attraction, even if it's easy. The last guy I dated though - we were extremely passionate about each other and he even asked me interview questions (number of kids, told me he had good benefits, asked me about my family, told me he'd like me to meet his family), we had really good chemistry outside of sex, good sexual chemistry....literally everything. And he ghosted. I really don't know what happened there. It seems I ca… | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/05/18 08:59 PM |

| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexI COMPLETELY understand and I also agree there needs to be chemistry from the beginning. I would also like it to us to be naturally sexually attracted to each other. It makes sense. Attraction is important. I also need to feel passionate about a man and him to feel the same way about me. This is why I just don't understand the RPW advice about "commitment before sex." Theoretically it makes sense. But I don't see how it works in reality. That's why I'm asking how this is "supposed" to work. It d… | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/05/18 07:31 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexI usually ask if they're seeing anybody else. If they are, then I'll continue to date (meaning I see if they still call me back) and sometimes they ghost after a few more weeks (my feeling is they ghost because I didn't give them sex). Or they'll say "let's see." | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/05/18 07:25 PM |

| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexI feel like if I commit to a woman who has no bargaining power, it's more real. Explain this? I think I know what you mean but I'd to hear it in your words. Do you mean there would be a NATURAL sexual attraction rather than a bargain? | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/05/18 05:55 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sex"hey, just to get this out of the way early, I'm the kind of girl who waits until monogamy before sleeping with a guy. I just want to be upfront so there aren't any mixed signals or misaligned expectations." Hmm, interesting. I could try this next time. explaining your holding out on sex for commitment as a core part of your identity. Yeah, makes sense when you put it that way. I guarantee he hears that and thinks you're trying to lock him down in the next month. Just to play devil's advocate, i… | /r/RedPillWomen | 07/05/18 05:54 PM |
| 1 | I can't seem to get commitment before sexI try to bring up what I'm looking for in the second or third weeks. Usually first 2-3 dates are just getting to know each other and having fun. Then if all goes well, I'll somehow bring up "I'm looking to have a family" in the conversation, or I'll straight up ask him what HE'S looking for. You can usually tell by their answer - if they're dodgy or skirting the subject, or say some flirtatious line like "well you're just so beautiful" then I know to cut ties.

| 10 | Opinion Piece on Quitting Dating AppsI tend to lose interest in the men I meet in person! It's strange. I think perhaps I start friend zoning them, even though in theory it's a good way to vet each other as people for a while. When I meet men on dating apps, I think it works out because it's very clear what each person is looking for. Right from the start we know we're vetting for a relationship. I think that's my issue. When I meet men in real life they tend to end up in the friend zone. I think I need the clear intention from the… | /r/RedPillWomen | 04/05/18 11:08 AM |
| 8 | Opinion Piece on Quitting Dating AppsI would agree with the article, however, personally for me the best relationships I've had were with men I met on dating apps. I've met men at the gym, grocery store, social circles, but for some reason it was never became a sustainable relationship. I wonder why?

| 2 | I NEED to act immature and like a child in order to have sexual attraction to a manAuthoritative, firm and decisive....yes, that sounds exactly what I like. | /r/RedPillWomen | 26/04/18 04:18 PM |
| 6 | I NEED to act immature and like a child in order to have sexual attraction to a manHaha, I think the ex didn't realize it was actually a fetish. That's probably why he was scared off. One other thing to mention about it: many men are attracted to that dynamic, but are ashamed of it. Good! Another thing to consider: do you need this dynamic all the time? Or just in the bedroom? Because it'll be a lot easier to find a man who is okay with this some of the time rather than all of the time. Just some of the time.

| 2 | I NEED to act immature and like a child in order to have sexual attraction to a mansoft, whimsical hyper feminine element, and can trigger strong alpha behaviors in men who are attracted to it. YES EXACTLY. This is EXACTLY it. I absolutely need strong alpha behaviors to feel sexual attraction, it can be borderline aggressive/violent. For me it's thrilling, knowing the fear of a man's strength. I get turned on being helpless and indecisive and being "put in my place." | /r/RedPillWomen | 26/04/18 06:50 AM |
| 8 | I NEED to act immature and like a child in order to have sexual attraction to a manI just have a strong feeling of needing to feel cute and small. I know men who claim they need a "queen" or a woman to keep them in line, but this is such a huge turn-off to me. For me it's the other way - I need a man to keep me in line and to order me around. I need to whine a little bit and beg him and he has to "not take my shit" and tell me "be a good girl." For me it's a turn on to misbehave and for him to keep me in line or punish me for bad behaviors. | /r/RedPillWomen | 26/04/18 06:48 AM |
| 14 | I NEED to act immature and like a child in order to have sexual attraction to a manI might have a mild fetish. It's not as serious as other users say - I don't need to play with toys or coloring books. BUT I do feel the need to submit and "serve" a man, and I need him to love and embrace me "like a child," guide me, listen to me, and punish me when I'm bad. I like to beg for sex and be told no, that I need to obey HIS desires. For me it's exciting and sexually fulfilling. Otherwise sex is boring if I have to do the work. I would say I have some rape fantasy fetish too, like be… | /r/RedPillWomen | 26/04/18 06:46 AM |
| 1 | Need reassuranceInteresting, I come from another East Asian culture and my mother raised me to be doormat submissive. Some of the submission works well in regards to deference to a man but for our family, women were highly protected, innocent, childlike.

If women are traditionally the weaker sex for survival, a woman without a man to provide for her, will typically rely on social means such as the government, community, friends, religious institutions.

Those behaviors should be a 100% deal breaker, but responsible gun ownership is a non issue. Of course, and he's not like that. He's in the military, and he even told me he's literally around soldiers who just NEED to shoot something, but he's not like that.

| 1 | What do you wish you had known earlier about male sexuality?If she is slutty with you and isn't cheating, give her a chance (although her number is abnormally high for any woman, like I said). But as mentioned, give her enough time. People change (men AND women) during a relationship. Most women are idiots when they're young....this is normal. If she can prove herself and her loyalty over time then I don't see why not, however she has to prove it. No attention seeking from other men, investing in herself and her hobbies. | /r/RedPillWomen | 24/03/18 04:50 AM |
| 3 | What do you wish you had known earlier about male sexuality?So you're saying she's not being a slut FOR YOU? (Meaning she's not being a dirty whore for you and ONLY you) That is not a good sign. Most women will have a few partners but once she is in a relationship her attention should be focused on you, especially her sexual efforts, regardless of how many previous partners she had. By slut I don't mean she's sleeping around or cheating while she's dating you, I'm simply saying she should act slutty with you because she's in a relationship with you. | /r/RedPillWomen | 23/03/18 11:36 PM |
| 7 | What do you wish you had known earlier about male sexuality?Do you think 24+ is too much for a 22 yo woman tho? She self identifies as a slut and it makes me not want to marry her. Do girls not understand how turned off men get when you talk about promiscuity? It's not insecurity it's more like a feeling of disgust. Yes, 24+ is too much for ANY woman let alone one that is 22yo. Any woman who self identifies as a slut is just stupid to me. She can be YOUR slut but if she says she's a slut in general that is disgusting. | /r/RedPillWomen | 23/03/18 10:51 PM |

Yes but I don't understand how that's an insult that she needs you in her life...usually men are happy when we want to see them and spend time with them and cuddle with them, right? That's why I didn't understand when my tech ex boyfriend felt INSULTED that I wanted to see him. Like I said, the insecurity was unbearable. 23, and lost virginity at 18. I got "hot" at 22-23.

I find this specific comment extremely interesting because that's also EXACTLY what my tech ex boyfriend said: "I'm paranoid that I'm just someone who is convenient for you" - which I found extremely strange. I would always want to see him but for some reason he took it as "I don't have anything better to do so I'll go spend time with him."

Of course, his girlfriend knew nothing of his intentions. I told him he's rather cruel since she probably loves him and is looking to get married, most women are not content just hopping from ltr to ltr , particularly at 27, she most likely wants to settle and not just "waste her time" but he was oblivious to my point of view.

| 1 | Is it better to marry a man who has had a few LTRs before?I actually agree with this and it makes sense - especially nowadays with easy access to relationships, if a man has high enough SMV to get laid, he can easily date a woman for 1-2 years then leave her when he's bored (or if she drives him away). But this is only pertaining to men who have good enough game - otherwise men will typically stay with one woman and make her happy because it's not easy for him to find one. | /r/RedPillWomen | 23/03/18 03:04 PM |
| 2 | What do you wish you had known earlier about male sexuality?Just out of curiosity, how overweight is overweight? Obviously obese is unattractive, but a nice ample booty is OK? Do women absolutely need stick thin figures or some meat on the hips/thighs are OK (assuming that stomach is generally flat). Keep in mind BMI numbers are tricky because there are athletic bodies that have more muscle tone but less fat. | /r/RedPillWomen | 21/03/18 10:04 PM |

| 2 | Curious about engagement stories from more traditional standardsYeah it's interesting because the man interested in me comes from a Muslim majority country (European).

It could be. When I was more insecure, I had the fear that I wasn't able to offer anything.

When I try to "let go," meaning I try to focus on myself and my own life, I don't feel as much attraction to him because in a sense I don't really need him to be happy. So then the attraction is lost because I'M not chasing him. When I don't care about him, I'm not attracted to him anymore.

| 1 | Please help me understand relationshipsThanks, I mean I know you are right (that it's a deep psychological issue) but I just don't know exactly what.

| 2 | Curious about engagement stories from more traditional standardsI think the old fashion method is very appealing. I think dating as a single is important because the spaces between (the times we don’t see each other), give us perspective and space to say “yes, this is what I want” or “no, this won’t work for me”. I agree and I think this is the advantage of the second method. Because sometimes you will get too deep into a relationship, it's difficult to see outside of it.

He's leading our "courtship" this way, and it confuses me sometimes but I think I understand his strategy now. He's very slow at his moves but he always comes back to me somehow.

| 2 | Do men respect women with a mission?Yes this is what I noticed. I noticed men don't respect a woman who ONLY says "I want a family" or "I want to be married" or "I want to have children." At least not modern men. They look for you as a person, your character, and if you can get along outside of children (empty nest syndrome) - does the marriage last by itself or is it just the contract/children keeping you together? | /r/RedPillWomen | 17/12/17 02:42 PM |

| 3 | My boyfriend is broken.And I'll add this about your comment above. Women use each other as gauges of the SMV/RMV of men so the fact that you are angry at her is actually more important to your own psyche than you may realize. Most women dislike the new girl who gets "their" man, fewer are angry at the ex. If the ex was still around, you wouldn't get the guy. I'm not angry at the ex, I'm just stating what I think.

| 1 | Dating lowerI'm also a bit confused why the two extremes: much lower class or 100k plus? Can you explain this? Just not sure what you're saying. Maybe it's more that you're seeking a guy who's not average, who has some type of edge? A bit, yes. I'm a creative type that likes culture and traveling, and my boyfriend is pretty edgy but he lacks that stability. How old are you? Do you think that another factor might be that lower class men are a bit more dominate and alpha and upper class men with any type of d… | /r/RedPillWomen | 22/06/17 07:04 PM |
| 1 | Dating lowerI know that men who have money feel like they can expect more from women. For example, men who male six figures would more likely want a socialite HB9 instead of me, who is just an HB7 but with good RMV qualities who likes to stay home. Perhaps it's where I come from, a big international city not in America, but a lot of the men with higher salaries tend to choose trophy wives, not wives that they can build a life with. | /r/RedPillWomen | 22/06/17 06:32 PM |
| 1 | Dating lowerThanks for your comment. I don't really mind living a simple life (even if it doesn't come off that way in my writing) but I'm more concerned that life would be difficult and less convenient on a lower salary. Again, I'm wealthy and I don't spend frivolously (besides a few occasional luxuries) but I just don't have to worry about money. That's my main concern. I don't want to spend money being afraid that I'm actually a pretty humble person and that's why I wasn't concerned about his salary at f… | /r/RedPillWomen | 22/06/17 02:06 PM |
| 11 | How could having a stay at home parent benefit my SO and I?Ok sure those are fine arguments, but then why doesn't your SO agree? You mentioned that you don't understand why: I feel that my SO puts too high of a premium on the importance of "love." That's the biggest red flag, IMHO. I mean like other users said maybe it's just different values between us and you, but the main point is you and your SO disagree with how to raise your children. Explain to him what you just explained to me and if your arguments are valid, then I don't see why he would have a… | /r/RedPillWomen | 18/06/17 10:47 PM |
| 12 | How could having a stay at home parent benefit my SO and I?Plus, we can still cook on vacations It seems much more valuable to sit and play a board game with my child My child can instead have memories of how he could never beat his father at chess or how his mother always crushed Charades. I think that's where people are getting the idea that you don't know what it takes to be a mother. It's not just about playing board games and taking vacations! | /r/RedPillWomen | 18/06/17 09:57 PM |
| 1 | How could having a stay at home parent benefit my SO and I?What does your SO say when you tell him your side? (that you can work during those eight hours, putting them in daycare, outsourcing cleaning and cooking) Do you currently cook for him? Does he expect you to cook when you get married, regardless of having children? Have you discussed splitting childcare duties if you both worked? What does he say? I think if he really wants you to be a SAHM and you absolutely cannot do so, then it's too much if a deal breaker. Like others said you will grow to r… | /r/RedPillWomen | 18/06/17 09:49 PM |

| 1 | Dating lowerI think you're right on some level, however I actually didn't realize the reality of his financial situation when we first started dating, because he was a project manager. Project managers tend to make a decent white collar salary. Slowly over time I realized it was for a small company not a corporation so his salary is lower. So I didn't choose him because I knew I would have "the upper hand"...I chose him because I thought we were more or less on the same level! Then the realities started com… | /r/RedPillWomen | 17/06/17 11:09 AM |

| 1 | Dating lowerI understand what you're saying and I see the potential problem of what you're saying. I don't plan to help him up the socioeconomic ladder. I am not investing in his education or businesses and neither is my family. I also know he might resent me or I might have transactional thoughts if this happened, so I refuse to do that. I believe he has to earn his status himself and he also believes that. He does feel insecure but he is working to not feel insecure. Regardless of me, he doesn't like wher… | /r/RedPillWomen | 16/06/17 10:09 PM |
| 1 | Dating lowerActually, I do have real "wealth," but that's a completely different story outside of salaries, assets and investments. I won't get into that though. | /r/RedPillWomen | 16/06/17 09:51 PM |
| 2 | Dating lowerWill you please relax on the term "wealth"? I've said many times that I'm using the term loosely only to say that I make significantly more than him, and my family makes significantly more than his. If the word "wealth" bothers you so much then we can change it to assets or salary. It seems like you're jealous if you think making 90k is LMC. I don't understand why you're making such a big deal about this. | /r/RedPillWomen | 16/06/17 09:35 PM |

| 2 | Dating lowerI'm using the term loosely, only to say that my family makes 2x his family. I'm on the lower end of UMC. | /r/RedPillWomen | 16/06/17 10:23 AM |
| 3 | Dating lowerI do hope that you manage to avoid having to deal with those kinds of people because not only is it damaging to the person but possibly monetarily. Yes and I completely agree with you. I admitted my ex-boyfriend was like this and that's why we broke up. All I'm saying is it doesn't apply to my current boyfriend because obviously I know him and his situation and background better than you do. I have thought about what you said very carefully. If you'd like me to show you exactly where you're bein… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 09:52 PM |
| 4 | Dating lowerHave you dated any UMC men? Or are the UMC men that you can pull not as attractive as the MC ones? My grad school boyfriend was UMC. Lived in a town where there was an Ivy League school, father was pulling in six figures. Family had a nice summer lake house. I'll tell you all about him. He was the laziest ass I knew. He went to a name school for undergrad where most people are admitted for merit scholarship, and his father paid his way through. He spent his time skipping class and smoking weed (… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 09:45 PM |
| 2 | Dating lowerI didn't think you were a gold digger, so I hope that's not the impression you got from my comment. No problem. I'm aware that men are sensitive to women wanting them for their money and here some people accuse women of marrying piggy banks so I just wanted to make it clear. But you're right, if I were a gold digger I wouldn't have stayed with him after knowing he's making less. It's definitely good to sit down and make expectations clear though. | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 09:31 PM |
| 2 | Dating lower"Less pressure" might not have been the best way to describe it but I enjoy middle class men because they're going somewhere. They still have dreams and ambitions. They want to explore. And yes my boyfriend reminds me of my father - intelligent, hardworking, simple, curious. My parents also worked very hard to grow their wealth so that's why it's not a turn-off to me to see him working for it. It's just that I've gotten wealthier earlier than him. So I just have to humble down if we got married … | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 09:15 PM |
| 1 | Dating lowerIt goes without saying, but don't date guys who are looking for a free ride or are deeply insecure about your upbringing. Yes, I agree. He's not insecure about how I grew up and he's not looking for a free ride for sure. I see that he takes virtually all the big responsibilities in the relationship. On the flip side, don't date guys that you consider "beneath you" because you think they're somehow easier to deal with or more impressed by you than a guy from your economic/social class. Definitely… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 09:09 PM |

| 3 | Dating lowerMy boyfriend has taken me to some of the poshest restaurants because of his business clients. He's stayed at 5 star hotels and invited me to go with him. He's gotten free tickets to expensive concerts through his connections and taken me. No, he is not using me for my wealth. He's not trying to impress me with this but sharing his earnings with me. I don't see how it's any different than a couple with equal status where the husband receives some sort of benefit and shares it with his wife. My pr… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 08:11 PM |
| 3 | Dating lowerI think I understand what you're getting at. However, couldn't you say that most women like nice things? For instance my brother's wife likes 5-star hotels and resorts. My brother is perfectly fine with a 3-star hotel. He wouldn't set foot in a 5-star hotel if it weren't for her. Now, currently she makes more than him, but I see that he feels like he needs to impress her with his money as well. So he's working very hard to give her what she wants. I think most men don't really care about the pos… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 06:51 PM |
| 2 | Dating lowerThank you for your comment. The good thing is he does not use me for my wealth. He always pays even when we both know I have more money. He never asks me for anything, although obviously as a good girlfriend I give him some gifts here and there and cook his favorite dishes. I think you make a good point about how we both might measure what it means to be a provider. He for sure has a strong provider mentality. That's something I should make clear to him what I expect at the very minimum. I know … | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 06:23 PM |
| 3 | Dating lowerYes I understand this. I know this could happen. For us I think the issue is already apparent but I am giving him a chance. Again I'm not asking for a rich lifestyle just able to have a basic standard of living that's safe. Unfortunately I'm prepared to leave if he can't do this in the next year. I'm 28 and I feel time is running out. We've already been dating for a little over a year and he's shown more setbacks than successes since I've known him. As always I try to look at the character not t… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 05:42 PM |
| 5 | Dating lowerYes and I acknowledge that this could happen as well. Usually the prenup is for a woman, when it's because a woman has money and the man has less, how does that work? I refuse to marry him or stay in the relationship if he can't provide a basic standard of living, so I know my money won't go towards a house/apartment. | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 05:37 PM |
| 6 | Dating lowerThank you. | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 04:55 PM |
| 2 | Dating lowerThank you. Yes his ambition and work ethic is what attracts me. And the fact that he is always striving for more. I know I'm being entitled, and again I realize I was very lucky growing up and didn't have to worry about anything. Especially as a daughter. I see how much he does, for his future and for me. I love him for this. Sometimes I just worry but I'm trying very hard not to. | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 04:41 PM |
| 3 | Dating lowerGreat comment. I do know that even though he and his family make less than mine, we do have the same values. So that's why we get along. I am not dating him to be a gold digger - I certainly don't expect him to finance my shopping habits, but I do expect him to provide a base standard of living (house does not have to be big but needs to be safe and comfortable). Any sort of personal purchases I expect that I will work for it myself. I'm probably at the lower end of UMC or at least borderline mi… | /r/RedPillWomen | 15/06/17 04:40 PM |
| – | How much compassionI completely understand his ambitions and again I want him to succeed and it's attractive to me. But I'm just watching on the sidelines and encouraging him and I hope he can figure out his way but I'm just afraid what happens if he can't. Again maybe I'm worrying too much because he has shown (in the past) that he's able to always turn things around if he needs to so he has the ability to adapt and be resilient. I think is also an important quality that you need to be able to deal with any situa… | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/06/17 11:47 AM |
| – | How much compassionWe've had a talk about his dreams and goals. He knows he needs to be more financially stable and he knows that I know. He also has some career ambitions and his ambition and work ethic is what drew me to him. On my end I feel like he's just throwing too far into the ocean to really pick put any fish and feel he need to concentrate on a more secure path before he tries going for something bigger. He does have contingency plans and he's able to find other jobs but I'm just worried because he hasn'… | /r/RedPillWomen | 09/06/17 11:08 AM |

We've also had very intense sex when I've been in a more vulnerable mood. | /r/RedPillWomen | 08/06/17 08:34 AM |

| 1 | Self worth issuesThank you. I do realize I'm very fortunate compared to most of the world but I have low self-esteem because I'm around a lot of beautiful women, so sometimes I cannot see out of my circle. When I'm around people who have less then I'm not as anxious, it's only when I'm around people who are more beautiful then I'm always worrying. | /r/RedPillWomen | 28/05/17 08:33 PM |

| 1 | Self worth issuesI'm on a non-hormonal IUD although I've considered switching to a hormonal one because I struggle with hormonal acne. Yes I wear pushup bras already. I don't like it either but the way he does it isn't super obvious, I mean it's the same way as if you're walking down the street and an attractive woman is walking right towards you, of course if she's in your line of sight you'll look at her. | /r/RedPillWomen | 27/05/17 10:41 PM |

Like I mentioned in OP I've done some bodybuilding so I've grown some glutes and filled out a bit but I will never have that hourglass figure because I'm a B cup and my hips aren't wide enough. I keep picking on minute details of my body even though my boyfriend finds me attractive but for some reason I have this ideal beauty in my head and if I don't have it then I'm ugly and inadequate.

| 2 | Self worth issuesThat's the thing though I do have a good life but for some reason these side concerns get to me. I think also I'm someone that if I don't feel attractive then I don't feel happy. It affects my mood. Dressing well makes me feel good. | /r/RedPillWomen | 27/05/17 07:52 PM |
