The biggest joke is that this guy is an extremely anti feminist guy and would be offended to even be featured on this subreddit.

Or a guy that can’t be bothered to put sheets on his bed.

i lost my virginity on a floor mattress

I did this. I lost my virginity to a guy who rented an apartment and had only a tv and games in his living room. Not even a couch. For all his meals , he's only eat chicken and lightly seasoned rice.

He lived there for months. Months !! Needless to say we broke off shortly after. Don't know what I was thinking.

Ouu this post just called my ass out!

Sounds like my ex and his one lumpy flat pillow. Ugh, never again.

Not me thinking that the guy who quit jobs every 2 months was gonna turn it around and be a good partner 🤡😭

I am grateful someone wrote about this. It had been on my mind lately!

I think that secretly, we are encouraged by society to look for potential and confound it with the real thing.

The issue here is that there is a chasm between being something and the potentiality of being something. Anyone can be anything but very few have the abortion to actually accomplish it.

The hurtful part comes from the man, the scrote who laughs in our faces and says " but I am not those things, I never liked to you about being that kind of person one day".

That ambition to actually be something comes with a price.

Just having the potential of being something costs nothing. Actually, the more time passes, the less potential.

NVMs sick to playing with the potential because it suits them. They mislead women, they lie them with deception and when they get caught they all fall back on the same defense "but I was never that/ but I never said I wanted that". They never said or did explicitly but they allowed it to be implied and they deceived.

That's what happend when you overprotect and domesticate women growing up. Too much delusion and isolation will put a void.

Omg lol... who is this guy?

This is what I always tell my friends who frequently use the "potential" argument in defense of a man who is the complete and total opposite. His actions have to show his potential. Don't tell me he's an 'investment' when all you've seen him in is through rose colored glasses and someone whose judgment isnt clouded sees the truth.
