If you think being toxic will be the only way to keep her interested, you’re not a very interesting person. A piece of shit yes, a potential LTR partner? No

I prefer a man who's emotionally mature, if he doesn't show an interest in me, I'm just gonna leave it alone. There's billions of men on this planet, why would I waste my time chasing someone?

It was actually the toxic stuff that made me consider leaving. It is true that if there is effort on both sides, after the arguments and problems, a different emotional connection can occur and that can be nice. But if it is constant, it becomes emotionally draining and you rethink the relationship. I think the video goes from one extreme to the other though. Messages every day is part of being good? Man, I think people need their space from time to time.

I've seen this terrible dating advice not just in red pill manosphere circles but I have seen it pop up in the mainstream media. This idea that one should hard to get or be hot and cold to maintain the other person interested. They give women this advice too. Personally I hate this advice, I don't like games, I like clarity and honesty.

@.boyshavefeelstoo? 500k likes? Why lie?

Social status is everything, so coming across as too enthusiastic about dating her will make her feel as if your status is lower than her own: that you aren't a guy with many different options in dating but choose her - which is flattering and incredibly arousing for women - and this makes her to lose interest.

edit: misspelling

This could literally be 500k+ 12y olds (no offense). In fact it likely is. But that's just not meaningful to describe the world. So I wouldn't get hung up on the counter. It's become positively meaningless by now.

This clip plays on a dilemma that growing up I suspect plenty of young men faced ond/or will continue to face: Is there a free bonus I might be missing by acting differently to the way that I am. Oh god, am I being too nice?

It's relatable as a simplification, but that doesn't make it true to the n-th degree. And definitely not for all ages.

I think texting is a pretty useless medium. I don't enjoy it particularly. It's great to set something up and give a ping every once in a while. But focus on real person interaction, anything up from a phone-call. You'll actually figure out if you like each other.

In terms of the situation described. If you want to text someone, text them, if you don't then don't. If they lose interest in you based on how you behave this is fine so long as you're being genuine to yourself.

In my mind, over-texting specifically is only a problem if you have too little going on in your life. I can see how that's unattractive. But instead of forcing myself to not do something, I'd look for priorities outside of any current romantic conquest. Because you know, that seems like a good idea.
