So something interesting I observed when talking with a female friend.

She had been dating this rather homely yet rich guy and never felt threatened by other women and felt secure in him. HE ended up lying and 'cheating' on her by making out with some younger girl. Her high-school sweetheart whom she married also cheated on her too. (They got an annulment)

Next up she lands herself a whale of an 'Alpha'. Very rich, very tall, handsome, very smart and of high status. His status became an addiction for her and she fed off his status and the attention they would get together.

BUT, she was constantly threatened by other women and his ability to hurt her effortlessly if he wanted. (non-direct dread game)

So to combat feeling powerless, she would kiss other dudes in their home while he was in the other room.

She told me this gave her a sense of protection, a sense of a way out in case he didn't play ball.

Basically she felt an intense need to prove she was still desirable and could get another man easily if he hurt her and she couldn't be hurt again if she knew other guys wanted her bad.
