Why does abundance mentality work for so many people?

When your phone is at 10% and you don't have a charger, do you use it as much? Do you sit on reddit, watch Netflix and YouTube, and listen to music? No. You coddle that thing and constantly think about how it's about to die and you still need to order an Uber home or text for that booty call, hoping it doesn't die and fuck you over.

Oneitis is your phone at 10%. Constantly worrying and making sure it won't die on you. Abundance mentality is your phone at 100% while also being near your charger. You can do whatever the fuck you want and not worry about it.

Keep it 100 and know you got plenty of other girls. This oneitis is just 10% of your full battery.

What's the question exactly?

Why does it work, or why do so many people have it?

If they're just as hot or better than my Oneitis, I won't think about her as much or at all.

Use your brain

Because it hurts their ego. When she shit-test or nag it's because she thinks she is better and/or deserves better. When you show abundance, you destroy the manipulation ground and things go your way.

Because it works. Why an hammer works for so many nails? Bacause it's a valid tool!

Abundance Mentality keeps one from focusing TOO MUCH effort and energy on one person without risking the possibility there will be no payoff in the form of a relationship, sex, or both.

It also reduces the possibility for others to take advantage of someone else due to unrequited romantic interest.

If you're in your car thinking about your next destination you won't care if you hit a pebble on the road. If you don't have a destination, even a pebble can seem like a big important rock.

Not the best metaphor but I hope you're getting what I'm trying to say.
