The primary reason why we like women is their looks. We are biologically programmed to see fertility in them and that's what we do. Any man who comforts himself in a woman's arms, seeks warmth and love from her and thinks he needs to "connect" has deep issues in their subconscious and the two most known ones are white knight and mommy issues. There is a huge number of people in the world with either one or the other and this is what has led to men thinking they need a woman to complete their lives. Go connect with your parents, with your friends and then connect to a woman, but be always ready and willing to leave if she becomes too comfortable.
Men should always keep other women at hand. If you have the time, have options. If one girls decides to stray, you got the other girls still available. It is natural to us as men to want to bang multiple chicks. Have you noticed than after sex, right after, you get this desire of wanting to "leave the crime scene" LOL while she is just bugging you, trynna hug you, trynna stay close to you? It's cause that's your testosterone and biological programming telling you "job done here, get away now" and it's her estrogene telling her "his job is done, try to lock this man down now for protection, caressing, love, goods". Of course we are humans we connect deeper than mere animals, but that side of us should be listened to as well.
No matter what a woman tries in the first few weeks or months after sex (and they will try everything) to lock you down in a commitment, never fully commit AND most importantly, never commit first. And have the DGAF attitude. When they see that, they can't leave you. Women don't leave a guy who doesn't give a ****. If they sense you care a lot or that you give a **** much...you're dead.
I know it seems like a cold world and everything, but this is how it is and men should be used to this. No whining allowed or else you're ****ed. Go about your life, do things you like, do things that fulfill you. There is beauty in life and you will not find that in women only. Use them only as complementary to your other, main goals in life.
