If your SMV is high enough you shouldn't need to actively "keep your options open". Options will simply be present if you are socially connected.

11. There is actually a new test---which is supposedly validated---that has one question: Do you consider yourself a narcissist? Apparently narcissists acknowledge their narcissism and think that there is nothing wrong with it---a hallmark feature of a personality disorder.

^ Couldn't agree more. Look, not many of us like being part of "the system". I hate it too, but you have to look at your alternatives. I'm not saying yo HAVE to work 9-5 and have a mortgage and a wife and all that. But money is freedom---freedom to make your own choices and invest in your own...

Why has only one person called the OP out on getting involved with a taken woman?? You asked for it dude. Also consider that you are THIRTY FOUR and these kids are in their early 20's, and you are thinking about pulling some Jerry Springer love triangle blowout sh!t? Grow the fvck up man. Shut...

Agreed, and I like your other takes on this topic Danger. No offense Jaylan, but your attitude is waxing beta on this one. There are millions of men out there who will profess to "come to the rescue" of any poor dame who was struck by a man. That seems noble, but at it's core it is...

It depends on the market, the property, your station in life, and many other factors. One is not categorically better than the other, but both have their advantages and disadvantages. The obvious advantage with renting is that you don't have to maintain the property and your commitment is...

I'll chime in as a guy who has "one of the good ones". I'll start by saying that people in general are a disappointment to me, and that's perhaps because I have set my expectations too high. The older I get, the more self-absorbed friends seem to become and the less I can rely on them for...

I did well with online dating, but I was never a deft player in the bars. I couldn't get out of my own way. I think what's changing dating more than anything is BOTH online dating and smartphones. Young women have developed this huge sense of value inflation because of all the thirsty gameless...

Excellent, thanks for the link.

I have a medical master's. My advice may not be specific to your field. Generally speaking for science or social science fields you will need a strong GPA, strong GRE, and at least 1-2 years of internship or research assistant work in your field. Psych may be a little more relaxed than medical...

Yep, never pursue taken women. It shows weakness and a scavenger mentality. Real men hunt their own game, not poach someone else's.

And that is why you will enjoy more success than 90% of guys out there whose #1 objective is to get laid. Do you know how much more attention I get now that I am happily monogamous? I really think part of it is I just don't care about getting laid, so I present myself differently. And as a...

I would have played a sport, and started lifting earlier than 20. Also I would have attended a college where I could get in-state tuition, and stopped trying to fit in where I didn't belong. I've never been a party boy or beer drinker (even though I did all that for years); I would have been...

He's kinda right. Not that I'm in any way advocating a threesome within a marriage, but I think when push comes to shove if your girl/wife is really in love with you she would rather you bang the 2 of them together than go behind her back. My girl has intimated that she would do a...

Some daily contact is "normal". Girls are slightly different but in general, if her interest in you is high, she will text or call you 3-20 x a day. A day never goes by where I don't get at least 10 texts from my gf. But like I said, all depends on interest level. I've been in LTRs with girls...

On the note of introspection, not only are they not capable of this to any meaningful degree (the vast majority of them), but they aren't even AWARE they cannot be introspective and thus accountable for their mistakes. You can tell them they aren't introspective or accountable till you 're blue...

My girlfriend compliments me daily. Looks, advice, attributes, etc. And I thank her multiple times daily for all the help she gives me. Laundry, cleaning, errands, everything. I used to date a girl who almost never had anything positive to say about me. After a while I started to wonder why...

QFT.

^Once again I agree zekko; it does seem the game and it's players have changed since I was last heavily involved. I've been coaching a buddy in his dating ventures and it seems the flake factor has not only gone up, but girls are even flaking after early lays now, which I scarcely had to deal...
