How often do you meet a woman that is relationship material?

[oc16]

I'm 41 and I've been around long enough that for the most part the bar scene doesn't work and online dating is way overrated.

It seems like the best way to meet women is through your social circle (e.g friend of a friends girlfriend's friend). You usually don't meet a woman from your immediate social circle (e.g close friends).

Other good ways are work, gym classes, educational classes, volunteering.

Anyhow, it seems like alot of quality women are taken and my experience has been I only meet woman that are relationship material once a year.

Meeting the love of your life randomly in a book store, supermarket, ATM line is stuff you see in the movies and not realistic it seems.

I've also come to realize most women have to warm up to you first, that's why social circles, work and classes seem to work best.

Thoughts?

It’s like the more you know about people the worse it gets. I’m sure there’s quality women out there but I’ve never met one who was single or not involved with someone and I don’t believe in stealing a woman away from another man shes involved with, not that I think I’d even have the ability to in most cases.

The women I’ve met that I believed were quality and available were anything but.

If we’re being honest, it’s incredibly hard. Once you realize how much is really out of your control when it comes to finding a good woman who will remain faithful, it becomes a kind of nihilistic experience. For example, I don’t consider myself mgtow but have pretty much given up the idea of finding a good woman. I look at it as all just casual. If I ever DO find a good woman it won’t be because I was actively looking for her.

About 1 in every 20 I deemed relationship material.

The game many men speak of is actually you.

I've been in LTR's my entire life, since my teens im in one way or another inside one.

And yes, you're right in that it's best to know women within ur social circle. Women enjoy inviting good looking men out and showing them off to their girlfriends. That's how I get to meet multiple women.

You also could meet plenty of women just by observing ur immediate surroundings, it's the vibe that you give out in bookstores, supermarkets etc that attracts women, be observant, make eye contact and either nod or give out a soft smile is a good start to open people up.

I don't do OLD. It's not bad per se. But it could make a man lazy to approach women and ultimately make them nervous irl. Make it a habit to be manly in ur approaches - the way you walk, talk, the movements of ur head and body is all key indicators to women.

I would say it's the manly vibe that a man gives out that attracts women.
