To be perfectly honest, she's the best I've been able to do. I realize that this is my fault because I don't have better game enough to secure an equal or hotter chick with less baggage. I've managed to have a one night stand with a hotter girl (educated, good family, fun, interesting) once, but haven't gotten one as hot as her with her qualities to commit to me.Danger said:^^^^^
The root of the problem here is, are you of the opinion that this woman is the best you can do? Why not get a younger one with less baggage?
It will be a very big gamble to let her go in hopes of finding one with less of a past that has the qualities she has. Again, self limiting belief, but I've studied every pickup known to man, and taken an RSD bootcamp. I've done online dating, tons of approaches, speed dating, etc. I was at a point where I was going on 4 dates a week, every week. I've probably gone on hundreds of first dates. I've had two relationships in the past but there were problems- one had severe learning disabilities, the other was 7 years older than me. I found both extremely attractive, but the issues were there.
This is the best I was able to produce. I enjoy looking at her, talking to her, spending time with her. She cooks for me, takes care of me, and really supports me. I know she's doing all these things to secure me as a provider, but it still means a lot to me. She's just fun to be around, and I haven't encountered many like her. My parents even like her (though they don't know about her past). I have such a hard time securing the basics: right age, right education, family-oriented, attractive. There is usually something missing, or the girls that have everything do not bite with me. When I'm with her I don't feel like looking for other girls. In my past relationships I still looked around and I knew it wasn't right.
If I dropped her and she was with another guy and I saw them out and about and I still failed to secure a girl that has her qualities I would be extremely depressed... putting it out there guys. Not trying to be a downer, just being honest.
That's why I'm really trying to come to terms with this rather than just dropping her.
