So a couple of years ago (2008-2009) I was really on top of things. I had money, women, a nice place to live and was having a blast.
I banged 6 new chicks in the summer of '08, not including the 2 MLTRs I already had. I dumped two 8s that summer after screwing them, just because I didn't have time for them. It was great.
Fast forward to now. I'm at a low point. I started a new business which is growing but very slowly, I'm pretty much broke, living on a couch with a pal.
One of my MLTRs recently dumped me, and the other one (which started that summer of 08) is probably going to within a month or so. The chicks I dated a couple of years ago are all either married or in long-term relationships, or only want to be friends with me. I play tennis with one (no sex) and I'm going over to watch movies with another (also no sex).
It's a sad, sad situation.
BUT it's interesting to watch these women branch-swing when I'm the branch they're letting go of. It's not the first time this has happened in my life.
The funny thing about men is that their desirability almost completely rests upon their current station in life. So unlike women whose desirability is fixed at an early age and then declines as they age, men have dramatic ups and downs corresponding to their fortunes.
The most interesting parts are 1) knowing what's about to happen and 2) watching women's preparation and justifications for the swing.
It's always a blame-game. I can't really fault them for it, how many people can understand their base primate urges? But it always comes down to something like, "You're more distant" or "You don't really love me" or something like that. And then after a couple months of that, presto, they've found a new guy and I'm done. But what's funny is that when I was rolling high, I was damn-well distant and unloving because I had a half-dozen other women on my mind and they didn't seem to care then! LOL
Now that I'm down low I'm lonely enough to hang out and watch movies with chicks I wouldn't have given the time to two years ago unless they were blowing me.
I think it's important for every man to go through this at least once (I've done it about 3 times so far in my life). It's feast or famine with women. The ones I feel pity for are the guys who start rolling high in their 20s, get married, and then go through a bust period in their 30s or 40s and watch in astonishment as their wives leave them, not understanding the dynamic. That must be horrible.
Of course unless you kill yourself when you're down and out (which is fairly common), it does come back. And the short-sighted women who left start orbiting again to see what you're up to. You get calls from old girlfriends to "see how you're doing" and whatnot.
