Given what we understand about female mating and dating behavior, it's possible to play the chess out twenty moves and consider the various endgames that women will face in the sexual marketplace. There are actually not very many. In this episode, I discuss the five ways it can end for any given woman, and provide rough probability estimates for each scenario.

    Experienced divorce lawyer here. Great video! If you are not her first choice DO NOT MARRY her. Genuine burning desire or forget it. Trust me on this. You can’t imagine what I have seen.
  • I met my partner at 23. She was 21. I was poor and short but good looking. We had 2 kids. She didn't work for 9 years raising the kids. She stuck with me no job, bad , and good job. We're together 53 years. I couldn't have picked better woman
  • At 73 y/o this is the revelation that I have had over the last six months. That none of the women I ever dated, or lived with, ever showed the slightest interest in any of the things I liked. Not one ever called and said, hey let's do that thing you like so much. I'll be glad to die alone.
  • @clearsailing7993
    I saw a statistic somewhere that said 80 percent of women thought they could have found someone better to marry. I think their husbands can sense this.
  • My ex was honest enough to tell me I wasn't her 1st choice. She even broke up because of this. She was hung up on a guy she never even dated, but was infatuated by. She did me a solid, now I'm with a woman who really appreciates me, and she's still unpartnered.

    I hit it off with a wonderful girl when I was overseas and we had a couple of dates. A few days later I walked out of the train station on my way home from work and there she was, dressed to the nines and waiting for me, not knowing when or if I'd even appear. That was 40 years ago and we're still very happily married.

    So I'm a retired 85 year old aerospace engineer, a parent and grandparent. On the issue physical appearance, it's important that we maintain our physical fitness, no matter what our age may be. That means that I have to be trim, physically fit, healthy, be kind and generous towards others. Now all this is within my control. What I eat is within my control. Exercising is within my control. Sleep is within my control. Healthy life habits are within my control. Who I choose to be good friends with is within my control. How I take care of myself is within my control. It's all within my control is truth be told. Now I will need help with some of these life practices. So I'll Seek That Help! And I'll Follow Their Advice! So can you. At the end of the day, we hold the reins of our life. I wish you well.
  • @Bookhermit
    BIG part missing: Those who get together young, before "value" has really been established, and stay together. They don't show up in the stats because they were never "on the market" for dating.
  • @StereoSpace
    I recall a (conservative) woman a few years ago telling young women that between 18-22 the most important decision they face is choosing a mate. They'll never have a better selection of available men to choose from, and that choice is probably the most important they'll ever make. She was practically burned alive by feminists, but, in my opinion, she was absolutely right.
  • @carmendevine7244
    A 30 year old woman explained this to me when I was 17, her advice was to marry a man I met in college who had good prospects, best advice ever. We got married when I was 21 and he was 22, that was 22 years ago and I feel so grateful for the advice!
  • @andrescer
    protip: avoid women who wear fancy brands (Hermes, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, etc.) They are advertising their high maintenance cost.
  • @fidanza8109
    Your analogies are unparalleled when talking about these topics!! loved this one
  • @craigwillms61
    Married at 21 and my wife was 20. We met at a bar - I was going to be a rockstar (obviously a great prospect) so clearly it was love. I finally woke up at 33 went to tech college and had a very decent career. She had faith in me I guess, and we scraped by until I got my shi - stuff together. It wasn't always easy, but we were committed to the idea of marriage and now 40 years later we are that old couple that made it. It happens -
  • @thefadedhero9824
    The realization that if a woman is with you at all there's a better than 50% chance she's only there because you're the best she could find at the moment and would drop you in an instant for something better really makes you want to run out and find a relationship. And still they wonder why so many men just don't bother.
  • @NanditaDa
    I'm 39 and unpartnered but finding better options than at any other point in my life because I was working through bad health and low self esteem (consequences of a tough childhood) during my twenties. There are many more factors than those mentioned in the video.
  • @julieknudsen6297
    My husband and I have been married for 44 years. When we got married my husband owned just two suitcases with a few clothes. We met at church, and got married during the big recession, so steady work was not a luxury that we were able to enjoy. We have three kids and 10 grandkids. My husband is close to retirement now. He has been a true and loyal husband and father. Had I judged him as an unworthy partner because of his lack of money, or the fact that he couldn’t hold on to a job during our first few years of marriage, I would have missed out on a wonderful relationship along with our beautiful family. BTW, he was willing to marry me in spite of a previous marriage that gave us our first daughter. We are not the beautiful people on the outside that we were back at the beginning, but our time together has produced many more important qualities than just being attractive and employed.
  • @Khan-rz8qi
    In my experiences, it’s honestly the greatest time in history to be a top percent man. Women’s unwillingness to compromise with men they consider of lower value makes the game so more easier. I don’t really have a solution to give the fellas who aren’t in this demographic, but for those that are, enjoy this leverage as much as you want. Women feel like they don’t have the need to compromise, so we shouldn’t feel like we have to either. Fair is fair💯💯
  • The issue won’t fix itself anytime soon. Weak men have given rise to numerous average women thinking they are 10s online. Hookup apps leave numerous average women alpha widowed. So many women genuinely believe they can get and even deserve a high value man. Reality hits them like a truck at some point in their 30s, and they all become bitter and blame men for their problems.
  • @mysticone1798
    It's a blessing to all men that people like you offer relevant facts and real knowledge to this destructive, gynocentric culture of ours. The truth is very powerful, and it's on OUR side!!
