I’m kinda “new” here, but I was wondering reading some stuff about marriage and serious relationships… Am I the only one who doesn’t believe that modern women want something more than some attentions and a man who is rich and in the top 1% like a “prize”? At September of 2025 I see a lot of videos that shows how men (the majority at least) don’t want to meet new girls and they don’t wanna date or talk to girls nowadays. I think this is way harder even if you’re top 1%, but you also have a burp fetish, they may consider you strange or even worse (I had like 80% of them who cannot even burp on command). Personally I’ve had kinda a lot of success w women (they prioritize my appearance saying things like high ratings, etc.. but I hate this thing tbh) but I don’t wanna get in a relationship rn because a lot of people, even if they seem interested, they look like an empty shell for me.. (sorry for my English, I’m Italian and I wanna know how this situation is seen in this community and how it is in other countries:sweat_smile:
)
I disagree with this notion. First of all, we as men are not entitled to anything, and this “1%” discussion is a bit strange; not sure what this references, but, it feels strangely “alpha male” to me. Secondly, I think the expectation that what you bring to the table is important in any relationship. Your career is only one aspect of that. So, you personality and outlook on life also fall into that equation. If you go into the world with a jaded worldview (on women or otherwise) then you will get that back, in my opinion. The defensiveness of this mindset does not allow for you to grow. Anyways, I’m happily married to a woman who loves me, and I was able to work through my own stuff to realize that the “issues” I’ve had in the past with women were very much of my own doing. I have held many conversations similar to this with other friends and they share my viewpoint.
You may wanna lay off the red pill content dude
This looks like the opposite side of the “men only want a trophy wife” coin. While it’s definitely true for some, there are always going to be people who want real relationships, even if it doesn’t feel like it. It’s understandable to feel jaded but please remember this doesn’t reflect reality, it’s an oversimplification.
If any person is getting together with someone else because they have money, means they are not interested in an actual relationship at all. You start and build a relationship with someone who you share common ideology with, and then build on that structure to either create a family, or if both parties are not interested in kids then it’s to just continue on their partnership. Attractiveness is what brings people in but personality is what makes people stay. Start thinking with that knowledge and a relationship (that’ll last) will come easy.
