I was fatally attracted to men with good looks, super-confidence and status - but they didn't make me happy: Dating coach tells single women it is time to ditch the addiction to alpha males and bag a beta if they want long-term love

As a biologist, I know quite a bit about animal behaviour - I studied monkey mating strategies for my PhD - but I confess that I have made some poor choices when it comes to finding a mate of my own.

Yup—the manosphere teaches that women are generally social creatures who can be fooled by social “cues”. They are particularly vulnerable to the opinion of their “friends” or peers—so it is not good enough for a woman to be attracted to you, her friends must be as well.

Lots of women are into "status", of having the guy that all their friends would want.

The danger for the woman is that her "friends" WILL hit on her guy behind her back. It got tiresome for me.

And, in our annual meeting some years back we all decided that we didn’t want you.

I’ve got the minutes of the meeting around here somewhere.

Yeah, those are the flags for a narcissistic TWOT.

Your Mom told you about them. You should have listened.

From the article:

Don’t go to bed for months

Resist all temptation to rip each other’s clothes off and leap into bed before you have properly got to know each other. This is not for reasons of morality, or for fear that you might appear too ‘easy’, but because sex sets off a cascade of brain chemicals which can get you strongly attached to a man before you have had a chance to work out if he is good for you or not.


This may actually be the key to her success, but not for the reason she lists.

It filters for men who actually enjoy her company, versus those only tolerating her if they get laid.

Of course, the flip side of this is that SHE needs to be content with the kind of men who are willing to date her for her company, AND needs to be the kind of woman whose company men will enjoy.

“It filters for men who actually enjoy her company, versus those only tolerating her if they get laid.”

Let us try rewording that—”It filters for men who have no other good alternatives than enjoying her company.”

;-)

The problem older women have is that they think they are still pitching in the major leagues but their fast ball has no movement on it and they can’t get a curve ball over the plate any more.

You are wrong. It was very common for doctors, lawyers and yes, even clergy to visit the local madames house on occation. No social stigma at all.

Speaking as a Medicare-aged guy married to a woman not much younger, her pitching still works, as well as being enjoyable company the rest of the time.

As a biologist she probably has a large pride of cats.

My daughter-in-law is the same.

Not interested in being a boss-babe.

A traditional woman looking for a traditional man. She locked my oldest down right away and got him to the altar. Didn’t matter that he wasn’t pulling 6 figures.

Not all women are looking for Chads. They want godly men and are rejecting the feminist trend. Those girls make great wives.

The word, wh_r_, doesn’t immediately come up on video commentary search.

Men are on to the fig leaves, if it takes over a year to uncover Eve.

Satan does all with his slaves to corrupt the Adam dna.

Joseph “being a righteous man” did not want a dna corrupted womb.
