Having a fantastic relationship myself, I agree with the OP's advice. However, if you choose the wrong mate (I did that the first time), no amount of work or loving behavior is going to make the relationship good. You need compatibility and both have to put their mate's best interests on the same level as their own, at least most of the time.

IDK, if the OP can get a cute girl and be in a great relationship without being a piece of **** then more power to him.

i guess you knew you were going to have a few internet-fights on your hands when you posted it
Oh you want Internet weirdness?

The same happens to me when women find out I expect them to pay for their own way, or that I won't go out of my way to accommodate them.

Why should a man ignore a feature that women often purposely put out for display? When women dress more like LADIES (blouse vs tube top), they generally don't have any of these problems.

Just look at your photo in your profile Jet, you have some kind of tank top on that will attract men to stare at your breast.

I always pay my way, so I don't worry about that, but I'm sure there are women out there who would get irritated by a man who won't pay, just as there are men out there who get irritated when women won't sleep with them on the first date.

As for my photo, you're actually the very first person on this site to bring up the cleavage factor, and I fully admit it's on display in that photo. I usually wear plain colored slightly v necked shirts and with my arms cross like they are in that picture, it's hard for me not to show some sort of cleavage in that position.

I have noticed though, that no matter what I wear (blouse, tank top, turtleneck etc etc) men will still stare. There's not much I can do about that except wear baggy sweatshirts all the time. Of course, if you come up to me and say hi without staring or leering I'll probably be more receptive to talk.

Hmmm, I have a foreign female friend who has HUGE boobs (and she's not fat). However, they are hardly even noticeable by the way she dresses.

She usually wears blouses with long skirts and I notice that she gets more favorable complements then all the more proactive looking American girls.

Seriously, dude? your entire thread is one big personal attack. You come out swinging from the first post, now you're complaining about the inevitable reaction.

most of the guys here are looking to understand, are looking for truthful answers to their questions, and solutions to their problems.

you aren't here to deliver the truth. what you're here to do is to bash these unsuccessful men in front of a crowd of women and feed these women exactly what THEY want to hear. You seem to think that women agreeing with you is an indication that you're correct, rather than just the natural result of telling someone what they want to hear.
