When it comes down to it a lot of male behavior all revolves around finding the best mate we can get.

This video was from the Dr. Phil show and I thought it was pretty interesting as well. Ignore the title of the video please I can't change that, don't want to start a flame war.

To be honest, if I had a higher paying job, I would probably have more time for women. As they say, time is money. Otherwise, I don't my luck changing too much with women. I am already doing quite well with them.

Men value love while women love value.

This "value" doesn't necessarily mean money.

I don't get how people develop these deep complexes over contingencies.. "If I am, then.." "If then" "If then." It's like a workout routine!! If then, repeat. If then, repeat.

Jesus Cristos!!!!

You're good enough as is? Can't you first accept that? And, maybe your luck will finally change??

All these "if thens" really are self-limiting and illogical. Confidence: Embrace who you are and don't ask for forgiveness for being YOU!

What kind of "value" are you referring to?

Inner game such as confidence in all, if not most, areas of life.

This sounds like a sure way to go crazy. Men who have trouble with dating should just do what they like and not worry about it too much. If you get to my age with no luck according to women on here there will be women who aren't attracted to you but will still date you because they are desperate but I wouldn't accept that.

"Do what they like" as in hobbies and passions? I agree, that will equate to inner confidence as you're doing what you enjoy in life- a.k.a a step on succeeding in your own happiness. But "do what you like" in the sense of dating will most likely go two ways, you randomly doing something right or wrong. So why not learn what's right and wrong?

The "desperate" people will be easy to spot and should be avoided, male or female. Desperation is a sign of co-dependence, meaning they don't even like themselves.

I always heard that there were no rules to dating so how could a person be right or wrong?

That's true, women love a man with confidence.

Yes and only because i would be out of the house more, out and about spending thereby coming into more opportunities. Otherwise it's not neccessary, I've secured romantic interests flat broke as well as fat wallet.
