Haven't kept track of totals spent, really not that much. I think a large part of this is self selection though, I avoid stupid vapid whores as much as possible. Money spent on dates/hook ups wasn't a wise use of money, but getting the occasional gift for your girlfriend is always a good use of money. In fact, I'd even suggest it as a litmus test for how you feel about your girlfriend.

I was 18, I wanted to have sex, and this ended up inna 3 year relationship where we fucked like bunnies. Yes it was awesome, yes I took her for granted, and we fought consistently. But the makeup sex was always bombin and damn that pussy tasted great and felt great. She wasn't for me tho. Still was in love by the end of it. Didn't spend much besides out to eat a lot which I did anyways. Was worth the XP overall IMO.

I am now wise to this. I was simply naive before. Women often only learn through extreme hardship and exposure to near death or poverty, they won't understand otherwise. You can play it one of two ways, you can either deny her nice things and never expose her to the consequences of her decisions (for some this is necessary), or you can stash money into shares etc that you know you'll be using within a year or two, and just let her dig a hole, then bail her out. However this only works with that small % of women who have self awareness.

Women will fuck your life up for fun, anon.

I dated this one attractive woman recently, for the sake of my true story I will describe her as a 10. That's right, I was banging a perfect 10.

I started getting older and thinking it was approaching time to settle down. Got engaged.

Two weeks later my girlfriend found out I was engaged. My new fiancee also learned about my girlfriend. That would have been a great day to stay in bed and not answer my phone.

But I digress. After that getting dropped like a rock by 2 women on the same day, I was completely alone, depressed, and felt sorry for myself and victim status for 2 weeks.

And I was almost broke too. So I picked myself up and began focusing on personal improvement, doing much better, and money started accumulating.

It was around this time my ex began chatting me up more. I told her I was doing great and thriving. I specifically told her being single was a tremendous value to my life as I was able to save money and get back on my feet quickly.

She must have noticed how happy I had become with my newfound freedom because she was texting constantly, every day. By the end of the week we were back together. Fml!

Been with the same girl for 8-9 years.
We don't live together and we usually split things we do together. I usually pay more, simply because I earn a more and I don't mind.
For example, if we go on holiday, she'll usually cover the flights and I'll usually cover the hotels (or vice versa if flights are more expensive).
It definitely costs me less than consistently chasing new women would and we have a lot of similar interests so a lot of the things we do together, I'd do alone anyway.
If we broke up, I would probably go full prostitution because I genuinely don't think I'd be lucky enough to find another woman with her sensibilities.
Chasing women costs you money. Long term relationships are probably a net positive financially (before kids).

Met discord thot, stopped buying link when I was putting all I had into it. Now only have 50k instead of almost triple that. I was adding it up on asos, ebay, 6pm, and others but started getting depressed when it crossed 20k and I saw that was almost two years ago. Can't even begin to imagine what the hotels or restaurants have run me. I'm perfectly content just eating a ribeye or fried chicken for dinner with some frozen vegetables. I spent about $500/mo and ate like a king, wine or gay hipster beer with every meal too. After meeting this bitch I can spend that much in a week now. Kind of sucks too because I only make 80k/yr. She's eating all my play money I used to throw on shitcoins and fun toys.
She doesn't even do anal. It's really become a heated issue though. She's probably going to leave me soon because I've grown cold towards here and stopped buying her clothes and makeup. Only expensive frozen meals now but only because she's too stupid to cook and literally starving her seems cruel. She'll either break and comply or break and leave me. I am sick of being used though. She doesn't have to work and found a man with his own house that is a millionaire and makes decent money on top of that. If she can't spare her pooper just for my sake now and then even though it "doesn't interest her" and she "doesn't like it" then she can fuck off. I don't like wasting all my money but I did because I was stupid enough to believe in love. If she isn't stupid enough to believe in love too then I'll just go and be victimized again because this time she's totally different and not like my other exes. It's a weird kind of masochism but then again even guys that play the lottery hit the jackpot sometimes. All I need is one good girl that treats me, right and doesn't hit me or belittle me. I'll gladly spend every fucking penny I have on such a critter. What good is money if you aren't trying to buy happiness with it anyway? I'll even go as old as 36, five years older than me.

Two that I've been with have said that. I'm still stuck with one.
The last did do anal but had her share of other problems. She slit her wrists and smeared the blood all over the walls and my computer then left a huge stain where she fell unconscious. It looked like a damn horror movie scene when I saw it. Multiple units of blood, two weeks in the hospital, surgeries, and then a couple months in the psych hospital after that. She's still alive at least, but it was not the attention kind of cutting because she did that shit all the time before the suicide attempt. Didn't even leave a note behind. Just called me at work and left a voice mail apologizing over and over again in slurred speech. I knew something was wrong. Had I not called the police to my house for a wellness check she would definitely be gone now. Lots of problems but I still love her despite marrying my current bitch. Fortunately it's not legal and not a common law state so when it ends the only damage is what her crazy ass does to my house, body, and possessions. I will probably run back to the suicide gf like a loser and complain about her alcohol addiction but at least we'll have true love. She will die a good 10 - 20 years before me by the looks of things, but quality over quantity right? She's not even half as pretty as my fake wife but I think about her every time I jerk off and oftentimes even when fucking my useless no anal fake wife. We text in secret all the time so it should be a smooth transition at least.

I'm told I am attractive but I am extremely autistic so my height and other shit don't matter. I was always a lanklet until I found /fit/ and started frauding but still do the muh hardgainer cope so haven't put on much weight, but what I did gain looks way better than I did before getting on. I'm just really dumb and lucked upon an above average redhead that happens to be exceptionally lazy and entitled. Super religious too so I'm never wrong. That sounds cool but she knows the real me and any time I do something she dislikes it's demonic influence or Satan making me like that. I'm a homeschooled preachers kid too so it's harder to resist such logic than you'd think. Stupid as hell but we actually recite Bible verses in anger at each other when going at it. She gives me hell but I can be just as cruel as her with words. The fact she doesn't work and got fired from every job she had and can't cook or clean worth a shit makes excellent ammo, even if it ultimately makes me look bad for not being strong enough to domesticate her shrew ass. I'm miserable and want out but when I tell her to leave she just goes to the guest bedroom and cries. I tried clarifying that I meant to leave me and my house but she only cried louder. It feels hopeless a lot of times.
>>26810453
Very true. She was crazy but deep down is the sweetest, gentlest, bent person I know. I actually regret not treating her better. I was a hardass tightwad with her. I throw money around on the next one and get treated like shit. Perhaps there's a connection here but it doesn't seem fair the bitch got nice, stuff while I could hardly spend $20 on the good one. I made a lot less back then but it wouldn't have sent me to the poor house to be a little better there. I guess that's where life experience comes from though. Can only hope next round goes better than the previous until you figure out a winning formula.
