Female romance novels are absurd on a conceptual level. Almost every protagonist of these books could be (and usually halfway already are) in a relationship if they wanted at almost any time. It's especially absurd in current year when the average dating app instantly puts 80 dudes, who'd rearrange their whole week to spend time with a girl, literally at a woman's fingertips. It would make sense if the women were severely damaged in some physical or mental way, but they're usually just completely basic as fuck, down to their taste in generic tall and broody bad boys.

If the protagonists were outstanding, the lonely women who self-insert themselves into the novel couldn't relate.

I pressed "Update". There was the post - Anon had really replied! I hadn't even allowed myself to expect it, but there it was. And so I started reading, hungrily devouring every word. But when I got to the end, I realized something.

Anon - the guy I'd known for years, the obese keyboard warrior with the greasy fingers and the overwhelming stench, the one I'd never taken a second look at - he was a faggot.

But not only that - he was an *autistic* faggot.

That was the best part of all, because he would see a shitpost, a simple joke, and he'd get this cute little gleam in his eye, real serious-like, and start feverishly typing out all the unhinged hypotheticals he could come up with.

I knew it was wrong - that he was my intellectual inferior, that he could never understand basic social cues - but when I saw the seethe on that post, when I thought about his face getting all red, the drool spilling all over his keyboard; I just couldn't help myself.

I clicked the post number, and started to reply. As I typed, faster and faster, I felt a rush come over my entire body.

And I knew, in my heart of hearts, that Anon wouldn't be able to resist me either. I knew the kind of power I had over him.

I knew that he would give me - my breathing is getting heavy just thinking about it - a (You).

In fairness, a lot of dudes on dating apps are only interested in sex. And a lot of women are not interested in sex at all, and only do it to please the husband. And if a women mentions no interest in sex at all, that filters a lot of men. And lots of the ones that stick around are still seeking sex regardless. Nothing wrong with that, but I think a lot of women want an environment where they can be emotionally close with men without any expectation of sex. I have a Christian woman sister who isn't interested in sex at all. She said she only wants sex after marriage. And even then, she only wants sex when having children and then never again. She's super sweet. And she had chemistry with men on dates but the second she mentions she doesn't like the idea of sex they move on. I think it's just incompatible libidos for a lot of people.

I've read two of Hoover's books. They were both dogshit. I actually don't mind these types of books. I classify them as pulp fiction for women, and I find oldschool Harlequin novels to be occasional fun reads, but Hoover's books aren't "fun." They're just pure mellow drama occasionally interspliced with bad attempts at humor and even worse attempts at sex scenes. They're just pure mellow drama. The novel equivalent of sugar water: neither as sweet as actual juice or wine, nor as good for you as regular water. And if these types of books aren't "fun," they've literally got nothing going for them, because they sure as fuck aren't spiritually or intellectually stimulating.

From what I've seen, it comes from bad mental health and being uncompromising. Generally a relationship should be balanced so both people can grow alongside each other. However, if someone has mental health issues which prevent them from growing or healing mentally, or they've gotten so used to playing power dynamics, then that all goes out the window. Pretty much every relationship they go in will fail or turn unhealthy.

I understand the Christian belief against pre-marital sex and to be honest, sex can muddy emotions considerably when choosing a mate. Does she expect to have sex for procreation and that's it? Doesn't Paul speak about men and women fulfilling their marital duties (read: sex) lest the other step out and cheat? I think she's setting herself up for failure with that mindset.

I would avoid online dating sites. Participate in social events. My Christian sister self isolates. And while she could have many marriage candidates if she tried to, she self-isolates because of social anxiety. I've been pushing her to go to churches and conventions (like dragoncon, because she loves lord of the rings). But she's so socially anxious is hard for her. But she really loves kids and wants to have kids before she can't have kids, so she's starting to socialize more outside. I suggest you do similar. Whether it's libraries, meet ups, or any social activity. You need to touch grass. And don't go with the expectation of finding a romantic partner. Just try to vibe with people and form friendly chemistry. My friends found success this way. I think you guys can too. It's difficult, but focus on events and engagements you personally find fun so you get something out of it regardless. Don't spend your entire 20s and early 30s entirely on youtube indoors like she did.

Yeah, I'm a femoid so I can give her realistic perspective without offending her. Sexual partners have needs. And she admitted that realistically she may need to do some sex therapy. She also says she might be ace, even tho she hates lgbt lingo and is against lgbt, which makes sense since she's a fundamentalist Christian. Ive seen a lot of couples, both married and unmarried, fall apart because of incompatible sex drives. I don't really know the solution to that sorta stuff. But I think in general, if you have a strong emotional connection with your spouse, it gets easier. And can sometimes lead to more intimacy. So I'd just focus on getting emotional fulfillment on those around you. You may be surprised what routes open for you when you live life this way.

What's necessary in this case is the instruction of a seasoned lothario such as myself.

I wouldn't worry about it. Your theoretical sister worships a false christ and a false god, and even the secular/materialist cope about "muh genes, muh reproduction" is an unsatisfying attempt to locate meaning in family/reproduction, and the sex act itself (which is both lazy and agreeable because it goes with the extra-high importance that modern society places on the sex act itself, more even than past societies). The truth of the matter is that having a family does not confer genuine meaning on life, just as believing in god fails to do the same. Rather, there are only chimeras of meaning, things that "feel good" and which are therefore valued. The whole sex-having, family business can bring about psychologically positive feelings and happy stupid brain chemical dumps, but these aren't meanings, they're only mechanisms. Also, existence itself ceases to have even the possibility of a meaning at the moment of your death, because you yourself, the most important person in the entire universe from your own perspective (if you are a right-thinking being), have ceased to exist.

Whatever value exists in having sex and having a family only exists for a given person during that person's lifespan. Obviously for most, this is enough, but it's also beside the point. From the point of view of the individual, the only one that counts, evolutionary fitness/continuation of the family line is just a pleasant idea to entertain.

Meaning can only come about through some transcendant external thing, not for internal arbitrary reasons, as certain strains of existentialism desperately postulate. And since there is no transcendent external thing that actually exists or which actually matters (whether it's a god or one's human community, the two major things which are usually mistaken for conferring "meaning" on life), there is no such thing as genuine meaning. One's own self in one's own life is all that counts for anything. The other never matters.

You're kinda using the "I didn't know he was a toxic piece of shit excuse" that girls always use after a bad breakup, but that usually falls apart under any degree of scrutiny. Women are masters of sniffing out bad eggs when the guy is 'suspicious,' gives them the 'ick,' or is 'creepy,' etc. All of which are just womanese for "I don't find him attractive." However, women's magical intuition for male bullshit oddly ceases to function when the guy is hot and turns them on. Suddenly, a lot of those otherwise toxic red flags just contribute to the guy's charm.

His anger issues become "Oh, he's so passionate."
His duplicity become "Oh, he's mysterious and interesting."
His history of violence becomes "Oh, I bet he can protect me from (less attractive) violent men."
His possessiveness and lack of boundaries become "Oh, he's such a passionate lover."

And in order for it to finally click that these really are vices and not virtues, a woman has to go out of her way subject herself to this in bad relationship after bad relationship until the halo effect finally wears off (though, sometimes it never does). To say this is part of the mate-selection process for women is nonsense, because if you blindfolded a woman and described these red flaggers in detail but threw in a random tidbit about them being very short, fat, or ugly, 100% of women would say no to a date with them, because he sounds like a loser with serious issues. Swap those traits with tall, ripped, and hot, most would still say no because women are never honest about these types of things, but a hefty chunk would be hitting up his DMs afterwards.

Of course men aren't exempt, but a lot of people still think that women are when they're just as vulnerable to the Halo Effect. It's just that for women who go after the hottest guys, unlike their male equivalents, they can get quick access to these dudes and fuck them. This gives a lot of girls the delusion that these dudes are "attainable" when they really aren't for most women. It's the equivalent to getting on a rollercoaster ride thinking it's a passenger train. It's not actually going to take you anywhere. You're just gonna get a short thrill and end up rght back up where you started. Now, if she's aware that she's just going for a short ride and is looking for a short summer thrill, that's whatever. But a lot of girls honestly don't know this, and can't tell a rollercoaster from an passenger train to save their fucking life.

Because most guys are not tall enough (figuratively and/or literally) to get on the ride in the first place, they never encounter this dilemma and just become simps and admirers for girls they'll never get to date or fuck.

Dating apps are the most fucked thing ever invented, every time I think I have internalized how evil and demented they are and I think I know that the women on there are fucked in the head, I use them for a month or two and forget all of it and go right back to feeling like something is wrong with me for having such a bad time. And I actually GET dates. I'm already doing better than most on the apps and it's still awful.

Then I start seeing an actual woman, almost always a woman I met in real life, and I come back to my senses. I'll check on the apps after dating a normal woman for a while and finally be able to see, what the fuck was I thinking using this thing?

Men are absolutely starved for "validation" and they don't even know it. These satanic apps have them thinking they don't even exist. It's beyond feeling bad or hating yourself, it makes you feel like you aren't even real, because real people can "manifest" themselves and get noticed, get responses, get dates. Apps make millions of perfectly good men think they are slipping out of reality and into some kind of cosmic garbage bin on a daily basis, it's traumatizing and horrifically evil. Ban this shit.

No, the real problem for women is that when you're allowed to pick whatever you want, whenever you want, you're going to naturally and unconsciously change your hierarchy of value. It wrecks the grading curve. What would have been an A or an A+ for you is downgraded to a B- or a C, because you have access to genetic accident tier A++++++'s. These now become your new A's and A+'s. And there's even subtle differences between them, so naturally you create little hierarchies of preference about which demigods are your favorites and which demigods are "mid," and you start to set your eyes on true elder gods as the only real A+'s.

The difference is, the A range will FUCK you as long as you're young, thin, and pretty, but it doesn't want anything beyond that. So when a woman starts looking to settle down around 27, she has been spoiled by years of skewed standards. All the potential love of her life type guys are invisible to her, the way that today we throw out perfectly good food our ancestors would have made something great out of, because we're lazy and entitled and used to everything being 100% pristine in the store. Average and below average women are now living out the female equivalent of male porn fantasies for 10 years before settling down. Tinder only reinforces this because you're literally swiping through men the way men skim for porn on pornhub.

Zizek proposed the hypothesis that men enjoy sex per se and they're mostly thinking "I can't believe this is happening" during sex because the realization of the moment is the goal, while women enjoy sex through narratives and via narration, so, their number one thought is "I can't wait to tell that to my girlfriend". That is to say, women read and write for other purposes than men. OP can't wrap his mind around the fact that women don't care about the male struggle or getting a fitting partner in the same way men care about it. Women readers care about female power fantasies, gaining status, having lots of drama along the way, and finally being chosen by the coolest, richest, most handsome cowboy/highlander/vampire/surgeon/pirate/millionaire around. Most of women's literature is pornography for women.

I was always curious about this. Are women somehow both the best at knowing character and the worst? They can smell out the weird, dangerous incel from the second she looks at him. But women around me have been absolutely incapable of discerning whether a quality man has any real connection to her or not.
I have "Chad" friends, mostly mentally ill, but good looking, charming dudes that somehow, in our rural area always find fresh pussy. Somehow these grown ass women think this guy, that has basically pumped and dumped, or cheated on a bunch of girls will change for her.

in short women are not only evil but also are the main proponents in encouraging and perpetuating it, their only saving grace is that their evilness and perpetuation of it comes from mere stupidity
What is especially sinister is that it is not enough for them to be evil themselves, but that even if they were to be rendered impotent, as they were much throughout history, thus rendering the evil wrought from them impotent as well, they still find ways to indirectly spread evil by selecting for it in men and encouraging evil to bloom among the more potent male half of humanity.

Truly the story of Adam and Eve is the most important, profound, and concise depiction of the main issue of humanity and I guess theres a reason why, in the collective wisdom of the ancients, it worked its way to becoming the first and most important story.

This is 100% the case. It's why women hate PUAs so much, because a PUA is just a loser who has figured out the female algorithm to such a degree that he can, like a master snake oil salesman, lock in, bedazzle, and close the deal before the woman comes to her senses the next morning and realize she's been swindled into giving up her pussy to a low value man.
