>>29015325>come to the conclusion that traditional marriage is fruitlessGood news! You're an idiot and will one day reconsider all the stupid ass conclusions you made when you were young.
Marriage is an incredibly solid plan for creating a stable life in your declining years. Living and dying alone is a terrible plan.
That said, it's still less stupid than half the reasons many people get married.
>downsides to becoming a fuckboyIt warps and erodes your sense of intimacy and builds confirmation bias for your shitty view of people. The same thing happens to cops who only ever interact with the worth filth of society. They begin to believe that everyone is like that.
>every woman I meet is so neurotic and self absorbed that they cannot handle genuine intimacy and so stick to fuckboys >surely they aren't all insane?Two possibilities here. One is that you've only ever met genuinely insane women. It's possible. There was an anon here who literally only ever knew the same group of people and actually believed all women outside his family were thots because he was surrounded by a culture that celebrated it. And the poor guy who lives in LA has trouble believing that the whole world isn't as insane as LA.
The second possibility is that some of the women were perfectly sane but just seemed insane to you because you two were speaking different languages. Little things matter. Pic related.
Once you're in a relationship, you learn a lot about women and interacting with them. Women often treat their emotions as being concrete and real. Men are taught to dismiss emotions for practicality. Considering how a woman feels as if it is true changes the perspective.
Everyone has their own baggage. You do too.
Often, women can't *trust* intimacy.
Of course they're afraid of pain and rejection.
If you think they all like fuckboys, that's because of the sample you're looking at.
Often, they aren't self absorbed but have to focus on themselves to protect themselves.
