Dates shouldn't be like a job interview. They should be open ended conversations about interest, hobbies and stories about your life.

23:08 Nicole got GAME 😂😂

love you guys...i wish my relationship was like yours.

5:53 good point

1:34 got a Nicole voice EARLY

I have definitely seen this right before retirement age. Spending the last decades of your life with someone nice that you don’t actually love sounds better than spending it alone. Especially if it will make you more financially secure.

which episode is this from? you should put that in the description.

Just drop the ruse that you're a "strong independent woman".

Who knew Newtons 2nd law of thermodynamics and boiling frogs actually had relationship wisdom hidden in them

I think an argument that wasn't touched on that much is that it's commonly thought of as men are only worth what they can provide and that only women and children are given unconditional love. Because of that kind of fundamental reality, most men spend their like trying to get to that feeling and then never know what it is to get it. As men we watch others around us and visualize what we sometimes see in movies or when we look at couples we see in the real world and think I want at some point at least 10% of what they feel right now. The topic of genuine desire came up, and the truest statement in that is that probably 70% of men have and never truly will feel that genuine desire. So they in some cases think that paying for it will get them their reality. Or the reasonably successful guy might give the argument of 50/50 to feel as if she's not with me just cause I have the ability to provide for everything. Now obviously that's not the entirely right mindset to approach that with but I don't think the argument of "be a man" is sensible given the thought.

zero/zero

Who is this BETA male?

There is more value than just $ value

hahaha

Heyyyyyy. Had a Nicole Voice!!

That's the key reason my ex used on me not to have relationships with me and now I'm no longer with him

Bro,,,,,you are bugging bro a gesture like sharing your location to me makes me feel that she cares about me,,,, and I will never bother like that anyway

So if women can read erotic fiction and no one thinks a thing of it, why are men looked down upon for watching porn? I don’t like to read in general, but I enjoy movies. Same goes with this genre/topic.

Too many men use marriage as a way to adopt a mommy. Which is why women request the divorce the majority of the time and why they won't get remarried. Married women make less money, die earlier, lose out on job opportunities, and have the responsibility of taking care of the family and household. Married men live longer, make more money, advance in their companies, and have a live in maid. Marriage isn't a balanced institution whatsoever. It favors men.

Good insights. Admiration/gratitude of positive qualities is helpful. Like anything human perception is not accurate of true reality, but this trick may work. Therefore, two people with complementary styles (not similar) provides a basis for lifelong admiration. A "safe, stable, reliable" one may find the "dynamic. off the cuff, self-confident" spouse truly admirable, and vice versa. Decades of happiness because one is looking at the other with qualities truly amazing.

Trying to change yourself just to influence someone else, that's an -expectation- manipulation. "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment".

Trust me, ladies, this sounds so cool and sweet and lovely, until your man wants to do something so colossally dumb and stupid it will wipe you out financially, or compromise your health, or even your life. That’s when you find out just how ugly and dangerous it is to be married to a Roman Pater Familia instead of a good American man - like George Bailey.

Oh, goodie. Fascinating Womanhood all over again. I want to barf.

Boundaries with consequences and without expectations.

I don’t expect anyone to stay in their lane while driving. I don’t expect them to stop at red lights or go at green lights because I can’t control them. And this, your honor, is why I’m a terrible driver.

😂 of course expectations can dictate standards and standards can dictate expectations. My standard is you’re not going to go out of town with single people, you’re not gonna go to the strip club and you’re not gonna have friends of the opposite sex. Those standards are directly dictating actions.😂 nice try….

It seems like having a wife/partner is a luxury that not everyone can afford. If the fella is paying for EVERYTHING its not a relationship/partnership, its a SPONSORSHIP, and the man is the leading investor.

Men have low low standards for women they just want to sleep with. However, they have high standards for women they want to have a relationship with.

Nicole is 33

Speak for yourself 🤮 🖕

10:30- 11:19 😂😂

9:43 that’s free game!!! It’s what I do but didn’t know how to say. Remove expectations and live up to my own standards….and anyone I don’t want around…it’s easier to cut them

Before I watch-I agree with the title. Understand…my standards aren’t low or to be settled. Happy birthday Nicole

Found yall on TikTok and I’m about to binge ❤

So she acts how she wants, disrespects you, and you have to check her in a kind and respectful way?😂😂

I believe that

What a twat

this is fucking stupid

In your opinion is there an argument to say that there is a way women to ensure their doing enough by becoming the woman he would hate to lose? Often times when I think of modern relationships and about how men yes, we do want variety, but if we have a woman we would hate to lose and or hate to hurt I don't think we would consider it nearly as much. Normally beyond the divorce consequences it's this argument that I believe keeps men faithful. Also to play devil's advocate do you believe that there are times that in your attempt to be that guy and make the woman feel loved that, women could sometimes ask too much and take parts and pieces of you that made you attractive initially in the first place? Obviously not knowing their relationship and only semantics I think the argument is with Tom Brady is not that he was that guy, and she left anyway, but that he was that guy, and she wanted him to give up something he loved to do and probably to some degree made him attractive in the first place to only be about her.

Women and men are born to complete each other, not compete to each other

The numbers don't lie but liars use numbers 🤮🖕

Speak for yourself 🤮 🖕

It’s so sad but true. I’m glad I don’t have that relationship with my wife

Speak for yourself 🤓 🖕

This is why the search algorithms continually showing people images of younger and younger people is so dangerous. You were not planning on looking at 12 year old kids but that is where the algorithm pushed you over a couple months. I’m glad this has been partially fix.

She’s actin like a true woman. Hence why men can’t feel secure or see the value in even trying to get a wife. It’s a joke to women

Why would you share your love?!? Get rid of her John

She seems wayyyyyyy to into this.

Speak for yourself 🤓 🖕

When I was probably 8 years old in the 1970 my mom left playboys and playgirls out that she had removed the photos she thought were inappropriate. Like bondage. She said. This is the human body in art form isn’t it beautiful. Then a couple years later she talked about what type of pictures she thought were inappropriate and mentally damaging to future relationships. I think today you would have to do this at age 5 for healthy photos to be fully normalized before they randomly found mentally damaging photos on the internet.
