Girls never like anyone they don’t give a shit about themselves u think they will care about you? A Gay sub guy will treat u much better. Finding a gay sub as a straight man is not as bad as reputation it has and is alot more straightforward that what women will out you through. I think people are only jaleous when they see you having fun. Women will provoke men and then laugh at them when they go elsewhere. You can even find some femboys that look like hotter than actual women. This weekend i will be seeing a nice femboy with perfect plump glossy lips and can’t wait. Women play too many games, guys know what other guys want. Its not ideal for a relationship but what’s the difference when a woman will exhaust you until you reach your limit. Atleast the gays won’t ruin my life. I just close my eues and imagine other things it’s the same shit really. Or You just look at porn and picture someone else and move on with your life! You will be stuck looking forever looking for the right woman. It’s not gay to be with another man it’s gay to Submit to Him.

I now see it in her eyes, they linger a bit too long when she mentions places she's going and cafes she's not tried, she is desperate for me to ask her out again. I just say stuff like "that sounds lovely". I know this sounds cruel, but if you revert back and roll over, then you've indicated you are weaker than you tried to appear to begin with and it shouldn't be an act. Stoic is the word.

Stay strong, mate! I got divorced 3 years ago, and it took me 2 years just to put myself together. Focus on yourself, your business/work, health, and enjoy life. When you are ready, see dating as a fun side gig without expecting any result. Just like casually meeting someone at a bar and chatting with them. When stars align, she will come. Or not, but you still had the best of life ;)

Im 31 & I never been married and been single for 8 years

[@BoricuaBoy88]

I'm 35 and have never dated. The west is doomed if we're forced to waste away alone our whole lives.

Welcome to the field. It’s not much to write home about, a lot of stray luggage 🧳 all over to trip over, pit falls are over there and careful of them traps you can’t see here there and somewhere under the only shade tree out here. Also, it’s always sunny, hot, and yes what everyone is doing is considered normal. Good luck

[@billcoupe4468]

You're just exactly right! I moved on today, she said she needed space. I said, "Take all the space you need"

[@brockbrawn1524]

I did this in my last relationship. She was such a coward she couldnt talk to me face to face to break it off. Shicker she was dating someone else a week later.

[@DiogenesNephew]

This reminds me of the meme of the girl saying she needs space. Then it shows her getting dicked down in various positions by the actual cosmos in the shape of a man lol.

[@SizedCylinder]

She was probably monkey branching. No time for that.

[@jameshoopes6467]

I wish I had taken this advice when I was younger. It’s spot on. If she’s playing hard to get, hold back. She needs to decide one way or the other, not get you into a competition in which you don’t know the rules.

[@termicrafteron2794]

That's what i was thinking, she's just offering us a strategy to win, but I ain't playing them games

[@brandonhill2183]

Back off...then immediately move on. She was in the right neighborhood, just not quite there

[@eternalrage6548]

As far as dating advice from women goes, this is the best I've heard so far. It would work if you were just trying to bed her. Other than that, the moment you see that she's playing games it's time to walk away. There's no reason to hang around manipulative people.

[@NerdlySquared]

Those who play games with other people, is enough evidence in itself of who they are. No further steps with them are required.

[@kenkneram4819]

That's because she wants to reserve the option of playing hard-to-get herself. 😏

[@mojohns44]

Nailed it. Don't step back, just walk away.

[@brianhale2977]

Real love is not a game.

[@RiotforPeacePlz]

Also doesn't exist.

[@Goblin_Hands]

I think the bond with a good child and loving parents is pretty close though. Also, good friends in your childhood, because you are just trying to enjoy time with them, not pay time and money for sex, and get ripped off.

[@thetsuwu8597]

​@RiotforPeacePlz I'm sad to hear you feel that way. It took me a while to find it. Eventually, I did. Been happily with the same woman for 12 years now. Life has given us a kicking recently. She's been fighting brain cancer for the past year. The treatments used to keep her alive have done a number on her body. For months, I've had to watch her and take care of her. She had seizures on a daily basis. I love her so much that this has not deterred me. Our relationship is so much more than just physical. She is such an amazing person. She has always been supportive of me. So yes, real love does exist. It's just hard to find sometimes. Just remember that you have to hold up your end of the bargain and be the kind of person your mate would want to be with. Thank God, we are doing much better now that she has recovered from surgery and radiation.

[@Sarcasmarkus]

its useful to look at all human behaviors as a game to satisfy their human needs. the crappyest games are loose loose, many people like to play win loose games, but the only good games to play in a romantic relationship are win win games/or non zero sum games. people who have good deep high quality relationships are those whom both partners commit to only playing mutually beneficial win win games. What games are you playing in your relationships?

[@rjbourgeois5490]

​@@thetsuwu8597look into parasitic/dewormers and switching to an akaline diet. Theres a major misunderstanding within the medical industry. They are for profit, which means they arent taught in school how to cure, but to suppress. Every patient cured is a customer lost. Radiation is what actually kills you, its splitting open and releasing toxins back into your system that your cells absorb in attempt to cleanse your body. Just something to research and find out more abou if you wantt, take my advice or leave it.

[@simplyfit9256]

It worked on my wife. I pursued her for a while. She reciprocated a bit, but was pretty hesitant to commit. I eventually let her know that I really liked her and thought we had something special, but also that I don't play games, and if her answer isn't "yes" (to dating me exclusively), then it was "no". When she suggested we could still be friends I said "No way, I like you too much". Then I assumed it was over and completely deleted her out of my life. It could have easily just ended, but it let her miss me and helped her respect me. I made her work to get me back, meaning I let her know clearly that the first game would be the last. Whether it works or not, it's the right way to play fellas. She was only 24, she didn't know what she was doing. Now she's 43 and has been a great partner and mother for 19 years. And she still knows that I don't play! Have the strength and self respect to walk away from women who don't treat you right!

[@broadmeadowluck]

You do you bubu.

[@garyprieto3731]

Still a no. We don't like to waste time. Life's too short.

[@thelucariamonarchs4889]

You didn't respected yourself tho but you do you

[@Darren-su2gm]

Wow you educated me buddy.Thank you👍

[@KJUgrin]

Facts. When your life comes together it's all the fulfillment you need. A female either wants this or she doesn't. Either is fine with me.

[@Blazin.]

I work from home and only leave for work, every girl plays hard to get. 😂

[@fig5330]

Yeah I wouldn't tolerate it, if both parties are not actively engaging with each other with a keen interest, I'll move on and go back to living my own life. Too many women do this, makes dating near unbearable.

[@Chichi-mo2pc]

It’s happening on our end too sadly smh

[@fig5330]

@@Chichi-mo2pc Oh I don't doubt it. The whole dating game is a mess, no wonder birth rates are plummeting.

[@jlsajulan]

This is so true. The minute I moved on the girl I was chasing wanted my attention and was texting daily…I decided to stay with the girl that showed interest. Got no time for games bruh…

[@GrandPines323]

It is better to be with someone who is enthusiastically interested in being with you.

[@gcHK47]

Like a different video I saw: “If I want to play games, I’ll turn on my Nintendo Switch.”

If I have to back off, then lady, you're back on the streets 😂

[@PoisonJarl71501]

It’s adorable because she’s repeating what she’s heard elsewhere, but if she’s playing game, play them too. Then get Bored And log out

[@crazylarryjr]

The power of walking away, if she plays the game, it's because she wants you to earn her, walking away tells her you are the prize (has value) and should be pursued.

[@CAESAR_TRADER]

This is only true if she has some baseline attraction for you. If non-existent, it just means one profile is gone from her list of chasers. Don't walk away to make her think that you're the prize. This is very noticeable. Walk away genuinely to find someone who has quality attraction for you and will not make it hard for you.

[@crazylarryjr]

@@CAESAR_TRADER, This is true, but if she doesn't chase you, odds are it wouldn't have worked out anyways

[@itsmecoacht]

TRUTH… I told my now wife (hint hint), if you play games with me, I’ll lose on purpose (move on). Being direct about that early on (and her not wanting to play those types of games as our relationship progressed) helped stabilize the relationship so we could go deeper with each other genuinely (and not as a facade or something to keep score on) 🤜🏾💥🤛🏾

[@djm_229]

Guy here. Totally loving your advice. May the Light shine upon you.

[@MHC-1]

This young lady is 100 percent correct! Hats off to her!

I don't play games, I walk away and don't look back.

Someone that wants you shows it. They won't play games with someone they're afraid to lose.

Emily, comparatively, you're one of the best, wisest men's advocates out there.. Not to mention stunning as well 😉 Thank you for what you do for us men, we do appreciate it!

[@lucasvincent3021]

Anabelle is a walking W. So glad to see you reacting to her videos

[@HellHound4201]

Went with option 2, kinda bored sometimes, but the peace and quiet really does check the balance.

[@VaronPlateando]

...it's involving a neutral state: as in absence of toothache etc. - which one doesn't miss either. At least.

[@ghostnkc7444]

I personally have enjoyed option 2. It's peaceful and I have more time for my hobbies

[@nuggetsschumaker4371]

Exactly. Signs of disinterest are red flags for us, not "commiting to the chase." Not a single man likes a chase, neither being part of it. Stop playing games and you'll have our attention, give us reciprocation and you have our interest.

[@darcycarter7586]

Cracks me up that 6 year olds are giving advice…. On anything!

[@ArtoriasF47]

Hey Emily, I'm very new but I have come across some of your videos and shorts and it's helping me realise what having self respect as a man looks like when it comes to dating. Thanks so much, keep it up!

[@impacking]

If she plays hard to get, then she becomes hard to want. I give her exactly what she wants. To be completely alone for life.

[@Chaotic-Demise77]

I enjoy my freedom, P & Q, enjoying my hobbies, etc. Both of these ladies are right. Mom would tell me the same about hearts growing fonder if it's meant to be.
