Do men have a choice in whether they date a non traditional whore? Are they forced to do so?

Unfortunately most men don't these days, when pickings are slim they take what they can get, I just have my fun and keep it moving.

What do you mean by this? Are they being forced to date those women?

You have to be creative with your dates.

Many free & cheap dates. Its summer time always a cheap or free festival, fair, picnic, day out at the beach, lake, ice cream etc

Bowling, axe throwing, golf etc activity dates are reasonably priced.

I avoid expensive restaurants, them 5 star restaurants cost you brehs a lot. I only treat my girl to a nice restaurant once in a while.

At the minimum $100/wk is 5200/yr
(which is Pennies for a real relationship)




Coulda got your LLC

Dating is a scam on men. shyt only benefits women.

I disagree. If you talk to a chic that actually likes you they're some of the biggest spenders. They'll buy just because cologne, clothes, shoes, etc. all the time because they're thinking of you in it. Stop dating broke chicks or the ones constantly saying what a man should do and you can experience it too my guy.

Relationships (with a dummy) and eating out.

If someone were to put that money in the S&P500 instead, they’d be making $500k/year by the time they’re in their 50’s-60’s.

Talking about $2k savings a month total put into the stock market instead of eating out and on the wasteful spending in a relationship.

By the time they’re 70 that money would be about a mil per year of income due to compound interest.

Now imagine if both people in the relationship learned to cook and put money in the stock market instead. Find that person.

I really wish people and couples knew about the power of compound interest more rather than get rick quick mentality.

Then why is it a scam then if you have access to so many options? People at the buffet aren't complaining to management because they're too many entrees being served. They just eat and go about their business

Brehs mess up when they're trying to impress a woman they just met and go over the top with them expensive dates. That sets the standard that is unsustainable for a lot of men and leads to resent on the backend. Especially if the chick isn't really feeling you and only sticking around because you're leading with your wallet. But you're right a lot of dudes just aren't creative with planning dates and let the female pick the location/event. Of course she's going to run your pocket. You allowed it

I know the feeling

Dating women is like having VAT or increased tarrifs in a relationship. Everything you do cost more

Your grocery spend is double

Trips you go are now more expensive because she can't do regular hotels or Airbnb

Entertainment ain't cheap no more and you find yourself going to places/restaurants you wouldn't have gone if you were in a relationship.

Agree with the overall argument that men spend more
Not sure about those numbers, that's ~$400+ a month on the LOW end
In a country where they also said the avg american doesn't have $1000 saved for an emergency that would be crazy if true

This is part of the reason Americans don't have 1K saved up. Men are told they need a woman to be considered a "real" man and but do what's necessary to keep her. It's true with nothing crazy about it.
