What fun is it remembering a trip or something funny only to have no one to chat about it with because the friend you made isn't really a friend just an associate you picked up at a hostel or online? Idk...I just don't agree with you.

Unless they die you're not going to remember those experiences as fondly because you'll most likely break up with these "special someones" and you'll look upon them with so much contempt it'll poison the memories. My best memories are with friends. :yeshrug:

I'm not a very jaded person. So even if I was to break up with someone I understand that we had good and bad times and I'll go from there. It's happened before...it's not like I look back at those past memories and scoff. We had a good time then and that's what I remember.

I've gotten sonned and played by a lot of men trying to be the opposite of what the OP posted. I get ghosted a lot and then the 6month - 1 year later "hey stranger long time" text. It's exhausting having to go through that over and over, especially if you live in an area like the DMV where there are a lot attractive, black, professional men and women. It's like there are too many choices and no one can focus. The way these men act, it's like they're looking past me for the next best thing. It's hard not to get jaded in a dating environment like this.

Honestly a lot of LAWS contribute to this behavior. We are scared of relationships because marriage is designed to punish men when things go left regardless of whose fault it is. I'm terrified of getting married, not because of one vagina for the rest of my life but because I'm scared of losing my shyt to some lousy chick. If I inherit something from my parents then that's 2 generations of wealth lost to a lousy bytch.

I mean sniffing a chick's hair is enough of sexual abuse, sexual assault, borderline rape

That's true.

There are the 3 types of guys I generally see today:

#1 This is the guy who is "traditional" and wants to be seen by everyone else as doing the "right" thing. He finds a girl he has known for a good amount of time from his social circle and settles down. On paper, everything looks great. In reality, this guy is suffering. He never really sexually courted his mate to begin with. Generally these types will be friend zoned for years and either because of their job, status, or some other benefit, the girl decides to settle down with him. These types of guys also fall prey to girls they're not even attracted to, but give them attention. The worst part about these guys is they have no say in their relationships. As their male friend, you have to be very careful with this type because they're quick to turn on you to save face.

#2 I'm seeing much more of this today. These guys see what's happening to guy #1 and don't want any part of that life. Yet they have yet to develop the skills to attract the kind of woman they do actually want. The end result is they stay single. There are varying degrees of happiness in this crowd. Some are ok with it while others still crave a relationship.

#3 This guy also doesn't want to end up like #1, but takes a different approach than #2. He might still be single, but allocates time to talking to different women. However, he doesn't place much value on any one interaction. Knowing all the media brainwashing out there, this guy knows many of the interactions are going to be a waste of time. The main thing is he keeps the time wasters from wasting his time. Generally guys in this category are working on goals that are beyond trying to find someone to settle down with.
I'm between 2 and 3. I've seen 1 a lot. These dudes do attract women and have had girlfriends and random flings or one night stands here and there, but a lot get gamed by a chick with more game then them. These guys become simps the woman controls the relationship, and more often then not is probably cheating on them or at least did early on or before they got married and had kids.

Thing is with me, I attract women easily just off my looks but at times I can't be bothered to holla at a bunch of chicks because a lot of them are flakey, expect you to chase'em, got dudes in the background, an ex they ain't over yet etc. I'm not a simp though.

If you go on YouTube and watch those boyfriend tag videos or my boyfriend does my makeup tag videos, those are the number 1 type dudes you described that are simps.
