maybe the trick is to just be yourself from the beginning and then you can weed out all the people who don't really fit with you.

That is good advice

yeah get out of your head man

This is always the best approach.

what's going on with your love life anyway? i haven't seen you post any intrusive pictures of your girlfriend in awhile.

My love life is going surprisingly well. She’s in love with me and I like her a lot too.

RM can’t handle girlfriend pics.

She's in love with me and I like her a lot too. LOL doomed

Maybe. My reservations are more based on past experiences/relationships and not wanting to make myself more vulnerable than necessary. I can absolutely see myself with her long term though. I just need to consciously slow my roll sometimes. I’m usually the one that falls head over heals, so...

so she said i love you and you didn't reciprocate?

I’ve told her that I feel the same but I also feel vulnerable in saying so and I’m still a bit hesitant to push that (for several reasons of which she is aware). She’s very understanding.

but have you actually said i love you

On The Bachelor that's when the girl gets sent home.

oh god

Yes

there's nothing wrong with being a little cautious around women. Most of us aren't cautious enough...

The thing about a lady is they don't even love. They just assess dudes. Love is purely a businness decision for a chick(it's a statistical fact that they consider wealth to be the most important trait in a man. They can leave you as easily as they can take you. Men are the opposite. We can fall in love with any girl that will let us screw them. Men don't discriminate at all so a man's love has zero currency.

I disagree. Women are also capable of love and crushes.

I agree with Argo.

What's the endgame for the single dudes in this thread? Are you guys dating to have fun? Looking for marriage and monogamy? What's up?

yeah until you become a liability. love doesnt take them far.

love comes second for ladies. but for men too.
