Don’t Date Just Anybody

I got a good response from a post that I made yesterday called Ask 1000 Questions (The Right Questions).  I decided to share another humorous gem that I ran across on Facebook a while back.

Ask lots of questions and take your time are both good bits of advice.  It’s a good way to avoid the pitfalls of a fake relationship that was devised to use you.  Remember that women are the vulnerable party in courtships. Men don’t have much to lose in fake no commitment relationships.  Their investment is very small.

Women are more vulnerable to physical harm.  Women form emotional attachments easier.  Women go through pregnancy regardless if the father is involved or not.  Women take on the responsibility of caring for children regardless if father is involved or not.  And women are judged more harshly by society for past relationships with men.

It’s in a woman’s best interest to protect herself against the chicanery that is prevalent in the dating world.  If a man isn’t willing to show you that he is interested in a commitment then he shouldn’t be allowed to take up a large space in your life.  This is a drain of emotional energy that can be redirected somewhere else.

If men and women are going to date without commitment the terms of the relationship should be made clear and both parties should agree.  It’s up to the couple to decide on the terms of a relationship.  If both parties are honest and agree the details are completely up to them.  But if we’re honest women want to be married 9/10.

If a man wants a particular woman he will rise to her standards.  If a man is looking for a sex kitten, a security blanket, a nice lady to babysit his kids or someone to help him pay off his truck he is going to find a woman to fit that bill.  He will probably never marry her.  Once she’s served her purpose he will move on.

I know that people get lonely and desire attention and affection but it’s not worth it if it’s a counterfeit.  Counterfeit, cubic zirconia affection causes more problems than being single.  So ask 1,000 specific questions and take your time.  It’s OK to walk away and if he walks away don’t chase him.  Learn to cut your losses because you can’t just date anybody.  Good luck everybody.
