I have to admit I did buy into western culture through the influence of TV. its a dream of mine to have a life like little house on the prairie, but who am I kidding. not many women want to live that life, the divorce rate(enough said, loss of my empire to said divorce, a low body count woman who has the the list of credentials I am looking for.Western men have to stop being hopeful romantics. The Boomer world of pair bonding doesn't exist anymore. If a woman genuinely has feelings for you, it's a bonus, but don't expect it, especially if there is an age gap or financial gap.
Most people are married to partners that are not their first choice, and not even close to their ideal. It's the nature of the world. If they can make a go of it, so can everyone else.
Get the bag to gain freedom and status, fuck as many beauties as possible, drop a couple kids in the one whose company you enjoy most and that you think could make a decent mother, each partner play their position in the relationship (e.g. she cooks, cleans, and pretends to love you; while you call the shots, never show weakness - women do NOT want you to get in touch with your feelings, and financially support the family), and call it a wrap.
That's life in a nutshell.
my parents are boomers and have had a successful marriage and life. most of my friends also are still married with no divorce. its possible but the reality and stats are not in mens favour.
its about vetting a woman properly, which takes time. I have a four year plan. if they can survive my shit test and their attitudes and personality is consistent throughout that time I may consider it, just not in a western country.
I agree mostly with being stoic but at the same time I am human and like the way my emotions present. if she doesnt like it or cuts attitude she can exit stage left.
shitty behavior, I am not willing to tolerate.
