During the Covid fiasco, the Chinese government threatened them with
consequences that would last to "the third generation after you". They
snapped back: "We are the last generation!" Sadly, they are right!
A population collapse in China and another in India would be good for the planet. And probably also good for the Western economy, if we're going to be honest about it.
I can't agree with darknetuser's disillusionment as a whole, though. I get it, it's tough to find someone you can stick with, but it's not impossible.
It's pretty clear that if you have to spend "kilobucks" on a mate to win their affection, then yes they're a commodity and they'll treat you as one as well. On the other hand, I'm still pretty happy with the mate that I landed 35 years ago when we were both broke university students.

It is not that you have to outright buy 'em,, but just how many chicks are going to remain besides you if you do nothing to entertain them? These days you have to take them out for diner, organize fun activities, that sort of thing, and that costs money which so many people does not honestly have. And if you don't do that you end up a borying fuck and nobody will want to be with you.
Also I am kind of "mehed" by claims that people is happy... I know a bunch of cases who were happy on paper then you dug up and the couple is cheating on each other. I can count happy couples I personally know with the fingers of a horse. Horses have four fingers by the way.
My wife of 30 years is very happy to be left to entertain herself most of
the time. A healthy long term relationship eventually trends towards warmth
and comfort and familiarity, and doesn't need to be fed with nonstop excitement.
It can happen. Tho i wont go into details, its not impossible.

Yes, I know it can happen. Something else that could happen is you win the lottery. You'd still be a fool if you placed a heavy bet on the possibility, though.
When you check the stats regarding love satisfaction they are overwhelming. What puzzles me is that people still bet heavily on losing odds. This is specially true if you are a male, because males are extremely disposable.
I think I have already mentioned one of my best friends, who used to be a huge critic of my "paranoid theories" got the sharp end of the love axe recently?
Not all of us females are 'in it for the money' and want an actual partner to share life with, not a "funding source" on 2 feet.
And don't kid yourself, tons of men are in it just for the 'fringe benefits' and if that drys up, they kick the woman to the curb .. ( and no, not just the one you are thinking.. basically replacing their mother: cleaning. cooking, laundry, bla bla )

It is not that women are necessarily in it for the money, but modern society has warped their expectations quite a bit. These days you are supposed to be a fun guy who entertains them by organizing things to do and taking them to places. That means burning through disposable income. If your hobbies are at the inexpensive end of the spectrum you are likely to be dumped because you are a "borying brick with no personality."
And this leads to another point which is that women are very bad at picking their mate, because when the bias is to pick men who will take them more often
to Disney amusement parks over men who stay at home watching B movies, then men with worse budget management are likely to be selected - and bad budget management seems to be tied to bad life management. No wonder women get unsatisfied from their choices.

You got yours to stay for 30!? Mine left me for another man after only 6!
I found out through a prophet of God that the first woman I proposed to back in 2002 on her 16th birthday that she's been training herself on her other men to come after me and "help" me overcome my prudish adherence to rules of law. (Statutory rape has rather high consequences, after all. Plus now she's 39 so she's not even underage any more!)
Alright, so I want to pose an hypothetical question based on something that
totally didn't happen.
For the sake of hypothesis, let's say I was doing something very manly, like cleaning the sparker of a tiling machine. And let's carry on and say a very big strong female shows up and tells me in clear uncertain terms that she wants some cuddle time.
I really need to get the tiling machine fixed so I tell her in uncertain terms that she is getting no cuddle time from me -what I don't tell her is I would love to, because she is so damn cuddley.
She then proceeds to ignore me and, since she is big and strong, proceeds to pin me against the tilling machine and cuddle me hard, and I happen to like it so I cuddle her back as much as hard as she does.
My friends have told me I was cuddlery abused. The question is, then, is it abuse if you say you don t want it while you actually like it?

if she knows your are lying, i'd say no. But i might be a bit biased too.

Biased? In which regard?
