Quote:Why not accept it?
It can fulfill the pairbonding part of human needs. She is okay with me having sex with / dating others. And I definitely plan on having sex with women. So I don’t understand how accepting this has anything to do with my level of self-respect.
You can’t always get want you want, but you always get what you need. I wanted sex. I got pairbonding instead. A while ago I experienced zero affection, zero sex and zero pairbonding. Now I am experiencing affection and pairbonding. But still lack sex.
Consider everything, and choose whatever resonates with you (when the opportunity arises to choose the thing that resonates with you. For example, sex hasn’t been an opportunity for me. But pairbonding has, etc).
Why not accept it? Because of supposedly having even just an ounce of self respect? And (apparently) having testicles? Seriously.. if you are happy to accept things like this from women you'll never get laid. If you put up with a situation like this inevitably your self esteem and self respect will decrease.
I say that because i've accepted some dumb stuff from women in the past and that is the result, though nothing as bad as you're mentioning.
You're not getting anywhere with that situation, other than her knowing you'll happily be a little puppy dog and do anything with her, she doesn't respect you either. You can guarantee a man who she would be attracted to amd would have sex with would NEVER accept it and would tell her to fuck off. I've had women try to pull dumb shit in the past like "Oh no lets be friends" or "no were not having sex if you don't (do this thing I want)" and I walk out on them, tell them no.. and a good amount stop the crap and I slept with them. But if you try to take that and use it as a 'method' with the mindset you currently have it won't work.
I can only imagine the shit you'll put up with from women if you'll accept this, and inevitably they won't have respect or attraction for you either.
