    The woman I fell for the quickest and most deeply started off as a quiet, shy girl who shared most of my views. I felt like I’d met the female version of myself - except petite and beautiful. But over time, I began to notice the cracks. If I forced her to speak first - she didn’t seem to have any real opinions of her own. She had simply mirrored me until she thought I was hooked. Once she believed I was in love, her true self emerged-a vicious and hurtful person like none I’d ever encountered. One day, I found myself staring at her, wondering what it was that I had liked about her in the first place. I couldn’t think of a single thing. I skipped many the checks and balances and let my guard down because everything felt perfect. I am a lot harder to fool now.

      Many (most) are very gifted at playing the chameleon role. They're observant at the embryonic stage of the relationship and mould themselves around the man they wish to hook. We all fall for it. "She's the perfect girl"
      ......until we start to see the glitches and snap out of our trance. It's like a spell. For some guys they get so deeply entrenched it's too late.

    The women i dated since the breakup with my sons mother, 8 years ago, have one thing in common. They are all profoundly unhappy and look outward for validation or attention.

    I have seen this behavior throughout my life. From grade school to my senior years. Ever notice that a woman when she is angry that she can bring up something from the long forgotten past that a man forgot about or it was an insignificant event to him. Ever notice that, with this destructive attitude a woman can totally crush a mans confidence , especially a young, withdrawn man, where he will lose his strength to pursue a female relationships. This can possibly turn him into a mean, vengeful person towards women later in life. I just watched a clip of a woman asked by a male interviewer, is your husband happy. She could not answer that but her expression said that he was not. Great question.

But we will who have mature years understand that conversation is not going to alter anyone direction, he’s gonna have to experience some discomfort. So we’ll move out his way, and let him taste the bitter sweet sting of a woman.

    You described my neighbour. I avoid that witch at every point and how I knew she was a cruel mean girl was how she tried turning other neighbours against me. I saw right through her and she tried to see if ill flip and when i didn't she left me alone but keeps wanting my attention which i dont give to her. I distance myself and never talk to her. She tried one time to invite my son to come play in her home mind you as an Empath I notice everything and watch body language and her coldness said everything and I didn't allow my son go have a playdate with her son because not only did I notice that kid was avoidant but he was always needing his mother and didn't know how to socialise with another child. I told her no thank you maybe next time and I never looked back . Her children are nasty like her. Toxic women are becoming a pandemic just like toxic men. I choose my peace

    Exactly. You never know what she will do. She may decide to follow her friends and live you. She may not find you attractive anymore and desire to live an adventure with another man. She may build resentment for being attached to you. She may feel she is aging with you and she needs to get out.
    She may start to hate your voice. Your hair. She may want to go back to her mother. She may decide to help women to divorce men. She may get violent against masculinity. So many things.

    I worked 30 years as an engineer in two different State DOTs, and I have to share two points:
    1) One of my supervisors thought it would be a great idea to put together an all girl team to run a road construction project for the State. Within weeks, the three women were at eachother's throats, and my supervisor had to split the team up and put a couple guys underneath the girl who was running the project.
    2) I worked under a good female engineer on a road construction project, and she volunteered that she much preferred supervising and/or working with men than women. She said women were much too catty to each other.

    Hey John, I will be 58 in 11 days and I have to say, your videos are getting better and better. I have literally learned something new from this video that I never really gave a lot of thought to before. In fact, probably the most important thing I tried to remember is that women are fiercly loyal to their own feelings before anything else, at least most of the time. I see a couple of women here and there for the last couple of years and what you shared in this video has reinforced that understanding. I would never share this info with them, I just have to logically think through this and remember it.

    I've known since I was 7 years old that women are jealous of each other.
    My mum had a friend named Karen.
    Karen had the hots for a guy in his late 30's but this guy didn’t like her, he liked my mum.
    Karen was aware of this and always told my mum bs stories about how some random guy would buy toys for her son when they were at the store.
    I knew it was BS and told her she was a liar!

    Best films (other than the one John mentioned) to understand the "mean girl" phenomenon:

    Heathers (1988)
    Election (1999)
    Carrie (1976) (remember Christine Hargesen, who tormented Carrie?)
    Best quote from the very quotable Heathers film:
    Veronica Sawyer: Heather, why can't you just be a friend? Why do you have to be such a mega-bitch?
    Heather Duke: Because I can be.

      I found with one female boss that they felt they need to compete (with men) so she was more cutthroat. Another I worked for envisioned herself as "Boss Girl" and held many feminist/liberal ideals she freely shared ("mansplaining", disparaging Christians, TDS, etc...). Because of my past experience, I kept my mouth shut, performed well and took direction with minimal pushback. I did notice she kept testing me over the years to see my political leanings, and I proclaimed myself Independent. If I really wanted to, I could have compiled a solid record of comments that could be considered unprofessional enough to get her rebuked or even dismissed. I'm not like that, but there were times with her.....Now I will say both were extremely competent, top performers and walking encyclopedias of knowledge. I walked the tightrope with experience knowing how women operate. I'm now retired, thank God. Be well.

I never knew that there was covert narcissists out there and I never suspected that she was one. It's been a year now and it's only recently that I accepted that she's one. Of course she gaslighting me telling me that I was a narcissist. I've taken a few tests. I'm not a narcissist. Narcissists are attracted to me.

I feel bad for you guys, but at the same time you make your own bed. Jack, you are in love with your mother. I can clearly see that. You should just date her and leave me alone.
