    I MUST strongly disagree with the notion that her mere “presence” is a service.
    In exchange for her presence, she gets the benefit of YOUR presence. Her existence is not worth more than yours.

    I think the high percentage of men who would consider that simping is more due to the current dating environment we are currently in. Social media has painted it that most of these women (whether true or not) are dating multiple men and don’t want to be in the hypothetical of doing favors for a woman who then will let another man benefit from that favor. I don’t think it is simping but I also like to see investment from the woman I am dating first before i start going out of my way (with the exception of normal dates)

    If she REALLY likes you, you would have already closed on the first or second date. That's no matter if she is top quality or not. A woman with true genuine desire for you will not wait.
    When you choose the right women to date... the women who show genuine attraction towards you BEFORE the first date, you won't be waiting until the third date.

    After three dates it’s really about how much we enjoy each other’s company and not what we “do” for one another so gassing her car up and getting it washed is a NO at that point for me. Women are very observant and if they feel you are giving them access to your wallet too early it has the same effect as a woman who gives a man box too soon. It not about the cost of the gesture it’s about the principle.

    It depends on the status of the relationship. Date 3 is still early so I wouldn't feel obligated. I don't believe the first time is tricking but if she is consistently asking for financial favors, she may be using you. Don't close yourself off to women but also don't give constantly if she isn't reciprocating to a relatively similar amount.

    Some Women these days don't care about the cleanliness of their house or cars. Idk if I'm feeling her that much after 3 dates. The gas and car wash move at this point is slightly questionable. You have to be careful with that. Now i do think the "I'm about to wash my car, i can do yours to" is a good move. You have the evaluate how the female has been acting. I can see you asking if she needs gas the 2nd or 3rd time she drives to your house. I would hope most guys who follow channels like this, KS, or Style OG should know at this point to keep his house clean and smelling good. I still say that early on don't let it get out of control doing extra stuff for the woman

    Simping is simply energy is unappreciated and unreciprocated. Nobody signs up for this knowingly. Money and booty ain't everything. Booty is cheap. A good time filled with genuine energy is hard to put a price on.

    Now, I can understand a man doing kind gestures, if you’ve both agreed that you’re in a committed relationship! Then this would be considered “maintenance,” similar to how one must maintain a vehicle, you must perform acts of service to maintain your relationship. The behavior is considered “simping,” because you’re doing such acts for random women! The reality is, such acts are not required in today’s dating environment.

    Nothing wrong with doing all that AFTER she's built up a VERY high level of investment in you. This is AFTER a couple of dates, AFTER a couple links, AFTER she passes a few compliance tests. She cook for you, bring you some food, pays for a couple of dates and you've already got the box. THEN she's earned your generosity to wash her car. If you do this too early it will make her lose attraction for you.

    I have always attracted a lot of women but when i got to around 23 i felt the need to eliminate most women BEFORE the first meet up. I liked to do all that get to know each other stuff by phone (actually talking) or texts too. Kept a small rotation so i could get to seduce the new women mentally. At that point giving gifts or little kind gestures come naturally. A 50 dollar perfume with a (whatever her favorite flower scent) hits hard. Women usually bring up how that stuff makes them feel well after it happens. I never spent any big money on dates..didnt have to. Women also gave me gifts. I say we should all meet as many women as we can and find the few you really mesh with. A woman that likes you foreal will melt because you got her some 5 dollar chocolates honestly. Most men won't have an issue 'simping' if we worked on chemistry with women first. We should be upping our value to attract as many as possible but only a few will really be compatible. I say out of every 10 women interested in seeing us maybe only 1 or 2 should get the opportunity. Calling a car wash simping is ridiculous.
