    I'm a 30 year old guy who has been in a reasonable amount of relationships/sitautionships in my time. I've been an avid consumer of dating advice from many sources all over the place in that time, and this is the one SINGLE source that i've seen that flatly lays out what basically EVERY OTHER dating advice source attempts to explain - but usually in a more partial manner. This is great beyond words.

      Men want sex, championship, and desire. The Friendzone is companionship without sex and desire. The husband zone is companionship and sex, and perhaps a smidge of real desire. The Prince Charming Zone is ridiculously hard to be in and the only place where men would get all 3 of the things they desire. The sad truth is that it is better for most men to push themselves to be stronger in the "bad boy" metrics than the "good boy" metrics because for most men, sex and desire are worth more than companionship, at least until their twilight years.

      @@hoe_math It's also just plain expensive, for all parties involved -- not just for either men or women. I include OP's assertion about liability in this, since that can be measured as a cost. We're seeing a macro trend in individuals voting en masse with their dollars and their feet to opt for cheaper, lower-risk alternatives. Asian society is NOT by any means a perfect analogue, but it may serve as a warning sign for us. There is tremendous social/family pressure for young people to tick ALL the risk-aversion boxes to extremes of security. Amalgamating many "dating-towards-marriage" expectations or stereotypes, they irrationally push for too many competing/conflicting standards that are exhausting or impossible in combination:
      A woman has to maintain webdrama/model levels of maintenance and beauty, never divorced, no kids, and under 30. And give up her career after marrying. If her company passes over her for promotions and raises after she gets married b/c she's no longer on a career track (because "women will have kids") or a primary/sole income earner (her husband surely is now), then that increases the pressure on women to find even better catches for husbands b/c they have to offset the risk to their own ability to make a living.
      A man has to have his own house, good car (or equivalent economic status indicator), and income preferably 3-5x above median wages.
      Not everyone there believes this, of course -- Asia is a big freaking place with billions of individuals and social/familial/economic subcultures. And necessarily the majority will fail to achieve these requirements (b/c, if the obvious needs to be explained, the majority of people cannot ALL earn 3-5x above median wage). However, popular, irrational, and internally inconsistent BELIEF in these standards gives it a life of its own.
      And because of these PERCEPTIONS of what's "necessary" to get married, Japan, Korea, and China are all seeing critically low levels of marriage and children, with a lot of hubbub in media about their imminent demographic collapse in the coming decades (or arguably already ongoing, depending on the metrics you emphasize).
      But those extreme examples show where we might hypothetically be headed with our own ongoing trends in economic/societal pressure. And perception plays a HUGE role for us as well.
      In the US, different sources (including the USDA for its various cost-of-living metrics) indicate raising a kid costs $15k-30k per year (depending on region, household income, etc). When *I* was a kid, cost to raise a kid to age 18 was just under $200k, when household income was about $25k. These days, it's closer to $300k, when household income is about $60k. Admittedly, certain industries and expense categories for household spending have chronically outstripped general inflation for decades (higher education, healthcare), which then compete against having kids.

      I have a very rare combination of traits. I have a top 1% IQ (people hate it when you say this, but oh well, it's true), I believe I have mild undiagnosed autism, which helps separate my conscious awareness from my deep-rooted subconscious drives so that I can observe them and place them under my control, and I have spent an enormous amount of time on self- development including study, mindfulness, fitness, and social skills. I have been able to do this because I am habitually unemployed, which I do not fully understand. I have many skills and no one will pay me for them. I'm broke as death and have been almost all my life despite applying for 6000 jobs.
      I also have an extremely rich history of experience with women, especially considering that I am significantly neurodivergent. I've seen everything they do from every angle.
      Basically, I have the tools and the experience to "get it" on the rational, emotional, and instinctive levels, and I have had the time to let it all formulate into a map of simple min/max stats that can be operated on.
      Much, much more is coming, but only if I get paid! Please support me with a donation or by buying a copy of this chart (or anything else I offer!) which I will have ready for sale ASAP along with a glossary of terms via my linktree (below). I am also a dating (and general personal development) coach, so I am your competition, but I want everyone to have the tools I'm building. But I also need to be paid, and for God's sake, I deserve it. I need to learn to monetize better while also promoting availability of the tools, because they're gonna do a lot of good.

      ​@hoe_math I relate to the "habitually unemployed" part, brother, insofar as I have, since 2006 or so, been unable to hold or maintain a "typical" job in the traditional "9-to-5" model and sense.
      I do create music and voice act, and such, and I make a little (honestly wouldn't cover a lot, though, if I didn't have assistance from taxpayer-funded social programs...which I wish I dusky need to rely upon, but alas...the private sector would make disability benefits ACTUALLY effective...anyway).
      When I am able, I would be willing to send a donation to you. I don't really want or need the merch, just would like to directly donate. I would this moment, if I wasn't broke.
      Regardless, I understand this to a degree. It is (or at least seems) virtually impossible for neurodivergent folk (an umbrella under which I also stand) to maintain gainful employment, even of the self-employed, entrepreneurial variety.
      Subbed for now, will remind myself to send a donation when I am able. I strive to directly financially support other creators as often as I am able.

      @@hoe_math For what it may be worth, I suspect the unemployable aspect comes from how blunt and sure of yourself you are. You know you're intelligent and don't deny it, and are able to recognize that people don't like when you do this, so it's not a stretch. I've been very close to several people who work HR, and they do not care about how good someone is at the job if they (and others) cannot get along well with them. It's almost a universal HR person story that they've had to let an incredibly efficient 10x-er go because they were impossible to get along with.
      They'd rather employ an ineffectual dullard who's comfortable to be around than a genius who isn't. You have a sharp energy about you which does not set others at ease (unless you're playing them, I wager, but that's exhausting in the long term). Your skill with women may not translate to the employment sector, and getting experience in this arena is impossible if they won't let you in the door because you don't already have said experience.
      I assure you I mean no offense - I imagine you and I could get along very well, but I've also always gotten along exceptionally well with autists (I think I may be one to a very slight degree). I find your knowledge incredibly useful and I'm grateful you're sharing it, but I figure you may be able to find utility in my hunch on this matter as well. Just a hunch, of course.

    Just as a PSA for the guys: Being a 'bad boy' is completely subjective and depends on demographics like age, culture and personal history. For example: If an attractive 23 yr old American woman had more than 10+ relationships, her standards of 'bad boy' will be much more difficult to achieve than a sexually naïve 18 year old woman, a 30+ year old woman who wants stability, or even a woman of particular faith / collectivist society where attractiveness is a plus rather than a deal breaker. This extreme emphasis on particularity is predominantly an individualistic country issue and should not sway you to drastically change who you are just to find someone to be compatible with.

    • @Smartcom5
      @Smartcom5 Рік тому +27

      ​@@mandyads What are those called who are solely attracted to sigma-males? That's easy, they're called a _›woman‹_ … I'm not even kidding here though!
      Since a sigma is pretty much a man's archetype and the most pure male in and of itself (stoicism, masculinity, self-reliance et cetera), virtually *every* woman is attracted to them.
      Those women who are mostly or even solely attracted to sigmas might be very well just dwelling in their femininity and despise bad-boys and their often inhuman mode of behaviour as a whole - Those women are just way too bright to fall for a bad-boy's conspicuous acting.
      Bad-boys are still just _boys_ with their childish behaviour having borrowed the stoicism-part from a sigma, while deploying _actual _*_carelessness_*_ as a sigma's stoicism in disguise_ in bad faith for ulterior motives alone, p!p!ng girls left, right and centre just to compensate for their fragile ego - AS they've pretty much nothing else to show for. It's called the ›Dark triad‹ for a reason. Simply put, a bad-boy is just the male counterpart of a bad b!tch, (which *not by chance* also doubles down on excessive prom!scu!ty to compensate for their massive lack of self-esteem and -worth. Both of them have very low self-esteem and feel having no greater worth as a person - Both derive they artificially inflated self-worth by 'success' from the other gender.
      Though a _healthy_ bit of stoicism is actually *needed* for a woman to fully unfold their emotionality through complete expression in their emotion-driven feminine energy - They need that sturdy rock in stormy weather at which they can splash and release onto in all their emotionality and fully dwell within their femininity. A woman needs that manly rock-solid stoicism and masculine lightheartedness of a sigma from her man, that very shoulder she really can rely upon and trust to withstand everything she may throw at him, to feel at ease and express femininity in the first place.
      That's why women sh!t-test their man constantly and create drama to test a man's patience and endurance, if he really would reflect that rock in stormy times she fully can rely on.
      Though while other male-types counter these subconscious _test of endurance_ or forbearance as somewhat tox!c, consider it annoying and can't help but step aside in noble hope she might calm down (Hint: That's the wrong way of doing, for obvious reasons!), it might only raises some amused and beloved eye-brows on a sigma's face - *A sigma knows all that inside-out and takes it exactly for what it is:* _Nothing but a silent scream for love from her of asking being manly put in her place, in a lovely and first and foremost masculine manner._
      With a sigma, it always ends up that his woman eventually folds, caves into his arms and comes back running for cozy snuggle-time while having that mousy snoot and lovely expression of abashedness in her eyes for even trying that futile test of stress onto him in the first place. To be fair, for a sigma it's always a little bit of amusement to have her trying to tear down his walls of patience, which have just _„Insuperability, baby!“_ written all over it in bold, capital letters. And with time, she quickly gets exhausted and knows she can truly rely on him, no matter what.
      So while all other male-types get exhausted by those tests of endurance, a woman is charging an open door on a sigma with that. He's not only always a few steps ahead but tenderly plays with it like waving that omnipresent red rag to her bull(ying) and joyfully teases her with her own drama, which tears herself down even quicker (to come back running asking for forgiveness).
      *Hint:* There are no women, but girls alone. _Only fathers and beloved daughters._ Just Daddy and his little girl - She's subconsciously asking for being put in her place throughout life. ♥

      @@mandyads Forgot to mention the alpha and if there's a female counterpart to a sigma;
      Well, a alpha loves to be the centre of attention and display his assertiveness through overt aggression, but they always fold under any greater pressure and especially when times get really rough - That's when the sigma steps up to the plate to do the job and holding out for the time being, just to vanish into the crowd as soon as the job is done, everything is in order and back to normal, shoving the alpha-male into the so-called 'position of leadership' theses alphas oh so love to see themselves in afterwards.
      Meanwhile the sigma smiles from afar about the perfect illusion he put the alphas back into, just to take another journey of a lone wolf again and actually enjoy it.
      The noise of crowds are scornful for a sigma.
      Ironically enough, a sigma is the only natural born leader of all male types, yet he outright refuses to take charge for anything even a second longer then he really needs to, to give the things the right spin again. Also, a sigma naturally draws attention from women, is irresistible for them, yet he doesn't even needs any woman to feel validated or complete (much like any other type of men, especially in this day and age) - He only has a woman by his side for true *_genuine_*_ companionship_ and to teach, help grow and cherish her love.
      The sigma is a walking paradox; There's a really good video about it here on YT: ua-cam.com/video/ozMZXkFPg4E/v-deo.html
      Unfortunately, there is no female counterpart to a male sigma - Just as angels are male, all of them. There's not a single female angel.

    Then comes another layer. Even if the guy is in the "Husband zone" or "Prince charming" zone and hence she is happy in the relationship/marriage, there are two other factors that come to influence with time.
    1st one : Growth. More important, the guy has to show growth in all the mentioned fields which are more important to her ( Earn more with time, get higher position in job, more mentally tough as situations come, etc). As, being stagnant in these makes the brain feel maybe he's not that great with time.
    2nd one: Relativity. Since human brains assess value relatively, if the couple moves into a social circle where every other guy is doing better in many departments than her boyfriend, she feels she can do better for herself in picking a partner.
    So these two factors can make the guy go from Prince charming/Husband material to falling out of love with time.
    This also applies to guys, but it's more in the physical attractiveness of their female partner and increases in their annoyance over time.
    But high value women and men stay and try to change their husband material/keeper partner instead of cheating or breaking up.

The fact that this search for the "right one" today envolves so much experimentation and consideratons on externals is what makes this search self defeating for many.

      Yep, best way to get a new woman is to be seen with another one. Comes to that "pre-approval" thing women do so much, and their innate will to compete with each other.
      This actually makes being in the "friendzone" with women you have no sexual interest in advantageous still. Doesn't matter, if she's still standing by your side, it'll gain you points with other women - so long as they don't realise you've never slept together. The important thing here is to give off the impression that you have, without saying as much, even if you haven't. Easy to do with a friend-zoner that fully trusts you.
      You just need to make other women think the reason your just friends is because you're not interested in anything more with her, not the other way around. Remember if she thinks you're being disloyal, then the new woman'll be more attracted to you because that will give you bad-boy points.
      It works, it really does.
      This is also why it's really in your best interests to remain friends with your exs, so long as you don't continue to overinvest. Then you don't even need to pretend you've slept with them. You've spent time investing in them in the past, may aswell use them as a resource and still get something from it.
      *EDIT:* Side-note, this advice only applies to men. If you are a woman looking for your ideal man, the opposite is true and is best to keep as few male contacts as possible.

The next time you are getting sweet on some young pretty thing... and you hear them say the word "backstage"... you are going to have her pretty little face superimposed on every nasty, debasing, sinful story you've ever heard from your attractive female friends.
      You can tell yourself, "She's one of the good ones" all you want, but the more attractive women you meet, the less you will ever be able to trust an attractive woman.
      That's why there's so many cuck$ out there married to dime-bags. The dimes have been having depraved thrilling sex since they were 14, and the cuck$ are totally into it.These dimes can't be with most men because those men are either too proud or too insecure to be with a woman with a "Dear Penthouse" past... but barring the very religious, they ALL have stories that will make you blush!
      I sh!t you not, MOST dimebags are in the mile high club. MOST of them... and like 90% of them WILL BE by the time they're 30... even though they are not rich. Most men ABSOLUTELY CANNOT HANDLE those stories coming from the woman he loves. They cannot handle the fact that they are going to be giving her the least thrilling sex of her life, and they CERTAINLY can't handle having their woman going around telling people about it.

I also am not in the best financial place in life. In other words, I have very little when it comes to bad guys traits and a lot more when it comes to good guy traits. I can tell you the most successful i have been with women was during a darker period of my life when I was far more of a bad boy and was in more shape or during the pandemic when we were getting all that aid and I bought my own car. Even the latter only gave me a relationship that wasn’t even great. This video is inspiring me to get back to the gym, get back into fighting, do more to stand on my own two feet, and don’t hesitate to do the things to give me a bit more power in life. It’s not actually necessarily a bad thing to be more masculine or look good. It just means you are doing the right things to get power.

    (Edit: this is a rant on why the 'nice guy' strategy is a waste of time.) If you're in the friendzone constantly, consider this: All the emotional support you're offering can be neatly wrapped up by a "thanks for listening". By expecting more than a thanks (as the "Nice guy" does..), you're basically expecting a customer to pay $50 for a $2 item - i.e. that will never ever translate to a woman wanting to fuck you for being supportive. You need to have intrinsic value to others first. Just something worthwhile about you. Then just make your intentions clear. If the woman wants what you're able to offer as a partner, then sex is usually something they'll trade for that. I know it sounds crude to make it sound so transactional but if your only merit is something you give away freely, why would anyone commit to you?
    If you are in a relationship - you do definitely need to communicate and support your partner of course, just stop thinking that this is an effective way to get laid.

There are always outliers in their sexual preferences which are outside looks and masculinity, and also not coincide with Good Guy traits as well.

    • @theseal126
      @theseal126 8 місяців тому +3

      @@IRefuseToUseThisStupidFeature It isnt that simple in my opinion. Look it is like losing weight for example. Like everyone understands it is good for you, as you say people understand each other. However, actually losing weight people dont understand it really why they should do it enough to make them do it. There is a difference between understanding something and truly understanding it. Like if two people understood perfectly what their action in the present lead to in the future, so much so that they could see the happiness or the pain of the future so clearly they could feel it, then there would be no issue in acting. But really we cannot do that so we have to take a leap of faith and do small actions we know will lead to good.
      The first point you are making I agree on, the second point not. For people could say the exact same for men and women that both are too self absorbed and that is why the dating market looks like it does. But really it isnt as simple as that. Making such a comment dispenses with reflection and further gives no solution. Thus it cannot be the right answer. If the solution to the problem cannot be found in the problem, then it is the wrong problem.
      That doesnt mean I know what the problem is, but the problem has one characteristic which is that it generates self absorbed people, but the solution isnt to deal with self absorbing characters, but the thing that creates them and sustains them. And that can be a problem on many levels, and if you actually deep dive into the problem you will see it is nested and tangled with other problems both up and down in abstractions. But if you choose the right abstraction that people want to change and that is actually changeable, then you can solve all those problems in one sweep. That isnt easy, if it was easy it would already have been done. But if you find that, it is equivalent to finding the truth or a new physics law, a human law. Soemthing about humans that cannot be changed so you have to change the environment. For look really if you took a person from 1000 years ago and placed them in todays society, it is highly likely they would be a drug addict, alchohol addict, porn addict, whore, man child, lazy, hopeless, depressed, you name it. So the problem isnt really us but the environment, however the environment wont change until we change. So it still comes down to us. Really if men were better, the dating market wouldnt be this way. IF women were better the dating market wouldnt be this way. But it is and it isnt improving. Which means the environment is pushing them in this direction. So you need to create an environment that easier aligns them with their true desires and an environment all want to partake in so that seemingly over 1 year the whole dating market would change, just like internet changed the world.

    I've begun applying this map to female artists' songs and it's proving scarily accurate at explaining their thinking patterns. Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" came on this evening and I immediately visualized this map:
    "Oh my God, look at that face" (high in Looks)
    "You look like my next mistake" (the good kind of "Mistake", i.e. a Bad Boy)
    "New money, suit and tie" (not just high in Looks, but Masculinity, Presentablility and Investment potential too - he's proving to be more than the Ideal ST)
    "Rumors fly, and I know you heard about me" (our first hint that she has a poor Personality and history of Other Men, and is either a Sleeper or Sweeper)
    "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" (high Presentability + Investment potential bumps him up from a Bad Boy to a Good situationship in her eyes)
    "So it's gonna be forever, or it's gonna go down in flames" (she wants to escalate beyond a situationship, even)
    "Got a long list of ex-lovers, they'll tell you I'm insane" (she's a confirmed Sweeper)
    "Cause you know I love the players" (speaks to HM's point about Bad Boys being the Ideal ST)
    "You're the King, baby I'm your Queen" (she sees him as Prince Charming and wants to be his Keeper)
    "Screaming, crying, perfect storms ... I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream" (she's a Sweeper trying to present as a Keeper)
    I wouldn't mind seeing some shorts where HM plays a song and traces his pen over the zones that correspond with the lyrics.

    I'm 23, yet my understanding of dating is minimal. This helped me realize that I already have qualities that would make me an attractive partner.
    My problem is that I haven't been confident in my understanding of what makes me potentially attractive to women, so I would end up being as nice as I could, but my confidence would crumble quite easily for one reason or another. "Nice guy" + low confidence/self-esteem is not a good look.
    This video breaks it down in a way that makes sense, without trending into pickup artist territory.

      As a woman, I think this chart is at least flawed. (I'm not saying it's _entirely wrong_ because I'm sure there are women it might apply to. Though, for what it's worth, I do not know any where it would). But the truth it, "what makes you attractive to women" depends on the specific woman and what she values. My most recent "ooh, I think I'm in trouble/developing feelings" moment that made me seriously consider my now-boyfriend, then-friend in a new light, was when he separated the plastic from the paper on an envelope to properly recycle each. No dating book could tell you that, but it's something I value, and noticing that we aligned in that way gave me a push, mentally.
      Of course my boyfriend and I share more similarities and aligned values than only that, but bottom line is, any guy that tells you that without great looks and "dominance/power/..." you'll definitely be put in the friendzone by all women, they're either wrong or lying. A shared value system is far more important and of the entire "masculinity" list, the only two that matter at all in my experience (and I'm friends with a lot of women) are confidence and smoothness, and I think they're both somewhat misnomers or at least don't mean what many men think they mean.
      *Confidence* doesn't mean "show off how great you are" or "fake confidence/ego". What's attractive is when you're _interesting_ (which doesn't mean you have to already have done anything extraordinary btw) and _interested_ - have opinions, hobbies, anecdotes, interests, ideally in many different things, and talk about them, and let her in, take her along. And be _interested_ in your partner's opinions / hobbies / ... and be open to trying them/doing them together.
      *Smoothness* is a bit less a misnomer, yes, it means being charismatic, witty, and quick with a clever response. But it only works if it rings true and fits your character. If it doesn't feel authentic, smoothness is useless. Don't be afraid to be a bit silly, don't always take yourself seriously, this is just about a certain lightness and ease in your conversations.

    a good saying is that ’you attract who you are’ which I’ve personally found it be very real in Korea, when I went clubbing alot I got the handshake girls / sleepers, because thats who I was too. After tuning that down and going to experience the culture, arts, history, go on temple tours, other clubs like learning a language, etc, I met the absolute sweetest, considerate and beautiful woman ever and have been dating my definetly ’one and only’ for long enough to meet her parents and brother

      There's nothing inherently better about "art" and "culture". You'll usually find the liberal feminists in those places and they are not keepers. They're downright intolerable.
      If you want REAL keepers, go to Catholic churches and find the truly devout God loving/fearing women.

Focus groups, surveys, questionnaires, and the theorys that framework them can prove many different social phenomena. Research exists for a reason, and you can ask the same group of people the same question to determine commonalities.

      My only criticism of this chart/map is the time phase aspect of this that TRM does cover well, the infamous SMV chart and general phases of woman hood. I think this map applies more to women about 18 - 27 years old. After that, the good guy scale gets more important to women as their looks and fertility start to decline. Even the friend zone guys will start to look like husband material after this point as they can at least provide investment.

      @@connorpatrickmcfarlane7634as a female I think this chart is extremely accurate. Only thing that I thought might need a tweak is moving friendzone below gold digger- someone on the main comment thread mentioned this. This is bc a woman will sleep with a man buying her lots of things and not with someone she’s friendzoned. Obviously this would place him ligher on the ‘good/like’ axis. Also please understand not all women are willing to sleep with a man for $$$. Just as not all men are willing to have a harem. Maybe a third dimension which is like a likelihood distribution on the z-axis which describes how likely either situation is to occur. Then that would convey the prevalence of each box in the general population. Bc each of these things do not happen at the same frequencies.

    This is the best summary I've ever seen on the subject. It also resonates directly with my own experience. In my youth, and until my marriage, I had very moderate occasional success with women. My wife was my 6th girlfriend. Before being married I spent a lot of time alone in between occasional luck, and ended many times in many friend zones. So, you would say lots of nice guy traits , little masculine traits. After my divorce at age 43, I got interested in getting good at dating, and studied pickup artists. What you end up doing is emulating bad boy traits, increasing masculine behaviors, and reducing investment. Guess what, after a couple of years I was getting tons of dates, rotations of girls, etc... ( I have calmed down since then 😅). I feel I have explored the girls zones a bit, and I can directly relate with your map.
