Varg didn't start having kids till he was like 35
To be fair the rest of the time he was in prison lol
I think what he meant was that you have to actually step up and be a leader. No woman is going to meet all of your expectations right out of the gate...
Not really about settling for less
Yeah that perfect person in your head doesn't exist
its important to put into perspective that your SO may have attributes that may be less than ideal. You need to decide if you can live with this. No one is perfect
Surely we all have deal breakers but i think its important to not have an infinite number of them

At the end of the day you're lucky to just find one willing to grow with you
"elbows too pointy. NEXT!"
Yeah, I think any well adjusted person realizes this.
Everyone is flawed and a work in progress
Does anyone know any good dating apps that aren't scams or structured like a gimmick
Idk man, the idea of dating apps is kinda flawed, like only broken women who can't get a date irl are on them in my experience.
It's just getting off the ground
Oh wow
Can't vouch for it
Just know it exists

Wheat field update #3: Due to a continuing lack of women we have decided to fertilize the wheat fields. Will update again in 15 days.
how do you tell the difference between a girl just being nice to you/platonically friendly and her giving signs she's into you?
There's entire books about this sort of stuff, but just asking is probably the easiest option. If you don't want to be super obvious just ask her to do something alone with you.
tbh i'm not sure if I'm into her
there's a girl in my martial arts class who started at the same time as me
and all this time I have no idea if she's just been friendly with me or trying to subtley tell me she's into me
so I'm just hoping for some kind of wisdom so I could differentiate
Yeah if you're not really interested in her then I would just not even worry about it. Just do what you normally do and let her escalate things if that's what she wants to do.
>women
>escalating things
🤔
Well if you are not interested and she likes you and she never says anything that's not really your problem.
fair enough
@Gaius Mucius Scaevola look up IOIs (indicators of interest). Study these and eventually you’ll be able to tell on your own if she’s into you.
Newly single. Advice on looking for someone who could be considered "marriage material?"
And/or what should be some basic criteria to look for?
I might be biased, but, being an IE member is a good start
IE > general population
True, and I'd agree. But what would list as criteria to look for, in terms of character?
@SamanthaM I think some important qualities in a partner are:
1. Able to communicate with you comfortably.
2. Being able to separate who you are as a person apart from what your emotional state might happen to be at one particular time.
3. Looking to make you comfortable.
I think these 3 go both ways in a successful relationship.
@SamanthaM are you asking for yourself?
@SamanthaM being a single women in IE is an absolute jackpot. idk if you go to meet ups but if not you should. the people(men) who i have met here are top quality. in terms of your question, i'd say someone who conveys to you that they want marriage and kids in the not so distant future. as in, someone who expresses intent and does so routinely. someone who isnt afraid of commitment.
also someone with their career together. as in, they have a job they like and they have a path to advancement
guys need to be financially secure in order to be available for marriage/kids
