In order for it to be a "maybe" you need a healthy market which has women you
may like to pick.

I am of the opinion that people sucks. Women are people. So women suck. In a
bad way, mind you, not in the good way you are thinking.

I still need to find a woman who is able to convince me that she is worth the
price by the 3rd day. Make no mistake: relationships are ALL about what you are
willing to give in exchange for what, and somehow we have made it so women
demand so many more resources than they are worth.

People used to criticise me for this way of thinking. A big part of those who
used to do, ended up overbuying their relationship and are clearly pumping more
resources into it than they'd consider a fair price, and they can't break out
the deal because it is not socially acceptable at that point.
