Meanwhile.. Are you still engaging in "the social game"  
(flirting, friendship, communication) with the female people  
that you cross paths with? Or.. have you decided that none of  
that is worth it?

Some people dole out the material currency in the relationship  
only to be overwhelmed with maintaining the status quo.  The  
emotional currency can be just as costly or unsatisfactory.
