You mean that men invest less and women more emotionally in a relationship? Could you elaborate more what do you think about this?
My respective from what I've seen of unhappy couples I know is the woman feels like she's always the one sorting everything out and gets no support.
She's the one who keeps the wheels greased and things moving. She has to remind him to pay that bill, cut that hedge before we can't get through the gate anymore, remember your lunch, get a haircut, please wash that t-shirt it smells you can't wear it again, you need to wipe the gunk out from around the taps not just wipe the sink ... these women replace Mum's they're not wives they're surrogate mothers.
Same with emotional things they care for how the children feel if they're getting bullied, they patch up broader family issues, remind x they should phone y because Grandma died and they actually do want some comfort and would like to hear your voice, yes it would be good if you went to your nieces wedding.
They get tired and stressed with it all and feel like no one is there to support them emotionally. They feel like they're always giving out, managing things, not getting any relief.
I remind my female relatives to do stuff or pay bills lol
I’m guess the hedge and shirt doesn’t bother him but does bother her,so it’s more a her issue. I do my own laundry too and I’d gladly do my gf laundry if I had one. I assume could be done together unless Curtis. Clothes are special requirements like my work shirts. Though would women like me less for doing laundry as it’d bee seen as feminine.
I pack my own lunch I could pack her a sandwich. Maybe those women should date me instead:p
my husband did our laundry when he could navigate steps and does the dishes. i cook. we think our arrangement is fair. both parties feeling fairly treated goes a long way toward making a healthy relationship.
I could cook dinner for a gf most nights.
I won’t ever get to find out

I’m guessing he’s good looking and well off(last part would have to be in order to travel to see said girls and pay for them to visit)
I’ve met two women on gaming
One lady is the one who said I’d be a good bf but need a better job so she can go on vacations to Hawaii
The other is a freshly 18 high schoo senior.

The one who wants the vacation seems like a gold digger to me. I'm glad that not all women are like that.
