Search Results: giving advice

I have a wife who cooks for me, cleans for me, gives me financial advice, and pleases me sexually.

I personally provide for her as we are in a traditional relationship. She's been with me through the worst times and helps me through the thick and thin.

I was her first. The first man to have sexual experiences with her at least and she gave her my virginity. I've only had 1 body, for I'm a religious person and would ideally want to wait for marriage.

We were thinking of talking about children in the future, and she would be willing to give me my first daughter or son. We read our Bible together and she stays in the means of boundaries that I've set for her.

She has no guy friends, no drama, and she's an honest woman. It's my goal to provide for my family and since my love language is gift giving, I get her little small gifts like some 20 dollar shoes every few months, or take her out to nice little restaurants.

At times, even when my money's low I still get groceries to show that I love her dearly.

I was just wondering if I was being a simp. We're both quite happy. She makes art of me, and small collages of our moments, and collects sentimental items from our past for rememberable times we had.

I can't tell if I'm simping though or if I'm doing okay.

Both genders are guilty of this. However we are (supposed) to get better at judging and/or giving advice as we get older and more experienced.

But I’ve had grown ass woman say some ridiculous things to me in the past. I feel like many of them take a common mental shortcut falsely believing that dating is same more men as it is for themselves (when all else equal). It’s not. Not at all. Not even close.

That’s not say I don’t know women have to deal with some common pitfalls. Many men will lie to women and tell want them just what they want to hear to get their foot in the door. They figure that once a woman catches feelings for them they will get a “pass” on their bs. Sadly this sometimes works if the guy is good at it. But not always. Also it never works out in the long run for guys. Plus it makes women more bitter and resentful to men in general after the process.

But anyway I feel most women who criticize men don’t put the mental effort into understanding the challenges most men face in the early steps of dating.

Most don’t understand how we are expected to take risks and stick our necks out. How we get shit tested. How we usually have to plan dates and usually spend money. How the odds are usually stacked against us. How we are supposed to keep calm and brush off (sometimes nasty) rejection and just move on quickly forgetting about it. How women falsely assume that men run into just as many opportunities as they do. Etc.
