Search Results: how do i find out if a girl likes me

Is this what many men do? Give up authentic parts of who you are and your personality just so you have a real chance with the women to end up in a relationship or marriage? Altering yourself like that by destroying who you really are to not being truly yourself just so you have a relationship, marriage and or kids? Is not getting a relationship or marriage or the end of your bloodline thanks to you being your true self really so much worse than being with a woman loving you being your fake self and risk getting divorced and becoming a pay slave for when either she finds out you're not who she thought you are or you fall apart from imitating like that?

And before you say "What is this Nonsense? Men don't do that" what if i told you there are men, that don't show you that they've sacrificed parts of who they are as much as they don't show feelings? Point being you are probably unaware, that some men gave up parts of their personality and who they are and are actively putting up an impressive facade version of "manly man" of themselves for you girls. Anything just to be in a relationship or marriage or not risking the end of their bloodline.

I want to find a super pretty nice girl.

I am 26 so I am thinking I should try when I’m 28.

At the rate I am going at 28 I would be so set in my career and develop a lot of skills, I would be muscly and fit, maybe more handsome with more style. Work on myself.

Then I could pick up a stunning nice girl 24 years old looking to settle down? Maybe they would take me more serious at 28 too.

I want to get feedback on my partner:

- She’s not keen on me seeing friends, for my safety and would rather I met them with her. She also uses the find my iPhone feature with me.
- She messages me and phones various times per day, and gets frustrated if I don’t reply quickly, she says it’s to check I’m ok,
- She tracks my spending on her, to check we’re in budget. Even if I a buy a coffee she’s brings it up and asks why I bought it.
- She’s says if I don’t spend $$ on her birthday present I don’t love her. Also said her birthday needs to be “perfect” with hundreds of balloons etc and fancy cake.
- She doesn’t like me having a female friend at work, has told me to stop going to lunch with her. Said it’s to ensure I don’t “cheat”. She messaged my friend at work on Facebook to ask about me.
- My partner doesn’t like me following other girls on social media even friends.
- She told me I can’t have anyone better than her.

Is she a good partner? I’m really conflicted as this is my first relationship. My female friend said there is red flags everywhere, is she right?

For me it’s obvious; I’ve got one life. I would never settle. It really is both components. I know if I’m physically attracted to a girl at first glance, no personality overcomes a lack of physical attraction at all. Just as no amount of beauty overcomes crappy personality. Both are just as necessary. (Mind you everyone finds different types attractive so I don’t believe in leagues).

With a significant other there’s no in between for me, it’s enthusiastic yes or no thank you. I’m polite with giving and receiving rejection but I am resolute here. I just don’t understand people who don’t soneone because they don’t want to be alone. I’m scared of being alone sure-but settling scares me much more and I’m sure most healthy people would feel similar. Otherwise you’re dating just to have someone rather actually having a desire for a person.
