Men, without blaming women, why can't you keep a woman?

[Anonymous]

Simple question. Don't blame women, be real in your responses.

Also I'm asking this same question, but to women as well, that is why this is gendered, so responses that include "but what about women" or "why is this gendered" will be removed as nonsense responses and are against site rules.

Also asking anonymously so everyone can respond.

“Can’t” doesn’t apply.
I’ve been rejected and dumped.
I’ve rejected and i’ve dumped.
Not everyone is going to be compatible with everyone else.
I’m a rare man with meaningful preferences and boundaries, and i just never found a woman who met my expectations whose expectations i met in return. And that’s after i got my sh*t together. When i was still a sh*thead, i thought i met “the one” a couple of times.
But i was still very self centered and overly reactive. I hadn’t mastered compromise and acceptance, even of myself. There was always this little part of me that expected there must something wrong with a woman who likes me. Ell oh ell!

Some women object to being confined in cages. Even when I give them straw and an exercise wheel.

Keep? I can't even get one.

What is this "keep" you speak of
