my hot take of the day is that most people are too emotionally retarded to maintain a healthy romantic relationship for a long period of time

you dont start out emotionally retarded, its something that's beat out of you over the years. talk to me in 30 yrs.
Oh Lawd, what happened?
Not going anywhere near this one, lol. πππ
People have expectation that do not match the real world. Gratitude is the main missing part of most of chaotic people
and too traumatized lol
Do you have examples to cite?
Probably true
Yep. Trauma.
My impression was more than being popular and hot means you are chronically disatisfied with your partner because you have so many opportunities to cheat.
You mean shakiraππ€£ππ€£
its a bad strategy because being hot is like 33.33% of the importance in a relationship
I hate to be that guy, genuinely, but most modern women fall in this category.

Investigate how long she's known the partnered friends she actually talks to.
If there's a big gap between "high school" and "last year", run away.
If there's nothing before "last year", run away really fast!
This won't filter out gold diggers, but it will filter out narcissists and compulsive cheaters.
sounds like youve managed to avoid that dissatisfaction anyway π€
statistically unhot take.
That's not a hot take.
No, they're just regular retarded. These are the same people who buy Chrysler products.
Most people should probably be alone and sort themselves out before inviting another person into their lives.
Lots of cope out there from unhappy people in relationships who are simply scared of being alone with themselves.
yes
Underated note
Agreed
Humans are opportunistic. π€·π»ββοΈ
π― That struggle is definitely not my struggle.
I also don't really get the whole mentality around it, as choosing a spouse was something on my TODO list and it's like... but I already did that. Why would I revisit that ticket over and over, like some sort of perpetual Mating Groundhog Day? π€·π»ββοΈ
It's like other people do a weekly Partner Retrospective, but I got shit to do.
I'm not married, but probably because I don't participate in groundhog Day at all....
I was never willing to make the compromises.
there are so many interesting things to get involved in, just decide what your life is going to look like and be done with it. I think it's really self-involved for people to always be considering "is this situation good enough FOR ME? maybe I can make it a little bit better FOR ME."
they end up spending so much time screwing around with the window dressing of life, they never actually make anything substantial.
love is the cure β¨
you were on the mark with this one
