You Don’t Need a Girlfriend
Today’s article is meant for lost men and boys trying to find their way.
The writing can also be applied to teenage girls and young women trying to find their way, but the article is particularly tailored to men.
For young men and all heterosexual men, there is the drive to have sexual relations with women, which impacts their decision-making and life choices and gives them the false belief that having a woman will correlate to having a better life.
This is entirely false to certain degrees.
Men who cannot hold a job sometimes take responsibility when they become fathers.
Still, even then, that is not conducive to having a relationship and starting a family.
When living a good life, a girlfriend or wife cannot give that to their man.
If they want a good life, they must find purpose and motivation, not just dependent on women.
This can include hiking, going to the GYM, writing, walking, reading, and other productive pursuits that will help one achieve excellence in both a personal and professional capacity by becoming financially valuable.
Put simply, if you want to get a girlfriend, you first need to have a life and find purpose because there is nothing more attractive than a man or a woman with a purpose and a goal in life, and who knows what they want?
