There was a line graph somewhere on TRP (before it turned to shit) that captured this idea perfectly. The longer you're with a woman the more shit tests she will put you through - the more she'll ask you to spend on her, the more time commitment she'll want or other devotions of your commitment - moving in together and eventually the worse deal of your life - marriage.

Here's what I noticed - the infatuation stage varies in length of time but as I grew more Red Pill aware the less tolerance I had for bullshit. I have seen my relationships getting shorter and shorter. Knowing that you are falling into a trap and not taking a woman's words at face value is key to making sure you stay on top.

I'm currently dating this girl and we have only been together for two weeks and I'm already sick of her. No life, no friends, depends on me for her entertainment, already saying I love you as if that means anything anyway (not to mention how psychotic that is), and talking about the future of living together. Here's the thing fellas: Living together is about sex & finances. The sex will inevitably get even more routine and less in frequency and you will inevitably being pulling more of your weight than her because you will most likely earn more because you gentleman, apply yourselves. Women do not - they go for bullshit degrees and expect to be paid top dollar.

If you do engage in an LTR either stay with the girl for three months where she is trying her hardest to get you to commit (either more time, money, energy, something) or ride it out but don't cohabitate. There are several studies suggesting that even if everything is amazing (due to the infatuation stage and her being on her best behavior) living together will always erupt into more fights and feeling trapped in your own home. You'll especially be fucked if you're signed into an apartment lease with both your names as you don't have any legal right to kick her out (you become the one who has to pay off her end of the rent unless the lease is terminated).

Always have an end date in mind guys! Mine is when I finally make my move away cross country from my state. Having this in the back of your head makes sure that the power dynamic that is present in all relationships is in your favor or you can skip all this bullshit and be done with women forever (by far one of the best options).
