Tarl, the point is that she is showing off the ring. If she felt the need to show off anything, to the world, it would be the man who payed for it. As in, ” I have, by far, the greatest man in the world.”
Instead, she has a new shiny toy and this is all so “fun”. It is about her and the attention, and toys, that she is getting.

@ Tarl – I agree. I’d probably be more concerned if she was silent. I don’t think what she did is a harbinger of a painful, sexless and costly future for her fiancee.
Talking about the engagement ring is a good way to test a girl, and it’s also a good conversation starter. If you just ask a random group of girls if it were alright for their fiancee to propose using a ribbon, they’d go ballistic. It gets really fun when they come up with these ridiculous justifications for it. After enough time goes by, most girls will usually just admit that they want to have something to show to their friends. The breakdown in their faux logic is more entertaining than the NBA playoffs up to this point.

I think the sad part is that she said nothing about the guy, and her picture is one of her hand, overpriced rubbish – i.e. diamond, and a bunch of expensive flowers. With her reaction being ‘FUN!’, as opposed to “I’m in love!”, or “I’m marrying the best guy ever!”, she cements the notion that this has nothing to do with her fiancee, but is merely an exercise in materialistic status whoring. Wonder how much the wedding will cost the poor sap. Offshore your assets now!!

Tarl – having the ring on means nothing anyway.
With the ring on:
How many engagements have been broken?
How many divorces from infidelity/”boredom”?
How many affairs?
An even better question- how many of these have been prevented by the ring?
If the would be bride found herself about to have an affair (have an affair- such a neutral way of saying it that absolves the woman of responsibilty; big suprise), in a fit of emotionalism and gina tingles after having been swept off of her feet by a smooth talking Lothario- and then stopped when she looked down at her ring and remembered her promise- it might be a worthy investment.
But how often do women do that? I would guess not often- most women are completely controlled by their emotions and gina tingles.
A ring, and the wedding for that matter, is, at best, a wasted investment and, at worst, a fraud, in that it does not procure what is promised and what the man expects and desires….
The love and fidelity of his bride.

You are right that many of us would love to have a legit woman that we could tend to and start a family with. Such sentiments are natural for most men.
That’s why there is talk of “natural alphas.” A natural simply doesn’t have the nurturing genes.

Loon_Jobbie says…I’m pretty new to the Game myself…but I think this is a classic example of a shit test. The good news is that she could be REALLY into you and is just testing you. She would only test you in this way to make sure that you are Alpha enough for her. Stop trying to contact her if you are. A good course of action would be to write on your Facebook status some bullshit about having another hot date tonight with a cute girl. When girl #1 contacts you acting strangely angry and expecting you to know why, don’t ask her “what’s wrong?” or try to make her happy. Treat her like a spoiled child, laugh at her, make fun of her and seem really happy with your lot in life. Be completely oblivious to her self-created pain.
If she actually challenges you on dating other people, just laugh it off and tell her “she’s acting cute.” Don’t get defensive or accuse her of saying she did not want to see you. Whatever you do, do not go right over to her place if she wants to see you, and do NOT offer to cancel your date to see her. Remember, you have another “date” and it would be rude to cancel. Do not break down or get serious with her. Eventually she will hang up, but the important thing is that you do not call her back to apologize or to tell her how important she is to you.
In a day or two she’ll most likely call you back, just act like nothing happened and you can schedule a date with her. If she later tells you she met someone herself, act really happy for her and tell her “you see? There is a jack for every Jane!” Praise the guy to the heavens, and explain how you were too much of a jerk to make a good boyfriend.
Hope this helps.

There’s nothing particularly wrong with a girl showing off the ring. For one thing, the ring is actually a status symbol for the male as well as the female. It’s a little like peacocking: the ring doesn’t show off your woman’s prowess, it shows off the man’s prowess. The woman is essentially basking by showing that her man has solid status. Her status is thus derivative of the man’s status, and that’s a good place for a woman to be. Also, from a purely practical perspective, people want to see the ring, so it makes sense to show it. Heck, even men usually want to see the ring when a girl gets engaged – if nothing else, to get a feel for the kind of guy who bought it, and where he stacks up in the status competition.
From my perspective, I think there are two primary problems with the photo: first, the idiocy of the comment “FUN!” shows that this girl is a monosyllabic quasi-retard; and second, that is a small, crappy ring.

Yes, men are designed differently, I have been studying them for years now. And to add to it, the current climate of romance/dating/marriage, etc. is for shit to say the least. It has been well documented and fumed over here, so I get where many of you are coming from. In real life, for me at least, I don’t have to have a guy that reached the level that many of you speak of. There are guys that haven’t hit the jaded wall. There are men who still get enjoyment out of pairing off with someone for however long it lasts. Some need absoluteness, others the opposite. There’s a lot of gray in between–and that’s what makes up a lot of the threads we read/chat on. From what I can tell (so far) both guys and gals are looking for the less jaded type.
Those who are jaded are done, spent, sold, lemons. The tracks are laid already and they are a passenger. Who wants to have a shitty time because either someone else didn’t/isn’t getting laid enough (conservative dork) or didn’t put their pace at a healthy one (spastic sex addict) and burnt themselves out?

Anyone who has had actual relationships with women knows these things are true, unless they’re still suckered by the bill of goods the Pedestalization movement sold us all.
Anti-Marriage is dead on.
Women: Take a good, hard, long look at the dating and marriage world as it appears to men. See how men see you.
23 “boyfriends” before your third year of college? Men love fucking you. Only retarded men and the loser betas you hate so much will have anything more to do with you once they’re done.
Realize: I’m going to have to manipulate the living shit out of any guy to get him to marry me.
Men: be forewarned and forearmed. Be single. Learn game. Sleep with them, adore them, exchange lovers’ embraces and enjoy women. They’re great creatures. Lots of fun.
But don’t marry them. You might luck out, but there’s a pretty good chance you’ll be screwed to the wall. And the same woman smiling at you (more likely the camera) at the wedding will be pulling out your left eyeball while she sneers during your divorce. Don’t worry: you get your revenge when she’s 35-45 and bitterly single and you’re fucking her friends’ daughters.
The biggest loser: All of us. We’ve created this through passive acceptance. Our society is going straight into the toilet.
Western society: No children; women having kids past 35 years of age just to get even one; nuclear war on the family and any kind of social bonding;
and opportunistic, limber PUAs to collect the pussy pieces that fall out.

“If you want to know if a woman is only with you for your money, in other words prostituting herself to you, then take away the money. Better yet don’t cough up high ticket items or cash in the first place.”
There is nothing wrong with letting a woman know that you have money if you’re genuinely loaded. The important thing is to not let her ‘have the keys to your vault’, as Tom Leykis had succinctly described it.
You own a gorgeous car? She doesn’t get to ride on it, or at least won’t get to be chauffeured around on her whim. You are also not obliged to splurge on gifts for her during V-day(avoid, avoid, avoid the 14th of February) or her birthday or some silly anniversary.
Of course, avoid marriage and cohabitation too. She may call you a cheapskate, but so long as you have banged her at least ONCE, you have got your return on investment in full. She, her opinion and her displeasure can collectively go take a hike while you move on with your wonderful life.
DTB swiftly with a ‘There’s the door’ when she presses for ‘commitment’, usually either by issuing an ultimatum or with buckets of tears. Do not give in, relent and buy that ring. Stand your ground.

10 years together is like 3 long lifetimes together, not lack of ADD — and it is much less sex together…I’m sorry to say that.
I mean… we have to work like crazy to have a life AND share it with a spouse. She is always giving some trouble being obnoxious and she never really helps — because women are “liberated” from having to work a marriage. And then if you have only her, she will loose interest in spontaneous, daily sex with you, making your life hell! You have to game and game and game to have sex with her once a week, and it drains you out.
I’m here to learn LTR game, not preach the benefits of marriage. But I will say that I’ve been married for 15 years and it is nothing like you describe.
My wife and I are incredibly bonded, with stronger chemistry (sexual and otherwise) than when we first dated. We never run out of things to talk about, and often talk late into the night when we should be sleeping. I work from home and she only works a few hrs a day so we are always together. If we are away for a few days we really miss each other. I won’t share the details of our sex life except to say that she doesn’t deny me and often enough literally drags me into the bedroom when I’m focused on something else or on my way out the door doing anything manly (hunting/shooting/fishing/kayaking/fixing something). Working from home has its benefits, which brings new meaning to the typical afternoon break. At 35 she is still amazingly sexy to me.
And as most here already guessed I’m pretty beta. I’ve learned some great LTR game ideas from this site over the last few months, which has made our marriage that much better.
So yeah, marriage 2.0 really sucks legally, and the vast majority of women aren’t worth the risk even for beta guys like me. But not all such marriages are loveless sexless hells on earth.

I’m a huge romantic
Says the woman who had sex with a primate on a public bus.
but romance has nothing to do with anyone but the two people in the relationship.
….and all the other people on that bus. LOL.
When anoukange decides to show off her husband and her kids it will be on Facebook.

Dalrock,
It’s more common than you think, you shouldn’t say that the women unsuitable for this kind of marriage are “vast majority”. There are several other regular commenters on this blog who have happy long-term marriages with plenty of good sex.
Of the minority of women suitable for marriage, a much smaller subset will be compatible with any given man, but they’re not rare enough that it isn’t worth looking for them.
The most important features to look for if you want a happy permanent relationship (apart from the obvious ones that you’re attractive to each other and compatible) are
1) consistent good character in matters unrelated to dating and relationships (of course good character in relationships is even more important but harder to get an objective picture of in advance)
2) an intact traditional family with whom she is on good terms
3) on good terms with all ex-boyfriends (but not so good that she will still fuck them!), and they should be countable on one hand.

“So yeah, marriage 2.0 really sucks legally, and the vast majority of women aren’t worth the risk even for beta guys like me. But not all such marriages are loveless sexless hells on earth.”
Still, when married you are legally bonded to a grand total of ONE vagina, or else. It is a major rip-off. Don’t forget additional annoyances that come with the package eg. in-laws and various little restrictions she will impose on you eg. how you spend your money, whom you hang out with.
The have been many cases of the wife taking the husband to the cleaners after 10,20 years of marriage. Or grannies murdering or attempting to murder their husbands. Even if you deem yourself happily married now, do not think that things won’t change in the future.
Lastly, marriage has nothing to do with love. It’s a business transaction sealed by a legal contract. Sometimes political alliances are forged between two families through a marriage. There is also nothing ‘holy’ or ‘spiritual’ about it. Even in the days of Marriage 1.0, married men were reduced to breadwinning beasts of burden. It was still a bad deal, though obviously not as bad as Marriage 2.0 of today.

Bingo. Been there, done that. She had 27 “boyfriends” by the time I met her. I took the sex, and that was it. She talked about marriage, when I shot that down, she went psycho.

Not all women are superficial gold diggers. I never wanted or received an engagement ring. My wedding band was simple and inexpensive as was the wedding reception and honeymoon.
I love and respect my husband. We’ve been together and faithful for a long time. After 24 years, he presented me with an antique ring circa 1930, so no blood diamond.
I was from the NYC area, so conspicuous consumption was the norm long before it became fashionable throughout the rest of the country.
And in case you’re wondering, I had no shortage of interested men. I wanted the quality man, however, and not the game players. Be discerning about the women you pursue.

Prophet J-
My end goal in life isn’t marriage. I’ve just not honed in on that specifically. If it happens, it happens because the guy and I wanted to make it happen. I just find it unnecessary. As I’ve stated here before, I was in a six year /live together relationship and I was well taken care of by him with no marriage (he made three times what I did)…but I also met him when he had nothing, so he knew I loved him genuinely. I make a good enough living that I can support myself entirely on my own in an expensive city so I am somewhat independent in that sense, but I’m busting my ass to do so. I didn’t have to work-work when with him, I was a freelance artist only. The point is, I was happy, he was happy. I saw how hard he worked for his money and since I know what it’s like to work hard, I had/have no intention of taking, sneaking or outright stealing a man’s money. If he doesn’t want to share it with my broke ass, I’m doing something wrong as a woman. I have great respect for men who earn money because it’s hard to do.
Marriage is for when two people want children. Outside of that, my own life has proven to me that it’s not a necessity. I know it sounds like a joke, but really, I’m in it for the love and for the company of the guy. I’ve been proposed to, I said no. Why change what ain’t broke? It’s gonna take more than society’s norms to turn me away from what instinctively feels right for me.

I find this sad in so many ways. But, I don’t really feel sorry for the guy, it was his own mistake. She’s also going to get what she wants. It’s a win-win situation until the day of divorce. He’d just have to learn how to keep her tied down, it’s a possibility even if it’s a very low one.
What I don’t understand is how do the women who are unloyal to their men even make it into a relationship? I can pick out the not-good-girls by a look and a few minutes of conversation, and I cringe when one of my guy-friends starts dating one….
