I feel like the idea that women are otherworldly creatures instead of people and seeing someone being nice to their partner as "the man having tamed a female and convinced her to treat him well" has a lot to do with his problem.

I hate how much that is preserved socially, there's no good reason why that hasn't gone away at least a decade or two ago.

Totally agree. I've been in a relationship for 5 years now, and it most definitely didnt involve me trying to tame her 🤣

It was just luck to meet. We both liked each other. That's literally it.

The important feat is making yourself into a person that the other person would like to have in their life and makes their life better.

Yeah, seeing them as a person seems like a crucial part in that equation.

You started with "pspspspsps" and some snacks and you know it
