Magenta said: She is the victem. Shit gets so confusing because people don't know how to articulate what they feel. To use a cliche, 'She was driven to the arms of another man' because her partner wasn't being a man.
It probably sounds like i'm white knighting here, but i'm not. The truth is most women like to live in a fantasy world where they believe that their partner could have any woman they desire, but their partner chooses them because their partner thinks they're the best. Anytime the man acts in a way that contradicts this fantasy, the woman begins to resent him.
And what part of this isnt a double standard?

I never denied the double standard. I was trying to help MagicalOrangutan understand why the double standard exists as he requested in the op.

Yeah that's another resentment I have about dating....women want men who are attractive enough to get a lot of other women because then that woman feels like she's awesome because she's with a man who's awesome, the top of the evolutionary food chain. We spread our genes by sexual reproduction, therefore the men who can get the most women are the ones who are the shit, they're the superior males who are the top of the evolutionary totem pole. And women feel cool if their man is one of these rare men.
If a guy can't get other girls very easily, her respect and admiration in him will go flat and she'll be tempted to ditch him for a guy who makes her feel cool
This of course only applies to younger people of reproductive age
-------------------- On the ground you lay, with your dogs you pray, at a neon hieroglyph sky you gaze Hugging your mind, praying to survive, feeling the love of the hieroglyphs in the sky We all need more love, and mainly less hate Hate is the blind that covers the heart's eye That makes the heart's eye cry Locked deep away in the skies of our minds It's all in the mind
