Sleeping with the other person too soon.
Sharing finances to control the other or to use the other.
Sleeping with this person until something better comes along.
Letting your insecurity settle for the 70%er.
Letting your insecurity be used by the 95%er.
Having a low self esteem.

These will doom most relationships IMO.

Everyone knows it is good advice but few people actually practice it. I realized I would go through a cycle. Try hard to get laid - cold streak - resign self to not getting laid and focus on me - all of a sudden I'm getting ton's of girls - date one - break up - try hard to get laid - cold streak etc etc.

Just skip out on the cold streak part and do you from the beginning. As a basic rule, start hitting the gym minimum 3x a week. Get some crest white-strips, new haircut, etc. Get some new clothes. Pick up a hobby. I believe you will find it quite enjoyable to be so selfish and just focus on yourself, your passions and on your own improvement.

Seriously bro, you should make a commitment to yourself to not chase after any women or get into any relationship for minimum 2 months. Just ignore them, 9/10 you aren't really missing much. Cultivate yourself, body and mind, and you will find that by the end of the 2 months it will actually be very difficult to keep women away from you.

Nearly 90% of your best times are spent with your bros anyway. There may be women present who help lighten the sausage fest, but it's the bros that make the moment.

At the risk of coming off rude, a lot more women are shallow than men. Sometimes I stand back in amazement at how females define themselves by how weak they can be. But I'm also willing to bet that almost every person on this forum is more interesting than 9/10 of the general population regardless of gender. Keep that in mind.

Why do relationships suck?

Because men and wimmen are physiologically different thats why. Women think different, have different needs, etc. compared to men. Since the dominance of masculinity has largely been downgraded in Western society the more traditional roles of the father being the head of the family no longer applies has thrown a fly in the ointment, so to speak. We are seeing more chaotic relationships because we have strayed away from the traditional male dominated relationship.

In 1910, marriages lasted longer simply because men were dominant. Too many cooks spoil the broth.
