      Excellent question - I experienced this and put up with it and forgave it when I was a 'nice guy'. My approach was to be understanding and see beyond it and love the person underneath and 'not take it personally'. I thought if I was super-nice I'd have a great relationship. Ended up being treated like a doormat and cheated on.

      I found out that I was just having my boundaries tested and the nicer I was the more I was pushed - a bit like a child with a new nanny or a schoolroom full of kids testing out a new teacher to see what they can get away with. I remember being sent on errands to go and fetch things and doing it...

      It's a sad realization but it's why I now have no moral issue with being red pilled and telling feminists where to get off. For the record I was brought up by my mother and sister who drilled it into me from an early age that I had to be the perfect gentleman, be a 'lovely man' while they both slagged my dad off with a vengeance. I'm no misogynist, I love women and have my boundaries now - which is much better.
      My mother always blamed me for the divorce. For being way too nice.

        For me the ideal Tinder profile has a decent face pic (so you can see if they're actually attractive), a full-length shot so you have some idea of figure, and the rest just establish what they like doing, be it feeding tigers in India (more common than you might think), water skiing or playing sports.
        Can those be combined into water sports?

          If we take away their rights, what's left?

The Polish girl I was talking about had previously had 3 other long term relationships, all with abusive boyfriends of varying different natures. I actually think in some kind of messed up way, she needed someone with a firm hand because when she found someone nice who wasn't up for an argument, she didn't really know how to behave and just be normal. It was a bit like she lived off the drama!
            So many English men make a mess of dating Eastern European women, they just don't understand them. They are very different. They want you to be "manly", to know what you want and just go on and take it. At the same time they want doors opened, lots of compliments like an English girl of the 30's.

            Somebody should run training courses.

              This is what I've read in lots of places. Getting the right mix of manly and gentleman.

                    Look, I'm going to let you all in on on the best place to "hit" on a women. I have no need for this super power any more as I'm happy and settled for many a year.

                    Ok you might say "you are the woohoo" or "you are probably personality of the year for 2017". You could reasonably argue that something works for me wouldn't work for you. You may be a big ole fatty that smells, but even you Scoots would have a chance.

                    My secret power.

                    TAKE UP HORSE RIDING BY HAVING LESSONS!

                    You will be surrounded by women. These women don't get to meet men, they spend their time with horses. You have no competition from other men and these women literally are desperate. I can't stress this enough, they are desperate to meet and speak to men and if you share or even pretend to share their love of horses, well you can't lose.

                    Now there are some bigger women there but most are very, very fit - in the sense they have six packs. Some are very attractive and in a normal eco system some of you would be laughed at. But here you have a chance.

                    Don't abuse this power.
