Married men will choose the former. Permavirgins will choose the latter.

>>463538 Disagree. There are also many non-virgins, even married men, who would prefer to have true love. A lot of married men do not have their true love. Not to blogpost, but while I have gotten an okay number of women by now, that all started way too late in life. By that point I was already bitter and jaded, and the women were all used up and disgusting, and I never really liked any of them. I'd much rather have had a childhood love that I end up getting married to, spending our whole lives together. I see TV shows with people complaining about that, but I also see some other people (well, celebs and e-celebs, since this does seem rare now) that have it, and they seem happy, and I'm jealous. I don't want a lot of disgusting whores, I just want one woman that isn't. I figure if I was with her since we were both very young, then she would have less time to become a disgusting whore. I could try to keep it a bit more under control. I've never met a woman that wasn't a disgusting slut whore. Never. Maybe I've met girls like that when I was a kid, but that all changed as we progressed through high school. The trick is hooking one first and then marrying her. But then women are sluts and whores and won't do that. But if it was my true love my whole life, then she would be good, by definition, so the problem would be solved.

Which do you prefer? False dichotomies, or undistributed middles?

>>463539 What you dream of is a fictional character, not an actual flesh-and-blood human woman. That is why the married men want a lifetime of different women. They know that a lifetime is an awful long time to spend with any one real person, and nobody ever stays the same for long. You are looking for "happily ever after" in the real world, but all that we can really hope for is a good run of fun and adventure before we eventually die in a shitty cockroach-infested trailer in Arizona. Enjoy life while you can. Don't waste it dreaming of an unreality. A short life and a merry one!

>>463542 >A short life But I need a long life to complete my vidya, anime, book, and manga backlogs

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women

>>463542 Sure, but the question said one option was to "fall in love with just one and experience true love your whole life?" You're arguing that's impossible, but it's what the scenario in question was. But lots of people throughout history have gotten married to their first loves. I'd still rather that, even if it's a flawed premise. I don't like the chase. Dating is awful and most women are awful, and they become more awful as they age, largely because they just get sluttier and sluttier as they age. They just keep racking up those numbers, and they can't unsuck those dicks. If I could get one when we were young and just have each other, that would remove a major problem. People have had that before. People have even had women like that that don't end up cucking or divorcing them. (Can't know the true numbers for cucking, but there must be some that don't, right?) This shouldn't be too much to ask. But it's too late for me now. Even if I got a young woman at this point, one like I describe, I'm still ruined, bitter and jaded from wasted youth, from knowing my youth was being wasted as it happened, and trying desperately to avoid that, but being unable to. Even if I found a woman like I describe, I fear that I would not be able to avoid being at least somewhat resentful. >Enjoy life while you can. Don't waste it dreaming of an unreality. A short life and a merry one! You're right. It's a good philosophy. But I'm a weak man, and don't know if I can do what you say. I'm reminded everywhere I look.

>>463539 So, what you're saying is that you are looking for a boyfriend-free girl to make into a sweetheart from the ground up.

>>463572 Yeah. Chris had a dream, and it's one that shouldn't have been as unreasonable as it was by the time he was growing up. I later saw a rather poignant quote from Chris, I don't remember verbatim, but essentially someone alluded to how he's been accused of being a pedophile, and he denied, but said he felt bad about missing out on experiences in his youth, but he had to just accept it and move on. Of course he went a bit too far in the other direction, but still, it was sad to basically see him say that he's given up on his Sweetheart Search. Even he's realized it's too late. Well, guess there's nothing left to do but wait for the Dimensional Merge. See you soon, Sonichu.

>>463539 <A lot of married men do not have their true love. Back in my bluepilled, indoctrinated-by-commie-public-school youth (early 20s), I married a woman who I still really love. She's sweet, and cares about me, but we have a pretty huge issue. Turned out she'd rather eat and watch shit "reality tv" than be romantic with a man who would kill for her. Now I have a roommate who hogs the covers and we're celebrating our 30th anniversary next year. I can't divorce her for reasons I can't divulge, but even if I could, I wouldn't because I took my vows seriously even if she didn't. I'm a married man who is involuntarily celibate, although I won't say I'm something cringe like an "incel." Learn from my mistakes, lads: >girl with a very low or non-existent body count, because you're not going to get a pair-bond out of her, otherwise >discuss way in advance of matrimony what you expect from each other when it comes to money, sex, division of duties, etc., and if she lies to you, force her to hold to it or gtfo >stay in shape even if (especially if) she refuses to, because letting yourself go will just make it hard to start again if/when the divorce happens >don't be stupid enough to let her get her own way in the hopes it will make her happy and, ipso facto, she'll have to make YOU happy, because she fucking won't

I'm really a loner who prefers to spend every moment of his time alone, learning new skills and improving the ones I have. I'm obsessed with learning. I know it sounds cringey but I've always been this way. I chased women, but thinking back, I really just wanted validation because I've never been an attractive dude so, you know, you see other people hooking up and you feel sad like why do I never get to feel hot the way other people do. So on the off chance I got to bang someone, it was never all that satisfying because quite frankly they were down in my league. I ended up getting married after a series of missteps and now I'm in almost exactly the same predicament as >>463863 So anyway, no I'd much rather be left alone and maybe pay for sex when I really need it. I don't think there is such a thing as true lasting love. The more you get to know someone, you inevitably see them in a different light and it's rarely an improvement.

>>463863 Unfortunately an undeveloped woman is a child and must be treated as such, never let her get under your skin or like you said get her way hoping she'll reciprocate because she won't, just like a child wouldn't, but just like children they should not be hated or abused, simply guided. There are some girls who are mature, they are caretakers, and these are mommies, they'll take good care of a man, even if he's a loser.
