    I also see many people treating dating as like an exam, where if you “fail” that’s your fault, rather than this particular pairing of people just not working out. Pickup “artists” are the worst about this.

    And like, why would you even want to force a relationship to happen if you two don’t match well? That’s gonna be bad for everyone involved… unless… it’s not about a personal relationship at all, and perhaps it’s about having a commodity in your possession…

      They just view getting married and having kids as a checklist to complete for society’s sake rather than something fun your can do. People should only do these things to fulfill their own happiness. Evolution nor the tribe only really use you.
