Well I think the opposite. you have positive experiences and like the males personality so you think MOST of them are good when they're actually is a miniscule number that probably are the 'real deal.' LOL. Also, I am going off of what I seen and/or experienced for 32 years of life. Brad agree and he is a guy at least admits some of these things, instead of pretending like all the men are well intentioned when most of them are not. *smh*

Your uncle sounds like a wise man.

I'd hate to agree, but personal experience points that way. It's a shame really.

Yep. This is the reason my ex was with me for as long as he was. He had a girlfriend that paid most of the bils (I made twice as much as he did) did all the laundry, fixed his car for free, made all his meals, cleaned the house and he had sex available on a regular basis. Of course, he cheated on me constantly with hotter women (he told me that was the reason he cheated) so he had the best of both worlds. A wife at home and random hotties on the side. Every man's dream.

Most men would much prefer to just have a string of FWB until he gets too old to bring in the young, hot girls and then he'll settle for a woman who will take care of him.

From my experience, men 'settle' for a relationship just like women 'settle' for a FWB if they can't get a guy to commit.

I see a lot less love and romance from people (regardless of age) these days. It's no surprise to me that relationships seem alien after that.

I'd agree with this especially in the context of this thread about "Younger people". Idk why a woman would settle for a FWB though if that's not what she really wants

Because she's hoping it will lead into a relationship. I've done it, stupidly.
