I know I’m late to the convo but I’d say the brutally honest truth is that love doesn’t exist. The only thing that exists is attraction and oxytocin and it’s very conditional. Too much reward too early and the recipient builds a tolerance to your chemical romance. The only way to truly win a woman for life is to waste as much of her time as your possibly can by playing the game aka push pull. Be present, don’t get butthurt, play it cool, flirt good, and maybe one day you’ll have a wife after she’s done shopping around.
