This bit, in particular, is good advice.

Quote:
Have More Than One Option

This is something I always stress but only because it is so true. When you get hung up on a honey sometimes, you start wondering about every little thing she does - did she go out tonight? With who? Why didn’t she call? ETC!

I have always put myself in a position where, quite frankly, I am way too busy to even worry about what she (or any) of the women in my life are doing! It’s actually a nice break when I DON’T hear from them!

More than one option makes you relaxed and allows you "give" - you can afford to make a mistake because you have a "spare."


I don't care for the way the last line is worded but, until you've established that the relationship is serious and exclusive, you should not make any one woman the center of your existence.

Why not go a step further and have several wives? I don't see what the difference is.

That can be a good idea Image
