LOL. buddy. i've got some news for you.
the fact that you can't actually point to a single thing i said (not something you just made up out of thin air) and claim it is actually WRONG, means you're just angry at my opinion.

See, this is what I mean. You have an extremely cynical, corrosive view of relationships, and it leads you to post things like this and assume other people are angry, too.
Relationships aren't something you acquire, they're something you build. You need to be a net asset to your partner, and just bringing home money doesn't count.

> Relationships are no longer transactional
why would that be?
"everything in the world is about sex, except sex, which is about power"
Relationships are no longer transactional. The age of the breadwinner and provider are over. Women are no longer forced to stay home while you toil in the mines or whatever. You're optional.
Because you're optional, you need to be more desirable than no relationship and frankly, a lot of you aren't.
