This raises an interesting question for us though, with the roles slightly reverse.
Say you are 38, not too old but already reached your prime couple years back. Your finances are all in order, but you wont be Bill Gates. You have game and can still occasionally pull quality, but you are losing the edge to younger guys.
You are in a LTR with a girl with mother-of-your children qualities: 25-28, traditional, loving, cook and clean, wants stability, low maintenance, a solid 7 but not more. You know you wont find girls like this everyday, but you cant help lusting after all the young pussies waving at you.
Your girl want children (justly) and set her ultimatum.
Do you get the ring or you keep playing the field, thinking like the women in the OP, that a better adventure awaits you elsewhere?
It is indeed an interesting question. And I will be brutally and totally honest here.
First of all, you cannot compare a 38 year old male and a 38 year old female. ESPECIALLY(!!!) if that male is financially stable, is in shape and has some Game knowledge. A man of that age can offer much, much more than a female counterpart. Now, if that man happens to be a RVFer, he can offer EVEN MORE. On the other hand, what a female of that age can offer that a hot, barely 18 year old girl, can't? Absolutely NOTHING of value(!!!).
Second thing, guys...do not have the mentality that you are past your prime when you reach 38. You are at your prime. Again: YOU ARE AT YOUR PRIME(!!!). You are in the same position as a 18 year HB.
Again, and especially if you are RvFer...you do not follow the rules various low SMV freaks (feminazis, SJW's) have laid before you ( age acceptance, taboo topics, big is beatiful...). Now...you are the ONE MAKING THE RULES(!!!). You refuse to lose weight? Buzz off. You try to make me join some crusade for "justice"? Buzz off. Nagging too much? Go home, and nag your Mom,
I will emphasize again...if you are 38, and have your shit trogether...you do not follow the rules...you make them. Especially if you follow this forum. Everyone of us can be in this position. I am much younger (26), and I intend to be in that position when I reach that age. Everyone can do it, if he so chooses.
With that being said, that leads us to the following question. I will quote again the question:

You WILL find plenty of those girls, trust you me. DO NOT ADOPT THAT MENTALITY!!! I do not know how is the quality of girls in France, but I can say that there is a plenty of these kind of girls in more traditional cultures. In my area (Balkans), there are more than enough (I am a local so...) .. Not to mention that these girls are younger (on average), prettier (on average) and have low (or none) of CC mileage. Of course, now, if someone prefers a traditional girl of other race (Asian for example)...there are plenty of those as well.
Second thing, if a girl (and by that I mean ANY girl) ever gives me an ultimatum (and I consider an ultimatum of any kind a direct threat to my personal sovereignity)...I would raise my voice and tell her, in short, that, as long as I am the captain, I will not tolerate ultimatums and dissents, of any kind, from my crew (punishment would by pounding the fuck out of her in the sheets, repeat offense will mean breakup). She is not in a position to threaten me, because...she is very expendable. Time is on MY side, not HERS, after all
. Every girls, traditional or not, deep inside of her, knows that!!
And finally, any man can play the field for...quite a long time, until he decides to settle down. He, after all, can make children as long as he is alive, pretty much. Can George Clooney make children? Yes. Can a woman his age? I do not think so. As we can see, rules are quite different for both sexes. That woman in OP's post thought that they were the same, and she learned, firsthand, that they are not.
Phew!
You have a good attitude, but I'm guessing you are around my age?
The hypothetical guy in my post is probably the above average RVF here, which is why I use him as an example. Because then you are very tempted to not settling down, which, like this chick found out, is probably not a good idea, though it wont hit us as hard.
I dont know how to explain this, but I'm 25 and there are a lot of things I did at 20 that I can no longer do. Though I live much better now with a girlfriend among the hottest I've gamed, it doesn't change the fact that in 10 years there will be even more things that I will no longer be able to do.
What I noticed most is a diminished passion for girls and wild fun. I used to force myself to go out 5 times per week, seek out the best venue to dance and meet girls, do whatever it takes, throwing away my ego and judgement... All that just to meet girls. I no longer feel that passion anymore.
Its not that I get complacent or rusty. I still game every now and then, and I see that I still got it. Its just that being in LTR with a pretty girl, then being surrounded with hot girls in both work and social circle throw off a lot of the glamour of the chase for me. When I see a hot girl, I still have that "fuck yeah WB" feeling, but another part of me is saying "I know who you are".
Some days my LTR feels tiring, but in general I enjoy it more than the hunt, and I know it will just keeps going in the same direction the more I age. And I see this with every player friend I know. Some of them are even dark triad, but the moment they find a good girl they settle, often sooner rather than later. And I've heard good things from it. My own mentor who used to post sarcastic approaches on his FB, nowadays focuses on his bike racing and business since his girl is taking care of all his needs. I have not talked to him in a long time, which is a good sign because that means we are both doing well.
What I am trying to say is, if you do find a good girl, it does make your life better. Life is not as simple as "I make the rule, you follow" as you said. At one point, you realize 1) people aren't following you any more 2) being a lone wolf is ok, but having your pack (family) is better. And for the record, a LTR material girl has every right to set an ultimatum for you to stick around. If she doesnt do it, she is either too naive / stupid, or has low self-esteem.
But if we postpone it too much, it gets harder to find a good girl. Not as hard as the wall for female, but it does get harder.
I can already tell you that working vs being in college makes a fuck huge difference in terms of energy level and access to hot AND young girl. At 40, competing against other young guys who got it made for the incredibly rare LTR material gets harder and harder. I know because I am the young guy, and other older guys trying to nip girls away from me and my bros fail miserably, despite them being much more successful. "He is old" is a very poweful barrier, and the type of girls who are into older guys are not LTR material, trust me.
I'm still too young to worry about this but I'm realistic as to the existence of the male wall. There are a lot of ways around it, but as others have said, as you get older your priorities change.
I am a year older than you, and I can relate. Right now you are making a decision which will affect your life.
When I faced life altering decisions (had plenty of those), I went somewhere far away from anyone. Any place did the trick - empty apartment, cabin in the woods... . There, I meditated and thought about the actions which I was about to do. That helped me a lot, because all the decisions I made while being in that state in mind made my life better. And no, I did not use LSD or something.
What I want to say is think, and think WELL, because...the REST OF YOUR LIFE (!!) is at stake. Do not ask yourself a question "Do I deserve HER?". Rather...ask yourself "Does she deserve ME?". And "Do I want, and can afford a family NOW with my LTR, or MAYBE LATER with some other LTR?". Only you will, (un)fortunately, know the answer. Nobody else will, because...they are not YOU.
To wrap it up, do not do a decision in order to impress anyone - whether RvF, SJW's etc. If you like your LTR, and want to settle down with her - good luck. If you want to be a player (and settle down if you choose to, on your terms) - good luck.
Now, the other part of your post concerning age.
Many older guys (from what I have seen)...are being way too creepy (they behave like 20, although they are nearing 40, for example), not in shape (fat, or skinny fat) and usually broke. Nobody wants them, with a reason. I have a cousin who is exactly that - broke, without a job, skinny fat etc. No wonder why he is going MGTOW - he has given up. I tried to save him but he did not listen. Screw him (no..not you
![[Image: biggrin.gif]](https://rooshvforum.network/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
) .
Now, if those older guys happen to have money, they usually play the Provider Game, because most of them think that only money matters when chasing girls (half truth). And it is no wonder why they get cucked and/or divorce raped. Sometimes, the girls even commit Seppuku when they are unmasked...

...or kill the golden goo...errr...provider, to bail her bad boy lover.

Now, if your older competition (does not matter if they are 35 or 135) had money, good looks and at least some Game (and, fortunately, VERY FEW do)...you would get massacred. They can bring much more to the table compared to you (and most of us for that matter).
Can you compete, in a hypothetical scenario, anywhere, against for example, Roosh, who is 35+ (has looks and Game, probably good finances)?
Not yet, but you will get there.
Against George Clooney, who has money, good looks, Game and high status?
Not, but with little luck...hopefully.
Against Scott Adams, who has money, Game (I do not know about his looks)?
Hopefully.
Forget about "age gap". This is all feminist propaganda. The guys above (and many others, many of which are posters here - you probably know which ones) are proof that all you need to do is to be the best you can be -
be in shape, be charming and have your finances in order. You can do it. You know it, I know it and everyone knows it.
I hope I did not miss anything... .
