^Unfortunately, a lot of women nowadays feel entitled to having those things, regardless of how they look.
A model would have the same demands as a woman who looks like Gollum.
They all think they are so special to the point where they think they DESERVE everything under the sun, and that a man should happily provide it for them.
Their attitudes are atrocious. Relationships with people should be give AND take. It doesn't work that way anymore. Many women expect to be pampered without returning the favor.
I've dated a lot of women who were incapable of saying "thank you" or showing any kind of manners or graciousness. If a girl can't thank me for drinks, then there is no way I can continue to date someone that doesn't show any kind of appreciation.
This can fall back on the parents that didn't instill good values in them when they were young. Others outgrow being polite and act like the world owes them something.
Looking at where the world is heading, I have a strong feeling it will only get worse from here.
Brilliant analysis. It's amazing how many ordinary looking women, or even the homely ones, have such an expectation of entitlement and are so ungrateful. I think it's Hollywood and the glamorization of beta-male romantic gestures that makes men think they have to accept this shit just for the chance to sniff a girl's panties.
My last gf had an expectation that I should be chasing her, supplicating to her, going out of my way with flowers, buying her gifts, etc., to the point where it just wasn't worth it anymore. She was pretty but not a fucking supermodel, she gave great head but otherwise was very average in bed (actually, 'below-average' is much more accurate- she would just sort of lie there), and it's not like we had a lot in common (she had typical middle-aged woman interests, like "Downton Abbey" and antiquing). Essentially, a 45 year-old woman going through "the change" who felt like she was the shit, and that all she had to do was show up. When we broke up I think she was stunned that someone would actually say this to her, and, as I suspect, that it might actually be true.
The woman I'm dating now is younger, less accomplished, lower social status (the previous gf was a big shot lawyer) but very appreciative of what I do for her, and she responds by going out of her way to be sweet to me and to show her appreciation. That is exactly how it should work.
