I know I could never get someone who's the perfect type for me because there are ten other guys trying to manipulate her. This leaves me feeling sidelined and frustrated, and I worry that without being manipulative, I won't stand a chance at finding someone deserving of love and respect. How can I approach dating in a more authentic way while avoiding manipulative tactics?
I'm frustrated by the manipulative dynamics I see in dating. My girlfriend had a conversation with a guy who was flirting with her and trying to manipulate her by sending pictures, implying that he missed her and it would be better if she was with him. It feels like a game, and I don't want to engage in that.
I've also talked to a girlfriend who has been in five relationships, and in each one, the guy changed after around two months, showing his true self. It seems like she got manipulated five times. All around me, I see guys manipulating beautiful women and treating them poorly afterwards.
