Cat ladies of the world unite. You have nothing to lose but your loneliness. There are a lot of good guys. Unfortunately many have become corrupted by pornography, misogyny, and a host of other social afflictions resulting from them projecting their lack of luck with the ladies on others.
If you catch one of these guys before they become a mass shooter or extremist you can possibly tame him. The thing you cannot do when you get into a relationship with him is give him too much of a hard time or too much confidence. Just the right balance of encouragement and discouragement will get you that long term friend. Preventing him from being influenced or corrupted by consumerism is very important. You yourself will have to restrict yourself from the mas consumption and trend following.
I say this because there are parallels with upgrading to the next shiny gadget and him upgrading to the next woman. If you practice a lifestyle of being satisfied with something that works and he also follows the same lifestyle, then he will not think to upgrade to the next model when the opportunity arises.
Consumerism, following trends, materialism, bad-credit, social-media and all that is associated with the aforementioned are your relationship’s enemy. You have to discipline yourself to get to your goal.
