Dating teaches various life lessons. It's key to keep an open mind for personal growth and to navigate complex relationships. Question from forum: "What's the toughest lesson a woman taught you?". Top answers:

SHE WILL MAKE TIME FOR YOU

“If she wants to hang out with you, she will make time for you.”

DON’T GET INTO A RELATIONSHIP JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE LONELY

“Don’t get into a relationship just because you’re lonely. You quickly learn that being alone is way better than being with someone who annoys the hell out of you.”

MY MOTHER WAS FLAWED

"My wife showed me my mother's flaws at 39, causing me to reevaluate my past. She illustrated I was neglected by someone I thought incapable."

SHE IS NOT WHO YOU WANT TO BE

“That she is who she is and not who you want her to be.”

PARENTS DON’T HAVE YOUR BEST INTEREST AT HEART

“Your parents do not always know best or have your best interests at heart.”

FEELINGS FOR SOMEONE FADE EVENTUALLY

"Your infatuation reflects more what your mind desires than her real identity. Feelings fade; they're an emotional high, an illusion your mind creates. Love is built, not found."

EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE EVERYTHING SHE WANTS, SHE MIGHT NOT LIKE YOU

"Even being her ideal partner, she might reject you. She said, 'You're everything I want in a boyfriend, but I don't want to date you.' The pain was unexpected."

MOVE ON

“No matter how hard you try, some things just don’t work out. Dust yourself off and move on.”

SHE WILL TAKE TO YOU IF SHE PRIORITIZE IT

"If she's interested, she'll answer your call/text promptly. Though there are exceptions, she won’t keep you waiting if she truly wants to converse with you."

IT ISN’T REAL

“Unconditional love ain’t real.”

I AM BETTER OFF SINGLE

"I'm better off single. Plenty of great women, but I either don't meet them, or they're taken. Past experiences taught me to stay single."

YOU CAN’T KEEP THEM 100% HAPPY

“You can't keep them 100% happy, aim instead for 90%. They appreciate a fit body but dislike your gym time, want a richer you but hate late work hours or trips, can't choose a restaurant but criticize yours, promise things without meaning, and gaslight you when confronted."

SHE WILL NOT HESITATE TO JUSTIFY TREATING YOU BAD

"Even if she loves you, she might justify treating you badly in a breakup, believing you deserve it for her own reasons."

THEY SHARE EVERYTHING WITH THEIR FRIENDS

“They talk a lot about almost everything to their friends. So, be careful with what you’re disclosing. It may paint you in a good light or a terrible one.”
