Avoid Long-Term Relationship Misery: Steer Clear of Misaligned Life Goals

Chase Amante's picture
long-term relationship life goalsIf you’d prefer a relationship where you and your woman are not at one another’s throats (or walking out the door), build one with where life goals align.

Something few people discuss, because few people think long-term anymore, is the utter vitality of aligned life goals in selecting a long-term relationship partner.

(17th Century lovers were actually much better at this; you can find copious letters written by lovers discussing their hopes, dreams, and plans for their future together in detail)

Men online will talk about the importance of finding a ‘submissive’ woman. The implication superficially seems to be that you should look for a woman who will just go along with whatever you want. Of course, the question there is if she will go along with whatever YOU want, who’s to say she won’t go along with whatever anyone else wants too (including, for instance, the deliveryman or handyman who stops by while you’re at work and who’d very much like to cuckold you with her)?

The unspecified part of this whole “find a girl who’s submissive” advice – the part the men saying this intend but don’t usually know how to say – is that you want a woman who wants what YOU want, who finds your vision compelling, who is willing to submit to your leadership because she believes you will lead her where she wants to go.

The alternative to this – the uppity, rebellious woman whose life goals are in full opposition to yours – will provide you endless headaches, a far less stable relationship, and a greater chance of the relationship falling apart – or of you even getting pulled off your life goals.

Of course, if you do what a lot of folks do, and enter a relationship with whoever you like based on your initial compatibilities, it’s a roll of the dice whether you’ve chanced upon a woman with aligned life goals – or one with very, very DIFFERENT ones.

If you don’t want to be a gambler, and instead want to maximize the odds of a harmonious relationship without needless wars on life direction, then read on to know what to screen for – and how.

Tactics Tuesdays: The Nonplussed Romantic Breakup

Chase Amante's picture
seductive breakupMost men during breakups plead, rage, or act like rocks. None of these are ideal though. Instead, you want to seduce her on the way out – with the Nonplussed Romantic Breakup Attitude.

Over the years I have seen a lot of men respond to breakups a lot of different ways:

  • Begging women to stay

  • Pledging they will change

  • Declaring “You need me!”

  • Asking to “Make it work”

  • Indignation (“Ungrateful!”)

  • Defiance (“Who needs you!”)

One thing I very, very rarely see is the man who is completely nonplussed…

The man who doesn’t beg, plead, pledge, ask, declare, or respond with indignation or defiance.

He neither belittles the woman nor prostrates himself before her.

Instead, he remains calm, understanding, gracious, yet without emotion – he still shows some sadness and care. Just not an outpouring of it. He handles the breakup with masculine aplomb.

Perhaps it is because this reaction is so rare, but this Nonplussed Romantic Breakup Attitude is the single biggest way to ensure that you remain stuck deep within a woman’s mind post-breakup, leading to positive feelings on her end, and a whole lot of chasing from her to get you back before you even expect it.

It is how you seduce her on your way out, just as you did on the way in.

Yes: Like Other Animals, Human Females Have Mating Seasons Too

Chase Amante's picture
the human mating cycleHumans have mating seasons – and if you catch a woman at the right (or wrong) time, it dramatically influences your romantic outcomes with her.

Today I’d like to shock you a bit and introduce you to a concept that I’ve been aware of for a good long while but that, in my experience, most men are completely unaware of.

It’s discussed in the scientific community, but not in these terms. In fact, the framing I’ll put on it today will be both startling and (I presume) enlightening.

For all the progress we’ve had in understanding man’s connection to animals since the time of Darwin, we still tend to think of humans as somehow ‘apart’ from other species. This includes how we think about mating seasons; i.e., that humans don’t have them. We just mate whenever.

As I will show you in this article, this is very wrong.

Human beings do have mating seasons, and as in other animals this is determined by female biology.

Seduction Failures: Girl Problem or Skill Issue?

Chase Amante's picture
girl problem or skill issue?If you’re stumbling in a seduction, is it because of the girl, or because of your skill? To figure out which, we need to establish the pattern – if there is one at all.

Commenting on my article “Always Be Closing (in Seduction, with Girls)”, Walter writes

Usually,when it comes to sex, I am really aggressive and yet I have often failed to close as you speak even though I was fooling around with women that I had just met when we were in a bed room for instance even though she suggested it too.

The first thing I’ll say here is while my advice is to move faster with women and yes, always be closing, it is also to be highly responsive and as well-calibrated as you can be in your moves with women. You can close a certain portion of girls simply by being really aggressive, but you will also blow a lot of girls out entirely.

The reason for that is it is very important for a woman in a seduction to feel that she is special to you and that you are listening to her, responding to her, and looking out for her. If at any point she stops feeling this way, trust is lost, and her legs slam shut (often never to be opened).

I don’t have a full picture of Walter’s typical escalation to sex so I don’t want to speculate too much on what he is doing here. But I use this comment to lead into this article’s subject: when a seduction fails, how do you tell whether the problem is a ‘girl problem’ or a ‘skill issue’?

Always Be Closing (in Seduction, with Girls)

Chase Amante's picture
always be closingA ladies man who wants consistent romantic success adheres to one maxim: ALWAYS BE CLOSING. Because the man who can’t close is a man who can’t win.

As a tire salesman in my late teens, it took me a while to fully cement the lesson that I needed to always be closing. Even though in sales it is crystal clear that your whole object is to move the prospect into becoming a customer, I still felt gun-shy asking for the close much of the time. If the prospect wasn’t showing enough readiness, I might avoid trying to close at all. I did not want to be pushy.

Yet by the time I had a year of sales experience under my belt, I’d left behind my hesitancy to close. In the summer of 2003, as a then-intermediate salesman, I fully embraced the ‘Always Be Closing’ philosophy – and I turned myself into a resistless sales closing machine.

Singlehandedly, during my return to sales from a semester away at school, I lifted an underperforming store that hadn’t hit its sales quota in eight months into a winner. I sold so hard to everyone who walked in that door that I pushed us well past our July quota. If someone came in to get a flat tire fixed, and that person’s tires looked like they could use changing, he or she’d be leaving with a set of four brand new tires, or I didn’t know how to sell. The boss hadn’t thought that year’s exaggerated sales quotas were achievable for any month, but I handily beat them in July.

When I left the store to return to school the next month, mid-August, I made clear to the boss that I was leaving the store hundreds of sales ahead of where we should have been at that point in the month to reach that month’s quota. It was the rest of the sales team’s over-quota status to keep (or forfeit). Somehow, in my absence, the remaining sales staff sold so abysmally that despite the generous sales cushion I left, they nevertheless missed quota without me. That’s the difference a single closer on the team can make – versus an army of lily-livered non-closers.

You’d think I might have taken that same lesson to always be closing with me when I dove into seduction a few years later. For some reason, I didn’t. Instead, I had to learn the exact same lesson all over again the hard way with girls.

This article is for anyone who, like that young and naïve me, has yet to realize the importance of maintaining an unshakeable eye on the prize; an unbending, resistless drive to push ever forward toward the close – whether with sales prospects or romantic ones (though our focus in this article, given the nature of this website, will be on the romantic ones).

Recommended Reading 2024

Chase Amante's picture
Chase Amante's recommended reading list, 2024Chase’s sexennial reading list for 2024 is out. Book recommendations on seduction, history, society, business, economics, fiction, survival, & more.

It’s been six years since my last Recommended Reading list, which itself was six years after my first. So I suppose that means it’s time for me to write another!

There are some folks out there who read voluminously, digesting 30+ books per year. Unfortunately that is not me. It may have been in my youth (I was constantly reading in grade school and high school) but with as much time as I spend managing the business and doing my own writing I don’t have as much time to spare on reading nowadays.

The result however is that I must be very picky about what I read. Books that come highly recommended by others but that fail to hook me in in fast enough or provide enough obvious value for my time – such as the fiction novel Chronicles of the Black Company, the polemic Deliberate Dumbing Down of America, Jack Welch’s corporate bible Winning, or the business management book The Essential Deming – I quickly discard. The list below is a list of survivors; these are the books I found valuable enough to keep reading, and include now on this list.

If you like my recommendations, and you want to read more books I recommend, I suggest you check out my prior lists: here’s my first list, from 2012; here is my second list, including many recommendations drawn from Lubbock’s list, in 2018. I still like these books; some of them I still reread.

I’ve broken the list below down into seven (7) categories: survival, seduction, history and society, economics, business, fiction, and miscellaneous. If you have a certain category you’re looking for, or certain categories you’re simply uninterested in, you skip to or skip those categories and go to the ones you like.

Lastly, the links include Amazon affiliate links. If you want to buy the books but have some moral stricture against buying from an Amazon affiliate link, just type the name of the book + the author into your preferred book buying website and you should find the same work without issue. Also worth noting that many of the older books on this list that are out of copyright are available for free via Library Genesis.

2 Kinds of High Partner Count Women: Low SMV vs. High T

Chase Amante's picture
2 different reasons women sleep with a lot of guysThere are two (2) very different kinds of high body count women: those who willingly pursue many lovers, versus those who fail into it.

Discussions of women with high partner counts are often marred (especially in the dating advice space) between a conflict over the two (2) different kinds of high partner count women.

These two (VERY different) types of High Count women are:

  1. Low sexual market value (SMV) women VS.

  1. High testosterone (T) women

Depending on a man’s sexual experience and predilections, he may wish to reject both of these women – or he may want to reject one but not the other. Of course, if he does not realize the difference, he’ll have trouble differentiating.

If he tries talking to other men who are thinking of the other kind of high body count girl than the kind he’s thinking of, they’ll talk right past each other.

Let’s clear up these two very different kinds of multi-lover women.

49 Early Warning Signs a Woman Is Going to Cheat on You

Chase Amante's picture
early warning signs she'll be unfaithfulA cheater doesn’t cheat out of nowhere. She leaves clues, hints, and signs – some of them quite obvious. These 49 signs tell you she may soon cheat on you.

Recently on our forum, Ambiance, one of our more experienced members, was blindsided when his live-in girlfriend (who was a virgin when they got together) cheated on him with another man.

In his post, “I Got Cheated on Out of Nowhere,” Ambiance shared his shock at how even this girl, who had shown him nothing but ‘green flags’, could cheat. It made him wonder whether any relationship could ever be safe.

I am just mind-boggled. Why in the M***********G HELL would this girl who has been otherwise SO GOOD to me and who seemed SO IN LOVE with me throw it all away over some guy she wasn't even in love with when she knew him growing up?? I have been such a good, strong boyfriend to her and she seemed madly in love with me all this time. Not to mention this Guy C is an oafish looking nice guy without any guile.

I had fallen so in-love with her. In a world where Western women are becoming increasingly less suited for long term relationships, I thought I had hit the absolute jackpot and then done everything right. I was the baddest, sexiest guy she had ever met who conquered her and stole her right under Guy B's nose and spent the next 10 months ravishing her in mind and body. How could she have been [so] stupid?! How could I have attached myself to someone so deficient??? How could such an otherwise incredible girl with everything going for her be so screwed up in the head???

This is a waking nightmare. I feel like what remaining innocence I had so carefully protected has been f*****g obliterated.

Yet as other forum members and I pointed out, this perfect-seeming girl had some blatant red flags for infidelity risk early on that Ambiance had not noticed.

In this article, I’ll be sharing with you a complete list of ‘infidelity risk factors’ in women – potential cheater ‘red flags’ – you should look for from the very START of a relationship (or, ideally, before you even jump into bed with her). Watch out for these signs a woman is going to cheat, and you’ll be much better prepared to avoid getting hurt.

If you’re a man who desires as LITTLE a chance of a woman cheating on him as possible, this article will be Gospel to you.

Howdy there folks.

I’ve got a new interview up on YouTube with @FrenchOG3 of X.com. Check him out and give him a follow if you’re on X. One of the few good game tips guys on that platform, I’ve found!

In this interview, French OG interviews me on a sprawling range of topics. The actual interview spans over two hours (and I think we actually spoke for closer to 3.5 if you include the chats before & after the interview), and covers a huge range of stuff.

Much of it will probably be familiar to you if you’re a regular Girls Chase reader. We covered a few new odds & ends though too.
