Could you help me understand if my thinking is accurate regarding the dynamics of dating and relationships as discussed in the episodes These RELATIONSHIP EXPERTS Show You What to Look for In A Life Partner & Find HAPPINESS and Asking the Hard Questions, as well as Mastering Dating, Relationships, and The Self with Matthew Hussey #246 and Creating Connection? I feel that men have to work hard to gain social status and financial stability to attract women, while women are pursued regardless of their qualities.
