What are the universal minimum standards for a gf/wife? At what point does a woman simply not provide value to a relationship? Is there some kind of universal cost-benefit analysis you can apply?

>Is there some kind of universal cost-benefit analysis you can apply?
Yes, it's pretty easy to compute.

For a wife, multiply the cost of masturbating by the number of times you would otherwise expect to masturbate over the course of your life without the wife and take 3/4 of that number, then subtract from that 1/4 of the money you expect to make over the course of your life (~50% divorce rate, you lose half in a divorce) and that's the expected value of a wife.

For a gf the expected value is simpler, it's the cost of masturbating times the number of times you would otherwise expect to masturbate over the expected period of the relationship if you didn't have the gf.

There are different archetypes. There are ones that won't help you practically at all, but will have crazy sex with you. I'd have that one.
Then there are ones that will cook, clean and actually make your life a lot easier in many ways, but they will be boring otherwise. I'd have that too.

Engaging with women romantically is not something you do to create a net benefit in your life. It's a luxury that you engage in because you have enough material and emotional resources to deal with the downsides. The feeling that you will gain a better life by dealing with women is your biology encouraging you to reproduce, which it is designed to do.

Faithfulness and respect.

Jim Croce’s song Lover’s Cross had a line that explained it pretty well.
>But for every time that we spent laughing

Once the bad days outnumber the good, she’s gotta go.

>Is there some kind of universal cost-benefit analysis you can apply?
No.

This anon >>34496817 explains it well. I agree.

IMO, it goes like this:
>What are the universal minimum standards for a gf/wife?
Fidelity, understanding, mutual respect. I'd say that for any relationship it is also ideal that you're both compatible in terms of ideals.
I don't see a relationship where one wishes to engage in polygamy and one doesn't, or one is in favor of abortion and the other isn't to last, for example.

>At what point does a woman simply not provide value to a relationship?
If the person you're with is only making your life worse, I don't see a point in keeping them around in your life, if it is not something that can be talked and fixed.
However, husband and wife are sworn to stick together during good or bad times, so they ideally need to talk and try to fix things between them,
Only if all attempts at repairing things fails I think it's best if both divorce.

>Is there some kind of universal cost-benefit analysis you can apply?
Not really, I don't think. You just have to feel it yourself if the relationship is worth it or not.

they love you, they offer comparative advantage, and they are helpful. Very clear cut and dry

and some would be willing to compromise on that

Women are supposed to drain you but not in a bad way

Yeah that's because good looking young white women want good looking young white men

idk she should be a net positive and enriching experience, a gift a present from God for Adam.
she must be me, but a female version. thats what id take.
because anything else, she will be a (massive) drag. she must be fast in the head, no drama bullshit, move silently and gracefully like a cat, not doing much noise, aka loving peace and serenity. sure there are times for advanced discussion sessions. sexually atractive, loving the sparkling erotica in the air, long playful and sensual sessions, ready to fuck at anytime and anyplace of the day, infact on her guard too, i might just ambush her and hold her down. also she must know about God and ready to explore all sorts of alchemy and magic(k) with me. and physicly fit like me and wanting kids atleast someday plus geneticly pure aka parents+grandparents from the same country and unvax´d. just like me.
also probably a sun pisces and moon aquarius or vise versa if we ought to connect really deeper and establish telepathical connections, build an epitaph to meet up in the afterlife (have even astralic sex if i could do OOB experiences, but i cant :( )
too bad im a broke fag and dont intend to wage slave away and just sleep all day and lift and carpe diem
