To paraphrase a great movie quote: “We got a little show and tell going on here. You don’t wanna show me nothing, but you’re telling me everything.” The numbers don’t lie and they tell us that the great majority of these types of relationships end badly. When it does, a lot of these chicks are so scorched from the experience that they go sprinting back to reality. Part of that process is jumping on the most stable guy they can find, who’ll pick up the pieces of their now fucked up life and (maybe most importantly for them) who won’t ask too many questions. Yeah, they’re looking for the dude who wanted to date them back before scorched-Earth, that they rejected to go wilding/get their numbers up. Simply: they’re prowling for a cuck. The great thing about social media is if you’re even slightly curious about some chick’s past, just go online. Since a big part of why chicks gravitate towards that kind of a relationship anyway is to get the approval of strangers, finding out is easy. No guy who has any self-respect would end up with a chick like that, so the more info you have the better for you. So actually seeing these types in public, although disappointing as it might be for you, is a gift (and a huge red flag) from God. Also, the clock is ticking faster for her type than it is for you. So time is definitely on your side.
