It's very simple. Do you value the assets she's providing more than the assets you're providing? And if so, is the difference in value larger than you would get by eschewing a relationship?

It sounds like, in your case, a mini-relationship may be warranted, but be careful not to fall in the trap 3 months later (or whenever) where you begin valuing her for who she was rather than who she is.

Well said! Thanks!

The word relationship only means mutual reward.

Therefore a relationship can never be a bad investment.

The word relationship != agreement of mutual sexual exclusivity.

The word relationship != conventional bf / gf.

The word relationship != marriage.

The word relationship = mutual reward.

Rollo has a great comment on there about why relationships are such a pain in the ass:

Quote:Rollo Tomassi

Game is MORE necessary in a relationship than when you’re spinning plates. Most commonly men think that once a commitment has been established, at that point it’s OK to relax and “just be themselves.” Only later do they find that it was the things he was doing, the energy he was expressing, while seducing, gaming, sarging his GF / wife was exactly what caused her to fall in love with him. Take away that Alpha attitude, relax the competition anxiety, halt the anxious imaginations and replace them with gratuitous comfort, familiarity, regularity and mundane routine, and you will suffer the same fate as every other disillusioned divorcee.

The Game NEVER ends gentlemen. It shifts and evolves into new variations within a relationship, but it never ends. Your new ‘normal’, your “just being yourself” needs to be internalized Game. Things don’t get easier, you simply have to get better under new conditions.

You need to be even MORE on your toes to keep the same girl around who you've already banged a bunch of times, even when it is not going to be as interesting as getting some new pussy. Sounds like a horrible deal once you understand this dynamic.

Basically, the more of a history you have with someone, the easier it's going to be to find faults with them, remember things they've done to piss you off, or find a reason to just walk away. Girls might start to get "bored" of the same guy very easily, and guys are going to get pissed after a girl gets out of pocket one too many times. It's like a time bomb.

100% agree. That's why I've never gotten into a truly long relationship. It always seems like complacency after a while. That and I like to sample new flavors.
