It’s a win relative to what they had before. There is a reason many stay hooked on these sites for years. They keep complaining they can’t meet decent people online yet continue with it. It’s an ego boost having 50 guys message you every week, many of them being above your league.
She just means that while the extra attention from online dating might be good, the woman probably just doesn’t want what the lower guys have to offer, since banging many guys (especially inferior ones) will lower her value.
Value is what someone is willing to pay. It only matters what the man thinks (I’m not endorsing that view, but its true in the eyes of the 90+% that believe it).
There are evolutionary reasons why men feel that way. Before the modern invention of DNA testing there was no way to truly be sure the child such a woman was carrying was yours. So naturally men evolved to be skeptical of loose women (we love them as a concept, just would never commit to one). Considering that some credible studies recently suggest that at least 5% of modern husbands have been cuckolded I think this is a pretty legitimate concern. We also know that women who have been with lots of partners before marriage are more llikely to cheat on their husbands.
IMO if you have to think that way, you don’t really like either woman a or woman b. Otherwise it wouldn’t feel like an effort you are willing to put in, but rather the only thing you want to do.
Maybe those women believe that “you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince” . Once they find their prince, they stop kissing other frogs, no??
