When I imply higher SMV women, I don't just take into account looks, though that may be subjective. It's like how a Ferrari comes with it's own set of downsides, expensive repairs aka high maintenance, same with attractive women. I prefer to settle for a Mercedes instead, less maintenance and headache, and still attractive.

Though, I will meet you halfway and say, oftentimes hot women are approached LESS often than average women, because most men pussy out and presume rejection. HOWEVER, that same hot woman has been living in privilege from elementary school, I'm sure during her childhood the boys would bring her gifts during recess time, and all the way through adulthood she was given free handouts, allowed to skip lines, given the princess treatment, moved up female social hierarchies, not through anything of her doing, just simply because of her good looks.

To me, women need to WORK for you in order to gain ultimate attraction. If you are easy to get, she doesn't have to jump through any hoops, why would she choose you instead of Chad Tyroneson? Therefore, I think a woman's value is partially through looks, the other half is what does she bring YOU. Does she go out of her way to bring peace to your life, is she feminine FBI as Kevin Samuels said (Feminine, Beutiful, Inspirational), is she agreeable, able to cook or clean your things with little to no training, able to pair bond, doesn't have an overly promiscuous past (less mileage the better like a car), has a strong father figure and good relationship with him, all these "green flags" to me dictate a woman's value, not simply the looks.

There's a Russian proverb "greet her because of her looks, say goodbye to her because of her mind" - it makes more sense in Russian, but nonetheless the culture my parents came from is much more RP than this blue pill Western bull shit y'all are conditioned into. You guys set standards lower than Joe Biden's intelligence and then get surprised when the divorce rates are 50%.

My last plate was a 8.5 or 9 physically very attractive, very submissive and had high desire for me, problem was I sniffed out many red flags from the get-go.

As per TRP, I never bring up relationship dynamics/ where do we stand, I let the woman do this. Within a couple weeks she was hinting for commitment.

Despite her looks and desire, I couldn't bring myself to overinvest in a slut, maybe other guys can, I'm busy asf working 3 jobs, I'd only bring a woman into my life if she can add value, not chaos.

This one had a mark on her ass the first time we fucked (prior to me), goes out to play volleyball till 2 am (I kid you not she sent vids with timestamps- it was a party thing with males and females weekly), she was too sexually experienced, went out to clubs semi-frequently, talked about her ex who after failed attempts to get back she tried to get with his best friend, drank and smoked excessively, I saw messages from her orbiters she kept teasing.

Now she did have positive attributes, which I won't even mention because it would make it look like I have one-itis, but, her cons outweighed the pros imo. I eventually distanced myself, less attention, she kept wanting calls, texts, dates.

Which I partially did not understand, she truly was attracted to me, even found out a couple of my side-hustles and tried to visit me there drove far asf. But she had male orbiters, why didn't she go for some weak beta who gives he more attention?

Eventually, that's what she did. Saw her with some short Jewish looking guy (I presume is the ex's friend she kept talking about since she said he's Jewish), I'm not much taller, but def. more chiseled and she for sure downgraded in search for fuller commitment.

In the end, I'm stuck re-evaluating my steps, I could've caved in a little bit, but this girl was so tarnished, it's like the age old saying it takes a village to raise a child, so it must take much more to change a formed adult, is that even worth it? I assumed not.
