Being married doesn't make you an authority on dating
Whenever we debate dating mechanics here, some guys love to drop comments like "as a happily married man, ……" as if that automatically validates their point.
Here’s the reality: being married doesn’t mean you understand dating.
The only thing that proves you’re actually successful and therefore insightful
when it comes to male dating dynamics is how many attractive women genuinely desire you and want to date you. Marriage guarantees none of that.
In fact, most married men I know are completely clueless about how modern dating actually works. That ignorance is a big reason why divorce rates are so high and overwhelmingly initiated by women, often while the husband thinks everything is going totally fine.
Being married just means you convinced one person to settle down with you at one point in time. It doesn't make you a dating guru.
