I went to a few social events yesterday, all with a variety of couples and singletons and just wanted to put forth some observations about the differences in the women who were coupled with (seemingly) HVM vs LVM. The women married to HVM: -were relaxed and clearly had taken time to doll themselves up -drank and ate freely -got to catch up with friends without being interrupted -were brought plates of food and drink refills by their spouses -didn't chase their kids around constantly or had hired a babysitter and left the kids at home -were shown physical affection (in a non-gross PDA way) by their spouses -weren't constantly barking at their spouses to do basic shit -got into no arguments, and worked through basic logistics in a calm way with their spouses, as a team The women married to LVM: -clearly had no time to gussy up or preen prior to coming, even though everyone knew lots of photos would be taken at these events -were constantly having to ask their spouses to do basic stuff -were the only ones paying any attention to their kids -never had their spouse check in to see how they were doing -usually arrived alone well before their spouses, with kids in tow which means they had to pack, transport, unpack the kids all by themselves -had other single women pity-offering to do things like fix a plate or grab a refill since the spouse was AWOL -were embarrassed by their LVM's very obvious eye-rolling and huffing whenever they were asked to do something -were on-edge and anxious -much sooner delegated stuff to their female friends rather than their spouse/father of their children P.S. I couldn't take it at one point and I snapped at one of the LVM spouses to get his attention (rude, I know, but he was pissing me off) to his 8 MONTHS PREGNANT WIFE who hadn't eaten all day and can barely walk then said with my whole chest "Your wife is hungry. Fix her a plate." He looked scurred and starting asking her what she wanted and how much. Being around couples is just so educational. Watch and learn ladies, watch and learn. Would love to hear from y'all about direct experiences observing HVM and LVM spouses in action.

Oh yes, all accurate observations. I have spent my entire career in a heavily public facing position and can profile like an FBI agent. The number of true HVM’s I’ve known personally I can count on one hand.
You know all those men that you see as HVM? They may act that way in public but you don’t know what they’re like behind closed doors. Most UMC men behave like you say HVM behave when in public but at home they could have been directly what their wife was going to wear. They could have insulted her outfit and told her to change, they could be cheating. You can ALWAYS spot a LVM when they’re engaging in low-value behaviour but there are devious LVM who know how to be polite in public and win over an audience. I guarantee you that some of your friend’s idyllic marriages are not as they seem and that there are low-value things happening in the background. My two straight brothers are completely high value in public like this. They cook, clean, take care of their wives and kids, have good careers are good provider/protectors but they both surely watch porn and one of them gambles online. He hasn’t lost the family fortune…..YET.
Oh god, that's grim. Let me know when your webstore is up though, I want a 'Your wife is hungry, fix her a plate!" Tshirt before Christmas.
I'll never forget picking up a coworker and seeing her living situation and her bf for the first time. We couldn't leave because her toddler was tearing shit up, getting into things, crying and clawing at her. Bf was just laying there watching tv blissfully, knowing that his girlfriend, the breadwinner, is trying to go to damn work. I raised my voice a little because it was so disrespectful and annoying, we're running late, he's also wasting my time "Your son is playing in cat litter" and I glared at him. Then he scurried up and picked the baby up. She was begging him to watch the kid before that, so he didn't do anything until the stranger giving his gf a ride said something. The whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth. She did get away from him soon after that so at least there's a happy ending lol
Good on you for yelling at that useless scrote. It always hurts my heart to see pregnant woman suffering under LVM and NVM like that.
I haven't seen a good relationship. All I see is the latter.
It's so much easier to be single than have a "spouse" like those LVMs.
