That's the truth it seems the only time a woman is Happy is when she has something to complain about. If she is with a guy that is perfect she has nothing to talk about when she gets together with her girl friends and they all complain about their guys and she feels left out.
A wise friend once told me two things...
"If you don't give her some drama she will create some for you" Most women want drama.
"No good deed goes unpunished, when dealing with women that you are attracted to." (Ok that's actually a paraphrase.) But it's true as soon as you start doing favors (unless they are Heroic in nature) it totally turns most women off and put you in the "Easy to manipulate" friend zone.
I actually used to be a dating coach at one time.
It's better then to stay single. Less trouble, less drama, more peace and freedom.
That's interesting, I agree with your points.
I think it comes down to balance, which of course is impossible without positive and negative elements. Drama is simply a way to rebalance. I don't think there is such a thing as a perfect guy though, or a perfect woman.
As you were once a dating coach, i'm sure you know the minds of women very well :)
