TELL ME I'M WRONG - DON'T BE THAT GUY

When a Woman Says “Let’s See Where This Goes,” You’re Already Wasting Your Time

She won’t say yes. She won’t say no. She’ll just keep you circling.

Because she doesn’t want you to walk away. But she also doesn’t want to commit.

And if you’re not careful? You’ll waste the most expensive resource a man has: Time.

Let’s break it down:

---

1. Dating Is Not Free When You’re a Man

Dinner. Drinks. Uber rides. Birthday surprises. Even a "simple date" isn’t simple when you're the one paying.

Add 2 hours planning the date. 2 more hours driving, talking, watching her eat while she talks about "just vibing."

Now you're out 10 hours and almost a grand. All while she’s still "getting to know you."

That’s not dating. That’s an unpaid audition.

---

2. Women Say “Let’s See Where This Goes” to Delay Accountability

They want your effort. Your attention. Your investment.

But not your expectations.

She’ll play coy. Act like she’s unsure. Tell you she "needs time."

But in truth? She knows you’re not the one. She just doesn’t want to lose the perks.

So you get strung along. And she gets:

Free dinners

Free therapy

Free male attention

Free gifts

While you're being taxed for a title you don't even own.

---

3. Your Time Is a Monetized Asset

Every hour you spend texting her? Is an hour you could be mastering your craft.

Every weekend you spend entertaining her? Is a weekend your competition is working.

Modern dating isn’t just emotionally expensive. It’s financially devastating.

Because you’re not just paying in dollars. You’re paying in hours. In headspace. In momentum.

---

4. Big Investments with No Commitment Is Bad Business

Some men go all in. Pay her rent. Buy her a car. Drop R20,000 on a ring.

Just to "show her you care."

Meanwhile, she’s still saying: "Let’s see where this goes."

Let me help you out: If she doesn’t know where it’s going, it’s not going anywhere.

---
5. The Sunk Cost Trap Will Keep You Begging

You’ve spent money. Time. Emotion.

Now you’re stuck trying to "make it work" because of what you've already poured in.

But that’s not love. That’s fear of loss.

You’re chasing return on an investment that was never mutual to begin with.

And she knows it.

So she keeps smiling. Saying "I’m just not ready yet."

While collecting every benefit of a man you should’ve saved for a wife.

---

6. Stop Applying for a Role She Has No Intention to Fill

She wants the perks of a relationship. Without the responsibilities.

And you? You're auditioning for a position she won’t even name.

You deserve clarity. You deserve direction. You deserve a return on your energy.

If she can’t commit? Walk.

You’re not a placeholder. You’re a man.

---

7. When a Woman Is Serious, You’ll Know It Instantly

There will be no games. No delays. No emotional gymnastics.

She’ll match your energy. Mirror your effort.

And most importantly? She’ll name what she wants.

Because real women don’t waste time. They build.

---

Final Word:

Modern dating is expensive for men. And the cost isn’t just financial.

It’s the lost hours. The dead-end conversations. The energy you could’ve invested in building your legacy.

So next time a woman says, "Let’s just see where this goes"—

Tell her you know exactly where it’s going:

Nowhere.

And walk away.

Because kings don’t wait for someone else to define the destination. They set the course.

1) Cut our association with Palestine and Iran, stay out of middle east business, it's a toxic relationship and its costing us. Palestine will drag anyone associated with it down with them.

Think of it. This little country, that has ZERO value to the world is happy to see other countries divided, to fight their cause, and not think a darn thing about it, just because they won't take a deal.

A deal that will end war TODAY...but we all know, the end of war means the end of billions of dollars into Hamas bank accounts.

No, thats not South Africas problem and the ANC simply doesn't care about the man on the street, the industries, that be directly affected, the tarrif hikes now seen.

Why? To support terrorists.????? C'MON MAN!

2) Tighter immigration laws.

We can have every African neighbor feel SA is there haven because they too lazy to sort out their own crap in their country.

3) The ANC is the national problem, the cancer🙄

All the above are not rocket science

"The National Dialogue is an opportunity to mobilise South Africans to address these challenges and restore our country to the path of transformation, development and progress.

It is an opportunity to build on the achievements of the last three decades by defining a shared vision and a common programme to take the country forward."

MITCHELL'S PLAIN DAD....

Take care of yourself , eat better , work out , stop drinking , stop smoking , stay sober (or drink less) , your kids need the best version of you.

And they need you for as long as they can have you.

No offense, but if you're 100kgs + , a smoker and drinker, and clearly obese.

REMEMBER THIS:
You're robbing yourself at least 20 yrs of life.

This goes for speeding too, no driver DEAD TODAY, believed they would ever get into an accident, they ALL believed their driving skills was that of an F1 driver, invincible.... You can get away with speeding and recless driving 1000 times, 5,10,20yrs.... it take just 1 time to kids your life good bye.

Take care of yourself.

MPA PRIDE | I HOPE THE CLOCK IS TICKING FOR A CAPE FLATS BORN FUTURE MISS SA🇿🇦

Pearl Jansen from Cape Town was our 1st Coloured beauty queen to represent us globally.

Due to apartheid, she was not allowed to go to Miss World alone & she had to be called “Miss Africa South” whilst another non coloured model went as “Miss South Africa”.

She was only 20 & she got placed as 1st-runner up /2nd at Miss World 1970.

Awkwardly, the non coloured Miss South Africa came 5th & gets the acknowledgment from Miss SA whilst Pearl doesn’t.

So much for   cos clearly it doesn't.  We're doing a great job in whipping our race out🤷‍♂️
