This is sound advice, but this can be difficult when you're in the same circles, e.g you go to the same mass
I am the person who said that, not the other ones below.
Anyway, my response is , yes that makes it harder. But you have to try your best.
Mixed company is not a good thing generally.
In Catholic societies for 2000 years, men hung out with men, and women with women.
But try suggesting that to your modern trad, and they think you have two heads.
So in that case, lean on your male friends. Hang out with them as much as possible. Honestly I also thing making friends with older men is also a good thing, because you benefit from their stability and life experience. One of my best friends is twenty years older than me.
I mean you have to be selective, even with your male friends. If they keep wanting to drag you into mixed company settings try to pull them out of it, and if they wont listen, dont be their friends.
Get some focus in your life.
Because, I know I am total hypocrite when I say this, but it is a waste of time talking to single women until you feel totally confident to start a family. You really should try to avoid "drifting" into a marriage.
Because that give the upper hand to the woman, who can smell you are not ready. And she will exploit that. Trust me, this is experience speaking.
What all us men have to absolutely beat into our brains is that women from the age of 14 are on a totally different timeline to us. Everything in them screams I want babies. But men want peace and stability. So in our society which does not support men setting themselves up as patriarchical leaders, we need WAY more time to do that. Like 10-20 years more depending on your particular situation.
But women are INCAPABLE of understanding this.
Look at all the idiot boomer women on this site alone. These are traditional women, who are well over 50, who should be wise matriarchal, understanding figures, and they say the most stupidest things ever against this. Their husbands have let them down. They're just women at the end of the day. But its absolutely maddening at the same time.
So bottom line is , trad brothers, we each have to carve our own lives, make our own path in this world of apostasy. If this involves a woman helping us in producing the next generation in a stable way, that's great. If not, it is the will of God. End of story.
