Yea; I had to skip all the other reasons to have relationships in order to specifically attack the reduced problem of the assumption of:
you plan to have children and you will probably be doing so like billions of humans have done so far in a monogamous relationship while married
There are certainly companionship values for having relationships that are worthwhile doing; but that’s not what this post was about.
I don’t think the plan to have children is simply about finding a suitable mate. It’s also about developing the skill set of being a good parent and having an enduring relationship that doesn’t break apart after a few years.
I don’t disagree with these points.
Can you clarify what you are suggesting by bringing them up?
I don’t see a large extend of skill building in the post but it mainly being about effective ways of evaluating suitable mates.
