Ok bro let me give you my take as an older guy with a different worldview. It sounds like you're looking for perfection in an imperfect world. You stated you wanted to raise your SMV. By all means, continue down that path. This is good for you. It's not going to change your results.

You're going to have to do some self reflection. For example I have usually attracted submissive women that are quite needy. It's because I took up a strong and competent role. I did it all myself because self reliance feels "safe" for me. Well in return I was not in relationships where I could get what I want. I was relying on myself and she was relying on me.

Do some digging and find out what about you is attracting these qualities you don't like. Putting on muscle will make you more muscular with the same problems. This isn't related to SMV.

Now, mentally unstable, or alcoholics are a very large red flag and are easier to spot. But some of this you have to put into perspective.

For example does a woman who believes in alchemy, really cause you harm? Does a woman who likes tarot deserve to be dumped because of it?

I had a girlfriend that believed in reiki. It didn't hurt me so it was just one of those things I would roll my eyes at when she wasn't looking. It's a small price of admission. Trust me when I say that you can be so picky that all relationships become short term and transactional. I've been there and it sucks.

Everyone has quirks and strange worldviews. These imperfections are what makes them unique and beautiful. If you find a girl that is straight laced and a perfect tradcon wife, you're going to be very bored very quick. Normal is boring.

Hey all, I'm try to keep this as short as possible. For the past year it appears, I've been dealing with females who are moderately attractive (usually high 6s - high 7s, rarely low 8s) yet so weird that there looks don't make up for the bizarre behavior. I just ceased communication with one who admitted she's immature, complaining, disagreeable over a week ago and just found out the 1 I'm talking to is an alchemist.

For comparison, I'm nowhere as weird as the examples so it's not simply a case of like attracting like. I've self reflected and concluded that I am attracting these females because I'm punching above my weight class in the sexual market. Because of this, for the most part, when I do score the only females with the purely superficial SMV I'm going for who are receptive are those who for whatever reason can't get a man in their respective class. These include the whores, the mental unstable, & the weirdos. Luckily I haven't had any (known) recent interactions with the crazy ones and the whores aren't going to make me seek advice. When I interact with less attractive women I never experience bizarre behavior.

I know the only way to permanently fix this issue is to obviously raise my smv & I will focus on that once I get through this final difficult leg in my med school program (this has been a trying experience these few years) but, until then, could anyone give me advice on how to quickly surmise something is amiss? Please be mindful that, in my experience, the more attractive these females weirdos are, the more effort they put into hiding it. The one I cut off didn't start revealing how odd she was until months after meeting, when she felt comfortable. The attractive weirdos I've been dealing with either express beliefs severely incompatible with reality (such as the alchemist), have significant issues with human communication and interaction beyond surface level (to the point that society would easily toss around the autistic label if they were men) or both. I really feel irritated because this is time I cannot get back and would like to be more efficient with how I spend it. Thanks in advance

Side question: do any of you believe that gaining 15-20 pounds of muscle within 6-7 months is feasible as a vegetarian?

I highly doubt it.

Besides, we're meant to eat meat.

[the main question]

I doubt this issue has much to do with you or your SMV.

Really, the best you can do is act as non-judgmental as possible so that they're comfortable sharing shit as soon as possible.

For example, if you two are watching the news together and there's a report of some black magic witchcraft practicing heathens sacrificing neighborhood kids, resist the urge to say "what a bunch of retarded freaks".

Milder, less silly example: if someone mentions horoscopes or astrology, resist the urge to roll your eyes and/or say "what a crock of shit!"

You're probably acting more judgmental around them than you realize.

And for the sake of other guys who encounter them in the future, don't break things off the nanosecond you discover something like that. Give it a few days, then do what must be done.
