Unpopular opinion: Not everyone you love is good for your peace. Agree or disagree?

What makes a women difficult to marry ?
@Mrfarhanshahzad
Girl, marry a man who learns how to comfort you instead of getting offended by your sadness.

Bit of a rant.
Idk the phycology behind this, so I'm interested to know.
I hate small talk.
It's value-less (if that's a word) conversation, but disguised with beautiful questions.
(Eg: how are you, hows your day, what did you do over the weekend, etc)
I've always felt uncomfortable when doing small talk. I'd rather have someone be straight to the point.
No im not depressed or very serious. I just value my time. Especially when I'm not in my comfort zone (I'm an introvert, so thats quite often)
Now what intrigued me is:
- -why am I like this?
- -If we are such social creatures then why isn't everyone like this?
- -Is there any psychological reason for it?

A woman I used to work with, now in her mid-40s, recently made the personal decision to stop wearing her hijab. Whatever her reasons, that’s entirely her choice.
Interestingly, now, she looks noticeably younger, almost as though she’s had a glow up and taken ten years off her appearance.
It got me wondering...
Does wearing a hijab influence how we perceive a woman’s age ?
If you wear one then do you think it makes you look younger or older, or is it simply a matter of perception ?

THE ALPHA WOLF FOUNDATION IS FLAWED
There is no such thing as an ALPHA male. David Mech, the biologist who wrote the famous book titled "The Wolf" in 1970 provided basis for this term. However, through continuous research David corrected his idea of alpha wolf in 1990s. He concluded that, in wild wolves stay as families, and larger wolves are parents who provide care to their families instead of being assertive and aggressive, the traits usually associated with alpha males. Leading a pack by being assertive can be the case in captivity where different wolves (not belonging to one family) are trying to survive.
Despite this, the ALPHA concept became highly popular, so did beta and sigma. However, these are not backed by psychology. So what's the implication of this for men. Is it important to have alpha traits in relationships? NO.
BE ADAPTIVE
An ALPHA by being decisive and assertive when faced with important life decisions and family obligations..Also, don't let your boundaries to be crossed by anyone.
A beta by being supportive and cooperative towards your partner. Don't be mean and selfish by imposing your opinions on them all the time.
A sigma by maintaining your own identity, hobbies, and friendships without being overly dependent on your partner.

@Merveicva
Just a question; does your taste in music 🎶 or movie 🎬 actually reflect who you are, or is it just an esthetic costume you wear for the world?
Was just wondering 🤔
