Interesting conversation.
I wanted to add a little bit about "game." I see a lot of guys here saying that "game" is not compatible with Christianity. While this can be true, it depends how you define "game." If you're defining it as attempting to emulate Roosh before his conversion and the various psychopaths and degenerates who frequented his forum back then, basically as finding the most efficient way to fornicate with the greatest number of the most attractive women possible this is obviously a very, very bad thing and not in accordance with Christianity.
I don't define "game" that way. I'd define it as the ability to understand women and satisfy them emotionally. That is, something that can be used for good or evil, much like a firearm. I'd argue that it's essential to "have game" in this sense if you want a happy, low-stress marriage. I use this type of game on my wife daily. If you expect your wife to behave well just because she should or because the Church tells her to without making the effort to understand her emotions and how your behavior influences them, you'll probably be very disappointed and end up with one of those marriages that's "difficult" and "a lot of hard work" that I hear people talk about so often.
It's mind boggling to me how most people seem to just accept marriage as some miserable and difficult lifelong chore. It doesn't have to be that way if you choose your wife well and understand how to satisfy her emotionally.
Whether or not you want to call satisfying your wife emotionally "game" doesn't matter, it's something you should do as a husband, along with satisfying her physically. If you understand women and why they do the things they do, it's pretty easy to have a fun, low stress life with one. Especially if you add taking care of yourself physically to the mix so that you can better satisfy her physically. I strongly recommend doing this, whether or not you want to call it "game."
