What value does a woman offer in a conventional relationship?

As a man in a relationship youre required to offer money,monogamy,time,emotional support,fun,excitement and great sex. My question is what do men get out of this deal besides the advantage of reproducing. Is it really worth engaging in a monogomous relationship anymore?

AB,

It really depends on what your needs are, and different girls can provide different needs (or wants) that other women can't. There might be one girl who provides you with way better sex than you've ever had, or maybe there's one girl who has exactly the same hobbies as you and is willing to engage in them along with you. Or maybe you've just wanted to sling a hot girl under your shoulder and call her your girlfriend because you know every other guy will drool over her. My current girl provides all of the above as well as amazing home-cooked meals because she works one of her jobs as a cook; I'm average (at best) at cooking, and so are some of the girls I've slept with, so this is something unique to her that she can provide to me on a regular basis.

Different girls provide different value in different areas. Sometimes you meet a girl that provides you with so much value in areas that YOU value highly that it's worth keeping her around for awhile as a long-term prospect. Over time, the amount of value you place in these areas might decrease, and if it does, then it might be time to end the exclusive relationship. But there are some things that long-term relationships with amazing women provide that one-night stands and casual flings do not (and of course, vice versa).

So in my opinion, it is best to engage in casual, sexual relationships with women until you happen to come across one that provides you with value that is unique to your wants and needs and is value that you would love to have on a regular basis for a long period of time.

Franco's response is about all you need here, and it is along the same lines of the advice that I've seen Richard (Zphix) and Chase give on the matter. Just by pure chance of meeting and sleeping with a lot of girls, you're bound to eventually run into one that has exactly what you're looking for, isn't completely insane, and understands how loving relationships are supposed to work.

Not much I can add, other than your general outlook of how relationships work:

As a man in a relationship youre required to offer money,monogamy,time,emotional support,fun,excitement and great sex. My question is what do men get out of this deal besides the advantage of reproducing.

...seems to fall very, very short of what I'd expect from a woman. That is the average man's way of thinking, which is why women get away with it (because most men let them).

Me? I want her to give me everything you listed in the first sentence- and probably a lot more than that. What entitles a woman to be in a relationship with a man and not help with money, be monogamous, have time for you, provide emotional support and be exciting and great in bed to boot? In fact, the more you screen women and press them on the fact that you require these things, then all the more attracted she'll be to you, because you separate yourself from most of the other men she's ever met who are buying her things, taking her fancy places, and all of these other grandiose things that they do to try and impress her.

So, I think you should really re-evaluate how a relationship with a woman should work. You're the man in the relationship, so act like one :)

Keep it simple: she's got to love you, cook for you, clean up after you, wash all the dishes, listen to you, be faithful, be smart and educated, take a great care about your kids, be social and open minded, be sexy with lots of feminine energy, looks at least 8/10 and be nympho in the bed. Don't settle for anything less than that.

Unfortunately, if you live in USA the chances to meet such girl are about 0.0000001, and actually marry such girl and stay married to her are even less. In Europe you might get much better chances, say 0.00001...

Good luck (to all of us) :)
