For me the answer is yes. When I first started traveling to Asia and realized just how easy and cheap it was to have sex with hot young women, it changed my perspective on dating. No longer was I desperate to impress average American women. That added confidence boost helped me also get laid in the US much easier than before. It also made me focus on the really important characteristics when choosing long term partners. I was no longer fooled by sexy looks, or just good sex (like my first wife). Because I knew those are commodities very easily bought. So in the end it helped my long term relationships as well. And now I am married to a wonderful partner who understands me and I can play as much as I want without cheating.
