Because of this, some people come to believe that sigma males avoid falling in love and entering committed relationships.
This is a gross misconception, however, as when sigma males find someone they care about they can make for some of the best, albeit most unusual, partners. If you find yourself in a relationship with a sigma male, here are some of the most common things to expect.

If you find yourself dating a sigma male, you might notice pretty quickly that he’s unlikely to share the petty problems he encountered throughout the day. Rather than sit around and complain, sigma males would rather dedicate this time towards coming up with genuine solutions to their problems, and view sharing minor problems with others as a waste of precious time that could be put to better use taking action.

They will keep a cool head
Sigma males possess a high intellect, and are rational thinkers through and through. Even when it comes to relationships, they rarely slip into emotional ways of thinking and prefer to process everything with reason and rationality.

They need their alone time

They might need to work on their communication

They can have a tendency to keep their feelings to themselves, and sometimes this can be a difficult habit for them to change when they enter into a relationship. When they do get close to another person, it might take some time for them to perfect their communication skills, and this is something that their partners will have to foster and treat with patience.
