@flowboy yeah p sure it's gaslighting

@Emerald personally it's just too judgemental for me too take it seriously. I would prefer if you offered your opinion and wanted to have conversations. Like the way you talk about people who do pickup, just the wording is sort of insulting. But that's just me Anyway hope you can reconsider your approach. If not, I get it

thanks!! but i remember your comment several months ago of your rant about how some people on the forum were a bunch of weirdos for not being good with women and needing help (paraphrasing). i can pull up the comment if you'd like lmaoooo

@soos_mite_ah lets be fair women harbor bitterness to men all the time. not pitting men against women here but u said that like yall just move on without ever getting bitter lmao

Ya I care way less than I used to as well. It's not that fulfilling. Like it's not even the good stuff of the relationship. The good shit is the depth part of the relationship But then again an analogy I thought was that it could be related to food. At the end of the day the taste of the food matters more I'd presume. But you'd also want food that looks good as well. But taste matters more

Have to agree with @Bando here, I don't feel she was honest about what they did. Looking back to my own rel it was so obvious that they did way more. Problem was I trusted so hard, but theres def a distinction between being trustful and being naive and also justifying/rationalizing certain behaviors by others

I have been in a similar situation Self respect is a huge thing for me now. What would a self respecting decision for you be here? My spidey senses really doesn't like this whole situation. Super triggered by it too. Sorry for that having happened to you. For me it was so rough when it happened. Good luck

@Emerald Well by options I meant that dating apps and things like that give you access to more people (to help you find the ones you want). Also to note that yeah there also will be simultaneously be more people who are not the right fit Friend groups always had me skeptical because the amount of people in it was just too less to find me the exact girl I needed. But like you said if you curate it well I can see how you could make that work perhaps

awesome tips great post. this could work for men too i think downside is that your options get decreased a lot though?

remember guys to consider that we all engage in low consciousness behavior from time to time so it's best to refrain from insults

i think it might be helpful to craft some yourself that may help with your weaknesses and also help manifest what you want becuase i think affirmations are subject to your needs + desires but personally I like: i manifest a good woman for myself i have great social skills women are naturally into me also some keys to affirmations are believing, feeling, trusting and embodying by taking action. mechanical/mindless or doing it half-assed is very low results

well to be fair i like sex but regarding the context of my post it's not BS. it's rarely ever on my mind

Lol idk I don't care about sex But if I had to dig deep on what being nice to me meant It means emotionally intelligent, empathetic, honest, integrous, non-judgemental and loyal These are non-negotiables for me in a healthy relationship

she just gotta be nice and we gotta flow and feel each other for me idk

@Leo Gura what's so ugly about building self-confidence, social skills and flirting skills? it's as human as it gets imo

i try to let them know it's more me and not them. and iterate to them that they are a good person and it has nothing to do with you. i once said it to a girl , with a really heartfelt response and she seemed to take it well and we remained friends after that. once a girl went absolutely off on me but like i was doing my best to remain kind and integrous. so just keep in mind their responses are somewhat out of your control but you can have some influence

@coca uwot

Why is slut shaming allowed on the forum lmao

Omgg Guys do consider women read these threads. When they see stuff like this consider how they might feel. Let's try to transcend this a little bit, this a very old school idea, at least to me. A women's past has nothing do with her present. Nor is anything wrong with it in the first place, it is social conditioning.. I can relate if it triggers you but do consider how it may effect others

im not an incel dawg nor is my philosophy BS. i can be wrong at times but that doesnt make it bs. also her philosophy isn't like "more than" mine. it's on the same playing field imo

Mark Manson is chill but his philosophy can get sooooo black-white-y. He said he would do that stuff because the shock stuff gets clicks.. Was pretty turned off by that myself but if u resonate that's good

I mean you've definitely bolstered this stereotype lol. Few weeks back I called u out for more nuance and u said. "Well the truth is that women just love alphas, and thsts the fact"

@Mason Riggle is that legit?? I tried to find more info and I couldn't find anything

It definietely comes with its issues. But so did the Civil rights movement in the 1960s Malcolm X fought for black power (while Mlk fought for integration) and many people got violent over black rights While some people might take it to the extreme, that didn't take away from the core issue the black people were facing severe injustice at the time Not everyone who is fighting for the movement is like the people you described. I think it might only be a small minority The core of the movement is good, with tons of excesses and a lot of it will work itself out just like the first civil rights movement (imo)

@something_else you're right, but it's still a form of privelege. U can't deny whether you'd rather have money versus its lack of. That's an easy decision, even if having money comes with its own issues I'd rather deal with the issues that come with being rich than being poor 100x over and I know ur ass would pick it too Yeah this
