Yea see Im getting a lot of mix signals irl. like looks matter a lot, but I also see people that looked clapped with girlfriends. More clapped ppl dont have girlfriends tho. Im getting so much different experiences from what is said online, sometimes even from Leo videos.

I understand thanks

Hey. Thanks for your response. I am derma penning now once a week. Thank you for your share I wasn't aware of this. Have you tried minoxidil? If so are you taking oral or topical? What is your experience? Appreciate it again.

yea you guys are right, I mean maybe stupid question obviously you should max out looks. Maybe I should of made this thread about finasteride alone, because thats what I am curious about mainly.

Although this forum leans heavily toward PUA thinking and tends to put “game” on a pedestal, it’s obvious that looks still play a major role. Even Leo eventually acknowledged this, saying that looks and status are among the most important factors in dating—despite previously claiming the opposite and stating in earlier videos that looks don’t matter. Looksmaxxing has become increasingly popular, and for many people it can lead to significant improvements in appearance. That said, it also comes with time, effort, and some risk. What I’m really trying to figure out is whether looksmaxxing offers a high enough ROI to justify those costs. At the core, looksmaxxing basically comes down to: Getting in shape Skincare Haircare (minoxidil, finasteride) Improving fashion So the main question is: is looksmaxxing actually worth to get laid? And as a follow-up—if anyone has firsthand experience—was starting finasteride worth it for you? I think preserving hair is like a very big part of that, but finasteride seems scary. Thanks for the responses in advance!

So many things happened internally. I want to specifically talk about the way I motivate myself. I figured out a way to motivate myself, but it's through compulsive fear. The thing is, it's so god damn effective. I can lap everyone and anyone with this. I can work super hard with this. but it's literally like I am voluntarily strapping a shock machine to my neck which shocks me whenever I don't work. Like yea obviously I work way better. But it's lowkey self hurting. Im trying to figure out other ways to motivate myself, but its not the same in terms of outside results.

Angels in bible lowkey look like this picture you displayed

I am on exchange. A beautiful city. I got cool friends. I don't have a girlfriend, but generally speaking everything is fine, great even. But Im so fucking numb, I feel like my life is so fucking colorless.......idk fucking why. I feel it so much. I am too tired to write down what I want to, Il write it tomorrow.

Okay two weeks in. I haven't been able to journal that much recently, one reason is because it is very difficult to articulate what's going on in my mind. Long story short, until yesterday I was using a lot of fear based motivation. It's super effective. For some reason it did not feel right. I am not sure how to explain it, but for some reason I did not feel "whole" and very fragmented. It felt wrong albeit its the most effective thing I had to drive action. I was very scared to shift the way that I motivate myself. I tried so many things, cried and emotionally died so many times to be able to achieve the discipline I've achieved the past year. But for some reason, I feel like I have to change the way I motivate myself, which is scary because it means I putting the level of discipline I have at risk. One of the recent lessons I learned is that sometimes courage and boldness matters more than discipline. Motivating myself through fear makes it very difficult for me to be courageous. Approaching girls takes courage I feel. Idk why but I feel so cringe writing into this journal. Ughh

Except a girl everything in my life right now is actually pretty good. But the no girl part fucks everything. Or will I never be satisfied? idk?

1st week of exchange. 1st week completely on my own. Damn it feels lowkey good. So many small things happened. 1. Learned to do laundry 2. Spent way too much money (apparently I have to budget lol) 3. Scared to ask other women out, so have been doing so. I realize that women who I think are absolutely stunning, it's hard for me to ask them out. I mean it makes sense, but fuck. 4. Electricity cut off cuz my dumbass forgot to complete the electricity contract (I thought I did) 5. Went climbing for the first time It's been fun. But for some reason, I feel like there is no soul in my life. I can't say why. Everything seems king of impersonal or insignificant. I want to ask girls out, but scared, I use self improvement as procrastination for sure lmao.

First two days living alone. I am on a university exchange. This is a huge chapter in my development. I have to capitalize on it as much as possible. I asked a girl out today, someone I met on the first day of the exchange school, she said she had a boyfriend. I am happy I did it lmao.

Thank you for all the responses. I was traveling s couldn't read them soon.

It's funny because right now, the reputation of European states that victimized Africa is much better than any African state. Obviously a lot of this is to do with development. But it still goes to show how it doesn't fuckin matter if you are viewed as evil if you can extract all the resources and get mega rich and powerful. Once super powerful can even control narratives, make yourself ethnically superior, make the other inferior and ultimately label yourself the good guy. ps. Western world has come a long way, European countries have a lot of great things going for them. I'm just giving an example, of how ex colonial contries acted, and what they got away with.
