Divorced, childless, late 30s TRP man-child-animal here. Respect to all men owning their shit.

I'm curious: Why is MRP is labeled RP on hard mode?

What if you discover RP while married, realize the true shitty nature of your marriage (even after lifting, OYS, etc), and you actively pursue a divorce? Did you then lose this hard-mode game? Are you less of an alpha if you go that route?

Granted, I understand married men have a lot to lose. Divorce rape is real. (No kids, broke as fuck at the time, amicable lawyer-less divorce, I'm one lucky bastard.) And if you have kids AND a wife, that's a lot to handle for a man today. I get that. Being a combo of husband and father entails obviously more responsibilities than me.

If "hard mode" simply equals

  • I don't want to get divorce-raped
  • I want to have good, intense, satisfying sex with my wife/ltr on a regular basis
  • I don't want to lose my kids / family structure
  • I want order and stability in my house

then I get it. But if I'm missing something here, please elaborate.
