I just recently got turn down by someone I have loved since childhood and as a result I am heart broken. After picking up the pieces I have come to learn that I have let myself go as my health has declined since I left highschool due to problems in my life.

So I went to focus on self improvemnt and I found searching the net for advice and that most of the it is filled with red pill advice, women only want money status and ect and the rest seems to be trash magazine level garbage and not sure how to judge the quality as I don’t know what women want to begin with.

So what are some good sources or books for somone who wants to improve themselfs to feel better and improve their SMV.

Part of me thinks it’s hopeless as I am only 5’8” and I am not big boned so even though I have an eight pack I will never be able to conpete with taller more muscular men and always be considered inferior.
