So I was recently watching some of AMS' videos on YouTube, which introduced me to this world of redpills and bluepills etc. I admit, his words were becoming more and more captivating, because one, I still feel somewhat broken and upset from my divorce a month ago. And at any low point in your life, a lot of things tend to sound sweet in your ears.

But the more I watched his videos and read posts on reddit about being red pilled, that echo chamber was getting LOUD. Sure I would try to incorporate so of the things they spoke about, being on your purpose, confident, treat women with a great amount of indifference to attract them (hasn't worked yet, which is probably for the better), maintaining frame at all times, trying to be Alpha.

Along the way of falling into this pit of sadness I felt, deep down that it wasn't right, it wasn't me. To emotionally manipulate women, and emotionally distance myself from them. Maintain this hard and mysterious persona to be more attractive. I was starting to view all women and relationships in a negative light, but I realized that's just me being bitter looking for answers to suit my narrative.

I hate I may have almost made a huge mistake, or maybe I'm making a mistake in not doing it...idk but while it doesn't fit me personally, I can see the appeal, much like any drug, you take once recreationally, then on the weekends, then then every other weekday, and now you're addicted. I feel there are truths to their movement but I also feel some of their truths are in ignorance. Like I said I'm just taking and introspective look into this and trying to gain insight. Why do there have to be pills? why everything in black and white? it's silly imo.
