You do attract sluts. I’ve gone on a lot of tinder dates. but I’ve still fucked them on the first date usually. See? the girls who always fuck me and get interested in me are virgins, or girls with a low count in general. Do you think you're the only Tinder dude they've "dated"? Why would they fuck you on the first date and not any of the other dudes they've swiped right? Look at actions, not words. They’re not bad looking either. Good on ya. All women will be a slut for someone; are you that gu…

she told me that she wanted to take things slow. told me that she was busy and never tried to reschedule “damn I wanted to smoke (not be sexual) with you before work”. You're an orbiter. Also, your grapes are sour and that kind of attitude is unattractive.

Hold the phone. Who's the fucking prize here? ​ She should be worried about what YOU are doing while she's out of country. ​ "Have fun on your trip!" You'll miss me? "Yep." Are you going out/doing whatever social thing you do? "Of course!"

The one thing I agree with in this thread is that its a bad place to pickup, women are sweaty and uncomfortable talking and its supposed to stay quiet. The hot women usually go straight to the showers and leave right after and there is no chance to talk to them This is true. But then you see Yolanda from Yoga in Trader Joe's later that day/week, now you have a plausibly deniable way to open her.

I've been pushing for anal sex with this FWB (escalating with fingers), but she always keeps saying she doesn't want to do it (with you / right now). First problem is that you're "pushing for it". Your frame should be "Anal is NBD, I've had it before, I'll do it again some day. She gets to decide if it's with her." Getting girls to do things is one thing, but getting them to WANT to do that thing is something else. Escalating (with actions) is good, but when she pumps the brakes, her actions say…

It's been said, but learn a musical instrument. Don't forget to learn how to sing. Also, shredding in your bedroom won't wet any panties. You need to perform in front of people and be relaxed and charismatic while doing it. I'll also second the dancing suggestion. Latin is good, but if you don't like that, check out country (Texas two-step). It's fun to move your body, chicks like it when you lead, and lots of places in cities have lessons for both at bars.

how on earth do people pick up in a place where you can’t hear anything? The environment is what it is. Don't wish it were different, use it to your advantage. Loud just means you have to get physical sooner. Judge IOI by body language and eye contact. Get physically close to talk. Pull her by the waist to talk in your ear. Brush her hair behind her ear to talk to her. Isolate by "lets go (outside, over there, where ever) so we can actually talk."

Question about socks: in a casual outfit (say jeans and cool, colorful sneakers--bright blue with white trim), is the advice to go with short no-show or ankle-length white socks, or to go with full-length socks that aren't white? Black, tan, or charcoal crew socks are OK. But it's also popular these days to wear loud, clashing, "Rad socks". Basically, if you're going to wear socks, make sure everyone knows you're wearing socks. It's better than a fuzzy tophat for peacocking. Obviously with short…

Ask for the "sides taken in and back darts." I'm tall, broad shouldered, but have a 31" waist. I usually pay $15 per shirt for double-stitching. Sleeves a little too long or too baggy?

If you have to ask, you shouldn't be getting them. taking nude pictures or recording video while having sex While she's enthusiastically fucking you (or clearly enjoying getting fucked from behind), say "OMG, you have to see what I can see. Gimme your phone!" Take a couple pictures or short videos with her phone. The next few days, she'll find them, maybe send 'em to you if she has a sexy flashback. Also, don't keep nudes.

Plate If she cums, and you cum, there's no problem. Really, even if you don't cum, but you're still having fun, there's no problem. You could start gaming her earlier and get her mind working before the physical encounter so she'd feel turned-on for longer.

Whichever outfits or pieces you feel conscious about, wear them around the house when you're not going anywhere. Just get used to the feel of the clothes on your body. Then when you're out, you already feel comfortable in those clothes. It's obvious when a man wears a blazer, or leather-soled shoes, or pants that aren't jeans when he usually doesn't. He'll carry his body differently.

I'll take this one. Just like single-blade shaving your face, you need to stretch the skin tight. Wrinkles are what get caught in the blade. Pick your favorite method, Cat Brain or Sailboat, and work your way around until you've covered the whole area. Don't forget the gooch, you might have to squat for access. You might break out with a bunch of tiny zits or in-growns whenever you shave your body hair. Tip #9 by /u/2ndal is effective, or you can use what hospitals use to keep post-surgury shave…

Congratulations, you're dating / seeing a heterosexual female. You should be worried if she DOESN'T show signs of attraction to attractive males. At the end of the day, if she rides your dick into the sunset, you're the higher branch and you've satisfied her hypergamy (right now). Enjoy your turn.

It's a subtle difference, but make yourself the source of the validation you're giving, not just confirming what she may or may not already know. "I like your style." rather than "You have great style." Edit to add: Like was mentioned in another comment, confirming her attribute comes from below. But, expressing your judgement of the attribute comes from above.

You can help physically with prep, lube, gradual training, etc, but in the end, she has to want to do it (with you). "It's OK, some girls just can't do it." That puts her back in the position of qualifying to you and "how dare you suggest she 'can't' do something?" You decide if no anal is a dealbreaker for you. If it is, find a girl who wants to do it (with you). You decide what you want, she decides if it's with her.

I never used a dating site, only swiping apps. The burden of performance (to approach or message first) is on the man, so the avalanche flowing toward women shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

However, I was shocked at how many happened in the first couple weeks (literally dozens per day). Now, a match isn't a guaranteed anyt…

I found that going away from the "medicinal" or chemical kinds of soaps and using something made from oil or tallow had an immediate effect on my skin and the softness of my beard. This stuff kicks ass. I can soap up twice a day and not feel dried out. One thing my endocrinologist told me though, is that if your T is climbing (from heavy lifting or otherwise), body zits are going to happen. Once it's stable, that goes away.

Short answer: It doesn't matter as long as you sing. Play the one you like to listen to. Medium answer: Acoustic Guitar. And learn to sing. It's portable, versatile, and really not that hard to learn. Yeah, everyone else plays guitar too, so you can pass it around a campfire or your living room, or whatever. You can pick up someone else's guitar and strum a few chords. Solo violin sounds ridiculous unless you're Andrew Bird. It's also loud as fuck. Long answer: Whichever one will net you better …

No cure. Once you have the virus, it's for life. If your immune system is in good shape and functioning, it usually stays suppressed. Stressful events or other sickness can trigger an outbreak. You can augment the natural suppression with daily medication which is 50% effective. Taking suppressive medication, using condoms, and abstaining during outbreaks statistically puts the chance of transmission around 2%. The worrisome thing is that asymptomatic viral shedding can still infect a partner. h…

Getting off topic here, but I don't care. Yes, my goal is to eventually maintain 2-3 plates.

Some of these girls I recognize someone I swiped over a week ago, so it's probably taking some time for me to even appear on their feed.

my own concern over what negative feelz might come from my increasing absences. Too much thinking on my part Right. Key point right here. DWYW and if it's actually a problem for her, she'll let you know by some method, then you can assess if it affects you and act accordingly.

2gun's post from last week that had me thinking about the dynamic of being scarce when young children are involved. So here's the thing: I'm not punishing my wife when I go do shit. She's fully capable of handling the kids by herself and so am I. I'm not fucking off and leaving out of anger- I'm legitimately leaving to go do the fun shit I want to do. On the nights or weekend afternoons when the kids are awake or know I'm leaving, I tell them what I'm up to. "I'm going to shoot guns / play music…

Part 2 Some Shit I’m Owning better than last week Sex with wife I tried a couple new tactics for initiating: twice (but not in a row), she was on the couch scrolling when I finished my post-lift shower. I sat down next to her, pulled her legs onto my lap, started kino, eventually pulled her pants off, and slowly escalated until she was wet, grinding, and I was fingering her. Nothing timid or hesitant on my part, no pussyfooting around my intentions, just taking what I want because it’s mine. She…

I would try eating more throughout the day so that you don't have to cram 900 cals of nasty ass rice. I find, even if the meal was huge, it's pretty easy to slam an 8oz whole milk / whey shake after every meal and periodically throughout the day. That's ~280 cal and ~30g of protein each. 3 oz of cashews is 500 cal and trivial to eat if you just leave the bag open next to your work space. That also seems to remind me to drink water too.

Curious as to whether she was amped up more than normal with another woman's pheremones circulating? I'd say definitely maybe. The first time, she wanted it harder and deeper than usual.

Own Your Shit 7-12-2016 Shit I’m owning Lifting, Diet, Fitness, Style, Work, Finances, Parenting, the Ship Shit I’m owning better than last week Social Life and Away Game A few times now, some of you guys have given me the advice to build some social capital in the music / bar scene beyond just running some game on random hotties. I’ve been thinking about this and realized that even though I was in a crowd, I was indeed operating in a vacuum and only focusing on myself and acquiring targets. I h…

Went to a bar with live music, and as 2guns had indicated this type of venue seems to make approaching easier (because there is a focal point (band) to key off of….). Chatted up several nice gals. One of my problems is I am intimidated by large (>2) groups of people relative to breaking in…. Need to work on that. Nice work. Big groups are kind of tough to break into. You can always just be that random talkative guy to open, but the group will usually just chuckle, acknowledge you, then go back t…

According to this article, it looks like 5 sets of 10 at 70% of your 1RM, or 6x6 @ 80%, twice per week per muscle group is recommended for those of us prioritizing muscle size over pure strength. In your experience, are those numbers an appropriate quantification of what you meant by "Stay high weight and do high volume"?

Maybe your instincts are calibrated correctly - and you were headed for perfunctory sex In the entirety of my memory (which is both precise and accurate), any time she didn't get handsy with the first few kisses ended up as mediocre or just above starfish.

Yeah, she usually unloads her stories of their shenanigans, but for the relative amount of time she spends with them, I think they're probably pretty well behaved. This takes into account that the situations she's in with them are almost entirely kid-centric with other mommies and little kids.

I'll play! I was a state champion swimmer all four years in highschool and I had pretty massive lats and triceps, but not much else. During college and after, I was into DH mountain biking and rode dirtbikes. Although I never did any exercise for the sake of exercise, I was generally very active until my first kid was born, about 5 years ago. I’d run a 5-10k with friends with no prep. The only “training” I ever did was for a half-marathon with the wife (one of her pre-children bucket list items)…

This paragraph: Can I live with it if this is as good as it gets? I'm agonizing over it. I'm unhappy, and there's no other area of my life where I would remotely consider just settling for mediocre. I believe you only get one chance at life, and I could never just give up on happiness. is almost exactly what I've been simmering on for the past week, except I would describe it as "unsatisfied" instead of "unhappy". Somewhere, there's a point where "leading" becomes "pulling". I'm following your p…

I'm mentally prepared and becoming increasingly practically prepared.

you aren't getting attention from other women because she is a 'mom' now but rather because you find people who are passionate, motivated, and in shape to be worth your time. From there she can see that she needs to not just be mom but must also take care of her body, try, and remain a motivated individual who creates value by your side - then you reward that with your 'love' - time and attention.

So having a needy husband enervating her is actually worse than no husband present.

I'm lucky, I haven't had to go beyond level 5 for my wife to step up As far as my wife has been exposed to, that's as far I've gone too. I've always bee…

I'd be lying if I said that wasn't floating around in my mind. And more than that, it's that I don't want to go down the path of divorce until my wife has a job again. I'd probably be OK with a finger in my butt from the family court, but not an unlubed giant dildo.

What's the purpose of continuing to up the dread right now? I'm holding at level 7 until level 8 happens organically. Is that lazy? Maybe, but activity vs passivity in that level is the difference between DLV and DHV. What are you trying to achieve through that for yourself, your marriage, or your family? I think I want investment from my wife in our relationship. But since that still smells like external validation, I have a couple more layers of "why" to ask. So: Do you know? Does she know? No…

It has been my experience that high intensity sports will cure the nervous energy; and provide a plethora of other important lessons. Maybe this is a discussion for /r/redpillfatherhood, but so far, my experience has been that the more tired they are, the more relentlessly they fidget, cling, and do dumb shit. My older son (4.5) can focus on books, writing, or legos for quite a long time when he's rested. But the more exhausted from physical activities he becomes, the harder it is for him to fol…

Impostor Syndrome You're doing the right thing; owning your thoughts, writing them out, then sharing them with mentors. Now that you have a list of shit you worry about, pick one thing at a time and crush it. If you're already lifting and eating clean, start by kicking ass at your job. Also, make your wife worry that she's not good enough for YOU.

Anybody looking at you and not knowing what goes on in your mind would think that you had the perfect life.... Anyone who's still plugged in... I'm pretty sure if a dude who knows what's up saw us at the airport, he could have guessed I wasn't running the ship. Women wouldn't have even seen me; invisible, remember? HA! The van was a Ford with the 6.0 diesel. Never again...

Women don't want to make choices. One of my favorite ways to confirm this is to watch my wife park her car in an empty parking lot. Of all the spots available, she inevitably chooses two at once.

I have been thinking about it for months as a potential problem, but after reading J10 comments last J10 set in this post ; I have concluded I must stop being spreadsheet guy (i.e. the data part….not the stupid talking about your data part). Given I have proven over the last six months that my wife is my mirror, my thinking about sex in a transactional/benchmarked manor can obviously be a cause for her lack of spontaneity (duh…..). So as much as I love data (engineer….go figure), I am stopping t…

I got you, bro. I may write a post on this, but someone already wrote something similar a few months back about comfort tests. If you want to see textbook shit-tests, go to a bar and talk to women. They're thinking about fucking everyone who engages them (but they're not sure...) so obvious shit-tests are obvious. In the first few months of your MAP, you have to realize that you're just not on your wife's radar; she doesn't want your attention. Your wife might not actually be shit testing you (b…

I bought an entry level squat rack, adjustable bench, an Olympic barbell, and 350# of plates from some kid on CL for $300. I picked up a door-frame pull up bar for another few bucks and I was in business. I picked up some used olympic dumb bell handles a couple months later and my "kids" got me the ab-wheel for Christmas. It's time to upgrade the squat rack to a power cage for safety though.

One thing that comes through is how much easier things are when you expand the circle of concern beyond just your wife. I found myself reading and sort of skimming over the stuff about the LTR because I wanted to find out more about all the other cool shit you've got going on in your life - which is exactly the dynamic you want. Yes. Exactly this. "Falling in love with myself" was essentially how I broke my oneitis and knocked pussy off the pedestal. had any dark nights of the soul, or any dead …

Bit weird that you're not defined yet, but I guess it's down to genetics. Didn't look up your program, but are you doing anything to your core, other than squatting and such? I do ab wheel, and hanging leg raises. They're under there, there's just a saucer-sized last little bit of belly fat that needs to go... I think the real reason is that my BI scale is lying and I'm really just north of 12%.

After researching typical alimony and CS payments in my state, I figured what my remaining income might be and shopped for apartments that I could afford, knowing my own basic expenses. Deposits are typically = one month rent around here, so my FU fund was 2 months rent + $1k for a lawyer retainer. I have a $20k credit card that's only in my name that I would use for expenses until I could regain access to my share of joint funds. I keep a "bug-out" folder at work with copies of bank and investm…

Do you have the link for the YaReally James Deen article? /u/BluepillProfessor posted about it a few months ago Do you think FKATMC helped more than hurt, given your wife's comments about it later? I don't know... She hasn't finished the book even though she reads other books constantly. She (like anyone) will only do what she actually wants to do, so it's on her to receive the information I offered. Having read the book myself, I picked up on a few instances of her applying the "moves". But as …

What people really need is an equitable relationship. This allows both parties to retain (and respect!) their own personal table of values that the partners choose to either honor for each other or adapt to each other. There is no end of the day measurement of whether everyone did the same number of chores or earned/spent the same amount of money. Equitable relationships are built on honesty, sacrifice, standing up for self and respect (for yourself and your partner). Thanks for this. I think th…

Funny you mention that. As I was compiling this, I thought to myself that a goal I need to work toward is to stop recording every damn thing and just live. That's when I'll be Making It instead of Faking It.

Month 11 I’m actually feeling a bit indifferent toward sex this month. I increased my social events again and I’m now going out alone more often than not. Every time I go out, I open 3-4 strangers (or groups) for conversation. I frequently go to a bar that features live country music and dancing. My mission is to enjoy the band, but I always take the opportunity to dance with women I find attractive. I’ve noticed (starting about midway through last month) that I usually get approached before I c…

Month 10 The increased shit-testing is about to turn into overt disrespect instead of simple lack of respect. When I got home one day, the house was a mess and there were dishes from the day in the kitchen. I jumped in and did the dishes with no comments. She came in and said "I can tell you're mad that the house is a mess." I wasn't and hadn't said anything so I can assume she was feeling guilty and projecting. [Shit test] In the past I have explicitly said I want to set the example to our sons…

Thoughts on FKATMC: I read the whole thing before giving it to my wife. There’s lots of good stuff in there. Even though it's a feminine book, I find myself identifying with many of the "controlling" mannerisms which helps me realize ways in which I've been feminized and have been behaving. I also identified my wife's behavior in most of the examples, which clarifies just how passive I allowed myself to be in our relationship. The concepts in this book seem like they'd be well received by a woma…

Month 8 Boring But Big is definitely effective. All parts of me gained some size and I hit my peak weight of 212 lbs. I’m sick of feeling sick from eating so much food so I’m going to cut, even though I’m just one month into the program. I ate at maintenance for the last two weeks of the month. I got a bio-impedance scale for Christmas and confirmed my BF% is ~18 like I thought. I know those things aren’t known for their accuracy, but it’ll at least show me the trend when I start cutting. One mo…

I think the RPL here is "I applied passive dread by enjoying myself in the company of others, which is especially effective when in a far-way land, and is doubly effective if I relocated and maybe I like it here fine without wife". You're exactly right.

Calibration and correlating is exactly what I was trying to describe in my caveat. I'm going to steal your words for my repost in MRP, so thanks! I actually have a journal entry that I'm converting to a post about turning my career attitude toward my marriage as a way to kill my oneitis. Spoiler for my MAP report: Things are turning around, pretty much exactly as you've predicted, minus the wife seeing the groupies. Ultimately I don't control the actions or choices of anyone but myself. If my wi…

I actually have a journal entry that I intend to turn into a post about killing my oneitis. I looked at my married relationship the same way I looked at my career (pretty much exactly as /u/jacktenofhearts alluded above). Experience has shown me there is an abundance of great jobs any time I decide to look for a new one. I've never been afraid to walk away from a job that didn't meet my desires as far as pay, respect, or (most important to me) stimulation. Basically, I embraced abundance mentali…
