If you want a happy marriage then read the sidebar books. Every other year or so, reread. Or as needed if more often. You need to care less about other peoples lives or opinions of yours and just live your own and follow your own path. This is a very young comparative mindset and it matters less and less the more you age. That being said, make sure you are on the path you want to be on. You "captain save a ho"'ed the hell out of that situation and "rescued" her. You may realize down the road it …

Is there such a thing as married monk mode I should do for a while? Monk mode is monk mode... married or not, just different scenery. Sometimes when the lottery get's really up there...1/2 billion on up. I'll catch myself fantasizing about it. There's so much amazing stuff I could do with that kind of dough. But it's just that. A fantasy. Just a bit of mental entertainment for falling asleep or while I'm waking up in the shower. If I'm having a particularly shitty day, I notice I can get stuck i…

It's relative. If you are now better than you were before: you'll get rewarded for your effort. Keep going in the same direction. We all had to start somewhere. Hint: Stop responding to all the ribbing on your stats like a wuss. Its a stfu exercise. A worse weakness is mental weakness and feeling the need to defend.

...and this is why I think anal is overrated. If you want to go spelunking in the brown eye cavern, you need to have a thick skin to typical encounters with the inhabitants. She's calling you a fag because it keeps the magic of her belief in her body being a temple solid while getting her out of some purging ritual beforehand. How about don't ass-fuck her after burrito night or a chili cookoff?

So... you're talking about sex and this came up or you start paving the way during and she stopped you mid act? My wager is you're attempting to negotiate beforehand. I remember back when I was a dumbass and talked about it beforehand and an exceptionally honest woman told me "oh, most guys just go for it". You'll know then without needing much wit.

Oh I'm sure it all adds to it. It's old values meeting new. Old frames over new western ideology. Conflicted + fear = amped up bad behavior. Women who want to be trophy wives but Oprah tells them to also be the coach. I think guys in MODERN arranged marriages in some way think they are getting to skip all of the "problems" associated with western dating culture, and in reality they are just trading them off. Women are probably equally being sold (if it's even a choice either) a bill of goods tha…

Fishing for problems online...clearly shooting fish in a barrel! I'm finding I just keep coming back to simple foundations and concepts on how I live which makes everything else fall in place. It's why it gets waved away. To admit (to oneself or others) it's that simple (which gets incorrectly synonymized with easy) undermines the busy mind we all live in where our brains value complexity. "It MUST be a complex solution for me to be this confused and upset. If it were simple I wouldn't need to b…

When you know yourself: Every interaction between you and someone else is just them showing you how their mind is working. It's interesting. They could even be talking about you. It's still their own mind and perception they are communicating about. And words are just a noise to assess current and historical action or spur a reaction. When you put yourself in a place of knowing yourself you become a knee-jerk observer. Detached. Perceived as some externally as narcissism (inwardly when you just …

I'm starting to see a real pattern with these arranged marriages. You are essentially skipping any and all long term vetting , for her as well, so the women dial up the bitch and shit test to 11 to see how the guy handles it. And all the clueless we see coming here from the far east are the ones that are failing in acting like a man. So the women are PANICKING inside. They have a biologically ingrained FEAR that her parents stuck her with a man who will fail the first time a hungry predator come…

Counseling works 100% opposite to frame control unless you have a male friendly ie not male hostile counselor. And even then, it wont work as it doesn't do a thing for SMV. I'd only go at this point if a judge ordered it. Even without knowing a thing about rp why would someone with an ounce of self respect voluntarily go and give her a platform to lecture? Nope.

It's why your default mode should be sympathy. Caring without owning the emotion. If we are meant to be the rock, we can't absorb it and champion it. We can feel bad for our toddler that they are having a rough patch and throwing tantrums. But the moment we empathize and get angry along-side them we've dipped the toe too far in. I keep toying with a long form post about it, but it's a meta topic that's a bit tough to quantify without getting too far into the weeds. Having sympathy and being able…

You haven't improved enough other areas. You've sprinkled on a little alpha, but this is going to take some sustained, long term you disengaging yourself from a wife not interested in you because of sustained long term patterns of beta behavior. Basics. Up your wardrobe. Up your fitness and eating. Do many many many more things away from her and the house.

My 2 cents.: You are way over-thinking this. A lot of this is just personal preference and also timing (sometimes they enjoy x other times they enjoy y). It's like a restaurant choice. Give a few options, once there if she doesn't order something or is having trouble deciding then you help her pick. IMO unless a chick is seriously mentally damaged she doesn't want to get injured or suffocated for real... common sense. Don't Rambo to prove a point, there is no end game goal of having her spontane…

So the off topic portion: I'm a closed adoption as an infant. Actually had my parents lined up before I popped out. I can only imagine how my life was 1000% better because of them and only think of my adoptive parents as my parents. The other people were just the sperm donors who had the good sense to give me up rather than keep an unwanted baby. RP portion: But as for how you are feeling bad about it. It's really out of your control. It's a natural thing for us to tie our feelings of manliness …

My distillation and grand generalization (beware, as there are occasional outliers for better or for worse and mild overlap): Men have an honor system based on loyalty and time served in regards to truth. In general , men are honest to those loyal to them and who they have investment in. Hands down. Think of your friends you've known forever or who you have shared life changing moments with. Think of those others you look up to. Women have a value based system of perceived worthiness and threat/…

Guys who don't need to prove anything never dance to perform. Never let anyone get you upset about someone or something that doesn't upset you to begin with. Otherwise you're the kid in the video who falls down then gets back up and seems fine. But then notices everyone looking at them and starts crying. You lose control of yourself and hand the ownership of your emotions to someone else and start feeling things other people put there. A few years ago a new neighbor moved in next store and start…

And if you're here looking as a kind of back door assurance from us that you should "it's just tougher". Don't.

Most LDS guys I know are alpha as can be. I'm in a unique situation where my wife is homeschooling our kid and a big part of our co-op is LDS. She remarks on how candidly and openly the women talk about their quite active sex lives. Not only that, with the no drinking or smoking most of the guys are fit as can be with nary an obstacle.

laughing off a rejection is the opposite of getting butthurt. It's a fine line best left to teeter on later. If you successfully (and recently) used it as initiating then that would be a different story. But you really need her to see your needs as less of something to giggle about at the moment.

So when I have started new jobs, I usually end up started getting handed the "difficult" people to work with. Sometimes by luck, but mainly because I volunteer. I've always seen that as an opportunity to build solid relationships and also look good to whoever I report.

In the future, if you can't figure out posting to OWS , post it to askmrp. She wrote me a note last week about "why" she was upset with me and giving me hard nos for sex. How sweet. Chunk in trash when she's not looking. She's writing her frame out since she may be picking up on you getting your own ideas. and joked about sex at least once a day.

who says you should explain a woman's behaviour to her. Patrice said that? He was a comedian, too. So that's a no as it's pointless. The moment you sussed out her returning mood I would have put a kibosh to any further conversation. Either verbally or O.I. I feel like she successfully foisted some of her mood onto you to. You absorbed instead of deflected...since you seem to have had a skirmish over the bed. How would you act if your angry kid told you that you had to sleep in the yard. It'd def…

I dont even want to be around her even though I know this is my fault. This directly translates into "I don't want to be around a constant reminder of my failure." This is you. She is a reflection of you. You can't run from yourself. You can try but you'll always end up being there in the end. This should be your wake up call that you are not even in the right frame of mind and shouldn't trust your feelings about her.

You're fun to be around but it just doesn't fit my idea of someone I have a serious future with."

Sorry wasn't specific, was talking about the fees associated with normally limited mutual fund selections in a 401k. In my own work life I've never run into an employer with a 401k that allowed me to invest in stocks, or etfs. It's great if they are out there.

On track to max 401k by July Do they let you control your investments? And what is max %? 401k investments tend to really get hamstrung by fees. I always maxxed to match employer contribution (free money) and then diverted above that into an IRA where I could control the investments. You may want to look into that or talk to an accountant if you're trying to maximize retirement dollars and diversify.

If you're just curious about the why-women-are-like-that? What you don't get from here, the sidebar books, and sites like Rollos, you may want to look into anthropology books, human biology...etc. I'd steer clear of the present curriculum of psychology and sociology as many works are highly tainted with agenda at the moment.

Men are men. Your feelings of inadequacy are yours to deal with in a manly way and hers in a female way. Your post implies resentment or blame. Neither one of those two work here.

In this case he's actively still spinning your wife as a potential plate while you sit here worrying how to keep her because somehow divorcing a women under 6 months and having no kids will bankrupt you.

If a man is walking the wrong direction to an incorrect destination and hits a fork in the road... it'd be a disservice to tell him to go either direction.

"She used the human flight mechanism to remove herself from the situation, therefore, you've done poorly" Perhaps this time...but not always is a woman walking off or going to slam a door a sign of that. Sometimes it's just passive aggressive stamping of feet.

This technically doesn't sound like a comfort test though which would be along the lines of "I'm just know you're going to leave because I'm such an inadequate ...<fill in the blank>". If you're putting in the talk time, and it's not time to A.A. or A.M. leading or probing questions are a good variant.

Right, let her vent, but that's it. You don't try to fix the vent. Feel out the vent. Get the vent to open up more to let out steam (it comes with it's own relief valve). And you have to watch the meter to make sure that allowance of vent doesn't breach into emotional tampon territory. Trying to be her girlfriend means trying to get into all of the nitty gritty so you end up in the world of words and not action. Aka where her girlfriends fit in.

But, all I can do now is count the days till my I can stand back on my feet. And apparently obsess over little things. Rome wasn't built in a day. The unicorn woman who divests herself of social media wont ween herself cold turkey either. If you're bothered now, it's really going to twist your panties up when she creates her accounts again. She's lying to herself first, and had some sort of mid-year goal she's failing. Give entirely less fucks.

At least she's honest with trying to force compliance through affection withdrawal. STFU. Ignore. A.A., A.M. A beard or not (if you're worried, which you shouldn't be) doesn't make the man, you make the man. And she'll be attracted to, or not to... the man. ...and I'm sure she consults you on her hair styles and choices of clothes.

You can think of frame in several ways. Which also ties into your MAP(male action plan). But a MAP can just be part of your building of your frame.

She's treating it like an unspontaneous task or chore, because your initiation is probably either the same old same old that you always do (hence it's uninspiring, so she's going to prioritize it with the rest of her to-do list) or it's lacking in some other way. If you're wanting or expecting more, you're going to have to put in the effort to inspire it. ie. If you're coming in hot and heavy and she throws some cold water on it, you're either not as hot and heavy as you think or it's time to ig…

A mistake made and learned from is worth a billion words from someone else pleading for prevention. And emotional pain is quite the cement. Although kids can come to stupid conclusions if unguided and cast their guesses in concrete. You have to guide the lesson after the mistakes, but at least if it was painful, it will stick. Take out the jargon (really not difficult as the jargon had to be learned in the first place), ask leading questions to get her to fill in the blanks... you want her to co…

Everyone was different in the past, for better or for worse. If you've moved on, you're the new you. A simple A.A. but no truer response to any dredging of it up by her would be to smile and say "Good thing he's gone" or "Good thing you're not married to THAT guy" Another's perception of you is what you own, when they define you even with light probing.

Learn the art of texting back the occasional symbol. I like the thumbs up. Or, download some funny gifs or images for standard other emotions , like the crying baby... etc. Then use sparingly. Yes, at first, it's a good rule to be logistics only. And treat all tests via email with silence. But after that there's no reason not to use it creatively. I do like the thumbs up though. It's a good "acknowledged but not typing more than that" kind of message. And if it's just babble afterwards it's a go…

Wedding bands are a great thing to look at when you're thinking about marriage. Sure... you could humorously think of them as a cuff or shackle, but humor aside what stands out to me is the circle. A loop. A loop that as long as you have it on, you will need to remember the cycle of repeating patterns a marriage provides.

With 2 cars and no car payments ,only a couple of hundred on average on a credit card if any. What she makes from occasionally working goes to our vacation fund. I make about 57% above MEDIAN household income (which would suck ass trying to live off of) for my city. But consider a lot of those households are single person house…

She has only sent me a picture of her foot. Currently.... that's all you rate to her. Look at it this way: She now is probably pretty cognizant of the fact that you would like a nude. So once you've turned yourself into a better version of yourself... fitness, career, passing shit-tests , garnering hobbies, interests and upping you social circle. The moment you get an unsolicited nude you'll know you've hit a milestone. In the meantime don't ask for another fucking thing from her.

Sometimes her random chit chat would cause me to be dismissive and I could tell I was making her feel belittled which I felt was not fair. Generally you can play this better, but there are always outliers. You don't have to sit there and listen to every thing she has to say with rapt attention. Women do vary in chatter. One of my sister in laws is pretty good looking. Stays skinny . But damn her mouth runs like Niagra Falls and I don't know that it'd balance out. I always joke with my wife that …

Right. SMV is how they judge it, not what we think it is. She clearly thinks she's got a high one. This probably was to validate. Then she "shares" this.

Getting sex no longer becomes the goal. Right. It's the OBVIOUS gaping hole in your marriage. The other intangibles come back with it. Still remains a litmus test of how you doing currently. Essentially the canary in the coal mine. I see common failure path methods to increase sex (the symptom) as only ever (if at all) working. The rote socially acceptable paths. Treat the disease: you. And the symptoms go away and aren't just temporarily suppressed.

If she doesn't realize it, sees a look from you or you turn to go and she stops you to make a point of apologizing or back tracking...gets that she made a mistake. But fir…

He can't possibly be OK or even happy if m'lady is upset or unhappy! He must fix her unhappiness at once or be trapped in despondence. If she throws out this simple test and he responds, he is demonstrating a weak will. That will make her MORE UNHAPPY!

We see this type of question and reasoning a lot. It always comes back to NO. Those that still don't listen... we hear about later. A short answer is: you want her thinking these changes are coming from within. Also inviting her into this world is approval seeking behavior. Totally opposite of what you're trying to accomplish.

That's certainly one way to do it . I knew a guy who found out his wife was cheating and took 10 months playing good husband while he systematically built a case for alimony,primary custody and draining her small trust fund. It was straight out of something like revenge porn. I worked with her. I can't say systematically destroying someone is great karma, but if it had to happen to someone ...once you met her , you wouldn't have felt that bad for her.

I think such an advanced goal of having a DMT like release and trip from meditating can actually hamstring your perceptions of what it can or should accomplish.

One thing they don't teach you in Home-Ec is that wives will frequently (awalt) budget including the husband as an inexhaustible renewable economic resource (HIRER). Good life insurance also means that your expiration will not affect you as a HIRER . You not getting to be able to retire is also of little economic concern unless your retirement will affect the cash flow. Cash flow = all that is important to maintain lifestyle quality and being able to keep up with the neighbors.

"One last round down loser lane? That's actually a good idea, I need to do that,too, before we tie the noose...I mean knot." She's going to do what she's going to do. You, however, don't have to fucking marry her. If you found yourself here before marriage, then you better be sure you have a quality woman before you solidify the deal. If she wants to start playing with hanging herself before you legally commit...then you just feed her rope and see what she does with it. In the meantime if YOU ha…

The longer you play into the fight, the longer it lasts. My wife complains now that any time she wants to "communicate" ie, argue with me for something (usually resource based). I leave. If I stay there and engage with 'verbal' communication then things inevitably get worse. I have to admit, sometimes I don't always want to have to leave so I engage a bit , if she doubles down ( I can tell it's strictly a shit test and aa/am isn't working or I'm actually letting her get to me), then I have to pu…

Negative attitudes can only be slowly brought around if they're going to happen. The good thing with negative friends is you can just slow fade them. Or with family just limit exposure. The brother or sister you see on holidays if at all. If the negativity is new , it's a good sign it's malleable. Worst case scenarios you can't get them to shake it and you have to bail. But you start treating the behaviors like the friends you could cut out. It really does break down to training terms. Reward po…

Now she's 3 kids in and 20 + years married. From my observation when she's around she's the captain and he always defers to her. Everything he does (up to owning his dojo) appears to be "because she allows it". It severely impacts my ability to take him seriously when he's lecturing the class about something…

Definitely fight all urges to do anything the way you would have pre-rp. Remember stfu. Less words more action. You see a resurgence of resistance every once in a while even after dramatic improvement. I chalk it up to getting too familiar with the new things. It's when you know it's time to change things up.

Life can be looked at as a comedy of errors. This time you supplied the punchline. Laugh at what happened. Next time request alternate release...or if you're up for it, just start right next to her. I'd highly recommend mixing in some meditation to your routine if you haven't already. Or yoga for flexibility (but also helps to calm you so you're not prone to ... go off half(self)-cockkkkked).

Yisssssss Stop being who others have categorized you as. Even if that means your own ego.

IMO Scheduled nookie is perilous and totally not rp. Not unless you make the schedule that second for that minute. Sets up something you should be doing spontaneously and freer as a bartering chip, defined chore and currency. All things to avoid. I go so far as to not even hint that it's time until it's time. The more setup my wife gets , the more shit tests and lmr she has to think up. It's either do or don't in the hizzy. And, like the rest have hit on...STFU.

We all have varying levels of stamina when it comes to what battles we're wanting to take on at the same time. Not everything you want to change requires talk or a direct address. If you're feeling overwhelmed by all of this, are finding that implementing all at once or even moving enough steps in the right direction is causing you to juggle to distraction then start implementing tools of slow fade, postponement and "sucking at it".

Moderation is always the key. I feel like any leisure activity is good/not good based on if it's interfering with anything. Before everyone had a console and CoD the act itself was seen as a bit poindextery by I think that stigma has lessened tremendously. I see it as an "escapist" flavor of leisure (reading a book, watching TV solo). So that can seem to have more negative impact if not self-policed.

Definitely what she wanted to do. She used to do crossfit and started yoga (I think) as a kind of counter balance. She crossfitted her c4 (or maybe c5) into a bulging disc. So after a lot of PT , she's a lot smarter about how she throws herself around (she was like 5,5 125 throwing around a 30 lb kettlebell) and yoga has seemed to appeal to her on many levels. And like any exercise program I've seen her do: she doesn't do it just a little, she turns fanatical and turns it into a self-identifier …

I say it's counter productive to NOT have a social life outside of your marriage. For both sexes. I do martial arts as well, have a standing guys night every week for the cigar club, and then we mix/vary it up. The wife is a yoga mom so she's got at least 4-5 classes, does pta, hangs out with chicks from both outside of that. So it works from a rp standpoint and it works IN GENERAL from a life standpoint.

Your lawyer already told you all you need to know about this claim. If her lawyer supports her, then they have a lot of fucking nothing to go on don't they?

"OK" Is a good response. It says a lot. It says a little. Since she's painting an abstract art piece then your "OK" is your abstract minimalism that she can interpret in whatever way fits.

When you start to get that drop off, it's a good indicator to take a step back. It's really easy to get so excited you forget to break once in a while.

One Friday I got 3 hours of sleep the night before. We were coming off of shark week and I was jonesing for rogering. I announced to my wife I was drinking Turkish Coffee in order to be wide awake for festivities after the kid went to bed that night. She's familiar with the term covert contract (hates it because I call her on it when she does it). I acted like a town crier Hear Ye Hear Ye (tongue in cheek) "LISTEN TO MY OVERT CONTRACT. I'M DRINKING THIS NOW BECAUSE WE'RE DOING IT LATER!"

She wants wrestle sex. Learn to wrestle. You know the old addage people are generally bad gift givers because we tend to give out what we would really like if the present was for us? Well , I'd take it she's doing that to you. Up to my wife I've never thought of any kind of choke play as anything sane or normal. She occasionally really responds to it. There's plenty of mildly crazy shit you can ease into to gauge responses along the way. She's probably eased off because she sees you being creamp…

The marriage culture sucks for men on a lot of fronts due to the legal liability we face as men that has been creeping up in ridiculous proportions over the years. With that in mind, and for the protection of my sons I would advise them the same. However I think a lot of things in society swing like a pendulum, I >hope< this changes over time making the prospect of a marriage not quite so unsavory. Chances are still good at some point your sons may marry no matter what you advise. I'd make sure …

owning your shit thread. I think that's the fundamental problem and clear distinction with a lot of those that end up there. They don't want to own their shit. They want change AND to be blameless. ie. NOT AWALT, you just got a bad egg, kiddo. Psssshaw, she only acted nice at the beginning to entrap you. It has nothing to do with you devolving into a sad sack with a dad bod. Right.

These places make me ill to my stomach. Them: We're not going to tell you anything new, just the same old crap that doesn't work...and if it doesn't work you should just learn to be ok with it. A nice life isn't for you. You just need to learn to make others happy. Screw if it comes at a cost to your self worth. RP? Oh...but don't listen to those guys. It only works because it's MANipulation. It's icky. It may work, but if it works it's just because...abuse. Their s/o's aren't happy. even if the…

/u/whinemoreplease comment is really the only answer. Anecdotally and me personally? I treat crazy like crazy. I worked in a mental institution for about 8 months. I give them wide berth. Explicit instructions if I need something. Repeat if necessary through the crazy. Keep eyes open for more acts of crazy, and otherwise continue about my day. she doesn't really ever shit test yet let me outline this shit test. Hamsters gonna ham.

Yepperz. And maybe have something in mind (quip) but, imo sometimes just a mischevious playful attitude is more important when initiating handys than having the right thing to say.

Also: don't forget: She may have done this because she was bored. Women will stir up some drama in absence of it sometimes just to alleviate the boredom. If you've been on a new path, yet now predictable path...maybe vary it up.

There is no shortage of A&A I can think of for handys. Talk about a golden opportunity. You're right, I'm injured. I need a nurse. A naughty one. Unless a piece of me has a cast on it, it's game for play. My injury is spreading to my brain where all the baby batter is backing up. I need immediate pressure relief before I blow a gasket. Was just watching little house on the prairie. Mom Engle started milking a cow and it gave me an idea... Nothing can make you feel less manly than getting injured…

but wife hasn't even offered to help me out Why are you waiting for an offer? You need to expect to initiate any sexual act whether it's full on or just a handy. Adjust that. Tell her to save up some arm strength for tonight. Or better yet, next time you two are together and the time is right just initiate. Also side note: fat=diet, if I knew I'd be ooc on exercise I'd start changing my diet to avoid swell.

and? That may have been one of the thoughts that's been going through her head. Based on her response though I think it was more of a "are we divorcing or not" zit-popping, and she couldn't handle not knowing. Even if all his previous words indicated all was normal, she was reading his actions of O.I. differently.

So , could have been a culmination comfort test (seeing as how she changed once you stated explicitly you weren't going anywhere). She probably had her hamster in full spin on whether you gearing up for it or not and just decided to rip off the band-aid to see what was underneath. She had finally no clue as to which way the wind was blowing. IMO they may, at these massive turning points pull a massive comfort test like this, or a massive shit test to see if there's any chance they continue to we…

All of it together pushes it into joke land for me. Individually all of the key pieces fit into a typical moment or two of bb land, though. Still. Never say never, if a guy did do all of this, in this exact manner, it would be no wonder to anyone familiar with MMSLP, WISNIFG, NMMNG, RP & MRP why that dudes spanking to a catalog.

And don't say anything about the sex. Just keep your mouth shut and pretend it didn't happen. Then try it again soon. Absolutely. If you (op) is wanting to, that's some beta shit creeping up on you (at a time like this). Note it, push it down, and continue about your day. If you two were going at it like Jack Rabbits all the time , nothing wrong with an observation about a session, but in this time period it'd come across weak.

Update: she talked to her coworker and turns out he was trying to text his wife with a similar name to hers but accidentally sent to her instead and she could not find the text yesterday because her phone has been acting funny Yeah, that makes total sense after pretending the text didn't exist. And now does exist because she thinks she has a load of shit you'll buy. How's that shit sandwich taste? Next or plate. If anything I'd get a nice feeling from just plating her... if and only if she'll dr…

Here's a question you need to ask yourself and answer honestly: If you could have magically sprung a boner to head back in for round two, would this shit have flown out of your mouth or would you just have gone back to town? As I got up to take a shower she turns to me. "Where are you going?" "I'm taking a shower" I replied with a smile. "I diden't come" she replied, getting quiet for a second before adding on. "Well, lets go again." I find if I stay in the bed, keep messing around with her, my …

This is a dip-shitty question. And now you've reached your puke limit. You sound like a ranting teenager. In my head I hear a large whale of a blue haired bp female troll speaking in Contralto mimicking their world view of RP MALEZ. I'm labeling this as a BP example as I think it's more that than puke at this point. I have no idea if you're a troll or not. Because yes, I have a dipshit of a relative who thinks a lot like you and would probably consider himself a reaal maaaan, but go read. Do som…

Next time you see her say "Boo!". Have your neighbor dress like you for Halloween. Stop carrying a chainsaw with you when you go ask for sugar. Wear a really crazy Hawaiian shirt next time you'll be in her presence. If asked why say you're trying to cultivate a less "dangerous" air. Then he'll get into an argument with her. Then he avoids me for a couple days, comes over and brings me a beer and we're good. He's not passing shit tests. You just happen to be a catalyst. If I ever see a wife henpe…

It's tough to let go of resentment about the past wasteland. I have no fucking clue as to how I have. What I have a tough time letting go of is bad money /life path decisions I made because of pressure from whatever female I was with at the time. The no sex? For some reason I'm totally solvent with the fact it was all me emotionally and mentally. At one point in my life I wanted to be a cop. Female pressure = nope. Thought I might take it to the FBI level then after college. Female pressure = no…

Now you just know how to steer things better and you've leveled the playing field a bit. She has a crush? BFD. Women think lots of crazy shit they never act on. Work on you and she'll soon lose her focus on Johnny Outofreach. Or not. You leave chicks for cheating on you (well I would anyway). Let her fantasize a way so long as it'…

Yep. I'm sure this one is sobering to many. If a guy really grasps this it'll help him let go of a lot of shit outside his area of control anyway. Be the best you can be and the rest'll take care of itself. And if it doesn't in the way that you wanted then you adapt and move along. Life's a fucking parade of people coming and going.

Hey, is she competitive with her sisters though? They'd be good ones for overtly seeking platonic feels from since you already seem to be able to complain to them. I'm not saying go out of your way to spend time with them, but when they're around try to elicit some of that womanliness from them. Don't do it by continuing to complain about the wife to them. That's over. All the better when it's right in front of her. Work with a lady who's kind of a mommy? See if you can get her to cook you somet…
