1	Help. Just starting the MRP journey. Need advice. I'm not analyzing his wife - I'm trying to figure out how good a read he has on her	/r/askMRP	04/01/20 12:08 AM
3	Help. Just starting the MRP journey. Need advice. I'm trying to reconcile "wife is a total SJW feminist" with wife texting you "pray so that God can help you understand that your principle [sic] responsibility is to protect your children and wife over all things."	/r/askMRP	03/01/20 10:25 PM
1	Dancing lessons - invite wife or not? Good advice, thanks for taking the time. I replied elsewhere that this wasn't intended as dread, it's just something I want to do for me. I agree that pursuing it right now is not a good plan b/c I'm totally out of shape. Time-wise it would also get in the way of some more pressing things in my MAP so I'm thinking in about 4 months or so. I will be lifting much more by then, too.	/r/askMRP	31/12/19 11:46 PM
1	Dancing lessons - invite wife or not? LOL - totally right on that about being a weakling. Thanks for sharing your experience, that's the kind of insight I was hoping for with this post.	/r/askMRP	31/12/19 11:42 PM
1	Dancing lessons - invite wife or not? Dread is not my intent - way too early for that. I appreciate that link. As much as I'm trying to devour the sidebar, I haven't hit everything yet.	/r/askMRP	31/12/19 11:41 PM
1	Dancing lessons - invite wife or not? Not my intent - just how it might be perceived.	/r/askMRP	31/12/19 11:40 PM
1	Dancing lessons - invite wife or not? My point is I don't want to do this for dread reasons. It's just something I want to do. So I'm trying to keep it dread free. Also see my reply above. I did bungle my bio by not including reading and the fact that those weights are just where I am in Stronglifts right now, not maxes.	/r/askMRP	31/12/19 11:39 PM
1	Dancing lessons - invite wife or not? I can see how linking to my OYS, instead of listing out my CV, gave an incomplete picture. I've done a bunch of sidebar reading. Completed: NMMNG WISNIFG MMSLP TRM Poon Pook (50%); working on MAP (reading) TWOTSM (audiobook). You're also right about the lifting. I'm on the Stronglifts regimen and love it. Those numbers aren't maxes, they're just where I am right now.	/r/askMRP	31/12/19 11:35 PM

2	Own Your Shit Weekly - December 24, 2019 Yeah that's what I mean by "information overload". It's just how I process/read stuff. When it's different perspectives on a single overall topic, I just blast through obsessively and my mind starts to build a big picture. I read one thing in one book that reminds me of something I read in another, and it all starts to link up. But I couldn't cite specifics out of any of the stuff I've read, not like the vets here. I'll go back through everything a second, third time and take notes and/or do inc…	/r/MarriedRedPill	26/12/19 10:14 PM
2	Own Your Shit Weekly - December 24, 2019 OYS#1 46yo 6'0" 192lbs ~24% BF. Classic skinnyfat dad bod. Wife 45yo, married 21yrs, kids 16(m) 10(m) This Journey Began around the 20th of November when I stumbled across MRP when looking for totally Beta “solutions” to my marital problems. I ended up staying up all night plowing through sidebar material and checking out related material like TRM. Even though there were differences in individual philosophies, there’s lockstep consensus on “start lifting” so I found a local gym and signed up bef…	/r/MarriedRedPill	24/12/19 10:48 PM
2	What was the best way to handle this? You failed by leaving... Thanks for the pure gold scenario layout. As I was reading the paragraph I thought "well what next smart guy - oh wait you thought of that" and then did that again at your next paragraph. Because that's exactly how it goes with her, she is tenacious. Damn, she's good at this. Are you sure your wife's not reading NMMNG too? Well she's got a counseling degree and background. At risk of sounding like I think I'm some sort of snowflake with a unique problem, I gotta tell y'a…	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 11:05 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? This was an activity they were getting ready to attend together. Not her dropping him off at a thing; they were going to be co-participants. So when we have things like then prep is part of the activity together unless help is requested like here. I don't find that to be beta, but tell me if I'm off base. It's just a smart division of labor in my book that works pretty well for our household. Like if I'm taking one or both sons camping, I'm helping them pack if they need it; wife stays out of it…	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:57 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? Appreciate both the comments. I know we did this ages ago (the criticism = task ownership policy) but that was me without a frame, so it didn't stay enforced. No harm in bringing that back into play now that I have a better footing.	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:54 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? the "do not disrespect me..." rant is gay, demonstrates uncertainty. Totally gay, agreed. At the time it seemed like speaking clearly, without anger but with conviction and clarity, was a small step forward. But without teeth, yeah, it doesn't mean shit. Wait - did you really just delete your account? Am I talking to myself?	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:50 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? I don't either. Sweetest girl when I met her. Outgoing and assertive to be sure, but just a delight in all her interactions. I accept that where she is now is my fault. But as far as the totality of who she now is, a lot of those seeds were planted before I ever knew her. My brothers-in-law and 2 ex-BIL's and I have often discussed these traits common to my wife and her sisters.	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:45 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? Engineering training. I can't conceive of writing out a description of an event without a full "troubleshoot" approach.	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:40 PM
2	What was the best way to handle this? I'll admit it's possible. I've been trying to watch that since discovering MRP and starting to put the work in. More accurately, I've been monitoring that my interactions with my sons is authentic (true to myself) and positive (encouraging to them). If she finds fault with that then oh well.	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:39 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? Yeah I think that's where I arrived at with this. Standing up and leaving due to two completely different mindsets looks exactly the same. So part of it is that whole "man if only she knew that I'm processing this differently" while still S'ing TFU. It's a real mind fuck for me at this point.	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:37 PM
1	What was the best way to handle this? He's an admitted weak faggot with 2 decades of being asleep at the wheel in a relationship with a ball-busting, pee-standing-up wife who is probably dominant by personality. All correct. And there's no "probably" about it, she is one of the most assertive people I've ever met, male or female. The stuff of legend in these parts. This guy needs to STFU, lift, and sidebar for another six months at least before he does some of what the top poster mentioned. Ultimately I know that's what this comes d…	/r/askMRP	23/12/19 10:31 PM
6	What was the best way to handle this? Thanks for all this. Want to clarify that I am not surprised/disappointed by the outcome given my 20+ years of beta behavior. But right now I'm on a bit of information overload, this shit isn't coming from first principles yet, just wondered how more seasoned eyes could recommend a different approach.	/r/askMRP	21/12/19 05:11 PM
2	What was the best way to handle this? Fair question. Like anything else in life, I can only say "highly certain based on past behavior". The context is that she stopped readying herself - the pretext for why I was stepping in to help - to have a no-do-it-my-way moment. And FWIW we weren't struggling.	/r/askMRP	21/12/19 05:08 PM
4	What was the best way to handle this? I lol'd when I read this b/c having written it all out I thought the same thing right before I hit "post". But I posted anyways b/c I need to take some shit. Thanks for this.	/r/askMRP	21/12/19 05:05 PM
