I'm happy with myself for sticking with it the past year, and I think I've struck a good balance between pushing progress but also being careful not to be dumb - I'd rather make incremental progress than get injured and not be able to workout.

| 7 | what this Subreddit should beAgree with this. I've posted before and gotten good feedback. Got dunked on a little too, but fine, I probably deserved it. Most of the posts on this sub are even beyond retarded, or the OP is so lost they truly need a wake up call.

| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - January 13, 2026Discipline and consistency. I think committing to OYS every week is a good start to hold myself accountable, as well as staying on track with lifting. I think making sure I completely understand what it is I truly want out of life, and what behaviors I want to model. Often people do not change or stick to new habits, because deep down they are either afraid or do not actually want to change themselves. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 15/01/26 03:30 PM |

Now we're covered up in kids and domestic shit, and pushing it when "too tired" or "not in the mood" often or usually results in something like: what the hell, do you not understand - I said I'm too tired.

To me, this is the essential point and something I'm learning through my own experience and watching others fail, too.

I'm sure you know that most of the activity and feedback you would get happens on Tuesday, so why don't you get yours in earlier. I can think of a few reasons, but it's not something you need to answer to me, but for yourself, as it may be reflective of your general M.O. beyond just OYS. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 04/09/25 04:50 PM |

| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - June 24, 202510-4. Appreciate the explanation. I'd be lying if I said I had the balls to tell her to "fuck off", but I could probably give her a look that conveys it. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 03/07/25 03:09 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - June 24, 2025Ok - understood on the verbal intercourse and the ego/backpedaling, but can you explain more what you mean here: Your bullshit way of writing that sentence is weak dogshit Why is it weak dogshit to point out or own up to the increase in arguments, or what is it about the way I wrote it? It may be something completely obvious to you that is not yet to me. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 03/07/25 02:24 PM |

| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - July 01, 2025Sex/Relationship Not a lot to report over the past week. Three lays, three rejections, including last night when I was told that I was treating her like a blowup doll for suggesting a bj/hj after the ‘No’. I mimicked blowing into a nozzle on the side of her stomach, but regret that I didn’t come up with something better to do/say in the moment. Ongoing Closet Test/Stalemate: We moved into our house in November; we have a big walk-in master closet. Everything was okay organization-wise until a fe… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/07/25 09:10 PM |

| 1 | Women talking badly about their boyfriends/husbands?In my opinion, women are actually attracted to it. Right. Nothing gets women wetter than a guy acting like a fidgety squirrel. It's what plants women crave. | /r/askMRP | 02/07/25 05:04 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - June 24, 2025“Fights” was a bad choice of words b/c for the most part I’m not engaging. Testing me, getting upset with me, silent treatment, etc would be more accurate. But, I am still defaulting to DEER on occasion, so that Verbal Intercourse post would be good for me to re-read. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 01/07/25 11:53 AM |
| 4 | FR / STFU failure“Brother, brother, brother…” ..man this is a painful post. The whole thing where you got mad that your wife was naked and asking you to warm her up is killing me in particular. I recently came across this Spotify playlist called “Marvin Gaye’s Clueless Ass” – aptly named because so many of his songs are questions: What’s Going On?, What’s Happening Brother?, When Did You Stop Loving Me? Looking at your history of posts, it’s like a Marvin Gaye playlist, you seem to ask others for guidance on eve… | /r/askMRP | 30/06/25 07:29 PM |

| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - June 24, 2025Sex/Relationship I came to MRP as most do because my sex frequency was on the decline, getting close to only once every couple weeks, and have discovered that I’ve operated in beta/nice guy mode for most of my relationships. Since MRP, frequency has gotten back up to around twice a week, but my desire is probably closer to 5 times per week. But really I want to get beyond a number, drop the scoreboard and just know that I can get it when I want it. I’m definitely relating to the Bad Dread phase,… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 27/06/25 09:03 PM |

| 3 | Is this "anxious wife", tough times, or uninterested woman?Yeah, it's a good post - good analogy with the bonus of FG references woven in. Also appreciate the fact that you come across as genuinely wanting to see guys get through their storms and harvest the shrimp on the other side of it. | /r/askMRP | 26/06/25 03:36 PM |

| 14 | Whats the most raw, honest way to get up after being cheated on?You’re 29 and you avoided moving in and getting married to someone that clearly isn’t into you. Do you even realize what a blessing that is?? Time is on your side. You clearly suck now but you have time to work on yourself. Go read MRP sidebar and get to work. | /r/askMRP | 19/06/25 06:18 PM |
| 5 | How to get better at STFU?You need to read more sidebar content on STFU. STFU is like the gutter guards on the bowling lane. It’s to keep you from rolling gutter balls- DEERIng, whining, stepping on your dick- things that make you unattractive. When you get more attractive and can naturally avoid acting unattractive, you take the guardrails off. It’s there for your protection. Guys that don’t need to STFU don’t ask questions about STFU. | /r/askMRP | 11/06/25 03:31 AM |
| 2 | "I'm too tired"Entitlement…yes, I think this is fair and if I’m being totally honest with myself I probably had some feelings of entitlement. I’m realizing that I and other guys just getting started, we are actually more retarded right now than pre-MRP. We’re putting in work and consciously or subconsciously feeling like we deserve rewards that we haven’t earned yet through the right changes in attitude and behavior. | /r/askMRP | 20/05/25 05:59 PM |
| 1 | "I'm too tired"Good reminder. I've been able to do this successfully at times, but it's not yet my default setting. | /r/askMRP | 20/05/25 04:09 PM |
| 1 | "I'm too tired"This is great info, definitely taking note of it. Truly appreciate it | /r/askMRP | 20/05/25 12:09 PM |
| 2 | "I'm too tired"How is that her fault? No, it's not her fault and I didn't intend it that way. I'm fully blaming myself and recognizing I haven't progressed to a point where these situations don't happen. She's prob sad because she's coming to terms with the fact she's married to a bonehead. Could be the case, I'll give you that. | /r/askMRP | 19/05/25 09:24 PM |
| 3 | "I'm too tired"Why do you still have so much energy at the end of the night if you spent "all day getting shit done" Well fuck, man -it's not like I was digging ditches... But I hear you on the rest, I should've pushed the point more earlier instead of banking for later. | /r/askMRP | 19/05/25 09:20 PM |
| 1 | "I'm too tired"Yeah - I suppose the truth of it hurts now, but hope to be on the other side of it soon and get to "it's amazing" | /r/askMRP | 19/05/25 09:07 PM |

| 7 | Sex Drive Surge in Marriage: Is It Muscle or Mindset related?What’s the Number 1 rule?! 1. Be Attractive (physique, “muscle”) 2. Don’t Be Unattractive (mindset) Read the beginner shit on MRP sidebar and don’t try to skip steps or do one and not the other. | /r/askMRP | 14/05/25 03:37 PM |
| 1 | Is it is a covert contract if I have outcome independence?Let’s put it in a context the OP can better relate to… OP, when you use the gloryhole in the men’s room, do you care what happens? If someone decides to just smear toilet doo doo on your cock instead of sucking it, are you cool with that? If not, Sidebar please. | /r/askMRP | 09/05/25 11:42 PM |
| 16 | Premenopausal WifeEven as a banned, bottom-rung Noob I can easily see why this post was removed from MRP. You're blaming this situation on your wife's cycle instead of owning up to your weak character and lack of family leadership that has allowed an atmosphere where a small task like combing hair results in meltdowns by everyone in your household. | /r/askMRP | 08/05/25 05:47 PM |
| 1 | Rule 9 bans?Good question - I'll say the latter. I don't want to be aligned with the guy feeling like he has to defend and explain himself to anonymous dudes on the internet. I fully expected (and wanted) to get feedback and criticism, even brutal criticism on my OYS, but I didn't expect the ban, then the subsequent permaban, both of which put me on the defensive. It's a disappointment, but not a setback b/c I can still do the work, read the MRP sidebar, read and learn from other's posts, ask the dumb quest… | /r/askMRP | 07/05/25 02:56 PM |
| 3 | Rule 9 bans?Who said anything about 14 days?? Yeah, I put out a shitty OYS. Yeah, I'm likely walking around right now more retarded than pre-MRP. Yeah, I wanted to find out why a 180-day ban for me vs. 30 days, 14 days, whatever for others for the same violation - so I went to this sub, as it was indicated as a safe harbor to ask these questions. But fuck it, I'll do the shit on the sidelines. "Fuck it, we'll do it live!!" | /r/askMRP | 06/05/25 12:17 PM |
| 8 | Rule 9 bans?Wait, aren’t you the “intermediate- advanced” guy?? | /r/askMRP | 05/05/25 07:40 PM |
| 1 | Rule 9 bans?Thanks- good insight. 30 days seems reasonable for a first offense; 180 seems excessive, but I’ll deal with it and just keep lifting, learning and STFU until I’m past the ban and have some good growth to report. | /r/askMRP | 05/05/25 06:25 PM |

| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - April 29, 2025Pivotal Moment: A couple weeks back I experienced a sexual rejection, tried to play it off like no big deal, but clearly my face read butthurt. Later discussion before bed we discussed and was met with "I'm sorry I'm not in the mood, but you seemed upset". I explained I was fine, but it wasn't taken well (likely b/c I'd been working on not reacting to rejections over the past couple weeks). I said I don't care, I don't want it if you don't, making her further upset, and then called her out on th… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 01/05/25 03:38 PM |
