| 1 | I've disowned my daughterThe suggestion does come off as a bit tinfoil hat-ish, but the meat of what the author is discussing is pretty well grounded. I just finished watching this talk given by the author of the book BPP suggested and he contextualizes the notion a bit more clearly: http://www.c-span.org/video/?328857-1/book-discussion-takedown | /r/MarriedRedPill | 19/07/16 04:50 PM |
| 1 | I've disowned my daughterThis is sad how they have deliberately destroyed the family. All i can assure you is that this was the plan from the beginning. To what end, though? | /r/MarriedRedPill | 19/07/16 02:04 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016This makes a lot of sense. Truth is, I'm not strong enough yet, but I'll get there. Thanks. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 27/05/16 03:33 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016That's fair. I've been getting a lot of conflicting advice on how best to handle it, however. On one end, I'm told to internalize IDGAF and continue improving myself until I'm in a better position to issue an ultimatum (I'm improving, but personally I'm still a huge mess). On the other, I'm told to lay down the law pretty bluntly and show her the door if she doesn't get in line. Two tough options and me stuck in the middle with two sons who I don't want to see grow up with split parents who coul… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 27/05/16 03:02 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016There's been no physical contact and he lives a few states away. I've gone into detail about the situation quite a bit in past threads. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 27/05/16 02:30 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016I'm confused. This contradicts earlier advice that you gave me via PM: The advice is the same in private as on the boards. Confronting your wife about her emotional affair? Is that DNGAF? The only time you would do that is at level 10 dread (aka Athol Kay's level 5 ultimatum). You are NOT ready to "confront" your wife about anything. Thus the advice of STFU and work on yourself. "Confronting" your wife at this stage makes you out to be a whiny, needy bitch. Don't do it. I think your best bet now… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 27/05/16 01:54 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016I'm just over eight months. How long did yours last? Was there any one specific thought that finally pushed you beyond it? | /r/MarriedRedPill | 24/05/16 09:36 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016I rarely use social media anymore. My paranoia over her interactions with this guy is what I need to get over. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 24/05/16 07:08 PM |
| 3 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 24, 2016This past week was better. My awareness of what I’m doing at any given moment is increasing, but I’ve still got a long way to go. Following up from my last OYS post and the advice I received, I’m only going to include the areas that have changed: Fitness - I got a late start in the week, but I’m finally hitting the gym again like I should be. DOMS is currently kicking my ass for letting this fall wayside in the first place, and that’s all the more motivating for me to never let it happen again. … | /r/MarriedRedPill | 24/05/16 02:43 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 17, 2016Update from last week. I’m still not owning my shit in any way, except perhaps in my awareness of such. I’m letting my frustration from my lack of control over the situation, my resentment towards my wife, and my insecurity and depression crush my mood and dictate my behavior. My confidence and self-esteem have hit rock bottom, but I’m not doing any of the things I could be doing to start to turn that around. Parenting - I’m trying to become more aware in each moment of how I interact with my ki… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 18/05/16 03:16 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 10, 2016Seconding this, with examples if possible. Differentiating between a reasonable argument and a logical argument is a distinction that I definitely struggle with. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 12/05/16 07:21 PM |
| 1 | Own Your Shit Weekly - May 10, 2016Note: I found TRP / MRP around eight months ago after learning that my wife wanted a divorce. I read through most of the material and started asserting myself more, but got emotionally burned out and fell into a depressed, angry slump. Being less of a useless sack of shit at home has kept things together somehow (wife still living at home, though no longer wearing wedding ring), but I’m not owning my shit anywhere near the level that I need to be. So here goes: Shit I Am Owning Not a goddamned t… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 10/05/16 03:13 PM |
| 2 | The Price of NiceNice Guys are just another version of a woman. They aren't women, but pretty close to it. They are manipulative (covert contracts). They engage in psychological warfare (whiny bitches). They don't care about the journey, only the outcome (just like women!). Rather than fix themselves they would rather place the blame on everybody around them (just like women!). This description is a near dead-ringer for the symptoms of covert narcissism. There seems to be a growing trend of wives, particularly o… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 21/03/16 02:03 PM |
| 1 | [FR] Overturned my chess board, victim puked, and generally ruined all my progress. Happy New Year!Nah, the drinking was after. I rarely get drunk, and when I do, I normally fall asleep soon after. If anything, getting drunk allowed us to revert back to being friendly again for the rest of the night. | /r/askMRP | 02/01/16 09:13 PM |
| 2 | [FR] Overturned my chess board, victim puked, and generally ruined all my progress. Happy New Year!Thanks for this, professor. My MAP needs work, I'm still struggling with identifying exactly how to move my life / our lives forward. If she's shit testing me, it seems really unorthodox. What sets me off is her complete silence / indifference, or her trite dismissiveness. She doesn't care and is as cold as ice. I read that "the opposite of love isn't hate, it's apathy", and I feel as though I'm dealing with that currently. As an aside, do you have any advice for not being the "ever-present body… | /r/askMRP | 02/01/16 08:09 PM |
| 1 | Field Report: Sex isn't the problem anymore.This is invaluable, thank you. I'm steadily digesting and adapting the sidebar material into my life (which I was pretty close to, back in the day), but given your experience, do you have any additional / specific advice for how I should handle things moving forward? | /r/askMRP | 30/11/15 02:32 PM |
| 1 | Field Report: Sex isn't the problem anymore.She isn't threatening to leave for him and still swears up-and-down that they're 'just friends' and he's like a 'brother'. The only thing she's ever said on the subject is "the only reason I'd ever leave you is because of you, not someone else." | /r/askMRP | 25/11/15 11:11 PM |
| 1 | Received novel of a text at work. Might not be the Main Event, but yikes.Mostly issues involving her having time to pursue ways of earning supplemental income at home, possibly finding work as well. Also issues with her being isolated as we recently had to move several states away from our family and friends -- it's certainly been rough for me too, I'm just actually doing something (read: not whining) about it. There's also the "you're controlling" thread that keeps comes up -- often enough that I'm not sure if it's a shit test or a valid concern, and I want to press… | /r/askMRP | 09/11/15 10:08 PM |
| 2 | Received novel of a text at work. Might not be the Main Event, but yikes.It's really weirdly out of nowhere too, especially considering we've been having more sex over the past month than we've had in the past two years. | /r/askMRP | 09/11/15 09:52 PM |
| 1 | [FR] Sex is back on the table, but there's still a long way to go.Thanks for the encouragement. Out of curiosity, on the flipside I've caught my wife recently reading articles on how to "sabotage a relationship and get your partner to leave". Getting me to leave is obviously the easiest way for her to avoid any responsibility (whatever), but my thinking is that it kind of screws with the effectiveness of Dread. Any advice? | /r/askMRP | 27/10/15 05:26 PM |
| 1 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.During my reading, I went through the "Women's Infidelity" books that I saw linked in a few threads on MRP. The similarity between what I read and her behavior is staggering. I'd be tempted to give her copies of the books if I weren't so sure it wouldn't do jack shit. | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 03:55 PM |
| 1 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.So what's the action plan from here? I've read MMSL but I'm still sketchy on how to handle this. Do I ignore it? Do I put my foot down? | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 03:42 PM |
| 1 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.I'm trying, but she's completely clammed up. She sits on her computer all day, either on social media, watching videos, or talking to her guy friend. Is her silence a shit test? | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 03:28 PM |
| 1 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.Clicked that link, thought I stumbled in to /r/circlejerk for a second. | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 03:16 PM |
| 1 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.Paying for alimony is one of my big worries here. I'm going to need to pay for daycare to maintain my career and I simply can't do that if I'm paying for her lifestyle after she leaves. | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 03:12 PM |
| 1 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.It's more than just emotional talk, though. It's sexual. He lives very far away, thankfully, but if he didn't then she'd probably be sneaking out to fuck him by now. | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 03:11 PM |
| 2 | My wife wants a divorce and I think it may be unsalvageable. I get one 'victim puke' thread on this sub, right? Here goes.I've lost twenty pounds and I'm practicing guitar again. | /r/askMRP | 01/10/15 01:47 PM |
| 1 | Shit test or just me being an idiot? How could I have handled this better?Working on it. Got my guitar repaired, continuing to work out and improve myself, and keeping my mouth shut more while I marginalize her importance in my life. Shifting gears, she just dropped an obvious but unorthodox shit test on me. So far, we've kept our marital issues private from all but a few people, but she just announced it in a round-about way ~ as an answer on some bullshit chain-survey on Facebook. I worry about how a lot of our mutual friends will react, but my gut feeling is to jus… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 26/09/15 05:51 PM |
| 1 | Shit test or just me being an idiot? How could I have handled this better?Right around the time when I started looking at TRP, my wife took a hard stance that she felt uncomfortable talking about / having sex with me and wanted it "off the table for now". Like an idiot, I was comforting to her and agreed. Should I just roll with it for now while I work on the fundamentals or do you have a suggestion for how I could recant my position on this? | /r/MarriedRedPill | 24/09/15 02:58 PM |
| 1 | Shit test or just me being an idiot? How could I have handled this better?I do. Weirdly, this is the time when she should be the most receptive towards my advances. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 23/09/15 03:55 PM |
| 4 | Shit test or just me being an idiot? How could I have handled this better?He should have shrugged off her dismissal and gone about his own way regardless instead of letting himself get drawn into a pointless fight. He should stop living in her frame and start establishing his own. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 23/09/15 02:52 PM |
| 3 | Wife feels trapped, manipulated, drained. Addressing concerns and avoiding distractions while running The MAP?Is it a power play even if her stated goal is to leave? | /r/MarriedRedPill | 09/09/15 08:17 PM |
| 2 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.I've started all of those. Going to the gym has really given me a sense of forward momentum and it's been a really good stress reliever. I'm still undecided on if I want to try and save the marriage or not. I've cut off my emotional attention, but what about sex? Since the announcement that she was leaving, we've had sex twice which, for our dry well of a sex life, is something worth mentioning. Once before the fight (it really good, weirdly), once after (meh). I've initiated both times. Should … | /r/askTRP | 02/09/15 03:45 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.Her change in attitude has already started to show in small ways. For example, she's taking cues from my behavior on spending time with our kids and on doing various tasks around the house. I don't think our home has ever been so clean. But you're right that she's uneasy. She's still being incredibly reclusive. I'm not sure she knows how to process my new behavior yet. It's just way too early to draw any sort of meaningful conclusion. One thing is for certain though; I'm improving myself for my … | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 02:30 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.I'm about half-way through MMSLP and it's fantastic. Genuinely eye-opening stuff. As for her friend, he lives a few states away and their contact is strictly through instant messenger / facebook. I'm not sure how to address it other than to avoid seeming jealous and insecure by ignoring it entirely and trying to apply dread game whenever the opportunity presents itself. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 02:26 PM |

| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.Watching her actions over her words has been revelatory. It's been a month since she announced her departure. She'll bark "I'm leaving, I'm leaving" and then sit right back down at her computer and bury herself in facebook or whatever game she's playing. She could be biding her time or planning things out in detail, but either way I'm a fool for letting it get under my skin. Trying to find validation from my wife is possibly the biggest mistake I made in our relationship. On that note, it's been… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 02:19 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.I started going to the gym about two weeks ago. It's going to be an extremely long road towards fitness, but I'm in it for the long haul. I'm watching my calorie intake, trying to eat healthier as often as I can, getting more sleep, and cutting out as much self-indulgence as necessary. I keep myself very clean and mostly well groomed. Getting a haircut is the only thing that I keep letting slip. My wardrobe, while not terrible, could use some improvement. Daycare, I'm actively looking into. It's… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 02:05 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.This is pretty much exactly what I realized not long after the conversation. The details didn't matter as much as the fact that I told her my intentions for what I'd like both of us to do, and I didn't let her dodge or argue around it. It was surprising how quickly her attitude shifted back in my favor, albeit only slightly. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 02:01 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.Thanks. Wife or not, I'm in. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:59 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.My wife, when she's not being reclusive as hell and hamstering like it's going out of style, is a pretty kick-ass person. She's a lot of fun to be around, shares a lot of my interests, and is incredibly talented. She has a lot of untapped potential. I'd really like to see her strengthen those positive traits and grow as a person, but her actions (and now TRP) have taught me that I need to improve myself and live my life, not for her but for my own sake. If she gets in line behind me, fine. If no… | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:58 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.A journal sounds like a really, really good idea. Going to the gym has helped me blow off some of the stress, but a journal, like you said, could help me work through and understand what I'm dealing with. Thanks. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:47 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.I'm doing all of those things now, except documenting. That's a great suggestion and I'll start doing it immediately. Thanks for the advice, man. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:35 PM |
| 2 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.He lives a few states away and their contact is strictly through instant messenger / facebook. While I'd love to beat his shit in, I'm not sure that kind of overt insecurity is going to help me much here. Right now, it's probably best to focus on improving myself than removing him as an obstacle. I'm open to any suggestions. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:34 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.Yeah, it didn't take much to figure out that insecurity on my part is a huge turn-off to her. I cut that shit out of my behavior immediately. The friend lives a few states away and their contact is strictly through an instant messenger / facebook, so there's no way I could effectively cock-block him. It's difficult not to be concerned, but it seems that right now the best response I could have towards him is none at all. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:32 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.Thanks for the encouragement. The content in the sidebar has been invaluable so far. MMSLP is pretty incredible. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:27 PM |
| 1 | Being beta has my wife wanting divorce. Ready to take the red pill, but could use some pointers.If I'm being honest, then no, I don't. I'm sick of living this way. I'm going to improve myself and build up my self-esteem regardless of what she does. | /r/MarriedRedPill | 02/09/15 01:23 PM |
