There’s a middle ground too. I’m 36 now and have peers that I grew up with who found someone in their mid to late 20s that they settled down with. Friends that seem well adjusted in their careers and balancing family time now in their mid 30s as they are having children while being in a solid position financially. They were able to focus on school (often times professional or grad school) and social groups with shifting towards finding and settling down with a partner by the end of their 20s and…

Don’t give up on yourself bro. 40 years old is not that old for a man to find a mate. Plenty of women in their early 30s would love to find an attractive caring 40 year old man that knows what he wants. It sounds to me like you need to get clear about what your values are and your boundaries in a relationship. Understand the value you can provide and hold yourself to that. Stay true to what your values are and you can find a partner to align with if you make it a priority.

Region matters a lot as well. If you’re anywhere in public in West Los Angeles the women and the competition of other men is top notch when it comes to physique. But if you’re in a midsized Midwest city you’re going to be cream of the crop if youre on your game. As well though the pick of women that are fit is going to be reduced. IMO I would rather be in the 2nd environment. Only can approach so many women anyway, and with less competition you’ll fare better with those that are approachable.

Agreed. Basketball is mine. Gets me in a flow state while playing. Involves cooperation. But also a lot of physical contact with other men. Great competition, cardio, explosiveness, etc.

You can get that from playing any contact sport. I can feel the difference from not playing basketball for a year during covid to how I feel now playing again 3x a week. Being in physical competition with other men does something that nothing else can replace. I'm calmer and healthier physically, but also mentally with better mood. After laying it all out on the court I feel supreme confidence and relaxation going out and conversing with people. It's completely different to how I felt when I was…

If you continue growing and seeking you will find things that call to you.

If you're trying to release it from fat stored then it would go right into the urine. By that logic it would be a good idea more than 1 day before but a bad idea to do fat burning exercise within the last day leading up to the test

I just want to add that even though they say it can take 3 weeks to get out of your system, that is for more chronic use. A one time off can often be out of urine in a few days. Especially if he implements some of the exercise and diet regimens to clear it out of his system. Worst case he has to retake it if they say his urine is too diluted. He should take this as a learning experience but could absolutely still accept the offer. ​ "Infrequent users (less than 2 times/week) can test positive fo…

I want to be social and be around people that like being around me. I'm willing to bet that almost all of your motivations are for social acceptance and to be surrounded by people, to feel connected and belonging. The path of self improvement can prove to be a never ending reach towards wants and needs that are never deeply satisfying. Do some soul searching. I recommend walks in nature, just being with yourself. Not trying to do anything, but just being and listening and observing the world min…

I shouldn't have forgotten the TRP teachings so quickly after getting into relationships with pretty girls (with the help of the said TRP teachings, which makes each slow decay back into a beta even worse) Fuck man.

Its really unfortunate. In our society young men have little power and older women have little power. It all lies in the hands of older men who have built up their place and have a stake in keeping the status quo, and young women who are benefiting from their young allure without realizing the power of it and the limitations of it in the larger scheme of life satisfaction.

The difference is women won't hit a rock bottom when they go through these destructive habits. They will still find men to support them through the worst behaviors, thus they don't get the impetus to HAVE to change themselves as dramatically as we men do.

I used to hear that term a lot growing up. But I'm 34 now, and I haven't heard it used in that context in years. I live in Los Angeles. I dont think it's regional, but I dont have any children now. Among the people I know it is used frequently to mean that you are being level-headed, not angry/upset/overly emotional.

If your kid is grounded all the time, chances are pretty good the problem is with you, not them. I had to read this 4 times to figure that by "grounded" you meant the child was being punished, not that they were being level headed.

Holy shit this is on point with my self. It took me until I was in my early 30s to discover the roots of my issues lay in perfectionism vs excellence. Growing up I was constantly praised for results and punished (when caught) without great results. But often little effort was put in because I skated by on being "smart" which I was often told. By the time I was 30 I was in a constant state of high anxiety, exhausted and feeling almost hopeless trying to be perfect and hide my flaws. It was then a…

I've learned to just withdraw attention and comment as little as possible in regards to behavior I don't condone. ​ Then throw on the attention with authentic enthusiasm when behavior is in line with my frame. ​ Reward good behavior. And ignore bad. Confronting it just makes it more real when it's just their emotions running amok. Shit tests have become fewer for me, and my girl seems to do a quick 180 when those fits do arise.

Unfortunately, our society has lost the tribal community that used to raise children into competent men. It is necessary for their father to play an active role in their development. You can be out all day conquering your goals, killing it at your career/business, gym, etc. and still play the lead role in a family. That's the consummate noble male that can better our community of man. If we all had a father like that we wouldn't need places like this.

Then having no kids is quite a bit beta imo. I agree, which is why I intend to marry. I want to pass on my seed and raise the next generation of my genes. I don't think there's any higher calling for an alpha male. I dread the thought of having to run my game on a cohabitant though.

I don't believe I'm taking it too literally.

You should read up on the difference between Perfection and Excellent. Someone pointed them out to me last year and it's had a profound effect on my frame. I've had a similar issue with chasing perfection, never being good enough, and thinking I need x, y, and z all set up before taking a step. “Striving for excellence motivates you; striving for perfection is demoralizing.” ... Perfectionism is focused on “doing the thing 'right'”, how things APPEAR, and if OTHERS think it's done right. Excelle…

Finding fulfillment, which for me is in dedicating myself in service of others. My community, family, friends, humanity, etc. If I can improve the lives of others I am fulfilled and it gives my life purpose. I honestly feel great when I do. ​ On a philosophical level, if everyone lived their lives in this way we could form a more harmonious world in which we all benefit (myself included) - though this is a theoretical result it is not my motivation in guiding my behavior.

Seriously. I'm 5'5" and been lifting religously for much of the past 5 years. It helps, but it's no game changer as much as being cocky, confident, and outgoing can be. It definitely helps when the clothes come off though. I see guys that are nowhere near as ripped as I am getting a lot more looks just from being 6 inches taller than me.

There's a difference between being more educated and climbing the career ladder. That is the distinction that is important here. I'm a 32 year old man nearing the end of my M.S. and definitely find more educated women more attractive, but that doesn't hold true for more career driven (ie. a lawyer, aspiring CEO, etc.)

Corollary: My parents didn't separate until I was 24 when my Dad decided to bail. I am very grateful for the time I had to spend together with them as a family. All the baseball games, holidays, camping trips, road trips, ski trips that my Dad organized for us all despite my mom's constant complaints. Their relationship sounds simlar to OP. My brother who is 12 years younger than me was not so fortunate and it was very telling in his fucked up relationship with my Dad.

You're trying to use red pill methods to achieve blue pill dreams. You just described a large segment of this subreddit.

Excellent comment. I agree it deserves its own post. However, I would not necessarily include the discovery of a unicorn for the Alpha Omega Male.

You left out financial reasons. My brother married his wife when he entered the marine corps' officer candidate school to be a pilot.

The captain doesn't ask the first mate or crew member which way to turn to avoid an obstacl, he decides and hopes he chooses correctly. There's nothing wrong with consulting the first mate to bounce your ideas off of before committing to a decision. In fact, sometimes it's prudent to do so. If you've chosen your first mate well then they should be able to offer helpful insight in many (not all) cases.

It took hitting rock bottom after finishing my Bachelor of Arts under/unemployed and finally ending my failing 2 year relationship with my "first love". I was forced to re-evaluate everything I had been doing and my perspective on the world. I read a lot of books on self-help. A lot of them were garbage, and some were great. But what I came away with was…

I agree with the premise that riding a motorcycle can reduce your chances of getting in an accident if you are hyper aware of your surroundings. But the chance of accident needs to be reduced dramatically to account for the astronomically higher chance of injury/death (and more severe injury) in the case that an accident does occur. And if a person is using a motorcycle as their primary mode of transportation, there WILL be times that they are riding without the clarity of mind to avoid a close …

I own a motorcycle and have ridden for 3 years. I will honestly admit that it is far more dangerous than a car. I've read that motorcyclists are 15 times more likely to be injured in an accident. With no seat belt and cage and only 2 wheels it's really quite easy to be injured. You don't have to be riding like an ass to be cut off, hit slick pavement, gravel or a ditch, or just lose focus at the wrong time. Riding safely on a motorcycle requires constant vigilance, and all it takes is one minor …

There is also a lot of comments and posts on TRP from people who are still in the anger phase. They're thoughts really are hateful or anti-woman. You can see the venom in their words.

The difference is you are engaging in an activity with that car. So it really is a hobby, not just a material item to make you feel good about yourself. Personally, I have never understood people's fascinations with cars. However, I have owned motorcycles and am always pulled to looked closely at bikes that I walk past. But it's because of the experience of riding them (or imagining what it would be like to ride). That thrill is what I enjoy, not the idea of it. And it sounds like your sportscar…

Yeah, it's definitely a combination of these factors. Even with being a woman she may have been suspended if she and her sport were as famous and relied on tens of millions of dollars of ad revenue.

This is why cable television shows have become much better than movies. They can break the archetypes and develop real stories around real men (not some pretty boy white knight). The characters are flawed and there is no woman or thing that will make it all happily ever after.

The only problem is what happens to these men when they reach their 50s? Or even 60s and 70s?

Too many smileys and "haha"s for one. You're not her girlfriend. You don't sound confident at all. More like you are tiptoeing around. "It's destiny"? That's reeks of beta desperation. Acting more cocky and aloof would have been better. You had already lost her by the time you cut the smileys and grew some balls. Someone who's more experienced than I with building attraction via text might offer some alternatives. I don't use tinder and have always relied on building attraction in person first.

It's very common for guys to get gyno during puberty, but for most people it goes away on its own. If it's still there when you're 20 you could have it surgically removed. Just keep in mind, it's probably 10 times more noticeable to YOU than it is to anyone else.

Women are the more selective gender when it comes to sex. Men usually seek permission from women (direct or indirect) to fuck them. However, once this stage has been reached, it's more likely for a woman to fall for a man and want commitment/relationship than it is for a man. Essentially, women are selective in who they fuck, but once they fuck are frequently looking for commitment. Men are indiscriminate with who they fuck, but are more selective with committing.

Seduction is a mindset that becomes a part of your personality after a while. It starts out as something you have to prep yourself for before you go out at night. Then it becomes something you consciously throw in throughout the day. Eventually it becomes a part of your personality, to open or flirt any time you see an attractive woman. Of course, sometimes you are just tired, zoned out, or thinking of something else. We've all had that happen.

He's right tho. A number doesn't really mean anything, and often doesn't even mean a date. All it really means is she doesn't find you creepy.
