Indeed. But sometimes exactly what we need is others to remind ourselves to enjoy our day. I'm grateful for having friends like this, because I easily get into the same performing-rut as OP.

Don't worry. It's like a sickness you had. You're over it, but the effects will linger for a while. But with time you will be perfectly fine. Just don't watch any of that content anymore.

I find this very strange. Just the like the poster you responded to, it's difficult for me to understand WHY someone would turn into redpill if they're in a happy relationship. It makes me think that there was something that bothered him, but he was too afraid to bring it up. An honest conversation where you both listen to eachother could have helped things at some point. But it might be too late now.

How can you be sure it's not gonna happen. I got into my first relationship at 33. And reading reddit these days, it seems to be pretty common. But so I want I be able to have tools to feel better despite that. This is good thinking. If you try to base your happiness in a relationship, it will fail anyways. That needy energy is very off-putting. Focus on making your life as fullfilling as you can on your own, by focusing on your goals of career / hobbies / health, while having good friends with …

Hmm.. There's a lot of familiar things from my past relationship. I don't think he has fooled you for 6 years. Most likely his feelings have changed, both because of time and because of his newfound confidence AND brainwashing from redpill material. The good thing (though it's the most difficult for you to do) is that the answer is simple; You leave. If he loves you, he will come back and treat you with respect. If he doesn't, you're free to find someone who treats you well.

Yes, it's not a simple matter. Single people often are made to feel like failures in society. You get told things like "don't worry, you'll find someone someday". - Automatically putting you in a position of lack. This goes for both men and women. And it's true that many do want to find a partner. So they search for solutions. And this is where nowadays, unfortunately, redpill often comes in for men.

Finding love is not about impressing others. Most turn to redpill after unsuccesful dating/relationship experiences.

Btw. Not all who teach cold approach are redpill.

Yes. Just think about it yourself. Think about how your parents, grandparents, etc. met

I'm not sure why you are asking this sub for advice on dating. The way I see it, there are basically 3 ways: Through friend groups (including hobbies) Cold approaching Online dating In school years, you could easily meet people through friends, but it gets more difficult when you're an adult. Hobbies is another option. If you're interested in something, you could join a group. I've had some success with online dating, but it takes a lot of effort. And there's nothing wrong with cold approaching.…

How to move forward? Stop watching the content and start dating again. As you said, everyone has had bad experiences.

but other people feel like they're losing empathy or that they can't view women as human beings anymore This is exactly what I was feeling too. But about the not being yourself part. I don't see it being so simple. Obviously he (Neil Strauss) came up with a whole alter persona. But is there exactly a fixed "yourself" that is the same from birth to death? I feel like our personalities go through changes throughout our lives, based on our experiences and what we feel is true to us. That is what ma…

Why do you download it and read it?

What redpillers say doesn't really have anything to do with the epidemic in large. Yes, it exists. And it's not only men, it's also women. The reasons for this epidemic go deep. It has a lot to do with social media (unrealistic expectations for a partner), dating apps (easy to leave somebody, because it's easy to find a replacement), porn. And overall this modern culture of instant gratification.

This was one thing that often raised my eyebrows in redpill content. If I meet a woman and she tells me she's a virgin, that would be more of a red flag if anything. Having a modest bodycount tells she's had a normal life.

Yep. A good example of this was a video I was watching earlier today, a social skills coach is reacting to a redpiller video about "shit-tests". Not only you can clearly hear from the voice of the person in the original video how he is angry/resentful but also everything he is saying is giving of a view where women are opponents. Terrible advice for impressionable young men.

Have you had the kind of tendencies yourself? There are a lot of people that do take advantage of such people. Both men and women.

From those, I've only read "No more mr. nice guy". At the time, I thought it was pretty good. But nowadays I think it tackles the problem of being a people pleaser in a bit too complicated fashion (for me). It gives a lot of advice and exercises for specific things. I think that way can work well for someone who can take it like a course, where you do different exercises every day. What works better for me is understanding the underlying principles that lead to people pleasing behaviour. When yo…

I'm not sure if it's even completely possible. There wouldn't be a society without couples having children. So the idea that "everyone should have a partner" is build into society. Single people always get asked when visiting parents/relatives the typical questions of "is there anyone special?" I was 33 when I got into my first relationship. I wish I would have had that experience earlier. Sure it was wonderful at times, but it's not all there is to life. In that sense, I think redpill has some …

Probably.. My grandma used to say that I would find a good girlfriend from church. Now I've started to think that I should have listened to her.

The thing is, the opposite of "half-assed" is the typical nice-guy. Always there for the woman, giving her all his attention. And based on a lot of anecdotal evidence (including what women themselves say), that is not attractive.

Hmm.. This made me think something new. Yes, I was being an overly sensitive pushover without a back bone, This is what I meant by being too much of a nice guy. BUT, perhaps she would not have been as manipulative or selfish if I hadn't been that way.. It's like when children test their parents. If the parent always caves in and lets the child have his/her way, that child will become very entitled.

Sorry to break your bubble, but it's ALWAYS transactional with women. They don't love you for who you are, but for the value you bring in to their lives. If you are a handsome man, they will feel special - knowing that other women are jealous for the catch they made. Same logic applies if you're a doctor, lawyer, celebrity.

You get a lot of points from good looks. But it's not enough if everything else falls flat. I've seen plenty of men who are average or slightly below average looking, with gorgeous girls. Goes without saying that they have everything else in place; they have charm, social status / masculinity.

Yes. For a man, it's brutal these days. Either you commit to years of hard work to increase your sexual market value, or you give up. When you start from zero, meaning you are unconfident, unattractive man, you have very little changes of getting women. So you try to be nice, you buy things, you flatter them. But it doesn't affect attraction. If an ugly, fat women would buy you a present and tell you that you're handsome, would it suddenly make you attracted to her? If you don't want to give up,…

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
