What if it happens when you're waiting for something next to a group of people and before you know it someone tries to take the piss or banter in front of everyone, but you're not in the mood? And you can't just walk away suddenly

If you think the silent treatment (covert abuse used by cowards) is warranted when someone makes a social mistake then that says a lot about how abusive you probably are yourself.

You wanted to one up him when you had something on him. He did right by ghosting you. Now that you're a loser in the present day, you're making an account of how you got to this point. You deserve zero from him and from other men. No need for that nasty comment. You've shown you have low emotional empathy and are not a nice person

I've improved my life massively by going from obese to fit and an extremely socially anxious recluse to someone who can talk to most people but it doesn't get rid of the panic attacks, nightmares, fight or flight responses etc from the ptsd. Talking doesn't help for this stuff neither do self-help books. It's not like a little depression like you hear everyone with a victim mentality have nowadays. I had a counsellor 10 years ago send me to a fkn yoga class and told me I was essentially overreac…

How exactly can someone move on without closure? I'm looking for actual advice on how to move on without closure. I already know I won't get closure from him etc
/r/askTRP28/05/21 12:34 AM

I know I'm not owed closure but I'd appreciate it. I'm sure he wants nothing to do with me that's why I want to be able to move on without his closure. I already know the things yous said. I'm looking for actual advice on how to move on without closure. So how can someone actually move on without closure? Is there advice for that you can give? Like a guide or something specifically for it? I'm getting constant anxiety and that fight or flight panic response because of it and can't sleep. It piss…

I'll still be talking to her, having a laugh and getting to know each other at mine beforehand, it'll just be a date at mine. I just don't wanna go on a date at a bar or something
/r/askTRP27/05/21 04:01 PM

Aye I think she does want attention but I've got like 80-90 tinder matches who I can try talking to in the meantime so I figure I may as well try, can't hurt. I don't wanna go to a bar or anything, just want her to come to mine and somehow then sleeping with her but not sure what to say to persuade her to come.
/r/askTRP27/05/21 03:31 PM

I don't want a date tbh, I just want her to come to mine and it ending up with me sleeping with her. She looks slu**y so I don't think it's out of the possibility. Not sure what words to say though to get her round

Thanks for the comment and the advice, you're right about it not mattering tbh. It's just horrible knowing I'm in my late twenties and still shit at it lmao. Women are going to expect me to be great and there'll be a lot of disappointment. By getting girls I meant if I had more self-esteem and enough going on in my life to have the confidence to not care and just go for it. Atm I get the interest but I don't follow up because of the worry about it being awkward when it gets to the bedroom. But a…

I had a family full of passive-aggressive abusive people who did things like the silent treatment
/r/askTRP25/05/21 12:50 AM
1

What if it doesn't end? Then you have to constantly focus on not looking like you care while you're not able to focus on living your life. I went through years of silent treatment growing up, that shit is debilitating for the victim and it takes no energy for the people who do it.

Been waiting for delivery for couple months coincidentally, out of stock atm. Is there a jist to how it'd help to not be affected by passive-aggressiveness and the silent treatment?

/r/askTRP16/05/21 07:35 PM

I did get over it and was happier but then he came back into my life 4 years later only to make me affected again, probably to get some narcissistic supply from me which he succeeded in doing. Now it's like he's got a hold over me which he knows and gets fuel from. How can someone just forget about this and move on, especially as he also used to bully me for years pretending he was a "friend"?
/r/askTRP12/05/21 12:16 AM
1

I know it's my ego but I can't do anything because I'm not dumb enough to risk it as I know logically it's not worth the negative consequences that can come from it, plus if I do something he would only be seen as (and make himself out to be) the victim and me the bad guy even though it's the opposite. It's so anger-inducing because I can't do anything to get past this and my ego won't let me drop it. This piece of work bullied me for years too so it's even worse wanting that feeling of justice.
/r/askTRP12/05/21 12:13 AM

Doubting if their manipulation is happening because it's covert (not able to be proven and they have plausible deniability) and if you ask them why they're intentionally being intense then cold for some reason, they'd only gaslight you by pretending nothing is happening and it's all in your head.
/r/askTRP09/05/21 01:07 AM

My frame and judgement is off tbh. How could frame help you with push/pull though with the other person giving you loads of attention for a while (getting you addicted to it) and then pulling back? It's very subtle and hard to tell what's happening

I obviously meant if you spend too much time with her and get addicted to the ego boosts. Not sure what you're shocked by but okay

Is it worth the ego hit if she leaves after you become too attached?

Ah that makes sense thanks. Btw how would you end it in this situation? I only messaged and and matched with her for the ego boost, thinking she lived in a different town lmao. I didn't even want to meet up with her. But now I've found out she works in a shop I go to regularly so I don't know how to end it properly. Part of me doesn't want it to fully end as maybe in the future I'll regret it as I might want an easy bang, but if I'd get back in touch it'd be me chasing. Then my ego would be ruin…

Isn't theredpill all about thinking about and analysing all situations though? Usually when I'm myself I'm too empathetic letting women know how I feel etc to not make them feel bad. This sometimes turns out shit so I've no clue what the happy medium is

Tbh it's hard to accept a lower-SMV lass rejecting me so I want her to want me again so I can reject her lmao. I know this will just make it worse for me in the long run with becoming attached but I can't let it go. I wish I wasn't too nice at first when I didn't want to make her feel bad by ignoring her or giving short answers because I didn't care about her. It made her go cold. Is there a way to get her to come round mine so I can bang her? Even now she's gone cold? I'm not an expert in redpi…

What if you stop the pursuit and she never responds back? What if she'd respond if you start pursuing her again, so if you just stopped you might have wasted the opportunity with her?
/r/askTRP04/05/21 11:52 PM

Doesn't the fact that you're obsessed enough to "win the war" and create a long-term plan with show you're in another person's frame? Also how do you know she'd reply back after leaving you on read? Is there some way you knew she'd get back in touch or did you not care either way? It's hard to imagine I could not care either way as it'd hurt the self-esteem knowing she was the one doing the rejecting if she didn't reply

Thanks I'll take a look at that mate. They're not avoiding me tho, they actually keep messaging me but weirdly take a day to open the message and them a bit to reply after they left it on "read", after months of just replying normally. I know for a fact they don't do anything to keep them that busy from talking before. It's so strange, if it was the same behavior from the get-go I wouldn't be that bothered. It's like the hot/cold stuff that is preached on here to do to sloots.

So if people (friends or women) see your msg in their phone notification bar but don't open it on purpose leaving it as a grey tick or on "seen" to play some weird mind game powerplay, how would you feel or react?

I think I'm acting like the narc friend I had all last year who fkd with my head. He made me so aware of this stuff due to projecting his fkd up issues and insecurities and always leaving doing weird powerplay stuff and now I'm anxious with everyone (friends and women) when it comes to messaging. It's like he gave me attachment issues. How would you get past this? I'd like to just reply normally saying thanks etc but this person will see my msg in his notification and not even bother opening it …
/r/askTRP04/05/21 03:45 PM
1

maybe it's because I'm isolated and have no friends due to past stuff and cutting them out. How do I not care if people (friends or women) respond or not. I seem to care and get really anxious even when they haven't opened my reply on Messenger the more anxious when they leave me on "read" and wait for ages when I know they see it as a notification on their phone

How to make her want my attention again so I can then reject her and come out on top?
/r/askTRP04/05/21 08:13 AM
1

I wish i wasn't just being nice and replying to her now. Now it'll look like I'm the one being rejected even if I tell her I'm not interested. The only reasons I wanna call her now are to see if I can still bang her cos she's sl*tty looking and might be filthy, and also so she tries to get my attention again so I can reject her haha How to get her to want my attention again so I can then reject her and come out on top?
/r/askTRP04/05/21 08:12 AM

That's what I'm thinking. What do you recommend I do now? I wanna get her attached so it's me doing the rejecting now lol. I can't believe I even matched with her and others that are lower SMV that I'm regretting now too

I'm pretty sure it was number 2. I had that feeling of it being a chore to talk because I didn't care that much (only for a bang) but I didn't want to leave her hanging as I'd have felt bad. So I soppily replied saying how I didn't realise she was such a sweetheart lmao and she gave a short answer the day after. Btw how do you deal with never fully knowing which it is? With having no closure etc, because this happened before I messaged her again last night for a phone call cos I wanted to bang h…

Lmao damn I know the feeling, it's madness how they can just ghost you straight after feeling as if they're in love with you, like a switch has been flipped and you're nothing to them anymore. I guess it's a lucky escape but it's still hard to bear for the ego. Sorry for the late reply btw mate 👍 Also there's another woman (a couple SMV points below me) who's doing this and has been messaging me and liking my tinder profile multiple times by creating new accounts (I see the likes via tinder gold…

Thanks for your comment mate, I appreciate it. You're definitely right about these types wanting to keep people down who they feel superior to. When I first started being friends with him years ago in school I was popular, well-loved etc and he seemed good but in time bit by bit he chipped away at me and I became a wreck who barely went out.

How do you decide if someone isn't an abuser though and is a real friend? I can't afford to open up to anyone else because I did that last year with a different friend who I thought was the best friend I could have and he turned out to be some covert narcissist and messed me up and destroyed my self-esteem even more. He pretended he was a friend but remembered and brought up every single vulnerability I had to make me think I was mentally not all there. If a new friend crosses a line and you set…

When you wrote to not let narcissists know if you're empathetic or hurt by them, doesn't that mean you'd go through life just keeping all your emotions to yourself and staying distant from everyone. Because you can't fully tell who's a narcissist, especially with covert ones and there's always plausible deniability and the cycles when they're nice and not nice which causes confusion and gives you cognitive dissonance. After coming out of a narcissistic friendship late last year who I initially t…

Even if these people you knew for years and you thought they were your friends? Looking back on it I didn't realise at the time that I was going through years of bullying which contributed to me becoming a recluse for the past 5 years until recently.

Thanks for the advice but it was already over before I read it haha. I ended up not replying to her and haven't gone to the theme park with her bf and her kid. I feel bad tbh and don't want her to feel uneasy or something, but it's just too much stress having to worry if someone's giving the silent treatment or other stuff just to feed their ego and give them that sadistic feeling of power over someone, especially if it's my sister which is even more messed up.

I dunno tbh. I'd feel bad for cutting her out as she's my sister. I'm never 100% sure whether she's abusive or not and if she is whether she's doing it intentionally, or is maybe just afraid of confrontation or something. Although her giving me the silent treatment (whether it was done malevolently or not) after I just told her how much I was affected from silent treatments from a friend recently doesn't sit right. She started this silent treatment due to me setting a boundary to not have my tim…

Thanks for your comment mate, I appreciate you taking the time to write it and it's very helpful. One thing that I'm stuck on is that wouldn't the best option for the silent treatment be to also just walk away from those people (even if they're family members who say they care for you and know you went through abuse before, but their actions suggest otherwise) just like you would with the people who gaslight?

Some things she said was like she was in love, telling me I had an aura about me and complimenting my body etc. Like she'd been obsessing over me before we'd even …

Yeah ano haha. She literary left the course we were on together too and didn't turn up. I felt a lot of shame afterwards as if I'd done something wrong and should avoid people and keep my head down even though she's the one who ghosted me.

/r/askTRP14/04/21 10:54 AM

The cheese in the mouse trap is the perfect analogy haha. That's exactly what happened to me. At the start she literally triple texted me and by the end of it a month later I was the one triple texting her after I didn't care much to start with. I feel like she's the one who showed intense interest in me, asked me out, came into my life love-bombing me to get me addicted to her and then fucked off as if I was the needy one which was the opposite of reality and I was manipulated into being that w…

I dunno haha. I think I felt my SMV was lower than it actually was and I kept at it with her because I thought that she was out of my league but in reality she was probably lucky to get with me (from a looks perspective). But the fact she was so intense and then just fucked off without giving closure after I got drawn in is on my mind
/r/askTRP14/04/21 10:47 AM

Ah right. What do you think it could be? The first night she came round mine we didn't have sex but she texted straight after she left saying she had a good time. Then weeks later when we had sex she didn't text at all after. The sex was bad and rushed and I could barely get it up lol. Or could it just be the neediness in the end with the triple texts?

Yeah maybe. I had low self-esteem my entire life and always thought no girl romantically likes me until she came along after I lost weight and made me realise I'm actually desirable. And made me realise that when girls used to want to be around me all the time growing up it wasn't just for friends because I just made them laugh like I thought it was. She made me sorta flip the mental switch and now I realise if a woman smiles at me and wants to be around me I can get with them if I choose to. Bu…

How did you go about learning more about social dynamics and pecking order, did you read any things in particular? I've learnt more recently about narcissism and these cluster b type people who bully, taunt and have little empathy but I feel I could learn more about people in the way you said. Also is there anything you did specifically to improve your life that maybe you could share please?

What if these bullies gave you ptsd and other lasting mental effects like trust issues etc which make my L either permanent or at least so long they may as well be a permanent L? Also there are things like having to start from scratch with everything in my late twenties 10 years late and being far behind everyone else.

It's hard to feel grateful because I still have ptsd over everything and no friends or family having cut out abusers/bullies.

Yeah you're right mate. I'm not really religious but the phrase "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do" came to mind. What you say makes perfect sense but it's still so hard to not focus on them tbh. Do you yourself find it easy to forgive those who do you wrong?

Yeah I'm not sure if people change even as they grow into adults, they just get better at hiding their true selves.

It feels to me like the phrase "able to settle our disputes without violence and without revenge" is said by those who want to verbally/psychologically abuse others and get away with it with no real consequences, while taking the moral high ground so they feel superior to those "uncivilised" people lead by their "animal brain".

He's right with regards to drinking. I used to do it to avoid being anxious when on a night out. Now my mindset has changed.

Do you focus on making her laugh or just yourself when making it funny? I can do it, just usually I don't know which way to go about it lmao, think I'm an autist

Been left on read by another girl that I used to know for years cos I was too jerkish I think lol. My natural self is too nice tho and used to be taken advantage of so it's hard to know what's the right way

Do you make them the joke when joking about or just general stuff? Like in this case she instantly talked about how hot she is so I thought I'd take the pi$$ and make her the joke, but I ended up taking it too seriously trying to get a good outcome lol

Lmao probs came off as the latter. Do you know what style is the best way to go about things and if there's a guide or something?

Nah mate you were right to post your comment as I meant women, friends and/or everyday life. No need to apologise I can relate to the dominating bit and you're definitely correct about it all. Recently I was with a woman and realised that she wanted me to take the lead and probs would have done anything I wanted. It was just all foreign to me and I didn't know how to dominate her (plus I was self-conscious) so had boring sex in the end. She ended up ghosting me not long after that for breaking f…

Why are people in this sub pushing for the normalisation of things like OnlyFans? Do they not know who is behind degeneracy like this being pushed? Any woman who uses or has used OnlyFans is tainted imo. Maybe worth a bang but nothing more

It just makes me wanna go back to a recluse tbh lol. How do you go through life around people and always having to be on-guard waiting for some asshole to talk shit for no reason? Just too stressful being so hyper-vigilant 24/7 after years of it already

Sounds like way too much work tbh and the juice isn't worth the squeeze, I'd rather just avoid people again as I did for years. How do people go through life being around people constantly and always having to be vigilant/on-guard to defend against some asshole who talks crap to you? I just cba with the stress of it all

Thanks, I'll take it on board. Does this method also work in general like with men and women at the office or bars etc when they try and shit on you? Or just mainly for women you're wanting to bang?

Tbh I think I'm referring more to when around males and when they insult you at work, a classroom or with friends hanging out. Would agreeing and amplifying still work? I've known some really cocky people who don't ever let up and continue with insults even if you play along. Those people have never really had their behaviour checked

I don't fully understand your comment. Do you mean a dumb person, as in never involve yourself with someone who is dumb and immature as they'll always win because being dumb and immature doesn't come naturally to you as it does them? I'm guessing going no contact and avoiding them in the future would be the best option? Would you be smiling/smirking when delivering that agree-and-amplify line, or just straight-faced wanting to move on to the reason why you're there?

Going to reread that book. Thanks for the comment, you're right about the past affecting me.

You make a lot of sense and completely right, now I'm thinking about this. Shit, it's hard not to take life so seriously and not to be on guard like how I had to be growing up with bullying etc. Does this get easier the more you raise your self-worth through stuff like hobbies/skills learnt or things like socialising and making more friends? My only "hobby" is the gym lol

lol good responses tbh. I remember when I used to not give af for a period growing up and would say stuff like that. Does it come naturally the more self-esteem you gain?

I read NMMNG a few months ago, it helped a bit for some stuff like confronting people but instinctual things like what happened are still deep-rooted from years of childhood shit and part of my nature. Not sure how to get rid of it and losing over 70lbs and having a good body now hasn't improved it. Never heard of WISNIFG but will check it out.

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