If by shit test we mean fitness test, and we should, I don't think that's the case. Maybe the post needs more context to make this clear, but I am sure that these are not fitness tests as she has been feeling threatened by multiple factors lately.

It wasn't exactly a shit test. I had already failed shit tests and it was practically over, and I was trying to prove a point or something without any criticism. Anyway the act of explanation and justification was still repulsive. No wonder we say justification is a Machiavellian fallacy.

True. It's the non-sexual values that primarily makes a woman relationship material. Bitches don't go up the plates by giving you sexual services. I don't see anything bluepill in the example. He chose what he wanted.

I burnt on this once. You can't compromise on something that's RIGHT. They very act of compromise made the bitch think I'm beta (well, I guess I was) and after that I fell even more trying to explain that I don't usually do that for anyone and justify and.. OH GOD...

I think the primary power of walking away is when you hooked her up to some level. The more you have her involved, the more powerful it is. If you are in LTR, it's nuclear. If you just met her, it's a nerf gun. I understand your perspective is "save time and energy", but it's not optimal for maximizing the success rate. Honestly, it just looks like you don't want to step up and are afraid of failure, so you eject early before trying everything to make sure you don't crash.

There was a post here a couple of weeks ago that mentioned how alpha and beta mindsets react differently to other people success or efforts to success. It was about a lady in Austin marathon who refused to use help when she dropped in the last 50 feet or something. If you're surrounded by a bunch of losers, then yes. All you'll get is envy and hate for improving yourself. But if people around you have actually tried to do something with their lives, then they understand the value of improvement.…

I used to play a lot for a few years. My stamina sucked because I hadn't been active. I didn't get fit, I just worked on my stamina to be able to stay on the pitch and actually play. Seven sessions was enough for that. My heart was exploding on the first day, because it had not experience that beating rate in years.

For her it is like to be hit on by a girl when she's straight (and arguably worse). That really doesn't count. Indeed, alphas and betas are different genders to them.

This again? We do improve ourselves for ourselves. But as social creatures, we see the benefits of that improvement in our social interactions. How would you argue that a sharp-dressed and well-groomed man has more intrinsic value if he lives alone in a cave? It would be Schrodinger's value and it would be real only after it's seen, if he ever comes out of the cave and to the society.

I think with 60% overweight population, the bar is set low. I was a super-skinny guy and after 3 months of consistent work out I started to notice some of it as a not-so-skinny guy. This was from people who knew me and respected the change, but still very encouraging. To make strangers notice I think I have at least another year of work. EDIT: I improved my wardrobe and personal care and that was a huge boost. It's not only about muscles, but muscles are the most important one.

Exactly. I used to be a nerdy guy with the-new-world-is-an-intellectual-one type of attitude that would refuse to lift and get in shape. Now I think back about what an idiot I was after seeing how many doors open if you're physically healthy and attractive.

I agree. Only after I realized that most people are not interested in the real problems, I started to train myself to have more self awareness and situational awareness. Most people don't care about hunger and war and politics, they like booze and party and shopping. They are just socially trained like that. So I save everyone some headache by taking my seriousness to the private or only with the right people, and have fun with popular culture. I don't dislike anyone for being superficial. I don…

I would only do this for my best friend. My experience is to let people learn the hard way. I lost track of how many time I have told people "I had told you so." One of my friends once told me "I kinda knew you were right. But I couldn't help it. I wanted to do it. I wanted to make that mistake!"

Oh god. This is a solid example of how to do everything wrong. It's basically saying "please give me a frame to submit to". My rule of thumb: Questions should only come after statements. Make a suggestion first. Otherwise, you sound like a needy fool. I think the number of question marks per text is strongly correlated with how beta a guy is.

My family was not rich, but through work, I happened to hang out a lot with rich young men (mostly 18 to 22 yo) for a few years. They all had an urging tendency to prove themselves, much more than any other friends (poor or middle class) I had. Many of them would rely on fictional stories a.k.a lies about themselves and made-up scenarios of how they were so cool. I soon realized that their confidence issues are worse than any poor guy I had ever met. They had been always identified by the wealth…

I never said going to school and getting a good job is bad, I said it is not the success most people like to believe it is. I'm an engineer with a masters working in a well-known tech company with good income. But I don't identify myself as successful even though most people around me do. I see it as a foundation to make some capital and make some passive income, since I wanna quit 9-5 as soon as possible and go see the world. Making this much money is actually a lot of fun in my age and I get t…

Anger is a phase of turning red pill. This book is like the first grade alphabet for waking up to the reality of how money works and think about better personal financial management. It doesn't make you literate, but it convinces you that you should start it.

Yes. I'm Robert Kiyosaki. An old billionaire trying to sell his book on the most hated subreddit, because that's what I do! LoL By the way, if you read the book it emphasizes on the importance of education, but it also says that school doesn't teach you anything about money and how it works. School is simply not enough.

That's technically right, but you will eventually have to do it. Yes, you will always have an illusion of freedom, but your other option would be basically being homeless. Most people are so deep in this shit that can't even afford to live 3 months without their salary, so they could use it as a transitional period for improving.

Good post. The main challenge of LTR is consistency imo. It is always easier to be aware of all this stuff early on, but as it gets longer and longer you tend to put things on auto-pilot and get lazy. That's the part I find the most challenging about my LTR experience. I would feel calm and happy but also lazy and reactive! That has been changing ever since I found TRP. I think it just takes work to be subconsciously RP. I never did plating and found TRP while I was in my LTR, but I suppose it w…

Its important to analyze WHY you cheated. This is such a good comment. You obviously had a very similar experience. I'm %99 sure that she won't avenge by cheating on me, but that's no reason for staying. I have been thinking about the reasons all along and I found many insecurities in myself. I realized that my confidence was heavily based on the fact that I have this LTR. No independent confidence! I wanted to prove myself that I have more value by cheating which is truly BP I think. I would ha…

You gave up frame very early on. Whenever you set up something with a girl and she offers some other time, you should immediately do an act of disqualification or show some lack of interest. Girls usually avoid or reject your first proposition of spending some time alone with prospect of sex, and that's a very critical moment. It's a great time to shape your frame and not to be lost.

The SMV chart is subjective and not for cross-person comparison. Your SMV is likely to be higher in your 30's compared to your 20's unless you do some dumb shit during those years. And we are talking average here, so examples like bands and athletes are kind of statistical outliers. Their SMV is heavily dependent on what they represent at the moment.

I agree with you 100%. (Honestly, maybe that statement is really fallacious and not entirely what I meant) There are bad habits, good habits and better habits. Then again, I see a person who can balance his life even in the most straining situations stronger than someone who has to go deep down in one direction and give all the rest up. For me, having to quit cold-turkey is a sign of weakness compared to being able to moderate the habit. Of course, quitting cold-turkey is still way better than r…

You two are going to extreme ends. Video game is one of possible hobbies out there. Getting addicted to it is bad like many other things. I can't imagine fighting alien creatures in a super-suit in my real life. Video games are the most fun way to experience a story. On the the other hand, I know I can never feel so alive in a video game, as I do when I'm working out. Plus, I don't wanna spend the last ten years of my life like a plant either. So, I do both!

You just made a long post to say video games are bad. Guess what? Anything is bad at extreme and addictive levels. I was addicted to DotA and I can relate. Yes, quitting it made my life better. But I still play occasional non-competitive games as one of my hobbies. If you are RP you should be able to control yourself and regulate your life.

This is a fallacy. It's a measurable thing. You or anyone else can measure it. This post is suggesting a method (good or bad). I agree that a 100% confident guy wouldn't question himself, but you can use it to measure/help others, or find out what you miss.

This is good. I used to think that Alpha only means big muscles and deep voice (what I lacked). After reading TRP, I realized that I have already developed many Alpha mental traits without even knowing it. I also realized what I miss and have been working on it ever since. Not quite there yet, but I am happy I didn't have to start from zero.

I agree with this list, but the number of losers faking the bad boy style is much more than the number of really confident guys with these traits. I find fakers more sickening than boring "good" guys. They even fail being the provider.

When it comes to relationships, it is really hard to define "smart". Trust me, I'm a PhD student, and when it comes to relationships, intellectuals are not smarter than anyone else if not dumber. TRP works because it's science not some kind of trick. In other words, you are the smart/expert one when you approach it scientifically.

If you want her back, don't reply. If you want her gone, reply with a heavy nuke and cut every contact afterwards. Finding another girl and showing it off helps the process. My suggestion: Number 2. She is crazy, dude!

Maintenance is more important that acquisition. Many guys fall back to BP mode as soon as they succeed in attraction phase. I have made this mistake before, and later found out that it is because of some hidden layers of confidence issues. Once I got the validation from her, I thought I have won. You have to work on independent confidence to make sure your RP mode is not an act/game. It's your life style. It's who you are.

You're right. I just mean that one should have his priorities straight for his goals. Not every one's main target is attracting women anyway. I ironically skip the leg day though. Haha.

I agree. Not every big guy you see at gym is getting all the sex he wants. Not every guy who plays guitar well gets it either. The guy who knows how to attract women gets it. It is probably the necessity of action in the field that makes some people chicken out. There is no isolated way of practicing your game like you do with lifting, hobbies, etc. You have to get out there and make mistakes. My experience: wit > muscle. That's it.

I see your point. But I have to give you a little bit backstory on why I couldn't go with that approach and had to be moderate about it. I have been with her for more than four years and we have a hell of a story (probably unique) but that's another story. I was away for two months this summer and I cheated on her with a HB8/9 20yo American girl. And, since I think cheating is for pussies and I wanted to keep my LTR, I let her know the story after I came back and let her decide. She immediately …

My experience has given me two rules of thumb: First conversation should take less than 5 mins. For every two words she says you should say at most one. Of course, you still need to use those 5 mins to leave her confused and wondering about your mysteries.

I agree it's not the hamster, but she really doesn't need to be that smart to come up with this answer. This is the DEFAULT answer any girl would give. They need to take effort to be honest and tell the truth (and they don't). This kind of bs is their default mode. That's how they have gathered all those orbiters afterall.

Irrelevant to your question but just as a heads up: be careful about your first experience. Many guys have their peak beta tendencies at their first one and normally end up lost in them. Make sure you watch yourself and re-evaluate your actions often. You are here, so you are on the right track. Your biggest enemy is yourself and your biggest asset is patience. Good luck. Tinder can be helpful too, but it shouldn't be your alternative for being social.

I know as soon as I revert back to my beta ways, she'll be done. I have made this mistake before and it is true. But thinking back at it, I think I could balance it by keeping focus.
