What I Want Mental Discipline. Cultivating the skill of discipline is my primary target across these 60 days. Why I Want It I am thinking beyond the 60 days of this challenge and mapping out the life that I want to have. Discipline is a common requirement across all of the domains I wish to succeed in. The next 60 days I want to cultivate this skill so that I can move forward from here into the rest of my life and crush it. Examples of areas that will be benefited by the discipline I cultivate: …

Brilliant from a dark triad pov, just shitty from a human pov. I’m doing something similar, waiting until the date gets a little closer and she finishes this months long stressful thing at work and is in the clear.

I own the place and her name isn’t on it. Would be a little cleaner if I could move out but given that she plans to move anyway it shouldn’t be that crazy.

“We just have different expectations.” This is a large part of it. Thanks for the concise framing, I appreciate your input. This response also makes me glad that we dont have kids, no true road to freedom after that. To me it still seems reasonable to attempt to provide closure and end on good terms but I haven’t been fucked over like many of you here yet so it’s probably just a lack of experience. Protected sex since the ‘accident’, not risking that missed period chat.

Crypto is a complex place. It’s not clear that any currency (USD, BTC, etc.) will retain value in mad max times as ultimately they rely on a stable government/computing infrastructure respectively. It is clear that for anything short of mad max, storing your wealth as USD in a savings account is the wrong move. Diversify is the blue pill strategy. Buy international stocks/currencies to protect against US collapse, Buy US stocks/property/gold to protect against hyper inflation. I am a big fan of …

It’s working fine for the Anglo American. Would you rather live in Iraq, Syria, or Afghanistan? The US failing to conquer those countries doesn’t mean those cultures are superior… If the US does collapse in 10 years, then those with good habits will have the resources to flee to whatever destination they most desire.

Porn but also the desire to perform. Porn has definitely been the issue for me several times but getting in bed with your preference comes with a lot of pressure. I definitely had the ‘I can’t fuck this up’ cause me to stress and go soft. It happens. Also… an hour of fucking in might not be ED? Your body just gets tired after an hour of cardio and needs a rest. Edit: Half an hour, yeah, probably just porn and self imposed stress then, abundance mentality fixes the stress and you already know how…

Both are true. It isn't hunger that cuts the fast short, it's normally boredom/a strong desire for the dopamine that goes along with eating. I have followed your advice and cut the fast short because you're right, it'd not sustainable and consistency is what matter more here than anything. I'm planning to stick with a way of eating that is more manageable but has also done well for me in the past.

I've convinced myself that fasting is worth at least trying. recalibrate, and get better. Thanks for your well wishes. I agree completely that sticking around and recalibrating based on feedback is the most important thing.

If it were just as simple as fasting for 7 days to get a great body everyone would have one. Does the logic not apply to IF and excercise? Not trying to be a smart ass, legitimately curious. It's my understanding that almost everyone knows how to get lean and jacked and that the reason that most people aren't is an aversion to discomfort rather than a lack of knowledge. I do promote Intermittent Fasting. Great. I'm also a fan of IF. I don't see this 7 day fast as incompatible with IF and intend …

Fasting isn't magic. Totally agree. I also understand that the vast majority of early weight loss is clearing out your bowels and water lost that was stored along with the glycogen in your muscles. ​ What finally worked was simply counting calories, having about 40% of ries from protein, sticking to a simple weight lifting program, andnot doing cardio any more intense than walking. Everything else wouldlead do yo-yo-ing. Too low of calories on the diet leads to unmanageableappetite. Super glad t…

I'd say it's more than porn, it's highly stimulating content of many varieties made possible by the internet. Porn sure, but also video games, movie/show streaming, social media, podcasts, the world's music on demand, audio books, even calorie dense foods etc. You never have to stop and think. You're never alone with your thoughts. Any time you get a twinge of discomfort you immediately reach for a snack, a show, or your dick.

I think there's a third theory. After having served in a war, who you are underneath is changed. You have more respect for the people around you because you understand consequences, little shit doesn't phase you because you've experienced real suffering, and at some level you're probably just happy to be alive. In 2020 most young people are just soft. They don't understand consequences, suffering, or gratitude. Obviously you're going to feel entitled if you've always been given everything you've…

I think you're both right. OP got dropped because he dropped below the SMV she thought that she could achieve. But I also think a large part of the drop was due to his 'experiment'. Let's say OP is objectively an 8 (picking a random number) to passing acquaintances. Once she saw his emotional neediness (read: weakness) and realised that's who we was, he went from an 8 in her eyes to a 6. She already knows that she's capable of attracting and keeping 8s, so OP gets cut from the team. Luckily for …

You have missed the point. By going through all the steps of dropping rods, hooking and dragging her in across multiple interactions, you're playing her game and doing things for her. If you truly become a man to be sought after, you'll encounter women during your day to day, hobbies, etc. They will pursue you unprompted. It will freak them out that you don't respond to their charms the same way as every other guy.

I think the next step (in addition to internalising the side bar, lifting, etc.) will be to sit down and really figure out what my goals are. It's hard to do the cost benefit analysis without that information. And from there it is just accepting that commiting and not committing both come with risks and rewards. Once I understand these fully, the question becomes: Which option aligns with my highest values?

This is among the best advice so far. I know that this is what most people mean when they say 'vet her', but it's great to have a list of actual questions I should be asking myself.

How old is your LTR? What is your/her career trajectory? I'm curious about her biological clock and where you are both at with your education, career, finances, etc. If she's younger than you, there's no need to rush regardless of what she's "made clear," especially if one of you is in grad school, deep in student debt, a candidate for job relocation, or something else like that. Less about biological clock (doesn't want to think about kids until 28-30) but is basically saying she doesn't want t…

I could see this happening but in all expenses we have contributed 50/50 up until this point. My boundaries with finances have been good and expectations of joint contribution were set at the start of the relationship. She earns a similar amount to me currently (I helped her get a high earning job). The whole dynamic will change when children get involved I'm sure.

I'll do some reading on this. Definitely should have done the reading already. https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/C2017C00385 This one is the Famil Law Act. It deals with De Facto (what we call common law marriages). Haven't had a chance to read yet but will review tonight.

I'm 24 and she's 22. We've been renting together for about 12 months. I haven't put in the work that I need to and got away from red pill for a while.

This probably makes the most sense. As I refine my understanding of my mission and become the man that I can be, I'm confident that I'll have greater clarity on what I want from women (and by extension this woman in particular).

I live in Australia. I'm my state you literally just have to live together for 3 months and be perceived as a couple by people around you. Then she can take half your shit. It's crazy. Not as scary for me now because my assets are low but still scary.

The wording was not great, I've changed it in OP now. Basically I meant minimising time invested into the relationship and working my ass off in other areas of my life (e.g. Lifting, career, social circle, etc.)

I can't imagine any woman (or any man for that matter) wanting to apply her income fully toward an asset that isn't even hers. Buying together means it benefits both of us to pay it off and we'd pay it off faster. I aim to only buy something that I could afford to pay off myself anyway. That said, you're right. If I'm not ready for marriage, mixing my finances to this extent is not a wise decision to make.

Oh, DO NOT BUY A HOUSE TO SOMEONE YOU ARENT MARRIED WITH. Assuming the that I'd like to buy a property, you'd advise purchasing it 100% in my name? The main benefit to purchasing together is the ability to apply two incomes to the debt. What's the major risk that you're warning about? Also, you’re too young. Don’t marry till 30+ Would love some further clarification.

Russian roulette is a generally unappealing option. I'm not sure what you mean by a paperless marriage but in Australia once you've lived together for a period of time, the law treats you as if you were married anyway (with regard to children and financial disputes at separation).

Slow down dude. You are 24 years old. 3 years is not near long enough to vet a woman for marriage with children. You're absolutely right. I've let pressure from others (including but not limited to her) to commit further cloud my judgement. Ultimately though I need to make the decision solely for me and my goals. Secondly don’t think life with kids is all sunshine and rainbows. Nobody really ever tells you this but it is way more fucking work then you can possibly imagine to be a good father. Yo…

Yes it does. But I'd argue (especially at older ages), being single benefits men far more. An established man in his 30s and 40s will have abundant dating opportunities and will often date much younger women. A single woman in her 30s or 40s, who may or may not have reduced earning potential, will likely be in a worse position than her non-single counterparts. Men can get a lot of what they need from the opposite sex without a relationship, even once they start getting older.

To anyone reading this who is unsure, google 'minimalism'. Living with the concept that everything I own should have a purpose has been life changing.

This. I naturally find myself applying the same strategy. This includes leaving messages unread until it's convenient for you, often not until the evenings for me or the next day. I will add that there's one situation where more effort than this may be justified, when children are involved. I'm not in that situation yet but once I have children, I will probably work a little harder to make sure their mother feels some level of security.

It's not just chicks. There are more opportunities in every category. Work, social circles, access to niche hobbies, events including music, art, food, etc. If I move to a small town, then I expect I'll have already had a satisfying career and take a high value woman with me.

Yeah, he's stating its the SMV of girl you'll accept but that could definitely be an oversimplification. You've read it right, the question now is whether there's a better explanation. E.g.
