It’s a lot fking harder when you treat people like this. The type of guy my dad warned me about. And for the record: I’m proud of you for being real and honest with yourself and being vulnerable enough to say it.

Holy crap you can absolutely be truly loved. Geeeezus is that what they’re saying? Lord have mercy please fellas just put the red pill down. You can be loved but it takes time and I’ll say it: a lot of young hotties will not know how to do that, they need to grow and learn too!!! You all do. The first real relationships may be hard and not work out. But focus your energy on how to love truly and deeply if that’s what you want in return. Do THAT work. And you’ll find it eventually. Just keep movi…

I dig what you’re saying and think it’s true. Looks and resources may draw people together or attract people initially, but if that’s the only stuff you’ve got? That relationship will not last long. Over and over again, a tale as old as time, a relationship that lasts takes work and flexibility as both looks and resources? Are impermanent!!! They are both subject to change, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. If all you want is looks and resources, have at it! But accept you may experienc…

Omg no. All of it, no. Get away from the redpill vacuum. And why not ask some actual women for a change? I am 34f now, but when I was 18-present i guess i always just dated creative guys. That we’re not remotely rich. Just creative and passionate. That was majorly hot to me. They were on the leaner side honestly. Only my partner now is a bit buffer. Two were just outright skinny dudes. And exactly NONE were chads. Gross. Not in a million years. Just get away from it. That’s insane. And if you sp…

Ya that’s fair. Age is not really a part of it really. Anyone can experience this. The hope is that as an adult you’re somehow perceived as being more self assured and less vulnerable to this sort of thing, but it’s not really like that or maybe that is too narrow of a way to think about it.

You may think at 25 you can’t be groomed. Well, that’s not totally true. I was 24 and got soooo mentally fkkd by a 40 year old. Grooming happened there for sure. I suppose it can happen at any age, all.

Omg it does matter, 36 and 25, it shouldn’t matter, but here I think it does. He wants someone he can control. Maybe he is a bit insecure too and afraid to lose you the younger hottie (just a hunch) so rather than to make you feel great and valued, he’s falling for dumb bs he’s being sold in his insecurity. Stuff that just makes you feel small. I dated a guy who turned out to be similar. Only I was 24 and he was 40-something? I forget now, that was 10 years ago! But jeeezus. Turns out he was jus…

Listen PLEASE STOP ASKING MEN THESE QUESTIONS YOU CAN LITERALLY ASK WOMEN, PLEASE JUST ASK WOMEN WHAT THEY WANT ASKING MEN IS LITERALLY ALWAYS GOING TO BE HEARSAY AT BEST Just ask freaking women. Goodness. Why isn’t that ever an option? Even here, sure there are women that come in and follow and reply on this sub because well we know we can help and genuinely want to but…… you should be asking more women questions in the first place. You’ll just otherwise end up in a male idea vacuum. Please lit…

Pretty much all of them. All of them. The SECOND a woman sniffs this out, it’s over. If she has any sense. She’ll at least cry and talk about it with her friends and everyone will encourage her to end it and you’ll be blacklisted by the community of women there once outed. There could be exceptions, but you cannot fathom the response you would get. Here’s a fun little experiment: **COPY AND POST THIS EXACT POST TO r/TwoXChromosomes and/or r/AskWomen and find out.

I hope OP sees this. And also: every guy ever. Those red pill dudes… I mean, so so many of them have very unhealthy relationships!!! And who wants to be so drained and who wants the pressure of being with someone that only likes you for your looks and money? It would be such a bummer and curse! Just look around a lot more. Plenty of just average people are are doing fine. It might not be super sexy or get millions of followers, but it’s fine. It’s okay. It’s okay to be plenty average and a great…

You know I think I just have a thing for big noses. Every guy I’ve dated but one. And that one was the WORST. The big nose having guys were all so so so so fun and cool and nice and super duper handsome to me! Yay, noses! Btw my phone autocorrects noses to “Moses.” For a second it looked like I was super excited about some arc builder’s potentially large nose :D

Well hey, there’s definitely going to be issues anytime you make swooping generalizations like “men” and “women” anyway. And maybe what is more correct is: “people.” There will be loads of people happy to know you and share space with a well adjusted person that’s done the work and is generally content with life. Who has made it through to the other side of depression and who manages insecurities, etc. Who has devoted time to passions and development. At some point, too, as folks seem to get old…

Hey this is a very very triggering thing for some folks. I am assuming you’re a dude. And I appreciate that you are trying to bridge gaps, right? Like you’re trying to ask for help. And you are wanting better help for young dudes and you’re trying to to say “hey being mean just pushes people further into the abyss.” And that is fair in a way, I don’t have any bad things to say about that. But please. Please be patient with “the left” (??!! I don’t think this is political honestly….). What I mean…

Gosh those are heartbreaking. And you know it really does damage your woman to the extent you wouldn’t even want her anyway. I dated a guy that did used these tactics and my god. I attempted suicide and went to the hospital and seriously why would anyone even want to stay with someone who just can’t sleep? Like I would go for weeks on end with only one hour of sleep. Why would you ever fuck someone up so badly? Like just in general does it make you feel powerful and more secure? Good lord. Good …

You know statistically men leave their partners after they get into bad accidents FAR more often than women. This is a proven thing. Idk. I just don’t think I could tolerate this NOR make it my life’s job to try and change his mind. Cause you’ll be dealing with this forever. Any time he loses a hair “are you leaving me because I’m balding? WOMEN ARE TERRIBLE” or he loses his job, any fudging time something happens where he feels insecure, it’s gonna be a redpill bloodbath. Idk. Idk i tried datin…

Also, honestly, the fact that you feel that men care for for women than the other way around? Like you suspect that? Is kind of an indicator to me that you are a very loving person. Like you are capable of deep deep feels. That is very special. As a lady, my god, i cannot express to you how often I have felt the opposite, i would spend so many years in relationships just wishing he would ask me how i am or desperately trying to be attractive for him or prepare the right food or etc etc etc. I re…

Man this sucks. First off it’s so completely false that it is mind boggling. Second off, it’s sad that anyone would consider this to be true.

That information is such crap it’s totally laughable. None of the men I have dated came anywhere near that income and the only reason we broke up was a. Moving to another country, b. Well the one guy was just terrible and abusive, and c. The last ex was wonderful over all but just didn’t want kids and I thought I wanted to try it so we had to part ways. Goodness gracious I’m so so sorry that all the bs is out there, it’s all just stupid guys lying to you and profiting off you feeling insecure. S…

If you think it feels bad at 20, imagine me, 33 and still no kids. Like literally I admitted myself to a psych ward I pretty much just felt like that was it, I’m too old, I am worthless and have no family, I may as well just die. It’s not true though sweetheart. And if it is true, we’ll then fuck it anyway. We might as well just get out there and enjoy ourselves. Fuck it. Let’s go dance and play music and see the world. And you know what?

Oh and I should qualify, money CAN buy happiness up until around maybe $50-60k, after that it doesn’t make as much of a difference as you think.

It sounds like a bunch of bullshit, but maybe start by loving your own life. Figure out how to do that. You’ll learn a lot and be more prepared for the next big relationship. If they’re a good fit, life will seem to get better and you can balance each other out. If it’s shit, you’ll have a better sense of things because you’ll see how they are bringing you down.

You deserve compassion and maybe, with redpill being a pretty insular and male only sphere for the most part, maybe it helps to talk to real actual women sometimes. …esp since a lot of the questions and concerns are about, well, women/relationships etc. It might not be totally helpful, you see, to just exists in an all-male vacuum. Lastly, I admit to looking up certain things like redpill cause I want to understand that perspective. And hey the world is a scary place, I don’t want to be used or …

Downvote me all you like but as a lady I can offer some special perspective: From your post, seeing that you’re considering escorts, I don’t think I’m wrong to assume that you just want sex. Right? Like with a hot person? If that’s all you want then yes get an escort, works out for everyone, they get paid and you get laid. But. If you give ANY evidence that that’s all you want to women on dating websites (outside of hookup ones) you’re screwed cause you’ll never get screwed. Women there are usua…

Honestly this is why sex work should be legal. I coulda made a TON of money when I was younger. If all you want is to have sex with pretty people, it does feel like there could be a price to that. I think women care more about relationships though, yep, even the hot ones. Being seen and valued as a full human. And outside of making some money or craving attention, I don’t think women on the whole like to be seen or treated as objects in this way. Like we don’t exist for your pleasure. And hot pe…

Maybe women are all too different in tastes to really have some monolithic things about it everyone can agree on? Maybe because no one thing “works” for everyone and relationships are not one-size-fits-all? Maybe because there’s no one single way to get women, because women aren’t a game to be won and rule books and tactics and moves are manipulative and the exact opposite of how women want to be seen or treated. Because women know that if you like me, spend time with me, any money and time spen…

Hah you sound pretty mad I don’t see why you’d be downvoted or sassed. I started following this to understand more about redpill and people who leave it. Redpill things feel confusing and sometimes kinda scary to me. Maybe I also liked the idea that some people were leaving the redpill or at least the kind of negative aspects (with my blear bias) or was curious about that conversation or what that looked like for some people. And if I can give a perspective too, as a lot of the redpill guys are …

This, plus also I just wonder if your are a little older now, maybe more mature. I wouldn’t sell yourself short and say that all these positive things are just because of the red pill, it sounds like you’re growing and learning about yourself and communicating your needs and boundaries. That might just be your own personal growth. Like, ideally, no one is the same person they were 5 years ago, hopefully we all learn and develop skills. Sounds like you’re in a good place, good luck 🌻

Hi, woman here. When I was younger it was the opposite. Angry, shy, messed up/fuck up/misfit boys all the way. Because of my background (shy girl from a broken home thanks to mom’s addiction and jail time etc living in a weirdly rich neighborhood and being the total misfits in the place….but weirdly enough I was a cute redhead, I took care of my body and honestly hoped that I’d meet some guy who understood me and we could flee together, I just wanted out), I was more attracted to people who I fe…

I think it can feel like a lot of pressure to take someone’s v-card. Plus, maybe there was other stuff going on with her that made her want go stop dating, things that were just out of your hands. My best suggestion is to move forward. You’re not really a victim and the more thou see it that way, the more you’re gonna let the world tell you how to act. So it’s all your choice to be redpilled or not. I’ll recommend some books that I think are good to read. Maybe stop focusing on women and focus o…

“I may not quite get them or be frustrated with them sometimes” = me with men constantly hahahaha. But you’re right, I don’t want to hate me too either. Y’all aren’t so bad when the walls come down and we can really get to know each other. So, think about a couple things: People are hard. Loneliness is hard. Choose your hard.

Lady here, but an older one now, full disclosure, I’m 31. But that gives me some perspective. The men that I’ve loved most, truly deeply loved? Traveled with, laughed hardest with and had the best sexy times with and etc? It was cause we could bond so deeply and be our true, vulnerable selves. And help each other ease some pains and reassure each other about some fears. So we ended up not having anything to hide.

Hm, I’m sort of wondering what was said/what happened. Not knowing that makes it harder to know how to help you, you know? Like it’s harder to know what needs to be repaired/said I guess. I do think it’s possible for people to change and for friends to grow, take a break, then grow again. But sometimes it’s not possible. It sort of depends on the people and what happened/how irredeemable it might have been. Although that’s my first reaction, my second one is that no matter what, it’s a good idea…

Can I ask how you found your purpose? I imagine it took some time to figure out. I’m sure there isn’t a one-size-fits-all path to it, but maybe talking about that can help OP? Honestly having that purpose helps on the darkest days, too, cause when everything else goes down the drain (and knowing life, it likely will!) at least you still have that trust in yourself and what is most important to you to focus and fall back on. There are some solid possible side effects to knowing your purpose, too.…

I want to second this! And say that focusing on friends is key. They’re the people that will cheer you up when you’re down and the people who will help you when that first breakup happens—not to be a jag it’s just totally likely that that first one won’t work out. And you do not want that blow to ruin you. So start with friends. Odds are, they’ll help get you out if he house and introduce you to new folks, too! Best advice anyone can give!
