No, this will be a defining experience for you as a man. You can love with abandon realizing it is finite. You can experience something pure without the horrors that come in time. Most importantly, you can make a choice which will make you a better man and allow you to live your life going forward without regret. And that's what the red pill is really about. I don't envy you but once you push past the difficulty of this period & the grief of the loss you will be in a very strong place.

Good academic research exists of historical examples of 'excess males' who usually join the military and are then used in wars. Polygamy tends to create surplus males for reasons above.

There is another historical analogue in the 2nd and 3rd sons of the british lords & gentry being forced out of their father's lands by primogeniture resulting in their expeditionary mindset which built the british empire, and was also channeled into scientific endevours. Was quite good for the society, I recall.

There are a large # of them because they are failures at getting and/or keeping a man. So toxic and self-centered that they never married? Or divorced perfectly good men for a last frenzied run on the CC before realizing that age is more than just a number for women. Remember - men age like wine, women age like milk. Why you would ever want to pick through the leftovers is beyond me, unless you are particularly masochistic.

Amazing how there is this subset of women who are looking for guys 15+ years older. I haven't reliably been able to identify who they are, so for me its approach, approach, approach and let the numbers sort them out for me. My only guide is that they are for me found between 21-27 and 38+ with the 28-37 age range less profitable (but not undoable), but I'm avoiding single moms which will skew things in that age category.

And you know, 90% of the kids on here will be like 'You are BS'ing'. About 3 years ago, I would have thought the same thing. But when you take the pill and apply the principles, it actually happens for you as an older guy!

No sex = no relationship. Suggest to them that you support their abstinence if they will support you becoming polyamorous. See? Problem solved. They can have their abstinence, you can have your sex, and all of you can be in a relationship together. Hell, you'll even let her watch, good guy that you are.

I struggle with this.

Being more religious than most I struggled in this circumstance too. Right there in Matthew: you are allowed to divorce for sexual immorality ( infidelity) or abandonment. While God hates divorce, he is not unmerciful either, hence Jesus. I believe that more than just one non-premeditated drunken romp followed immediately by full disclosure and real serious penance & penitence = unrepentant sexual immorality as defined biblically. I think a lot of guys here would say even that is too lenient. Bu…

I'm not entirely sure about this. If you are mid-40's and haven't been married, it is an indication that no woman found you suitable for marriage and I believe it functions as negative pre-selection. Maybe I'm talking my own book here, but female orbiter friends > 35 seem to confirm (yeah, I know, don't listen to what they say, yadda yadda).

Keep in mind that women with kids and ex-husbands fail the relationship test. They were unable to keep their family intact, for whatever reason. While there are some legitimate exceptions, more often much shared responsiblity is the norm.

They do so until they either realize that they are just getting repeatedly pumped & dumped and try to lock down a new pr…

He's not mate-guarding. That's a beta behaviour. He knows that he can send her with this guy, and she comes home to him, because he's the alpha.

Non-sex worker women can marry up easily due to female infanticide via ultrasound sex checks causing a lopsided male/female ratio. (more males/less females like 112:100 or worse if I recall) Might not be as relevant in Asia as the middle east though. I think the violent tendencies of surplus male populations is a real thing.

I cannot upvote this comment enough. You are a smart man, though a bit hyperbolic. I think it is more like waha bbism being used for control and political purposes by the Sauds. Surplus males ensnared by that are readily manipulated, especially if they are under-educated. Of course the kicker with polygyny is that high status males will have multiple wives and other men will zero... alpha taken to its extreme conclusion.

No, they cultivate hobbies and interests to prove they are more 'interesting' and raise their standards since they "now know what they want." After getting fucked and chucked for the better part of their 40's and ignored in their early 50's, they are either resolute spinsters or finally willing to settle.

Women only hate being hit on if they think your SMV is less than theirs. Raise your SMV. Don't be afraid to talk to women at the gym-talking is not hitting on them explicitly.

It is so true that abundance allows you to flick the switch on your attraction on or off. Was on my way out to meet a plate when a new potential plate got ornery and started making potential demands. Absolutely unacceptable so I hard Nexted her. Didn't lose a bit of sleep over it. Switch off.

And nowhere in the article do you read that he is also "slaying it" with other women. Because he is economically dependent on her. So he chooses to embrace this reality.

Your intellect and subconcious/emotions are not necessarily aligned, so: You don't miss her. You miss the idealized construct of her. That person is not and was never real. It will take time for your psyche to trust the truth of that realization. Time is on your side. A day at a time if necessary. Give yourself permission to feel, but actions must not be decided by your feelings. That's a non-male trait. Keep spinning plates. Abundance and numbers create distance.

Being a widower is tough - you need to go through your normal grief reaction to the loss of your spouse. However, at a certain point normal grief becomes abnormal; if you are having trouble functioning, etc... depression might be a real possibility and you should seek professional help.

Oh, I have no iillusion that her entire family and new friend network were telling her to next me. "You're still young enough and pretty enough to find another man." So, she did. But that guy was a PUA himself (found this out through back channels) and she got played. So when he nexted her, her branch swing failed, and she looks back at me. Hampster spins, "You know, he wasn't really that bad and maybe my friends judged him too harshly."

Yup. Setting myself up for never ending shit and comfort tests, running dread and always watching my back. Sounds fun. But she will no longer be a major focus of my life - she'll be there for the kids and my convenience and I'll focus on what makes me happy. If she is there sufficiently sexually then I won't have to slut around myself and can focus on other stuff. This concept of marriage sounds basically medieval to me, but it is what it is.

So teaching children to destroy 80% of your net worth in a fruitless divorce battle that kicks both parents out of the upper class, limits their education and enrichment and prevents them from growing up socially dominant and well adjusted is "healthy behaviour"? I have a hard time reconciling that despite my desire to occupy the moral high ground for myself.
/r/MarriedRedPill17/01/16 05:02 PM

Because (if you read the literature and reflected in real life) all children desperately want is for their two parents to be together and happy. They know something happened, they don't know what. I won't tell them until they are 18 because from what my plates have told me, this revelation caused them irreparable damage with the parent who committed the infidelity, leading to cessation of relations with some of them. Its not in the children's best interests to know this yet.

Of course a serious post-nup would be necessary for any cessation of the divorce action. Horses have left the gate on that one already though, so while some assets are in trust, others are not. Also trusts not 100%, sorry to tell you as your spouse is a 'super-creditor' in the eyes of the law it seems.

Yes, but. For those of us in our 40's who discovered TRP, the concept of slaying it with a 20-something can be daunting. So, we effectively settle for what we know - women our own age.

First observation: You haven't internalized the red pill yet. You said,"I thought I had found the one recently." TRP instructs you that "oneitis" is a beta phenomenon. The gal who put you in the friendzone sees you as a beta and will always see you that way. You need to move on - you're not going to get what you want from her.
