Control your woman, otherwise you are the definition of a cuck. If you have to "control your woman," you're doing it wrong. Live for you. If your wife, bartender, plate, friend, dad, boss, stranger, or whoever do something you don't approve of, get that shit out of your reality. You don't have time for that shit. Too many of the comments here are caring too much about the detractors and wife. This dude just needs to not give a shit. The fact he gives a shit is exactly why his wife is doing what …

That Time I Almost Married A Narcissist Just five minutes into the session and the therapist had identified the cause of an entire year's worth of torment and, just three days earlier, had ended with me having an emotional meltdown. The clarity was sobering, but absolutely devastating. Flipping through a large blue book full of colorful bookmarks sitting on her lap, the therapist began reading, "The narcissist personality disorder is indicated by identifying the individual with at least five of …

The only thing you should be using the app for is knowing when you need throw in some beta (i.e. shark week), but for the most part, you should always just do you. Stop caring about her. You should have fun with her being gone—do something with the boys, go for a hike, etc. You seem to care too much about her sexual intentions. If she wants to fuck some guy while out of state, that's on you. If she texts you sexy things she wants to do you when she returns, that's on you. If anything, you want h…

I like to think of it as "I am the source of value in my life." Seeing yourself as "the prize" has a bit of arrogance to it. It makes you seem clueless to the reality you actually live in. When you think of yourself as the source of value, you realize that you are responsible for any happiness, wealth or any other positive experience in your life, you begin thinking more RP. Then once you've cultivated it, you can dole it out as a prize.

Right right. I see this. She doesn't want WK to stand up for himself so this is why she let's him feed her hamster and continue to WK, even though I see how it kills their relationship and is clearly killing her relationship with her sister. Funny thing is I've seen and heard of her attraction to other men—it's blatant. The other strange part is, he's got no bux, so I don't know what she sees in him. They recently moved in together and while he's the only one working, Cat has to spend money out …

Solid solid advice. Thanks. I have made great strides at befriending WK. I'll go to him for new music, since that's kind of his thing, or send him a random text here in there, and my SO knows this despite it falling flat on his ears. That said, I think inviting him out on a little alone time would go a long way for the family seeing me being the bigger man. I do feel they are dismissing his concerns. The MIL and I have a solid relationship. I should spend more time bonding with the FIL. The MIL …

This. And you can't make a big fucking deal about it. Trust me, I know you want her to notice that you're pulling away or not giving a shit, but she will know you're trying. The whole point is to just live your fucking life the way you want without losing your cool or being influenced by others in it. Don't focus at all on her, but on you. Don't make sex such a big deal. Saying you don't care only shows that you care (Acta non verba). She will follow if you are doing it right and you have SMV th…

Unlearn the behavior of punching yourself in the "feels" in response to another person's actions. It's YOUR brain, take responsibility for it. Fuck, I needed this. Thanks for sharing.

If you worry too much about controlling a certain woman's emotions, you WILL end up frustrated. THIS. It's the worst of situations. What's worse, is you cannot reason with her the truth and you'll likely act out out of frustration, giving her all the evidence her hamster needs to corner you into some shit situation. Don't waste your time. Run.

We understand your question, "How do I get a girl to stick with me for as long as possible?", but the fact that you even ask this question is proof that you have not yet read the material and hence the suggestion that this sub may not be for you.

Read Married Man Sex Life Primer. Read my post "How to Keep Women Around: Live For You". Also, I've got a news flash for you, sex has one purpose and one purpose only: procreation. I acknowledge your desire for avoiding meaningless sex, but this smells of BP touchy feely bullshit. What you really want is to fuck healthy, capable, trustworthy women. If you want exclusivity in that, then you need to read MMSLP. Don't set your sights on women. To get women, you need first and foremost start living …

You're mistaken in your understanding of SMV. I suggest you read my post "How to Keep Women Around: Live For You". These are the things that drive up your SMV. It's "sexual market value". Value is key here. You have to be valuable in order to be sexually attractive. That value is first and foremost biologically driven. Biologically, your woman cannot help herself being attracted to physically fit men who are capable of providing her healthy offspring. Some are better at hiding their tingles (per…

This started as a reply to an earlier post "Reunion weekend, dread games, and a PUA" where the OP was struggling with a Chad and his SO. I thought I would share it here. Dude, it's like I'm living in a parallel universe with you. I deal with the same exact shit with my HB8 just about anytime we're at a social gathering. I also have a spider sense for PUAs (as I learnt and practiced PUA shit myself prior to my SO, but unfortunately after discovering TRP/MRP). The good thing about all this is it's…

A magician never reveals his secrets. You need to lead. It sucks being alone in your life once you swallow the pill, I know, but take that aggression out lifting. Your life has taken time to change; it will take time for your family to change. They will follow if you create value and if they don't, they're worth leaving behind.

There's something to be said about having beta friends. If you have beta friends, it's because: (a) Your frame isn't strong enough yet—you've not improved yourself enough yet to have other TRP alpha friends. (b) They're family, a childhood friend, a colleague or an acquaintance that you have some connection with where dropping them is simply not possible or costly. That said, regarding (b), I've unknowingly employed a beta friend strategy for several years before TRP from old PUA shit I learned …

This whole "SHE is lucky to have you" stinks of happy go lucky bullshit. She's only lucky to have you if you're actually worth having. Invest in yourself. Be worth having. Know it by the disappearing of shit tests.

I will say, though, that women do like aggressiveness. If a dickbag tries to undercut you, you've got to put that guy in his place—best done through total dismissal—or you risk coming across as weak, even if the guy is a total dickbag and his sucker punch is weak at best.

This is excellent and so true. I've hooked up with "goody goody angel" chicks in the past completely because they knew they wouldn't get caught. We'd be at my isolated bachelor pad. I didn't know any of their friends. The sense of security and sexual attraction basically added up to them unleashing their sexual nature on me with no remorse.

Fuck yes! I wrote a very similar post a few weeks back (How to Keep Women Around: Live For You). Great dig on Maslow's self-actualization. I've fortunately possessed a lot of these characteristics innately, but for a long time I was living for women—I wanted their approval and that's where I found my satisfaction, but inevitably, it always faltered and never lived up to my expectations. It wasn't until I realized that chasing women actually chases them away and that women cannot provide me that …

These LTR FRs are encouraging as I too discovered TRP after already starting an LTR. Most TRP advice is to just "find a new plate," but I think there is some room for discussion around "molding" LTRs if it's not already too late and you (like myself and yourself) already have RP tendencies. Good stuff! Keep us updated. TRP has helped me gain and maintain my frame in the LTR frame well. I've learned to check my ego at the door, treat her as a child, and to stay stoically outcome independent, much…

Notice how I said "value." I know of broke hippy friends that pull plenty of girls due to their affluence with their crowd. In college, there's a lot of you that are broke, but you can still have value outside of money. Sure there's frat bros with cash to throw around, but you can demonstrate value by your potential, looks and ability to have fun.

Age. Women like older men: maturity, affluence, experience (in life and with women), and generally intelligence. At 22, you need to show you have that value: looks (posture, fashion and body—don't be a douche with a shirtless pic unless it makes sense), money, throw big parties (social influence), have fun (adventure and intrigue), have lots of other high-value friends, and that you are good with women (pics of having fun with other women). Just some suggestions.

I think it's completely unrealistic to expect women to not fuck up. Could you find a women who will suck your dick all day and respect your every command—sure, but you better be the biggest fucking bad ass alpha that ever existed, the XX man, or Dan Blizerian. Not all women are RP women. Not all of us RP wannabes are true RP men. Finding RP women for an LTR can prove difficult. Some other RP on here my say otherwise, but everyone, you, me, men and women, fuck up. Some shit is more forgivable tha…

Solid advice. Asterix here is key—it's a shit-test of sorts. I went through a similar experience recently. LTR was to have a "friendly" meet up with a BP male colleague outside of work she told me she was "too nice to say no" to. I went monk mode. Withdrew myself. Worked out hard. Proactively flirted with other women. Focused on other women. She realized my disappoint in her without words. I didn't ignore her completely, but I proved through my actions I didn't need her and wouldn't put up with …

If these girls aren't texting you, that's not an indication of improving. In fact, if you were improving, they should be texting you, but because of AFux, not BBux like in your pre-TRP days. That said, you really shouldn't give a shit about these girls. The fact you're even thinking about them or bringing them up is problematic. Forget about them. Hang with the dudes. Keep working on you. Let them see what they're missing. Let them come to you.

Manipulating someone in this way is low value behavior. Leave him behind because you've exceeded his beta-ness and your sphere of influence includes other high value alphas. If you can't ditch him, then provide him value or avoid him. If you want quality plates or an LTR, you've got to be a high value quality man. Women pickup on when you're just being an alpha douche or an alpha red pill. Low quality women generally accept douches. Just depends what you're after and who you keep in your sphere.…

I always use the expression, "I'll sleep when I'm dead." That isn't to say that workaholism is valid. Not spending time with your family, friends and women is a poor choice. It's about balance, working smarter, not necessarily harder.

I didn't say you can't have compassion and provide for those you deem fit—that is creating and providing value, as I mention—but you can't create and share your value if you don't live for you. Part of being able to provide requires that you put yourself first so you can provide emotionally, economically and physically and ensure that others will follow and support you in your ambitions.

Appreciate the sentiment, but there's a difference between being alpha and being a douche. (Lower quality babes will still go for douches so have no fear if you wanna join the dick carrousel.) ;)

My engineering school's alma mater was "Learn by doing"—I think that best applies here as well. Read things. Apply them as soon as possible. Learn what works. Science. The biggest breakthrough in mind-blowing sex for me (in addition to improving my SMV) was to attain sexual confidence: I am a sexual being. I fuck women. I want to fuck you. I want you to know I want to fuck you. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that and everything follows suit. I always tell girls at some point in a relation…

Turning an LTR into a plate compromises a man's values (beta behavior). He's got expectations. She failed to meet them. He's got no time for liars or cheats on the way to his successes. He will have a hard time attracting other quality women if he settles for fucking low-quality women like that. Set the bar high. Don't move it because you're lazy.

Self-improvement has got to be a personal vendetta against yourself. Internalize that. Don't become a lazy SOB. This is a lifetime journey. The right women will always be attracted to the man that gives no shits about anything, but improving himself and the wellness of those in his sphere (creating value). If she's not attracted, she's the one at the loss. If she's not at a loss, then that's your fault—suck it up—you got out gamed and she won the hypergamy game. Do these things your entire life:…

Read this on Friday after pulling some rather beta shit with my girlfriend and wrote your Epictetus quote on my whiteboard of my refrigerator. Proceeded to have mind-blowing sex with girlfriend nearly a dozen times over the weekend and completely recouped my Game losses by attaining my stoic OI Frame. Golden stuff. Thanks.
