If you don't know if anything physical happened, you may very well have actually done something to her that legally qualifies as rape. I don't think that whole "innocent until proven guilty" thing will hold up here, and even if it does and you get out of the charges, your social circle would still hate you. You need a lawyer big time, my dude. Best of luck, but don't forget that aside from the likelihood that this is entirely a product of her mental state, you may have done something that hurt h…

Right, but I guess my specific concern is in letting someone be lost. There's definitely something to be gained from hitting rock bottom and learning to pull yourself up alone, but is it worth it? My ego says yes, but my liver and wallet say no.

Right, but do you really sit back and watch them be lost? That's why I'm saying be involved, so you can pose questions to get them thinking and have expectations so they have something driving them, stepping in to assist if needed - but if they're never left directionless, will they understand the importance of fathering? And if they are left alone, will they understand the importance of teaching their kids agency, or will they over-parent, leading to the first imposition of never being lost? It…

I'll contest this. It's a balance. Perpetual competition is the only way it can exist. The enemy of civilization is complacency and the lack of a hairy pair. Things are just too addictive and convenient these days. Too easy. Men get insecure and weak, women get entitled and depressed.

figuring this shit out yourself builds character. This is something that's bothered me for a long time. Does being fully and adeptly guided into strong independence give you an opportunity to develop true agency? If they're never given the opportunity to experience the vulnerability of having no guidance, will they understand that? Would they make a good father if they never saw how important it is to be a good father? Then, if someone had an absentee or nonexistent father, developed themselves,…

Good shit, dude. There's plenty of insecure idiots on RP that make the philosophy look bad, but really it's just about developing an understanding of your own definition of manhood and carving it into yourself. Sounds like you're doing just that. Don't forget to take opportunities to take a step back from everything and clear your perspectives on how to strategize your life in context of all this. Honestly, for things like that, I think shrooms or LSD are a fantastic way to clear psychological "…

So it's straight up just to pass genetic traits? I really don't understand why that's so important. Is it just for the sake of promotion of the most fit people, so you don't want to raise a couple of fuck-ups' kid to be successful and procreate when you could be passing on your own self-reliant genes and have them continue lineage?

The tendency of people to not face parts of their own psychology can certainly be caused by abuse, but in no way is it entirely solved by peacefulness. People still do it. Everyone. I think the reason is that people won't change unless they need to; Similar to how evolution functions: Necessity, not perfection. You just won't spend the effort altering your personality unless you perceive something as demanding it for your success. Character adapts to its environment. Unless you realize this and …

Yeah, many of the functions that people assume are still applicable are not in modern society. Largely, interpersonal relations and "social justice". I'm not saying you should constantly be cleaning up other people's shit. If someone needs to be held to something to promote a general rule for the community, do it. I'm saying there's no functional purpose here, just a generalized attitude, unless you can explain in more detail. What exactly is the difference between a kid that you create and one …

That still says nothing to the fact that you're not taking on someone else's responsibility. "Your" kid vs. an adopted kid. How is that you being taken advantage of? There will be orphaned children regardless of your decision, and taking one in does not increase or encourage it. Are you saying that mentoring is also bullshit? Extrapolate that out to teaching in general, or even parenting. Aren't you getting screwed over by raising your own kid because you could just be doing your thing, not deal…

Not everyone thinks and feels with the same type and level of instinct as you, but you're assuming it's some sort of baseline human thing. Some people are far past having a repulsion against "someone else's kid". Some people just see someone whose life they could influence for the better, regardless of who it is, and that in itself makes them want to do it. It's not like some responsibility is being passed off onto you because you're rolling over and accepting someone else's duty. The kids will …

Easy with that not caring stuff. Game depends on being aware of their emotions, just not being anxious about the outcome. Gotta be willing to fail, but using devaluation is a pretty pathetic strategy imo. It's not their emotions that are the problem, it's your insecurities.

"It might seem like chess at the start, but in reality it's just checkers" I'd say just take every opportunity given in your day-to-day life. Being better at game does not come while you're gaming, it's when you reflect on an interaction later and refer back to strategy theory. In the moment of enacting game, you're just experiencing it, not controlling it, because it's impossible to force yourself beyond what your skill level is. So just be there, do your thing, and enjoy the experience. Forcin…

Right, I think he really should have used a variety of practical examples to display how perception of problems can be skewed from what's genuinely important instead of just giving a shitty synopsis of Fight Club. I was going to reiterate how the post is still just about awareness and focus and eliminating distractions, not that it's all an external problem, but maybe this is what you're getting at: That's sort of an oxymoron.

Eh, I don't think it's so much about advertising as it is the whole dopamine response thing. It applies to much more than advertising, but advertising is an easy example which is probably why OP played to the more manipulative, useless side of advertisement.

Good points, solid comment, but I think you're projecting on everyone's perspective on it. This post is categorically referring to being more aware of the things that don't matter, that aren't pertinent to you, so you can re-work how you invest your time and attention. But yeah there will be the people that go full conspiracy theorist about it. Glad someone made a case against it. ...that being said, I sure could use a shiny new KLR.

I think that's a toxic, see-through, and frankly bullshit perspective to approach social interaction from. Caring about what people think does not mean vulnerability or insecurity. If that's where it's coming from for someone, then yeah they gotta kick that shit to the curb. You can be interested in people without it being about dependence, just about the fact that you're a human and you have a sense of value for any other human as well as social interaction in itself.

Right, well the belief that you can't break out of it is certainly going to keep you there. Maybe do some acid and figure your shit out? Is it possible that you're concerned that she's not enjoying herself? Maybe try feeling more in tune with how she's reacting to things and what she likes. Just really immerse yourself in it - not as an objective, because that'll give you anxiety. Just for fun.

Right, I think you're talking about this concept that I've become much more aware of lately. People feel vulnerable to just being their natural self, especially when they're dependent on an outcome. Because of that, they try to control everything. Forcing it like that, searching for ways to be better than your current self in the moment, causes anxiety and fucks you up when you're trying to execute. It shows others that you feel that you're too inexperienced for what you're facing. Of course, in…

That bitterness comes from your own insecurities or unrealistic expectations. Fully accepting reality includes no hatred. Sounds like you're replacing old convictions that RP has upturned with new ones. I'd say you should focus on digging up your own bullshit, staying aware of it, and fighting it. Acceptance is hard, but once you've done it, it's fucking great.

The only reason you'd hate them for being like this is out of your own insecurity. Nobody was ever entitled to anything. Sitting there playing the blame game with the laws of nature is hypocritical. It's not your environment that's holding you back, it's your own bullshit. That's what this sub is about. Noticing and retaliating against your own shitty head. It's not even about being more successful with your game, it's about being a genuine goddamn person and destroying the things blocking you f…

I don't think men are miserable because they know the game is rigged. I think the miserable ones are the ones who haven't accepted the game, haven't accepted the duality, so they only pout about the disadvantages they have and see the advantages as just a manifestation of a pessimistic system. Obviously blue pills are going to be a lot more confused and vulnerable to it.

Awesome that you pointed out the guidance bit; I think it's something a lot of guys feel compelled to do and enjoy doing, but isn't really discussed here much. I think I actually enjoy that part as much - if not more than - sex. Something about it being constructive... plus it's a huge point of value to bargain with. What kind of "advice" or "guidance" do you usually find yourself giving, and how do you implement it?

If the relationship has deteriorated to the point that you feel the need to ghost, then yeah it should probably end. Then it's up to her to decide if she wants to change and pursue again. I get what you're saying, but morality is subjective and up to the individual to decide. Point here is to make sure that your feelings of obligation are legitimate, not just culturally reinforced or out of insecurity.

Right, be realistic, don't use forced optimism to combat genuine self-esteem issues. What OP is touting, though, is confidence. Confidence does not mean expectation. It just means you don't allow unhelpful insecurities to become an obstacle to accomplishing what you want - even if those insecurities are coming from a rational belief. He never said anything about believing your are entitled to having something, just that you stay aware of yourself and don't allow beliefs of not being valuable eno…

I agree on his attitude, it reeks of overcompensation and unresolved insecurities. On the response, though, it wasn't what he said, it's how he said it. Confident mastery that they weren't able to refute the rationale of. Yeah, if they can find better, they should. Finding his attitude, though, is less common, so that grants him some time.

Fragile masculinity is actually about men overcompensating to seem more masculine when pursuing things they enjoy that they're worried will be viewed by others as feminine. I think a huge amount of RP and PUA is actually guilty of this. They push themselves to be alpha not out of fundamental self-respect but out of fear of being beta. Better than being beta and a good stepping stone to genuine manhood, but still flawed and I believe still inherently beta. Calling that fragile masculinity, though…

Right, okay. Should have clarified; When I said "I'm spotting this right off the bat", I meant how guys here seem to be having trouble understanding themselves in regards to the paradoxes involved in RP philosophy (like how we alter our behavior to game women, where that's technically allowing their bullshit to have power over our actions) and it's causing them to be more like blind RP soldiers than genuine men. Why do you think some can't keep a strong self-identity?

Why are guys having such a hard time with understanding themselves in relation to RP, then?

Grain of salt, I'm new, but here's my take: Women pick up on forced attitudes and personalities. What they like is a guy who does not give two shits about being himself and doing what he wants - even if those things are gross, embarrassing, weird, or "childish" (read: energetic). You categorically cannot both "do what you want" and be beta. Beta is doing what they want. If you want to do beta shit, you're wanting what they want of you. So what is both the most enjoyable for you and the correct w…

Yeah, I don't know what's up with this attitude here. RP is paradoxical, sure, but if you think that it's all about getting laid, you clearly don't understand it on a very fundamental level. Claiming that RP is mislead is trying to apply objectiveness to a very subjective area. Huge oversimplification... almost seems to be (hypocritically) compensating for something. I'm not familiar enough with either community to legitimately speculate on that, though.

Touchee, I meant sell yourself in such a way that she wants to sell herself to you. It's still consciously using social dynamics to achieve a desired result. Sales. Right, that's why I said genuine interest. It was in response to the bit you quoted that you claimed is "describing a beta male". I don't think selflessness inherently means begging for approval, but of course it can. Very subjective and situational.

I'm still very new here, but I've noticed a rift in philosophy between the members. It seems that maybe a certain apathy that the experienced men have is misinterpreted as intentional disregard by hurt newbies, and the hyperfocus on not being submissive bleeds into the culture so much due to fear of succumbing to it that it starts to cover up aspects of being an authentic man. It's like everyone's so afraid of having a potentially beta trait that they forgo the opportunity to explore whether it'…

But does this really mean that you can't allow yourself to be genuinely interested in a woman? Doesn't mean you have to invest in or become dependent on her.

That's fantastic that you enjoy putting that kind of effort in to show how dedicated you are to him and the relationship.

Your second guess is pretty close. You're not doing what she asks or requests, you're doing what you know she will respond well to. I think a better way of phrasing it would be "give women what they require to want you"... without being abusive, of course.

I prefer this interpretation. I mean, psychologically, the order goes instinct > philosophy (belief) > attitude > mood > behavior. So fear is the instinct when confronted with something you don't understand but which has power over you or affects you somehow. That pain evolves into a belief that it's dangerous and bad. The resulting attitude is hate towards the thing, so the mood will be anger. Behavior will be irrational and aggressive or self-destructive. The whole process is suffering, especi…

Dead? Why not just use them as workers? If the beta's going to give her resources and convenience just for a shot at holding her attention for a second, why would she want them dead? Capitalize. Get the other betas to chase him off if he creeps. Manage your market and you get what you want.

Right, they're an adult, their decisions are their burden, but a good salesman is very influential, and specifically uses tactics that subvert the client's objective thoughts to keep them in a frame that the salesman controls. That means power, or more accurately, psychological force. Using force because you think you know what's best for someone else is very dangerous, although I understand that it's necessary in any competitive environment. I'm just not sure how far to take that and whether it…

I've been putting off reading that. Guess it's time. One of the first things that helped me have a better attitude towards sales was realizing that I'm not trying to manipulate people into doing what I want, I'm just working the economy and helping match consumers to products they need. If the business isn't there, I'm not going to be able to force it and I'll waste valuable time and energy trying. I'm concerned that there's something wrong about that, though, that it's too defeatist. Thoughts?

I'm still all over the place with the long-term stuff. Gotta learn a bit more, get some experience, then I'll settle on one route. Don't wanna make the wrong decision and try to stick it out and end up square one in another industry.

What kind of consulting did you do? What kinds of places would be best to look into?

Could definitely use that. Could stand to get a little exercise, too. Any construction stuff you'd recommend I stay away from?

I'm actually going to be working for a small roofing/siding company doing field sales in the afternoon, after work - once the season picks up, that is. I only did a little last year, but I love the idea of thoroughly understanding sales. Know any good sources to study up on?

I've seen that around a lot, never actually looked into it. I was about to ask for recommendations on further reading, but I should probably just keep it simple and do what you suggested. That bit about clearly writing down the opportunity costs is likely a lot more important for me than I realize. Definitely need that kind of priority organization to my thoughts. Much appreciated. Thanks, man.

In the slew of things I should be doing, I've been forgetting about the importance of the structure that a job adds to your life. Thank you for the reminder. I know this post was pretty damn cringey, and I meant for it to be that, but I appreciate you actually putting up with this basic shit. Probably deleting this post soon. Thanks again.

Something about that re-evaluate later bit is actually really interesting, kinda made something click... somewhere. Thanks. Probably comes off as self-defeatist because I'm particularly pissed about it right now, but I really keep myself pretty optimistic and forward-thinking, just blunt about shit that I should be doing. I don't hold any assertions that I can't get shit together, just that I haven't. Or maybe I don't understand what self-defeatist means.

Confusing "fault" with "responsibility" or "burden", but otherwise nice post, good reminder, and great ending quote.

I'm in this stage right now, but I think I have an attitude that subverts the whole needing positive experience with girls to stop caring about them. I look at them as practice. Yeah, this girl is cute, but I don't need her. I'm just using her for practice, to get comfortable and learn the skills that I want to have. I don't even intend to keep her in my life ever - but hey, sweet bonus: I might. That way, I can keep the not-really-caring attitude while paying a lot of attention to how I'm perfo…

...if you have worth happiness doesn't matter That's a decent fucking line to live by. Reminds me of a bit from Vikings; "Who told you you should be happy?" Society seems hell-bent on crushing the reality that value is its own animal and that happiness is not a necessary part of its diet.

That hurts to hear. Yeah, I know the feel. Sucker for those 250's... wait, does that make me a pedo?

Enjoy the ride, yes. You could be having a much more self-respecting ride, though. You're in a manual Civic with a faulty camshaft. That MPG isn't going to go back up unless you invest to fix it, which is expensive. Wasting gas is expensive too and bad for the environment. It could be worse, it's still a car, it gets the job done, but why not sell it for a decent motorcycle that you enjoy and maintain that one? Still carries everything you need. Do you really have so much baggage that you need a…

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
