I'd like to see what a pretend Bumble profile of a wife would look like...if it was written by her husband on r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen writing from the perspective of when he first met her (with before/after pictures). Something like, "Before we have sex for the first time when I'm 19 and you're X, we'll both get tested for STD's, share the results with each other, and have an adult conversation of the multiple simultaneous contraception methods we'll use, shop for those methods together, and wha…

Empirical evidence of how powerful a women's projected social narrative to the outside world is to them, in this case she willfully chases it right off the cliff of her career and smacks down into the valley below, Wile E. Coyote-style. Holding onto her digital evidence-refuted hamster to tell others (especially other women) was more important to her than rationally hanging onto her career and future income potential. The best part for her is she'll find some Billy Beta that buys into her sob st…

Yep. It's complex, and as always, retain an attorney, preferably alongside a CPA and tax attorney if your estate is sophisticated/complex. When the boys I mentor grow into teenagers, I'll start introducing them to the concept of trusts, arranging their financial lives to establish all the forms of insurance they might need in a family, and designate a trust as a beneficiary, well before marriage enters their pictures. OP may well and truly be fucked by not planning ahead, as I doubt there is a j…

Too much depends upon the individual's specific financial situation and the governing jurisdictions to give a good generalization, so take the following as just some thumbnail sketches of possibilities. It isn't just life insurance that I was thinking of, but also other types of insurance that might be jointly assigned beneficiaries and/or coverage, like short- and long-term disability, car, house, etc. Until ordered by a court, or if you live in a particularly shitty jurisdiction, you don't hav…

You have a lot of work to do within a very brief time period. Telegraphing your intentions gave away your best advantage as a father in family law litigation: surprise. I'm not clear what you took away from the sidebar material on Divorce Advice that led you to pre-announce your intent. Please let us know how you interpreted that material to mean "tell my wife I'm going to the attorney before I meet the attorney". There is still a lot you can do and prevail in the end. Document everything you do…

Tripadvisor deleted a comment thread about this incident, and it doesn't show up anywhere in their forum threads for Rimini. Take this into account when you research tourist destinations. The Polish Deputy Minister Patryk Jaki Twitted "For #rimini there should be the death penalty for these bastards. Although for this particular case I would also bring back torture." He was made to walk that back by the cucked SJW media. Death penalty is banned in Poland, anyways. In the future, we might see Chi…

Verify whether or not your colleague knew about the bitch beforehand, and do your own scouting to figure out if you were submarined. That is, did your colleague send you there knowing you might run into her? I've seen this happen especially in organizations that stack rank, or in some way pit employees against each other. Lesson to learn from this: your work persona to people you only know professionally at work never reveals any aspect of your personal life. Professionalism protects you from sh…

This only happens if readers fail to discriminate between words on the screen from actual accomplishment. On the Internet, no one knows if you really are lifting at 90%+ of your genetic potential, spinning plates, etc. Trust no words on the screen and instead trust only after-the-fact delivered results for your own individual effort. There is no "spark". That's theory-cra…

But in the business world a keto only based diet is going to fail most people and be almost not feasible. Staying on keto takes some creativity in business, but generally follow these guidelines and you'll be fine. These are mostly guidelines for sensible business meals. My point of reference is taking different clients to business meals every month, from hole-in-the-wall dives with reknown to $300+ USD per person---before drinks---Michelin-starred coat-and-tie affairs.

These are temporary effects as your metabolism switches from breaking carbs to breaking fat for energy. It is called "keto flu", and lasts from a week for the lucky ones, two weeks for most, and three weeks for the unlucky ones.

Comfort Test: Is he a rock I can build on, or a rock that will break me. I think of it more as: Is he a rock that the world will break upon, or a rock that will break me? A rock she builds on turns a man into a Beta Bucks foundation. A man that the world crashes upon and breaks is the resolute and immovable force she has a choice to follow, but by definition cannot move herself. Benefit of thinking it this way: both Shit and Comfort Tests are subsumed into a single thought. Shit Test is her bein…

On the contrary, these absolute beginner FR's are necessary to show to others just starting out what those first steps and first days on TRP look like on a tactical level. Most FR's are from men already well on their way, with tangential mentions of how they started, giving insufficient granular details to new subscribers of just how and in what context they started. It's easy for those who have been practicing the philosophy for years to tell newbies "just pick something, anything, and start". …

Sharing like this per se usually won't move the self-improvement needle in someone, it typically only cracks open the door to questions in a small fraction of kids. The field reports we read here of white knight betas refusing RP truths repeatedly demonstrate that in spades each month. Leading by example is more effective. In that context though, information packaged like this becomes useful, like handing a pre-teen a copy of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations. You can be a badass alpha on your own ea…

LLC You don't need to show any income at all to form an LLC. The real question to ask is how much you want to pay in tax preparation costs per year until you start flowing income through the LLC, that is assuming you want someone else to do it for you (which can be worth if you don't have the time to wrestle with state tax laws on top of Federal). You also don't need to show income to maintain the LLC for a few years, within reason. But you still need to file tax forms each year, even if showing…

I guess I've never actually seen a woman end up alone honestly either. No matter how unattractive, I still see them all married around me. I'm not really sure where these anecdotes of single older women even come from? You haven't lived long enough to accumulate sufficient anecdotal experience to match the statistical realities, simple as that. By the numbers, in the US, there are more women than men, and of those, 48% are single. The age distribution shows 35% of that 48% single female cohort (…

I am guessing you are very young, still in the anger phase, or you have really misread the sidebar material. Everything you cite is aggregate data. Most of it is actually even true. In aggregate. You, however, do not live a life of aggregates. Nobody does. You live you. TRP lays out a toolbox that helps you visualize what you need to do to accomplish "living you". Note very carefully: I specifically did not say TRP "gives" you anything, nor helps you "do" anything. There are reasons for that. Th…

...the younger ones still don't and I want to keep it that way for a while. I've first-hand seen the results when children are made aware of family wealth too soon, and it is ugly. It stunts and atrophies any spark of self-motivation to achieve. If you have to wife up a woman for children, make absolutely sure she is on board with TRP-informed stoicism and the general proclivity to conceal power/money as advocated by 48 Laws. Most women are not appropriate child-rearing wife material, as they to…

It's fun to think of ways to come up with the equivalent in this situation of the big reveal that a guy has had a vasectomy since before first meeting a woman who is trying to rope him into raising a bastard. When your criminal record (and by direct extension as a man, your financial future) is on the line though, you get an attorney and find out the proper legal preparation for sure.

Do not try to play lawyer. In fact, even if you are an attorney, STILL do not play lawyer in a specialization you don't practice in. What lay people consider "reasonable doubt" has no bearing upon what is actually, legally accepted as reasonable doubt in a court. More importantly, how to get to the point of legally considering reasonable doubt bears only faint resemblance to real world rationality. Get. An. Attorney.

The idea of using the GPS on your phone to prove where you were is good, but I would be concerned about getting cooperation from the phone company and law enforcement to produce the necessary records to exonerate you should a false rape charge be leveled.

There are nuances, but TRP truths are still reinforced in the final results even after taking these nuances into account; I didn't want to derail my original post's emphasis upon the TRP applicability with the (admittedly fascinating) scientific and statistical details.

In the US, a 1% personal income last year is $380,354; 5% is $159,619. A successfully-led marriage of a high-quality woman is used by some married alphas as one of their signaling mechanisms of their dominance, to both other alphas and the world at large. Marriage is described as TRP on hard mode here for good reason, and that attribute has positive communications value in certain (usually, but not always necessarily high-income) circles.

If he continues the marriage for whatever reason, a condition he should enforce is a post-nuptial/post-marriage/marriage agreement with terms to protect his financial assets; the equivalent of a pre-nuptial, signed during the marriage. And he needs to find a very high-end divorce attorney to draw it up and ensure that the agreement cannot be nullified by coercion claims during divorce proceedings.

If you don't carefully monitor staying in ketosis or your blood sugars, then even if you eat a "keto" diet you can still be in low T. A goal of 80% of calories from fats, below 120 mg/dL max post-meal blood sugar spike, and 20 grams of net carbs per day for example (over on the hardcore side of the keto spectrum), works out to roughly 60% of the mass of your food on your plate needs to be fat, and 40% mass is protein, with a significant fraction of those net carbs easily coming from just a few w…

If you live in the developed world, have a median or better continuously-applied IQ, a consistent work ethic, and absorb the sidebar material, then the good money and good career are almost a given. I see two factors sap young guys' financial/career potential more than anything else: failure to apply a consistent work ethic over a long timespan, and being beta.

Then this statement will make sense: You are still carrying her, and that heavy load is not worthy of an RP Man.

Agreed, that is why I tried to short-hand that by qualifying with the "genuine desire" term. If a girl genuinely desires you, she will undertake quite a lot of personal discomfort to please you. Internalizing personal finance and fitness are among the better goals to suffer some discomfort through, for sure.

It is a rare, rare woman who internalizes the kind of opportunity cost and sacrifice for a man to hand money over to a family instead of living a bachelor life. Women see numbers, and money is entirely abstract and only the means to a hypergamous end to most of them.

What few discussions I've seen about this have carried through the view of TRP-as-sexual-strategy, and as such a lot assume TRP-context for fathers starts around the same time when puberty starts. I disagree. Fathers who plan on having sons must deal with TRP-related decisions before the children are born, and from pre-verbal stages onwards.

That preference doesn't displace the "bad boys", it is an expanded circle of hypergamous selection. If the nerdy type wasn't associated with high-5 and 6-figure incomes, like back in the 90's, then the nerdy type wouldn't rank near the bad boys for selection today.

The whole "take it to the shop" and "cooking is for losers" you are observing is a form of hypergamy.

In a Western economy, in a traditional stay-at-home-mother marriage, you will have to get pretty creative to make your statement true.

Especially if you are in any kind of sales work, if you have 3 years of living expenses piled away, it can positively affect your sales posture.

With an aim towards raising an independent-minded RPW or RPM, some that occur to me are (and much of this is not very much different than RP principles dealing with women): Maintain frame.

In-depth review by Philip Greenspun, from a showing he attended where there was a mediated discussion afterwards with many participants from the divorce industry in Massachusetts. Some interesting observations about the Massachusetts divorce industry that came out of the post-showing discussion: For all practical purposes, once the Temporary Order is set, the primary outlines of the divorce settlement are permanent from that point forward. Regardless of the amount spent on lawyers. Divorce can a…

There comes a point when the maturation and evolution of your game ceases as an identifiable activity you consciously or semi-consciously perform, and is simply part of who you are. You can still reflect upon your daily activities and draw out specific sets of decisions that comprise "game", and apply analysis to improve it if desired, but only in the way you would self-improve a sales presentation you just performed, for instance. You're aware of its existence, but it is part of yourself you ca…

It's not about the girls. It's about the challenge and development required to do so. That is indeed a challenge. Also consider that there is an even more challenging hard mode goal that could let you have your cake and eat it, too, without making what might in retrospect turn out to be an impulsive divorce decision; at some level, even as an AFC beta, you qualified your wife, and that doesn't necessarily mean she won't still qualify when you are alpha. Get a mistress, or mistresses. Until you a…

Some questions for introspection. Why is "become a full man" for you contingent upon fucking hotter and hotter girls? If she responded to your change into a pilot in the marriage, would she follow your lead on a decision of children or no children? Why is staying inside a marriage related to a safety net? What purpose does marriage fill for you? Some comments for others, not necessarily aimed at you since I don't have the full picture of your situation, but these are definitely in reaction to yo…

He might be too young, but let him find his own way; he could end up ahead of the curve. Some men need a period of solitude to find their own way, though not to live like that forever (though it might seem and most might claim that it will be forever). It helps them center themselves, to develop the accomplishments, then confidence necessary to create their own style of finding and sucking the marrow out of his brief life. He knows where TRP is, and will use TRP principles when the time is right…

Read Confessions of a Reformed InCel for some insight. The author describes at the root of the debilitating psychological effects already mentioned in some responses to you, is the foreboding sense that literally about half of the human species (using those that you have met and approached as an illusory randomized sample) does not perceive you as essentially human. Combined with the deep social conditioning of most cultures around the world that pre-programs most males to seek that external val…

Parasitism is not natural to women. That's angry-bitter talk. Most women are conditioned from early on into taking-via-acceptance. Constant BP offering behaviors around them evolves this into taking-via-entitlement when left rampantly unchecked. RP men set clear boundaries and expectations on what is offered for taking, the acceptable conditions for the man under which he offers, and the consequences for not meeting those conditions. This is not even behavior specific to women. It is simply an a…

If you overheat a non-stick pan that use polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE, most non-stick formulations use this) and place a bird in the vicinity, the bird will die from the fumes. Most residential kitchens cannot bring a pan to above 300° C, and you need dozens of pans overheating at 400° C before immediate human toxicity becomes a concern; we don't yet know the impact of chronic exposure to low-level heating of PTFE. There is also PFOA found outgassing in much of this non-stick cookware when heate…

No, the "this guy is BP mental/stupid" line of thought is right. Let the station attendant handle it, they have this sort of situation addressed in their procedures manual even if they forget their training. One method is park car, hand keys over to gas station, call cab or a friend to give them a ride home, cab/catch ride over to home, get wallet/purse, return, pay everyone. Consequences. Accountability. Bitches. I drop 50% tips without a second's hesitation for excellent service at eateries wh…

TRP truth is you are on your own. The sooner you realize that and make it actionable intelligence, the sooner you will cut loose of this situation and improve yourself. You are about to start college, and have your own shit to clean up on top of that. You are not your dad's babysitter. He's drowning you in toxic mediocrity, recognize but don't get entangled into it; you have more than enough on your own hands with a program of self-improvement over the next 5-10 years. Unless your dad did someth…

A 10-odd year difference written about in the article is not at all unreasonable. You are matching a man and woman approaching their respective peak SMVs. Women often complain about how it takes men so long to "mature". These guys are more mature than the college-aged guys, so I don't see any problems here. I'm more interested in hearing from these guys themselves as to how often they run into girls that young during Spring Break that are hot enough to attract initial interest, and on closer int…

Perhaps it is more a contextual/situational balance than a straight blend-like balance. Depending upon the circumstances, I dial up or down the alpha frame I hold. If we're going out on the town, I get the kids a nanny to watch them 3p-3a, I call a car service to drive us around and hold our stuff while we go clubbing, she's gone to get her legs and pussy waxed several days in advance, she dresses to the nines, puts on lingerie she knows I'm into and we are smashing afterwards, I don't mind goin…

Think of moving the wealth needle as a risk-reward spectrum that changes over time and consistency of application over time. This last part is the one that gets most people in trouble. I feel like bantering about personal finance today, so wall of text coming up. The following only applies to the US because that is my primary experience (though I've lived elsewhere I feel most comfortable in the US). If you are young, like 15-18, and maintain frame within a reasonably-chosen field, you can take …

The slightest BP behavior will absolutely destroy you in business. People (not just women) smell that from a mile away, and won't hesitate to demand all kinds of free shit if they detect it. The only way you'll hit three figure rates and have a crack at starting to build real wealth later using what you save from those rates to build actual wealth generators, is to RP everyone you meet in business. The fastest way to learn this is to do your own selling. BP completely undermines your negotiating…

If you recognize poor impulse control around food, look further in and honestly evaluate if the impulse control is truly psychological in nature (you're eating food to compensate for something else in life) or you really are responding more to physical hunger signals. If you have constant hunger signals, start testing your blood sugar levels. Some of the latest research in Type 2 diabetes (T2D) that has not made it out to general awareness yet is starting to suggest that the presence of a specif…
