I've been lurking on here quite some time, I don't usually attach stereotypes or come with predetermined opinion. But I was a sheep and followed the same mentality of the rest of Reddit in regards to the bad opinions about this forum. But over my reflections this sub-reddit is probably one of the best, most informative and most helpful sub-reddit.
My reason? Here's my story.
I'm a 19 year old living in England, I live in the middle of nowhere and have a few good friends. Two years ago I got my first girlfriend and she pulled the curtain of love over my eyes as we were happy with each other and had no care in the world. Of course the problem was that I felt everything was all good, she broke up with me a year ago and went out with someone who I thought was a friend of mine. As usual what I'm sure everyone here has probably gone through, I had the whole broken heart drinking and being fed up stage.
Halfway through the year slightly less heartbroken I go volunteering, it helps me. I meet someone nice, I enjoy her company. On the last weekend I find out she was cheating on me with several other guys throughout the time I was there with her.
When I got back it took me three months to find a job, anyone looking for a job I feel for you because its really hard! But I found a job working somewhere nice, at least I thought that. It was filled with twats, people who only thought about how good their own fucking hair cut was. The company was going to kick me out, let me know this, sat me down in meetings. I left. Really had it with people telling me I'm shit and can't do anything.
About a month ago I found a new job working in telesales. But there was this girl at work I really liked, turned out she was my boss's sister. Three weeks ago I really fell for her, we really enjoyed each others company and part of me hoped that things would really go far. As usual she was just with me for the excuse of being with me, I probably won't see her again because she is leaving.
Just so annoyed that I would ever let anyone walk all over me like that, now I'm starting to see the world as if I have been born again. People stepping over each other, no one caring, people cheating, just isn't as nice a place as I thought it was.
Truth is I want to take the red pill and never go back to getting walked over and fucked over ever again.
So what do I do now? How do I take the red pill?
