I have been in an LTR with this woman for the last 5 months. I discovered TRP after being with her for about 3 months or so. After being TRP-aware, I realized I fucked up by even getting into an LTR with this woman to begin with. She is honestly just plate material. But I am an LTR type guy, so I figure I will practice TRP shit on her and experiment, so to speak.
In the beginning the relationship was great, I exhibited alpha-like qualities. However, I completely lost frame a few times. In an attempt to recover, I have started running serious dread game on this girl (I might even say I have been a bit rambo-ish with the dread) and it has been working wonderfully. It has made her more insecure, asking me how come I haven't asked to see her if I go a few days without seeing her, asking me if other girls were checking me out at a bar I went to, shit like that. But the problem is she is constantly bombarding me with shit tests. They never stop. A couple weeks ago while we were drinking a bottle of wine together she said to me:
"You're definitely the most stubborn male I have ever dealt with. All of the previous guys I dated would break so easily, but you just won't break for some reason.". I said to her, "that's because they're bitches". She laughed and said "yeah".
I take this as a compliment, but isn't this a red flag? I mean, it seems like she is CONSCIOUSLY testing me and trying to break my frame. When the fuck will the tests end? It she just a broken bitch?
I anticipate this relationship coming to an end soon anyway, so I am just gaining experience with it while I can. Another question, which may deserve a post of its own, but fuck it: One of the reasons why I consider her not LTR material is because she's a heavy drinker and likes to go out to clubs, bars, and parties. She has only gone a few times since we have been together (the last 5 months), but she plans on going more often as summer comes along. She has a party coming up at a nightclub that she wants to go to with her girlfriends and of course I am not invited. I am thinking of using VasiliyZaitzev's line. Here it is, edited to fit my situation: " "Well, about the club/bar. I am certainly not telling you that you cannot go, but I know what these things are like, and I can tell you that 'my girlfriend' does not go to them unaccompanied by me. But it is still your choice to go or not go."
Does this come across as mate guarding? I do not want to come across as controlling, but at the same time, I know what I want, and it's not to LTR a party girl. I figure I might as well try this as an experiment. I mean, I feel I have nothing to lose at this point anyway. I definitely still have blue pill tendencies/thoughts and am working on internalizing TRP, so I want to make sure I am doing this right.
