Hello everyone, here is the situation: I am a 19yo STEM student working hard in order to get into medical school. As a former high school endurance sport athlete, along with being pretty put together school-wise, I'd say I'm pretty cut and have high SMV despite being somewhat short. Because of my schedule, I unfortunately do not have much time for PUA and all of that. My primary objective is to get an LTR, as I want some emotional connection and someone available for sex on the regular. Additionally, I want to impress my parents and show them that I have a gf that is from a similar cultural background. I also crave showing the LTR off on IG, as that would raise my SMV even more and would open up opportunities in the future. As far as I understand, TRP is not explicitly against trying to get an LTR, as long as the person applies red pill tactics. Therefore, is it really so wrong of me to desire this? This is really my only objective: to continue raising my SMV and get a feeling of satisfaction from showing off a gf on IG and wherever else. The sex part is great but for some reason it is not the primary thing I look forward to. Another strange caveat is that part of what I'm attracted to is when girls are not interested in me, and if they're slutty it becomes a huge turnoff. Maybe I'm messed up in the head, who knows. However, I honestly don't understand why such a mindset is so frowned upon. Can someone explain?
