I swallowed the red pill today

you're not as smart as you think -- get smarter. Read so you know what exists. Write so you know how to think. Talk to people so you know how to express yourself.

You're not as built as you think -- get stronger. Stretch so you move properly. Lift so you can move a lot. Pick a(nother) sport so you can compete and begin to excel at something.

You're not as interesting as you think -- get hobbies. Learn more about yourself so you have shit to explore. Ask others about their hobbies so you can understand their perspectives. Meet people and be interested and people will find you interesting.

Your mindset did fuck you over -- don't let it keep you fucked over.

Good job for the first step...
Now it's the time to exhaust the sidebar!

I don't think that you can change your outlook on life in a day just like that. Obviously your concious mind thinks that it makes sense, and that's a good first step, but it's even more important to change your way of thinking on a subconcious level.

Its not that easy, you cant learn everything you need to learn in one day.

I mention this a lot but check out Patrice O Neal's stuff about women. He's an insightful guy.

I felt the freedom that I was going to be able to pursue my passion to the fullest. Then ALL of my insecurities around women and all of my validation issues absolutely vanished.

This is the key here. Women are the hitchhikers on the path of life. Take them with you if they seem fun, kick them out if they suck. But in no way are you obligated to take them with you, because either way, with or without them, you will enjoy the travel of life to the fullest.

I actually prefer to travel alone because you don't have to put up with other peoples bullshit. So I just meet some locals or other tourists, stick around if I like, and move on.

Go alone on vacation, it's very liberating. I'm considering just taking the car to travel, sleep at hostels and so on.

Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life!

I swallowed the pill in my 40's, so you are way ahead of me, my friend... get to the sidebar..

You should be happy you realized you don't need those women to validate you. Most men won't know this ever

Sex is the bait.

Marriage is the chain.

Children are the black iron balls shackled to a slave's legs.

The threat of divorce is the whip that extracts the resources.

Slavery has not been abolished. It has evolved.

Go MGTOW.

I am smart, pretty built, and interesting, but my mindsets completely FUCKED ME OVER

Yes, this is what the system is designed to do. Men are trained from birth to support women and supplicate and defer to them. You are trained to be a supportive married beta.

Currently the only flaws in this strategy are that women themselves reject this behaviour before they are 30 and exploit it after. Apart from that it's a perfect plan ;)

Forgive yourself for being so blind - you weren't given any credible alternative viewpoint, role models or examples. And if you dared to think outside the box, you were shamed for it (you sexist violent misogynistic shitlord).

and my 50% chances of getting a divorce.

Close to 60%, and those are the lucky ones. The men worst off are those living their entire lives at threat of divorce and losing their children, who stick in loveless marriages for the sake of other people.

It's like they are a completely different species.

They are completely different. Technically the same species, but mentally completely different. It's vital to realise this in order to live happily as a man.

oh and OP.... please use a double return to separate into paragraphs.

You didn't make any points in your post, you just shat on the person that you used to be without taking anything to learn from the mistakes
