I noticed a bit of a void in this sub. While TRP boasts a ton of content on personal development, plate management, LTR selection, etc, I haven’t read a lot here on the topic of LTR promotion itself. The sidebar offers plate assessment notes and some LTR attributes, but none too deep on the mechanics, risks, and requirements of taking a sub/plate and giving her the status of girlfriend or beyond.

Women today, even the good ones, are exposed early and often to common themes. The end of alpha fathers as role models, the rise of social media as a hypergamy platform, the attacks of stage three feminism, and the rise in popularity of the beta male have obscured what and how a woman should act in a long term relationship. Of course they still desire a RP partner, but they will have cognitive dissonance because of societal norms. Many will have some unlearning to do, per say.

Ideally, a truly high value female would have none of this baggage, be unaffected by pop culture, worship her alpha, and the like, but the truth is, she probably will be somewhere in between. Even if she has limited exposure, a strong father figure, goes to church on Sundays, and respects you from beyond the grave, she has still lived in today’s world. She has Snap’d, IG’d, and messaged for that dopamine hit, fallen in love, and gotten off a thousand times thinking of other dicks beside your’s. She has followers, options, and ex’s. She has read up on the Kardashians, the Hilton’s, the Bieber’s of the world, and might envy them. She has a hypergamy friend or two in her circle. She has wonderlust, and wants to travel the world. Sound like a plate? It’s not. It’s most chicks these days.

Transitioning from single to couple is not straightforward in this context, and can be confusing when the boundaries are obscure. What is appropriate media? Social media? What is the code that she and you will follow? You need to be strong, and be thorough in your assessment of her weaknesses, and the risks that they bring to your future. The culture, family, and history of this person will affect your future. If you leave any of big stones unturned, you are flying blind. Even the little topics need to be turned eventually.

Understanding and leveraging a girls past for your future is the objective here. It will make both of you happier to be on the same page about everything. Some of the topics suck to talk about, but you have to face them. The following list defines risks that should be used to reinforce and stabilize your mission:

1) social media history and future 2) television and pop culture tendencies
3) friends, colleagues, family, and influencers 4) past and current hobbies 5) current and unrealized goals 6) stable code of ethics, beliefs, and actions 7) previous boyfriends and existing male relationships

Before you enter into an LTR, ask yourself if you have the respect and level of trust of your girl to not only discuss but engage and modify behavior around the above categories. A high value girl will still have some baggage to unpack, don’t fool yourself. An LTR has some hidden dangers, without a doubt. How will you control your reaction and define the shared protocol for history, for beta orbiters at work or school, for hoes in her circle that push her to hoe? For followers and messages on IG? For “guy friends” and hypergamy friends? For the girlie beta wonderlust trend? For shows like “The Bachelorette” and “The Kardashians”? How will you respond when her girlfriends want to go to the club without you?

At some point, it’s not as simple as “Nope”, or “Next her”. Another member suggested auditing her books in a post, but I believe that plate promotion is a more straightforward merger and acquisition scenario. Cultural adoption is as important as the due diligence that allowed you to see her as LTR material.
