Blue pill examples are reminders of behaviors to avoid

[–]AlwaysLateToThreads8 points9 points10 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The daily reminders are good medicine.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points7 points 13 years ago* (2 children) | Copy Link

Trying to 'save' everyone stuck in the matrix is all well and good but not everyone wants to be saved. This is why you're better off keeping this stuff to yourself unless you can somehow make people laugh (i.e Bill Burr.)

Generally, people won't wanna hear it - especially if you don't look like the type who gets with lots of women. They'll just figure you're mad because women don't want you without even considering what you're saying.

[–]Jewbot69[S] 0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

doesnt have to be a forceful or even something you have to put an extensive effort into. Just throwing a few tips here and there is better than criticizing

[–]desire_engineer1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

this may be the only outlet existing today that allows for shamefree criticism/understanding of people, and in most cases guys are referring to their former selves as overly beta, which is just a part of their own path to acceptance of themselves and the change they have begun.

Most guys here have come to this conclusion by way of harsh lessons they weren't properly prepared to receive, all stemming from a lack of a strong male figure to learn from or confide in and so they crowdsource some of those needs here.

[–]watersign6 points7 points8 points 13 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

people dont want to hear the truth, never have and never will. going about it nicely is not a good way to get the point across

[–]Jewbot69[S] 2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago* (2 children) | Copy Link

even so, why focus on them being beta? its a waste of time, waste of front page space and a waste of constructive descussion. I come here to learn more, not make my ego feel pretty

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Thank you for this.

Which is worse? A subreddit that bitches all the time, or a subreddit that bitches all the time about a subreddit that bitches all the time?

I think it's the latter.

[–]watersign0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

insulting someone isnt "focusing". me glancing at a story that gets cross posted here then proceeding to tell the OP that he is a beta and a spineless worm is not focusing

[–]yankeetiger6 points7 points8 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Many of us came here because we realized we were beta, and wanted to make a tangible change in our lives.

Every example of beta behavior is a way to keep destroying the beta that was once at the forefront. I see these examples and think to myself, "This sounds exactly like something I used to do. How can I make sure I don't do it again?"

[–]Jewbot69[S] 0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Behaviors are beta in CONTEXT, it's all about intention and knowing what's actually going on

[–]RedSunBlue1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Stop concern trolling and start posting more content that you want to see.

We are not here to please you.

[–]Suppiluliuma_I -1 points0 points1 point 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

We are not here to please you.

This is not relevant. In given group it's only natural that you ask your fellows to change behaviors sometimes. It's natural, human, and sensible to do so if you want to see some changes. It should just be done respectfully and without a sense of entitlement. And he should be willing to go it alone.

[–]Kaquin0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

Because the beta will not accept RP advice unless they become aware of their mistakes.

This just happened to me yesterday. I heard from a friend I was trying to get with about how a then mutual friend of ours completely failed at trying to get with her. He was her emotional tampon and after a huge fuck up he did, got immediately kicked to the curb. I decided from the kindness in my heart to help him out. So we made an arrangement to talk about how and why he fucked up and how he can improve himself, but right before we were supposed to meet up he called me saying that he does not need my help and that if she can't accept his "friendship" than it is her loss/fault.

[–]Kronos69480 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Most "betas" don't listen to advice. But labeling them beta and pointing them out as such, even if it's not to their face, just sounds like a bunch of dick measuring. I don't care how alpha someone is, nor do I care how beta they are. I care about the situations, and good tips on avoiding bad ones when it comes to dealing with women.

If anything, it's usually the ones who spout how alpha they are that are the ones most insecure in their alpha-ness.

So entirely true, even I am guilty of this at times
