C. 2015 I was living in a lower middle class area with an acquaintance I had met through my brother and his at the time GF. (They later married, he paid her student loans, she cheated on him with a doctor and then divorced him, saddling him with tons of debt, but that's a story for another time... (Sound familiar though?))

Anyways this guy was a decent fellow. Good attitude, always down for a smoke or drink, but kept his priorities straight. He owned a nice sports car and has a good laying job in the field he studied for. He also owned his house that a deceased family member had left for him. All in all this guy was set.

Except for his girlfriend.

This bitch was huge. I mean knocking shit off my shelves walking through the house huge. Really nice; truly she was very friendly and would always bring us drinks and make us food.

And therein lies part of the problem. Us men would love if we had a girl to bring us food and drinks, make dinner, treat us like kings. But she had an eating problem and had no self discipline. This wound up translating to him gaining around up lbs I the brief time I was there with him. He started around 150 and stopped around 220 it was pretty bad. He was upset and couldn't understand where it was coming from And unfortunately, he couldnt see why. But the answer came to me one night in a brief exchange with his gf. I forget where the conversation started, but I vividly remember my gut dropping and feeling genuinely terrified of this girl when she said "Oh I just keep his balls empty and his belly full."

I legit felt scared. Not because she was scary, but because her grip on him was of such an insidious type that I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Especially those who are unaware of the general principals discussed in TRP.

I'm not here to argue with any potential debaters about how she wasn't doing it on purpose, etc. So let's get to the main reason why she did it:

Because she needed him closer to her level in order to feel secure. Women aren't stupid. They know that if they lack any real personality and skillet, they always have their vaginas. And if a girl can cook on top of that, basically every guy will be happy to settle for a girl who cooks him dinner and drains his balls every night. Who wouldn't?

But he could have done so much better, only he couldn't see it. She needed him to be less attractive to other potential suitors in order to feel safe and confident that he wouldn't leave her. And true to her word, she made banging food and banging noises every night with him. (it was a bit nauseating when the image would pop in my head.)

There's nothing revolutionary in this post, just a reminder that women have all sorts of ways that they will go about snagging a guy. And when they have nothing else to offer, they have vaginas. And that usually is enough to snag the unwitting beta dummy.

Don't be that guy.
