NMMNG is a great book and I found it very helpful.

I also found the following books to be helpful in my situation.

• ⁠Models

• ⁠The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

• ⁠Boundaries After a Pathological Relationship

• ⁠The Rational Male

• ⁠ Can’t Hurt Me

• ⁠ Extreme Ownership

• Discipline Equals Freedom

Sovereignty, by Ryan Michler, and his Order of Man podcast, provided an actual framework of recovery for me. Actionable steps with measurable results to produce lasting change.

Just curious where are you guys buying all these books at? Amazon? I've been having to tighten my finances up recently and books can get expensive pretty quick.

The whole idea that "being nice entitles you to someone else being nice to you; you are being robbed if they don't reciprocate niceness" is so incredibly destructive. It keeps you from being genuinely nice because you're actually nice.

I am glad that it is working for you. As an alternative, I found it to be poorly written and filled with bad advice. Moreover, there is a very toxic community that surrounds that book, that will lead to all kinds of gaslighting and the need for years and years of self-work including babying the "inner child" (Be prepared for an onslaught of books to read). Instead, I benefited most from working on establishing and enforcing boundaries for clearly articulated things I wanted in my life and things I didn't want in my life.

Agreed it's a must-read for any male over the age of 12.

I just finished the audio book of it on YouTube. I also have heard people talking it up. I kept waiting for a revelation while listening to it, but don't think I really gained much from it.

Brilliant, thanks!
