I have been lurking on TRP for four months now. I put off creating my first post for a long time because I wanted to make sure that the theories I were reading and the material I was combing through hours a day would actually work. I wanted to be able to know what I was talking about when I finally made my leap into TRP community. But lets get on with the thank you note.

My journey began actually about a year and six months ago, long before I discovered TRP but my experiences back then were essential to me realizing the truth of the nature of women. Me and my girlfriend of the time had been dating for nearly three years when we both moved off to college together. Things were rocky for the first couple of weeks which I had anticipated, change is hard on everybody after all. We were both music education majors and in marching band together. About a month in she began to show a lot of attention to this guy in the band. I was naturally suspicious of their interactions but tried to not let it bother me because I was still taking in the awesome that was college. A few weeks down the road after this, she tells me that she has feelings for him, so I do what I thought at the time was the most rational action and break it off with her. After all, if she really was in love with me like she said then she'd come back right? Well actually she did, she came back begging for me after less than a week. And for the next week or so she seemed so incredibly happy to be with me and I thought the matter was settled. NOPE.

After another week or so, she began acting the same way as she previously had and I knew exactly what was happening after this point so I did again what I thought was the most rational thing and sat her down to talk out our relationship problems one by one (I think you can see where all this is leading). Finally she admits that she never stopped having the tingles for this guys and I tell her to make a choice. She says she can't. So I get up, and as I'm walking out I say, You've already made it.

The next couple months I spend all of my energy trying to get her back even though I was the one who walked away from it. I had oneitis hard core. Finally we end up parting ways, she moves in to live with the guy, gets married, and has a kid. I move back to my home town and begin drastically changing my life style. I start working out, start eating better, start reading on self improvement (No More Mr. Nice Guy, The 48 Laws of Power, The Way of Men, The Power of Now, etc.) and now I'm going to be a supervisor in a couple of weeks and have had more relationships in the past few months than I've had in the entire rest of my sexually active history.

But all of these things compounded when I discovered TRP. It was my missing link to all of the questions that went unanswered.

How could she leave me, her boyfriend of 3 years for a guy she's only known for 3 weeks?

He's some country bumpkin that will never amount to anything. How can she be attracted to him?

He's at least 50 pounds heavier than I am, how could she even start having sex with him?

Enter TRP. I became obsessed with reading the side bar material. I soaked it all in. I spent hours a day in January of this year lurking and reading. It all made so much sense to me. I couldn't understand why it was so taboo. I had proof that it worked in my own life! Dread game, negging, shit tests. I had experienced all the effects of these terms but never knew what to call them. It. Made. So. Much. Damn. Sense.

So here I am now. 230, muscular, great job, no longer an incel after nearly a year, and I have all of you to thank. So thank you.
