For the record, I'm not someone than anyone should be looking to for inspiration. I'm 32, still working on overcoming a ton of insecurities.
But I've been applying some of the core tenants of Red Pill over the past 6-12 months. Progress hasn't been as fast or transformative as I'd have hoped. Well, and least I didn't think it had been.
A few nights ago, I was at a party. I won't get into too much detail (since I have a habit of droning on). What matters is, a woman was there that two of us were interested in. The other guy is objectively just a good-looking dude, and was really putting his all into pursuing her.
She picked me.
That may sound like a stupid thing to be proud of, but like a lot of other "beta" dudes that are recently stumbling on this sub... that's a feeling I've legitimately never experienced before.
See, I've spent my whole life with so little confidence in myself, I couldn't even process the idea that, actually, I have come a long ways. Suddenly, when I look in the mirror and see a fat POS, I'm thinking "Hold up, what if I'm actually better looking than I give myself credit for? What if I actually do have desirable qualities?"
I mean, anyone that's been posting on TRP very long probably recognizes my username, as I'm really prone to second-guessing myself and asking advice for stupid shit. But the guys here kept me straight, told me to keep lifting, keep working on myself, and not to get caught up playing pointless games.
Even when you don't feel like it's making a difference... as long as you stick with it, it will.
So seriously; listen to these guys. They know what they're talking about. And it may take some time, but when the work finally starts paying off, that shit feels incredible. When you start feeling like you have value, you just can't put a price on that.
