why?

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I understand that negging is a good technique to take her down a notch, but I'm not trying to ruin someone emotionally.

Destruction like this for the sake of destruction is douchy.

[–]elderstorm1 point2 points3 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The title could have better wording even though the actual article itself states the same. it's about catching people's attention and interest without deterring them by leaving room for bad assumption. I understand now.

[–]bad_pattern3 points4 points5 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

this is some evil shit

what happens when you've reduced her to such a state that you don't find her attractive anymore

[–]someboringdude8 points9 points10 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

This is pathetic and this is not TRP at all.

[–]robesta2 points3 points4 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's kind of a depressing concept. I playfully neg my LTR fairly often, but I hate the idea of making her hate herself out lose all confidence. I neg her because she's a 9 and gets constant validation all day long. I don't need to further validate that she's hot and I want to have her mentally separate me from the other chowd orbiters out there.

I think it's a bad long term strategy to beat all self esteem out of a girl. My ex wife had low self esteem (even tho I constantly validated her) and it led to her cheating on me with any guy who'd validate her poor body image.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The part about friends AND FAMILY is the signature of an abuser. I get it you want to get her away from her slut friends that will inevitably encourage her to cheat or break up but this is a bit too much.

[–]fiat_lux_0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I'm not 100% sure how much of that is satire, and I can kind of see advantages for some redpillers to having a girl with lower self-esteem (power and dependency dynamics).

That being said, I've dated girls with low self-esteem before (maybe even depressed) and it's a major drag. Just sucked the energy right out of me. They lied more and their positive behaviours were faked and unsustainable.

#3 is the most insecure garbage I've ever read.

[–]Endorsed ContributorRS73-2 points-1 points0 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The funny thing is, that's what most women do to their husbands. They bitch about the guy ever going out and doing anything with his friends. They've got his time all laid out with various chores and household duties. And HER family and girl group friends always come first. Always. After a couple of years, most of the man's friends have dropped away or are in their own marital slave cell and the man is well isolated from his old friends and his family too.

[–]causack0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I get that some girls are way too high on their horses and need to be knocked down a couple notches... but this seems just a bit over the top. I also dont think it would work very well... any guy who would treat me like this I would definatley leave. I think negging is good for when a girl is so confident she just takes advantage of guys...but you dont want to turn into the type of person she is, right?

[–]ashman89-1 points0 points1 point 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

this is more MGTOW no?

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points-1 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Its really fucking annoying when a girl clings onto you for validation. It makes me think they're less than trash. A girl with self - esteem is attractive unless they are being a giant bitch. Why you would make your plates/ltr less so is beyond me.

On the other hand this seems kind of fun, as long as you can reset the damage afterwards.
