What a plague we experience as men when we catch the cursed oneitis. How easily we give up our power to a woman that basically holds a remote control over our emotions.

I hate that I have several plates that are perfect on paper but I feel nothing for. Then comes some chick that is goddamned AWFUL for me and she's all I can think about all day. It's frustrating as fuck and a sick joke that nature played on us. But it's not the end of the world. Most of you wouldn't be here if not for oneitis, myself included. That is proof positive that change is happening, your eyes are being opened and you're becoming a better person, more aware and wise than you were yesterday.

Going forward, how do we battle this fucking curse? I believe the key is to develop a way to have the logic overpower your emotions. Left to their own, your emotions are gonna win every time. This is why things like meditation and stoicism are so important. You NEED to be a master of your emotions and logic is the key to that.

You need to discover what works for YOU. A mantra is no good if it doesn't stir something inside you.

When you find yourself becoming infatuated, remind yourself how disgusting that behavior is. Remember the countless stories you've heard and experienced where the blue pill only leads to heart ache. Leaving your oneitis behind will surely cause its own heartache but you are in control of that heartache. There's comfort in that. It's not caused by you sticking around for wasted years only to find out she cheated on you because you were compelled to be blue pill around her.

Remember what Oscare Wilde said: "A man can be happy with any woman as long as he does not love her.”

Getting with your oneitis is like going on a drug binge. It's fun and wild and amazing at first. But then, eventually and always, it leads to a hangover and you wonder what the fuck were you thinking?

The only true cure for oneitis is time and distance. We all know this because we've experienced it. That high school girlfriend that we thought we would love forever today is a distant memory and you have total indifference towards her. You can neglect the bad memories and think about the good times you had with her and it's no big deal. The new hot, sexy girl in your life however, you are imagining how perfect every scenario would be with her in it. The cycle continues. If you find yourself crushing up blue pills and snorting them like a fiend around her, you have to go. There are too many women in this world to be stuck on one because she checks a few more boxes than the other girls.
