Everyone here has some sort of life story, some overcame lot of challenges and achieved great success or are at their way to do it. Let me tell, you that you can be proud of what you went trough but at the same time dont share your story easily and with everyone, especially with women.

If there is anything you take pride in, dont flaunt it. Let it be known in its own terms.

Your story, shit you went trough, the bad and the good, dont spill it easily. That's your Flame. Thats what is fueling you at nights when you cant wait to wake up and go own and annihilate another day. You might have Ideals you want to achieve, deep down dreams you dont talk with anyone but maybe few good friends, if even them. Thats your Mana, your Inspiration, your source of support in hard times. You did it then, so you KNOW you can do it again.

Im tellig you, women however cute and comfy, cannot and will not ever in a million years understand that shit. Ask her if she has Ideals she strives towards to? You will get a blank stare in many many cases, and some might even ask you what that means.

Dont vulgarize your life by sharing it with everyone. Your goals, your dreams are Sacred.

There is no point in sharing them with people, no matter how much you are proud of your Journey so far. Women wont understand. And other men might be envious more than not. Choose carefully who you show your deepest self. Casual girls in clubs, casual meet ups with casual companies dont deserve yet that kind of knowing you.

Like my dad said – „Most people dont know where I am from or my age, if I have children or not, and I've known them for years.“

Bonus – dont enter into intellectual debates with people, about nature of sexes etc or any other topic to be honest, many ppl being proud they finally understand cannot wait to share it with everyone especially those who are deaf and blind to the world around them. Be the silent stoic guy who is amused by all other wasting energy in futile ego battles, be the laughing guy who eyes the chicks around him and with him, be the smug silent guy. Dont be the emotional „Look at me Im SO TRP“ guy. Lead by example. Show, dont tell.
