Hey guys,

This is my first post. I have read the trp material but am skeptical by nature. Today I did a small experiment.

I had a 2 year relationship with a girl who is below average looking. I still loved her because I thought looks don't matter to me as long as the girl truly loves me. We went through a breakup because of some financial issues at the time and I didn't really understand it at first but things are a lot clearer now after talking to her today.

I was a student studying Computer Science at the time of our breakup and she had already graduated in english and was doing a minimum wage job. At the time of our breakup, I was going through financial issues and it seemed like I wouldn't be able to complete school and have a decent life. Then she initiated the breakup. I worked terribly hard and finally made it through uni and then I hear back from her later after she found out saying that she was missing me and that she realized that maybe she made the wrong chocie.

I didn't know what to make of it. I told her that I was busy those days and I'll contact her back later. At that point I came across the red pill and learnt about the basics. I also started applying for jobs and landed a high paying entry level job in my field.

Today I contacted her and we skyped for about 1 hour and she was very curious about how my life was. I decided to do an experiment. I told her that my life was very hard and that I can't find a good job and then she replied with but there seems to be a lot of opportunities in the field and I told her that it is unlikely as I have low marks and that for now I am just trying to be happy with my life. I also told her that its hard to get into a relationship with the shitty jobs i am doing and she told me to have a positive attitude. I asked about getting some feedback and what followed was the real eye opener for me.

She told me that looks wise I was ugly. She and most of her friends thought that. And that I should be happy with whatever relationship comes my way. I had never expected her to say that as in our relationship she kept saying that she loved my personality and that we were truly in love. Today she told me not to hate her for the feedback but that she is human too and needs someone who is good looking and that her advice is just trying to help me.

Never again will I ever believe anything a girl in a relationship tells me. I am awake now!
