I once knew a guy who was a mediocre DJ and went to higher ed with me. His girl friend was not bad looking and rather smart, she was studying to be a lawyer. This guy would bang girls left and right each weekend. Some player. Not ugly girls mind you. Point is, she had to know and I think they were separated once, but she somehow always came back and dealt with it...I was so disappointed to see a clever girl that isn't even ugly taking all this shit from an idiot such as he was and probably still is. And guys like this are now teachers /societyfacepalm. He wasn't even good looking or had a lot of money. Wish someone could explain this to me.

I just saw this comment in a thread elsewhere on reddit. I actually laughed and shook my head after I finished reading because that poster could have been me a year ago. Now everything he says is clear as day (social proof, hold frame, don't pedestalize, abundance mentality, AWALT, sharing an alpha vs beta to herself, etc), and it's so obvious that he can't understand because of his self-imposed BP blinders. He goes on to explicitly state he wishes someone could explain it to him. I'd bet good money he'd call TRP rapist misogynists and plug his ears if you gave him the explanation he says he wants. Moreover, instead of asking himself "what's this guy doing right that I'm not doing?" he dismissively calls the guy who has a loyal smart, ambitious, hot girlfriend and gets tons of strange from other hotties an idiot and that's the end of it.

Here's to TRP for improving my awareness, and life in general.
