There's been a lot of shit posts on askMRP lately. It seems like they come from people who either haven't read the sidebar or haven't bought into the MRP strategy fully and try to tweak it to their own liking.

I have done the work, made alot of progress, decided to STFU for awhile and learn, and not post stupid things. But the point of this community is to compare notes/strategy so it doesn't work if everyone is a lurker. So here is a first effort to contribute back to the community that has helped me.

Sometimes it's good to go back to the beginning and start over. That's what I did with the sidebar and I'm getting so much more out of it the second time around. I encourage others to do the same- you won't regret it.

1.) There's been some talk lately about morality and MRP. MRP is amoral, period. I think this relates tangentially to LTR selection. I picked my wife because I thought she "was a good woman" that would help my morally corrupt life. I had an extensive sexual history and did things that I was taught were bad (by religion and society). She had no sexual history, so having her in my life would make me a better person, right? Wrong. First, I'm not a bad person for having sexual needs that were met and nobody can "make me a better person". I'm good or bad based on me alone and going forward I don't see her as the morally superior one in the relationship. I plot my own solo course to morality/God, or not. Don't choose your LTR based on her "goodness" because this is a mirage visible when she's on her pedestal and distorts your ability to see other things.

2.) Compulsive porn use was a drug I became addicted to at a young age but I've eliminated that addiction since finding MRP. I still use it like methadone to get by when she's not sexually available to meet my needs. I can't sleep and get irritable without sexual release about every 4-7 days. I use controlled porn use as a tool to be responsible for my own needs and not depend on her when she's unavailable. I feel like it takes away her power to some degree and pushes me back towards sanity. This topic is controversial and oftentimes seen through the lens of religion or morality. Am I bullshitting myself and this is just blue pill thinking, or am I taking responsibility for my own needs as described in NMMNG? I know- a real alpha would fuck women not images but I'm interested in other's opinions.

TLDR: I'm re-reading the sidebar and shared some things I learned, trying to contribute.
