Shit tests and asks

SBIII · 2020-06-25T00:18:35+00:00

Sometimes dudes wander in here, looking for help - it's usually something benign like how to deal with shit tests, but what they don't realise is that they are looking for a band-aid for a paper cut when they haven't noticed that their leg is missing and they are bleeding to death.

You - OP - are one of these dudes.

A post of yours from 3 months ago tells the full picture, but unfortunately for you, you are unable to see the picture, so here, I shall explain it to you:

My wife (31) and I (31) have been together for 14 years, since we were 17. Married for 6. Two children ages 2 and 5. She wanted to separate, and cited wanting more independence, control issues, drifting apart, not wanting intimacy with me because she doesn’t feel close to me. She has also told me that she feels like she has been in a relationship with me since we were children and has missed out on a lot because of it.

Women are at their sexual peak between around the ages of 22 and 26 - this is the age at which they are most desirable to most men. This is also the age when a woman can have healthy babies most easily. As a woman ages, her ability to have healthy babies decreases, by the time she’s 35 she’s lost about 40% of her fertility and from here, her chance of having a normal healthy baby declines dramatically. By 40, the odds she’ll be able to conceive naturally are very, very small and by 44 they’re next to none.

Since having children is a biological imperative for our species, men are programmed to look for the healthiest most fertile women, being the 22 - 26 year olds. Women on the other hand are programmed for hypergamy - that is they look for men who have the best genes (Alpha) and the highest status (money - aka Beta Bucks). Good (Alpha) genes mean good children and status (Beta Bucks) means that when she’s most vulnerable by being pregnant and having small children, her partner will be able to provide for her and protect her. So, women look for a man who will have a good mix of Alpha traits (good genes) and Beta traits (provisioning skills) as the perfect partner to settle down with.

However, while women are in their 20's - unless they are really fugly - they can attract the attention of CHADs and revel in it - and revel in it, they do. Since feminism tells them they can have it all, they postpone marriage and children to stay on the Cock Carousel as long as possible.

Until they hit The Wall.

Now, the age at which a woman hits The Wall can vary depending on her level of attractiveness, but an average would be around 30. That is the age when the CHADs, who remain attractive to women well into their 40’s, begin to lose interest since they can still attract women in their 20’s.

Why am I telling you all this?

Well, it explains why your wife told you that - because she has been in a relationship with you since you were both 17 - that she "has missed out on a lot because of it".

Yes, she missed out on riding the Cock Carousel and now - as she is hitting The Wall - she realises that if she is ever going to get a chance to fuck the CHADs, then she had better get her skates on, because pretty soon, her chances of attracting a CHAD will be over.

And - you know - if one of these CHADs turn out to be a better mix of Alpha / Beta than you are (which probably wouldn't be too hard), she can branch swing to him and dump your fat ass.

But she wouldn't cheat on you, would she?

No issues with infidelity as far as I know, and no reason to suspect.

Good. But.. wait - what's this....?

She moved into a small house about 10 minutes away that is rented monthly. She goes there after the kids are asleep and comes back after work

She is ... willing to go into marriage counseling.

I gather from your other posts that you are still 'together' - not sure if she still has her own place. But the one thing I am 100% sure of is this - she was / is fucking someone else. There is absolutely no fucking doubt in my mind about this.

If she isn't still fucking him, then the branch swing failed.

And if she is still fucking him, then she's still testing the branch.

Either way, she cheated / is cheating on you - and the marriage counseling just confirms that.. it means that if / when she jumps ship, she can say that she tried everything - inclduing councelling - but it just didn't work out - ie., it's not her fault.

So, there's the bigger picture explained to you.

Oh, and by the way - the type of shit test you're asking about is called a "Compliance Test".

SoggyTrain · 2020-06-24T20:42:49+00:00

It may be a compliance test. You will get less of these as you progress. I used to get these quite a bit. Super easy to handle. Don't be a bitch, but don't be an asshole either, you guys are on the same team. Do what you want to do.

I didn't even realize how many of these tasks I was doing initially. Of course I'm a nice guy and I want to be nice to my wife, so I should do little things for her right?

I didn't even get creative with passing blatant compliance tests. If we are both on the couch and she asks me to get up to get her something I just laugh and say no.

On the flip side, it can be fun to start giving these to your wife, just to observe behavior.

redwall92 · 2020-06-24T19:10:37+00:00

This sort of request is exactly the type of thing that will work itself out on its own without any real focus on your part if you stick to the reading and work on yourself. You do you.

If I want to grab a drink for my woman (if she asks or not), then I'll do it. Her response is less important that my mindset. He acceptance or rejection of my time/attention is less important than my mindset in the doing of what I am doing.

If you spend your time spinning your wheels (your hamster) on whether or not each thing coming out of your wife's mouth is a shit test or comfort test or some 60/40 variant in between ... then you're going down the wrong path. Chuck the score card and the spreadsheet.

Have some fun in your life (invite her along for the laughs and the drinks if you want).

Reasonable Requests versus Testing - False Positives

BobbyPeru · 2020-06-24T19:27:41+00:00

This is called a compliance shit test. When I was BP, my wife did these constantly, especially when there were other people around.

You are making it too complex. If it is more convenient for you to do whatever she is asking, sure, why not. But, if it requires more effort than her or equal effort, nope. So...next time she asks for a snack when you’re sitting together, keep it lighthearted and say something like “I got a snack for you right here.” Then, give her a snack on the butt. Her reaction will tell you a lot about where you stand. Laugh no matter how she reacts.

You are a faggot, so she probably will not react well. When she laughs along with you, then you know that you are possibly not a faggot any more

Can't remember where I saw it but it's a compliance test. It still falls under a shit test to kinda see where you stand as far as your frame. "Honey, do this! Because I want to see if you'll stop whatever you're doing for my request." and "Honey, Do this! Because I need your masculine to get it done because my feminine is truly incapable." Granting one builds frame, granting the other established her frame over yours.

if you're a weak-willed asshole kissing your wife's ass and begging for her honeypot then perhaps it is some magical dumbass test otherwise she'd probably just like a fucking cup of coffee

jesus fucking christ the ice tea

The real question is Are you the prize ? Can you ask for something your capable of doing yourself and she gets it with a smile

I come home from a successful day at work and sit down and relax on the back deck and I can ask her to bring me fresh squeezed lime and ice water and she gets up and brings her king a cold drink

Now we have a great loving relationship and I will return the favor. But she’s not taking advantage and using her pussy as power.

The key here is for you to be the prize and make sure you are getting her to do requests for you in a sign of submission

Women want to please a man she deems a prize

I have had employees that saw her “serve me” and they’ve actually joked with her telling her not to enable me

She’s not enabling me by doing my bidding she’s being a good wife and providing me with value

If your doing all the bidding she’s the prize

Depends on YOUR frame of mind. My wife does the laundry at my house. She sorts it, brings it downstairs, washes it, dries it, and folds it. She sets the basket by the steps and says nothing. I always take it up stairs for her because I want to do it. I like doing it, but I do it because I give out of abundance. She always says thank you and appreciates it. If you're unsure of whether this is a shit test or not, then you're not where you need to be. Shit tests should be dealt with like breathing or hanging your jacket up when you get home. Passing them becomes second nature. The fact that you care about, or are overthinking this minutiae tells me that you're not there yet.

All women will shit test, it's just what they do. When your frame is where it needs to be, you won't even care about shit tests or even be conscious on one going on, you'll pass it without effort.

Think of it this.... what does it say about your frame considering the fact that you are asking this question? Focus here... OI & abundance mentality... getting these right naturally kills uncertainty, neediness, caretaking, taking responsibility for your wife's moods, etc. This is the secret to security and frame. All frame basically is a belief and value system that works for you and owning that.

It’s a shit test, AM / AA accordingly. “Sorry my legs are paralyzed” with a smile usually gets them going. After she bitches about you no longer being her slave, follow with “I think my dick still works though - let’s find out!” Begin scene..

Generally speaking, would you ask your boss or the CEO of the company to go get you a drink? Would you ask a subordinate?

Without getting into all of the weird one off scenarios where the above wouldn't apply and going with the 99% of the time when it does, does that make you the boss or the subordinate?

It may be a "mild" shit test, but she is still checking to make sure she still has pull in the house and that you are obedient. Once you start recognizing the shit tests for what they are your eyes will forever be opened. They happen more often than you think and I am also convinced that women don't even know that they are doing it. It is just built into their programming.

Just don't go full retard when you start addressing them.

the_man_i_want_to_be · 2020-06-25T00:25:29+00:00

If she's doing it while you are obviously busy or when it would be easier for her to get it, it's probably a compliance test.

If you're in an easier position to get it, she's busy, or she's exhausted...she probably just wants a tea, and hopes you'll do her the favor.

Don't overthink it.
