I've been subscribed to the TRP ideology for the past 2 years. It took me a few months to understand and apply it properly, but it eventually helped me get women and get over a dry spell after breaking up with my LTR. Since then I had a nice 6ish months which I went on dates with roughly 20 women and always talked to multiple at a time, it was great.

Since then, I took time off to focus on a lifelong dream of competing in a bodybuilding show and graduating college. I did both whilst taking a 4 month break from game. After this I backpacked Europe with a close friend for 5 weeks and returned to get a minimum wage job at a retail store to attempt to save up money and hopefully escape town (very high unemployment rate). The problem is, it's been 6 months since I got this job and very little has happened. I usually do something with friends every week but it still feels like the months flew by.

The biggest concern I have is my inability to game women anymore. It's been a year since I've seriously tried and I feel worse than when I first started. I just downloaded tinder again a week ago and despite a lot of matches within the first 48 hours, it dropped to nothing overnight (shows me no one). The girls I've matched with are all HB5-7 and dry as fuck to talk to. I have so little interest in these girls apart from trying to fuck them. I've considered trying to day game, but in all honestly I go full fucking retard at the thought. I don't understand why, seeing as I have no problem talking to women normally. I can't even do it while drunk anymore, it's a massive issue. I don't think SMV is a problem, as I'm 6'2" 205lbs lean and I go to the gym 5-6 days/week. I'm not trying to find a unicorn or anything, I just need to reassure myself that I have the ability to land anything. If anyone can give me guidance I would greatly appreciate it; I can provide more info if needed.
