Constant Shit Tests

max_peenor · 2019-07-30T16:07:15+00:00

Most people don't like to watch people improve, because they are too lazy to do it themselves.

In the old "victim blaming" language: you're asking for it.

In any male-competitive species, standing out in the sexual market place makes you a target. You are right to evaluate others' behavior the way you did, because you are becoming a threat. It may be amplified if those who are targeting you have a memory of your BP days, because their memory of your weaknesses are still fresh - there's a natural impulse to keep the pecking order.

I get it all the time. My own bosses even. I’ve seen some people do some idiotic things either getting nervous around me or jealous. It comes from making people feel uncomfortable and insecure and jealous of you, they see us and think I’m gonna try to take him down a notch to make myself feel better, or they can’t have a decent conversation with you they’re just rude the whole time, and then shit tests all the time like confident men don’t need to talk shit to other guys they’re comfortable in their own skin and don’t care what others think and they don’t have to be a complete douche.

Agree and Amplify Ignore Laugh and Shrug... Those are my favorite ones.

Motto - Let them hate, I’m a king and they are peasants. My life is awesome and fun, it sucks to be them. It’s great to be me.

People are noticing that your SMV is increasing. This is normal so expect more and more shit tests until they truly identify you as a higher male. Not to say that the shit tests won’t continue, there will be less of them. However, this will hold true if you really do continue to hold frame, AA, but more importantly pressure flip (PF). PF is one of my go to’s. You become a lot more witty and clever with practice. Watch Andrew Shultz.

you'll get used to it and start being more proactive in social interactions; at the cause vs. effect of things.

I just read through some of your post history and I promise you no one is testing you. You are literally just crazy you think that people are stocking you and you talk about your T constantly. You are crazy no one is testing you got get some help.

Sometimes the jackals and hyenas gotta be reminded who the king of the jungle is. Crush an apple with one hand.

DeChef2 · 2019-07-30T17:35:11+00:00

Dude, try to have fun with them. If someone is testing you constantly, just make a joke out of it.

This is more well known as agree and amplify.

deathhandmachiavelli · 2019-07-30T15:17:54+00:00

Yeah, eventually you get to the point that people become envious of you. You'll see it with your own friends and family. It will be at work as well, and even neighbors.

I never felt envy for anyone, but as you become more successful in all aspects of life, you'll see some little haters pop up everywhere.

nateydanger · 2019-07-30T18:56:21+00:00

Heavy lies the crown my dude.

frankgold · 2019-07-30T19:42:50+00:00

That's how it is. Not that you are climbing the "alpha" ladder, you are expected to take more responsibility. More criticism, and the ability to take that criticism, is part of the parcel. More shit tests too.

By now, you should also have developed the skills to deal with all those shit tests, too.

Ohboohoolittlegirl · 2019-07-30T20:01:31+00:00

Not everything is a shit test though. Lots of people see issues when co fisence is high, cause they generally would have gone situations out of the way that you won't avoid now. It's not always the people aroubd you whose behavior changed.

Someone questioning your statements is not a shittest, someone asking you to explain your opinion is not a shittest. Unfortunately a lot of guys start seeing any kind of struggle or powerbalance as a 'shittest.'

Not saying you are wrong, but do not always assume people are only testing you cause you are now 'alpha'

-Skizzy · 2019-07-30T22:59:32+00:00

Keep your head up and keep doing you. If you don’t have haters, you’re not doing something right.

justlibertarian · 2019-07-30T23:41:05+00:00

I also noticed this a lot more after I started working on RP theory But I also began to enjoy shit tests more because they were an opportunity to be a playful dick and have fun with people

nothestrawberrypatch · 2019-07-31T02:12:33+00:00

Maybe you need to practice stoicism better. Don’t treat everything like a shit test. Pick and chose your battles. Amused mastery with the other shit.

Niamke_Mode1 · 2019-07-31T02:21:03+00:00

On top of people having disdain because you're changing and destroying their happy little world (everyone is solipsistic to some degree), they really hate to see someone improve. It's a crabs-in-a-barrel type mentality. People want what you have, and it ends up dragging everyone back down. This is gonna continue wherever you go, so you've just gotta live with it. TRP is all about self improvement and "staying on your purpose," so keep doing that. Check out The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck by Mark Manson for those that need help. Good shit bro. Keep at it

codeleet1 · 2019-07-30T20:47:34+00:00

What makes you say that your testosterone shot up?
Did you get it tested.

uptimex · 2019-07-31T06:33:49+00:00

Yeah man, it works like that. I am even being shit-tested by animals..

SerialATA_Killer · 2019-07-30T20:10:06+00:00

I always wonder about the people that actually write these types of posts. I want to believe that a flabby unshaven Majin Buu looking guy comes around and becomes MegaChad. However, I suspect that the real story here is that OP put in just-ok gains at the gym and has become socially uncalibrated trying to act like MegaChad. Others just think he's a massive dickwad and are tired of his dumb and abrasive behavior. But what do I know.

*claps skeptically*

bert_cj · 2019-07-30T18:41:38+00:00

What kind of situations do you get shit tested in? Like what happens that tells you it’s a shit test?

Im asking because sometimes I can’t tell what a shit test is.

therealbigoso · 2019-07-30T20:48:24+00:00

I’m new to RP and just getting my weight down to improve BMI, so take this with a grain.

But you can literally choose not to be affected by the haters. Unless they can fire you, they don’t matter. They weren’t going to give you a reference for your next job anyways. Unless you persist and they give up wasting their time on hating you,

And if they can impact your employment, focus on cold logic, ignore their childish emotions. It’s their duty to keep their feelings in control. If they fail and can’t come back from it, they suck.

I suck at RP overall because I was blue pilled more hardcore than anyone I know from birth. But what I lack there I make up for in leveraging my psycho abilities to create an overpowering “don’t fuck with me” attitude. Maybe I can teach you guys a thing or two once I’ve come into my own alpha role.

What mind of shit tests are you getting?

Red_Vet_Garageman · 2019-07-31T11:11:16+00:00

Embrace it.

Steel sharpens steel.

Enjoy the journey.

mickey__ · 2019-07-31T14:00:58+00:00

But, let’s see it like this. I’m not trying to put OP down, just getting a different angle on his post

What if OP became egoistic guy, who shows off but looks incongruent with himself, with his actions and his attitude so people put him down to see what’s the thing, right?

Just want to mention how all of us can get threads wrongfuly because we don’t know from which stand point it’s coming..
