dealing with envy

Last night, I complemented my friend's wife, who has taken some serious steps to improve herself, and she looked great.

I was sitting by myself waiting for the rest of our friends to show, and she comes in and starts confessing to how she feels like she and him "don't have a connection anymore."

Oh boy. . .

The shitshow never ends. Just have a frank and honest convo, and if they understand they're people to keep around. If not, fuck it.

The Rich and Powerful of any society are hated and feared as much as they are loved and respected. Within their own circles, the rich and powerful face the same issues. What makes the news is there clashing.

That's a basic fact of social life. There will be conflict. There will be shifting alliances. Hypergamy is real, and a woman will try to trade up, sometimes without discretion.

Are you a wolf? A shepherd? A hunter?

Or a sheep?

Choose. Or someone will choose for you

Uhm.. This never happens to me.

If you are sincere in your interactions, this is seriously not that likely to happen. Also, people who expect this to happen reveal a lot of their own inner motivations; Jealousy and envy and those aren't pretty motivations. Guys will only be "manipulated" into things face to face when you are being a smart ass or trying to show how "alpha" you are...

I try to sell my achievements short, or talk very honestly about my projects and success. (Not to brag, or overhype things). Basically I try to seem worse than I am around people who I feel are prone to envy. And to cut people out who have shown envy because it's a dangerous emotion.

So there are two common types of haters - betas who think they “deserve” attention from women and HBNotSoHots who think they are Super Special And Wonderful because they’ve been told that their whole lives. As an older man who enjoys stuffing young muffins, I’m used to dealing with with both. The young betas I tell to go improve themselves and the post-Wall^SPLAT! hags I just smile at and, if they deserve it, I tell them to come to grips with reality.

This is a broad topic to talk about. I suggest reading the book "The laws of Human nature" by Robert Greene. This is a must read book if you want to master social interactions.

While i was beta af my girlfriend eyefucked my alpha bro.

I was pissed at her at the time but not at him,and deep down i was mostly pissed at myself becouse i was nowhere near him.

If he fucked her i would forgive him,since he is the most friendly chad i came across,he got me into lifting,was amazing moral support and saw me as a "becoming Chad in progress" guy and boy was he right.

The best thing is that he would never even smash her since he was my friend and he was already spinning plates at 16 years old while not even knowing what redpill was.

Sadly i lost contact with him due to separate lifestyles and friends.But moral of the story is that all the envy mofos are rarely gonna do anything about their pathetic life so they are gonna moralize and call you a cunt,so be a sickcunt.

The only way to never make enemies is to never leave your house and never speak to anyone. Nobody who is anyone doesnt have haters.

This rarely if ever has happened to me. When it does it is usually guys I don't know at social event with friends of friends and the guys don't like that I am getting women's attention. They probably think I am some sort of jock dork douche. Usually they are the passive aggressive ironic types or wannabe cool guys that struggle to know how. I like having complete nerd male friends that are smart.... so if they only really knew I didn't stuff guys into lockers and trash cans in junior high. Men that have gotten women they are attracted to easily are always usually easy going and want to be friends because it is somewhat rare to find other men like that.

The other one is more prevalent which are the girlfriends of my guy friends. They can get give off some attraction signals while also at the same time wanting to keep my friendship more distant from my guys friends.

I actually have no beef with this because I am and have been single. I am sure the girlfriends have gotten word or even detailed stories about my past dating life so they do know that the dark side could rub off on their boyfriends. Though I never have whispered for guys to break up or how great it is the be single. I think these women think that I may take their boyfriends out to a happy hour or a bar and start talking to girls then....
