I am currently 17 and finish high school at the end of this year.

Last year, I had an encounter with a girl I found cute. She liked me and I liked her back, but things didn’t work out in the end. I was in so much pain from that shit that it led me deep down the red pill path and self improvement rabbit hole.

Fast forward 1 year later, I’ve improved so much. Started lifting more, started becoming more confident, assertive and social. I was shy asf and quiet last year compared to how I am now. Recently I approached a girl to ask her out to prom. Although she initially said yes, she changed her mind afterwards telling me that we just didn’t know each other well enough and she didn’t want prom night which was in just over a week to be awkward. I was hurt asf the day I heard that from her, but I’m moving on.

In high school, it’s hard because I see the same people every single day. There is a lack of abundance compared to in university or college and thus it’s honestly harder for me to have an abundance mindset. I go to a top academic high school and I just want to finish my studies, get the fuck out and enjoy life. I want to make new friends, become more independent and successful.

I’m so grateful for having found the red pill around 16 years old. Although I’ve absorbed so much knowledge and took some action, I’m still always learning and improving. I hope life leads me down the right path and I end up having a good time, because currently I feel kind of dissatisfied with how alot of things are and how I could be better. I’m still a virgin and never had a girlfriend before. I hope life after high school is truly the time i shine.
