I'm an 17yr old new to the whole red pill philosophy. Kind of a long post, but I'd appreciate if you read the whole thing and offer clarification about my current situation. TLDR at the end

I'd define my past self as a beta that didn't even have anything to provide outside of literal obnoxious amounts of validation. I've read the side bar and not only do I now have a good understanding of female nature, but I've changed for the better. I've also come to the conclusion, game, status, and looks, get you girls nowadays.

Look wise I'm straight, I'm attractive, and I workout in a regular basis.

In terms of game, I've been able to develop alpha like traits, thus stopped putting up with bullshit. However, I'm still lacking on this aspect as I need to work on my social skills and work on being able to have women feel emotions. I'm not so good at finding common interests, and using push pull, not only with girls, but also with potential new male friends, I'm just boring in conversation. And yes, I know the only way to work on this is to consciously engage in high volumes of social interaction, which I'm working on.

Lastly, In terms of status, I'd say I'm halfway there. I'm a prospect athlete, used to play for my youth national soccer team, and I'm also one of the most notable athletes at my school too. Money wise, I don't make any, but my parents make a significant amount of money. I've tried to start some side hustles, more specifically sneaker reselling and investing in the stock market, but because of my location it's not as black and white. Where my status takes a down fall is in my friends. Throughout the years I've made a shit ton of acquaintances through sport, I have a handful of friends, but I'm only truly good friends with the guys at my highschool teams. When I refer to good friends I refer to friends I can rely on, and ones I regularly go out with. Btw, fuck female friends.

Anyways, after reading the sidebar primer in this subreddit. I really didn't find as much info that I'd like that could offer orientation in regards to having better conversations with potential friends, better game with girls, finding common interests with people, and in general establishing and preserving good relationships.

Do you guys have any good posts about social skills and game yall can refer me to, or any advice of your own about my situation

TLDR: I've been able to grasp the RedPill as a 17yr old. I've always had a good life of my own, however I was bad at both talking with girls and making friends, my relationship strategies were based on being beta af. I've grown to have more alpha like traits, and I'm looking to apply the same traits to my social skills. At the end of the day, I'm mainly having problems finding things in common, finding interesting topics of conversation and making WOMEN emote positively. Do you guys have any "game" posts or social skills post that I could refer to clarification? Or do you have any particular advice abt my current situation.
