What's the point?

lietruth · 2020-06-17T06:23:29+00:00

I think your question is rooted in thinking there is a point. Teleological thinking. Purpose driven thinking.

There is no point. And that’s ok.

Think about this: you can never become happy, you can only be happy. That’s true for everything you will experience in your life. There are only temporary states of mind. Glimpses. If you pay close attention, everything in life is this way.

Every feeling, every thought, everything that has ever happened to you, has came and now has gone away.

Yes girls will come and go, and that’s OK. You can experience them for what they are in the moments that you are around them. If they want to jump ship, then let them swim. You’re still the captain.

There’s two ways to live. You can live a mediocre pathetic existence, or you can rise above it all, improve and self actualize. It’s not any more complicated than that. If you’re in a privileged position, and you have choices, then make the right ones. Move closer towards a life of better well-being every day. That’s all anyone wants.

You’re getting jaded because you just came across TRP. Let it simmer down. And work on yourself.

The point of it all is not what your woman does but what YOU do.

playing the tough guy all the time

You're not supposed to be playing anything. You're supposed to shape yourself into a person who's got his shit handled so it becomes authentic.

skyrunner22 · 2020-06-17T06:24:01+00:00

RP isnt about playing a tough guy. Its about knowing whats real and living your life on your terms based off of that, eyes wide open

2020-06-17T06:37:16+00:00

There is no point, this is just how things work.

2020-06-17T15:55:04+00:00

Once you meet a girl that only has a few redflags, you realize just how fucked up every girl truly is.

I had everything from the narcissist bitch, to the BPD self harming nutcases. Many super high maintance attention demanding gaslighting witches. Even female friends often times give you shit for no reason and cause drama.

I actually thought this was how it's supposed to be. I thought this whole sexual relationship stuff was supposed to be cancerious. And this also led me to believe that there is no point.

Eventually I stopped investing so much effort into meeting new girls and adapted the mindset of "what happens, happens".

Up until my current "sex buddy" I didn't know there was such thing as a peaceful relationship with a girl. When a girl behaves like this, I like to do things with her and automatically do stuff that is otherwise reserved for LTR's.

No hassle with setting up meetings. No attention seeking behaviour. No manipulation to get her way. Not playing childrens games over text or when we meet. No constant spam on any messenger to get my attention. Not trying to interfer with my mission. And the most important part: Not pressuring me into a relationship when we only just met.

It's fucking insane now to realize that I could write a whole essay about the shit that girls give for no reason other than causing drama.

Simply cooking food together, going for a walk, doing sports, having fun and watching some movies to chill down with good sex inbetween. It's so easy man.

I don't get why girls don't understand that THIS is the way to get my commitment. If you want to trap me into commitment, then DO THIS. Everything else and you are trash in my eyes and only worth a few fucks.

As for TRP take only what is true. That is not to go to the gym and lift without tomorrow. Neither to "have an awsome life" lol x 4! But don't be needy. Be decisive or at least look like. Learn how women think and feel about relationships.

I-am-ed · 2020-06-17T06:33:32+00:00

theres no point we all die.

lol.

too extreme but its true.

its just a matter of can you endure the thought of knowing the possible consequences while being able to enjoy what you learned in this subreddit. homie at the end if you get your heartbroken and disappointed, not much is going to change, its just yourself. as always.

_DeezNuts714_ · 2020-06-17T06:43:08+00:00

I’ve been reading this stuff for much longer and have reached similar conclusions (mainly regarding your second point).

Returnofthemack3 · 2020-06-17T08:57:39+00:00

It's not about there being a point or not-its just reality. What you choose to do with that reality is on you. We create meaning

mabden · 2020-06-17T12:39:40+00:00

TRP principles of self improvement to give you more/better options (abundance) so you can not only enjoy your turn with these chicks, but vet them for possible long term relationships.

> What is the point if the woman you love can just leave you and run up to a bigger fish

This is backwards thinking in that, you are the one always on the lookout for better fish.

Infernir · 2020-06-17T12:40:03+00:00

Haha, looks like I don't need to respond with any philosophy, the top comment already replied a perfect RP response, words of wisdom you would see in the prime of the original TRP forum.

Keep fishing young man. No matter what women leaves you, there's always much better women out there to be caught.

expectet_lucem · 2020-06-17T12:42:01+00:00

Meaning is given to your life by the actions you take.

absolutelynp · 2020-06-17T13:11:07+00:00

TRP just states how women work and how men/women relationships work in todays society. Based on that "ideas" are given how to handle the situation > keep your SMV high, have game, etc. TRP also states that every women has the _capactity_ to run off with the bigger fish but not all of them are like that.

Personally I think a lot stuff here is stuff you need to hear to avoid getting caught in the various traps. Hard tho to keep sane I admit. It was hard for me too. When you get to know a few women you'll see that some are exactly like TRP describes the worst versions of women and some of them are not and the worlds doesnt look so dark anymore.

Regarding LTR TRP is trying to tell you is basically that you need to check your expectiations, be very careful and just don't think it will last forever and ever. Women aren't dependent on men anymore and can just leave w/o disadvantages. So you need to invest in terms of having game and even then, as it always was, there is no gurantee that it will work out. I don't know where you at but just dont be needy, a doormat and don't expect too much out of the whole women thing. Also find a mission...it really helps to be focused on something oyu actually can control/work on towards a better future.

I mean I type that like is no biggie but Im personally over the inital sadness and in some stage of acceptance and sometimes hate towards women (which is actually bs because they are just acting according to their nature, view them as childs if you will)...I just try to say, let it sink in. Take what it is and look at the world with the found truths, you'll find a path that's ok for you. And that path will not lead into the snake pit since you can see now!

The point is what you make of it. What do you want to be the point?

zephenrage · 2020-06-17T14:52:46+00:00

The point isn’t to “play the tough guy,” the point is to make yourself your own mental point of origin. If you’re playing the tough guy then you are making someone else your point of mental origin. And if you’re afraid of being left by the woman you love then you’re giving your love away too freely. Love should be earned by someone willing to work for it. So if that is your existential fear then you are still subscribing to the soul mate myth and possibly suffering from one-itus. The soul mate myth implies that someone else was tailor made for you therefore you don’t have to worry about being on top of your game. Since you don’t have to worry about working for what you want you can sit back and just wait for your lucky stars to align. So in this case I would say that there is a point to the red pill and that point is for you to rise above that.

319Skew · 2020-06-17T15:57:07+00:00

What's the point of lifting when you are just going to get old anyway?

mikkeldaman · 2020-06-17T16:42:09+00:00

As someone said red pill is just a philosophy on the man-woman dynamics. There is no point. We are here for such a short time so we might as well have some fun. I personally love women a lot but they are people too. You can't really hold them against their will. All you can do is to try to maintain your best image in her eyes. And then she will reward you with devotion. But for that you don't really need to act the tough guy... You just need to be capable to stick to your own values.

athrowaway-9001 · 2020-06-17T18:34:32+00:00

Classic case of existential nihilism.

It is essentially the belief that life has no intrinsic value. You, me and everybody have no purpose in the grand scheme of things and are insignificant compared to the universe. Nothing we do matters and even if we did exist, it would not matter relative to the perspective of the universe. We are essentially a grain of sand.

Despite knowing this, what we do with our lives will matter to us. Whether that be living what others deem to be a "good", safe, stable life or living life to the fullest.

Nothing we do matters, but the opposite can be said as well-- everything we do matters. The things we can do relative to ourselves will affect our quality of life. This is where TRPs ideals come in.

Instead of sitting around having an existential crisis of who we are and what we have in our lives, it essentially advocates that we are the masters of our own fate. Instead of moping around and pointing fingers on why we aren't where we need to be because of somebody or some thing, we must become what we need to be for ourselves. TRP offers the guidelines of being a masculine, confident, man who is in control of his fate and what amount of fucks we give about the world-- whether that be women, money, our bodies, or our ideals of the world.

We are all dealt different hands in life, and ultimately we can determine what affects our quality of life in a certain way.

MGTOW_BEASTMODE · 2020-06-17T19:40:25+00:00

The point is you can learn the reality ( red pill ) on how to deal with people still plugged in ( blue pill )

It's a set of tools and up to each person on how to use them.

Snowboard18 · 2020-06-18T00:59:02+00:00

The point as a blue pilled guy was to find a good girl to marry.

But once I found the red pill, the point of it now is that it’s fun. That’s it. I love the chase and knowing the ins and outs of a girls mind and what moves to make to get in those pants lol. It’s like a game of chess.
