I have an exam tomorrow but I really need to get this off my chest
Hey there! Welcome aboard
Good to have you here @Deleted User
I really think the red pill and general PUA material was helpful in getting me started with meeting girls
however, the severely over exaggerated beliefs and fucked up dogma almost ruined my relationship
met a really nice girl, who constantly cooked for me, was affectionate, and sung my praises
however, the whole time I was suspecting her of foul play and scrutinising her
turns out she genuinely loved me and wasn't cheating
I'm not saying I want to marry this girl, because it is only a summer fling
but I really think that although trp is true TO A DEGREE, having the core principles regurgitated by angry internet trolls over and over again really fucked up my mind
I want to go back in time and know what I know now
oh well
Thanks for sharing. We all have similar stories actually. TRP is right to a degree, but that's only because it teaches common sense things masculine role models used to teach young men. Things like, lift weights, be charming, do something important, be ambitious, etc... These were all obvious things back in the day because your grandpa, dad, and uncles all taught you them
Red Pill has become a proxy for old, tried and true wisdom and it's bought TRP a TON of credibility
It lures people in with this very good and solid knowledge, and then radicalises young men once trust has been gained
I'm grateful that I found it in the first place because it pushed me in the correct direction as a man
but I went way too far
yup, we all went just a bit too far... and ended up paying for it gravely
I'm glad I know now
At the end of the day, though, we're better men to not only have found it, but have found it AND rise above it. Now that is what makes a complete man
I feel like maybe 30-40% of trp is true
We could probably make a list of true core principles about what it means to be a man
And I'm sure it'll be just 10-12 things
alright brb
or at least most of it is extremely exaggerated
see ya
glad I found this place
about how old are you btw
I'm 22
22 too. PUA's brain child is day game. I think that is the shit. Personal development on steroids.
'we're better men to not only have found it, but have found it AND rise above it. Now that is what makes a complete man' Interesting point @IntAnon I'd say we are in the best place possible. Best of both worlds
I feel the same way
Some guy on the exredpill post is going all in with the red pill stuff xD
He's my first 'client'
""""What is universal however, is Black Dragon's concept of maximizing happiness."""""
we now take life advice from a guy online named "black dragon"
alarming to say the least
