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

brb I've got a biz call

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

I'm going to take a 1 year break from internet for all purposes besides work and Facebook messenger

Beginning on the 25th of June

*25th of May

to remove all this cancer from my brain and go complete monk mode (except for the 1st month when I'll be with my gf before breaking up)

I will post back in 1 year

not even joking
