    An Observation

    We don't live in tribes anymore, so there is no one guy who is an alpha or The Alpha. Like Krauser says, most guys have a mixture of alpha and beta traits. And a guy might be an Alpha in one situation but a Beta in another. Michael Jordan was unquestionably The Alpha in the Chicago Bulls locker...

    paralysis by analysis

    I like the term analysis paralysis. My Al-Anon sponsor also taught me the term "stinkin' thinkin'." We can get deep inside our heads too much to the point that we're not really living. Fact is, we put walls up, don't engage with the world, we'll get nothing but misery and loneliness for our...

    An Observation

    Great post. It's important to remember that neither gender has a monopoly on bad behavior. Rollo recently posted a link to an interview the Krauser PUA guy did, I think the thread is called London Real. Anyways, one of the things Krauser said in his interview is that every guy should learn...

    What do you think about a woman discovering her fiancé really wanted her hot friend?

    It's understandable she's upset, but it shouldn't derail an otherwise good relationship. She needs to get over it.

    This, gentlemen, is an all-time loser

    You know, I have a hard time thinking that the guy was dumb enough to go through with this process of raising money for an engagement ring and propose without ever having some kind of in-depth discussion about marriage with his girlfriend. It's just basic common sense that on something of the...

    This, gentlemen, is an all-time loser

    Also, you don't propose to a woman unless you know for sure she's going to say yes. You've discussed marriage and made sure you're on the same page before you get a ring and propose. The guy's an idiot if he never discussed marriage in depth with her. If he did and she led him to believe that...

    This, gentlemen, is an all-time loser

    It just depends. Older baseball cards can be worth quite a bit. Back then it was really only Topps that made baseball cards. When I was a kid, most boys my age collected baseball cards. I was in middle school from 90-92. This was the heyday of baseball card collecting and around the time a lot...

    Is this guy for real?

    Thinks he's an alpha but is really a beta.

    Is this guy for real?

    Is this a joke page or does this guy fancy himself as a player? https://www.facebook.com/ManAboutTown Man About Town Pro-Tip Lesson: Been getting a lot of questions from some of the younger brothers coming up in the game today on how they can be more pimp money with the honeys. The...

    hypergamy is not a caste system

    Isn't it more accurate to think of hypergamy as a spectrum, and in this case, this pastor's wife was at the extreme end of the spectrum? My mom will never leave my dad, not at this point. And his faults are numerous. I don't think he's really been that good of a husband to her.

    hypergamy is not a caste system

    I *think* what Rollo is saying is that depending on the woman, some put greater weight in relationship equity and take that into account than others. Some women are going to be cold about it and will "upgrade" no questions asked. Grass is Greener Syndrome and all that. Other women will be more...

    The Things Some Women Do

    OP, you're handling this just fine. Ball is in her court and if she is really into you she'll be contacting you again. This may be a **** test on her part to see if you will chase after her. I don't think this one is necessarily dead yet, but keep your options elsewhere open.

    An interesting comment to the "All the Single Ladies" essay

    Have you seen Jenna Jameson lately? He could do a LOT better than a former porn star that has seen many better days.

    hypergamy is not a caste system

    Because she made a commitment. Marriage in theory is supposed to end with one of the partners being widowed, not signing papers in the presence of your lawyers. If she didn't think she could make a lasting commitment, she shouldn't be getting married. If she married the electrician making...

    hypergamy is not a caste system

    Among my parents, their friends, my aunts and uncles, I've only seen this happen once, where a woman divorced her husband under circumstances that dalrock would consider "frivolous divorce:" http://dalrock.wordpress.com/2011/12/20/is-frivolous-divorce-overstated-in-the-manosphere/ My aunt left...

    hypergamy is not a caste system

    I went and read the post that BB was referring to and the comments section. I think it's generally a good idea when a relationship ends to examine your side of the street and figure out what was your role in the relationship's demise. I mean, the fact is that if you're with somebody long enough...

    hypergamy is not a caste system

    There's something to be said for not wallowing in self-pity, avoiding the adoption of a victim mentality, and be willing and able to take ownership and responsibility for the role we play in our failures and struggles. Having said that, I do think that loyalty is not too much to ask if you are...

    Spinning plates when you're a natural AFC

    backbreaker, How do you feel about sleeping with more than one girl at a time, provided you are using a condom and there is no agreement to be an exclusive, committed couple yet? Here's what a buddy told me:
