My biggest mistake while being a BP was ignoring the obvious red flags present while starting to see a woman. Should have just kept it to a FWB arrangement and saved myself a lot of trouble.
Lessons learned the hard way. It also opened my eyes that you can either understand women or love them...
This. I'm a victim of this mindset as well. I've also been looking into stoicism. It's not an easy concept to practice everyday and it takes a dedicated effort to apply in everyday life from what I've learned.
You make some valid points about the perception of RP and how it's applied by "new" ones.
As someone who was recently red-pilled, I understand how my perception of everything has changed. With that being said, I don't hate women, but learning to accept how they really are. It's not easy since...
Eh I was in this situation before. Caught the feels and didn't end well. Finally ejected when I found my self-respect and told her to go take a hike.
Don't catch feelings OP. Bang her and enjoy the fun, but the minute you start giving a f***, eject, eject, eject.
100% agree. I've lost nearly 40 pounds in the past few months through the gym and proper diet. I hated the way I looked, hated myself, and had a relationship with a woman that didn't last and in hindsight was toxic. It messed me up even more than I was.
I was unhealthy, blood pressure out of...
OP, sounds like my last relationship. Wish I was better educated to deal with her. But I firmly believe in order to progress, you have to experience something like it otherwise you'll never truly understand how to handle a situation like that.
I think you're on the right track. Recently ended things with my ex. Nowhere near as long as you but still had a lot of effects on me.
I'm just concentrated on myself at the moment. If an viable opportunity presents itself with a woman, I'll pursue it. But, I'm not going to actively hunt.
Same here. I've lost a lot of weight and still not satisfied with my body comp. But what you said about it being a marathon, not a sprint is key.
I have to keep reminding myself of where I started, where I am now, and how much better I'll look a few months from now. Just have to keep grinding.
35 here and just started training for the first time in my life. Lost 33 pounds in 2.5 months lifting and eating right. Went from 240 to 207 currently. I'm 6'0".
Wish I had gotten my head out of my ass when I was younger, but better late than never. Feel much better and healthier these days...
I was a beta with my last ex until I finally realized she didn't meet my standard for respect and value. Even though I knew I should have never pursued her, the p**** was great and I was a chump for it.
I had enough of her BS (and disgusted with myself for tolerating it) and told her to go...
