    Her sudden, abrupt change in communication. What happened?

    It is the same answer as it usually in with a sudden change like this. There is another guy. Bonus points if that "other guy" is an ex. Exes can make a chick drop everything quicker than any under the right circumstances. I didn't see you mention any ex but I have this suspicion that may be...

    Put Yourself Out There

    Practicing social skills can be done with anyone. Old ladies and even men. It doesn't mean it is exactly the same as approaching a hot 25 year old to get a number. That isn't Duke's point. His point is that a lot of men are flat out scared to interact socially period. These men, having zero...

    Back in the approaching routine, but discouragement arise

    I find the best way to get back into cold approach after a hiatus is just approach for the sake of striking up conversations and being friendly. Work on your charm with strangers. And you can do this with both men and women to get back in the groove. Most of being successful at cold approach is...

    Plate who **** tested and didn't like the outcome

    I have only seen this post and not your others that the other guys are referencing. I guess I am left wondering why such a brutal response to her? If your goal is simply to cut this off then I suppose you did the right thing. If you wanted to try to extend the relationship (whatever that was...

    I didn't think women could hurt me anymore

    OP, You have been here for awhile and already know everything we are going to say. But remember the adage: "always believe someone the first time they show you who they are." She ghosted you for three months initially. This second ghosting, despite good sex, shouldn't have come as any type of...

    the characteristic that elevates a man above others

    As a man, you can individually take pride in the fact you can brave through this kind of thing. A woman, on the other hand, isn't going to give you brownie points for it. Yes, in an LTR you stand the best chance to maintain those by being her "rock," but its a balancing act to not go from being...

    Incel Circlejerk

    This place has become more and more negative over the years. We had an infusion of black pill back in 2020 during Covid -- which probably makes sense given the circumstances of that time. It didn't really recover and there is more and more negativity. When I first joined it was more about just...

    i am starting to doubt everything about alpha male

    Let's also not confuse attraction with intimacy. Intimacy becomes important in LTRs. Pulling your ears sideways isn't attractive and isn't going to work on Date 1 other than to make you look like a try-hard moron or a clown. That is bad. Pulling on your ears to your wife/GF who is feeling like...

    social circle trickiness?

    Social circle can definitely be tricky. Some women feel more comfortable dating someone within, other women are more on guard for that very same reason. You will have to gauge where this woman falls in that. That said, the only way you probably know this for sure (short of her saying something...

    Girl deleted my profile after date.

    Women are non-confrontational. So what looks like to us men to be some chicken-sh1t indirect way of rejection to them makes sense because she is going to think she is giving you a "soft" rejection this way. That said, your second post about the date itself sounded more than a little butt-hurt...

    Men in relationships that would rather jack off than bang their gf/wife

    Weight gain certainly can play a role. Also the woman losing any desire to get done up if she traditionally did so and suddenly is wearing a sweat outfit around the house with zero makeup. That is along the same vein of her weight as far as just taking care of herself and making herself appear...

    Does excessive p0rn consumption...

    If you are watching porn you are basically broadcasting to the world you aren't getting any real pvssy. You may think that women can't sense it, but they can. You should be saving your load for a woman and not blowing it in the shower or into a towel while watching a screen. Do yourself a favor...

    Truth From Solomon

    This is woman's natural state. They want men to lead. The problem we have in society in the year 2024 is that society has tried to re-program both women AND men that this is bad and that women are equal in all things even though they are not - the sexes point blank are different. But facts don't...

    Boring conversations

    Don't look at it as being an interviewer. Look at it as building rapport. The best way you build rapport is to let people (not just women) talk about themselves and act interested. Of course, it takes more than just asking questions. You need to be engaged and charming as well. Go watch Pierce...

    Can't get a solid dating rotation going for love nor money

    @Bingo-Player It sounds like this is more about the fact you don't care for the women in the first place very much and are just banging them to have sex. I have gone through these periods before where I am not crazy about anyone on my roster and I become very laissez faire about whether...

    is being friends w girls overrated?

    Women "friends" are worth having for social proof and typically nothing more. I say typically because there are exceptions but they are very rare. Most women will only be your friend if they are single. Once they enter into a relationship you won't see them except in very limited circumstances...

    She gets bored frequently / Sex is decreased

    OP wants to live with her because he wants sex on tap. The problem you always face is that sex frequency and quality almost immediately take a hit when a man and woman move in together. They also typically start showing way more attitude and testing boundaries, just like OP's woman is doing...

    Would You Ever Pursue A Friend's Plate? Where Are The Boundaries?

    I am not necessarily going to disagree with you because I think this statement is true. That doesn't mean this is a good world view to have as a man -- because it isn't. And that really is the crux here. OP needs to get past this and not worry about a former plate - a woman who wasn't even his...

    Advice on LTR breakup

    Six years is a long time, so acknowledge to yourself that these thoughts you are having are unavoidable. Our bodies begin to treat women we are with over long periods of time the same way they do drugs. So when you breakup with someone, suddenly your body is telling you that you just lost...

    Would You Ever Pursue A Friend's Plate? Where Are The Boundaries?

    OP - why are you bothered about this if your "new friend" pursued an old plate? You seem to be unfairly holding that against him. I get the feeling you developed stronger feelings for this old plate - hence the reason you now are somewhat upset by this. If all she was was a plate, you shouldn't...
