I got a story to tell. 100% true. I odn't know the guy personally, but my fiancee knows his girlfriend quite well. or his ex girlfriend. guy was 24 years old, was a jockey, and a damn good one. one of hte best in the country, bull**** aside. made hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. had a nice crib, drove a benz and an escclade. guy had serious drinking issues. everyone knew it but the dude was so talanted, you know how that goes, everyone *****foots around with the guy.
]
anyway, he has been kinda blackballed here in southern cali, he moves back to my home state to arknasas to get rides. does damn well is 4th in the standings down there, rode some good horses.

so;, the GF tells him that he needs to come home (to la) or she is going to leave him. his agent, knows that he is going to make a killing if he stays in the midwest. he just isn't going to get mounts if he goes back home.

anyway, he makes his decision, he's going to stay in the midwest. she can't take it anymore, breaks up with him. he goes on a drinking spree, found him this morning, in his truck at churchill downs, dead as a doornob. out of respect for the deceased, you can draw your own conclusions.

That, is what this site is for. So you don't become that guy. that guy that can't live without that girl. So you don't become that guy who thinks he keep living. so you don't think that any amount of money or looks are going to solve all your problems (his girl was pretty damn hot). No amount of money, no magic bodyfat digit is going to fix your problem with women. It might effect the amount of women that will find you attractive, but unless you address your real issues,

It's a damn shame.

Very good point Basically, the guy had a dependent personality.

The hard part is to understand the fine differences between confidence from your woman and confidence from your self. This guy's confidence was obviously coming from his woman, and as soon as she rooted out, he's fvcked.

You might think you are a damn alpha, walking on the street with your pretty woman on your arm. Don't.

Inside her mind
Backbreaker I like your threads cause you give the other view from "The game"
I know when I first came here my main issue was finances among other things and guess what 3 years later it's still an issue.

I've met a few guys on this site, and believe it or not, they got issues from years of AFCness, so while these guys may be good looking, talk like Don juans they don't come of as one and even are labeled "creepy".

That's why right now women arent my main focus, my main focus is

1. Getting a car
2. Getting this money
3. Getting into shape

Good post. A person with a dependency personality before money will probably be even worse off with money. There have been many suicides and suicide attempts by wealthy people because of how someone else treats them.

A current event example of this issue is Pau Gasol of the lakers. Gasol played like sh1t the entire series and cost his team the season because he was going thru issues with his girlfriend. A lot of rich guys have very low self-esteem.

That doesn't mean you shouldn't try to get as rich as you can, we should all shoot for that. But don't think that money will magically solve all your character issues.

You essentially upped your VALUE in her eyes by showing her that, if she wants you, she has to at times do things that you like to do. You are SOMETHING after all. You are NOT FREE. If she wants to hang with you, it's going to cost her something — time, effort, money.

This happens quite a bit with guys in the professional industries. Women hate being away from their man so they make demands and threaten to leave them if they don't come back with them. If the woman is hot she knows will find a new man so that is why they do that. It is the man who has to be a man and decide what he wants out of life and not let any woman dictate to him how he should live his life. No disrespect to the guy you knew, but he was a weak man who let it get to him and it is a shame he let a woman do that to him. Money won't cure your problems, but it will sure make it a hell of a lot easier to live.

I wasted ten of my minutes reading about some strange little guy who was doing drugs. It wasn't just booze. It was hardcore stuff. Go read articles. I You took my ten minutes from me! I want those ten minutes back! I could have been watching Webster reruns if I had wanted to see such a strange little man.

Never try to read a woman's mind. It is a scary place. Ignore her confusing signals and mixed messages. Assume she is interested in you and act accordingly.

I read about this. The jockey was a cokehead and was awaiting felony trial for possession. So he was stressed and probably OD'd. It said nothing about his dumb girlfriend. Why did you leave that part out?

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
Money can't fix a person's personal problems. We've seen it a million times before with rock stars. That doesn't mean money is BAD, just that if you can't live a proper life with what you have NOW, you're NOT going to be able to live a proper life when you "make it".
