For those that follow anything I post here, you know I've talked a lot about empathy. If empathy closes the gap on perceived value, and will actively hurt me if I am perceived higher, why am I using it? I love theory, and I don't care if other's feel its useless, it hasn't been for me. I'm not conv...

I don't think you can all out "the meta frame" like that, it sounds try-hard. "I won't chase you" is not something a genuinely high value guy would say, he wouldn't waste words on that. Agreed, saying "I won't chase", 100% doesn't work. I think there actually is some way to accomplish this using ei...

I don't have skin in the game regarding surgery options being good or bad. I am curious on the risks though. Even if you axiomatically accept that the good outcomes are really good, what are the chances for great, good, mediocre, bad, and devastating outcomes? Take breast enlargement or BBL. The spe...

My personal thoughts for my own success/failure has been there's 5 elements to success, in this order: 1. Hard work / consistent habits 2. Courage 3. Strategy 4. Time / Luck 5. Faith The key to #1 is mentally getting off on knocking out your daily habits. You need to turn them from a chore into a do...

Might be need to slowly get used to it, or just be more disciplined with bars closing at 3 am, if I don't pull it means in bed by 3:30 am and sleep in the best I can I'm not saying this as some curmudgeon, but staying out this late when the rest of your schedule is normal DESTROYS you. I feel like ...

Unfortunately that's a trait that is in short supply these days.

100% agree with what you said except this.

FORTUNATELY, not unfortunately.

If people want ignore free money on the floor, I'm happy to pick it up if they don't want it.

Having heard me talk about rough/primal sex earlier, she mentions that she really wants to do more of that, saying she wants to be dominated more organically and not so planned out, more in the moment. This was my biggest ick with girls heavy into the kink scene. This over-reliance and crutching on...

I understand what you mean but i’m just fucking weak. I try but shit that everyone else has no fucking problem doing scares me. I can’t fucking talk to people unless they talk to me first; i can’t fucking approach girls period. I’ve ghosted on fucking 80% of any of the dates i was ever supposed to ...

I always like the tone you write with, hard to describe but it's kinda positive/secure and very charismatic - I suspect you have an excellent vibe in person. Enjoy the grand prix, very jealous! I think its one of the biggest factors to his success. Look how dejected, apathetic, or nihilistic the st...

IMO, its not about 'needing' more. If you frame it that way, obviously it rings hollow, hence why you don't care. There's a couple of negative reasons that are real: 1. You drove yourself out of complacency and achieved these things because of the NEED. Not because you're just a disciplined person. ...

my brain is honestly deluding me into feeling accomplished so i don't have to evolve. because evolving is scary and means you have to suck. You are accomplished. The real issue that no one talks about is the accomplishments don't mean anything other than in a short few minute window where theyre ha...

i should be focusing on HOW i live my life to BE in a STATE of life fulfillment, as opposed to "achieving a specific milestone to reach the peak of life fulfillment" This is a paradigm shift and it is hard. Being a sexless loser and dreaming of all the women you'll have in the future if you do 1 mo...

It's actually crazy how many options women have. Knowing this, especially when you're not doing well with your sex life, hurts like hell, and can lend itself to hopelessness. What? Why? What does one have to do with another? Why is her appeal being so high a negative hit to your emotions? You can e...

I am feeling a little stuckness or like chicken and egg when it comes to Porn use it's helping and hurting me at the same time I feel it is a coping mechanism. The annoying part is I have not fully gone into the underlying root of it, but then again that could just come with time, or it could just ...
