35-year-old virgin is feeling depressed and hopeless. Female advice columnist advises him with gems like "be yourself" and "just go on OKCupid!" (self.TheRedPill)

needsomehelp3211 が 投稿

Summary: Don't ask women for advice. Female solipsism rules their world, they are literally incapable of empathizing or understanding the troubles that men go through.

Article can be accessed through the Foreveralone thread here.

Another day, another woman trying to sabotage someone else's love life. Today that comes in the form of a letter written to Eva, a romantic advice columnist for The Guardian.

"Eva?" you ask. "Sounds like a woman... this won't end well." And you're right! Let's dive in.

Dear Eva, I’m 35 and I’ve never had a girlfriend.

I’m pretty unremarkable in most respects – neither fantastically attractive (if only), nor absolutely hideous. I’ve got plenty of friends, male and female. They always express confusion and disbelief that I’ve been unable to get a girlfriend in the 20 years or so I’ve been interested in the idea.

Apart from this, I’ve lived a full and active life, but somehow this particular aspect has passed me by. It’s a cliche, but it really did seem seem like one day all my friends were suddenly shacked up with a partner and squeezing out kids right, left and center.

The older I get, I don’t even know how to go about meeting women – I work in an almost exclusively male environment and most of my interests are male-dominated activities. I’ve heard the advice about salsa dancing for instance, but I think I’d be so awkward that my desperation would be obvious. I’d love to be able to introduce a girlfriend to family and friends, but the chances are surely becoming smaller the older I get. Thanks for any advice you can give.

So to recap, this guy is a 35 year old virgin who just doesn't know how to attract women. Society never helped him, much like it never helps any man who wants to be attractive. Now read the kind of advice that Eva gives...

Reading your letter I can’t help but wonder: do you really want a girlfriend? You note that you’d love to be able to introduce one to family and mates, but what would you want to do with her the rest of the time? If your life is full of other kinds of good relationships – and it certainly sounds like it is – then maybe you don’t need a girlfriend.

Translation: "You fucker, how dare you try to get out of the beta-orbiter zone! Get back in!" Typical female advice. She doesn't want him to improve, even after he's specifically said he would really like to be intimate with girls. She is internally so disgusted by the sight of a socially anxious virgin male that she's encouraging him to basically give up and drop out of the gene pool. Maybe become a gay uncle type of guy down the road, helping with other people's children.

A man would have offered actionable advice on how to improve: lift weights. Strengthen yourself mentally, learn empirically what women respond to the most, keep asking out until you get a hit, start making money.

But no. The advice from women is "meh. Just be happy with what you're got."

I say this as someone who has often found myself feeling a bit bad about being single,

Yes, this is her trying to empathize with him. In female-land, being single for a few months is exactly on par with being a mid-30s virgin male who's never even held a girl's hand in his life. Yessir, those two situations are definitely equal psychologically and emotionally.

That said! If you do want to continue looking for a partner, I think you’re probably a great candidate for online dating: not necessarily because you will meet The One that way, but because it will give you opportunities to meet Some Ones.

"I could go on Tinder and OKCupid and immediately have a hundred beta males offering me their services. I'm sure that the reverse will work in your situation! Right?"

Pay close attention to this letter, gentlemen. This is typical of the kind of female advice that society loves to toss around. Because deep down inside, women want beta males to stay beta. They need a padded group of orbiters to give them stuff without having to reciprocate. If men woke up and actually started becoming romantic successes, that dynamic would change. And that is why girls are scared of the Red Pill. It threatens to upset the current status quo, one that benefits females immensely.

TL;DR: Women don't give a shit about "sexually unworthy" men. Female advice is solipsistic, halfhearted and unhelpful. If you need help, ask a man because that's the only way you'll improve.

It's an incredibly depressing thought that if the Red Pill did not exist and I continued on the path I was on, I would either a) Suicide or b) become this empty shell of a Man.

Honestly I think suicide would come first. There is something very special about being a low SMV Man. It's a prison in your own body and depression is unavoidable. Having to be told to 'be yourself' or some other BS advice would just cause my brain to short circuit. Feeling one thing and being told another is too difficult to continue to bare.

It makes me rage internally whenever I realize that there are people in this world actively trying to suppress TRP.

Im ugly as fuck. Big nose. Big goofy ears. Work shitty hours so I don't get enough sleep, resulting in pretty prominent circles under my eyes.

I've also been out busting my ass in the gym for the past 4 years straight. Im in incredible shape, and instead of being completely hopeless and constantly alone, I can date 6's and I couldn't be happier.

Im currently in a relationship with a really awesome girl who maybe isn't a supermodel, but I really like her, and I honestly couldn't say she's unattractive at all.

Just because you aren't Tom Brady doesn't mean life isn't worth living. Taking control of my life to make myself a more attractive person has in turn made me a much happier person.

[–]teeelo 79ポイント80ポイント  (3子コメント)

Kudos to that, and congrats on your success.

There is no mainstream, politically correct therapy or life style plan that would have fixed me. No therapist, psychologist or friend would ever have been able to give me the truth and the tools I need to fix my life.

TRP is a fucking godsend crafted by the best bros in the world.

"Mainstream" advice is literally just saying what women want to hear.

Women want to believe (or just want other people to believe) that they are interested in guys who are "honest, caring, ambitious, etc..." They want to believe that they are so pure of heart that guys who "just be themselves" are what they're attracted to....

Not that I needed to explain why that is bullshit here.

[–]WingedScorpion 35ポイント36ポイント  (5子コメント)

You.

You need to write about this. I would say I'm a 7 with the fact that I've worked out and with nice clothes. But I'm not very attractive.

Girls have told me I'm an 8 with the game I spit, but when I look in a mirror and if I had my mouth taped, I know I'm a 7.

I can get 7's with a 60% success rate and I'm good with that.

The thing is, people go on and on about getting girls and people immediately imagine a perfect hottie.

I think we need more people like you to write an entire post about this. I have a friend who is ugly but he's tall and he's started lifting and he's still dating chubby 5-6's and he's happy!

Some people like you and me will know where our limits are out and work there. I used to strive for 8's all the time but it got exhausting so now I stick with 7's and if an 8 seems interesting or like I might have a chance I take it but I know there's a big possibility it's going to be a losing battle!

Do I hate myself and write posts about how "looks are everything" like all the other dumbasses around here? Fuck no, I work my level and I always strive for better. My friend works his level and is happy there.

I really think we need more people like you to talk about their experience because not all of us are born with a handsome face and we work with what we got. In your case it's the gym, in my case it's game.

People have told me I'm so smooth and I can get a girl to feel a million things when she's with me but all that won't count for this if she won't look at my twice. Which is why I've started lifting and the only reason she looks twice at my now is because of my arms(or body). My face is still unremarkable but now I have an entrance.

I'm just like you, but I think we have too many people here who consider themselves REALLY ugly and maybe they might be right or maybe they have just really been putting themselves down all these years but I think we need to take more steps to being realistic about possibilities and unless we have people like you telling their stories I do not think that will happen!

So when you have time, please make a post and make it in depth.

I think we could also stand to benefit from you writing an article about game. If you get really good results, you might have some useful insights that other RP guys could use to up their SMV. If you wrote an article on game and johnyann wrote an article about his workout, you could probably both jump up a point if you both stuck to each other's advice.

I think sometimes a benefit to being a man is how we can be unsightly and still be sought after. I think women are turned on by the idea that a monster of a man might dominate her, for lack of better words.

[–]Derbi50 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

"I think we have too many people here who consider themselves REALLY ugly"

The one thing feminists got right was to hate on todays unrealistic beauty standards (for men and women).

I always thought it was nonsense and just girls whining until I started lifting and realized no matter what I did I would never be a Hodge Twin. Maybe not even a Dom Mazetti.

The thing to keep in mind when a man is judging his own looks is the competition. Sure there are some JJ Watt looking mother fuckers out there that have everything, but most dudes are flawed in some respect. Short, asymmetrical face, small dick, etc.

Mitigate the things you can't change by improving the things you can and don't dwell on/beat yourself up about shit you can't improve. That way leads hopelessness and depression.

Also I have no qualms about fucking 5s. I think if more dudes hit up some practice girls below their weight class it would help them catch the bigger fish. Worked for me.

Build up the base of that pussy pyramid with 4s and 5s, and down the line your game and sex skills will have improved to the point that you wont feel completely hopeless about reaching for some 9s-10s for that cap stone.

[–]throwaway49274927 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think this just comes naturally as you get older. When you're young and dumb, everyone wants a 9 and dreams about having a 10. But damn, those are some unrealistic standards for most men.

I've been in an LTR with a girl that is a solid 7, bordering an 8 when she dresses herself up. Man, that is good enough for me. I don't need anything higher than that since she treats me insanely well.

But knowing where your limits are can be important. In the past I'd say I usually attracted 7s, sometimes an 8, and rarely a 9. Man, when that 9 came around, I was like holy fuck I am lucky as shit. Probably will never attract a 10, but that's alright. But if I chased 9s all my life, I probably wouldn't be very happy. And that sort of stability is the difference between depression and being very content when you have to work 60-70 hours a week.

[–]boston_of_gilead 21ポイント22ポイント  (0子コメント)

Thanks for that OP.

There is a tendency in this corner of the interwebz to basically say "if she isn't a 23 year old HB9 then you must be plugged in."

I hear your post and think of Elliott Hulse... Where the point isn't to be Arnold, but rather to become the strongest version of ourselves. That is what your post is.

Your post is truly alpha. This is because you have sorted out what makes you happy, and you pursue what makes you happy. There is no pandering, no compromise in your stance, since the stance regards matters of personal taste.

Well done, and I encourage you to post more in TRP when you can.

[–]T34_B4991n5 42ポイント43ポイント  (7子コメント)

I was 6'3", pretty good looking, above average intelligence, and relatively fit (with a few extra pounds).

Still, when I was taking women's advice for dating, I put so much fucking work into putting the pussy on the pedestal. What did I get? I was lonely, miserable, broke, and whenever I did manage to get into a relationship with a 5 or a 6, the woman never respected me and I got like the minimum amount of sex possible. The worst part was that I knew I was doing everything right. I was full sail ahead to a miserable life and probably suicide.

Any actual advice that real men did manage to sneak through to me, I dismissed, because I talked about it with my lady friends who were giving me awful advice, and "we" agreed to shame the men who gave me the good advice. "Those guys are assholes, don't listen to them."

So after a while I stopped trying, bored one night I hit the random button and I come upon this subreddit. I was shocked. SHOCKED. How could these people say such awful things about women? Women are teenagers? Why are all these people so angry at women? Dark triad manipulation tactics? WTF? I was so disgusted, that I decided it was enough internet for the day.

But I kept thinking about it, something gnawing at my brain, I had to investigate further. So I came here a few days later with an open mind. I read, and I read, and I read the whole fucking sidebar in one sitting. I was enthralled, the more I read, the more things started to make fucking sense for once. "Of course girls like assholes!" I thought to myself.

It took me a long while before I even started applying any of this, but I instantly could see relationship-dynamics in a whole new light, and using the TRP model, so many things made sense. I could actually understand women and their motivations for once in my life. I always thought women were complicated alien creatures, turns out they were way way simpler than that, but that kind of language is not allowed to be talked about (especially in front of boys).

Anyway, long story short, once I started applying this, I could actually get sex and respect from women for once in my life, and it was too fucking easy sometimes. Now I'm in a 2 year LTR with a woman I love, and we can't get enough of each-other. Yet I would not have survived our first meeting without TRP, and there are so many times I had to apply things I learned here for the betterment of our relationship. She found this place once, and tried to fully shame me for it, I was just like "Eww, misogynists", and it calmed her down, yet I talk with her about TRP concepts in a nicer way every few days, and she fully agrees with all of them, and even gives me examples from her life. If she only knew..

Now I still don't agree with any of the unempathetic dark-triad stuff slung around here, but everything else is fucking golden, and should be required reading for every boy wanting to become a man. TRP saved my life.

Edit: Holy shit, sorry for rant, didn't even notice how much I wrote.

I didn't even need to do that, in the beginning I sometimes just acted like a caricature of a complete apathetic asshole, and (some) women completely ate that shit up, it was hilarious, shocking, and a little disgusting for me. But I quickly realized I don't want anything to do with those type of women long-term, so I had to develop my own style of game, still the fundamentals taught here applied.

What you said, about a prison in your own body, I could not upvote that enough.

When I was young, that's what life was always like for me. I was never physically unattractive, and I managed to date a few girls, but I knew I was marginal. I was not very popular, not athletic (always picked last for teams). The only reason I ever clicked was because I was bright, and a few smart girls are already trying to line up prospects. I was fortunate that I was never an orbiter, primarily because I never bought girls stuff. However, seeing a nice girl walk by and just knowing I had no chance, its not just a prison of your own body, after awhile, it becomes a prison of your mind. You stop trying because you don't believe you can.

That's when you don't grow. Learn to use and to harness what you do well naturally and then work to amplify it.

It's called learned helplessness.

When elephants are babies, they get a metal chain locked around their ankle, so they try and try but they cannot escape.

As the elephant grows to an adult, the metal chain is replaced by a thin old rope, but the elephant doesn't even try to escape, because he knows it is futile from his past experiences.

Whoa - that's interesting insight. I've never even considered that view. I was also a late bloomer in terms of girls - brought up in a religious household. I have looks as my advantage and my thoughts were along the lines of "its been 10 years and I've never even kissed a girl - what the hell is wrong with them? Can't they even see me?"

Massive cognitive dissonance from being handsome that girls ignored me my entire life due to their fear of ME rejecting them. Which ironically lead to me being alone or dealing with really snotty, prissy, 8-10s who would try to take advantage of my then lack of game.

Each side has it's curse. Every man must evaluate his strengths and play to them, while making huge strides to eliminate weaknesses.

It's really interesting how male SMV works. I was also lucky enough to be born attractive, but grew up without male direction in my life. It's hard for a lot of people to believe that attractive guys can still be total losers and strike out with women. In my youth every relationship I was lucky enough to pull off was a ticking time bomb until she got fed up with my beta bullshit. They'd last months at the maximum.

Learning to spit game changed everything. And to think that such things are so taboo in society to discuss that it's preferable that men stay in the dark.

[–]MyReddit4 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Exactly. It's hard for me to imagine a time when I tried taking girls on Bible dates, or offering to buy things, bc it's what my mom said to do. Even though it felt so incongruent at the time.

The looks allows us to date in a higher league once our shit is together, but until then, being handsome and permanently alone leaves girls thinking wow, he looks like that & cant get any...there must be something really wrong with him... It's like the anti-preselection.

I'm only sharing this because it feels good to write, but I didn't even have my first GF till 23. She was a model, and had no idea I was a virgin, until she stumbled across my forum posts... Ironically, she was flattered a guy was trying to "figure it out" and she fell in love with me.

When I was 19 I distinctly remember hearing girls in the cafeteria gossiping about me. "yeah, he's such a stud, but I just can't imagine him ever with a girl." Guess they thought I was gay. The girl that said that ended up being the first girl to blow me. Then her best friend cheated on her bf with me for 9 months. Coincidentally right about the time I started lifting...funny, how that works...

It's out of the depth of depression that led me to begin my path to self-improvement about 8 years ago.

Yes, I never learned how to talk to women, and I was awkward, and a 25 year old virgin. The difference between myself and this dude, is he wasn't smart enough to learn from the right sources.

I mean, yea, 10 years ago, trying to find "pua" advice on the internet would have been difficult... But if you can't find the information today, you're not trying hard enough, or maybe you're just not smart enough to figure it out... and maybe you SHOULD be weeded out of the gene pool.

Depression is natural response.

  1. Women tell betas to be themselves.
  2. Beta is himself and encounters failure.
  3. Beta naturally says "something must be wrong with me."

All because beta assumes the woman must naturally be an expert on what women want.

I don't think not having a girlfriend or any female contact for that matter makes a man an empty shell. A man can have infinite access to pussy and still be an empty shell.

What defines an empty shell (in my mind), is a man doing nothing more than being born into this world and dying thereafter. A man without a dream is empty. It's the most important thing, and absolutely nothing can come before it in his heart. He'd be willing to sacrifice everything for it.

Of course, saying this anywhere would probably either label you as a psychopathic criminal or an autist.

I agree - but don't forget - not everyone gets to live their fairytale.

For much of human history, you were expected to be born, reproduce, and die. And that was pretty much mission accomplished.

Dreams and passion lead to a life well lived, even if it's only for yourself. It's a shame to think of how many live, die, and are forgotten. Sink into the ether.

Long before I ended up on TRP, it already seemed to me like "be yourself" was incredibly cruel advice to give unhappy people. I already am myself, that's the fucking problem.

If being yourself makes you so depressed you're considering suicide, then maybe the right advice isn't "keep doing that until you end up in a mental hospital". Maybe, just maybe, it would be smarter to help people find a way of life they're happy with. Help them overcome some of the problems in their lives that are making them so miserable.

But that wouldn't play into the modern "everything is innate" stereotype. If you're bad at math, or awkward, or fat, you shouldn't ever try to change that.

Because god forbid, you might succeed and start wondering what else you can change.

    Funny thing is, When I look on facebook. Those guys ended up nowhere. I'm still a virgin at 24 but I graduated college and have a great job. Whereas they have kids with girls they arent even together with and are fat/depressed or fading quickly. I was a late bloomer in terms of puberty and a lot of other things. I've only recently swallowed the pill and started self improvement but I am starting to feel a lot better and less depressed.

    The advantage of being a 25 year old fat or very skinny virgin with academic success is that you can turn around your life in one year. Work out, get a good haircut and one year later you are a good looking man with a good job.

    Whereas a sexual experienced 25 yo man without a good job can not just decide "In one year I want to be a doctor". And even worse, he can get fat within one year and is left with nothing.

    Academic success accumulates through life. While only your last one or two years of life are relevant for your success with women. In one or two years you can get fit, get into a new social circle that does not even know your former beta side and you are seen as an alpha. And the jock of high school just has to gain weight, move and now everybody sees him as a failed man who can not stop talking about his high school football experience.

    Good job. My older brother was in the same position and he married a fat Colombian who is literally a hb3. I haven't seen him an a year but he goes to her horrible family every other month on the other side of the country. She even likes all my shirtless selfies on Facebook which is fucking embarrassing.

    Don't worry, you'll get there. Just slowly build your SMV, maintain friendships that help you grow, and eventually way take steps to kill your anxiety and approach women. It's not as daunting after a while if you have a plan, short and long term goals, and the drive to get it done. By the time your 30 people will think you've been a lifelong ladies man.

    Thanks man, I appreciate the advice. A big mistake I made was not working out earlier. One thing I have going for me is my height. I grew very quickly and very late. I'm 6'4". Thing is, I wasn't eating right and the weight was catching up very slowly. Since I started working out recently I've put on 10lbs. I'm around 185 right now which is still fairly skinny but I've been lifting consistently for a couple of months now and enjoy the progress. If i stick with it i'll be in great shape for the summer, maybe even before then.

    One thing I wish I had done better when I was younger was tracking my progress and having a solid diet plan. Trust me, tracking your lift numbers and calories/macros pays off in spades.

    It means Sexual Market Value. It's basically an arbitrary measurement of how attractive you are to women. But not in terms of looks, although looks are a part of that. In terms of your whole self both inside and out.

    That's not necessarily true, though I do understand your point. I want to highlight that doing stupid/wreckless shit doesn't equate being attractive to women. I saw a kid here last week saying he wanted to "do drugs" to seem cooler and the people here rightfully explained that it wasn't the drugs that were attractive but the daring if I could call it that which could be seen as attractive.

    I have done a lot of drugs as well as done a lot of other stupid shit and I'm not old at all, yet because I was never taught I kinda stumbled through experiences with women like a lot of other guys here. What I'm saying is drugs don't equal anything special.

    i cant believe that so many guys still don't understand this "jerks" thing. that guy is not a jerk. he's a jerk to you because you are shit to him. he can dominant you easily. he doesn't want to be your friend. you have nothing he wants. girls don't like jerks. they like the kind of guy that can have any girl and those guys only act like jerks because they can throw out any girl and another one is up in line.

      Very few women understand the downward spiral that some men go through.

      1. Rejection decreases confidence
      2. Lower confidence lowers SMV
      3. Lower SMV increases rejection and reduces the number of women a man will approach
      4. Additional approaches breed more rejection, thus lowering confidence
      5. Rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat

      Having been in the cycle myself in my late teens and early 20s it wreaks havoc on confidence and ones ego, is brutally difficult to break out of and easy to backslide into. The downward spiral is something that some guys go through and it sounds like this guy. It's understandable because the male hamster starts to rationale in this position. "When I get into college I'll meet a bunch of women" then it doesn't happen, "When I get my degree and a job I'll meet a woman" then it doesn't happen, etc.

      Most women just don't understand how guys can fall into this spiral, give up and become disillusioned. After all women have been told how incredibly special they are, so guys must be falling over themselves to meet them, right? So any guy who has been single up until 35 simply must not want a woman. Of course that is not the case, but it goes to show a disconnect between how men and women view each others intents and actions. It's easy, and unfortunate, to see how a guy could get to 35 without ever getting a woman

      "When I get into college I'll meet a bunch of women" then it doesn't happen, "When I get my degree and a job I'll meet a woman"

      I knew a lot of guys in engineering school who thought this way. They frequently ended up married to a fat lady (with a big ugly tramp stamp from her "party years"), with mortgage, 2.3 kids, etc.

      Maybe I would have too, but I had a crazy skinny hippie girlfriend in college who fucked me ten thousand times. In today's SMP I guess the best I could have done would have been a chubby party girl. Anyway, after that I never thought vaginas were anything special. Plenty of gold diggers tried and failed to lock me down as a beta.

      I like how you said engineering guys. Honestly though, you're right. My stepdad is an engineer and his ex-wife is one of the most homely looking women I've ever seen. When he met my mom I'm sure he was like "WTF have I been doing with my life?!" But also, I've found that a lot of engineering folks (both men and women) lack a lot of social and dating skills.

      The difference is how long do you let the spiral continue. I began reading seduction books and dating advice books and posting online trying to get advice from men at 25. Because honestly, I was depressed to the point of considering weeding myself out of the gene pool just to speed up the process... I was willing to try anything, do anything, just to learn... except prostitutes (because of my blue pill upbringing)... God I was stupid. But I figured it out, and then it was just trial and error of making further and further progress. You don't have to be smart, you just have to know enough to know how to learn something, which is the very definition of intelligence. unintelligent people won't reproduce, good.

      The worst thing about the spiral is that you have to want to get out of it. Otherwise it can suck you in. The best advice I have for any guy stuck in the spiral is to go out and start talking to women. Go to the club and you don't have to go home with a girl, it doesn't make one a failure. Even the alphas-alpha, the ultimate slayer of pussy has had more women reject him than accept him.

      Once you are out of the spiral it is important to make sure one doesn't backslide into it. It is easy to let future rejections start the male hamster again; "Oh that one girl only slept with me because she is a slut", "she just wanted to make me her beta-bux", "back to normal with the rejection and other guys getting the girls". These are toxic thoughts that can toss a man right back into the spiral. Maybe the best strategy is once a guy has upward momentum, embrace it and use it as a catapult to get as far from the spiral as possible.

          You need to find ways to improve:

          • Income/career
          • Physique
          • Style/dress
          • Presence/speech
          • Social interaction/game

          You're on this sub already so you've got a leg up on most other guys. Use your advantage. You know what you need to improve, now do research and find out how to do it.

          you are 33. There are bunch of 33 years old right now who are:

          1. Locked in prison and am forced to get dicked everyday
          2. got his dick chopped off, or born impotent
          3. born with no eyesight, so has no idea whether a girl is good looking or not. Can't even watch porn as an option
          4. born in a shit backward place where there is 0 good looking women, even the decent one required tons of money for marriage
          5. dodging bullets or bombs to survive

          My suggestion:

          1. If you have mental issue, Take care of it first through a good professional.

          2. Once you can at least talk to people, go out to supermarket, stores, or restaurant. Any place that the peronnels usually are nicer due to their profession, and just talk about random things.

          ex: buying grocery and at the cash register You: (Look at the tabloid) LoL! This says that Aliens were found in this Texas ranch. Cashier: blah blah blah You: Yea, I know. Crazy world.

          Do it a couple of times until you are comfortable.

          1. Dress well. Don't look like a hobo that smells with unwashed clothing.

          2. talk to any woman who is alone by herself. Begin with something interesting about her. Ex: Crazy earring, the book she's reading. Watch some comic

          3. End the conversation within 5 mins, then excuse yourself by saying "Well, it's nice talking to you. I would really like to take you out to coffee sometimes. Could I get your#?"

          Gradually, you can tell whether if someone is interested in you or not.

          Most importantly, Improve yourself with real skills like writing code, fixing computer, playing guitars, and speak foreign languages. These are skills that would transfer well in your career as well as making you have interesting to talk about. ex: how many cuss words do they have in Spanish for pussy? or talk to women with foreign language to trip them up :D

          What i would do as general guide line:

          1. Improve: improve yourself by acquiring tangible skills

          2. Approach: Approach women who you find interesting

          3. Learn: Learn from your mistakes

          This, too. Talking to guys would build a group of people that you can do stuff with, on top of it, you can get job prospect through them, too.

          Ex: was lifting in Gym, two guys just randomly chat up about something. Amid the conversation, the young guy talk about losing his job recently. The older guy just whipped out his business card said: "I liked you, call this number. Tell them you know XXX. (Smile)." That was it.

          Thank you for your answer. I dont mental issues maybe just no confidence and low self-esteem. I can talk to women when I am drunk mostly, but sober I never know what to say. I will hit the gym soon, moving out and new apart has a gym nearby , I just need to find the courage to go once.

          Look at comic stand-up. Apply critical thinking on mundane things, then you will find out a lot of things on your mind to talk about: EX: Russel Peters. George Carlins, Bill hicks, Chris Rock, Bill Burr.

          They also provide a lot of sexual dynamic in their talk, fun yet educational :D

          Talking to women drunk is not always good if you can't do it sober. A lot of times, drunk people have a strong tolerance of erratic behaviors because they are either too into their own things or DGAF. Tons of guys crash and burn in crucial public speaking, yet be like the cool jerk who DGAF at parties.

          Lifting is like one of the way to improve you as a product. Anything that makes "YOU" look better or perform better, do it.

          Btw, sex with a fat belly does cramp your style when you try to switch it up. At least, that's my main reason to get fit, to feel better at sex.

          GYM is really good to do your things, just don't "planet fitness" (look at their ads and review, avoid those types of gyms) GayLubeOil and other rper have different workout suggestion, listen to their suggestion on that.

          I was a late bloomer myself. What I found was that even when you get those things, they don't 'complete' you. Being complete comes from within.

          But I think that women becoming financially independent has drastically risen their standards since they don't need resources the way they once did. Combine that with internet dating where every mediocre woman can get endless validation and women's hypergamy has gone into overdrive.

          Basically if you are in the bottom 80-90% of men, it is a very hard road to sow nowadays. Even when you get a relationship that is no guarantee of things working out. You may not be compatible, one of you may cheat, one of you may have resentment on all the opportunities you passed over, etc.

          It is better and cheaper to fuck prostitutes than it is to have a shitty girlfriend, baby-mother, wife, or ex-wife raping your bank account. Consider yourself lucky for having dodged the bloodsucking bitch bullet. Prostitutes can't ask you for shit after you finish fucking them and pay them. Girlfriends, wives, etc. can just continue with a non-stop stream of demands. Also, by their 30s and up, most women have accumulated a large amount of baggage. Get into a relationship with them and you have to put up with that shit. Their problems become your problems.

          This article/letter is a perfect example of why you never ask a woman for advice.

          First: women tell you what you want to hear and not what you need to know.

          Second: Women and betas always project what the other sex finds attractive to them as if the other sex finds those same things attractive in you.

          Third: As others have said here: forget what they say, look at what they do!

          As the writer of this thread stated... "Women want beta males to stay beta." Especially in there mid-thirties. By then they are hitting the wall and they want a "provider". And that provider isn't going to be an alpha male or a red-piller! Those guys are on to younger women and she is left with the kids and her wrinkles. And she probably wonders why the guys could not care less about her nice home and good career.

          The best advice for this guy would be to get to the gym, concentrate on his finances and spend at least a 1/2 hour a day on YouTube checking out my man Tom Leykis.

          I'm sorry if I offend some beta's sensibilities, but I have to call it as I see it.

          My jaw dropped when I read the question, "Do you really want a girlfriend?" She must be out of her mind.

          But then I thought about it a bit more... This guy is 35. I can't imagine going that long without being with a woman. I simply want it too much to let that happen, it's not even an option in my mind. Which makes me feel he must not want it enough, or he would have gone for it by now.

          It's a difficult situation to relate to, I start wondering if maybe we are missing information, like he has Aspergers or something...

          Many people want things. Few will ever stand up and take them. I believe that everyone has the capability to do so, though. Compare it to sitting in a meeting, but having to piss really fucking badly. Eventually you'll either get up and go piss, risking appearing rude, or you'll hold it in and suppress that urge and you'd eventually piss on yourself.

          That's the situation betas are in. They're too afraid to get up and satisfy their natural urges. They don't want to be aggressive, they don't want competition or conflict. They don't want to confront their awkwardness, which would go away if they'd just start working towards it. These "men" would rather piss on themselves than to get their needs met.

          Somehow these men (and many of us in the past, myself included) have separated ourselves from nature so far to the point that we think that we don't have to compete and strive for valuable things such as basic survival needs and sexual reproduction.

          Males compete and grind for everything they want or need in life, just the fucking way it is, boys. Remember that you exist in nature, not separate from it, and that you must play your part. As a male, that means you have two choices - compete or die.

          Some blokes are not meant to breed. This is why Red Pill is very different from seduction. Deal with terms of your SMV and accepting being an incredible low SMV man.

          You then forge new paths of self improvement, foregoing the fantasy of women to focus on other things like wealth, power, fitness.

          Actually, no.

          Maybe the top 20% of men make AVERAGE women wet simply by the way they look. (If you want to get HOT women simply by looking good yourself, being in the top 20% is not even enough.)

          Another 40% of men can get OKAY women actually by being nice to them and providing. The classic beta bux. This is not at all the lowest of men.

          There are also the lowest 40% of men. They have to spend money and women and even then they just get fat women or no women at all.

          Getting a basic slut when she is in her 30s is not at all the worst that can happen to a man. It is average. The lowest of men do not even get this.

            Reading your letter I can’t help but wonder: do you really want a girlfriend? You note that you’d love to be able to introduce one to family and mates, but what would you want to do with her the rest of the time? If your life is full of other kinds of good relationships – and it certainly sounds like it is – then maybe you don’t need a girlfriend.

            Translation: "You fucker, how dare you try to get out of the beta-orbiter zone! Get back in!" Typical female advice. She doesn't want him to improve, even after he's specifically said he would really like to be intimate with girls. She is internally so disgusted by the sight of a socially anxious virgin male that she's encouraging him to basically give up and drop out of the gene pool. Maybe become a gay uncle type of guy down the road, helping with other people's children.

            A bit harsh here mate. She can't fathom what it is for men on the dating market. That's all. For a (non-incredibly-ugly) woman, you can't go single through your 20's without actually wanting to stay single, so her default line of reasoning is that he probably simply doesn't want it. No need to see evil in her answer here.

            EDIT: Your whole post is trying to see evil intent in her answer. There's not. She is simply unable to empathise with a man's dating issues because of her solipsism. Your conclusion stands.

            • Addendum: just to clarify: it's ok guys, I'm not trying to tone-troll. Im not criticising the anger phase. I'm just discussing redpill analysis. To me, this specific case is more a "failure to empathise through solipsism" rather than a "threat to the FI of a BB stepping out of his role" that OP saw in it. That's all.

            If I had to guess, I'd say OP is being overly harsh on purpose to "shock" readers out of any bluepill sentiments. I doubt OP actually believes Eva is some plotting evil Disney villain; but RedPill often uses inflammatory language in order to make a solid point.

            [–]Endorsed ContributorInvalidity 25ポイント26ポイント  (1子コメント)

            TRP uses inflammatory language often to highlight the seriousness of the topic being discussed. Often times, calm, rational language does not quite get the point across to someone who is thinking emotionally.

            I think there's also something to be said for rational analysis. I've spoken with many redpillers who can't have a discussion on relationships without speaking this way. There needs to be balance.

            Thing is, OP is not harsh, but just wrong.

            Eva did not think: "How can I put this beta male into his place?"

            Eva thought: "If I do not get laid or if I am single, it is because I want to. So it is the same for him... Just create an online profile and hundreds of women want to take your virginity."

            I think what she's trying to do is to just make him feel better. That's the role she plays as an advice column. The words are filler. She's just saying "there, there." She has no practical advice because she has no idea what he's going through.

            The idea that she's deliberately trying to hold him down is rather misguided.

              Yeah, and the fact that they're so predictable is why it's possible to account for, moderate, and control their behavior. You are a human being - every single fibre of your consciousness is dedicated to spotting and exploiting 'predictable situations'. You can prevent women actively acting 'like that' by not being a pussy. The fundamentally pathetic idea in your post is that you still fail to understand that preventing women acting like retarded ho's is your responsibility. They cannot do it themselves.

              The tiger that attacked Siegfried and Roy (whichever one) was a trained animal they had for ages. One day the tiger attacks the guy. Everyone said "the tiger went crazy."

              No, more like "the tiger went tiger." It could even be argued the tiger was crazy up until that moment.

              Anyhow, the victim forgave the tiger, because he always understood that the glass is already broken, and "tigers gonna tiger."

              "Be yourself" is shitty advice to everyone always. The proper advice is "pay attention to what makes men attractive to women, and fake that until you are that. Once you have had 3 women in one day, and 7 women in 7 days, then AND ONLY THEN you may start 'being yourself.'"

              People really misread this one because OP mislabeled the title. He starts off by saying a 35 year old virgin but no where in the guys letter does he mention being a virgin, OP just went ahead and took some liberties there which really primed us readers. The author of the letter most likely has had several female partners though none have seemed to last more than a short period of time. He's likely a fairly well adjusted man who likely over rates himself and may have been looking for THE ONE instead of someone that he gets along with but isnt perfect. Im speculating here but OP took liberties here to bash both the author and Eva for really no good reason.

              Here's the advice I give men like this.

              Get a hooker. Why not? Is it embarrassing? More embarrassing than being a 35 year old virgin?

              Get it out of your system, then get out there and start makcing.

              Let me tell you something about hookers. If you're pedestalizing women, and have lofty, unrealistic views on relationships, a whore is a quick, bitter pill to get that nasty mindset right out of you're system. You've got a virgin that wants to fall in love, the perfect woman, someone he can be perfectly at ease with, or whatever, and maybe that's what's taking him so long to get laid. What quicker way to get him over that shit than if he has to blatantly admit to himself that he just needs some god damn pussy?

              Seriously, I have this buddy, he had some trouble with the ladies, started frequenting some hookers out of desperation, did that a bit too long and spent a bit too much, now that motherfucker is banging chicks I have problems pulling and getting them to do shit I wouldn't even be interested in.

              Actually, I've found that women will move heaven and Earth in order to get sex and commitment from Brent, captain of the lacrosse team. But that's because he's muscular, dominant - a leader who towers over everyone else in the room. Women will care a lot about that type of guy.

              Too bad that type of guy also has so many options he doesn't need to commit to any one woman.

                He never said he was a virgin. He said he couldnt find a special snowflake to call his own.

                The only reason he even thinks he wants this, is because he has never had it. I bet many married stiffs would look at his life of doing his own thing and spending his money on exactly what he wanted - and feel very jealous. Same for all the divorced dudes who are paying massive child support.

                  My thoughts on women have gotten so simple as I've gotten older. Sexual attraction begets sex. If you want a woman to lust after you get the fitnotes app, subscribe to reddits spotify workout playlist and go ham 6 days a week for a few months. Make sure your lifts increase, eat accordingly, get a massive back, arms and chest and watch the poon roll in.

                  Translation: "You fucker, how dare you try to get out of the beta-orbiter zone! Get back in!" Typical female advice. She doesn't want him to improve, even after he's specifically said he would really like to be intimate with girls.

                  No. Hanlon's Razor: “Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.”

                  She isn't trying to condemn the guy to a lifetime of solitude, she just can't wrap her mind around the fact that someone can be for all intents and purposes normal with normal wants and desires and still end up romance- and sexless. He either has to be defective or (subconsciously) not really want a partner, because the experience of women doesn't account for the possibility that you're too unremarkable to attract anyone without working your ass of for it.

                  So yeah, you're right, that article is an example for female solipsism.

                  I think the other part of the problem is that this woman genuinely believes what she is saying. She isn't aware of her underlying instinctive motivations, and may even think that her advice is genuinely helpful.

                  "Niceness" and social harmony is valued more than truth or progress among BluePill social circles (I don't want to say feminine, mostly because it happens in any social circle where the individuals have fragile self-images, including male beta ones). Therefore, women often won't tell one another the truth.

                  The thing is, the advice she give IS TRUE. For OTHER FEMALES. So, she's either doing what OP says she's doing in terms of being annoyed at the "rising-beta", or she genuinely (naively) believes what she's saying is helpful advice. Females are the non-expendable sex as far as evolution is concerned. As many have mentioned here, most women can in fact remain mediocre and still attract mates.

Did 100 ridiculous things. She was lower SMV than me but significantly higher than the ex wife who hadn't been interested in me in years. Banged the chick for a couple weeks and my confidence went through the roof. I was terrified I'd never get laid again post divorce.

                  A beta male is to a woman what a slut who has sex with no strings attached is to a guy. Both genders want to maximize the resources they extract from the other gender while giving as few resources themselves.

                  So women want men to remain desperate beta orbiters who they can hit up for validation and money, men want women to be no strings attached sluts.

                  There have been some amazing posts on TRP in the past from endorsed contributors that touched on this topic with serious insight and wisdom.

                  As other's have commented; Eva isn't being malicious to the extent you're giving her credit for. She's simply incapable of understanding the situation because she's never found herself in something similar. The advice she's administering is relevant to her past experiences, not his current situation.

                  This doesn't make her a monster or a malevolent tormentor of beta's. It just makes her female.

                  TL;DR: Women don't give a shit about "sexually unworthy" men.

                  That should read "Women can't give a shit about "sexually unworthy" men." Nor can they understand them in any sense because the phrase 'sexually unworthy woman' is oxymoronic. It literally can't happen for women. How can they be expected to understand such men when there is no female corollary?

                  Female advice is solipsistic, halfhearted and unhelpful. If you need help, ask a man because that's the only way you'll improve.

                  Which is why TRP exists. The insightful posts I mentioned earlier are discussions of this. Every man here has heard the words "just be yourself" because we all have mothers. They weren't trying to be spiteful or sabotage us as children. They offered advice they saw as being relevant and beneficial because it's the advice that was helpful to them in the past. It's dogshit advice for men even though proffered with a sincere desire to help.

                  Don't forget Hanlon's Razor: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity (or ignorance).

                  It also helps to remember that women don't know what's good for themselves most of the time. It's hardly surprising that the advice they give to others is just as bad as the advice they give themselves and each other.

                  I think this woman and women in generally actually think that they're giving good advice. The cognitive dissonance between their thoughts about what works for guys and what actually works prevents them from seeing that they're spouting garbage.

                  This right here. Women can't understand there is a difference between what they want to work with them and what actually does.

                  I think it's a safe bet to assume this guy is ridiculously overweight. So, my first advice is to join a gym and get on a strict diet.

                  There are many threads here like the one discussed. These guys overwhelmingly find an excuse to avoid every good piece if advice. I once responded that working out is a fantastic way to improve your dating prowess. The guy returns with "so, just become a meat-head? Yeah, no thanks."

                  To the OPs post: If this was a problem he was really worried about he would have fixed it already.

                  You can only help those who want to help themselves.

                  I've gotten the "do you need a girlfriend, you seem happy" comment in several LTRs. I assume that's a comfort test.

                  In this context it's quite an offensive thing to say to someone. Telling someone you know what they need more than they do never ends well, even if they're asking for advice.

                  Women don't give a shit about "sexually unworthy" men.

                  True, but separate from all statements.

                  Female advice is solipsistic, halfhearted and unhelpful.

                  Also true. Also separate. They have no clue, because.....women.

                  If you need help, ask a man because that's the only way you'll improve.

                  Bingo. Problem is the guy feels bad about the whole situation, feels bad he'd have to go ask his peers...who, if a friend would probably would give it two seconds, and say something like: "Are you fucking kidding me? You're 80lb overweight, you dress like shit, you smell like shit, you make shit money, you play World of Warcraft all day, and you live with your mom. There's a shit-ton you need to start working on. Meet me in the morning, we'll go for a run".

                  Worst advice ever for this guy.

                  She practically told him to go MGTOW. She basically admitted that other than bringing her home to his familly, a girlfriend will probably be of little value to him.

                  Can you imagine that without /TRP/ and other PUA communities most adolescent males in a female-dominated environment (single mother, multiple sisters, pussy-whipped father) would be in this situation.

                  I feel sorry for most of the men that are in the situation OP described, there must be plenty people that were just born in the wrong household or didn't look/care to look at the right types of advice.

                  And that is why girls are scared of the Red Pill. It threatens to upset the current status quo, one that benefits females immensely.

                  Exactly. Women need the situation to be exactly as it is right now. Majority of betas, a few alphas.
