Good post. I hope that you are happier now, it it seems like you are.

u/ex_addict_bro, you have indeed come a long way and changed a lot. You are propably one of the most intense guys here. No half meusures. This post is amazing. From your early crazy posts to this one. I applaud you sir. Moving out of the toxic enviroment has changed you. Well done. From an angry bull in a chinashop to a guided missile.

I will NEVER EVER allow a woman to manipulate my self-worth with her words

That is gold there. If every man can just get that into his head.

You're barely recognizable as compared to before. I can't think of anything that could be better than that.

Yeah, but kind of manic, right? I mean, I just read through 3 or 4 of his submissions, and frankly, I'm a little concerned this guy isn't on a far swing of the pendulum. I hope not. But just a few months ago he was sort-of getting back with the ex (until she blew it up) and wondering if he should go to the movies with a girl. Lots of words, lots of confidence, hope it's real for his sake.

True, he's got issues still. Seemed appreciably more coherent to me though.

I see lots of reflection, but still mostly focused on your ex-wife's shit and not your own rocky road of setbacks and recovery. Your advice about BPD and addicts is spot on though. And it's clear that you're working hard toward your MAP -- getting rid of toxic people and focusing on yourself.

You're the exception that proves the rule: you can't fix them, you can only fix yourself.

Best of luck to you and your boys!

MRP is not about saving a marriage. It is about making you a better man, whether you stay married or not.

My condolences that your marriage did not work out - but I am happy for the significant growth you have made in yourself, which is making all of your future relationships soo much better.

Good post. I did almost the same thing bro. With a program girl. They're as sick as we are. Stay away. Thank God I didn't marry her because my pussy whipped ass was thinking about it. Good part is that the emotional pain lead me to learn what codependency looks like so that I could do something about it. Every time I start feeling sorry for myself, I remember that. At least I know the Truth. And in good time, the Truth will continue to set me free. Bless.

What is a program girl?

This is not a MRP term and if you don't know what either word means in this context, especially grouped together, then consider yourself fortunate. Twice. After that just let it go.

Program girl = I'm guessing a woman in a 12 step recovery program of some kind.

Take it from me - for LTRs, avoid any woman who has ever been in treatment for any kind of addiction. The baggage, oh Lord, the baggage.

This exactly.

I had a very unique chance to meet a few codependent women in last few months.

One threw a tantrum on a second date when I told her to pay for her own coffee (married to a drug addict, he moved out 3 yrs ago, he has a dautgher with her, he won't even pay alimony and she won't sue him).

Second is one hour away (a girl from my last workplace). Tried to LDR me, the same way my ex wife LDRed that two guys (at least two I know of). She's actually a decent woman (decided to divorce absent drinking husband, went to codependent anonymous and some therapy) - I actually explained to her that LDRs are the new heroine, we met, we spoke, I hold no contact since then (she's no use for me and she already has all the info she needed from me).

Third one - I decided to ask her out because she was looking at me that very special way, I'm not sure if you understand, that way that only addict and codependent can look at themselves. Turns out she was married to a pedophile (a specific sex addict). I actually suppose she has a drinking problem, but when I realized who she is, I decided to drop that.

They are fucked.

MRP TAKEAWAY: If you are an ex-drunken captain, she may be not only pissed first officer. She may be BPD first officer. She will never get normal. Don't use this as an excuse, check if she improves. If she doesn't, if she cheats, drop her first, then get some help, just don't think about it too much or you will be back to alcohol sooner than you think.

But you can cure BPD? I was 28 when I realized that my dad had a drinking problem. I was 32 when I realized that I have a drinking problem. I was 37 when I realized I am a codependent and narcissistic. There is still long way before me. If your wife has BPD or is an ACA, it may took many years for her to get out of denial IF SHE EVER GETS OUT OF IT. It may not happen as well. Save yourself, save your kids, first your own oxygen mask.

Ha! The stewardess rule of life. This rule is a vague and undefined pointer toward having a MAP.

Good post. Your conclusions on female orgasms, as related to the woman's view of the man, are consistent with my experiences as well. I also concure with your thinking on 'just fuck 'em hard' without regard for their orgasm if they don't/can't cum. In fact, sometimes a woman will appreciate and instinctually be more "respectful" of the man who 'just wants her' rather than the man who is constantly trying to please her.

Good ownership. Lots of clarity. Still anger. That too will pass. May you be well.

Water is wet? Since, when? I hope you have some reliable sources to back up that statement.

You need to find that book called Sex God Method. Women need a combination of 4 things during sex. It's called DEVI, DOMINANCE EMOTION VARIETY IMMERSION. You need to find the right mixture and then always be changing it. SGM will make your woman cum. Of course you shouldn't care either way. Woman often don't care if they cum, they just want to please you. Other times they want to spend all night in bed. Even further sometimes they just want you to fuck them so you guys can get on with your day.

Women lie about everything and even more especially when it matters. Every woman I have been with has told me Im the best they ever had, the biggest, and the most awesome. Until I wasnt. She doesn't want to hurt your ego while she is still considering if you are betabux enough to give her the life style she wants.

Been there, read 2/3 of it. My opinion on focusing on making a woman cum is in the post. I'll finish SGM someday. For me and my own pleasure.

This is why I'm fucking ignoring that. Already told FWB my opinion on words. If she says anything close to this in the future, I'll let her know I don't believe that and I'm not interested, of course indirectly.

When a girl told me I'm her first guy since 3 years I just laughed it off. It has nothing to do with me being awesome (which I am). It has a lot to do with her fucked up head and her being blocked sexually - if it was the truth. I doubt it was.

They always know what we need to hear. This is why we need to learn not to hear this what we would love to hear. This is why we need to give those things to ourselves. To be awesome, not to have a woman which tells us we're awesome.

Do you find yourself catering life choices (job, vacation, moving) to remaining local to your boys?

I don't know their ages - but if they are young, they need that masculine role model.

If I were to get divorced I don't know if I'd remain local. Ultimately I believe I would because of the kids, but at the same time - if I'm separated from my wife I'd want to just go somewhere else and experience something new.

Of course. 8, 6 and 1.5 yrs old. They need me. And, as for my services, I think I'll be able to find job worldwide.

This is exactly the same thing I am thinking. I'd hit the road straight away, but those boys need me more, than I need another adventure.

At least for now.

Great post! This is an interesting perspective. However, you are still focusing on your ex-wife. Obviously for this post that was the point- the 12th step is to help others, after all.

I ask her to come to my flat instead.

This is better than pussy begging, but still not as good as telling her what to do or telling her directly what you want:

"I want you to come over today."

Have you read "The Natural" and "Day Bang." PUA is your next stop and this time find a few that are not crazy.

Great post. This makes the good posts over at TRP look like toilet paper, because you have lived a life worth talking about. Unlike young guys with theory disconnected from a life.

I hope your life is better now, now that you've crawled out of the whole you've been.
