Good post and funny as always.

Personally, I wasn't too happy in the Bluepill prison of consciousness and I had no idea why. Id bet most of us look back and feel the same way. Powerless and punching below our weight

Same. I guess all of us in Plato's cave had some faint gut feeling that something was not quite right. But then, the shadows on the wall were everything we ever known and everyone around us seemed so invested in it, so we'd forget the gut feeling and try to find an answer to that unhappiness somewhere else.

I read the cave in hs when I was blue pill and didn't really understand it. I took a philosophy class in college last year and it finally hit me- red pill was crawling out of the cave and seeing the light

This. It wasn't that I was unhappy, it was that my rational mind could make no sense of what I was observing. Having the blinders taken off was refreshing. Yes there was the obligatory rage mode, but then acceptance.

Realizing that the only thing I could change was me gave me the motivation to put down the bottle and join the gym.

I found it more like a lottery. You're success is completely random, and forces outside your control can completely upend it.

I hated that feeling of a house of cards.

I would rather live with hardship, so long as I had control over it

[–]Endorsed ContributorSirGaetanDugas 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Interesting.

If it were a lottery than it wouldnt have mattered if I bought every damn ticket cause I was losing and losing no matter what.

Better now, than at 50, with 30 years of lucky success to deprogram.

Imagine the mental realignment of an epiphany phase woman when you're that far along. Those are the guys who usually put a bullet in their head, or kill the STBX and wait for the cops to show up.

Thankfully, you failed fast and early. As did I.

I'm coming up fast on that... I wish I had known about RP when my first LTR broke down in my early 20's.

It's come late in life, but RP and all it's bitterness and truth, is a godsend. A bit depressing at times, because we've been sold a false vision. But I'd rather have reality than not.

Now to just teach my boys to be RP... the challenge ahead for a seperated father...

Completely. As OP writes the blue pill world is so simple - yet they never get the results they want. Funny how that works. It's worse still to imagine where, and what, I'd be if I hadn't found TRP.

[–]Manwith1name 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (0子コメント)

The cognitive dissonance I experienced from doing the things I was told I should do to succeed and having it blow up in my face every single time had me down right suicidal at times. Eventually I began evolving a red pill mindset out of sheer "fuck you" before I found this font of wisdom.

[–]TheYoungOwl_ 12 ポイント13 ポイント  (0子コメント)

The middle of this post truly resonates with me, I became a full fledged cynic because the red pill taught me the realities of human nature. Sometimes I wish I never woke up.

[–]Endorsed Contributorvandaalen 26 ポイント27 ポイント  (9子コメント)

Amen.

The task at hand is so daunting that most will choose to reload the Blue Pill. [...] They'll claim that masculinity isn't about having sex with women. [...] so that they can reload their Blue Pill programming and lie to themselves instead of changing themselves.

Just in the process of writing a long and elaborate rant on that matter, in order to give my PTSD-ridden mind some relief from spending hours after hours over at the front at asktrp, fighting of those asshats' bullshit one by one in close combat.

I see you pop up their often. It really does seem like they fight your advice, no matter how solid.

"I'm too fat"

"Lose weight, you won't be fat"

"FUCK YOU I'M BIG BONED"

I don't know how the EC's do it. The smell of desperation and hamster sweat would kill me.

[–]Endorsed Contributorvandaalen 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (1子コメント)

They are still the minority though, to be fair and the PMs by guys for whom my advice had a positive impact on their lives make up for it.

I keep coming there, because I have been all of those guys myself and I know how hard becoming a better version of yourself is (and that it never ends), but I also know what waits for you if you stick to it.

You really do gods work. I lurk and read. I have marginal success.

Why? They either want to do the work or they don't. It has to come from inside and no amount of tough love will change that.

The hardest part for me is simply that loving a woman like before is impossible; there is no mystery or wonder to anything at all anymore. Like I can hear my fiancé say "I love you" but I know it means "I think I love you because I know you have resources and can lead me..."

Its a bit like reading a novel and deconstructing everything - it loses its poetic value.

Faced with such a stark reality, its no wonder...

[–]lowdylondalousey 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Look at it back the other way. When you say you love her, what do you mean? You love her ass, you love the chocolate brownies she makes on Sundays, you might love the way she reacts to certain situations. How is that much different? It's just as superficial really. If she lost her vagina in a freak climbing accident, would you stay with her? If you became permanently disabled, would you expect her to stay?

Female sexual strategy is no more or less "ethical" or "virtuous" than male sexual strategy. Its the same shit with different parameters. All you've done is discovered the caveats. She'd feel exactly the same if she discovered your subconscious motivations behind "love".

This is a great comment, its really insightful, thanks. I love the fact that she makes me feel like the King, even though I know its a game. :)

Try not to think of it as a game. It's not. You've just learned the parameters of an authentic life.

You can still love women but its more in the way that a father loves his daughter than a boy loves his mommy.

[–]theONE843663 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeh I don't get the whole "mommy" thing it's retarded. And yeh I can't love women anymore after the red pill I can however enjoy them just fine. I can only love myself. And that's more than enough.

Not even as articulate. She feels tingles, says words to make feelings congruent with reality.

I don't miss the illusion personally, same as I used to think I could jump off my roof with an umbrella as a kid. Childhood fantasies give way to the wonders of adult life.

The task at hand is so daunting

Maybe I was never as deep into the blue pill mindset as some of the guys that come here and give up, or maybe I'm just ridiculously handsome; but I feel like the task at hand isn't actually that daunting. You start lifting a few times a week, quit eating like shit, stop relying on tinder and start approaching a few girls here and there, cut out the porn, replace your blue pill thoughts and behaviors with red pill ones, and overall stop letting people fuck you in the ass...and now all of a sudden life ain't so bad.

[–]mushroommountains 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Oh I have and I know exactly who you're talking about, I just can't understand their thought process to make things seem so daunting. They decide lifting is too hard and get their hamsters busy figuring out how to rationalize it as unimportant before they even step foot in a gym

I just can't understand their thought process to make things seem so daunting.

One's greatest obstacle is the self. Some people just don't want to succeed I guess.

[–]Swole_is_life 9 ポイント10 ポイント  (3子コメント)

When the most difficult thing you've ever done is collect them all, lifting a few times a week does sound daunting. You underestimate just how pathetic the average guy gets if allowed to do so.

Women don't shit test to annoy you, they do it because they want to make sure any offspring produced with you isn't 50% Doritos. The bar is really quite low and keeps getting lower. To borrow from George Carlin a little, think of how pathetic the average man is, then realize that half of them are worse than that.

[–]aftsov 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Honesty, are they though? How pathetic is the average man?

I like to have multiple projects going on at once, and like to work non-stop on my dreams. I tend to think everyone does that.

[–]Swole_is_life 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yes, most really are. The average man wants to go do a half-ass job he doesn't like making money to support a family that doesn't respect him, eat food that makes him fat, come home to yell at a screen watching other men play sports, and drink enough beer to numb it all so that he can do it again tomorrow.

And those are the men we consider normal and manly! Heaven help you if you don't like beer and would rather play video games than watch sports.

[–]TomFoo 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (0子コメント)

The Red Pill not only awakens you from the sexual, relational and cultural lies but from the mental and intellectual ones as well. Learning may begin with reading and discussion, but that's only the start. Genuine comprehension --and thus, transformatiom-- emits from action, practice and discipline.

This is boiled down to one verb, one new habit: Lift.

[–]Endorsed ContributorNeoreactionSafe 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (0子コメント)

 

With the Red Pill "it's never over".

There is no destination where you rest.

The process of getting to the Truth through the fog of Myth is a never ending struggle.

Rigid thinking of any kind is your true enemy because that means you aren't getting closer to the Truth anymore. (you become "dead" at that point)

 

The problem with the Red Pill is that it takes the sedative from you. Everything is not okay. Everything is not going to be fine in fact it's getting worse.

 

The Red Pill isn't some "happy pill" it's something where dark hidden things are brought to the surface. The Red Pill will ignite a fire in you.

Those guys getting laid are assholes. The women sleeping with them are confused. I am going to find my soul mate. The guys getting promoted are jerks. If I work hard the company will reward me. In the future everything is going to be great. I need a house, mortgage, and wife to be happy. Communication is the key to a healthy marriage. Who am I to tell wifey how to spend our money? She made a mistake but with therapy we can work through this.

This was my mantra for almost eight years. Thought that with the picket fence, nice house and two kids I'd be content and be able to live out the rest of my life without any serious conflict and be okay with not ever getting laid or making any decisions. Then one day I woke up and realized I'd completely lost myself.

Fuck going back. Ain't going to happen in this lifetime.

I hate Mondays

Another post for another time, but a huge pet peeve of mine is when someone is bitching about how much they hate Mondays.

Men, if this is you, you need to re-evaluate your life and how you do things. If you find yourself hating Mondays, you are doing it wrong.

The blue pill is like an addiction. Reprogramming all the crap we've been fed as men takes time and and strength of will. You are right Gaylube, the temptation to regress back into nice guy beta mode is an occasional struggle. Luckily, us youngsters have TRP. When it isn't full of 20 year old something shit posts and questions (which should be on asktrp), its normal content is rewarding. Thanks for this, just another reason to hit the gym and strengthen my arsehole.

This is me, I am full awake in a prison cell. I can just get up and leave, there is not lock on the door. I am not sure why I don't, afraid of the outside world, maybe? Engulfed in complete apathy? I could do so much more, and I don't. Somehow I am my own correctional officer waiting for the prison to catch fire and burn down.

Just get to the gym and lift, somehow make $60, and then go fuck a prostitute. Done!

[–]SneezeSpasm 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (2子コメント)

I have been lifting for five years. Genetics are on my side. I'm good looking, 6''4'. Fucking is not a problem, I just don't. I feel like a soldier without a war. Living is too easy. Nothing to die for.

It is some kind of existential crisis that I can't think my way out of, maybe that is my problem, I think too much.

Sometimes I wished I never found TRP, but that phase is over and you will all get over it too. Those times I wished I had never found this becuase I had hope that everything would be ok by sitting on my ass, playing games, not stydying for school, not working out. My one true goal in life was to never get fat.

First I found the book Mystery method, which got me into learning and reading. I read a lot about girls, how they actually worked, that confidence is key, about shit tests and the necessity of being the leader. It got me into the human psychology behind interactions and attraction.

Then I found simple pickup and paid for their service for about a year. They had a bit of a different mentality. It really locked me into the mindset that looks doesn't matter. It's all about game. On the other hand they emphasized good habits, working hard and improving yourself. They where also enjoyable to watch and listen, but they tapped into the blue pill dream to get costumers.

Now I am here. I found something that doesn't want my money. It's all advice. The core here is to make yourself a better man by working hard, expanding your horizon and stepping outside your comfort zone. People have all sorts of reasons to hate TRP: "It's misogynistic, sexist, neckbeard etc...". What people are afraid of is stepping outside their comfort zone, putting in effort to reap rewards instead of watching netflix and chugging soda. They hate it because it clashes with their dream of getting everything they want without having to lift a finger for it.

You might never become the next Arnold, the next DiCaprio, Phelps or Einstein within your field, but don't look back. Comfort breeds losers. Improvement and dedication creates winners. Be a winner.

Lol. Yes. But they still get female & LTR (the point you expose at the beginning with the therapy and stuff being a big problem in relation to the relationship quality thought - extensive communication is almost always BS. Thinking jerk get girls is BS too, it's mainly being jealous.). If you have a hard time is not a reason to intoxicate everyone with the red pill that can be applied mainly to you.

I'm exagerating for sure, there is many good advice here that helped me to kick me in the back (interistingly mainly toward my procrastination toward project. Girls at the end come after that, or as a kind of surprise).

Ive no problem with rejecting some view on masculinity thought.

edit : the blue pill will ALWAYS be reloaded. Hitler had another solution. Please think for yourself and try to ignore it I don't know.... This is your battle, no need to include blue piller in it... Did you see blue piller coming here saying no, this is not like that... Aside myself sometime, but I'm not fully blue pill... Perhaps in the future idk ^
