I honestly don't know where to begin and I have so many questions to ask. It sounds ridiculous but I feel like I'm in shock. TRP has been something that has always ran through my head even before finding out this subreddit exist. I'm now finding it difficult to reconcile the reality I've been conditioned to believe and the reality that actually is. I feel like a mad man but I'm sure someone here can relate.
Like the title says I'm 26 years old and recently married. My views on marriage slightly differ with some TRP philosophies on marriage, only because I truly believe that the techniques and strategies learned through a TRP mindset can help you maximize your happiness no matter what your relationship status is. I'm going to stop writing now and add more later.
I feel like my eyes have finally been opened, it's simultaneously amazing and truly terrifying.
Edit 1: holy shit this works. I'm all in. Just had an "argument" with the wife and I suppressed every once of beta bitch shit I've accumulated over the course of our relationship and went full alpha. you could tell she was completely caught off guard and didn't know how to react when I didn't fold whenever I usually would. I told her that we need space for the afternoon and we'd talk later. I now have the afternoon to do whatever I want (including but not limited to: not dealing with her bullshit). I love her, I truly do, only now I want to show her what it means to be loved by a man.

Then they don't differ. TRP says "don't get married, spin plates" because it's the simplest form of a very practical advice. Getting married exposes you to the risk of a divorce and its financial fallout, while spinning plates is the fastest way to gain abundance mentality and thus improve your game.
However, TRP is not a prescription for a lifestyle, but a mindset. That mindset is "Be a Man", which mechanically means live your life in a way that you can derive male pride from your actions, which in turn will boost your confidence and further facilitate the activities that make up your lifestyle. That man can be a player, but he can also be a husband and father.
If you think, TRP is just about spinning plates, you need to read more material. The tried and true advice, once again, is to read the sidebar, and lurk. Your curiosity will lead you to the answers you seek.

The married guys have to dig deep in TRP to find usable advice. It's all here though.

Good news for you: They'll tell you how to keep a happy marriage. They'll also tell you when to cut and run, but really they'll tell you how to keep a happy marriage. It's often not easy.

I agree, for the record I have been "lurking" for over a month and only recently made an account to contribute now that I'm going to start with implementing TRP into my life

"Don't get married" is just advice similar to "don't ride a motorcycle." TRP just acknowledges that marriage is more likely to ruin your life than most extreme sports. It is something that is statistically just a bad idea due to risk - but if it makes you happy, do what you can to mitigate the risks and make it work (and be ready to pick up the pieces when it doesn't).

It's like I've found the subreddit for pragmatists
