What's up, my brothers from another mothers,
I just came back from a trip in a small country in Europe, I was hiking, making friends with other people from different countries during the trip, I was completely disintegrated from social media, I didn't fuck any chicks though, since my purpose was not fucking around, I just wanted to have some hiking experience, I didn't want to think about women.
So today I just came back, I took a taxi from the airport, the driver was a young guy, I think he was 22 or 23 years old, it was a long ride from the airport to the center of the city. First, we exchanged some small talks, the driver seemed like a nice guy, I asked him about his work, hobbies, and some trivial stuff. Suddenly, I wanted to ask him about his relationships, I knew this was irrelevant but the ride was long and I just wanted to be social a little bit, I asked the driver was he married or not, and he told me that his girlfriend just broke up with him, it seemed that I asked the right question and the next 15 minutes he was telling me everything about his ex.
The driver and his girlfriend were together for 5 years, and they just broke up 2 months ago, he told me that he didn't even understand why his ex wanted to break up with him, he loved the girl so much, they lived together, their parents knew each other, the driver wanted to propose to his ex but unfortunately the girl did break up with him, and the reason was she said that she didn't love him or feel anything for him anymore. During the talk, I could feel the agony on his face, I felt sympathy for him, he couldn't even sit still, and I was afraid a bit, for my safety, obviously.
The girl blocked him all on social networks, dude didn't even know why she did that. Two weeks ago, the driver met his ex on the street, they said hi to each other, he asked his ex for a walk and to talk as friends, but his ex refused and she said that she was going to marry another guy, at this point, I could feel the driver's pain on his eyes.
I didn't even ask what type of guy she was going to marry, though.
The driver told me that he's going out with different chicks these days, having fun with them but he still misses his ex, I asked him did he still love his ex and he said that he misses her every single day.
Finally, we reached our place, the driver helped me take out my suitcase, and I just realized that he was skinny as fuck, average looking, working low-paid job.
The driver left, and I thought that I wouldn't let myself get fucked up like that guy.
A new day, time to go back to work, make money, hit the weights, keep being awesome, and remember that AWALT.

An all to common trend among low-income jobs. Men get caught in the trap of continued mediocrity to feed mouths that are barely satisfied and even more rarely appreciative.
Keep doing your thing bro, hope the holiday was great!

I recently my decent-paying personal training job and took a manual labor job so I could start building my own personal training business.
I have a suspicion that’s why my LTR left me, she didn’t want to date a landscaper and wait for me to build my empire.
It’s harsh but that’s how it goes.
NorthEasternNomad 5y ago
Feeling you.
Returning to college to finish my bachelors in IT. Put it off because my current job was "good enough" and I didn't want to lose time from my girl.
But given her increased disinterest in anything other than her mobile devices, its time to get back to me. I'm late doing it in my mid thirties, but better now, than not at all. With fifteen years IT experience, the degree and the certs from my degree program classes, I should really be in good shape and ready for something better - both careerwise, and, if she doesn't wake up, in my personal life as well.
This is what I get, for those years of letting her think she "got me." Always keep them chasing, or they lose interest.

Maslow calling.
You need to sort out your basic needs before you can even think of ascending to the next levels.
Meaning if you find it challenging to feed and shelter yourself, self actualization is not even a speck on the horizon.
Kobinks 5y ago
Maslow’s hierachy is an interesting read and for the most part I can see his logic.
That being said I’ve got to disagree with it slightly.
In an ideal world if our needs of;
Are all satisfied then perhaps that may prevent a strong foundation for an individual to achieve self actualisation.
In reality however I believe this leads to people becoming too comfortable and not actually reaching their full potential.
It’s the struggle and the need for change that motivates men to push themselves and reach new heights.
So barring the most basic of physiological needs I think the other 3 can both help or hinder the individual on their path to self actualisation.
As the old saying goes...
Strong men create good times, Good times create weak men, Weak men create hard times, Hard times create strong men.
Not disagreeing with you at all, just my observations on Maslow.
strikethrough123 5y ago
Maslow's is accurate to the fucking LETTER. It's difficult focusing on the shit that's way up there when your basic needs (water, food, shelter, sex) are barely being met. I've found it way easier to focus on my mission when everything below it is being met.
FeralRed 5y ago
Some of Maslows biggest criticisms lie in the fact his population was members of high socioeconomic and intellectual standing (as in the top 1% only), he believed studying crippled specimens led to crippled results. This is the variable you mention above - driven people tend to remain driven, but there will always be those who only reach for what is in their grasp.
Also differences between collectivist vs individualistic cultures, age differences, etc have led many to believe there is only the loosest of hierarchies if at all.
Still a good pyramid concept, though, despite the flaws.

I'm generally not a grammar nazi, but this post bothered me.
Your sentences are hard to read. You use far more comma's then are necessary, and do not use periods and question marks nearly enough.
Take this excerpt:
"What's up, my brothers from another mothers,
I just came back from a trip in a small country in Europe, I was hiking, making friends with other people from different countries during the trip, I was completely disintegrated from social media, I didn't fuck any chicks though, since my purpose was not fucking around, I just wanted to have some hiking experience, I didn't want to think about women."
Proper grammar for this segment would look like this, corrections in bold:
What's up, my brothers from
another mothers?I just came back from a trip
into a small country in Europe. Iwaswent hiking andmakingmade friends with other people from different countries during the trip. I was completely disintegrated from social media. I didn't fuck any chicksthough,since my purpose was not fucking around, I didn't want to think about women. I just wanted to have some hiking experience.The next time you post here, consider using the Hemingway Editor, it'll help you catch overly complex sentences and make your posts more legible.

Any time I see someone with good grammar like you, but unable to distinguish between then and than, I assume you’re Pook and forgive you.

S-Blaze 5y ago
You should feel bad to make the desired changes.
watusaym8 5y ago
True, but OP was talking about it as if being average-looking and working a "low paid" job were bad things. It's the reality for most of us. And many are off even worse, just look at youth unemployment rates, and the average nerd.

This is what happens when you have a chick but fail to continually self improve and be her alpha.
I was in the same situation with an ex. Fuck she dumped me like 7 years ago and I still miss her cause she was the best chick I ever had in my life. She had her issues but we got along great had similar interests, she was feminine and cooked and was a total babe with a nice body.
I realized I was just some 22 yo guy living with his mom, semi depressed cause my moms a lunatic alcoholic working a dead end job with no goals or ways to support her and be her alpha. Fuck I was lucky she even gave me the time of day let alone committed to dating me. Not putting the pussy on a pedestal here, just being honest with how low quality/average of a dude I was.
Looking back, it’s motivation. Motivation to lift, stay educated, and work like a mad man at my career and advancing within my limits. You gotta keep your woman happy and proud or she’s gonna start thinking the grass is greener without you. I mean obviously there’s manipulative cunts and every bad apple under the sun, but a quality woman doesn’t settle for an average loser. Same way a quality man doesn’t settle for some chubby thot who burns spaghetti.

bobaisdope 5y ago
That’s why the beta bucks sometimes get the hot girls despite their “betaness”, since these guys are usually nerds and only know how to score on their professional fields, but lack of games.
187oddfuture 5y ago
They don’t “get the girls”. They’re Beta buxes. The girl puts out enough so that he’s none the wiser and then keeps a sharp eye out for chad. All those insta models who supposedly are in LTRs with those soyboys they post a picture with 1/100 posts are NOT loyal to them. Don’t get it twisted. Beta loses no matter how much money he has.
FOODYUMONION 5y ago
Exactly why do you think Hollywood and elites is full of disgusting beta pedos and rapists. They still can't attract or keep a hot chick
25toten 5y ago
I can definitely confirm this with a well made for himself friend of mine, while he has a more beta-ish mindset, he's incredibly intelligent and makes good money. A pretty girl he dated awhile back jumped ship to some more alpha looking guy who had way less going for him. I'm not sure he she was cheating on him at any point, but my suspicion led me to believe so - based on his stories.
187oddfuture 5y ago
Generally when chicks just up and leave guys they’ve already got another dude lined up. Branch swinging virtually guarantees that she was fucking the new guy before she jumped ship.
poohead3 5y ago
The monkey only lets go of the current branch once he has the new one firmly grasped in his other hand.
ddiogenesofsinope 5y ago
She was fucking him before she even dumped the taxi driver. Thats why she got the new guy so quick, and why she blocked him.
CryptoNShit 5y ago
Makes the most amount of sense, girl is a cheater no doubt, also no sympathy.
redpillbanana 5y ago
She did it to spare him from seeing all the photos with the new guy. She probably upgraded to a wealthier man and she's most likely uploading photos of all the nice restaurants and trips that he is sponsoring.
Notice how suddenly this happened. As soon as she met another guy, the feeling faucet was completely shut off for him.
As I've written before: Rollo gave a great reason as to why women are the ultimate team-swtichers - why they fall out of love quickly compared to men:

What are the chances that the new guy is just as blue-pilled as the driver and probably getting milked for beta bucks
[deleted] 5y ago
Odds are good, majority of Western men are so blue pilled they’re practically smurfs.
Aesthetic_God__ 5y ago
My ex and I broke up two years ago. Now she's with a wealthier guy posting the photos you're saying, but, let's mention she came back to me in a moment when she broke up with him and we had sex( I know stupid me, let that happen ) then next day she says she's not that type of girl and doesn't usually do that. By that time I had swallowed the red pill harder than ever I think, and I ghosted once and for all, something I should have done a long time ago. Thank you red pill.

Her need for a provider. AWALT. ASD.
Pretty much exemplifies some of the most basic concepts of TRP.
Erne5t_0319 5y ago
basically we all men need to dream big and pursue the dream goals that once you have set, if not you will be next the taxi driver or a ordinary guy with low-income just barely feeding yourself or maybe same things happen girl breakup get a better guy
InsulinDaddy 5y ago
I really feel for the working class guys, gynocentrism and hypergamy is fucking them up harder than ever and feminists blame them for all their perceived "problems"
Aesthetic_God__ 5y ago
I used to be gynocentric and got caught in the crosshair of hypergamy too, two years ago and more than that when I realized it I also got accused of being a sexist by an ex. I really feel for them too, but for one if I talk to a guy and feel he's worth it and is capable, I give them some advice. Most of them agree and start rebuilding their lives with the intention of improving themselves, others are still stuck in a situation where their girlfriends take advantage of them and don't even agree.

Man what an inspiration! Really shocked about this guy and im glateful that i found Redpill! Thanks for all guys

I dont know man to me it looks like your blue pilled just as much as the taxi driver...
'' Finally, we reached our place, the driver helped me take out my suitcase, and I just realized that he was skinny as fuck, average looking, working low-paid job. ''
This sentence shows you really didnt get the red pill, you really think that being muscular and rich will find you a NAWALT which will love you all your life till you die...
Let me tell you that no matter how jacked beautiful and rich you are she will still blow the smelly immigrant Muhammad dick down the road...She might hide it so she can keep you for your money AKA betabux but dont you think for a second she wont desire other man even if your a good looking one...
eaazzy_13 5y ago
When did he say that being muscular and rich would land you a NAWALT?
