I've been reading trp for about a year and a half now, and I've internalized a lot of the strategies and methods, especially as they relate to game, relationships, etc. I've gotten good at holding frame, I have an abundance mentality, I openly spin plates and they don't complain, I never give into shit tests. I've taken control of the situation.
And I've learned that the more I've come to take control of the situation (regarding girls shit tests), the less I want to. The more it doesn't even seem worth the effort. And frankly, I don't know how most of you put up with it.
I'll give you an example. Right now, the top post on TRP is the post "You need to learn how to deal with me." The most important part of that post was this line:
"well by now you should know how to deal with me, if you don't you need to learn" in that bitchy tone we all know. I looked her dead in the eye and after the silence got her to feel awkward I told her "I am dealing with you... What did you think I was doing when I told you to behave or GTFO?" She just stood there with that shelter puppy face waiting for me to crack, after a couple seconds she said in a low tone "oh..."
Obviously, OP handled this correctly - but he then stayed with the girl. If I were in this situation, I would have been so disgusted by the fact that this girl behaved like a snotty, deplorable child that I wouldn't have wanted to spend the rest of the night with her. I wouldn't have even wanted to touch her or fuck her.
We commonly say AWALT and that there are no unicorns, and obviously this is true but it remains that not all women are created equal. There are varying degrees of self-awareness and emotional maturity/stability in women. And when I see these stupid fucking petty childish shit tests, even once, my interest drops to zero. I can control the situation and put them in their place and correct the behavior. But I don't want to be a dog trainer.
The way I feel, women need to "earn the right" to my patience. A woman who has demonstrated a lot of positive qualities and only occasionally slips up with bullshit, I'll probably be patient with. But the kind of person who makes outrageously snotty comments, I just am not interested. Don't fuck me, I don't care, just get out, you're not worth the trouble.
What I'm finding most recently, additionally, is that I'm not able to find any women who don't do this. Every woman I encounter fails to impress me so much that she's either barely worth the trouble of meeting with, or that I am actively passing up easy sex because I lost respect because of their stupid behavior/comments, and I don't feel good after fucking someone who inspires more contempt than affection.
And PS, I don't live in the US/Europe/a western country. I live in one of those non-western, non-feminist countries that you all (VERY mistakenly) think has higher quality women. I wish I could show you how immensely wrong you all are about women outside of the western world. All the things that you hate about American women, these women do it too. Sometimes even more. The only differences are that they don't call it feminism, they don't have the law to back them up as often, and they know how to cook.

xarkonnen 10y ago
Men shouldn't be a dog trainers. We have to be the dog shelter owners. If dog wants to live in safe, warm and secure environment, have a food, love and care, it should behave and obey to the owner, learn from other good behaving dogs and not bark too much.
Otherwise it is going to be freed back to the streets.
TL:DR: Get money, build a shelter and the fitting dog would suddenly appear itself. Control the environment, not a woman.
HumanSockPuppet 10y ago
This isn't quite right.
Women (and dogs, and children, and subordinates in the military or business, etc) will instinctively misbehave in order to test your boundaries. They accomplish several goals by doing this:
They determine their place in the social hierarchy relative to you.
The more you let them get away with, the stronger they feel, the weaker you appear, and the less safe and secure they feel placing themselves under your authority.
Remember, shit testing of all sorts is a natural instinct, and a useful one which evolved so that people could identify strong leaders. There's no sense in getting mad about it - you may as well get mad about the person's hair colour.
The upside of this is that, when you do establish your authority and dominion decisively, the shit tests will often abate for quite some time. The subject, whether woman, child, or male subordinate, will be satisfied with their decision to obey you, and they will let the matter rest for a time.
You should ask yourself this: why do I get mad when women do this, but not, say, children? Why doesn't it upset me when my niece or little brother does this? Is it because I am giving a woman's words more weight than I should be?
You cannot avoid being a dog trainer. But you can avoid having to give constant niggling lessons by making strong, effective examples the first time.
xarkonnen 10y ago
Yes, you're totally right, I work with children and I know what is primitive shit testing. And I didn't say anywhere that this is something That bad.
Also, I know the other thing, if you're the master of the situation, for example, dodgo master on Martial Arts class, you have to spend way less energy and nerves on any kind of shit testing just by saying "I'm going to expel you if you continue to do this". Works wonders every single time.
Shit testing is natural, still it becomes unnatural when usual shit testing routine becomes the standard strategy for the initiation of emotional interaction of any kind. This usually happens when you have no environment to remind continuously to your subordinate the means of control.

DanG3 10y ago
OP seems to be suggesting a selective mating strategy favoring women who don't shit test?

A mating strategy that excludes "attractive" women seems .... odd, at best.

That's the thing about having a pussy. They get to force men to act a certain way (not how they say they want you to act, but how they really want you to act). If you don't comply, then you don't get pussy. Women own all the pussy, and in that sense, they really do make the rules.
The only alternative options are to MGTOW or become a warlord who commands the women of his tribe to be with him on his terms alone. (A man can dream, right?)
There's a reason why many powerful, rich, successful men opt for prostitutes. I suppose that's the third option.

I guess this is where I disagree with most people here. I don't think that women are biologically incapable of social awareness or emotional maturity, or a sense of personal accountability. I think that when women exhibits a lack of these traits, it is due to a combination of cultural conditioning and poor personal character.

Leaving aside for a moment your straw man attack on "most people here", the source of the defect is hardly relevant... the fact is that such defects are present, pervasive and essentially immutable. Whether the source of the issue is "hardware" or "software" is meaningless to those without means to alter the maladaption. Your disagreement therefore comprises the logical fallacy of "distinction without a difference", and is therefore moot.
I don't know you, of course, and as I am merely another anonymous hairless ape throwing my meaningless computer bits into a virtual digital maelstrom, my opinion may not hold much relevance... that said: I believe you are arguing with yourself in an attempt to distinguish yourself from others here, for some reason. Perhaps it is an attempt to maintain your self image as distinct from some archetype you assign to those in this artificial place; perhaps it is your self-loathing as a man. Perhaps the red pill is stuck in your throat. Honestly, no one else cares, except for those like me who might feel some compassion for your condition. Virtually no one will read this response, or the response to the response: it is essentially just my attempt to encourage you to think deeply about why you feel the need to distinguish yourself to yourself, because, frankly, no one else here will ever give a shit.
Some time spent in introspection often does me good, and I hope that it can do you some good as well.

Another alternative is her training you to be the man she wants. I think TRP really looks down on the third option, however there is such a thing as a man that needs to be dominated to be happy. What type are you?

Back up a little bit from the situation. Then back up a little bit more.
Maybe we can agree that humans aren't "designed" to live in giant megasocieties. Most of our evolutionary history would have been in smallish tribes living a semi-nomadic lifestyle. We're sort of hardwired to think in that way. In a tribe situation there would have been just one alpha male at a time and it would have been clear to the women who that was. The betas would have known their place and if they wanted to make a run at the alpha they would have known how to do it (probably violent). Then it would have been clear who the new alpha was.
The doesn't mean betas weren't having sex but it would have been on the side, so to speak. What you see in society now is a lot of confusion about who the alpha is. Women are seeking out that certainty that they're hardwired to look for in a male. You're feeling a bit stressed because you're not 100% sure you're the alpha because society layers rule upon rule on your behavior that would have never existed for an alpha for most of human evolution.
So when a woman, who is seeking reassurance, tests you it opens up that insecurity you have innately and you just want to get away from her. I'd say it's a perfectly normal reaction. I'd also suggest to you that like it or not we all need to attempt to recognize how our biology formed for millions of years and how inconsistent that is with a modern society that really only formed in maybe the last 1000 years (and really only became fully industrialized in the last 100-150 years).
I'd invite you to consider that the tension you're feeling isn't so much with the women themselves but rather the context in which innate human behavior is expressed in a modern world/economy/state. The next time you see a shit test perhaps see if you can feel compassion for a woman who is just trying to respond to her impulses in a world very different from the one in which her brain stem evolved.

I can't say that there are no women who won't do this... at least to this extent. I've known plenty of women who are a lot more emotionally mature and intelligent than the kind of woman who was quoted there. But I just can't seem to find them lately...
miles37 10y ago
I think more masculine and/or spergy (aspergers) women might be more like that: 'emotionally mature' (which just means less emotional and more logical) and intelligent; maybe you could even try looking for women with physically large heads and see what happens? I think the emotionality and decreased intelligence goes hand in hand with femininity, so the women you will find the most attractive physically will just be like that, and now with TRP you can get those women more easily. I think this is just a case of you needing to accept reality and learn to best work around it in your interest.
Maybe you need more male friends, and you need to care less/put less effort into the women? It seems to me that a lot of the training comes from just not caring a lot about what they think and say etc, and that should also mean they affect you less; maybe you need to go further with this, maybe you're still too much inside your head and micromanaging; maybe you're to some degree still just putting on an act of not caring, and now you need to learn to actually not give a fuck?
Just my thoughts.

The shape of your head has nothing to do with personality, intelligence or any traits.
Slave holders had this pseudo-science based on measuring people's skulls, to prove that nerves are inferior. It's complete nonsense though.
miles37 10y ago
Regarding your first paragraph:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_size#Intelligence
There is not consensus on this yet.
(In the link) Note that the man who found men to score 3.8 points higher on IQ tests based it on IQ tests taken by men and women aged 17-18, and there are theories that women's brains reach maturity at ~18 whilst men's reach maturity at ~28.
There is a difference between raw brain power (what I'm referring to as intelligence) and wisdom. One could have a lot of brain power but not be able to use it effectively, whilst another person could have less brain power but use it effectively.
down_with_whomever 10y ago
This is one of the weirdest comments I've ever seen on TRP. You think women with a brain disorder that causes social dysfunction will be more socially aware.
And I haven't heard someone make reference to craniology/phrenology as a way of judging people since my college history classes. Are you 150 years old?
miles37 10y ago
When did I say socially aware?
You appeared to be complaining that women are emotional and illogical. Women with aspergers are known for being less emotional and more logical, so I think the suggestion makes perfect sense. You could also try post-menopausal women.
Do you not think brain-size is correlated to intelligence?
down_with_whomever 10y ago
Emotional intelligence, behaviors frequently called "maturity," capacity for empathy with others, ability to pick up on nonverbal social cues, general social awareness... these are the umbrella of skills that people on the spectrum of autism lack. Less emotional does not, in any way, mean more emotionally mature. Your suggestion doesn't make any sense.
Brain-size is correlated to intelligence between, species, sure. But you're talking about skull shape and size. Curiously, there is often an inverse relationship here - what were in old times called the "negroid" (black) race frequently has larger skulls and lower IQ's, whereas the "mongoloid" (asian) race frequently has smaller skulls and higher IQ's.
But that was before this entire field of thought was discarded as racist nonsense, that head shape/size is not a meaningful predictor of anything.
Might I suggest spending more time in /r/askscience
throwaway131072 10y ago
I'm just an observer here, but this link: http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/inside-the-mind/human-brain/brain-size2.htm
states that men have a larger brain, and that they average a bit over 3 IQ points higher than women, but puts no further effort into exploring the relationship.
Funny, I've never actually heard about this before, wonder why...
down_with_whomever 10y ago
Interesting. I haven't heard about that before either.
miles37 10y ago
Well, I did clearly include my guess at what you meant by 'emotionally mature' in brackets right after the phrase, which you decided to leave out so that you could make your accusation. The theory which seems most likely to me is that women are more emotional than men precisely so that they can read 'nonverbal cues and have general social awareness': 1) So they can understand the needs of a baby, and 2) Possibly also because a woman who falls out socially would have died in the past, whereas a man could have potentially forged out on his own. It seems to me that for the same reason as she is able to do these things, she is also less logical; you seem to be asking to have a woman who is simultaneously highly emotional and logical, when I think the two are competing traits.
Hmm... So before people were concerned about racial political correctness scientists were getting funded to research this stuff, and then people became concerned about racial political correctness and then scientists stopped getting paid to research this stuff: therefore it is nonsense? That field of research losing funding has nothing to do with it being a dead-end/nonsense; as you say, the reason it lost funding is because people decided it was racist, and that has nothing to do with objectivity: only emotion.
How do you know that brain-size is not correlated to intelligence within a race of humans? From my anecdotal observations there appears to be correlation. Anyway, I suggested it might be something you try and see what happens, I didn't present it as a concrete fact.
Scientific tests can only be performed where a hypothesis has already been produced; might I suggest spending more time in /r/askphilosophy ?
down_with_whomever 10y ago
This is irrelevant. You were trying to make claims about autistic WOMEN having a higher degree of social/emotional awareness than non-autistic WOMEN and the opposite is true.
No. People stopped talking about it because it has no legitimate scientific basis. You're making a lot of assumptions about it. If you don't believe me, you're free to pick up some history books about eugenics/craniology/phrenology and learn about it for yourself.
Because this issue has been studied before and this is what the data concludes. If you can show me some legitimate studies which show otherwise, I'll reconsider my view. I'm not just spouting random emotional viewpoints here, this is actually a topic I've studied.
If you're genuinely interested in this issue, I recommend reading reading this book:
http://www.amazon.com/The-Mismeasure-Man-Revised-Expanded/dp/0393314251
It is among the most interesting books on the history of eugenics that I've read, and explains in great detail the way that the most important eugenic sciences / experiments were conducted back in the time when they were popular.

TJRowe 10y ago
I've been listening to the Beige Phillip show for the last 30 episodes or so and one of the principles he reiterates is that women will test you and give you "shit" to make sure you are the "shit." It is not in the best evolutionary interest of a woman to produce offspring of a man who cannot control his emotions and hold frame, let alone her. That said, I subscribe to Dante's theory in that it is merely a fitness test, much like how we screen women for attractiveness.
down_with_whomever 10y ago
I've heard this evolutionary argument repeated so many countless times on this subreddit and as an explanation for emotional immaturity.

I think OP is pissed that society sets a standard for that other half that is just waaaay lower than what is expected of us. And frankly if that's the case OP and me are on the same page. I find it very easy to be attracted to a hot young thing. But in the current cultural climate, chicks don't have to be a well rounded individual because of pussy pedestaling. I'm saying it's not that women are inherently incapable of being more than physically attractive. They just don't feel the need to. Thoughts?

some12talk2 10y ago
Thanks OP, much appreciated post
Let's say only 1 out of 500 attractive women are worth your time. How much of your life do you have to invest in finding her?
The answer is very little. Body language (such as the entitled stance) and tells will rule out a bunch. Then short conversations will rule out almost all the rest. And by short conversations I mean short, like two minutes. Next as fast as you can.
Can you have 20 short conversations a day? Easy, just banter when about. In less than a month you have fitness tested 500 women.
Now it seems frustrating to have had to reject 499 attractive women, and wasted, in total, many hours on listening to silly, inane, and trivial chatter, but you can multi task (common male trait), that is don't stop whatever else you were doing.
Now this 1 out of 500 attractive woman will still shit test, she will still have drama and emotional meltdowns. But these will be rarer than most, and the vast bulk of the time will be fun.

Shit tests are just their way of testing you, dude. And yes, it takes practise to overcome them. You won't have an answer every time. But if you fail a shit test, it's no bad thing as it teaches you not to give a shit in the first place.
I think it's the female's natural way of redressing the balance.
A girl gets dressed up, wears their low-cut tops and miniskirts at the clubs and most of them look stunning. It's their way of attracting a man. I mean, are you going to talk to the dressed up hottie, or the frump in the cardigan with no makeup who hasn't seen a hairbrush since The Spice Girls happened?
You judge a girl on appearance, if she passes, you go and try your moves.
On the other hand, a girl wants a strong independent man who will take the lead. You stand there and hold that frame while she throws a few rocks at it and see if it moves. In terms of first impressions, it's the only real tool available to them! After all, you don't walk around advertising what you do for a career, you don't impress them with your maths skills, you don't swoop them off their feet with your awesome connections in your industry. Because if all of that is legit, your frame will demonstrate that fully!
Shit tests are no big deal. Which is why you should approach daily and expect to fail!
I get rejected probably half the time, I'm still learning the art of shit deflecting. Does that stop me? Fuck no. Just get better at it. Practice makes perfect!
Last night, I was at a club. I didn't say anything, just grabbed a girl who was with her friends and just started dancing with her. She was laughing the whole time, some sort of nervous automatic response to my confidence. Towards the end of the night, she did ask me back to hers but I have college this morning. I got her number though (and a fresh text this morning).
Some you win, some you lose!
down_with_whomever 10y ago
It's good advice but it doesn't really apply to what I said. As I wrote, I am already able to beat the shit tests, this is old news, it's just that when they behave this way I lose interest in them, especially the type of shit test as in the example I quoted.
I'm not sure how more approaching or more game or more shit test mastery is relevant to this topic.

Insecure girls who don't know what they want "shit test" a lot more than grown, confident women. A confident, real woman doesn't need to shit test because she knows what she's looking for.
EurasianAesthetics 10y ago
I know that feel. I want to date a a highly intelligent concious being, not a homo sapien constantly assessing and analyzing my potential as a resources gathering provider mate. My ex was particularly attractive and her constant reference to herself as a highly prized commodity or assett as her contribution to the relationship was irritating. I had her completely under my thumb but could never quite shake the fact I could read her subtleties a little too well and was dismayed by the simplicity of her biological priorities and ticks.
I'm actually going to start a dark comedy blog that expresses such disdain at this kind of thing. I'm a sociologist and biologist and actually wish I was above this chimp business. Women are simple once you get to know them (as are men) and i'm turning more misanthropist with each and every passing day.

99% of women have little use except sex. Most women are incapable of holding and intelligent conversation. Most men for that matter also.
Women are the same everywhere :-)

Sort of, keep in mind the best spies are always women, great sources of information
Otherwise, indeed, lightening everywhere..they never see it, to into themselves and what they want
sir_wankalot_here 10y ago
But but a spy has to be able to deal with extreme stress and take calculated risks. Women with their small brains could not possibly be spies :-)
I said "most" as opposed to all, as in more then 90% less then 100%.
Padre55 10y ago
Nah, they know 90% or so of men, guys who would cut off their right nut to even get a kiss.
Lower level RP stuff merely changes that and creates attraction, even if it wears a mask of hate..what they do not realize is most men are ghosts or panderers anyway, better to be in that hated percent than the above two categories
sir_wankalot_here 10y ago
IDK, sex by itself no longer cuts it for me. There is nothing more stimulating then talking to an intelligent and pretty woman who actually has read a book, and you do not have to explain stuff to like a 5 year old.
kanaduhisfruityeh 10y ago
I disagree. Some of them can also take care of men (cook, clean, wash). Women will sometimes take better care of men than men take care of themselves. Women tend to be more into the nurturing stuff than men are. Single men often don't take very good care of themselves, which is probably why married men live longer. If a man wants children women can give birth to them and take care of them.
sir_wankalot_here 10y ago
Where OP is, these things are no big deal. I pay my maid what is equivalent to 10 American movie tickets a month. She usually flirts with me, so I probably could fuck her if I put some effort into it. Some guys fuck their maids or nannys, I don't like shitting where I live.
kingoftheheap 10y ago
If you can't shit where you live then where CAN you shit?
kanaduhisfruityeh 10y ago
Theoretically a man could avoid relationships altogether with women, and just use paid services for everything that girlfriends/wives typically provide. He could hire maids to do his cooking and cleaning, prostitutes for sex, surrogate mother(s) to have his child(ren), and nannies to take care of them.
sir_wankalot_here 10y ago
You do have a valid point in your previous comment when you said.
When my wife and I got married, I had fuck all and she didn't have much more then me. It is a mutally supportive relationship. But that is pretty rare.
Statistically speaking odds are I will die before my wife, since I am male and older. But in the unfortunate event my wife dies first I would probably go the route you described. The more finacial assets a man has the harder it is to find a woman who has the same finacial assets. And in that case marriage is illogical.
I like to compartmentalize things. Get a maid to do housework and cooking. Get an LTR prostitute you fuck. That way if you have to fire one of them, at least you have a clean house or are getting laid till you find a replacement.
My wife like me is pretty cynical when it comes to marriage :-) Bargirls/Prostitutes can be extremely nurturing until you marry them. And atleast you know where you stand :-)

imo these shit tests are a way to prove whether or not you're a man worth trusting. The more emotionally insecure/unstable the girl is, the more trust she needs. Once you've proven yourself to be a rock, her femininity can flourish to compliment your masculinity.

An interesting parallel here I think... How many times have you guys felt frustrated because some girl expects you to "just know" what to do, how to treat them whatever?

neurosurg 10y ago
I really strongly identify with the way you feel about pursuing women. I just don't want to do it anymore. I can go out, talk to a girl, bring her home and hook up whenever. But they aren't worth my energy or my patience. I can't stand their snobby, bitchy attitudes, or the fact that 95% can't talk about anything but their iPhone or TV even if they have done well in school and do have a decent IQ. I live in a part of the U.S. that has some of the worst women; many have a lot of education but are still as dumb as shit. They're masculine, have tattoos (some are covered, most have at least 1), and think that because they have a pussy they're the center of the universe yet deserve all the protection of society for being marginalized victims.
It's so frustrating when all I've ever wanted from a woman is to come home to somebody nice, pretty, and agreeable, who actually cares about me and sees me as a human being. Maybe I'm still just fantasizing about being a BB for whatever personal crap I dealt with growing up. I don't even know anymore.
down_with_whomever 10y ago
Took the words right out of my mouth.
But part of the reason this is so frustrating for me is because it's a more recent development. In the past, partly due to geographical reasons, I knew lots of cool, fun, interesting women. So I have seen the good that they can offer. Which makes this situation even more disappointing.
VincentPrice 10y ago

OneThrowawayToGoPlz 10y ago
Time to mgtow it up.
And you're definitely not alone on this. Look up barbarossa/bar bar on youtube. He's got pretty much the same idea on what you've just said.
A tl;dr version of what he often says is that we really, REALLY have to start holding women to a higher standard, and preaching the word if at all possible.
An interesting point he also makes is basically that this will only stay the case as long as women hold monopoly on sexual power, and as soon as the male pill, artificial wombs and even sex dolls become mainstream (guess why this is so opposed and shamed by feminism and women and manginas in general, and likely will be in the future still) and affordably available, only then will women realize they have to clean up their act and become the potential they CAN be, because why would any man even bother anymore at that point?
So yeahh... Not very constructive but at least food for thought...
And aside that: stay strong, preach the word, and have some f-ing standards I guess. It's all we can do at this point to make the following generation at the very least slightly less shitty...
Lt_Muffintoes 10y ago
I'm not sure how TRP feels about Molyneux, but he points out that it is women making shitty choices in mates which basically keep the "arsehole gene" alive. Feminists like to bitch and whinge about how mean men are, when it is women who breed douchebags, and I'm talking douchebags like Obama, or your friendly neighbourhood thug here.
I'd also point out that you can help create a better future by raising your kids, should you have any, properly, ie, peacefully.

rebuildingMyself 10y ago
I can relate to this frustration. My ex and I would have a fight and then she'd try to have "make up" sex within 15 minutes of the fight. I'd push her away because I was honestly not attracted to her at that moment. All I saw was a child.
down_with_whomever 10y ago
I think for women who do this, creating social drama is a form of entertainment. She turned herself on with her destructive bullshit. It doesn't matter to her how it affects you, though.
whatsazipper 10y ago
There's a reason drama surrounds women. They create it because they crave it. The worst thing for them is to be bored and without attention.
Further, some women will not be attracted unless you satisfy pushing their buttons. They need it for arousal. Definitely varies but there are some girls I fuck that basically need to be teased to the point of insult. It's crazy to me but when I tried toning it down the sex disappeared.
For women like this my metric is generally how many "rude!", "you're an asshole!" type remarks I'm met with in retort and any sort of physical 'retaliation' after a remark (e.g. punch to the arm). Those indicate success.
foolery 10y ago
The reason they use social drama as a form of entertainment is because they're party to a cultural frame where they never experience consequences for creating antagonistic social drama. You know what I'm talking about. This creates bullies, and frankly I'm often concerned we're responding to bullies by becoming better bullies, but I think that isn’t the endgame of TRP.

down_with_whomever 10y ago
You're absolutely right. But it's not their beauty which makes them insane - it's the overabundance of attention and validation they receive. I never understood this aspect of TRP or of PUA. They treat the most insufferable women as the high-value prizes.
I'd rather spend a night with a chubby 5/10 girl who is friendly with a sense of humor than a 9.5/10 drama queen bitch. But I feel like I'm the only one who feels this way.
[deleted] 10y ago
So are you saying a girl on okcupid or tinder who gets an overabundance of attention but isn't exactly hot would become the same way?
meekwai 10y ago
That's the PUA paradox. On one hand, there are proclamations about "abundance mentality" and "not putting pussy on a pedestal", while on the other, a typical PUA spends inordinate time in a not-so-enjoyable pursuit of running clown game on women who might be hot but are not worth all that much beyond the bedroom.

I would rather say : I would ONLY spend one night with a drama queen but possibly keep the other for a longer time.
omnipedia 10y ago
You're not the only one, by far.
[deleted] 10y ago
No, I understand that. The problem is that 5/10 chubby girls often have even bigger entitlement problems. If it would be as easy as just picking a 5/10 and not have to deal with shittests, entitlement issues and have an intelligent caring gf, I'd be the first to choose her.
But in my experience lesser looks don't equal less drama.
I dont know about high tier 9 to 10 women, but most of the women I personally like are in the 7 to 8 region.
Granny_Whisperer 10y ago

Red_August 10y ago
I'd say we're simply confronted with a different mix of additive drama. All women provide a basic threshold of drama because of hormones. Drama is AWALT. AWALT is drama. It's unavoidable.
What we're observing is "hormones + x". And x is the additional mental illness which exacerbates the behaviour.
The extra serving of drama by subtype:

"What I'm finding most recently, additionally, is that I'm not able to find any women who don't do this. Every woman I encounter fails to impress me so much that she's either barely worth the trouble of meeting with, or that I am actively passing up easy sex because I lost respect because of their stupid behavior/comments, and I don't feel good after fucking someone who inspires more contempt than affection."
Next step would then to be point out their deficiencies, after sex of course, AWALT and next time you see them guess what the subject of conversation will be?
Or, there is the really over the top strategy of "oh, you think you have problems, then here is X and Y and Z of my life" once the monologue begins..it takes their mind of their problems and puts the hamster on your problems.
Key to making that happen is..you must offer them something their hamster values
down_with_whomever 10y ago
That kind of misses my point, though. I can try to work on their deficiencies. But I don't want to. It's not worth the effort.
Padre55 10y ago
No, the point is, they need to work on their deficiencies, you are placing the burden on YOU to "fix" THEIR issues.
That is not on you, not your job, nope, never signed anything.
They liked you enough to fuck you, if they want to stick around, and perhaps be something in YOUR life..they have to handle their own problems

down_with_whomever 10y ago
But you and I both know they aren't going to do that. At least not in something casual.
Padre55 10y ago
EXACTLY! If they will not handle it in the run up to a long term thing, then they never will handle it
So be patient, it does not sound as if one is a bitter or unattractive fellow, rather what you are seeing is not what is what you have been told you would see.
Dirty lil secret is, women like pleasure more then men do, something you were not likely told either. IE the infamous cock carousel
I think perhaps you are into a one girl who is acting the fool
down_with_whomever 10y ago
It's not one girl. I haven't done relationships in years. It's all the women I'm encountering, whether for friendships or plates or casual whatever it is.
I'm not into one girl because I can't get into any of them.
I wouldn't say I'm bitter or unattractive, bitter isn't the right word but I have definitely become very impatient about this kind of thing. Which is a big contrast from how I used to be.
Padre55 10y ago
Careful, you are searching for a unicorn
First question you should ask yourself is..what do you like in a woman?
there are hundreds of women on any given day, the real question would be, what do you personally admire and find attractive in a woman?
FWIW, am quite aware of the idea of a submissive passive woman is a bit of a cliche', what imo westerners are experiencing is being an exotic commodity, you have to deal with the women daily and they have two faces

Good test for one stands in all of this is when a guy who has women all over them, seeking them out, and "you" have women crawling all over you and seeking you out and it is not a big thing, then you know...same level, different game
Thing is, Alphas tend to pull from their social circles, Sigmas tend to have ppl talking to them they barely now, or do not know at all

Wait, let me get this straight -- you don't want to babysit your fleshlight? What are you, some kind of shitlord?
Find what it is you actually want to do with that knowledge and if it doesn't include smashing on the regular you just keep in your back pocket so you know how to not get got.
The world is filled with misguided strategies and backwards methods for accomplishing things. Not just interactions with women, this is just overall a good foundation for a life lived effectively. Take what's useful and move on, like a good movie talk about it some then continue on wondering what's next.
Just take comfort in the fact that for the rest of your life you will never have to worry about whether or not a bitch will be just that to you -- you will know before they do. You will never lose half your shit to a harridan. You will never have a random kid go up to you and say "daddy!" and mean it. So many pitfalls that ruin great men you get to walk right the fuck past. Yeah dog training sucks, but you sure know when the fuck ones going to bite now and that's a useful skill to have. Just cherish it and move forward.

Try to view it less them being immature and snotty. While it can be perceived as that, that line of thinking is futile and will get you no where, so why waste your time with it?

_penseroso_ 10y ago
I upvoted this comment. I've recently swallowed the red pill and read the recommended readings. The anger I see in some of the comments is missing the point entirely... Women aren't doing these things to be assholes, they do it because they are biologically programmed to seek out the best, strongest mate. And shit tests are a part of that. It sucks, and is kind of sad, but we shouldn't be angry about reality. I had a lot of trouble accepting the red pill too... I walked around in a daze as my brain rejected old blue pill thinking. But I couldn't deny the obviousness of it, and it didn't take long before I was employing the strategies in the field. And yes, they work.
Anyway the point is, now that we know what they are, we should be taking shit tests as a normal part of sexual dynamics. Not being angry about them.

My problem is not with women testing the men they are with, it is with how childish and disrespectful the tests are. They are testing for such useless qualities such as being able to correct an adult that acts like a child.
I would have respect for a woman that tested my honor or integrity, or being able to keep to my word but acting like a spoiled brat or saying something in a disrespectful tone. Naaaa. Depending on what I have seen of you , if you are not worth the trouble you get demoted from potential partner to an object of utility.
BoTuLoX 10y ago
I've got a solution that's worked for me: Lower your physical standards. I know in the US and EU there are a lot of entitled low-value woman, but you're more likely to find one that knows she can't be a bitch and get what she wants because more men won't find it worth it to deal with her shit.
Who knows, I was lucky enough to find someone who is a sort of unicorn while doing this, maybe you can get soumething where you're not looking.

A lot depends on where you go to meet women. Obviously a club or bar scene is going to have skankier, less wholesome women. You have to put yourself in environments where quality females are plentiful.
I did a lot of typically non-male stuff while single and I was amazed at the quality of women that I was around, and the ratios were great for talking and meeting. Painting, ballroom dancing, and yoga are some of the best places to meet women I can think of. Most of the women are normal aren't doing these activities to try and sink a man, they are just living their life. Way less issues than looking online or picking one up at a bar.
jmg83 10y ago
A few women I know use this quote on their social media; "I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

It becomes easy, once you understand that they can't help it it's like us staring at a gorgeus woman, they feel the need to push against a strong frame. It's quite cute sometimes and as long as it doesn't even come close to disrespectfull like in the case of the "deal with me guy" I have no complaints.
Your interest is based on a standard that has nothing to do with real life. The shit test only change with maturity and self-awareness, they don't go away. I live in eastern europe, compared to british women ours are way better, they are right, however ours for the most part have long term game, that means that the shit tests are more subtle and less obvious, this also makes it so you don't always have the option to dismis or ignore them. Also, as a foreigner you get at least 2 points for not being a national and another 2 for having a discretionary budget, so they punch way above their SMV. So they get a better deal all around compared to what they can get at home: low resistance up front and better value for the effort.
csmass 10y ago
This is where I disagree. They can help it, but they choose not too. We all think women are helpless, stupid little instinctual-based creatures. They aren't. You give them more power when you look at them in this light. They know damn well what they are doing.
OP, I agree. The best way to deal with a shit test is to throw the women to the curb.
asd1100 10y ago
No they don't, at best they feel that it's irrational and they rationalise it into some kinda of cosmo style test.
I didn't say they are helpless . Are you helpless for staring at a gorgeus ass? No, your eyes just jump there, once you are repremanded you will be aware that it's rude but your first reaction would still be to stare.
It's not about giving power, they have it, that is a fact of life, understanding that they are only playing their side of the game is crucial for understanding how to win. They are not malicious, they are just as captive to their human nature as we are to ours. Upon that you build your game, not underestimating their agency and not overestimating their self awareness.
