this is good, i like your way of doing things

Another rule I laid down, we don't split anything. If we're buying a new couch, I pay for it. If we need to buy a new table, you pay for it. It doesn't have to be equal but I will never split. She agreed that my rules were fair.

What is the reasoning behind this rule?

You sound emotionally independent, which is the goal of being an alpha, so congratulations mate

Be certain to maintain your personal space -- don't stop hitting the gym, don't stop meeting up with your friends regularly.

The worst failures a man makes in LTRs is to forget he has space and just give his LTR access to it. That space is what keeps her on her toes.

A woman gets fat when she knows her man has no space to look at other women and compare. If a man keeps his space, the likelihood of him letting her get fat is reduced greatly.

This will seem like an odd question, but how big is your dick?

I ask because my current lay count is 2, and for you to jump from taht to 15, you must have a lot of self confidence in regards to your size.

I'm only 5.5 inches, and it holds me back in terms of game.

It's nice to finally see a post that promotes a healthy TRP LTR. Got so tired of the "DON'T LTR, IT IS THE ABYSS THAT CONSUMES ALL LIFE. TASTE IT AND KNOW TRUE DESPAIR," rhetoric. It's just a matter of applying the knowledge and frame that is TRP. Best of luck my friend. God speed.

Sex was every single day.

Am I one of the few guys in here that get easily bored by having sex with the same woman several times in a row? This is the main reason I can't see myself ever getting married (and staying faithful). I crave something different, even if it means rotating through the same 3-4 girls. Naturally, I haven't had that type of rotation for any extended period of time because plates tend to drop left and right.

B.S. in Behavior Analysis - that sounds like an absolutely fascinating field.

Can you tell me some more about it? The topics you cover, what level of math it involves and what types (since it is a B.S. I assume it involves it), and how the job outlook is and what sort of work it leads to.

Can you share what you mean by shit vs comfort test?

Many have mentioned the chance of a child and you did reply with, "no bio, maybe adopt". I was wondering where your SO stands on this, as a difference on this view can often spell disaster, in many different ways.

Don't get complacent. She will eventually want to settle down and have kids or some shit. It'll start with the small things and then suddenly you'll find yourself with two kids and a ring on your finger. If that's what you want then cool, but just a warning!

This isn't unusual behavior for the start of an LTR. As we all know, her desire and devotion will fade over time if you let it.

If you haven't been together long, you don't even have to try in order to get this kind of behavior. Beta, pre-TRP me was able to get this sort of devotion from my ex for about 3 years.

You know your challenge will be to maintain this level of attraction and affection for a lifetime (if that's what you want). Frankly, it's a daunting proposition. Best of luck.

I pesonnally am against LTR but if it's your thing go on. I can't and won't criticize your decision.

The only thing : please, do not take her shit and walk away if the situation makes you miserable.

And don't forget : you are exclusive so you 'can't' cheat but by all means keep flirting with other girls.

I saw a lot of my former self in the beginning of your post. Thank you for sharing!

You've armed yourself with TRP.

You're a behavioral analysts?? Do you play poker? How do you detect a bluff?

Good for you man. I myself just got into an LTR a couple months back and by implementing TRP it's been the best relationship of my life. I don't take shit, I get sex whenever I want it, she treats me like a king, and thanks me for being such an amazing boyfriend. She even said to me last night, "How come no one has snatched you up yet?"

TRP is more than just banging girl after girl. This isn't PUA shit, this is real life, find your balls, and act like a man shit. I like to believe we are slowly bringing masculinity back into the world and more specifically into relationships.

And I think the women of the world couldn't be happier.

Can you please elaborate on what a comfort test is and how do respond to it?

What are some of the rules you have in a relationship besides some of the ones you posted?

op is a troll... unicorn bullshit

Really enjoyed reading this post. Although as of right now, I have no desire to get in a LTR anytime soon, it's good to see you have a strong Red Pill mentality. Once you have the "I can and will walk away if I have to" mentality, you can control every relationship and situation if life. Good post, good luck and don't become complacent

Congrats! This is the way things are supposed to work.. Until you get to this point anyway:

I am definitely not getting married anytime soon. I always tell my peers, "I'll be in my prime till 55" and they don't believe me.

I'm definitely more of a traditionalist, some might say to an extreme, but it always makes me said to see intelligent people like you giving zero fucks about having children / passing on their genes. It's how we end up with such a dumb, dysgenic society... with only the stupidest breeding.

You have to realize that "good" women don't really have any purpose other than having kids. They can either be slutty hedonists (most nowadays,) career women (which necessitates acting like men at higher levels, even middle management, unfulfilling for them,) or mothers.

The path you're on right now is what people have done for millions of years before having a large, happy family. I'm not saying that everything would come up roses, but I am saying that a woman with a traditional purpose is much happier than one without.

That's why nearly every woman in her 40's and 50's today is such a raging cunt... they are supposed to be raising grandchildren, that's what they are built for. Not sitting around watching MSNBC all day. For men, there is nothing like the fulfillment that comes from having kids. Well, until the divorce rape anyway.

Like I said, it's a gamble in a modern society, but nothing ventured nothing gained. I do think you'll start to get every bit as bored with your current relationship (without kids) and you did with spinning plates after a couple years. Child-free relationships (to me) are just an intellectual dead end / circlejerk.

I didn't read any of this. Why the hell get into a LTR? After Lifting is "Don't get married". LTR is a dumb choice. You WILL backslide and for fuck's sake, might get married. Just keep up the plates, maybe have a "special" one, but don't get into a LTR. You can still create memories with people without getting into a long relationship with them.

Great read man! I'm going to have to apply some of these things to my LTR. How do you deal with bills and rent?

Keep it up, and if you pop out little shits, remember to train them correctly as well.

Another rule. If one of us is home first, they have to meet the other at the door when the other comes home. I know all too well of walking in after a long day and being completely ignored by your significant other. Luckily for me, I always get home second. She is at the door every single time with a kiss and a hug. Asking me how my day is. It is really a great feeling. The one time she didn't, I completely ignored her until she ran up and hugged me and said "sorry".

This echoes what I experienced, rather should have been the rule, in my last marriage. Every single time I'd come home, the ex would be on her laptop or something else, but never greeted me. On the flip side, I'd welcome her home. That dynamic always agitated me and I thought I was possibly in the wrong until I asked a therapist about it and he told me in simple terms that humans, in general, are pack animals and love to be greeted back into the pack.

Another 6 months down the road, we had gone on a few dates, made out, and every single time I tried to seal the deal, I was met with a "sorry, I have a no bullshit policy. I do not fuck unless I am in a relationship". This chick was firm on her stance.

Time and time again I have seen men on this sub stating that if she doesn't put out in two or three dates, next her.

I think that's a bunch of fucking bullshit. We sit here and bitch about how difficult it is to find a good girl who isn't a dirty little cheating whore, then on the same hand we advise nexting those who don't put out like dirty little cheating whores. There are decent women out there. No, they aren't unicorns and AWALT still applies, but if a girl won't put out right away, that may be a sign she's LTR material. It could also be a sign she isn't into you and/or just wants another orbiter, and there are certainly a lot of other things you'll want to know about her before you take the LTR plunge, but not hopping into bed straight up with a guy she just met is a good thing for those of us trying to avoid STDs via serial monogamy.

I tried to fuck my current LTR straight up and she wasn't having it. Pissed her off, in fact, that I would try to fuck on the first date. She sent me a long email after the date about how she hadn't had sex in over 2 years since her last relationship ended, that she wasn't that kind of girl and that she was sorry, but she didn't want a player and there wasn't going to be a second date. I said "okay" and from then on, kept things completely platonic with her (we had mutual friends and saw each other frequently). Several weeks later, she pulled me aside and kissed me, said she really liked me but just wanted to take it slow. I said okay, we dated for awhile, made out a few times, eventually started fucking and the rest is history. The best part? All the bareback pussy I want and no STDs (no kids, either, I'm snipped) nor any real worries about her cheating. She's a hottie and gets a lot of attention, but she shies away from it instead of basking in it. I like that.

I think the rules you have set in your relationship are outstanding. I don't live with my LTR, but we've discussed it and I have a similar set of rules. The house is mine, will always be mine and I will never accept a dime from her toward it - so she'd live for free. I have to make the house payment whether she lives there or not, so it's not like it costs me anything extra to have her there (save for slightly higher utility bills, big fucking deal) and I don't want any confusion over who owns this home. Same thing with stuff, no 50/50, either she buys it (and it's hers) or I do (and it's mine). The point is there needs to be a clear exit plan. If things go south, she takes her stuff, I keep mine and we part ways without arguing over who paid for what, who is entitled to this or that and so on. That's the only way to do it if you ask me.

Just be careful not to give in to comfort and start sharing your feelings. That will change your relationship dynamics in a flash.

I was a beta that married a terrible person. 9 years of hell before divorce. After divorce, went full alpha, spinning 3 to 4 at a time. I had no qualms with getting two at a time whenever I wanted. But one night at the bar I managed, this amazing woman walked in. Moves in with her within 6 months. Started to become beta again because I just wanted to please her. Shared my feelings with her. We got married. 8 years later I discovered TRP and realised how beta I became.

Been on the pill for about a year now. She likes the changes and sex has gotten better and better. She accidently discovered my Super Secret Mens Club, when her phone died, and she used mine to Reddit. She told me that she agrees with much of TRP, and likes that I am into it.

She is trying to grow that unicorn horn. I will let her try, I like it.

I feel like this is one of the most mature posts I've seen around here. Even the comments appear mature and interesting. This thread by itself might be a unicorn.

I must say you setting such precise rules make you feel (at least through your writing) very Alpha in my eyes.

I hope you can maintain your status brother.

Cheers.

Solid FR, here is a man doing RP-LTR right!

It doesn't make sense for many young men <25 to be in a LTR much less marriage, but I strongly recommend that all learn LTR and marriage skills along the way. If not for yourself someday, certainly for your friends who get married and will seek your counsel as a RP man.

I would say the most powerful tool in my arsenal is my ability to walk away.

Yes, and what does getting married do to that little tool of yours?

Soaring through the first year as captain of the ship is easy.

Update us around year 10.

Compared to most however, you'll have a much better chance of having a positive story to tell a decade down the line — unlike the poor saps who never educate themselves — so I wish you continued success.

Girl: I don't fuck unless I'm in a relationship.

You: Funny, I don't get in a relationship unless we're fucking.

Can you elaborate on the difference between the shit tests and comfort tests?

Could you reiterate on the rules you have and why? perhaps suggest other ones, and maybe how you came about getting her toa bide by them.

So you hang out with a chick a couple times over the course of six months, she doesn't put out and demands you dump your plates and commit to her if you want sex, so you do and then you move in together within a month? This is the exact opposite of TRP.

This is good to hear.

Yes, if you can hold frame and she looks up to you then things will continue to be good.

Comfort Tests means she sees the relationship as about 80% / 20% with you the Captain and her the Firstmate. Your optimal setpoint is 60% / 40% so you have a little room to wiggle which is good.

I'd say keep doing what you are doing.

There's nothing that sounds Beta to me... you are the man.
