I don't have anything huge to thank for, like nailing a supermodel or securing a threesome. All I have is so much more confidence and I feel like I finally understand.

Swallowed the pill a few years ago, while in a horrible LTR. Finally manned up and broke up with her, which was followed with a few months of crying(yep... don't even get me started) and horrible regret. It's all good now though.

Picked up Tinder. Made a shitload of matches(but who cares, like 99% are flakes/won't even respond). Met two of my matches so far, and got them both in bed easy. I'm seeing another match in a few days, and just today I matched with a HB8. This latest match I wouldn't even dream about in my BP days. Her height alone would have made me swipe left(she's like 7 cm's taller than me). When she brought up the subject of height, she phrased it like "this could be a problem". I knew exactly where she was going. I played aloof, acted like it doesn't bother me(which it mostly doesn't really), and was ready to next if it came down to it. She says "well, I guess I'll have to keep looking", which I responded with "you do that. happy hunting". That was like 6-7 hours ago and we've still been chatting on facebook since. She's been asking more if her height bothers me and I stand my ground every time. She asked for my number, says she wants to meet up next week and says I kept her up several hours past her usual bedtime.

It's not much, but it's really a lot for me. I can finally see that girls aren't some mythical creature that should be worshiped.

 

I'd still be with my cheating ex if it wasn't for TRP. I can't wait to gather some knowledge on my own, and finally give back to the community. Thanks a bunch, everyone!
