Red Pill TheoryThink HORIZONTALLY, not VERTICALLY (self.TheRedPill)

submitted by Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev

Uncle Vasya here with your Thursday reminder: Think HORIZONTALLY, not VERTICALLY.

This is especially true for n00bs, recovering ‘Nice Guys’, and guys exiting Monk Mode.

You should be doing multiple approaches and engaging multiple women (i.e. thinking 'horizontally'). If a girl is into you, great. If she’s not responsive after a reasonable amount of time or interaction, then move on. Any further investment is wasted. It gets you nowhere and can create a sense of “entitlement” that we sometimes see among ‘Nice Guys’ who keep investing and investing and investing in the same girl (i.e., thinking 'vertically') who “likes him as a friend”, but nothing more. Eventually, he will 'win' the right to become her 'Orbiter-in-Chief', which makes him the Mayor of her "Friend Zone". If you start getting that from girls then withdraw your attention, and move on.

The problem we see with ‘Nice Guys’ is they build up some bluepill rom-com fantasy in their heads and think that if they Just Stick Around Long Enough, and Put The Work In, eventually, the objects of their LURRRVE will each give him that 10th Stamp on his ‘Nice Guy’ card and then, according to the Rules of the Hottie Union, she will finally be able to give him All The Sex He Deserves!

Life doesn’t work that way.1 Whilst the ‘Nice Guy’ is busy with his ‘Boyfriend Audition’, the chick is off fucking some Outlaw Biker or Escaped Mental Patient. The difference is that those dudes made their intentions clear. If you’re waiting for her to ‘realize’ that the two of you are ‘perfect together’, forget it.

Fun Fact: Faint Heart Never Fucked Fair Lady

If you’re not getting “buy” signals or IOI’s or whatever, and those do not lead to you closing the deal, i.e., PiV, then it’s time to bail. And it doesn’t matter “why”. If she gives you LJBF, you already have enough friends. She is really saying she wants you to orbit her, validate her, pay her way, and NOT have sex with her. Maybe she’s involved with another dude. Fine, there are lots of women who aren’t. Maybe she wants to ride the Cock Carousel for the next 10 years until the journey ends and the announcer bellows, “Wall Station! Everybody off!” Hey, if she wants to train to be an emotionally broken, future Cat Colonist, that’s not your problem. Mosey on down the road.

Bottom Line: A woman doesn't "owe you" her body, but you don't "owe her" your time, attention or resources. If you're not getting what you want it's time to bail.

Now go forth and slay.

1 Well, it does, sometimes…15-20 years later. Once the chick has racked up a heavy N-count on the CC and needs a dad for her 4 kids by 3 different fathers, and her SMV has hit the WallSPLAT! head-on. But I digress. And you don’t want that shit, anyway.

Guys we all need to raise our awareness of drama and how to steer clear of it without letting our egos get us involved. If you didnt think with your dick, youd recognize drama on the horizon and make a full detour, but since the vagina is attached to the drama, we tend to gravitate toward both. You'd pass all the shittests if you didnt give a fuck! Adopt a "me first" mentality, something that many guys have been brought up to believe is part of the douche bag mentality. But no it's not, and youre not disrespecting women or being a selfish, narcissistic mysoginist. Youre not gay if you dont want to sleep with her, but she'll call you all sorts of names and put you down because youre not giving her what she wants. Still, steer clear. When in doubt, ghost and take as much time as you need to figure stuff out. It's ok to put yourself first, to be singleminded about something if it'll potentially lead to success or create for you a better life, to let people go because they drain your energy and resources, to not give women a free pass. They need to earn your respect and your trust just like you need to earn theirs. Throw out your own shittests. Dont overinvest yourself or show your full hand, ever. Be steady. Be consistent. If youve got nothing to work toward, work toward consistency in good habits. It's easy to slip and lose frame, lose confidence, lose a mentality you build yourself up for. Invest in that. Longterm. Invest in you.

I have a "Plate Emeritus" who I used to have a lot of fun with. She was super smart, as in "med school" smart, but really damaged. She was bi, and always down for some girl-girl-Vasya action, which meant I kept her around longer than I should have. And she could be fun to be with. She was my N.Y. Eve date two years ago, and we had a great time.

The problem is, she is completely toxic. If I had ever been "in love" with her, or given her exclusivity, she could have really created a lot of drama for me.

So I dumped her. She's been back a few times, to try to learn more from it, but I keep telling her, "Look. I've been in bad relationships, and this is a bad relationship." The real problem is her, of course, but it wouldn't be useful to tell her that.

You can either figure that out early, or you can pay your ex. $48.6M to go away. As Paul McCartney said, after his divorce from Heather Mills: "There'll be no more nagging, no more chaos, no more Heather — bliss. I have peace at last."

Reminds me of the old joke: "You know why divorce is so expensive? Because it's worth it."

[–]Cunt_Robber6 points7 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Yeah man, i've also come to conclude that as a man it's your peace of mind women have the aptitude to severely fuck with. And at the end of an altercation with a woman, you oddly, incredulously find yourself at fault. Smh

And at the end of an altercation with a woman, you oddly, incredulously find yourself at fault.

Well, you ARE the "grown up" in that situation. Unfair but true. Once I'd come to the conclusion I'd made "too many" allowances for her, I punted. Sanity and fortune intact.

A gold miner suffered a terrible accident in the mines, and lost a leg. A friend visted in the hospital to console him. The injured man said, "Who needs a one legged gold digger?"

"Paul McCartney?"

[–]Buchloe1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

This is really important. I think being raised by single mothers, women teachers, and just the climate of our society has made it extremely easy for many of us to feel ashamed and bottle up what we REALLY want in life for ourselves, because we think it's wrong. We put others first and try exhaustively not to ruffle feathers. Gotta get over this, be really honest with ourselves and accept no shame from others

[–]AvengerSentinel28 points29 points  (13 children) | Copy Link

Great post.

Think about it...if a guy is approaching 5 different women a day for a month...that's 140 women. Let's say only 2% of those women want to screw him. That's 2-3 women a month who are going to want to fuck his brains out.

And if a guy is fit, grooms himself, and lives a genuinely interesting life, there's no way his hit rate will be as low as 2%. Even with a 7% hit rate, that's 7 different chicks he'll be banging a month (which puts him at the VERY far right of the bell curve when it comes to getting laid).

Just like /u/VasiliyZaitzev said in another post, "90% of men's problems with women have to do with them depending on only one woman for their source of pussy".

[–]2 Senior Endorsed Contributorvengefully_yours14 points15 points  (12 children) | Copy Link

You're right, and with decent game you can do better 2% easily doing cold approaches.

I stack the deck, I watch then for signs of interest and only approach those with intent to fuck. The rest I simply practice my banter with zero intent, sometimes I hit a shy one, but usually I'm taking to everyone, including fat and ugly chicks. Practice makes proficient.

[–]1empatheticapathetic2 points3 points  (11 children) | Copy Link

I've moved to my dream city this week after 5 years of forced family slavery. I'm so Fucking happy right now and I just see hot (I consider 5's hot, sue me) women everywhere. I'm not very attractive but I want to start some day game while I'm in this epiphany phase.

What the fuck do I open with? Saw some girls I liked yesterday who I could have opened but I just can't think of shit to say. Social skills are also pretty rusty.

[–]iteal7 points8 points  (10 children) | Copy Link

Opener which works for me most of the time:

Hi.

[–]1empatheticapathetic1 point2 points  (9 children) | Copy Link

This is good. What do you follow it with?

[–]BreathOfDick8 points9 points  (8 children) | Copy Link

Normal conversation. Best example is observe something about your surroundings and talk about it. Make it creative, not the weather. Don't read all the complicated game bullshit until you're really comfortable having a plain conversation with them.

Once you see how fun teasing and flirting are compared with normal conversation, it will come out naturally

[–]iteal5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

This. This. THIS!

At first you will probably have some diffiulties talking about random stuff, but with time it get's easier. It almost feels like you an talk to anyone about anything at that point. A thing I learned late was that you CANNOT forget to show intent. It's fun and all to talk to random people, especially girls. Your goal is to get laid tho, so keep that in mind.

[–]1empatheticapathetic0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

Well, just for example, i saw one girl yesterday who i saw looking at me while waiting for the subway. Then we got off the train together and we both started walking the wrong way, and both realised at the same time and started walking the correct way (to get another train).

This was a good time to open her but i just chickened out because i didn't know what the fuck to say. Most people here are rushing somewhere and usually miserable. I'm walking around like a crazy mofo just fucking happy im here.

The only way i can imagine opening someone right now is asking where X or Y is. I'm not good looking enough to just walk over and be like "sup", a question seems like the best opener.

[–]joh21411 point2 points  (11 children) | Copy Link

I live in urban north New Jersey. Can't do that here. Life would be so much simpler though. Best I can do is get them neutered and sent to a shelter.

[–]TominatorXX1 point2 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

In Chicago they allow feral cat colonies. Very effective at getting rid of the rat problem. Attracts women too. There's organizations that will neuter the cats and chip them at low cost. They even cut the tip of the ear so that animal control knows that this is a colony cat and not to be taken.

[–]joh21410 points1 point  (4 children) | Copy Link

Do people get fined for feeding those cats? It's not that cat colonies aren't allowed; it's more of that it's better for them and you. Win-win situation.

[–]TominatorXX0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

What's better? Most if not all shelters will kill feral cats because they can live outside and are not friendly. Here, they trap, neuter and release the cats for people who then feed them and keep them as a colony for rat control.

[–]joh21410 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

Because if you feed a cat colony they start depending on you and stop hunting for themselves. And at least through a shelter they might get someone who actually wants a cat.

[–]TominatorXX0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

  1. You don't get fined for feeding a cat colony.
  2. They don't stop hunting if you feed them.That's a myth. They enjoy hunting; it's sport. But if they're starving they won't have the energy to hunt.
  3. Feral cats will never get adopted at a shelter and shelters won't even take them. People will not adopt a feral cat; they're wild. They're not suitable for pets.

[–]joh21410 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

You get fined for feeding cat colonies where I live ($50 for first offense $100 for second) and there aren't much to hunt near where we live. If you feed them, they start to live closer to where you live which has scarcer rodents to hunt off of as opposed to them living where there is more abundance of food.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] -1 points0 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

Since when does a little early evening gunfire raise any eyebrows in northern Jersey. Clearly, you don't live in an "edgy" enough neighborhood.

[–]goldnhorde1 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

I think you go to your local hole-in-the-wall, grease pit Chinese restaurant. the one that is like every other one and has the same huge pictures of Chinese food hanging above the register.

Go there, and while waiting for your food just stop randomly but loudly complaining about "all these cats" and how "they are stray and no one would miss them". maybe a little "they are slow and lazy and would probably be completely unable to evade a pillow case or small net trapping device.

but also add that they "somehow look fattened up and tender".

Get a suppressed air rifle or a break-barrel pellet gun. Shoot from inside your house window with some music on and the lights off, a sheet covering the window with only two holes: one for the barrel and a netted one for the scope. Don't poke your barrel out and fire away.

[–]failingtheturingtest1 point2 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Fun story. I'll try to make it brief.
There was a neighbourhood cat that kept shitting in our garden. Dad tried many different wives-tale remedies to no avail.
Someone suggested that an air-rifle was a pretty good deterrent, and at range, they won't kill it.
So dad borrowed an (high-velocity) air-rifle from a hunting buddy.
Cat arrived, dad watched it exit down the drive onto the neighbour's roof, air-rifle in hand. Took aim, 'snap', and the surely-hurting-and-scared-as-fuck cat flipped off the roof. Mission accomplished.

Two days later the disabled little girl next door knocked on our door, with her blind mother (I'm not making this shit up) asking if we'd seen her precious little Mittens*. She hadn't come home the last few days.

The following day they returned to let us know that we needn't keep an eye out for Mittens anymore, she has passed on. However, to be on the lookout for some sicko in the neighbourhood who is shooting cats.

Turns out, the type of air-rifle was important, as the one we borrowed was designed to kill small game (rabbits, etc.), therefore had the force to match. Poor little Mittens never stood a chance.

* Cat may not have been called Mittens

One thing I'm learning is say you're not sure if a girl is interested or not because logistically you haven't been able to meet up (on both sides) for say 3 weeks. Red flag. Next and keep it horizontal. If a girl is interested, it will happen and fast.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] 16 points17 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

This.

OTOH, if it keeps not happening, then it's not going to happen.

Sure, as long as you are not over-investing in one woman.

Good post but how does a guy who works at an office 60 hours a week cold approach 5 girls a day in a way that will result in getting numbers?

I mean, just stop some girl walking down the street? Ok. Not sure I can pull that off while out at lunch near my company with my coworkers around without getting called a PUA style freak.

Also, the notion that long term gaming doesn't work is false. I've pulled it off many times. It may not be efficient but sometimes you don't really have a choice.

Sure you could randomly approach chicks on the street, bus at a restaurant, whatever but even then - are you going to walk up to a table or 6 girls and pick one to interrupt their meal and chat up? What about a girl with a guy that may be a boyfriend or may be a brother? Do you just roll the dice?

What about a girl with her headphones on in the bus that any non-autistic would read as not being in the mood to talk?

I'd seriously like examples of some guy that isn't already a Chad getting away with this cold approach stuff on a daily basis multiple times a day.

I guess my point is for all the talk about "just approach!" - the reality is you still need to pick your shots. There's not much discussion about how to effectively do that.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

If you are working 60 hours a week in an office, week in and week out, you need to ask yourself some fundamental questions about your life that have nothing to do with women.

how does a guy who works at an office 60 hours a week cold approach 5 girls a day in a way that will result in getting numbers?

Fake excuse #1

N.B. My point was about not over-investing. How many approaches you do in what time period is up to you.

Also, the notion that long term gaming doesn't work is false.

On average, it's not a winning strategy, and is faaar more likely to end in a murder-suicide than if the guy has abundance mentality and isn't afraid to approach. Look, if you want to wait around for that One Special GirlTM to give you some pussy 12 months from now, by all means, go ahead.

are you going to walk up to a table or 6 girls and pick one to interrupt their meal and chat up?

Fake excuse #2

What about a girl with a guy that may be a boyfriend or may be a brother?

Fake Excuse #3

Do you just roll the dice?

Sure, if you have the balls for it. I'm in my 40s. Number of times I have had the shit beat out of me because I approached "someone else's woman": 0.

Walk up, ask them if they're together, how they know each other, whatever to get the convo rolling. If it's her brother then they're probably not fucking and you might have a shot. Tip: befriend the guy.

What about a girl with her headphones on in the bus that any non-autistic would read as not being in the mood to talk?

Fake excuse #4.

I'd seriously like examples of some guy that isn't already a Chad getting away with this cold approach stuff on a daily basis multiple times a day.

What do you mean "getting away with"? If you approached a lot, you are going to get rejected a lot. That's how shit is. Get over it. You know who gets rejected a lot? Guys who get laid the most, because those guys are approaching.

I'd seriously like examples of some guy that isn't already a Chad getting away with this cold approach stuff on a daily basis multiple times a day.

Look, I could follow you around and tell you what to say, like Cyrano de Begerac, and you can keep making up excuses, like "What if I'm a 97 year old kissless virgin midget with a hunchback and a lazy eye? What then? And what if I live on a desert island with No Women Around? CHECKMATE MOTHERFUCKER!!!"

I don't care if you approach 50 women a week or 5 or 1. Too many dudes get caught up over-investing in that One "Special" Girl, and then wind up bitter and pissed off. If a chick isn't into you because she's got a bf, or she's gay, or she's really, really into listening to Queens of the Stone Age on her iPod, then don't waste your time.

The real waste of time, of course, is making up excuses. The guy who approaches will succeed, over time, while "The Moment Wasn't Right" takes the bus home and jacks off. It's up to you which one to be.

[–]throwaway-aa25 points6 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

The headphone one is easy. You make eye contact, squint a little bit like you have a question, while miming taking earbuds out of your own ears. 99.9% of girls will take off the ear buds.

Here's the thing: if you do well, she won't have too much of a problem with you bothering her. Plenty of times I've had people come up and interrupt me listening to music on the train or something. If they are pleasant, make a joke, give a compliment that will make my day, then the initial annoyance of taking me out of my zone is appreciated.

So your job is to get good enough where you can get past this barrier... Because then, you are making her day. Then, it almost becomes rude of you to not interrupt her, and other women, because you are providing value. There will be the occasional sour girl but who cares about their feelings anyway.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I opened a girl using "fake sign language" once. Had a bit of smirk on my face. Dumbest opening move, ever. But she took her earbuds out and engaged with me. She asked if I was really signing, and I said some version of "No, I just wanted to talk to you."

Now could she have ignored me? Sure. Could she have asked, sarcastically, "Are you having a seizure?" Sure. But if you don't approach because you think those are "certainties" then you're not going to succeed at all.

[–]1ozaku70 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

60 hours per week? How about you first start getting a life, caring less about your employer and more about yourself? If you need cash, cut down on your costs. Improve your skills, apply for positions with better conditions. You are just fucking yourself by believing you will build a career by working 60+ hours per week. You will only build a career if you decide to fuck that corporate crap and think about yourself. Noone ever said "You're a hard worker, have a promotion". Instead "He does his mundane job right, let's keep him right there".

[–]king_of_red_alphas2 points3 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Well you guys are definitely are correct in pointing out why it's dangerous to be engage in excuse making when it comes to talking a I girls.

Just tonight, I was at Trader Joe's and saw a girl that almost made my heart stop. Near perfection. Nerdy but pretty face, cute style with glasses and her ass. Dear god her ass. She had bell bottom jeans and had long lean legs but a fucking insane bubble butt. I was like a deer in the headlights.

So I pass her a few times in the store and and in my mind I'm looking for a sign. Anything literally to give me an opening. She doesn't make eye contact at all. I just can't bring myself to walk up to her and say some bullshit when the reality is I just want to take her home and fuck her from behind.

I see her leave and still get no IOI. I see her drive away and her perfect ass is now seared into my memory.

The thing is, even objectively I can't think of any way to approach this girl without at least a little opening ( a smile, a glance, anything)

I guess my threshold is some kind of plausible IOI but that is hamstering I realize.

How do you guys handling approaching at grocery stores? It seems like I end up in this situation every other time I'm shopping.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Assuming you have absolutely zero else to go on, walk over. Say, "Hi, my name is king_of_red_alphas. What's your name?" If you want say something like "I saw you and and I thought, 'I'd like to meet her'" Make up some bullshit about how she has great posture if you have to. You just need something between "tongue-tied" and "Dat AZZ!!! Dat Azz looks like it was manufactured in an underground lab in Switzerland by my favorite Jewish doctor, Dr. Finetush!" You need to lay some groundwork for that, unless she's Slavic, in which case commenting on her gluteal perfection counts as foreplay.

I might have caught her eye and then said, "Well hello there, Little Red Riding Hood", with a sly look in my face. For whatever reason, that always gets girls to laugh or at least smile. I think I can get away with it because I'm an older guy. /shrugs

And anyone might say, "But those are LAME!" Any one of them - ANY - gets her talking to to you. So even if someone thinks they're lame, tell us again how walking around waiting for a Sign from God worked.

I think, for a lot of guys, it's a fear of success, as much as a fear of rejection. So long as you don't approach, you will never be rejected, and you can live in a Dream Machine fantasy, walking hand in hand on a white sand beach at sunset,1 maybe with some Spandau Ballet playing in the fucking background. Approach and get rejected, and that little dream that distracts you from the horror of existence is snuffed out.

But what if you succeed? Whatever you do, don't turn into this guy. Then it'll be "Holy fuck, how do I make this work? Neg, neg, compliment, neg, tap left on the joystick twice and....Oh, FUCK!"

But if you walk away, and never say anything, then nothing "bad" can happen. Of course some other guy who actually went up and talked to her will be plowing that tuchus instead of you, but you will be safe from pain, off on an island, because and island never cries.

"Seize the Moment" gets the girl. Or doesn't, but at least he knows. "The Moment Wasn't Right" takes the bus home, jacks off and wonders about "what might have been?"

1 And really, when you have some deep thinking to do and you want to get out of the house, go down to the beach at sunset, because there will be fucking NOBODY there.

One of them is dating a guy who she was "just friends with" for years.

...for years. Check.

she "jumped from dick to dick all summer" (her words)

Well, summer is the best time to ride the cock carousel, I suppose. And spring break.

They seem to be surprisingly happy, which perplexes me, as this guy is a "nice guy" down to the letter.

Sure. And things are great for him...for now. Once she's bored with Billy Beta, though, he's toast. Or maybe they get married and have five kids and she never cheats and faithfully gargles his nutsack every week.

Am I missing something here?

Well, you might be a little OCD, but other than that, I don't think so.

Put another way, if I were to say, "Men are generally taller than women," you might say "But Uncle Vasya, Britney Griner of the WNBA is 6'9"! That's waaaay taller than most guys!" And you would be correct, it is way taller than most guys, but it doesn't obviate the general rule.

Now, some women will opt out of the CC early (as one of your examples has done...for now) or some won't ride it at all--there will always be asymmetrical people, but let's face it, if being a "Nice Guy" was a winning sexual strategy, then TRP would have posts like, "Skinny Fat: How Do I Lose My Abs And Become The Doughboy She Lusts After?" and "Holding Her Purse While We're Shopping: How Do I Look Only 'Sort-of' Gay?"

I guarantee she has also had five different dicks in her mouth since August.

Society has pushed this in this age of sensivitive men. I have noticed this is in the younger groups. It was not that way when I was early 20's...at all.

Their biological needs will fail them in the end.

The exception is NOT the rule.

The world is full of marvels and anomalies, yet we must actuate conforming to the 99% possibility, not the 1% miracle.

let me know what you think.

Well, if tweaking my analogy in the way you did is helpful for you, great. Really, you lost me in the 2nd paragraph. By like I say, if it is useful for you, great.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Approaching women and trying to fuck them? That sounds like some PUA bullshit. You should just lift and improve yourself until women magically start lining up to jump on your cock.

[–]Battle-Scars2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Right, because the age old axiom of men approach, women choose should be completely ignored.

[–]Korbaine3 points4 points  (10 children) | Copy Link

I understand your overall point, but find it difficult to determine what some of your arguments are due to excessive acronym usage. What started the trend of encrypting posts on reddit anyway? This isn't the only time I've had this problem.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] 5 points6 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

This isn't the only time I've had this problem.

Maybe, it's you.

LJBF and CC-rider should have been easily picked up from context, and SMV is pretty well-known on TRP.

I'm a "walk them to the end of the dock and throw them in the lake" guy. They'll learn how to swim just fine.

Besides, while I write to help younger guys educate themselves, I also write for my own entertainment. Lately, I seem to be fond of: WallSPLAT! It makes me smile. Against boredom, the gods themselves struggle in vain. Or something like that.

[–]franmonkey1 point2 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

The red pill and the manoshphere community in general tend to use allot of acronyms

[–]Endorsed Contributorvandaalen1 point2 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

So does the army. What's your point?

[–]franmonkey0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

ytf do u have to bring up the army for im just saying its not beginner friendly

[–]EmpReb0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

Lurk Moar. The real world doesn't come with instruction. All this place is a collection of exp to help you level up faster if you know how.

[–]franmonkey0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

True Members should commitment to trp by at least learning the acronyms but i was just agreeing with u/Korbaine that it could be a bit difficult to read a post without knowing all the acronyms

[–]TedTheAtheist0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

And you don’t want that shit, anyway.

Unfortunately I do if she's Indian. :/ My only weak spot.

[–]Senior Endorsed ContributorVasiliyZaitzev[S] 4 points5 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

You probably only want a ride. My one-itis from Back In The Day -- in fairness, she was everyone's one-itis back then -- rang me up and suggested a "relaxing weekend" together. That turned into me plating her for a year. It was a win for her, too, because she was very deeply submissive and I know EXACTLY what to do with submissive girls. So it was a fun trip in the WAYBAC Machine -- as you get older you realize the value of having friendships with people who knew you when you were young -- but NFW was I going to marry her. So don't go off the rails. Keep your options open, and your Indian MILFs on their toes.

[–]TedTheAtheist0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Unfortunately I have a real thing for them - not just a ride. I can't help it! :(

Yea, I need to be more careful.

[–]absolucion0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

That's one of those things that piss me off about Western culture. People tell you that women don't owe you anything but she, in turn, is somehow entitled to some amount and combination of your time or money. Your needs and desires aren't more important than her feelings and validation.

I don't know why anyone would ever suggest just settling. We're told not to do it when we're investing money. Why should we do it when it comes to invest money and time?

[–]AlwaysFlank0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Got rejected last night and gave up. I should've kept trying with more women rather than let my self-worth come from validation from a woman. I kept pondering why but I suppose it's not my problem. Thanks for this post

[–]gregguitarist0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

I've been talking to the same girl on and off for the whole first semester of college, a couple of drunken hookups with her(making out, 2 bjs from others) in between and when she found out about one the OG girl got really pissed off. Idk if I'm in like a weird friend zone bc I haven't fucked her, but I grab her ass and kiss her whenever I see her. Anybody got any ideas? EDIT: the drunken hookups were with a couple of different girls too

[–]Wumpus11 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Go for it and start feeling her pussy after you grab her ass. "grab her by the pussy" is correct advice in this scenario. You will know how it went pretty fast.

[–]Arie_R0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

I agree with your bottom line. I feel the same way dating men: they're either interested in me or they're not and I've already got enough friends.

[–]Eyeswears0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

There's another term for this: lateral thinking. Identifying the premise (chick) and realizing there is another fundamental way to approach the problem (options) or even that the problem is defined wrong (fixation).

[–]Forcetobereckonedwit0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

As always Unk...upwards boating.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
