READ THE SIDEBAR BEFORE POSTING!
I feel so dumb. She was the only one that cared about me. I threw her past in her face and basically treated her like a huge skank. This was digital anger. Now I’m blocked on two platforms but not on the last one. Should I apologize? I feel like such a piece of shit.
What's done is done. If you want your planned apology to have any sincerity, save it for the next time you two should meet face-to-face. Right now, it strikes me that you've got two obvious problems hobbling your development, that being both a lack of mental maturity and a lack of discipline made worse by your access to technologies which enable you to gain immediate communication and gratification. It might be time to consider weening yourself off of social media.

What are your best tips to win in a 2v1 or even a group scenario where you’re alone and you’re going up against the mother hen or the fatty/ugly friend that is cockblocking you? I used to straight up game the fatty primarily as some weird alternative strategy but now I realise they all either saw through my performance or worse yet actually believed it, with pretty girls wingmanning for the ugly friend and staying out of her way

Hi all. I looked for this topic in the sidebar, couldn't find anything.
I'm curious from a theory perspective - how do you know a woman is pair bonded to you? Is it the depth of emotional connection, acts of service, etc? If anyone has sources for this, would be great.
Thanks.
Consider investing into a reliable ready reference you can pick up and study to better prepare yourself for engaging the opposite sex. I'd suggest that you get yourself a copy of Doc Love's "The System: The Dating Dictionary". Doc Love, who until his passing was also known as Tom Hodges, wrote a weekly advice column that's archive is mirrored on several mens focused sites and a podcast. His media is a bit pricey, but it's a solid foundation a guy can branch out from in RP aware circles. I'd suggest you review his advice column to decide if his view on dating and relationships is aligned with what you aspire for yourself. To save yourself a search, give this scribed link a gander to find out if his book is something you'd like to add to your library. It should also be available on libgen.

self improvement is not enough or i've not done enough of it?
hi guys, straight to the point.
I've improved a lot compared to my past self 4 years ago when i first discovered the RP got a decent bod , but no matter how much i try, just can't seduce women tried multiple different(and a combination of them) approach being an asshole, always agreed and amplified shit tests, Machiavellian, kino-ed her according to body language but always got signals to go back one step.
I've even tried to seduce whales(it seems even they have better options than me) to practice but it seems even they are not interested in me. I've developed great hobbies where i'm great at and like doing but its all nerdy stuff philosophy, math, coding, technical stuff. ik these all stuff is not what a woman should give a fuck about but its part of who i am. i also don't drink or smoke or do drugs so parties/bars/clubs are out of the question for me to meet women which reduces my options to cold approaching in my college and online dating apps.
Tried Hinge(paid)/tinder/bumble trio with the best pictures i could find and got 4 matches in a month of swiping, 2 didn't even responded to the first text, other 2 were attention farming men on the app
30+ cold approaches of which I've got around 5 numbers and 1 date 0 lays (yes IK its a low number but cold approaching is not generally acceptable in the conservative culture i live in, but no excuses and will try more) money game is bad as im still in college but its not an excuse to not develop this area of my life
also im not on Instagram or any other social media as consumes too much of my time to build and keep the profile updated and becomes about seeking external validation so i don't indulge
20yo,kv, 5'8, 12%body fat(visible 6 packs), autistic,72kg bw, 21.77FFMI, little more than 2 years of lifting experience, also considering 500mg test after a few more years
I humbly beg the advice of yours intelligence and experience on how to tackle this area of my life and maximize it to its potential.

@prapra-horse I would not confidently diagnose her with BPD.
She had Pill related mood swings, narcissistic tendencies, relentless use of manipulative tactics to make me feel guilty etc.
But I am more of the opinion that she learned all of that shit from her mother.
She can recognise the negative behaviours she has but she cannot stomp it out because of her extreme cognitive dissonance and external locus of control.
So she's just stuck in a guilt loop right now because she doesn't think she can change, but blames how she acts for the relationship ending (correct tho)

how she based her life around me and now I'm gone she doesn't have any friends to do shit with it anything like that. I get the impression she thought she was really secure, thought she could treat me how she liked and is genuinely distraught that she lost it
sounds like BPD, not saying it is, but well
since she has no friends or hobby, she can cry even 12 months, making it her new hobby
assuming it is BPD, you would not be able to predict a single thing, unpredictable to 10th power
push pull push pull, watch some videos from ApexMindset on it

@Stigma I don't know man. That's what I thought at first, but hearing about how she'd been compulsively checking my only social media (Strava) and how she's cried herself to sleep for the past 3 weeks, how she based her life around me and now I'm gone she doesn't have any friends to do shit with it anything like that. I get the impression she thought she was really secure, thought she could treat me how she liked and is genuinely distraught that she lost it
But you're right, my sweet sweet arse is community property now, she bombarded me with emotions today and it's a lot to take it and process.
Deadlifts tomorrow will process it all for me

to put her through all this pain.
You will be able to when you realise her emotions are a ploy and an emulation of pain to win you back.
But she can't have you. You're mine, with your sweet sweet arse.

Man, despite everything I have internalised about the nature of women, nothing prepared me for today. My ex came round to give me my last few bits and bobs and just erupted in a mass of emotion.
It was mildly ego-stroking, yet genuinely heartbreaking to hear about all the shit that had been going on and that I’d be welcomed back without hesitation. Given the disrespect and nonsense I put up with, I assumed the carousel would’ve been jumped on by now, with a callous attitude directed my way.
She rode on her high horse in our relationship and now she is crawling in the mud. It would be entertaining if I didn't still care for her.
I guess this is one of the reasons you're not supposed to speak to your ex's? I thought I had a chance of turning this into a fwb, but I do not have capabilities to put her through all this pain.
I mean, she's already going to feel hurt when I tell her that she's the reason I'm gay now.
