She finds a guy better than you, she cheats. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

1) it can also be a guy she only perceives as better in some way. More exciting, etc.

2) some women actually have decent character and won't even be alone with other dudes at all or put themselves into tempting situations. Rare, but they exist.

I'm not afraid of losing her

Good.

From Roissy's Sixteen Commandments of Poon we have number 16:

XVI. Never be afraid to lose her

You must not fear. Fear is the love-killer. Fear is the ego-triumph that brings abject loneliness. You will face your fear. You will permit it to pass over and through you. And when your ego-fear is gone you will turn and face your lover, and only your heart will remain. You will walk away from her when she has violated your integrity, and you will let her walk when her heart is closed to you. She who can destroy you, controls you. Don’t give her that power over yourself. Love yourself before you love her.

Just as a side note, the dude you're replying to needs to stop expecting other users to spoon-feed him and start reading and thinking for himself.

5 10 “, 250lb

I bench max 150

You are soft and weak. Keep hitting those weights. Add in some cardio.

I haven’t done squats

Don't skip leg day. Squats are the king of exercises. They aid in boosting testosterone production and thus growth in all muscles.

I’m wondering on what to do I’m hitting like a plateau

Change it up. Muscle confusion. If you're using barbells, switch to dumbbells for a few weeks. If you're doing high weight, low rep workouts switch to low weight, high rep for a few weeks. Change things up a bit so your muscles have to start adapting.

I had a girlfriend for 2 days then wimped out didn’t even reach first date before I checked out

How the fuck was she your girlfriend if you didn't even fuck her yet? Are you granting unearned titles and unearned commitment?

Have you even read the sidebar? Especially HumanSockPuppet’s Guide to Managing Your Bitches?

[court stuff]

Sounds stressful. Keep at the gym for stress relief, and follow your attorney's advice on shit.

my accident where the lawnmower severed my toe. What do I do?

Try to be more careful!

@Mate1212 I get it. But the best you can do is be better yourself. I have a girlfriend myself and I'm not afraid of losing her, because I know I'm the best fucking option she can possibly choose from.

She finds a guy better than you, she cheats. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

Now I also get it that the insecurity is always going in at the back of the mind but if you work onto being a better yourself every day your mindset will shift entirely. You'll no longer feel insecure or a loser because the subconscious will start believing that you're actually building something. Work out daily, work towards developing your skills, do what you like and actually start living life in the real world instead of your head. This will tremendously help.

Posting that you're insecure about being cheat on will only end up in her cheating because you are a 'loser'. Because losers ain't got options and will cry if their girl leaves. Don't be a loser. And don't be afraid of her cheating. Who knows if fuck-your-bitch richie will have eyes on your girl and wants to fuck her (spoiler: she'll go with fuck-your-bitch richie). Only two solutions, there are: 1) Stop caring about being cheated on. 2) Be a better choice (IN THE EYES OF YOUR GIRL) than fuck-your-bitch richie.

This is very good. The truth put simply. Nice find.

Here's the other half TRP guys prefer to tune out courtesy of No Choice from "Stonetoss". As always, my condolences to those whom this tragedy applies. Hopefully, this thread will provide insight on a topic TRP regulars avoid discussing.

As I've mentioned regarding my own experiences with, and observations of, pedophiles, I've found that many are too profoundly traumatized psychologically to exercise any discernible control of themselves. As such, I'll use this opportunity to re-introduce everyone to "Crisis Magazine" articles I first plugged in the public square some years ago originally published in 2016 by #JosephNicolosi entitled The Traumatic Foundation of Male Homosexuality and The Traumatic Foundation of Gender Dysphoria

Women Leave for Happiness — What If I’m the Unhappy One?

I’ve been married 15 years. Good career(6 figs), stay in shape, live with intention. I realized that I’ve been slowly shrinking to fit inside my wifes comfort zone. Sacrificing myself to try to make her happy by doing what i thought i was supposed to (provide/protect/etc), but....i dont get really anything in return.

My wife is a good woman in the traditional sense — cooks, cleans, caring and loyal. But emotionally, nada. She’s avoidant, defensive and resists everything outside her comfort zone. No hobbies, no curiosity, no willingness.

She says she’s “content but not happy.” I feel obligation, loyalty, and compassion… but no spark, no partnership, no real life together beyond logistics and chores.

Here’s the part I’m wrestling with:

Red Pill talks a lot about women leaving men “because they weren’t happy” — and how men get blindsided. So what happens when I’m the one who isn’t happy? Am I doing the same thing, just in reverse?

I’m not blaming her for everything. I own my mistakes, but she is "dismissive-avoidant".

I’m at the point where separation feels like the only path but part of me wonders if I’m falling into the same trap RP warns about-- chasing “happiness.”

I’m not chasing excitement. I’m chasing a partner who actually engages.

So here’s my question to this community:

How do you tell the difference between:

“I’m unhappy, so I’m leaving” (the thing men get burned by) vs “The relationship has hit a dead end because we’re fundamentally incompatible in growth, effort, and emotional connection.”

Except… I’m not chasing excitement or novelty. I’m chasing life. Growth. A partner who actually engages.

I’m trying to avoid cope. I want clarity if this all on me, a natural mismatch, or a necessary hard decision. Friends say, leave & be happy. Maybe I need to man up?

Plan to separate around new year, if not sooner.

I don't disagree with the idea that it's not any mans responsibility to be the source or well spring of happiness in another persons life. Happiness is temporary, fleeting, that's why we value it so much. If she's otherwise content in her relationship with you, you're doing awesome as far as any guys would be concerned. I can only hope that in the litany of questions you've given your wife over the years after noticing her unhappiness, it has helped you to discern if her feelings are purely coincidental to occurring in the marriage, or explicitly due to it. Once you pull the trigger, it will be a very challenging thing for obvious reasons to undo should you change your mind. However, when everything is said and done you don't need our permission or approval with what you're about to initiate.

Whether you do or not, 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.
