Insightful. I think it depends how we’re contexting “Beta” too, because this can also mean spineless, no boundaries, overly nice, worming his way for female attention But if “Beta” means emotional, caring, kind, sensitive, sexually disciplined, then yes a Beta is a solid catch (as long as he’s still in his masculine frame and focused on purpose, mission, discipline and isn’t more emotional than his Woman. Imo.)

This is good advice for men too. Def fallen into this illusion in dating, for the stimulating, edgy, fireworks kinda woman, leading to inevitable pain

Thanks for sharing! I do appreciate your metaphors and shared examples, it brings a better context for your points. Overall I agree with you on this, but recently I’ve found there doesn’t need to be so much “challenge” and “calling out of bs” Im dating a woman now and it’s changing how I view relationships. She is like my supporter and biggest fan, rather than someone challenging me, because I do that to myself enough. I don’t need my Woman being over my shoulder constantly testing and challenging me like that. For example I am working on quitting adult content, and had a slip up recently, I was drowning in guilt and shame and told her honestly about it and she just held me lovingly about it and it was super healing. If she was like “this is the LOWER you, step up!” I’d have felt even worse. Now I’m porn free and crushing life, because she’s such a fan. That’s awesome you lived with a Nun, and I totally agree with her pov. These days I feel so much annoyance with certain groups of people and their insane political views, it’s very tough to feel love for people, especially when they are just causing destruction and suffering. Dogs are much easier Agree with you about us shaping ourselves only in relation to others. And if I was a man on an island I’d probably love it haha. But ya I get your point. It’s like David Deida speaks about how we can only meditate so much until we face life and bring our center there while sharing our gifts, much more challenging. Last thing I’ll leave is around the Michelangelo example, why do we need another to sculpt us or see the best in ourselves? 🔥❤️

Agreed. This whole framework makes no sense. Honestly I can’t even believe this is a discussion. Wouldn’t you want to date an adult not a child? Ive recently been so much more attracted to maturity and WOMEN and girls (no matter how hot) are just unappealing

Nonsense. A woman can be feminine and still have her life together and doing well. It’s called a Woman, a mature fully grown adult Woman can do this and still be feminine and it’s very sexy. Sure, if you’re dating underdeveloped girls with the psychology of a 9 year old then yeah you’ll have to baby her. Fuck that. I prefer being with a Woman who can also take care of me and help me feel better. It’s not like she needs to be mommy but I def don’t want to be daddy either. It’s a Man Woman relationship.

That’s beautiful!

I think you can equally realize God single and just introspective. Being in a relationship imo should be chill and supportive. I never loved this idea that your partner is supposed to manage your personal growth and challenge you, and that if you walk the path mostly depending on yourself you’re somehow missing something. But yeah, human love is beautiful and feels great. Also the masculine feminine polarity is one of the most awesome things in existence.

That could go poorly

Exactly. I feel like the MGTOW and Tate guys love to philosophize on how to handle and treat women yet the ultimate joke is most of them are incels. They have no real world proof for these theories and can’t even attract women in real life. Honestly it’s quite pathetic. Few of the men here know how to actually lead and polarize a relationship with integrity and respect. And in that sense THEY are the children. And full honesty I think in general women are just more conscious then men

Ditto. I also made money in tech then invested it well. Living in cheaper countries I am able to focus on creating powerful youtube videos, meditating, learning and being. I hope to start earning again soon from coaching and youtube.

You’d be shocked by the amount of men who lie and worm/weasel their way away women just to get a kiss. I agree with you regarding being in your own power there is no need to lie, because lying is actually disrespectful to yourself, thinking you need to hide your truth.

This basically confirms that for most people relationships are just survival mechanisms. I feel like if you are good with yourself you don’t need a relationship to fill that psychological comfort role. Ideally it’s just because you love their vibe. What about love you guys, for real? Do you just not believe in genuine authentic love between 2 people?

Always felt like this dude was a bit obnoxious and unwise

Ditto. They are going to corrupt in and fuck it up somehow, just wait. Everything that was once cool they have used to turn into a money making machine, like YouTube for example, even Facebook (when it first started it was pretty cool). My guess is the same will happen with ChatGPT who is now simply a helpful assistant, but once people become dependent on it, will turn into a biased monetization machine. Personally, I will always read simply because it is relaxing and feels good. It's not even so much about the information, I enjoy a nice masterfully written book , like Ralston or Wilber and soaking in every page while contemplating in a park. It's so delicious. An AI coach will never replace that.

That's fascinating and also disgusting at the same time.

It seems like a personality trait to simply not care what other people think that much. I've had this most of my life, it always just made sense to me to follow my intuition and path regardless of what society, mainstream and people think. Negativity does little to you when you know you are aligned with the truth. Trolls simply become entertaining. I hope you can see it like this one day. Also, don't waste your time on people who don't show interest initially, that sounds fucking exhausting.

I’d also love to see any other mind bending books you might’ve found recently. That Book list is life changing

I def agree with you about diminishing returns though, you can only read about enlightenment so much before you have to actually go sit down and do the practices. I would love to find other mind expanding books, but it’s hard to find them. Many of them I just find boring or lacking value

Books keep you locked in and can rewire your brain and are better than your phone

Yes this is what Martin Ball suggests, sounds like the last thing you want to do but might actually work

Did you also do 5 MEO ?

Fantastic job though! Really enjoyed watching this. I'll stop message bombing this thread now haha. Cheers

I think to truly give a powerful talk on this topic, you have to understand their perspective and argument deeply and your reasons for countering it. Just some advice. This is a topic i am also deeply researching online and in real life. I haven't found a solid answer yet, but these days i am actually swaying more towards what the traditional teachers are saying.

I hope i don't sound too critical, i actually love this post and your notes, it's very well-put together with a solid transmission. Just reflecting some things coming up for me.
