    Well, like I just said in another thread...

    So yes, if you feel that it would be escapism for you to travel, then it might. But staying at home and coming up with excuses for why you shouldn't go travelling could be a form of escapism too, you see?

    That's why you need to learn to listen to your own intuition. Nobody else can tell you what is the right (or wrong) thing for you to do, only you can.

    Understood. It could be a massive regret not to go travelling. I know people say on their deathbed that they wish they worked less. 
    But also I won’t be doing the ‘touristy’ shit that most people do.

    Man, I am in my forties... and I've never felt more confident travelling abroad than I do these days. Heck, in Nepal I ran into a 70 years old hippie guy from Spain who couldn't even speak proper English, let alone Nepali, Hindi or any other Asian language under the sun, and this dude was having the time of his life over there.

    Your age is never a barrier, unless you make it one.

    I understand. I still look into going travelling now and again, I have these sudden urges to drop everything and travel. But that in itself seems a problem to me. I’d feel like I was escaping something. 


  3. @VictorB02 how old are you?

    I’ve been thinking about doing the same, but now I’m 30 I also wonder if it’s too late for travelling around. 
     

    My fear is that although it’ll be fun and exciting, I’d always have to come back home and start again. I might grow as a person but I could just grow internally at home. 
     

    Inner game won’t be fixed by being in a different country. I could be wrong. I’ve got friends that have gone travelling and they always come back happier people


  4. What works for me is simply leaving my phone in my car after work. Not even having my phone in the house. During the day I use it, but when I get home I’m done. You’ll have a few hours to do other things and you won’t get distracted. When I look at my phone the next morning there’s usually not much I’ve missed.

    No heterosexual man will get their "mind off women". Even without the internet depression and social isolation still exists. Just like God still exists independently of your belief in it/him.

    There's so much more to life than relationships. These young dudes are lost in a fog of internet and porn - which makes them think about women constantly. When you mature a bit more you realise how pathetic it all is, and that there's much more to life. In a way being young sucks because you don't know any better, and chances are their father is clueless too.


  6. If the internet didn’t exist, this black pill victim shit wouldn’t exist. Everyone’s getting on with life, and they don’t fall for this crap. 
    Take a week away from the internet and see how you feel. You’ll probably forget most of the ideologies that you’ve accumulated. 
    Go outside and do other things. Take your mind completely off women and the unfairness of life. Genetics is something you ain’t gonna get around. You have to accept it and move forward. 


  7. I know this is an old post, but I recommend you never even start drinking caffeine beverages. It feels good  at first and it does make you feel alert, but after a while you will experience burnout. Then you will rely on caffeine to get through the day. Then you will realise you need to stop but you struggle because you're addicted. 

    I've struggled with caffeine addiction for years now and I wish I could stop. I've tried going a while drinking only water, then I get a bored, flat feeling and I feel like a cup of coffee would elevate that feeling and it does to a point, but then I'm addicted to caffeine again. 

    I seriously wish caffeine never existed in the first place,  but here we are. Some asshole goat herder had to start this shit off. 

    Caffeine and coffee exist because we are working too much and not sleeping enough. If we all worked less and got decent sleep there would be no need for caffeine.


  8. There’s literally no resilience these days with kids. They can’t handle criticism, they spend more time online than in real life, they look up to the wrong people, their parents are probably clueless but powerless too. 
     

    Everyone living their lives digitally cannot be a good thing. As helpful as the internet is, it is not real life. The things that put hairs on your chest are things that happen in real life.

    I didn't say anything about London in my post xD I said I live in the UK.

    I live in Scotland, near Glasgow. Many cities in the rest of the UK (excluding the obvious like London) have a similar setup where moving a few miles out of the town centre will half your rent.

    I managed just fine in a city with 1/15th the population of London. Any major city in the UK will be fine. Obviously being in a small town is a big problem but London is likely not the solution unless you are rich or you need to live there for work.

    Right… Scotland… is there the same amount of beautiful women walking about on the streets as London? No. The bigger the city, the better for learning how to get better with women. 
    So yeah, obviously Scotland is cheaper to live than London.

    IIRC you live in the UK, right? It’s pretty doable here if you have the skills to land any job that makes you over £25k a year and choose to live somewhere cheap. If you can’t currently get a job which earns that then that’s what you should be focusing all your effort on.

    When I moved out 2.5yrs ago all my bills each month (including food) came to around £1000/month. If you were on 20k a year that would net you around £500 disposable income each month, which is pretty decent if you are young and single in the UK.

    Could get tight if you have a car to be fair, and cost of living crisis sucks too. That’s why I said £25k is prob where you can start to save a decent chunk each month. £25k could net you around £700 disposable income per month which is def enough to start saving.

    Like I said, the key is to live somewhere mildly inconvenient where rent is something like £500 per month instead of the more popular central places where it would be double that or more.

     

     

    This is laughable. What borough of London were you living in? Tower Hamlets? Even Tower Hamlets you pay something like £1000 a month for a room in a shared house with a bunch of misfits.

    The cost of living in London is fucking outrageously expensive. A lot of people have to work 2 jobs simply to pay the rent and bills. To live in London comfortably you need to be earning at least £80k a year, and good luck with that…

    Obviously if you want to become a player with the ladies then you’re gonna have to move to London. Towns in the UK like where I live at the moment nobody talks to each other unless you’re with family or friends. Meeting new people in a town is difficult

    Yeah, certainly it's part of the game and you have to at least have the courage to do it.

    Honestly, some parts of Mystery Method never sat right with me -- I found them gratuitious.

    E.g. the storytelling DHVs sometimes seemed more like trying to get attention/narcissistic supply in the way that HE did it, and also the peacocking was just way over the top for the same reason.

    They weren't essential implementations of game, it was just his personal pathology, I think, and were rightly mocked by the wider culture.

    Like, it can all be much more subtle, you never needed to turn yourself into a cartoon character.

    Yep, most guys aren’t gonna be wearing a top hat and wear a fur coat. It might gain attention from people, but it makes you look a bit silly.

    Yeah, it's kinda ass-backwards.  If you have serious flaws in your "Inner Game" (which is really another way of saying self-worth or self-esteem or being grounded, etc.) then that is going to trip you up no matter how many approaches you do; that is going to be your limiting factor at all stages of meeting/being with women.

    And guess what -- if we examine the historical record, that is what guys like even Mystery were prone to.

    I do understand that approaching is important, it clearly puts hairs on your chest. It takes balls to do it.

    Yeah you’re right about Mystery and all the other top PUA teachers, they either had a shit childhood or some other serious issue underneath. I used to like Tom Torero and he was getting laid like a rockstar - only to then commit suicide a few years ago. This just tells me that even if you are banging hundreds of chicks it doesn’t mean you’re mentally sound.

    One of the weakest aspects of Pick-Up for me (and I followed the development of the entire movement, from the early 2000s on) is that they never really focused on Inner Game.

    They always talked a good game about Inner Game, but any coverage of it was always ridiculously insufficient and superficial.

    But to me, Inner Game is about 90% of game.

    100% agree. 
     

    It’s like, if you feel good about yourself and your life and you love life every single day then that is SO attractive. If I was a woman I would find that attractive. 
     

    Why do 4670073 approaches in the street if you can master inner Game and love your life?

    This isn't actually true.

    You don't need to become a COMPLETE ASSHOLE.  You just need to be an "asshole" when it's called for/appropriate.

    Nice guys sometimes see the world in black and white; you have to travel the Middle Way, like Buddha.

    Don’t ya think it’s funny how most men never need to learn this stuff? Most men never need to learn PUA techniques or all that shit
