I Am A God
Question for the men that frequent this thread: What is the top piece of advice that you'd give to your younger self? In a tidbit form?
I would have to say that it would be to devote way more time to personal self-construction and less time toward telling a woman how great and amazing she is. Every time I look back on relationships that I've had, the ones where I had an appropriate amount of respect and gravitas in the relationship were ones where I built myself up in a substantial way, while having willingness to call women out for when they fukk up, almost in a way that treats them like a bratty little sister. The one where I fukked up was one where I was young and very dumb, telling her how amazing and beautiful she was, giving gifts, and a bunch of other things that she never reciprocated.
Ugh... I cringe every single time I think about how dumb I was with her.![]()
I've learned that I have more power than I thought and there's a level of confidence & self esteem you should have. Value yourself over her. In my earlier days, women won just for showing up. Don't be that guy just so you can not be alone, have consistent p*ssy. No matter what they did, I was willing to stick with it because I was insecure & just happy to have girls I liked who wanted to be with me........that made me exhibit outrageously simpish behavior that I just don't stand by anymore. What broke me out of that behavior was dating women I didn't like and seeing how I treated them, how respected myself and how they treated me back vs how I acted around women I liked and how they treated me. There's plenty of women out there, if she's not acting right, she can be replaced. Women should earn the things you do for them, the flowers, the dinners, your exclusivity, your time. It's not just something given out freely.
