Being a monk is honestly rough when you are lifting heavy and your testosterone is naturally this high. I have made a lot of realizations and got many confirmations in this stretch of pain.
You have to ask yourself what is the natural order and what is worth it and what isn't? Are the SIMPS winning? Should you employ tattoo game, memorize a bunch of scripture, be a corporate cuck, live vanlife and surf everyday while high on Pakistani Hash Oils and Shrooms?
1st Realization
This is nothing new but people aren't doing very good in the United States. People are getting their teeth kicked in by inflation and they are on edge about this upcoming election. This has added to the division between men and women because statistically young women are going more liberal and young men are going more conservative. This has added extreme stress to people but especially women who tend to make decisions based on emotions vs a more logical approach.
Even though I'm a monk and not on the search for new women at the moment there are various women from the past or if women are right in front of me and I start talking to them that is another story.
2nd Realization
Even the super SIMPS who lead with their wallets ultimately have to pay more even for these women selling themselves. Even if someone was going to pay a whore the price isn't going to be the same for a hot guy who is in shape compared to a guy who is 5'3" 382lb. This was a realization that I had subconsciously noticed. Sounds super weird but their are levels to these women selling themselves. Is a woman selling herself if she is expecting a man to put a roof over her head and put an expensive ring on her finger? For this example I'm more talking about women straight up asking for cash money. I have never given a woman cash money, Subscribed to an OnlySimps account, or paid for some private lap dance or anything of that nature. I'm not saying any of that should be illegal or any of that but it isn't my game. Lions don't eat roadkill. This realization mainly comes from my friend from California who was playing baseball in the Netherlands. He ended up in a situation where these women selling themselves basically going to let him bang them for $200 essentially and they were telling him they charge other guys $2,000 basically. He didn't do it and we can say that it might be part of these women's sales pitch all the time but we see this basically in normal society. I just pull up to chicks places most of the time mainly because I figured out they don't want to drive anywhere and waste their own gas. Sometimes I bring cheap wine, edibles, my jokes, conspiracy theories, and good vibes.
I use music game a lot. I have had full on music concerts with so many women it is kind of ridiculous. The confirmation though is when I get asked back several times or women are popping back up a decade later.
3rd Realization
The women are giving props to other women and men are giving other men props. There isn't as much accolades being given to men by women especially. You can see this on Instagram. So many people don't like posts. THEY SEE THE POSTS but they just scroll on by. More people were liking stuff in the past but it is like people don't want to give free likes.
I actually get quite a bit of respect from the younger generation. Guys that are college athletes. In a lot of ways they see that they can learn something from me but getting that level of respect out of the female equivalent of those guys is really fucking hard. I do have a bit of traction in those situations but it is tough for anyone even the guys that are athletes at those universities. In some respects it is harder for them because they won't want the word getting out if things dont' work out. We would think the work is already done but then it is like you have to continue to qualify and requalify yourself.
4th Realization
Most of the legitimately hot women in the United States aren't in relationships or married until they fall off their peak. I'm talking like 95% of these chicks in college that are legit 8s and 9s aren't officially with anyone and they aren't hooking up as much as you think. They might get with a guy from high school when it is fall break or Christmas break but your thoughts that these smoke show chicks are getting with all these guys. That's less than 5% of them I would say. Yeah are there some videos out there online with chicks saying these high body counts? Yeah but again that is a low percentage of these women. There are way more chicks who are 25 years old and have never had an actual boyfriend and maybe had a couple hook ups and are very confused about how to approach trying to have a boyfriend or any of that.
They have been sold a lie and because of the nature of the dating market it is very tough for them to navigate and men have had to turn into savages in response to this modern environment. Most guys with any level of game aren't taking these chicks on an sort of dinner date to get to know them. You basically get burned showing too much interest or offering to do anything like that.
5th Realization
The birthrates are going to implode way worse than the projections. I have tracked a lot of guy's success or lack there of in the dating market and my network has cleats and boots on the ground around the globe.
In a place like the United States if you don't stick with a high school sweetheart or have a similar type situation early in college statistically it is going to be very unlikely for you to sustain any longevity without paying out the ass or essentially having no power in the relationship. Realize that with no fault divorces and the courts generally siding in the favor of the woman in the United States it isn't uncommon for women to keep gaining more and more leverage. People don't realize how many women are allowed to have sex with more alpha dominating men with big cocks as part of the negotiation of being in a relationship or marriage. In the past the woman's family would pay a Dowry to the man to take care of the daughter and get them started out in life. Now the man is going to pay out the ass and have to allow her to fuck other dudes. Let's just say the boyfriend / husband isn't comfortable with that. Well she can basically just do that anyways and what is he going to do? Oftentimes the woman becomes too expensive to divorce. Marriage just isn't what it used to be. With each level of commitment you actually lose more leverage. Once you are married all the power goes to her and there is no guarantee there will be any sex happening. I would say 95% of these marriages are a disaster.
As far as the birthrates are concerned so many of these women think they have unlimited time and unlimited options. They will sight some celebrity that had a baby when she was 43 but they don't know the full story behind that and they don't realize that even if they are 33 there are far fewer guys willing to invest long term. They get very frustrated and I always go back to 3 women I met in Thailand that were from Houston Texas. They were turning 30 in 2019 so now they are mid 30's and none of them are in relationships, engaged, or married. These were objectively attractive women and they seem generally conservative leaning.
So imagine guys who are 6' to 6'3", athletic, solid look, and mainly only getting half smiles out of overweight single moms. Things are very off and it basically doesn't make sense to be trying to get married or have kids with women here 99.98% of the time. VERY Risky. It's still going to be a risk but the best bet is to go to other countries at this point. I would say the same thing to these dudes that are 25 and good looking and would say the same thing for a guy who is 55. Soon the majority of athletic college guys will even have to hit up the nursing homes and clap cheeks there because they will be so ignored by all the younger women. You think I'm joking? You have noticed there have been a lot more of these age gap relationships where there are younger men dating older single moms right? Well think about in 10 years. It will be younger men dating grannies.
Women here think you are a joke and they think a guy like me is a joke as well. End of story they aren't impressed. They have 7,371 other hypothetical better options they won't end up with. Fembot overload.
Conclusion
Right now I'm pretty strong and my body feels good but I'm at 229lb. I need that extra weight to build power and then when I go into my cut to really have that power at lower weights. The process sucks and I have never used performance enhancing drugs. These guys that use roid game destroy their endocrine systems and they can never really go off the drugs and have erectile issues and all this other stuff and then they are using drugs to try to stay hard.
The fact is I get why guys completely give up and are dropping out of the dating market and the work force. They are seeing guys who are built up getting scraps. We are in uncharted territory considering women get more attention than any other women in human history. Literally a 7 out of 10 chick from some basic ass MidWest town will get more attention than a Queen did a 1000 years ago. That shit would go to my head too.
I'm not giving up. I have been a lucky man and in a lot of respects the fact that this landscape is so harsh has caused me to level up even more and actually side step a lot of the carnage I see around me. These dudes getting divorced and going through these custody battles. It's brutal.
I'm just going to keep doing my lifts and stacking my coins at the moment and plot my escape.
