Based a happyending-pilled

I am perplexed about so many women finding it hard to have long lasting relationships. Once I’m in a relationship, it’s hard for me to get away from the relationship. Maybe it’s because my dad raised me, and I try to see things in the man’s perspective. The reason I try to run away from a relationship, it’s because I put too many emphasis on pleasing the man, and not enough emphasis in loving myself. My happiness, or lack thereof, is my responsibility, and not the man’s responsibility.

Work church college grocery stores feels like sexual harassment I don't like singles bars sometimes but atleast at the bar if I smile and flirt it's kind of a appropriate place to flirt

dating apps are statistically the most common way couples meet now, third places have faded into the background and often times I see men post about how they sign up for these dance classes, or go to church or whatever and the only women there are married and elderly women because they are fulfilled already and are just picking up hobbies. Much of the female dating pool is just in college/focusing on career, 1/20 women have an onlyfans, indoctrinated by feminist ideology, or in their rooms depressed just like a lot of the men who have opted out of society. THIS is the world we inhabit, and im saying that from the perspective of living with my fiance not as someone who has a stake in the progressively worsening situation, just trying to be honest about reality. This doesn't even touch the topic of hypergamy and fatherhood or the lack thereof.

Men no longer date women; they don't have to because women give it up willingly because they are " sexually liberated ". Men are not struggling; just watch the videos on KZfaq and you'll fast come to the conclusion that women are being ghosted and used like toilet paper. This is why they are constantly complaining; getting a man is NEVER a problem for women; it's KEEPING a man that's the issue.

@@RARochester yeah I think any one who did a little bit of digging could see this but the cognitive dissonance of some people who can’t look past their gendered lenses. Men are finally wising up. Men are rational to a system that sees them only as a utility and doing the smart thing by walking away from society until there’s a benefit to upholding it. Women will compete for the top males only to be tossed aside and then will expect the world from an average male. Average men are wising up to this game and also walking away or being just like the top men and playing the field

@@matthattermatador4595 Correct !!

@@RARochester When 95% of women chase 5% of guys, of course they are. But that's by their choice.

because many men are seeking financial success money, material things and porn, lots of PORN! and other distractions are more appealing. Gym, making money, hobbies, sex with hookers in Thailand and Latin America abroad is much easier than dating women locally.

Right haters are clueless and don't do research. As Jordan push accountability, these haters clearly has no accountability. Well said boss

Except it's just not always true. There's a huge surge in entitlement in the younger generations. The amount of times I've seen people breaking up over the most ridiculous things is absurd. I've even been on the receiving end of such ridiculous breakups that made absolutely no sense. Never argued, never fought, didn't disagree. We went out for date night or to have fun. Stayed in to chill. Laughed nonstop. Nothing was wrong. Still been broken up. My friends included.

@@spin.chicken it might not be a popular thing to consider. But it may just be that you weren’t the type of man she’s interested and she didn’t realize that until after the honeymoon phase. And breaking up with you over something minor was her way of getting out.

@@eirini98 The God father has spoken

It makes sense because the men allowed the changes and conceded power to feminists.

exactly. ignoring that is pure stupidity

"Free love" and "hook-up culture" are just BS container phrases that disingenuously removes accountability from women under the guise of it going "both ways". In reality, it's largely women wanting to sleep with the men they actually want to get with and then getting mad the men that they **consensually** slept with didn't return the romantic feelings beyond bedroom fun. In situations like that, did the man coerce the woman into sleeping with him? The truth is that men and women by and large are sleeping with the opposite sex at different rates. These days, a third of men have not slept with women in a year or more. My point being: there is no "both ways". It's women making choices as adults with the freedom to choose then blaming their undesired outcomes on "both sides".

@@theophilusniilamptey8519 you can tell you missed the entire point of JP’s lecture, jeez.

I still think that the message from Rollo Tomassi is on point. “What is their incentive to leave the escape?” The problem is young men, don’t want to grow up and take responsibility for their lives. Why are they stunting adulthood and becoming adult children who live at home? What is there incentive to go out and be a man? People want young guys to become men so they will be more attractive to women for marriage. All the responsibility, no authority, no benefits. What is their incentive, the only way to get them to take responsibility is to have them take it for themselves. The problem is there is no incentive for them to better their lives because their escape is so much better.

@ Average Joe I just finished listening to Kevin Samuels KZfaq channel. This is in direct opposition to what Kevin Samuels preaches.

Did you deliberately miss the point

@@evaphillips2102 thats what men typically do. miss the point unless it fits their narrative

😂

Its not common sense, its denying reality. "Whether modern women are dateable or not isn’t your problem" well if youre a man looking for a woman, it most definitely IS your problem.

@@Likexner I’m glad the conversation is being had with women about what men want and vice versa, but you can’t change the world and the people in it. It makes sense to prepare and make yourself into the best version of yourself as much as possible so you can attract the right woman. Because not every modern woman in the world is non traditional.

​@@SummerJ200 "I’m glad the conversation is being had with women about what men want and vice versa" But it really isnt. Its mostly about what women want. Where are the women honestly asking what men want and actually listening? I dont see them. No matter what, boomersimps like Peterson will _always_ just blame men and dismiss any external factors, however real they may be. Peterson will tell men "dont worry about the alligators, just find that rubber duck man". You can show Peterson that in certain countries, a man who marries has on average a 40% chance his wife will divorce him and steal his children with the blessings of society and Peterson will still go "jUst iMproVe YouRSelF mAn". His denying of reality borders on that of an old cat lady in her 50s on social media asking "is it too late to find love" and then blocking anyone who says "yes". "you can’t change the world and the people in it" Oh, but you absolutely can. Not by yourself, not easily, ill give you that. It always starts small but it can build up. Feminism was a world changing thing and it happened. _Someone_ started it. Men walking away from the society that doesnt care about them is also a thing that started small but its growing. "not every modern in the world woman is non traditional." I assume you mean "not every modern woman in the world is non traditional". I consider that an oxymoron because in my book, youre either a modern woman or a traditional one, you cant be both. It does depend on your defintions though. If you consider any woman living in the modern world a modern woman, then yeah, i guess there can be traditional modern women. What tradition are we talking about though? The 1950s? The 1850s? The 1350s? What religion, what culture? I think a reasonable bare minimum is that a traditional woman has to be a virgin before marriage, has to have her father involved in the mate selection process and has to marry young and produce multiple children. She has to stay at home with them and take care of them. She has to have her family as the highest priority in her life. Not her boss, not her career, not her social media, not her single friends. Divorce is a dirty word to her. Now with this standard established, i believe there are very few traditional women in the west and there arent many of them left even globally. If i had to put it in numbers, i would say no more than one out of ten thousand western women are traditional. And thats just the bare minimum, not considering what shes like personality wise, how she looks, what her family is like, etc. Nowadays a lot of women seem to think that just _saying_ they are traditional makes them so. Just because she doesnt have blue hair and doesnt scream about patriarchy and attend pride parades, that doesnt make her traditional. If this is what she considers traditional, then the word has very little meaning. Its just a fashion statement, an accessory to a lot of modern women.

@@Likexner that’s a long complex reply . Okay well the macro problem of culture shaping women’s negative ideas of marriage is being addressed, and some women are taking it on board. Also many women are complaining that men are not husband material they’re being messed around and played by mulitiple men who they find out are just not serious.. are just staying single…. Another huge problem. However the personal power that people have to change your own life right now is what’s going to make a difference to a persons life immediately. That is for the individual to make 100% sure that they are marriage material. Mentally, emotionally, financially, and not bringing a whole lot of negative ideas and insecurity and baggage into a potential relationship.. which will ultimately make us incompatible with even the most reasonable partner. That’s my point. What’s going to make the biggest impact on our lives is us changing ourselves… because ultimately that the only area that we have control.

Duh. People with common sense and dont blame others know this.

When men swallow the "im the problem" pill they become unstopable

Tell him to look at both and see the truth that lies In both of them. Some people blame themselves too much and start to feel guilty for things they shouldn't feel that way about. Sometimes that happens. Should he blame women? Only where it honestly is the cause. everywhere else leave them out of it and look at himself

@@x97s the high standards and accountability pill lol. One thing that has helped me immensely is expecting life to consistently be hard, because it is. Bring determination to the table instead of being discouraged when life isn’t easy all the time.

The issue is far too complex for simplifications. If you're 5'5 with a funny looking face you're going to have a hard time in the dating market place. I think what has happened over the last few decades or so is that men are taking less time to learn lessons that it formerly took longer to learn because of the internet and they have looked behind the curtain and seen what life can be like for genetically privileged men and the average woman. Some men are desired for not doing nothing because of their genetics and some will wither away despite trying hard. In the latter case it may be a case of strong genetic limitations or slight genetic limitations combined with bad luck. It does not matter how much you self-improve if you just don't happen to run into women who like you and who are the right for you. If you think that such bad luck is still his fault, what do you think about children dying of accidents or illness? Nobody likes that but it's just bad luck and happens and it's not always the person's fault who dies. If you can accept that then why cannot you accept that some men have bad luck in the dating market place? Gaslighting men into self-loathing and digging for flaws in their "personality" forever is awful. This is a strategy that women learn to use against unattractive men when they cannot bring themselves to say that they don't like his looks and it's mostly about his looks most of the time. Unless we're talking about plastic surgery then self-improvement can only go so far.

@@miesvaillanykyisyytta3252 This reply sounds like victim mentality to me. I know my friend very well and he needs to take responsibility and not blame women. There’s a reason he has “bad luck” with most women he talks to. This isn’t true of all men obviously. It’s important to hold people accountable - accountability can inspire growth, mental health, and success. Conversely, victim mentality often leads to feeling helpless, out of control, and depression.

Amen. As a woman, I feel the same way. I learned very quickly… Disney lied… there is no prince charming… if I want a nice life and to enjoy luxury I had to work for it myself. Applied myself and focused on school and work and now own my own home, car, and saved $ for retirement. I cannot respect men who haven’t done the same… and they talking about submitting? To what mission? It is preposterous.

It's not one or the other, one thought process does not preclude the other. You can take responsibilities for your outcomes, even already have your desired outcome whilst still understanding there is an issue with dating in today's climate. It's observable reality and matters if your emphasis is on building communities, and not necessary your outcomes. I think perhaps the question could've been rephrased so as to not come off like the person asking the question is struggling with women, but from a perspective of people looking to build a community. And huge congrats to The Roommates!

It's a bullshit statement for me but not for everyone else.

@@ToddRogers00 your argument would be wrong majority know no one is gonna save them especially in a certain race but people refuse to use logical yes there are a percentage that thinks someone is gonna save them

@@cnote3598 there are virgins out here they just don’t want a red pulled psycho near them so to keep them at bay they lie and act sexually experienced. I have seen it and as a Virgin I have done it. These manosphere crazies need to be kept at arms length especially since most are hypocrites anyway. They cry about wanting virgins and when they get one they want to treat her like the women they call “whores”. I THINK NOT!!!

What do you mean?

Strange. My experience was the opposite. The women I have worked with said the most disgusting things about the men in their lives. The men I worked with rarely said a negative thing about the women in their lives.

Talk to me in a few years after marriage. We’ll see it’s to early for you to speak

Speaks a lot about your fathers integrity and what he passed down upon you and your siblings. Glad things worked out well for you and your future wife. Hope others learn from your story.

Your father did a great job, teaching you and your brother how to treat women.

The men here trying to prove you wrong don't even have present fathers. The father what they had was the streets and never had a family representation but yet they talk the most how marriages are but in reality only know and see toxicity around them. That's why some try to disregard your mindset eventhough your doing great. Wish you and your fiance good luck and much love together 🙏🏼💝

Broke musician = status

I would love to know the quality of women you were pulling. Education? Career goal? Life goals? Spirituality? In my experience woman who go after rappers, especially local rappers, tend to be birds or are just looking for a good time.

@@AMusicBaby I mainly played in cover bands. I mostly talked to educated women. Most women I ran into were either artists, in psych, or in social work. I’ve seen what your talking about though. If you’re a local rapper or some decently known artist they have a certain group of women that follow them.

Same here, man. Musician. Kinda a painful existence. I mostly got viewed as the guy that was an escape from the woman’s dull life. I never found any quality women worth being with doing music. I became a CNA, going to school to be a nurse, all of the sudden all the women vanished, and I was viewed as a weirdo. It was wild. (I also gained weight in school, so that is probably why) CNA work became horrible, and I decided I didn’t like it. Now I’m doing door dash, and I make more money doing this. Seriously, 24-29 dollars an hour doing freaking door dash. Oh, and now I see two women every week who just come over to sleep with me. WTF?? Right!? I am going to the gym now. Makes you think about what women really want, right? Women don’t need men’s money anymore, but they do need and escape from the corporate life they have brought upon themselves. I’m gunna start my music again soon.. maybe the ladies could tell that CNA and nursing was something I was forcing on myself for security during the “pandemic”.

@@benbenben123ben that’s definitely true about the musician thing being seen as a fun time. You run into some interesting situations. If you’re that type of person then it’s a decent life but most musicians I ran into or worked with admit it’s hard to balance a relationship. Not impossible just hard. I’m sorry to hear about the RN thing not working out. It is a rough job and career path. They may have sensed it or sometimes the way we voice things also has an influence. Man I’ll just say have fun when your in abundance while dating and enjoy the quiet when you’re not. Trying to figure out what someone wants is just difficult and something you have get from the individual women you’re interested in.

As a woman i wish you goodluck in your further self discovery. You made the first step - realized something. Honestly, i also have the same problem as i am a female incel. My friend advised me to present myself better, as Jordan did now. I can see also how dressing better works better. But i still feel i have no will to keep going because of the past experiences. I just wish you good luck and as to myself, an open mind to learn and adapt and not give up. Because there is hope for all

He is such a dick that's why, Peterson so spot on!!!!!!

Thank God we still have real men around like JP 👏👏👏

Ur sooo right

Hafeez blames everything on women ? That’s not true at all

Exactly.

He's brilliant, but naive and dopey in some regards. Yes, men need to level up, but that's not the whole equation. A lot of women also need to be held accountable, and a lot of them aren't marriage material, straight-up. Peterson, like other TradCons, will just always tack it on men to patch a sinking ship, no matter how many holes it has. What the TradCons always leave out, is that the reason young men are so absurdly ill-prepared for the harsh realities of life today, is because of feminism. We have an epidemic of weak and absent fathers because of the sexual revolution, and God knows how many decades of women telling men that they aren't needed. Ridiculous divorce laws that no one wants to fix, pervasive hookup culture where only the top strata of men share amongst them most of the women, women who don't want to be wives, etc. ALL of that is because of feminism, but TradCons won't bring it up, because they don't wanna offend women lol. It's just easier for them to tack it on men, and ask them to man-up and lift the boulder. If divorce laws become even more parasitical tomorrow, women became even more rebellious and lower-quality wives, there will be another "Peterson" telling men to man-up, and take charge. "Well, it's bad, but that's life. Life is unfair. So what are you going to do, just sit there and cry to yourself, and give up on women? Are you going to be afraid of women all your life, or are you going to make something of yourself?" "Go on and marry, take a chance, you'll die anyways. At least you'll have lived your life knowing you did all that you could. Be a real man." If it isn't Jordan Peterson, there will be another "Peterson" saying the same thing. Just man-up. It's all these people know really, no matter how bad things get. They'll always compare men to the men of old, but what they don't realize is, that the men of old wouldn't settle for the absurd deal that today's men are given. They'd either simply walk away, or force their will upon the situation, whether that's good or bad. Guys like Peterson will never try to solve the problem itself, just tell men to deal with the symptoms. Beware.

@@toocheaptobuycolognes3681 That's why you just walk away. There's no better feeling than leaving the morons shaming you stunned as they realize you'll no longer bail their boat because you no longer care.

He definitely did shill to a side he said the woman is right even tho time and time again women have shown they lack logic and a bunch of other stuff

Not necessarily a true statement that women want to mate with an above bread winner. Dr. Vaknin, a professor of psychiatrics, says it is not about bread winning that women choose mates but other intrinsic qualities.Jordan and Kevin Samuels promote this idea that women want the HVM and that is just not the case. I would be considered a 10 and I married an unemployed guy that is 5'6". I fell in love with him because he asked to walk my dog. He spent his last paycheck on me for a birthday gift. There are no group think here we are all individuals and to put us all in the same catagory. I am sure there are those who choose a mate based on your assumption but the majority of us want to be valued and validated by a future mate not what's in his pocket.

Rewatch the video and listen brother

@@kayhawkins5925 no. He’s right. There are multiple studies showing reason for declining marriages is because women don’t find men economically attractive. Since women are earning equally to men, there’s no chance for majority of average joes to out earn all females. And women are far less likely to marry men who earn less than them. While men have been marrying women who didn’t even earn a penny

@@raghuveer4552 believe as you wish fits your narrative. Men who have to be led by men " coaches" or "guru's" have no identity of their own so have to be told how to think, feel or believe and the real reason men have become weak as easy to become a victim and blame women. Guess I will have to tell my unemployed son with a beautiful girlfriend that his relation won't work out.

@@kayhawkins5925 congrats on being an outlier lmao. There are women who still have dating apps when in relationships. Can see it with your own eyes

Women at some level need to admire you. They need to see a trajectory of kindness quiet strength and success in you.

Ask yourself if you would date yourself. If not, then improve yourself.

@@RARochester Good for you sir

This is great advice for us women also. We need look at ourselves and not just point fingers. Also love the not bad mouthing each other to friends/people. I find that so trashy when friends do that all the time. It's like they can't get through a single hangout without ripping into their husband/wife.

Except the hole in his logic, and I don’t know why this question wasn’t asked, but what about women “batting out of their league” like he says men do? I’d argue most women nowadays bat out if they’re league than most men do. Every women feels entitled to a perfect top 10 percent man.

@@SCheco3 Oh, female here! i like facts.^^ Example: Till i was 30, i was only together with men who had no car, sometimes no job at that time, outisders. But outside my private life and when i was single, half of the men i rejected, talked sh** about me behind my back...like: I am being too picky, only want men with a big bank account and/ or a bigger car. These things where never an item for me and in our conversations!^^ And of course it was not true. But it had something systematical. It happened so often, that when i was 16 yrs old, i expected it after EVERY rejection! Normal. I forgot to say that i also was, of course, a sl**, can not count to 10 and it is easy to see that i am not fun in bed.^^ That came from men of every backround. From minimum educated to highly educated. But fact is also (yes, guess what? There can be more like ONE fact. Good morning^^) that the other half of the rejected men react like adults...sometimes charming. That charming that my hormones started working. (Because love is just hormones and i can not be with someone when i don't really feel anything...i know, i am so oldschool^^...but that was the case with most of my female friends).

@@ponternal 🤔

Hw ode wrong about climate change tho, everything else, I don’t have a problem with.

@Cristiano Ronaldo Wrong. The last one she really saw as being a suitable match was engaged to someone else. How he managed it over 6 months was a puzzle.

If she's a welder then she probably looks, behaves or dresses manishly. 😌

With all due respect she's the one who chooses them so a part of it is on her

I am the same age as your daughter. I, too, am unmarried with no children. I've only gone on a couple of dates. I cannot blame this on external factors or bad luck. At her age, she cannot blame bad luck for not meeting someone. She needs to evaluate what she is doing, or not doing, that keeps her single.

Men do that to cover up their flaws, be a bad boy, or are unhappy because dont make good money or have good looks.

Don't blame us. You broke marriage apart and broke apart deep relationships. Men are just adapting to the new world that feminism created. Now that serious, responsible relationships are no longer possible due to the absence of suitable women, men are just finding other ways to be happy.

Manosphere is needed these days, yes it is not perfect but it is surely needed

@@Megabimol I'm a woman and I totally agree with you. The manosphere is just dangerous and risky for some men, I think, because it causes them to simply hate women and view them as objects. Not all women are Miami influencers who just want to play the field and settle with a rich, old man. As a matter of fact, the majority of women in my life are exactly not that. So I appreciate Peterson's focus on traditional relationships and introspection (rather than generalizing an entire sex)

@@3l3phantz But the thing is we are living in the most progressive era of our time and marriage is the most old conservative institution, thats why you see lots of clashes between these two thing. You miss read me! I said manosphere is not perfect ( as no person is) but it is needed in this most progressive era we are living in.

@@Megabimol human beings are advance because we evolve. Marriage is conservative, but it too evolved with the times. Our great and great, great grandmothers started wearing pants to work during war time and our parent's were able to advance the quality of their living through two income streams. Evolution isn't always bad. To me, Jordan Peterson is one of the biggest advocates for men, so hes challenging men to look within and advance with the times. I suspect one way men will have to evolve is by chucking the coveted ivory tower of university education and pursuing in-demand streams to succeed, like crypto investing, the trades, entrepreneurship, and content creation. Women are dominating spaces that demand being agreeable to succeed. The sky is the limit for men to redirect where they go to succeed and become intrinsically and extrinsically evolved.

And the system will still call you toxic.

ahhh yes, because the legal system and OTHER MEN are just.....INCAPALBE OF EFFECTING MY LIFE......... wtf bruv

what? that doesn't make sense.

Men take accountability for themselves but women do not; the women subscribe to victimhood time and again especially with crocodile tears in front of the judge.

The world today women live in is superficial and they keep telling women that they deserve more and more and more and al because they're false and very insecure with themselves they put up all this makeup and all this fake bodies and they're thinking they deserve everything. What about self respect and chasteness loving other people and stop running around here half naked like sex objects but yeah you don't want to be treated as such what double standards.

It has. He talks about it all the time

Yeaaaah, encouraging women even more to take zero accountability and blaming all men, great way! He is too old to realize how impossible women have become. Kinda hilarious that women used to hate Peterson but suddenly they're fan, hmmm wonder why.

He's trying to empower the average man. The problem is the average man is actually completely fucked whether he tries to improve his situation or not. Oh well. At least he squeeze some money from these poor suckers before the economy collapses.

@@mikeylitchfield4651 Exactly. His experience dates from 50 years ago, women have changed completely and even if men have good jobs, grooming BS, go to gym, learn to talk to women etc he still doesn't have a lot of options since women want perfection.

@@lennertcornette Yes there's the fact he's making Tradcon arguments in a society where that advice is obsolete. The problems with JP go way beyond that though. Taking individual responsibility for what predatory elites are doing to people is basically sending people on a suicide mission. It's all incorrect and asinine advice anyway. It's not mens fault women hate them. It's not white peoples fault they're blamed for everything. It's not the fact that people used too many plastic bags that there are environmental problems. This is all gaslighting.

Disincentive divorce and we will have less divorce.

Facts, my mom left my dad after 34 yrs cuz she is living her truth lol bullocks

I'm still married and now that both my daughters have established their careers and recently bought houses, there is no reason for me to stay. He values and treats his employees better than me, I mean very little to him. Like the interviewer said my husband must of picked the wrong woman, I'm a mistake.

36 years? That's fucking terrible. Don't tell me that.

Its not "everybody", its women.

Im 24 as well. I work at a market and theres a gym right on the other side of the parking lot. When i see an attractive women i ask her "hey do you workout? Cuz u seem to keep yourself in pretty good shape" then i tell her how i workout across the street and grab her number as to invite her one day. Your 24 years old so if your gonna try to get a gf dont wait until later after you have lost the advantage of being a young handsome charming guy. As a man women expect you to initiate so your just gonna have to find creative ways to open women with contextually releveant conversation and be sure to remain positive and relaxed.

I read this book called "The Way of The Superior Man" and basically one of the key principles as a man is to be a light bearer of positivity in your womens life, even when shes being moody. Thats why the phrase goes "be the bigger Man" you have to basically break her defenses with your unwavering love, positivity and openess.

Your not missing much . Asking women out and all the energy / time/ money you have to put into trying to make them happy is not worth it. Believe me , I dated a lot of women and had short and long term relationships. Almost all women are head cases. MGTOW.

@@NenUser12_ that's pretty

@@recabitejehonadab2654 sounds like a YOU problem....just like Dr Peterson is stating....

Easier said than done since a cheater isn't going to be honest about cheating.

You're right

Change being the only constant, I have to disagree. If people are listening to JP, I have to believe they are trying to grow and become a better version of themselves. Otherwise, nobody would give a damn what he has to say. Writing someone off for their past ... We can all do that to one another. Might as well all live alone and in isolation.

@TheHouseOfGames(Original) everyone is capable of change. Unless you are a perfect person, you have to believe it of others. Usually people who say things like "people don't change" what they really are doing is projecting their own failures on others, or giving themselves a reason (excuse) to not even try.

An interesting concept for people to have a dating resumé. I'd like see a swap here and have businesses randomly hire people without looking at their history or interviewing people. Even with all that trouble, businesses still end up with some terrible workers. If it's hit or miss either way, might as well wing it. 😂

I loved your beautiful comment! I pray you will be even more successful 💕

It's tough because there ARE a lot of women out there who suck. That doesn't help YOU. You just need one. And you need to BE the one.

Good job, man. You found the gateway to heaven. It'll take hard work to get there, but you know what you need to traverse.

👌 Great stuff, keep going

Like anything, it's complicated. As someone nearing 40 I have witnessed first hand the dating market being screwed up by apps and the ever increasing demands women are placing on their potential mate (all women are inundated by messages and it feeds into their belief they deserve much more than they can keep - although the smart ones realise this and date realistically). However, the individual male is not making things easier for himself in this shitshow if he doesn't offer anything. Just depends if you can be bothered playing the game these days, it's harder than it's ever been for men. If times get tough, the dating market will improve drastically for average guys

Hafeez making big moves 😂

David Goggins lacks immense balance. Love thé book for specific purpose though

I literally dis-armed a man in an active robbery. My ex's best friend had invited rivaling gang members to a party (thought she was boss) and one of my friends was nearly a victim. I never told my ex about it. Happened on her birthday in her front yard. I could have been terminated that day. That was when I realized that my girlfriend of several years actually made me feel more alone than actually being alone made me feel. And that was the only "reliable" thing about her. Nobody to confide in or show any weakness. That's the quickest way she'll ever split on you as a man. I'm alone either way - so why not enjoy myself being alone? I can't even get a diagnosis of PTSD. I'm on my own as a man, entirely. I saw the collapse of western civilization nearly 15 years ago and I'm enjoying the show! Oh boy this good. All the exes are democrats... like the majority of women... and Men are the problem? That makes sense. Not. Masturbation is the problem? Better try again. Correlation is not causation - that is a logical fallacy Jordan is familiar with. Perhaps it's the other way around? What if excessive masturbation is just a symptom of a much larger problem? Who is to say? That's what I think. Did you know that 1/3 of men are raising children that are not theirs biologically and they aren't even aware of it? Are you aware that marriage is essentially entering a contract where the female signatory is paid to violate that contract? Who in their right mind would agree to those terms and conditions? What if I reverse the role play - are you interested in getting married and losing half your entire life at my discretion as I withhold access to your biological offspring (damaging them in the process to gain leverage in adult quarrels) while demanding that you pay child support for the kids that aren't even yours? *I HOPE NOT* . Does that sound like a GOOD DEAL to you, miss? Gee, I wonder... WHERE HAVE ALL THE GOOD MEN GONE???? O_o Maybe it's not all the men's fault after all? Maybe your therapist is a quack? Perhaps femininity is toxic in this society. Change my mind.

I'm not downplaying you or your C-PTSD. I'm just stating a difference of opinion and asking if you can help change my mind. I don't understand what all this fuss is about and I'd like to be enlightened. Clearly there must be something I just don't understand here. There must be something that, despite my greatest efforts, eludes my comprehension. Who knows?

@@betterdeadthanred318 I don't think men or women not mating is something to be blamed or a fault. It's natural. But remember, Jordan Peterson is more likely a conservative from another generation. And women who say, men are to be blamed for the lack of husbands, are obssesed with getting a partner. Most men are not. A few men are bitter lazy and want a top woman on their life. A lot more of woman are bitter about not finding men, while saying things like "I want a husband like this and that and I don't care what men think about it"... I mean, the husband will be a man... so... they should care. If you are a woman bitter and lonely, you are to blame for that, If you are a man bitter and lonely, you are to blame for that. But if you just don't care, there's no obligation, unless you are islamic, conservative, or gynocentric, those are the ones who think people not having kids is something to BLAME.
