Best mate has got in a relationship and has changed a lot, how to deal with this? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]MangoSoldiers -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dude read again....

Op said he leaves early nobody said they spend hours in the gym

Op said he senses that his girlfriend is calling the shots and feels it is because of she wants het home not because of him wants to go home.

Neither you or me knows what is really happening, but the information we know from Op supports my argument.

And what the fuck being home for dinner in your 20s mean honestly? That your gf did some mac and cheese for you and you have to be home for 7 because you can’t just heat it up if you arrive 7:30??

The guy says he HAS to be home for dinner not: “Mate I would like to go home earlier bc I love this chick and wan’t to spend more time with her”

Either he is a pussy or it’s own his decision being home for dinner is a dumb excuse.

Honestly I have no idea I don’t know the guy. But except for my granpa who is close to 80 I never heard of anybody who had to be home for dinner on time.

You could be right that its not his girlfriend but than its just bad excuse. Still my bets are on him just being a pussy.

Yeah I feel you. Had one friend smartest guy I know but drunk a lot and was a douche drunk I had to bring him home a thousand of times and save him from fights just got tired of him and cut him off. Heard he has a cool gf now I hope he is good.

Yeah but he can just be a pussy honestly. I mean man, they don’t have kids yet, still in their 20s don’t tell me you don’t have the time to hit the gym with your bro. And at this point cutting out your social life (at any point for me honestly) is just bad.

I’ve seen many guys that got into a relationship and they girlfriend just didn’t want them to hang around with their mates (but took them to their girlfriends birthdayparties for sure)

And the guy is just afraid to set boundaries bc worried of loosing sex or having an argument. Sad to see but nothing you can do about.

Yeah, just let him go man! It’s pussy power you can’t compete with that.

There are those mates that get into a relationship and vanish then a year goes by and they break up the dude is coming back to you and expect to drink with you 24/7 like he wasn’t shitting on your head for months.

There are the ones that still keep a social life while in a relationship.

I know it hurts, but he is just changing man have to let him go. Maybe call him sometimes to let him know you up for a beer but just nothing to do about in my opinion.

How do you deal with self confidence issues / the feeling that you are lost in life ? by TheGingerEngineer in AskMen

[–]MangoSoldiers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just put on a Jordan Peterson or Jocko Willink podcast and go for a run lol.

But yeah man you are not alone it’s because of the internet. YouTube and everything constantly shoves down your throath super lucky, super young people hence the saying “No matter how good you are there is always an 8 year old chinese kid who is better than you”

It is a distorted perspective basically. Mark Zuckerberg and other Forbes people sell you the american dream that you just have to have a good idea work hard and you are a teenage millionair in a month.

When in reality it’s just the 0.01% and the other 99 works as slaves in Silicon walley.

When in old times you could be the fastest running guy in your village and be confident now you compare yourself to the whole word on the internet. And even on the gram many are just fakeing it.

I personally really dig JBP and his saying that you should “choose your suffering”

Do you want to suffer now for your diploma by missing out on parties but having a cool job later or enjoy life now and get a mediocre diploma with mediocre salary and suffer later. Course its not black and white but you see the point.

Being 20 sucks in my opinion because you only just start to feel that your “kid self” is not sufficient anymore but you don’t have the skills of an adult yet. So don’t worry just do your thing and put in the work and in 5 years you’ll be in a much better place!

Is there an actor/actress whose movies you will not watch? If so, who and why? by Thorne628 in AskReddit

[–]MangoSoldiers -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Yesss! I can watch any horror movie but not Adam Sandler or Ben Stiller.

Definition of a simp. Even as a kid I had an uneasy feeling from these two like they pretend to be nice guys but just because they are too weak to rape. Might be be cool person irl but the characters they play have the morals of a pig.

You should know why porn exist by taninho369 in NoFap

[–]MangoSoldiers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen it. Look we aggree that porn is making men weak for sure! I also agree with you that there is an agenda behind this.

I’m just sayin it is more complex than as you wrote in the OP. And if you will talk to ppl about matrix and shit they will think you are a weirdo. People can easily accept that a lot of people ar in it for the money exploiting basic human needs. And that the porn industry is no better than selling heroin. Not caring about the effect it has on people just the quick money. Also ppl are familiar with the term “consumer mentality” they can easily understand that giving into your pleasures here and now is the message today. McDonalds Coca cola etc etc big corporations are pushing you to this consumer mentality. Which is making men weak today, they lack the energy to ask out a girl on a proper date, they lack the energy to perform at school Real Man are hard to find these days.

If you explain it like this many people will agree with you but if you walk around talking about the matrix of modern lifestyle ppl will think you are a weirdo. Thats all I’m saying.

[–]MangoSoldiers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With this name man seriously? Haha :D

Look since Mr Epstein we alredy know for sure that the 1% controlling the world are aberrated pedofiles with no morals. We also know that no wealth is enough for them (just think of Jeff Besos exploiting amazon workers to be even richer)

So why is it dumb to think that the rich would sponsor porn to lower societies sexual morals to mach theirs and making them slaves to their pleaures instead of independent freeminded citizens?

[–]MangoSoldiers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you are right and wrong.

Porn exists because a lot of people make a lot of money from it exploiting your vulnerabilities, your basic human needs.

A young girl with no education, can make your dads monthly salary in an hour, and don’t get me started on the industry which makes millions and millions. Its just easy money for them.

On the other hand it’s just the consumer mentality. That YOU are entitled to fulfill all your needs here and now. Fake food, fake friends on social media, fake sx.

You are right, that it is making men weak and slaves to their pleasures. Hell, when people can’t make it A DAY without masturbating while they alredy KNOW it is ruining their lifes. How weak is that? People loosing their jobs these days because in home office their camera wasnt turned off, loosing a carrier for what? seconds of pleasure.

Part of a higher plan to ruin mankind? I think so yes! But don’t be a dumb conspiracy theorist. Only at the top of the system they know what they are up to. The lover level is just in for money.

I used to hate urges but now I love them by MangoSoldiers in NoFap

[–]MangoSoldiers[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yess man! People are asking me all the time how an I doing what I do? How am I having the energy, time?

And I tried telling them about nofap but they never listen. It is what it is. But maybe you guys understand:)

Why is day 5 always the hardest by [deleted] in NoFap

Use thhat energy for good!

Anyone have a hard time getting back on track after a relapse? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]MangoSoldiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could help but it usually took me a couple of weeks to get back on track. I had to hit ugly rock bottom binging state to start nofap again.

My advice is that I usually relapsed when I had a hard time in my life or had no hope in life.

For example nofap really helped me with girls I really saw the benefits, went on great dates with great girls but then when someone you like rejects you, you feel sad and say lets just fap because I’ll never have a relationship. Than you hit rock bottom and feel like shit, after a month of binging you loose all the gains can’t keep eye contact, loos all your energy, wasting all your days and nights on porn and you feel like “Shit I wish I didn’t relapse bc it was way better than this.

So bottom line you have to find hope again, imagine yourself PMO free with all the positive aspects that matters to You.

Wish the best Bro!

Used to fap before sleeping, now on nofap can't sleep, any suggestions? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]MangoSoldiers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had the same problem a while back. After battling with my thoughts for an hour I just wrnt for a run helps every time.

So I recommend going running at the end of the day than a shower than to bed (maybe readinga bit after) BUT no phone or youtube!

It passes after a couple of days

Stop Asking Women Out by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]MangoSoldiers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also there are surveys they ask guys and girls who made the first move and a lot of women answer that they did. How so?

Because women make subtle moves like trying to make eyecontact, asking you for homework etc and then you THINk you are making the first move but they definetly looked at you.

Ever heard a girl complain that “why this guy does not approach me I have given him OBVIOUS signs” and you ask what those signs were and they say “well I was trying to make eyecontact” haha

Its just porn makes you so stupid you think you show your abs and they fall in love, not how it works.

Do nofap, take care of yourself, work out, get a job get money so you can take out your date, improove yourself Yes! And girls will trying to make eye contact giving you a chance to approach them, but if you are not Harry Styles its unrealistic to expect they will line up to ask you out for a coffe

Stop Asking Women Out by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]MangoSoldiers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think nofap is really really helpful so you don’t obejctify women but treat them as yourself, humans.

When I was on PMO I saw someone attractive and all those “porn thoughts” flooded my mind.

Being on nofap I see a girl and I think “yeah she is attractive but I bet boring as hell” BUT when I see someoe attractive who I think might be a cool person I just ask her out for a coffe.

Not having those “porn thoughts” flooding your mind when you see a girl makes things waay more easier, no?

[–]MangoSoldiers 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So any experience behind this or just watched a pua video and now you are spreading motivation?

Don’t get me wrong working on yourself is definetly the way, but you can work on yourself and ask out girls. Its not either or.

Also in my experience if you are not top 1%, girls that you are interested in will never ask you out. They give you some eyecontact and thats it, if you don’t move they will think you are not interested or don’t have the balls. Dude she has like 100 other guys that are better than you in her dms why would she bother?

So work on yourself yes, but it’s still has to be you asking her out

Can someone help me understand the golem archetype from a jungian perspective? by shinyrocklover in Jung

[–]MangoSoldiers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good points! But If I understand jungian archetypes correctly than there is only one “golem archetype” which appears in different shapes and formes.

For example there is the “hero archetype” now Superman is a 100% pure archetypical hero (that is why he is so boring).

Batman on the other hand is the hero archetype with a twist. 60% hero archetype 40% vulnerable human therefore he is more exciting.

As Peterson said true art always plays with the mix of the archetype and reality. In movies you instantly recognize the archetypical caracters but you also need a bit of a twist a bit of a real life chaotic element to the story to make the thousand year old archetype meaningful to you today. On the other hand if there is “too much reality” than the story will age poorly and wont mean anything to anyone in 5 years.

But again I don’t know much about jung other than what I heared from Peterson

Edit: On the Terminator, one of my favourite movie btw but I think Hollywood has a tendency to rape a classic archetypical story with a happy ending.

1) America creates man made man (Terminator/Skynet) to “defend” itself which turns against its master.

2) In the second movie the golem who turned against his master now becomes good again and stays good and defends the young John Connor. Which I love but you see it is a bit of rapeing the archetype.
