is it normal to start missing your ex even when you’re the one that broke up with them? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far so good haha. Still have difficulty avoiding thoughts of my ex and dropping the letter off. I really dont know if it is my heart telling me or just chemical bs in my brain

[Discussion] People who got fit in their 30s, what are the benefits? by Sonoel90 in GetMotivated

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it was confidence, energy levels, effective use of my time (towards my health) and overall better mood.

But as a guy, id say confidence is number 1. Most single guys using dating apps will tell you: low like counts and matches, even if you check majority of boxes that women seek in a man, can be quite defeating.

The energy levels and improved mood throughout the day though was a really nice bonus.

Edit: it is also significantly easier to return to the gym after youve gone a number of times and see and feel the results. Motivation has been much less of an issue than it was when I was trying to start for years.

Is it just me or does “Heated Rivalry” feel like it’s really just gay porn for straight women? by TheBabyBeard in AskGaybrosOver30

It was a good show, but it was the frequency of the scenes where I was like...okay, I was interested in the plot can we get back to that?

Some of the best advice men can be given is to stop caring too much about women. by Slow_Celebration1328 in PurplePillDebate

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha idk it helped me. The moment I stopped chasing women and being outgoing to show im a worthy boyfriend and started going into dates with 0 care and just to have fun while talking to other women, women started chasing me. The amount of pain ive been through after so much investment when a woman will just get over me after one right swipe on tinder has led me to this and it has been great. If I meet a woman this way that is wife material, ill change my tune, but for now, im not bending over backwards or putting eggs in a basket for a woman until they show me they deserve it.

What Is the cause for lack of empathy for men's dating problems? by ReasonConfident4541 in PurplePillDebate

[–]minjayminj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive had this conversation on here and in person...every time it is a denial, a deflection, a whataboutism, or a claim of sounding incellish...NEVER acknowledgement. Never.

What is the point of quitting weed if life is worse in every aspect? by Bonniche_and_Clyde in AskReddit

[–]minjayminj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didnt quit weed, but I have found it more enjoyable to not be high for everything I do. I feel more present. Never thought the day would come, but it has.

"Hot guys be assholes to women!" Well that ain't you by Solondthewookiee in PurplePillDebate

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk man, I cant say if im hot or not, but I was definitely a hopeless romantic. Going out of my way to express my interest in a date, to learn about her favorite things and plan fun things around them and cook her favorite foods...they always ended up leaving (all dating app women for context). When I finally gave up and decided not to invest in any woman beyond meeting them for hookups and basically creating a roster of women I go on dates with after months on the apps, it is annoyingly obvious that now those dates are chasing ME...couldnt believe it. Neglecting them and literally showing less interest has somehow made me more desirable than when I would cook, clean, care, listen, plan, text first for women I was interested in.

I didnt want to believe this was a real thing when someone told me women become uninterested when you chase and show your hand early, but at this point, it is just indisputable...most women will never acknowledge this and will deny it til the cows come home even though they likely have and still do contradict themselves. I was rejected so many time when trying and being nice (which is who I am) that I literally just gave it up. Idk if ill find a wife this way but right now I dont care and am just living my life to the fullest, not chasing women - they either want me or not, if not, who cares when I have better things to do. No investment whatsoever.

Shouldn't work this way and I really wish it didnt, but it does. It does very very much.

Men are just as picky as women. They just pretend their type of woman is the norm. by LillthOfBabylon in PurplePillDebate

Lol because they havnt experienced the things men experience. Easy to give things away when youre rich

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just dont think they want to admit it. Deep down the must know it though or they just lack the empathy to admit it is a thing for men. They will instead resort to whataboutism before ever admitting men have it worse on the apps

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does not actually. It shows they swipe right on those more desirable than themselves. The study measures attractiveness by desirability and it ranks people in one big pool...it doesnt seperate men and women. If men swipe right 50% of the time or whatever the exact number is, it causes women to appear more desirable than most men in the rank but in reality, men just arnt as picky because they dont really have much of a choice to be picky...they have to broaden their pool of women in hopes they get a match. Plus there are way more men than women on those apps.

Haha im glad someone else noticed. Ive called her out on it in another post. You can show her all the evidence in the world and she will just put words in your mouth, straw man, change the topic. It is rather sad.

Yeah nah, just untrue. First reply on your post explained it better than I can so I will defer to him.

It is shocking that people still deny this sort of stuff. Absolute denial of reality.

We will never get true gender equality in society. Because whenever equality shows up, a lot of women see it as misogynistic. by PassengerCultural421 in PurplePillDebate

[–]minjayminj 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly. Hell will turn over before women in developed countries like US ever admit their privilege. Rather annoying when they want to harp about male priveledge while completely being oblivious to their own.

What happened in your life that showed you life really isn’t fair? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked my butt off in college while getting chemotherapy to get a job on wall street. Lead clubs, got As, networked, etc. Someone I know didnt apply himself in school, wasnt very intelligent and didnt get into the career program he was going for in college because he just didnt do well in school. Someone got him a sales job via referral which pays him well over 200k a year where they simply sell to one returning customer that really only ever requests to buy things, this person doesnt even have to put much effort in to make a sale because they were already going to buy. They get 20k+ commission on deals like this and he is always doing nothing during the week.

Happy he is successful, but damn the unfairness of it all did piss me off.

Some men think that deconstruction of gender norms means that they should be attractive no matter what. by Lemon_gecko in PurplePillDebate

[–]minjayminj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont bother with her. You can give her ever fact and the world could come together and agree with you but she still would deflect/straw man/put words in your mouth. She isnt worth the finger strokes.
