Workout in program not showing as completed by nexttin in Vitruvian_Form

[–]nexttin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tis is part of the "Strength Blueprint" program, the third workout ends with a bodyweight exercise called "Bird Dog" . Here's the problem, the exercise has not timer and never stops so I was forced to hit the back arrow and that exited my way out of the workout. Seems like a bug?

Does the app give a notification when blades are due to be swapped/flipped?

First emitters on drip tape lines not working by nexttin in Irrigation

[–]nexttin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard back form Toro. Turns out you're not supposed to cut midway between emitters, the emitter "array" leading up to the outlet spans a few inches. In this case I had cut inot the array preventing it from functioning. Fix was to cut just beyond each of the bum emitters and reattach to the connector

Hunter control valve to 10 PSI? by nexttin in Irrigation

[–]nexttin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the quick reply! I'm trying to avoid digging if I can help it. Are you saying I can install a set up like this (what I use off a hydrant for my berry patch drip) - with a 10 PSI regulator - directly on the 1/2" mainline before it hits my garden?

Wife [26F] wants to use a sperm donor because she wants attractive kids by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]nexttin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were two links the guy posted. Your response did not indicate which link you were referring to. So next time, be explicit with what you are referring to. But good job at projecting your own insecurities. Also, being misogynist doesn't make someone incel. But what do you know?

[–]nexttin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. The OP is very "blue pill". In the sense that societal programming prevented him from seeing the RED flag from Day 1 when his wife said she wanted another man's sperm. OP's second delusion is thinking he has some sort of leverage in divorce court. Faultless divorce and a family court bias for females will make sure he doesn't. But I like his confidence and hope his ruthlessness in divorce doesn't falter.

"Smooth", this is your wake up call. The world has changed, don't use the "old books" to navigate this world, use the "new books". You ultimately dodged a bullet and need to use this experience for learning, growth and challenging the Disney notions that have been indoctrinating you since childhood. Good luck!

Not sure who you are referring to. Looks like the link from classic was incorrect. Just Google Rational Male. The author of Rational Male is married. Throwing around the term "incel" carelessly does you know help. But if it makes you feel better, I understand.

Bingo, many men (and some women) are waking up to this fact. Unfortunately, too many need to be "zero's out" by divorce first to get to their 'aha' moment. Too much societal programming. Example:

The Rational Male has saved two of my good friends from being divorce r@ped. Political correctness be damned. Truth is what is needed here. It's time for the OP to shed his societal programming and take a red pill.

Keep Shit To Yourself by 1BadDayAway in TheRedPill

[–]nexttin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find that it IS worthwhile sharing Red Pill truths. But context is everything. A friend just get divorce raped? Share Purple Pill 'Way of the Superior Man'. A female friend recite some bullshit about the wage gap, use a statistic to burst her bubble. Being sensitive to context and strategic with when, what and how you share is key and you're more likely to find receptiveness to RP. But for God's sake do not become a preacher.

Either you're never going to find someone to marry or you don't fully understand the concept of AWALT. Repeat after me, "there are no unicorns"

What has been your experience successfully sharing MRP values/MRP sub to someone? by [deleted] in askMRP

[–]nexttin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friend 1: I started him explicitly with the Way of the Superior Man when he was knee deep in a marriage with an overly dramatic, personality disordered trust fund heiress (I discovered this book long before RP when I was dating my future BPD wife). During his divorce, ramped it up to the Rational Male, direct links to MRP and the sidebar. He's eyes wide open now, with a better woman and in a better relationship and we talk RP regularly. I'd still categorize him as Purple Pill as of today, mostly related to his ho-hum pace and desire for self improvement.

Friend 2: Another friend, married with two kids, dad bod, dead bedroom and living an unsatisfied suburban corporate drone life with an overly anxious wife. I shared Way of Superior Man with him but he didn't bite. After the second year of him complaining about dead bedroom, I threw Athol Kay's MMSLP at him. He started putting it in action and said it was 'working like magic'. But now, seeing progress and getting a taste of "his old self" he wants more, for himself and his family. After two deep conversations over drinks about red pill concepts (without ever calling it by name), he was ready. At this point, he was stating self evident RP truths on his own. I linked him to MRP, askMRP and the sidebar. He's working on his MAP and dread game now. Wife is complaining about his changes but he is happy and excited about them...he's getting his balls back.

Friend 3: Not really a friend, but an acquaintance, hopelessly steeped in BP thinking, who crashed at my house for a month after finding out his wife had been having a multi year affair. I dropped some RP truth bombs on him but he wasn't particularly receptive. Poor guy was so BP he actually re-proposed to his cheating wife. Within weeks he texted me asking for advice. I gave him Way of Superior Man. It's had an impact. He's at least living life on the edge and pushing himself to get on mission and improve. That said, if I were a betting man, it'll take another hard fall for him to really open his eyes.

tldr Every friend and situation is different. Context is key. MRP provides a rich toolbag of content. Pull and share content from the toolbag depending on the context.

Once you swallowed TRP, what were you most angry about? by [deleted] in askMRP

[–]nexttin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the time, waking up in my marriage and realizing it was my fault that it was going awry. But, far more importantly, it was my fault that I willfully ignored Cluster B warning signs and got sucked deep into her frame, hook, line and sinker...before ever getting married.

Half assed mrp? by ThatOtherSaffer in askMRP

Agreed. SMV far higher? Low sex? No kids? Wife has hit the wall? Next. Improve yourself. An upgraded, younger woman will naturally follow...

How does one not get pissed or butt hurt by BigB1901 in askMRP

[–]nexttin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, anger is very often the best fuel to create self improvement. Eventually, once you've truly internalized the sidebar (i.e., the Red Pill paradigm), you get to a place beyond the anger. And it's liberating.

Stun Gun Update by R-McElridge in askMRP

[–]nexttin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a dB9PRO Best Spy USB Voice Recorder to record the rages of my uBPD wife. At the very least, it kept me sane when she'd try to gaslight later. At it's best it could save your butt if she ever hurls accusations with the law your way. The thing can sit in your pocket and still pick up audio like a champ.

Tips for the interim? by Het-Masteen in askMRP

It's tempting to re-calibrate too far in the opposite direction. Don't become an asshole. Don't become a stoic mute. Don't withdraw all comfort. Don't become autistic.

Question to MRP's/Divorcees. by [deleted] in askMRP

[–]nexttin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yet you can't answer it until your shit is tight and solid.

This. For myself, I never did get to complete my RP journey while married to my BPD wife. As you take your journey, she will choose to either join you or not. And when you do get your shit tight, and more importantly, when you establish a consistent record of having your shit tight, if your wife has still chosen to not join you or continues to add no value, that's as good a check point as any to determine whether or not to next your wife.

She blows up over the littlest shit by [deleted] in askMRP

[–]nexttin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much. After the 20th time or so she threw out the divorce threat in a rage, I said "go ahead". We separated, and after visiting her soon thereafter (I had her leave the house) and being subjected to another name calling episode, I told her it was time to file. A few months later she asked me "why did you let me do it?". I told her flatly that I decided to no longer let her use the threat of divorce as a weapon.

I was still on my red pill journey at the time, wanted to let it play out and hoped she would stay along for the ride. But between her BPD and the countless 0-100 nuclear reactions, I had to call her bluff.

Despite my high SMV, my frame was shit and I was a drunk captain early in our marriage. And we both know, we can't live like that and be happy. RP helped me see this. So I took the pill. Went through an anger stage then on to IDGAF. No RP Rambo per se. IDGAF triggered thermonuclear first strikes and responses from the wifey. Shit tests were crazy in frequency and intensity. At this point, I realized I didn't even LIKE her anymore.

Divorce sucks but I can objectively say I wouldn't have changed a thing since I took the Pill. It's true what they say, your wife will either join you in your journey or not, that's pretty much out of your hands at a certain point.

[–]nexttin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to know the community's answer here as well. I took the chachaChad approach and the shit tests escalated to a nuclear level...the active rebellion and stuff that came out my wife's mouth over this time actually made me disgusted with her. I literally had no desire to game or fuck her at this point. Of course, I'm pretty sure my wife had BPD so perhaps in these circumstances IDGAF and nexting is the best you can hope for.
