Thrice log. please help not having a good ig is ruining my life

[Thrice]

What are your self-critiques of this one?

It's a bad pic overall, once i can easily take pictures like this
https://imgur.com/a/HCUcFaK

with no effort i will take care of clothes and hair, i still get confused when trying to change shutter speed aperture etc

Also I'm waiting to get visible abs anyway so why not practice, taking pictures for me is like doing the AA program, i still don't accept my looks and it's a shock every time

Today my workout was lame because i wasn't in the mood, this is what changed my mood

So basically i met this girl two weeks ago, she's a cute girl but i don't like her and she knows that, she told me she's single, today she posted pictures of her boyfriend on ig, a 6tf + beast rugby player... And she's tiny as fuck

I already knew the redpill wisdom woman are never single and single for woman is not the same as single for man... But this was though anyway, i don't why because i don't like her, i think she was fucking with this guy and when they decided they want a relationship she posted his pictures all at once

Nothing new here but what's depressing is the realization that woman don't actually need man, man are just an addition to their life and no specific man is needed because they can easily replace anyone

To reach this stage of not needing woman we have to work for years and the results are not guaranteed

If they can get rugby players so easly they sure don't need an ethnic skinny fat guy with ugly face, they don't need the rugby player himself because they can find onother one

Some ugly guys i know are happy because they have a social circle, My priority should be to find friends, I'm just leaving in my head and it feels so lonely

I know you're hurting brother.

I feel you.

Truth is:

They are worth it.

Regardless of anything else you may say. A woman's love is beautiful. It matters.

You matter too.

In time, when you heal yourself, you will see it for what it is.

Life as a man is hard. If you were focused on biz, and were in my Grind Chat, you will see how hard my boys work. DAILY. It's sadism.

They do it because they want success as a male. Purpose. Love. Happiness.

That's why we do it man.

The pain that drives the negativity is what requires healing. I sometimes get SO negative dude. It isn't that often nowadays. But I feel you so much.

When a gal is truly into you, you'll experience the other side. Many of these chicks are drifting dude, they don't know or care. They're not in this lol. They just are here.

The Greatest Men in the world are MEN OF SUBSTANCE

You're gonna be OK. Just keep working and you need to heal man. Action, healing, brother this shit is a long haul.

Go back and read my log, it was a lot uglier than this one I'll tell you that.

Yet today, I am a loving human being.

Goes both ways brother. The fact that we as men have to work for it just means it’s actually worth something.

Honestly the more I’m in this space the more I’m convinced it really is so much better as a man. Women are given this sort of attention by default early in their lives and then it’s gradually taken away from them and there’s nothing they can do about it. You don’t have to look far to see how bitter and crazy it makes many of them.

Men on the other hand have much more control over building their SMV up and becoming more and more valuable to the opposite sex over the course of their lives. Limitless potential as well. Much more empowering IMO.

And of course you can get to the point where you have plenty of options and don’t feel like you need any one specific woman. Most likely what will happen at that point is you’ll understand it’s nothing personal, and it won’t get you down any more when women have that same mindset. You just stop caring about it because you’re not afraid of losing anything.

Solid

If we work super hard

We are able to be truly Great

Radical once dropped a great quote in my log from one of his bald brethren, Rich Cooper, whom I think he sees as a bullshit artist (lol) but the quote was gold:

"High value men that are competent, resourceful and know how to make serious money are a scarce resource, women aren’t"

That's deep.

And true.

Women are abundant. They're good, there are some lovely girls out there who'll love us. They're the only one's we see, the rest - ashes and dust.

If the SMP is the animal kingdom

The High Value Male is Apex Predator of Apex Predators.

There's the lion. The great white shark. The saltwater crocodile.

Then there is the GOAT: the High Value Male. There is nothing above, and there will never be as long as humanity can draw air.

I don't think this is actually true. I don't think women are as content without men as some feminists on social media would have you believe. Women are not really any different from us at their core, humans are social beings at a fundamental level. Don't you see how bitter some women have become because they can't meet any guy that they're actually content with? There's tons of posts on reddit and social media about women complaining about how they can't find any suitable men.

Women in a sense are not any different than we are. They want to be hugged and loved too. Women can easily find men who want to fuck them, but it's not easy for them to find quality relationships either.

Also like, you're really only talking about attractive women when it comes to replaceability. I've talked about this in my log, but I've noticed how mediocre to below average women tend to be hesitant about putting out quickly because they know that most of those guys would never want a real relationship with them. Tons of matches on dating apps does not translate to being loved and valued as a person.

To be honest though, what you're describing is how it should be. Men should be an addition to their life, just as women should be an addition to ours. Your partner/SO should not be your whole life, it should just be one aspect of your life. If you rely on another person for happiness that will only lead to misery.

Honestly the more I’m in this space the more I’m convinced it really is so much better as a man.

I really needed to hear this. I've often felt like women had it easier, but in reality, it's a trade-off. Grass is greener on the other side.

That's true that's why i can do something about it, woman my age are finished...

The other side of the coin is that my psyche is badly damaged and needs repair, the girl i grew up with now look like shit but ended up just fine and had a ton of experiences as teenagers

I guess the sexes are just different, it's like comparing apples and bananas, you just can't compare the two i guess

Did she really end up fine though? I think Paid Renegade brings up an excellent point. Women gradually get that attention taken away from them. There's this added pressure for them to settle down quickly. If they let their looks fade before they find a guy the amount of quality options they have will severely dwindle.

I agree though, it is an apples to oranges comparison.

 

[Thrice]

Did she really end up fine though?

It seems to me that after experiencing a lot of cock and sexual stuff they settled and ended up fine, can't know the details, maybe be they have some problems like depression/anxiety maybe not. We are like dogs trying to understand what cats feel and think, we will never know anyway

 

[NeverSayNeverAgain]

You may not have the body you really want yet, but your face is lean and you have defined features. You can easily just make a tinder profile and skip shirtless pics for the time being.

You can also just set your location to somewhere other than where you live, just to see what quality of matches you get, and tweak your profile from there.

How do you know they experienced a lot of cocks ?

 

[Thrice]

How do you know they experienced a lot of cocks ?

I was talking about the female friends i grew up with, i used to have a lot of friends back in my teens

Yeah I understood, but still, how do you know ? I don't know how many cocks my friends from high school had in their life.

From my personal experience: my hottest friends have a very low bodycount. They’ve gone very long without a boyfriend or hookups and wait until they find someone they really like. This isn’t per se the hottest guy out their. Most of the time it’s a cool decent looking guy with who they share a lot of interests.

My more average looking friends have way more lays, some are straight up sluts. They fucked the hottest chads on multiple occasions. I always had the feeling they felt insecure being less attractive than their hotter friends and searched validation by fucking hotter guys than their friends.

I don’t think girls with high lay counts are super happy with their dating life. There’s for sure a part of that group that’s just very sexually by nature, but I’m pretty sure 90% does this for feeling like they’re good enough

 

[Thrice]

Well what i know is just the visible part, this means that they're actual lay count is higher, what i was able to see is the guys they fucked and made it public or talked about, or other girls gossiped about "x this summer fucked one guy and kissed another one". I'm sure the actual number is higher, i was slowly getting redpilled back then so i was noticing this stuff and i have a collection of memories

Yeah, I agree tbh. I think when you're struggling as a man its very easy to fall into the trap that women have it really easy. I'm guilty of this myself.

But in reality, you take a look at how most women are nowadays, and most of them are as unsatisfied with the modern dating market as a lot of men are. You don't have to look far to see how bitter and jaded many of them have become.

I'll admit that I feel pretty shitty about the fact that average looking girls can have sex with hot chads. But at the end of the day, those guys only see her as an object and will kick her out the next morning anyways.

I am actually starting to feel like being a man is better. Having the ability to build up your SMV as opposed to having little control is a massive advantage. Meanwhile once a woman's looks fade there's very little she can do to become ultra desirable.

All these guys bring up good points.

Studies show that most people (men & women) simply don't get around that much sexually. Studies also show that most people (men & women) are also in relationships. Studies also show that attractive women sleep around less (probably because they want boyfriends & have no problem getting them to settle).

Overall, I think it's easy to project male sexuality onto women. Human beings have an incredibly powerful, creative mind. It's incredibly easy to contemplate & assume how other people live their lives. Especially if they're women or men you perceive to be more attractive than yourself. It's easy to assume women happily enjoy that much play, or that men you perceive to be good-looking must be having the time of their lives. The problem with this is that you never know for sure what's going on, so it turns into a mental drain.

Are there men & women having sex with a ton of attractive people and living it up? Absolutely. However, the same situations don't apply for everyone. When you try to label everyone with the same agenda, and think they're enjoying stuff you never will... It leads to a path of misery.

Comparison is normal, but you can't let it consume you. It's important to get out of your head and stay in touch with the real things happening around you right now. Keep investing in things that grow your potential, and take action on them. The only thing you can control is building as good of a life for yourself as possible. This is a race that's only being run by you and you only.

Keep moving forward, brother.

ok! the reason i lowered is because some youtubers keep saying that it's better to shoot man below eye level so they appear bigger

That's the video I always send people to when looking for posing.

Also, the bit you refer to, it's about a study on how gender take photos

great video, didn't know there was a study about that!

thank you for your advice brother, i feel i need to practice a bit more, my tecnique is bad, the texture of my skin in the pictures i take i worst compared to what i see in the mirror, the lighting always sucks and i'm still not comfortable, i will have to do it a bit more, the good thing is that i'm learning and becoming more confortable everyday

practiced taking pictures and editing with lightroom today
ps.: on my computer raw files appear as cr3, is this normal?
