My date with the "hot" black chick was a fucking disaster. We ended up hanging out on Saturday instead of Sunday. I took her out to eat then we watched a movie at my place. First she showed up at my place looking like a rood rat in a ghetto dress with her tits hanging out. Then during the movie I discovered her breath smelled like shit.
Sunday she called and wanted to come over with her 18 month old daughter. Yeah, no thanks. Ended it quickly.


Edit: I'm really glad I hung out with her Saturday. I would have been so pissed if I missed all that good dota on Sunday.
Damn that sucks. Mine went a lot better than that. Not a hood rat, 22 from Belgium with a nice french accent, about 5' 10", stacked and every girl we came into contact with was stopping her to comment on her dress. She already cooked for me (it was good btw), helped clean my house, do the dishes, etc. I was expecting your situation to be honest.

You invited a stranger into your house on a first date? Some of you guys are ridiculous.

Update on that salesmen for power that came out Friday.

So I got home and looked over their paperwork. Their contract specifically said "must cancel within 3 days to avoid a $150 fee." So I immediately called up because fuck that shit. The voice recording says "our offices are open 8am to 5pm monday through friday." So immediately I see how this works. They get these women to sign up for this shit while the husband is at work, ON A FRIDAY, knowing most likely the husband is coming home after they close.

I had until today early in the morning to cancel. They gave me the runaround so hard and tried to tell me I owed some cancellation fee. When I told them that my wife is not even on the bill they started to flake a little bit. I told them if I got charged for anything I'd push with lawyers (I don't have one on retainer, I was getting nowhere) and they finally said "ok you're all set it's cancelled, no charge."

I told my wife she isn't allowed to answer the door for anyone anymore unless she knows them.

BTW checked this companies "lower fixed-rate" and it was actually double the rate we were paying now.

Yeah what was her defense?
I handle most of the bills because she's very annoying with money. She'll question every bill and scrutinize every detail, even on things out of our control like electric costs.

The guy pulled our electric bill and used some math to show that she would save money, he completely skipped over certain parts of the bill and basically confused her into believing him. He also used some leverage stating that the power plant is going to close in the next 10 years (true, but... 10 years.........) and we'd want to keep these lower rates.

She legitimately thought she was saving money, but it was because she didn't understand the bill. Also he never told her what the rates were, I had to look it up online.

All in all, she is retarded.

Edit: I should also mention this is completely unprecedented. She's never done anything like this. It's so weird.

The Red Pill: Discussion of sexual strategy in a culture increasingly lacking a positive identity for men.

I think it's what you said + figuring out strategies to overcome the problems they have. From what I can tell it's what most of us did when we were 15 and got rejected.

I have a colleague who is a devout, traditional Roman Catholic. Makes good money but is celibate, lives in poverty on purpose (real poverty, basement apt with no kitchen, cracked glasses, etc), no car. Gives all his money to his local church, which is very small due to the nature of his sect of faith.

I loathe religion, but I've never met someone that I respect more yet in my life. He is the exemplary human being, espousing nothing but virtue and goodness. (And is also very intelligent, BS's in zoology and ee, masters in ee). If faith can do that to a person (even if it's illusory), then more people need to be religious.

No woman or wife in his life, and he's the best man I've ever seen.
Sounds like he's asexual. It makes things a lot easier when not wanting sex comes naturally.

There's no problem inviting a strange woman into your house. She leaves the next morning wearing an incriminating dress for a 9am stroll, has her purse in one hand, and is clutching her high heels in the other. It's not like she can make off with your new 60" TV or something.

Seriously though, you should have a good enough Crazy Sense to realize if bringing her home is going to cause problems.

I can't believe that most people on this forum are around my age if not older and still preach this PUA bullshit like gospel. PUA is good about getting yourself laid. The entire facade breaks down after like date 3 or 4. The premise is basically either presenting yourself in the best possible light like you're a saint or telling outright lies. The girls will catch on. They'll realize that bullshit is being spewed from your mouth. If she doesn't then now suddenly you're in a relationship with someone who doesn't actually know who you are. They know this fiction you've presented. It is horrible, horrible, for trying to build an actual long term relationship. It is fantastic at picking up girls at the bar (I'm reserving judgement on their intellect because PUA is all about skirting the truth) and trying to pants them. If that is your idea of a fulfilling relationship than cool. Read Kirun's idiocy and make notes of it. Because it is by the book "All women fit into this emotional box" that PUA preaches. Without realizing for the most part PUA is only good for picking up women who fit into their emotional box they've painted on all women. From there it basically says "Yeah this works on all women all the time. Except when it doesn't. And it doesn't work most of the time. So if you get rejected immediately just try again on a different woman." Go figure you'll eventually find some girl at the bar drunk enough to believe your stories.

And I would've gotten away with it, if it wasn't for you meddling kids!

Anyhow, Tuco was the first one to really be suspect of it. I was shocked that most people weren't picking up on it sooner, especially when so many people were posting articles from the same site.
I personally scrolled past all of them without reading them because they were all silly.
