I would reach back to my first year of college and tell myself not to take her back after finding out that she was on another c~~~ while I was away at school.

I would tell myself that she has set me free, and that I will thank me later.

I would tell myself that the very first time that she called me a pervert for trying to get her to f~~~ me should have been her last day on my arm.

I would tell myself that I should actually follow through with one of my empty threats to leave her.

I would tell myself not to marry her simply because “It’s time to take the next step.”

I would tell myself that her dislike for giving oral sex (not receiving) is a dislike for me.  Take the clue, buddy.

I would tell myself that she is not the person that I fell in love with…she was just pretending to be – badly.

I would tell myself that our sex life only gets worse, not better, and to make my decisions knowing this.

I would tell myself that I am wasting my time, because I won’t be in love with her any more, she will have killed that part of me.

I would tell myself that at the age of 40, I will realize that she is one of the toxic parts of my life that needs to be cut out.

I would tell myself that late in the game, I will tell her that I am no longer in love with her, and she will still want to stick around like a lingering fart.

I would tell myself that 24 years of faithfull monogamy, even in the face of frigidity, will go completely unappreciated.  Missed opportunities will become regrets.

I would tell myself that I will realize my freedom, find a band of brothers and not feel alone.

Thank you Brothers.

It’s funny you mention this, the other day while out for coffee, I was inspired to write something I might call “20 things I would tell my son today”.

That’s a great one.

Made this sticky . Would be very interested to see what others might add.

Have you ever wanted to reach back through time and give yourself a slap in the back of the head, asking “What are you thinking about!”?

Yes. When I’m thinking straight, I make it a lesson learned and change the way I’m doing things.

But looking back, I saw being friendzoned actually helped me dodge some bullets and not get involved with these whores like some guys did and the misery it caused them.

Ride To Live-Live To Ride.

I chose…poorly. 🙁

1) The social norms on interactions with women really are as screwed up as you perceive them to be.

2) The people who could be and should be your role models for interacting with women have overdosed on blue pill, and cannot help you by example.

3) Trust your instincts even when, and especially when, they don’t conform to those social norms regarding women…

4) It will be a long time that you will have to keep trusting your instincts even when you’ll have no one else around who will agree with them.

5) But someday, decades away, you will stumble onto this website where you will connect with many other men who also accurately saw the norms for interactions with women for being exactly as screwed up as they are…and you’ll know that your instincts were correct all along…

6) There will not be a woman anywhere among the women you are going to meet that will be worthy of that one chance you are going to give her to prove that nawalt. Scrap that strategy…

7) Be aggressive when you invest in Apple… ;-P

In addition, I would go back to the old stupid blue pill me and tell him to leverage whatever woman you were with at the time to attract better and more women. Loyalty is for suckers.
