"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Louis Theroux explores extreme manosphere influencers in new documentary on Netflix


I watched it and it's quite cringe worthy, it gives a pretty a skewed perspective to the masses.

Anyone else seen it? What do you think?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I would have like it to be deeper and really explore what's happening and not on such a superficial level cherry picking the usual stereotypes.

It would have been nice to focus on the struggles men are facing these days.

Things like how modern dating has changed. Gone are the days of finding a girl, getting married, raising children and growing old together (I suspect this is something the vast of majority men desire and want).

Instead men are being forced to adapt in a world where relationships don't last, marriage is a huge financial gamble and stability isn't really a given anymore.

With social media , lack of role models, so many mixed messages e.t.c.

I think young men are feeling lost, don't know what they are supposed to do and struggling to find their place in the world and purpose.

So I believe the manosphere has been born out of necessity.


I think there are a spectrum of influencers in the manosphere some good some bad.

Would have loved the documentary to have focused on the "why", the struggles of young men more and explored both the good and bad.

Painted a more accurate picture.

That was the whole idea behind the redpill.

But it's been taking hostage by " the leaders" to propagate their bs message. And to address OP,s post;

Sometimes it's hurts when people put a mirror in front of you...the manosphere did it to itself rather than outsiders trying to " unnecessarily " shame the space.

Let's be real; we're in like 10 years now and what good did it bring?

None, and worse yet, there's an argument to be made that much of it has been a regression. More men would actually benefit from getting thrown onto on the streets on their asses for awhile, like so

Where getting bogged down in theorizing about sh-t endlessly is no longer an option
