RE: Emotional deficiencies in the manosphere
(10-14-2014 05:43 PM)Ternarydemonite Wrote: One of the deficiencies faced by many men in the manosphere is their inability to form true emotional attachment with people, specially women. Since many of us lacked valuable experience since young age, usually since our early 20s, we never developed key mental processes which lead to form emotional attachment.
As we discovered Game, sometimes in our late 20s, we literally learned to fuck without learning to attach or "love" women, as some may call it. I commented the issue with my therapist and she pointed that many concepts in the manosphere are logically true but ultimately flawed, since they arise from the experience of people with emotional deficiencies.
In such regard, our view of Game and women is usually biased by a narrow point of view, almost genital in nature, ignoring key emotional aspects which ultimately are shared by all human beings in one form or another. An obvious example as you learn Game is when you manage to bang a girl, but she stops responding after some bangs/dates. While many in the manosphere will point that she went to bang the next alpha in the pipeline, sometimes it just means our clear inability to form (or at least make her hamster believe to) a true emotional attachment, which all women crave. Once she detects that not only we only want to fuck her, but that we only know how to fuck her, she of course leaves to search for men who can provide the complete package. Psychopaths excel at Game since they know how to create such attachment in the mind of a woman, instead of just knowing which buttons to push to get a quick bang.
Once I shared the story of roosh and his lifestyle, he pointed key emotional deficiencies, as exemplified by his posts on Anna. I share most of such emotional deficiencies. I actually had one hell of a session, and will continue to study the topic.
Please maturely share what you think are key emotional deficiencies shared by us in the forum.
You might want to ask your therapist about projection.

RE: Emotional deficiencies in the manosphere
This post hit a nerve for me.
Ever since getting into the game 10 years ago, I've slowly gone from cool, to nearly ice cold. Deficient? I don't know. I do know that I will never open up emotionally unless she's exceptional. And most women don't act right anymore.
Am I expecting too much? 10 years ago my standards would have been pretty normal. But thanks to the red pill, I keep getting success, so fuck settling. I can afford to keep gunning for top quality a little longer.
Sustained success in the game comes at a cost, as Nomad said. I'm addicted to novelty, sure. But for the right girl, I would quit cold turkey. No doubt in my mind.
"The right girl"...the final sliver of blue-pill hope I'm still grasping at when I make an approach. I refuse to let go. A life without hope is not worth living.
In 'Mans Search for Meaning', we learned that the struggle itself defines us. In suffering, we find purpose. From 'Way of the Superior Man', it is not the result of our work which makes us fulfilled, but in doing the work itself.
The price is a bitch. But the red pill has made me a better man. It's heightened my bar for quality. It's made me less tolerant of bad behavior, and better equipped to correct it. I can understand my woman better than she understands herself.
Yes, swallowing the red pill comes at a cost. But I will choose it over the helplessness & fear of the unknown I had 10 years ago. I stared into the abyss, and explored that dark side of human nature. Yes, now I know the devil. And learned to go toe to toe with the motherfucker.

I understand what you are saying, but while my experience has been similar, it's felt nothing but positive to go down that path.
First, I live in a world of self-honest now. I am honest about each woman's true value and I treat her accordingly, rather than mentally inflating her worth because I desperately want her to be the one.
Second, by realize how little women offer in terms of real friendship, I've learned to value and make an effort to achieve strong male friendships (no homo).
Sure, it may be disappointing to accept that a woman can never complete you, but they were never meant to and no previous societies ever thought that they could. Only because of the more modern influence of Hollywood type films and media, do we ever consider this a possibility.
Therefore, at the most, I can be disappointed that the lie isn't true.
In the end, however, I've discovered something that is much better than the lie ever was. There's no greater satisfaction than being in a community with other men who do not believe the lie.
That's the real life.
