will update in like a month lol
Absolutely fucking no one:
Me: Ah yes. How splendid.
@TheProdigyofWagdou this fits my journal theme of goalposts and stuff so I’m putting this reply in my journal, lol.
It depends. In its totality, being a 26 year old male that has never had a girlfriend - isn’t uncommon.
Depending on what social groups, cultures, environments and status groups you’re in, it might be uncommon.
If that’s the case, then indeed you are a weirdo.
Now, before these mopey-assed snowflake warriors with the testosterone levels of a fucking castrated fish begin flagging my post… hear me out.
Unlike other people, I don’t believe in coddling grown men into mental masturbation fantasy land of “aww it’s okay, there, there, everything is going to be alright”. Makes me want to puke. All of the people who adhere to that type of coddling, have shitty lives and get absolutely nothing in life and won’t ever. This is because they coddle themselves in the exact same manner. They’re like little safety clingers, they swing from the safety vines like fucking Tarzan and shit.
Here are some facts.
Weirdness is a relative term.
Weirdness emerges from the contrast between the unusual or abnormal nature of something and our preexisting notions of normality.
Generally speaking, the preexisting notions of normality for society are complete dog shit.
On average, 9/10 men are addicted to porn. If you quit your porn addiction, then you are considered weird.
Here in Canada, they say that only around 11% of Canadians make more than 6 figures a year.
If you make more than 6 figures, then you are considered weird.
If you’re having sex with supermodels on the regular, then you are considered weird.
The concept of weirdness, is a biologically hard-wired mechanism designed to keep you safe, by alerting you on how to fit in with the tribe.
On a subconscious level, there is an incentive in the form of safety, that compels people to fit in with the herd.
Goal posts. Relativity. Levels. Percentiles.
Fuck goal posts. Fuck tribes. Fuck herds. Fuck safety. Fuck weirdness.
You are the master of your reality and the master of your domain. Sit up straight a little bit.
There’s only one you, they could never make another one. The only goal post is you. Do what you want, when you want.
Let’s actually analyze this for a second. When I hear “26 year old that has never had a girlfriend”, I’m thinking to myself:
- prioritized man
- understands the value of what he invests in
- methodical in life
- long-term foresight rather than instant gratification
A well known masculine value is that your life should be well put together before you go around having relationships. This is generally what parents teach their children. If you aren’t a strong version of yourself, then your relationships won’t be strong, period. Why do you think all these fucking little adolescent teenagers running around with their relationships full of toxicity, drama and insecurity? Cheating on each other all types of shit. Just a whole bunch of nonsense, that people think is normal but it’s not.
Now you actually get to work on yourself, grow and end up having a great relationship with someone. Without any type of trauma that you probably would’ve had if you went into dating without any development.

Everything you said was bangon but sometimes recon really makes me feel like a complete loser sometimes . I think the lack of romantic or sexual abundance is just making me feel some type of way . I have goals and aspirations that I’m finally getting around to making into reality but sometimes I just feel like I’m never going to find anyone .

Never mind, there’s nothing lol. It all falls into Skills.
I forgot to do break this down.
Continuous learning, self-improvement, and expanding knowledge and skills. Setting goals, pursuing hobbies and interests, mastering skills and acquiring new competencies.
The thing with this one is… I don’t see myself having interest in certain things. If my level is 0/10 in playing the flute (random), then I’m not going to go and level that up for the sake of leveling.
In terms of endless leveling, it doesn’t mean I’m trying to go and master everything possible. The QoL part is that you need to have certain areas that interest you and that you yourself find fulfillment in. Then you level up those as much as possible (no limit).
One skill for me… is cooking. It’s a nice way to unwind your day, make stuff for people, relax, feel good, get dopamine, etc. Also very sensory, primal and stimulating.
I hope to have more clarity in specifically which skills that interest me the most… maybe capping around at 10 maximum. Also, this skill tree is not that simple because you could have a niche area that you love but 50 different skills in that same area that you want to level up. It’s all over the place really. This is probably the most comprehensive skill tree. A couple of weeks ago, I wanted to learn foreign languages and become a polyglot… now I could care less. Lmao.

Meet me up there lol
Today is the day.
June 30th. 2023. Halftime.
I have spent the last 24 hours preparing for war.
My blades are sharpened and I am fitted in a titanium tunic. My anti-stagnant sentries are masterfully positioned. My alchemy is precise, and will continue to be.
This is not my first rodeo.
No…
I remember my first war all too well…
Before battle, I had spoken to my commander. I told him of my great plans. I told him the brilliance of how I would implement them and how they would benefit us.
After a long talk, I looked into his eyes with a smile. I was young then, and I merely wanted the great man’s approval. He was like a father to me.
Instead of his approval, I was met with a hard slap across the fucking face.
My eyes became watery, as my vision blurred from the impact.
All I remember were these words:
Do not tell me, you dumbass.
Show me.
Luther, signing out.

The 33% rule.
This idea that you should spend:
33% of your time with people below your skill level.
33% of your time with people on your skill level.
33% of your time with people above your skill level.
You are a product of your environment.
A slight twist.
There is an old saying.
It goes “steel sharpens steel”.
It suggests that engaging with those who are equally or more skilled can lead to personal growth.
Makes sense. By interacting with those who possess similar or superior skills, one can push their boundaries, learn new strategies, gain insights, and ultimately improve their own abilities.
An important concept in achieving excellence.
However.
There is also a 33% rule, in the pursuit of challenge.
I call them the 3 swords.
The wooden sword.
33% of your time facing opponents weaker than you.
This allows you to strengthen your skills and gain confidence.
The steel sword.
33% of your time facing opponents of equal strength.
This allows you to refine your abilities through competition.
The god sword.
33% of your time facing opponents that are more skilled or advanced than you…
Opponents that challenge you and potentially lead to your defeat.
This allows you to be humbled and be provided with valuable lessons and opportunities for growth.
The wooden sword dies to the steel sword.
The steel sword sharpens the steel sword.
The steel sword dies to the god sword.
These opponents are not people.
They are experiences.
They are journeys, adventures, goals and pursuits.
Wield your swords.
Then meet me in the battlefield.

What knowledge
This apparently, but needs more explanation.
You know in math class, how everyone just skipped to the back of the book for the answers?
You have to show your work.
Having just the answer, doesn’t do anything.
For example:
One understanding of how reality works, which I’ve previously touched on numerous times… is that the universe is merely a reflection of your internal reality.
You apply that every day, whether you like it or not. Whether you believe in it or not.
That’s like one of the big math answers, but me telling you that, is like skipping to the back of the book.
You’re unable to show your work and so you won’t have any real understanding. You just have an answer without context.
Context is “how”, “why”, “what is the purpose”, etc. It’s everything surrounding the answer and what comes with the answer.
An answer without context is like a puzzle piece in a vast puzzle. Having just that 1 puzzle piece doesn’t contribute to understanding. Understanding is how much you’re able to grasp of the entire puzzle as a whole.
Asking me for knowledge is like trying to skip to the back of the book and get answers.
You’ll have to read the book.
The book is a metaphor for spiritual development.
This is why I tell people to run spiritual subs and figure things out for yourself. Level up your spirituality like you do with wealth, romance or fitness. It’s not like it’s any different… it’s just another area of life.

This forum is not the place for discussion on advanced level concepts.
The focus should be on subliminals, experiences and results.
Most people here just need to run subs and take action for whatever their goals are. Ordinary goals like improving their dating life, starting a business, doing healing, etc.
There’s no way I’m about to write paragraphs openly on here in a public forum on what stuff like this means:
Lmfao.
That’s why I refrain from those discussions and keep it at “just run spiritual subs and develop yourself”. No need to get messy.

Aye👍
That reminds me of this
You’ve tried your whole life to fit in with this tribe, complained that they don’t mesh with your values, but for what? Go and build your own.
