A reader writes in: Hi Pat, I just had a major realization, that I’ve been living (to some extent) within the “frame” of a close male friend. E.g. seeking validation, following his lead in things. #nohomo Have you ever written about this, or have tips for how to build your own frame? — I’ve written about ditching

One thing that seems incomprehensible, and indeed threatens permanent resentment for many “recovering nice guys” is why — despite all the kind things they did — the women they loved and cared for could act so cruel to them. These are guys who were, on paper, the perfect boyfriends — they were considerate, generous, patient.

One of the topics I’ve “pioneered” in the manosphere is the concept of “Girl Game” — the things women do to seduce men, and how men need to protect themselves accordingly. And because so few gurus talk about it — most guys are concerned with gaming women, not preventing themselves from being gamed (a big mistake) —

Hey Pat,I appreciate your work, it has seriously helped me better my life. But I’d like your help with a situation I’m in right now. Last Friday, after dating for 4 months, I told my girlfriend I love her. She responded saying she loves me too. But on our most recent date, she told me

A reader writes in: Hi Pat Due to a health issue I’ve been dealing with I’ve not been able to have sex with my girlfriend for the last 4 months. Other sorts of sexual play are not her thing and haven’t gone well. This has been amplified by having moved in together over the COVID

I’ve received a couple of messages at this point to address the recent “excitement” around Jada and Will Smith. For those who don’t know (I didn’t either), they recently did an interview of sorts where they discussed their marital problems — specifically Jada’s affair with another man. As you might expect, the red pill guys

Short and sweet content for you today. In yesterday’s email we talked about the problems smart guys have with women. The content revolved mostly around behavior and mindset. However, there is another more “macro” piece to the puzzle that applies to many in the high-IQ category. Their life is their work… and they don’t do

It shouldn’t come as a surprise given my material… but pretty much all of my clients have been intelligent guys. Some simply above average, others “galaxy-brain” tier (150+ IQ) And yet, it’s somewhat strange that such men — so astute otherwise — would need help with women.
