Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
1. Whenever an Indian person is nearby, I wonder how he's going to troll me.

2. I see deodorant sections in supermarkets/pharmacies and shake my head.

3. I say "meltdown" to myself when I see someone in public lose control of themselves.

4. I examine suits on men to see if it's properly fitted or not.

5. I go to a city and think about how certain races would perform.

I wonder if the guy next to me is really Dash, Deb or Spartan pretending to be someone else.

I wonder if there really is a pet shop nearby.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
A coworker called herself a hamster yesterday regarding a work-related task, saying "yeah it's like I'm a little hamster running in a hamster wheel! hahaha".

Would not have thought much of it before discovering the term here.

"...it's the quiet cool...it's for someone who's been through the struggle and come out on the other side smelling like money and pussy."

Made me see how many guys are living the dream and not settling.

It has made me realize how I cannot waste time and get my shit together.

I have met a few guys from the forum and it always amazes me how like minded we are.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
Realized that women are just cunts these days and it's not a mental issue of mine Laugh

I call out more women on being cunts and disqualify them more instead of just settling.

Cleaned up my style of dress.

I see all women as approachable and not "out of my league".

Get pissed off at the poor level of game of my friends.

Go out dolo more.

Appreciate a fellow player more instead of hating on him.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
1. The forum has made me realize that the numerous problems associated with being a single guy in the Washington, D.C. area are not solely in my imagination.

2. It has made me realize that I am not the only guy in the world who goes to third-world countries and to various U.S. cities by myself. It has also made me realize that this can be, and often is, the best strategy.

Mostly checking to see if other guys clothes fit them or not.

Also noticing when guys are trying to pick up a girl by bombarding them with personal questions instead of baiting the girl into asking the personal questions.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
1) This forum motivated and taught me how to go out solo and not only be successful doing it, but more comfortable in my own skin.

2) Above translated into more confidence, more women, and in sum, more confidence outside of game in everyday life.

3) This forum taught me to be proactive, and go after what I want.

4) It made me realize there really is more out there and than the shitty entitled attitudes I deal with everyday. You just have to work hard to find them.

5) It has also made me want to better myself, learn a new skill/song/language/workout harder, everyday.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: It taught me that game and success with women isn't just a skill. Its a lifestyle. And like many things, its never finished. It is constantly a work in progress.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
1) The Philippines keeps wandering into my travel thoughts; previously I hardly knew it existed

2) I've learned a shit-load about hustling and practical money-making stuff, especially for and from other young guys. Before I joined I had my head firmly in the clouds and clinging to a 4HWW fantasy, the forum has helped me get alot more practical-minded about success and hustle.

3) I find myself a lil more concerned with looks and money and status than I'd like to be. Part of me is adamant it's all a bunch of limiting beliefs, which I think is true, but forget from time to time

4) Humbled me to see how much some people can really "just get it done". Some people here are into long-term international travel, various money-making ventures ( some really earning big $$$$), speak multiple languages, etc - but arent arrogant about that. Rather they just come over as working hard to create the lifestyle they want. Has helped me get over trying to "be special" and just shift focus to taking alot of action to do the things I think are worth doing

It made me realize I wasn't alone, or crazy.
And it gave me hope for the future.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
Made me realize that:
1) I don't want a girlfriend.
2) Not wanting to get married is not a strange or unusual desire.
3) That I need to approach any and every girl instead of telling my friend how hot they are and wondering what I'd say to them if I got the perfect moment.

THIS IS THE BIG ONE:
Made me realize that I don't want a US-based career and that I want to work towards a location independent lifestyle.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
When I hear any guy in real life or on TV going on and on about relationship troubles I keep waiting for someone to step in and say the obvious: "you're fucked, dump her, approach more".

When I hear anyone talk about or hype up a travel destination I haven't heard about I immediately wonder if it might be an undiscovered poosy paradise and check for data sheets.

Whenever I think about career related decisions and opportunities I think about how they would help my game or not.

I have too many goals, interests, and ambitions and pick up several new ones every day. My to-read list is stupid.

I have become height conscious for the first time in my life and am always guessing what height guys are when I used to only notice extremes (anything between 5"8 and 6"2 was "about the same" to me).

I avoid sun like a vampire and often get told I look 5-9 years younger than I am at 28.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
RVF turn me off of American women. Prior to coming here I'd never even thought there was any problem with them. I just didn't know any better. Now I acutely notice the obesity, the crassness and sarcasm, their loud manner of speaking, the shrillness, their often confrontational attitudes. Not all are like this of course, but I notice it now more than ever.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
1. Drove past an IRT today and laughed. Dude looked exactly like one of the IRT memes

2. Same with the baking soda. Every day I apply it and think about how many hundreds if not thousands of dollars I've wasted on bullshit deoderant

3. I'm hyper critical of women now. This has hurt me in various interactions

4. All the health stuff...zinc, beta alanine, ACV. I sleep better and I'm in better shape because of these forums.

5. I see the world in much more of a "matrix" way, sort of unfolding process day by day. Every interaction, the way guys are, girls are, etc. I've always had this observant streak in me but these forums pushed it along.

"...so I gave her an STD, and she STILL wanted to bang me."

that my life doesn't HAVE to END in a few years, when I am married and have kids.

And as an extention of that: I still have to evolve as a man after getting married&kids.

(have to say that this forum is pushing me away from marriage though)

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
1) When I'm in a city abroad, I think about collecting useful data that I can post on the forum.

2) Increasingly turned off by women with Australian/British/American/Kiwi accents.

3) I'm a book worm.

4) Respect and listen to the views of the guys who've been there and done it before me.

5) I enjoy calling women out on their own hypocrisy.

ACV fixed up my skin.

I say "I'd hit it" or "Would not hit" about every broad that drives by while sitting at a light.

Co-signed. RVF helped make me much more apathetic to most (not all) of the women around me.

In addition to this, RVF made me much more cautious about marriage here, to the point at which I'm leaning against it. It also got me thinking much more clearly about eventually taking residence overseas.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
A lot of mine are intensifications of previous sentiments. Others are, admittedly, new:

1. Aware and careful of Indian penchant for trolling.

2. Eat and breathe game 24/7. View every interaction--even seemingly unrelated ones--through elaborate, complex game lens in my brain.

3. Do things just so I can do a thread or post about it.

4. Find myself often thinking: "I wonder what the guys on the forum would think of this?" Or, even more specifically, "Shit, Athlone would totally disagree with that bullshit, and write a three-page post on it."

5. Take Zinc and ACV.

6. Try to deliver every bang like a champion. I aim to drop the diznick like an anvil.

7. More aware of false-rape accusation stories.

8. Started lifting, and stopped wasting time on bullshit exercises like running.

9. Think of forum memes and image macros constantly.

10. Plan forum time into my daily schedule.

11. Attack white-knightism viciously.

12. Loathing betas and weak, effeminate behavior from "men."

13. Talking more shit about American girls.

14. Realize how much of the world is blue pill.

15. Hear the word "hamster" differently.

16. See girl-logic as even more hamsterized than I already did previously.

17. Hate fatties.

18. Hate short hair (more so).

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
The forum has really helped me conceptualize and given me a kick in the pants regarding income and side hustles. There is a lot of good stuff from some of the location independent people, and the overall enthusiasm for making money outside of a corporate 9-5 continues to inspire me.

RE: Unexpected ways the forum has changed you
The RVF taught me that there's a LOT of different ways to get women into the sack.

That there's a lot more posers than I'd ever thought possible. Some of the guys I used to think had mad game I've realized are just losers.

That there is actually a productive place online to share ideas and it doesn't have to always turn into a dick contest.
