the trials and tribulations of ordering pizza

Me 29F with my 31M 10 years, he insisted I take advantage of a dishonest discount deal on pizza. I didn't want to (my treat). Things got more stressful than expected.

This is like the antithesis of the extreme coupon-er from the old thread

the pizza place is really hurting for that money after they spent $0.30 making the pizza. why not just give the difference as a tip?

that guys comment history...

quote:

This reminds me of one of my earliest truly sexual memories, something that profoundly affected me and changed the way I viewed human sexuality. My sister was a few years older than me so when I was in the depths of early adolescent sexual depravity she was a gorgeous 17 year old nymph who would often prance around the house in a bra and panties, sauntering and pouting with all the sexual energy of a healthy proud young woman. She knew I admired her figure, and was always quick to let me run sunscreen or lotion on her and maybe even "accidently" grab her boob and she'd laugh and giggle and I'd run off to the nearest bathroom or portajohn to rub one out so it was quite a healthy and happy sibling relationship. I knew from careful observation and the occasional foray into her trash can and hamper that she was indeed sexually active, but the degree of her exploits was unknown to me until I discovered, while searching for a token to keep in my fap box, a rubbery black strapon, hidden carefully in the back of that no-man's-land between headboard and wall. A quick scientific sniff led me to conclude the use of this artificial phallus was both masturbatory and coital, and you can be sure that for the rest of the time I lived at home, that black strapon kept me company during my darkest and most lonesome moments.

The bottom line is that by following the MRP program, you are making a commitment to "Alpha Up." That is, our goal is to become more "Alpha." That is, our goal is to become a more attractive man. The problem is that we often focus on the sexual side of the equation to the loss of the rest of the relationship.

Yes, it is true that becoming a cave man muscular guy who doesn't take poo poo from anybody, and is in control of every situation is extremely attractive to women. It is also true that to a certain extent, "Beta" behaviors are counterproductive to the goal of sexual attraction.

That is, being the sweet, caring, considerate, thoughtful, reliable little pussy begger is counterproductive to the goal of increasing sexual attraction and interest.

... Fix her feelz ™.

Feelings are a drug to women. They crave feelings. Anything other than the feeling of being board. Happy, sad, in love, lust, mad, disgust... these are more powerful than any narcotic to most women. Accept this and you will better understand how they function.

As an MRP dude you are inherently logical. You accept that problems are a part of life and so you hold frame and fix them. Most women (and girly guys) are not like this. They are driven by feelings. When they are talking about problems, they are not asking for solutions. They are asking you to fix the feelings.

That's why the more often you try to give a great logical solution to a woman, the worse the reaction gets. "You don't get me!" "I just want you to listen, not to fix everything."

Examples
  • Women wont take responsibility for her f* ups. Why? Because it doesn't feel good. They don't have the greater sense of righteousness for acknowledging her flaws and improving them. It doesn't feel good in the moment, so she doesn't do it.
  • "Do I look fat in these jeans?" - She's not asking "How do I get skinnier?" or "Do you think another brand would fit my body type better?" She's asking you to make her feel good about her body right now... because she never feels good about it.
  • "I had a bad day... Boss was a jerk... Stacy is a bitch... " - She's just venting. She doesn't want your logical answer. She wants you to confirm her feelings and move on. She wants the feeling she gets that she's worth listening too.
  • Story telling - Ever notice that most women are bad at telling stories. Why? Because they don't about captivating the audience, painting a picture and keeping them on their toes. They only care the feelings they get by reliving the story themselves. Think about that. You're just an inactive, trapped audience there while she feel-jerks herself off with an emotional story.
  • "I thought we'd have a new baby/house/car/whatever by now. I'm behind. I'm failing!" - No amount of reason and logic will solve this one. She doesn't want your drat rational thoughts. She feels lovely about these part of her life. Address the feelz by distracting her or fix the problem yourself.

This is why there's a hierarchy of suggested MRP responses when she's feeling negative and talking about it (sometimes poo poo tests):

1) Shut the gently caress up - You're too new and dumb still. Anything you say will mostly likely be responding to her words, not her feelz. And will backfire. Stay quiet and just don't make it worse.
2) Give her a hug - Stay quiet! Hugging is giving good feelz. Bear hug that woman when she needs it. It gives her both natural good feelz and the sensation of safety that is inbred in most animals.
3) AM and other sarcastic responses - My life got way better when I started replying to 80% of what my SO said with well-planned sarcasm. She doesn't give a poo poo about your logic (most of the time). Respond by controlling her feelings to what you want!! Think about that. You're using sass instead of debate to switch her feelings/thoughts around. It's more effective and everyone is happier. This is the way to put the brakes on when she's on the highway to negative feelz and swing down the offramp of your choice.
4) rear end smack, random dance, new music... - Anything that jolts her out of the spiral she's in. She doesn't need a solution. She doesn't want to discuss it. She wants to feel something different. This is you holding frame and communicating, "I'm not going to be pulled into your emotional poo poo. I wont allow you to control me." And.. if you're doing it right she'll be thinking, "Thank you for stopping my spiral. I appreciate a man that can cut through the poo poo and get us back on track."

This is why the rear end-hole got the girl. While you were determined to care about and fix her negative feelings (drawing into her frame) ... he was busy not giving a poo poo, being happy, and sucking them into his awesome feelings.
All of this has been said before. Shut the gently caress up. Hold frame. Bat poo poo tests. But hopefully this helps some of you digest the importance in a new way.

tl;dr - Fix her feelz. Ignore the rest.

Me [27F] with my friend [27F] she was donating her old things, I could really use them and she said no. Rethinking the friendship

quote:

Let me start by saying that she has been a really good friend in the past. I have borderline disorder/depression and I've really struggled with it. Making solid friendships and having healthy relationships was always difficult but she has been a constant friend when Im going thought this poo poo but today she really hurt me.

My bf and I have a 3 year old daughter. He was unemployed for 6 months and just got an okay job at a bank for 16$ and hour working Full-time. I work 30 hours a week for 18$. We are constantly struggling for money. My rent is 1200 and we are behind on our bills. We have even had our power and water shut off because we were behind on paying for them since we couldn't afford the money then. Im always short on cash and in the past sarah has been nice enough to lend me 20$ here and there for gas etc.

Sarah seems to be doing really well. She lives in a really nice apartment, has lots of nice clothes like lululemon, gap etc. I hardly see her because she is always working but we finally hung out after a few months. She was cleaning out her closet and was getting rid of stuff. She said did some volunteering through one of her classes at salvation army and thought she would give them her old stuff so they could sell it. Yes this is a great idea but when I asked her if I could go through some of her stuff because I love her style she said no. She said that she wanted this stuff to go straight to salvation army because they were desperate for donations and could make a lot of money of her stuff. I told her that I could also really really use some stuff and other people can donate to that place. I mean she was giving away gap jeans, nike, lululemon, new stuff with tags etc. She did give me the gap jeans which I really needed but I feel really hurt that I could of used this stuff and she just brushed me off.

We got into an argument and she said my situation was that way because of my spending habits and that many people make less then me and still manage to keep their water on because they "know they need to pay their bills on time." I said well not everyone can live a lifestyle like she does. She got really pissed off and she went on a rampage about how she makes less then me but can still pay her own tuition, rent, bills on her own and save money. She said she wanted to help people who had nothing not someone who doesnt know how to spend wisely. She keep saying that she doesnt know why I need these things or why I can't pay the water bill when rob and I bring in 1000 a week. She makes 1500 a month and can still pay her bills. This is untrue we make about 750-800 a week but even so having a child and renting a house is VERY expensive she literally has her self and her apartment.

I am crushed, yes I know my habits could be better but I have a daughter to raise and car payments, insurance (she has non) rent phone groceries for 3 people oil to pay for ect. She literally has phone, rent and tuition. I don't understand how she couldn't just donating some things to me.

I don't know if I'm being selfish or not. I know if my friend needed some clothes I would give it to them instead of getting rid of them.

tl;dr: Really need some new clothes, friend was getting rid of some and she didn't give me any.
