Suppose you fall in love (if hormones hit really hard)

[GrotesqueRogueParticipant 116]

The thing I am really wondering about…

I clearly understand what’s going on in the world. I understand that love is just fear-based behavior and plenty of other psychological things. But we still have hormones we can’t really control, be it because of the smell or smth else.

What actions should we take to not do stupid stuff? I mean, we already possess so much knowledge about how things really are, and then this unfortunate situation might happen.

Or it might not happen because we already identified what love is and in this case our brain will be stronger that this reptilian brain?

I feel confused. I don’t believe in romantic love. But I can’t take the hormones out of the equation.

Has someone been in such a situation, that having all this knowledge you found yourself in a situation when hormones hit your head really hard that it became difficult for you to control yourself? Or everything just comes down to you being able to control yourself and that’s all?

Sorry if my question is not clear enough.

It comes down to you being able to control yourself. The urge to ask her to marry you or the urge to cum inside her are very strong sometimes, but like everything, the more practice you get, the easier it becomes. I am on an extended stint in S.E. Asia and it is wall to wall pussy, beautiful, smart, hot young girls who are lining up for a go, falling in love is a regular occurrence but soon enough you realise that you can enjoy those feelings without committing and limiting your options and future fun. However, there comes a time when you meet someone so perfect, who after a long time doesnt display any of those bad behaviours so typical of many women, that they are worth hanging on to and forming a proper grown up relationship with. Especially if they are bi and into swinging.

If you continually let go of attachments it will get easier. It’s not just women you worry about but also blue pill men. Just be indifferent to society, it takes time it’s a process like anything else.

I reckon that if you are aware of what you are feeling and why then it isn’t a threat. In most cases “Limerance” as it is called, that early excited butterfly in the stomach feeling that you get when you meet someone you like is short lived anyway. Just don’t do anything stupid during that time like propose or move in with her and you should be ok. When that buzz subsides you can think clearly again and make her dump you lol.

Ditto all the above. Your glandular system can squeeze out only so much “love” stuff until the supply runs out. Then, you will be dealt a new set of emotions, probably the opposite of the former. Then, those juices will run out, and you will be dealt with yet another emotional wallop.

Ride it out. Do not do anything just because you are having an emotion. Take charge of your life, and don’t let your glandular system run it for you.

This too shall pass. Whatever it is, it shall pass.

Don’t dismiss the ability of women to hide their true selves for years. In my second marriage I made a vow to know a woman for 4 years before I popped the question so I thought she could not keep us a false identity for that long.

I was wrong.

I wouldn’t wait until those hormones run out. I would realize that marriage kills and strike the likely hood of marriage happening like you would strike the likely hood of walking a tight rope across Niagra Falls and surviving.

It looks easy but your life hangs in the balance.

Learn to control yourself. You can only control yourself.

Love is just your asshole nature hitting you with a whip and telling you “PROCREATE MOTHERF~~~ER OR ELSE YOU’LL BE MISERABLE!”

Just stay away from her and by stay away i mean stay away as if she never existed, don’t look up her facebook or anything even slightly reminding of her.

There was a study saying if you do a thing everyday consistently and keep it up for 21 days it becomes routine.I’ve tested this on myself and i give it a month.A month is enough for you to make not doing dumb s~~~ automatic.It will take a lot more for you to feel better though, but the important part is knowing it will come, and when it comes you’ll find yourself laughing on some random bench in the park and people will look at you strange.

Up until I hit my mid 30’s, my “hormones” caused me far too much trouble wasting time with women. In your mid 30’s you start thinking with your brain instead of your c~~~. When you’re in “love”, you lose your ability to rationalize, this is what causes so much trouble for men, they literally follow their c~~~ around.

Women will hide their true intentions right up until they pull the marriage plug for the cash and prizes. Consider any encounter with a woman to be a business contract, you must approach this strategically, they only want money, never put yourself in a position for her to ruin you.

Women aren’t capable of these. They only chameleon temporarily until they can extract the cash.

Because in order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.

I sincerely believe that letting love and hormones rule your life after a certain age means you are not self aware. MGTOW is more than just memorizing divorce facts and hating videos about anita sarkesian. Its about self discipline and self awareness. Hormones rule you when you are in your teens and around your 20s. When you become an adult who wants to go his own way discipline is a huge part of that.  Financial self discipline via working a job and paying bills while avoiding wasteful spending on female self interest. Physical self discipline via exercise and a healthy diet to increase our longevity.  Mental self discipline via hobbies that sponsor creative thinking instead of just eating and playing video games. Finally there’s sexual self discipline.  The hardest and most crucial. Hormones are not an excuse to sexual self discipline the same way hunger is a poor excuse to not diet if you need to. The same standard you apply to food beforw putting it in your body should be very similar to the standards you applying before putting women in your life. It’s that simple.  Think bigger than gynocentricism and marriage laws and female own group preference. Think about what will actually benefit your life abd the life of others in the long run. Thats what it truly means to be self aware. Knowing what you need and dpnt need. Self discipline is a huge part of going your own way. If hormones are a problem stop spinning plates. Don’t date. Give your body time to readjust to a new lifestyle that doesn’t require women. You will not die. You will not explode. It’s the same as any other addiction in our lives. Cut out the cancer. Going your own means freedom from addiction not caging and burying it to burden you more.

I have discovered a truly remarkable list of reasons why women are not necessary for a happy life, but alas this margin is too small to contain it.

Thank you everyone for my daily red pills. 🙂

Love is simply your biological instincts telling you to stick your ding dong into a v-slot machine, and get babies made for the survival of the human race. It may be some lady who has the right curves that makes your lizard brain go into overdrive, or it may be she reminds you of some ideal, you have made in your own head, neither of which tell you reason or logic, and neither of which will tell you a truth, just another layer put in front, to make you procreate.

The sooner you realize that it’s nothing more than some chemicals flowing through your brain, like some sort of drug, the sooner you can negate and reject it, through common sense and logic. Same goes with the need to conform and stick to a social norm, being lonely isn’t the same as being alone, being alone is being independent and possibly already knowing yourself very well, while loneliness is the need for social conformity, and inability to become independent.

Whenever I interact with some girl, and I start getting some lizard brain activity, I simply go into a mode of logic, telling myself how much time/money I’ll probably waste on her, and only setting my own ambitions and dreams further back.  Usually takes my lizard brain out of the airlock.

Marrying because you sex drive kicks in, is like buying a White Castle (if they can’t be bought, then just please roll with the metaphor), because you have cravings for their burgers.  Base your life around biological urges, and you will get played by factors in the world, and have no identity of your own.

If you want/need those love feelings so bad, take some MDMA and jerk off. Exact same thing as being with a female in love.
