Welcome to The Hub. This is our welcoming tribe dedicated to introducing yourself, meeting new people, and learning about new tribes.
We shut off a few ip ranges and tightened our flood rules. Should result in better performance. LMK
We've doubled hits in Sep and we're only half way through. I suspect abuse or webcrawling. Just blocked a major offender we'll see.
@Vermillion-Rx working the problem as we speak. I don't know what was slowing things down but i suspect heavy traffic maybe search engine indexing...
There's that mind-blowing movie, Badlands (1973), which Robert Hare mentions in his book about psychopathy. It's a profound allegory for the power of women in the US.
I was half joking! I always assume a typo on my end especially when on mobile. I rely too heavily on autocorrect. Guilty as charged.
But this one was odd.
Ever met a girl you were willing to drop your other plates for?
I'm wondering if you guys ever met women who were of such quality and with whom you had such great compatibility that it was worth it to drop your other plates/become exclusive?
Personally I'd like a family at some point, and I can imagine that it's likely impractical/unwise to still fuck around having young kids and would probably be willing to let go of other women.
However, that's probably 5 years away, assuming I meet the right woman.
I'm just cynical towards myself that I'll even be able to let go of the thrill of chasing tail/optionality when I arrive at that point. Because it is super addictive. I already have achieved financial independence at a very young age and pretty much the only things that are of interest/stimulate me now is being with my family/couple close friends doing cool shit, some intellectual pursuits and a significant part of my days is managing multiple women.
Guessing that quite a few veterans here have given up monogamy altogether precisely because of this & the fact that they have become so picky most women no longer qualify as anything more than plates.
Consider investing into a reliable ready reference you can pick up and study to better prepare yourself for engaging the opposite sex. I'd suggest that you get yourself a copy of Doc Love's "The System: The Dating Dictionary". Doc Love, who until his passing was also known as Tom Hodges, wrote a weekly advice column that's archive is mirrored on several mens focused sites and a podcast. His media is a bit pricey, but it's a solid foundation a guy can branch out from in RP aware circles. I'd suggest you review his advice column to decide if his view on dating and relationships is aligned with what you aspire for yourself. To save yourself a search, give this scribed link a gander to find out if his #book is something you'd like to add to your library. It should also be available on libgen.

I've been to Vimy Ridge, and that was quite moving and emotional.
Think this year I may drive across the WW1 front lines, up to the Ypres cemeteries.
My grandfather always wanted to take me there. Sadly he never lived to fulfill that. Feel like it's my duty to make that happen.
