Advice for a really late bloomer?
My first post here, I've been lurking on the TRP reddit and forum for close to a year now, and I require some guidance.
TL:DR on my situation: close to 27 year old, only focused on my skills and career, never really had a girlfriend, last year I lost my V-card with a pro because getting laid was on my mind 24/7. Now I'm feeling much better, took the sex from its pedestal.
I lift and get good progress and gains, however, how do you go from here? And can I catch up to the normal guys that had their first lay at 15? At close to 27 years old, it feels like my train for getting wild sex and young experiences is on it's way out the station and all I'm left with is work and boring conversations about the weather.
Can I become the Alpha/Chad/TheGuy from today onward or I risked it all and lost?
Thanks for reading!
Read MoreIt's not so late. You have at least 20 good years of fucking ahead, maybe 30. That's, at least, the one advantage men have over women. Play your cards well, invest in yourself, invest in good buddies, follow your mission in life, be social, and women will follow. Chill.

Consider investing in 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, also known as the late Tom Hodges, wrote a weekly advice column that's archive is mirrored on several sites and a podcast. While his media is a bit pricey, it's a solid foundation a guy can branch out from, but I would also 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.
Read More@Goingthedistance I was a late bloomer too. I didn't lose my virginity until 22, but over the next 2-3 years, I made up for a lot of lost time. When I got married, I actually had committed to my favorite woman out of a rotational harem I had going. This was before the Red Pill was anything other than a prop in The Matrix. If I could do it with the limited PUA stuff that was around at the time, taking what worked for me and ditching stuff I didn't want (peacocking always struck me as faggy), then imagine what you can do with all the TRP and MRP knowledge available to you.
And like the other guys have said, 27 is still young. The only guys who think their 20s are their best years are miserable failures. My 40s are awesome so far, and I know that if my marriage ends whether due to death or divorce, I can easily go back to spinning plates. I get IOIs from women ranging from teenagers to cougars in their 50s, and usually see visible disappointment when they see my wedding ring. For all that I don't cheat, it's awesome to know that there's a whole world of options out there.
If you stay healthy and in shape and work on yourself, you will only get better.
And there's a phrase I read on the MRP subreddit a few years ago that I think will help you with your doubts about your late start:
the best time to plant a fruit tree was 5 years ago. The second best time is now.
The time is gone, and there's nothing you can do about it. However, you have a whole lifetime in front of you.

@jprdl Hi, thanks for the complex reply! You asked me some questions so I will reply.
"I don't understand. As 27yo if you are going to gym and having some career you are just what any 18-25yo girl wants. "
It's simple, I think my game is bad or non existent. I also don't really go out that much anymore, especially since each of my male friends became acquaintances thanks to getting married or getting into an LTR. Back to my game, I lack experience, don't get me wrong, I do not suffer from anxiety or have any issues talking with everyone, I can spark a conversation in the local bakery about bread with a chick with no issues. But, no experience = no success.
"What you mean about boring conversations about the weather. You can talk about what you want. " Going back to the lack of male friends or any friends, if I go out in the rare occasion and we have a sit at a table and we drink, all I hear about is nonsensical discussions about the football game, weather or some boring thing. And in that moment I feel bad, because I look at these people with their simple mindsets being happy while I'm thinking and wanting to talk about other more interesting stuff yet I'm alone and on the back row.

@Typo-MAGAshiv Thank you very much for your reply and insight. How's the married life treating you? Also you are 40? Any pains I should expect at that age? or it's like when you're in your 20's and nothing hurts?
@Goingthedistance I'm 42. People consistently guess much younger, though, because I take care of myself.
Pains? It depends on what you've done to yourself. My knees sometimes bother me because of what I put them through when I was in the Army. My hands sometimes bother me due to the nature of my current work (skilled trade). I have old injuries that sometimes bother me.
But that's life. I still move better than guys half my age because I take care of myself over all.

@Typo-MAGAshiv I understand and it's great to see that some ideas I had about moving forwards in age are true. At the gym I never ego lift, I try to protect the knees at all cost, the worst thing I believe is to have bad knees. Still, thank you very much for your insight. All that is left for me then is to go out and try having hobbies that will result in friends and meeting girls. Perhaps it's that simple?
@Goingthedistance do hobbies for yourself, that you enjoy.
Girls/women are a garnish.
