Here I am. 33 Year old, single father. Coming out of a 6 year out of control spiral.

My life has been a series of oneitis in which I always get the short straw so to speak. Roughly 3 years ago I stumbled across TRP after an introduction to the book The Game and PUA. After some education in PUA and me trying it. I was big mad. I couldn’t believe it worked. I was disgusted with the lies I had been fed about women and love. I denounced all of it and became a bit of a recluse. Just worked got stoned and maintained a very small social circle.

Recently I’ve been focusing more on my health. Both physical and mental. I have stepped way out of my comfort zone and am socializing a lot more. Dieting, and am putting down the MJ for the first time in my life since I was about 13 years old. Taking on new hobbies meeting new people.

About two weeks ago I was on the cusp of another oneitis and instead of entertaining it in my mind like I normally do I practiced mindfulness pushed out these thoughts and turned to TRP. Started listening to The Rational Male on audible. I’m seeing now that TRP is what PUA is not. In that it’s a vehicle for actual personal change and growth. Not a facade built for a single purpose.

I checked Reddit sidebar and most of the books are not there like they were a few years ago. I need recommendations to continue down this path. Are there more modernized books I should focus on? Or will do these older books by Tomassi and the like still hold weight?
