Any former PUAs/Red Pill guys manage to get married and have Christian marriages?

Hey, I was wondering if any of the 30+ guys here who basically spent their entire adolescence steeped in pickup and redpill forums managed to find God and actually get married, in spite of the sexual sins (and probably other sins) we've steeped ourselves in. I'm 36, and it feels more and more like my time has past to get married, which is probably a lie from the evil one. Still, anyone out there managed to find Christ, a godly wife, and a fruitful marriage?
Yes.

I always felt God was with me, even when I wasn't really with him. He has a plan for our lives. We must hear it, feel it and live it.
It will take hard work, just like all good things. But it's nothing you can't handle.

Many years! That was so short I almost thought it was a put on. What finally changed your skepticism on whether it would work out, was right, etc, Michael?
Thank you! Hard to describe beyond a recognition that it was God’s will for my life and hers. Our courtship demonstrated that we handle conflict well, communicate respectfully even when we disagree, and were being sanctified by our relationship. I also realized that there’s a ceiling to how far I could go with God just being an unmarried and un-tonsured bachelor. If you want to be like Christ, you need someone to “die to self” for. That’s what He did for us and what we are subsequently called to do for others. She’s the person I chose to engage in the martyrdom of marriage with and truth be told, I was already such a hermit that I knew marriage would be a bigger sacrifice for me than monasticism. I like to choose the harder path in life when it comes to big decisions like this!
