[QUOTE="questor70, post: 1290284, member: 12560"] Link? And what is the age of these marriages? Recent? In this dating market? You pay attention to advice when it seems like the people giving advice have put it into action and it worked for them. In the OLD forum, people gained rep points because their notch counts seemed credible. This was true starting with Roosh himself who injected his books full of personal anecdotes. He wasn't just handing down dogma. It was field-tested. This is no longer the case. Threads like this exist because it's totally reasonable to ask whether having ideals actually works in a debased cultural environment. So I ask, who out there has put these new ideals into action and it worked? I'm not talking about people who have been married for decades. I'm talking about people who are now in LTRs and heading towards or recently tied the knot. Roosh can't claim this. He's effectively starting over with a blank slate. And unless I've missed something, nobody else here can either. I'm not saying it can't be done, but it would make sense to have a realistic view of the sexual marketplace rather than pretending things are better than they are. Nobody here is in a position to lecture other members unless they can, as Donovan Sharpe says "show the receipts". Until then, everyone here is acting on little more than faith, which would, before the forum switch, be construed as "blue pill". [/QUOTE]
