I was the stereotypical 'nice guy'. I had the generic qualities women talk about 'wanting' in the one...yet before the community only had the occasional gf few and far between.
I went through a tremendous personal growth period. I've been a late bloomer my whole life and I always felt I missed out on a lot of the experiences others may have had earlier in HS or college (when I had no success w women)
I can say that the community has fulfilled that need to have those experiences I would have never imagined at 20 or 25.
But reflecting back, while some of it was to fill those missed experiences, I can say it was mainly to feel empowered and in control of where my life was going romantically rather than needing to settle and play the all to normal society game of 'settling' just to fit some society norm.
However, after getting into the community, I've realized all the tangential benefits of the community in other aspects of life namely work/business. Eye contact, body language, confidence approaching strangers in a networking situation, leading/projecting confidence so others fall in line behind me, not letting others interupt if I'm speaking( regardless of title)...on and on. Which is why you will always see me espouse the benefits of really focusing on self improvement aspects rather than learning bs routines and panty dropper openers.
Become a better man...become a better colleague...become a better person
