I am 20 years old and I think I might join the Red Pill.

It's not the only option you have, don't let anyone make you think it is. It's for people lacking confidence and social skill so they try to make up for it by being demeaning and taking their anger out on women who they think owe them something.

What is it that you want? Do you want a companion, love, a meaningful relationship, someone who guides and supports you, loves you for you and embraces your flaws? Or do you want to put on the tough guy act, picking up one chick after another at a bar, dominating her in bed, and probably not even getting her number? Because that's probably where the red pill is going to try to lead you.

I've read it before out of curiosity and I regretted it. I can't understand how those people can function in a society with women. They call ALL women deceptive, manipulative, selfish, and materialistic. They'll tell you women are only after money and want to be shown who's boss, because even though women seem clever, they're lower and stupider than you. It would be dangerous to let that mindset get to you. How can those people have mothers and sisters?

Yes, physical attractiveness does mean a lot to a lot of people, but not to everyone. If you want a genuine relationship, a companionship, then you're going to have to find a woman who isn't fixated on looks anyway. Dating isn't always easy for super attractive people either. You might think it is when you look at them, but it's not, maybe it will make people approach them but it can't make them stay.

I can't speak for all women, I'm sure some do like abrasive guys. But "idea of becoming an asshole to everyone (especially women) is becoming more appealing to me because I've never had a girlfriend before" makes absolutely 0 sense to me. How do you think people would be more drawn to you?

I didn't find my husband physically attractive in the least when I first met him. He was a bland looking dude and didn't spark the least bit of interest. Once I got to know him I fell completely and entirely in love, and now I think he's hot as hell too just because I adore him so much. I KNOW I'm not the only woman who falls for personality. But I would have never had the chance to learn to love my husband for who he is, not what he looks like, if he had been an asshole to me just for being a woman.

People could tell you that you need to go on a quest for self improvement, but that's probably not it. There's someone for everyone, no matter who you are. Finding them is the hard part, and it is extremely hard. It involves joining clubs and events, going to conventions, meetings friends of friends, and doing everything possible to meet people.

You're only 20. You haven't lost, trust me. There is plenty of time ahead in life to find love, and you will. You'll make this work. Just don't accept defeat by joining red pill, heh. Losing respect for women won't help you find a meaningful relationship with one.
