Will lifting make me stop doing things for good looking women?
Literally everything I have ever done, in every aspect of my life, have been because of attractive women. Consciously or subconsciously.
I want out. I want to be free.
That's true for all men to some extent

Fuck a couple 9/10s and you'll get over it. Just pay for a prosti if you can't do it for realz.
It actually helps.

Feel ya bro. Books have been written and wars have been fought because of beautiful women. But without desire you wouldn't even want to leave your house. Just curious though: what stuff are you doing for good looking women?

this actually helps- ALOT. Or having a pretty girl as a roommate.

The tumblr crowd is doing a shitty job at explaining this, but they are basically sabotaging their appearances because they want to be 'more' than some abstract concept that guys strive to be good enough for, they just don't understand the guys' side of the argument, because it sucks for them too. You spend your whole life trying to be good enough for something that doesn't exist, because it's an idea, and people are more than ideas.
Lets explore this 'idea' a bit more. I think we lose our childhoods when horrible things happen to us, when we are forced to confront problems that may not have solutions (family death, hard degrees, ongoing rejection from peers, getting old). Basically when we stop believing in a simple world. I think this 'idea' is someone who can make you believe in a simple world again. Someone beautiful and compassionate and engaging, who have never experienced how truly horrific life can be. Someone, who by this definition, is still a child.
If you base your happiness on finding childhood again, I don't think you will ever be happy.

Oh for fucks' sake.. stop thinking with your balls and start thinking with your brain, you idiot.
>OP can't into critical thinking
The next time some *skirt* tries to talk you into doing something, STOP AND THINK: WHAT AM I GETTING OUT OF THIS? If the answer is 'nothing' then SAY 'NO'. Simple as that.

>lift for girls
This is a thing?
damn yo. This thread. This the core of misogyny if you let it spiral out of control.
But on some more pertinent shit it'll fuck up your life.
What works for me is that when I get that immediate pang of wanting to impress someone (esp if their someone I want to impress only because they got that ratio) I:
1st - appreciate dat ratio - life isn't worth living if you don't smell the roses
2nd - humanize them in totality
2b - by totallity I mean both good and bad and neither
2c - if you have nothing to base the humanization out of, just come up with some kind of narrative (think people watching games - any kind of narrative removes the drug like power of dat ratio for me)
3rd - live like a proper adult (mind driving the body not the other way around)
this only what kinda works for me. I still slip up sometimes but it helps to have a procedural thing for my semi-autistic ass.
Only thing that kept me sane when I was in the New York for university. Kept falling in lust/love every time i rode the goddamn subway.

Getting attractive helps a lot.
I was a fat ass and getting no pussy.
Since I lost weight, pussy throws itself at me. I did a little BDSM and now I have entirely different view on women.

Don't share the pills m8
>>41169681
But it's the last pill you'll ever need to take.
Just get a hobby instead. Hunt, fish, sky- or scuba dive, join a sports team or club, brew beer, make soap, do woodworking or metalworking, take up cooking, learn a language, travel somewhere... All this can be done with less investment (both in terms of effort expended and monetary cost) and be barrels of fun, and you won't lose so much sleep over it that you feel the need to lament it on a Manchurian horse insemination bulletin board.
