I see my development as a cookie in the oven, to appeal to folks on the board. I'm still baking, not ideal to be consumed by anyone yet. Still, coming into these threads has ironically produced a large paradigm shift in me. I was burning and wanted to make changes in my life, but I'm learning a lot by actually paying attention to how modern women think, and how they cope with the same day to day bullshit that men such as myself seem to believe only we put up with. I even feel like I've come to terms with my paranoid feelings stemming from my parents' divorce and my Dad's own paranoia and subsequent failure with later marriages. He's 51 and finally got it right after three divorces. I'm happy for him, but that's not a performance I want to replicate, and I think instead of being a sperg about it, I just need to loosen up, live my life, and just focus on living by my principles, instead of just scrutinizing women for their qualities.
Holy shit, I'm passing my college classes, making gains, working in an industry with upward mobility, life is fucking good right now. Thanks, /cgl/!
