I'm 30, well, 31 in a week. Separated from my wife back in March and filed for a divorce. I'm not exactly new to game, but rather rediscovering it after a long hiatus in a relationship that turned into a marriage. See, I got into game back in 2007 when the manosphere consisted of Mystery, Neil Strauss, and the RSD crew. I did it to combat a one-itis with a previous girl I was having and to open up my options more. It worked pretty well, even though I never mastered it. I ended up banging my one-itis a few times while she was in a relationship with another dude, had some flings with other girls, and then met the woman who would later become my ex-wife. The woman I married pretty much fit the 8 signs of a keeper pretty well and I never thought it would end this way. But some things happened to her that kinda put me into a betatizing position (I won't get into too many specifics, but one was a major medical event and the straw that broke the camel's back was her dad dying at a young age six months after we hitched).
I discovered Athol Kay's Married Man Sex Life at the tail end of our marriage, when it was really beyond saving. But the reliance on game within the context of marriage re-initiated me to the game underground, and when I delved deeper into what the manosphere had become, I finally took the proverbial red pill. And that's where I am today.
Of course, I'm in a bit of a pickle right now because after the marriage fizzled, our lease ended, I took a new job 40 miles away (in shitty SoCal commute), and committed myself to a month of travel. Long story short, I wasn't in a position to get a new place right off the bat, so I ended up crashing with my folks and I'm still here working on saving some $$ (the area where my job is is expensive, so I need to build a bit of a wiggle room fund until I get my compensation stabilized at my new company, although that's starting to come around quite well). Targeting a November move date since its a cheaper month to rent, but now the biggest hurdle is that I have shitty logistics for banging. I'm still doing my approaches, working my technique, and doing altogether fairly well with it. Closing has always been my weakness game wise, and it's even more challenging right now given my crap logistics. That'll get worked out soon enough, and I'm kinda focusing on improving other areas of my life anyhow. But I must say, I'm glad to have discovered Roosh's books, blog, and this forum. Been lurking for awhile and can already tell this community is well informed on this art form. Looking forward to benefiting more from the community here and ultimately contributing my own experiences as time allows.
