Natural Freedom

It seems like once I let go of my soft side and started to become a better person, people even family think I'm crazy or lost for example when I tell people about my new outlook on life or new goals they just look at me with a yea whatever look or like my friend said.."its ok you want to be he-man" has this happened to anyone else?

Yep, better get used to it. And look for the good side of this.

You can be whoever you want.

Lol thanks I'm not trying to be "superman" or anything but I feel a guy should do certain things or have certain licenses..all you have is experiences you might as well do everything

Just keep it to yourself...everytime you say something, normal people...including your family, will transform into Matrix Agents right before your eyes and attempt to reinsert you. You have enough to deal with to make the road any tougher than it needs to be.

People who have known you a long time will resist your changes.

They will attempt to fit you back in the box that they feel you inhabit.

This is good practice for going in under the radar, if you can be you without setting them off, then you are figuring it out.

You will set people off who know you as being in the societal model, if you make the changes too obvious or too quick. People need time to adjust.

Like the frog in the pan of water.. Throw it in a boiling one and it will jump out, put it in a cold one and heat it up slowly and it will sit there quite happily, unawares.

The Kidd and Dali are correct. 'Grinus also. Don't even bother telling anyone. There's no need for them to know. What good would it do? It'll either bounce right off of them or they'll go into hater mode.

I'm new to the mindset myself, and I haven't told anyone about my mentality shift yet because I don't really know anyone who would understand. It may sound arrogant to say that, but it's true.

It's a lonely road, comrade. I'm just starting out I am already feeling the repercussions of my choice. Remember, Buddhist monks give up all connections and attachments to become enlightened, and that includes family and friends.

You have to pay the cost to be the boss, and that includes dealing with the ignorant.

I know this might sound weird to some people but it's true I saw it happening to me all the time. There was only one guy (a friend from school) who was open to hear what I said without trying to 'reinsert me' because he already knew the real nature of women & people from a young age- so he wasn't 'an agent'.

Yeah, also there are people who have potential to see things and accept them, as we do.. I saw this in one of my friends, he struggled with girls, he got some but he didn't know what he was doing.. I saw the potential in him, so I told hi about the values, best options, Kidd's stuff
He surprised me that he saw that PUA is bullshit - Some friends showed him some PUA book - He only saw something in alpha male characteristics, so I told him my thoughts on it..
He got a girlfriend now. He's not sympish now, he changed as I did over time.. You see that gal didn't want him a year ago and I told him "As you change over time, girls may see values in you they didn't see." That was some time ago.. In the meantime he had expereinces with some girls, changed and then she got attracted to him..
He came to me and told me "You were right then !"

It's funny, how people, especially girls ask me when they got new mate, what do I think o them... I asked once why do they ask me, I've been told "You are always right about them."

We're all alone regardless of the path we choose. Sure we have family, friends, networks etc... but if everyone in life acts in their own best interest, we have only ourselves to turn to.

It's not only that. People don't really like\love you but 'your value' (the value that you bring...)
