July 25th, 2023.
My longest serving girlfriend broke up with me over a text.
She had been a ghost for three days prior.
Then, out of the blue.
She sent the text that changed everything.
I remember that day vividly.
I felt something but I was far too detached.
Why?
Because I was expecting it.
The constant shit tests were already a warning sign.
She video called me right after.
Wanting to know how I felt by the look on my face.
I was jovial, calm and collected.
She was disappointed by what she saw.
For the next few months,
She constantly blamed for not fighting for our relationship.
But that wasn’t the real issue,
The real issue was my identity crisis and dry spells that followed afterwards.
I had been in so deep with her.
That we basically co-habited every weekend.
And you know what that means.
Every other girl that was within my orbit and showed me green light got ignored.
I wanted only my girlfriend.
Then the lesson came,
She left and so did the girls that were in my orbit.
I was alone and cold.
Months went by,
I had no piece of action.
No warm or cold lead,
No girl giving me green light.
I thought about trying to amend my relationship with my ex.
But that thought was something I knew I would never translate into action.
I knew I had to cold approach and generate something.
I tried too but nothing happened.
I thought I had lost my touch.
Maybe months of not gaming other girls had me rusty.
Who knows?
One thing was for sure,
I went months with no romance of any sort.
I was in my era of solitude.
I have had era's like that in the past.
To me, it was always an opportunity for self-reflection and self-education.
That lasted for more than a year.
I learnt a lot about myself, I improved my game and social skills.
Of course, there wasn't the kind of proof I would have wanted.
But hey,
I had to be comfortable in my own skin and frame.
Eventually things changed,
I went from having one girl to two girls then three.
It all occurred because I fixed my frame issues and improved my game.
I don't really know the moral lesson in all of this.
Maybe you can find one on your own.
Maybe it's the fact that we might have the same problem with women and different timelines to fix it.
Maybe it's our self-identity crisis and what we project unto others.
Maybe there's a lot we have learnt and have to unlearn.
I am really not sure yet.
I am still figuring things out myself and sharing what I learn with you.
Hopefully,
You can learn and unlearn much faster than I did.
