		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m late to the party but better late than never in this case. I learned how to identify with women very early on and it damaged me greatly. I grew up fatherless and raised by a single mom who had a strong attraction for bad boys/Alpha males. So strong was the attraction that even the regular physical abuse her and I received from these guys wasn&#039;t enough to break the spell of Alpha attraction. My mother and her friends were a sad sorority of battered single moms who although they bemoaned their state would never ever entertain the notion of leaving because, as stated in another post, they preferred to cry over an asshole than a boring Beta. You have never heard a woman enjoy sex with an Alpha as much as my mother did as many times as I did as a boy.  However, as I was a child I had no context with which to understand anything except that these men were bad and that I wouldn&#039;t be them as an adult. You see, unlike adults children are not paralyzed by intellectual considerations. They do however grasp reality through instincts which are in many ways deeper than the malleable nature of intellect. My oath to not be like those guys along with social conditioning made me into a MegaBeta. I was the protector, the friend, the counselor and the white knight. I was also very lonely, rejected and cheated on. I was very good looking, fit, intelligent and a hard worker. Growing up in the projects and ghettoes of Brooklyn and PR gave a surface Alpha aspect but once you peeled that back it was Beta down to the DNA.  I was a good looking doormat; attractive at first glance but you still wipe your feet on it anyway. So what changed? It took until my forties and having my heart ripped from my chest three times and much involuntary celibacy to stumble upon Game.  It has been a difficult, ongoing but immensely rewarding challenge to accept that all that I knew and was self defeating and to go from that to day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment doing the hard work needed to become a Man in the true sense of the word. Thanks for this blog and your work. It&#039;s best to get them while they&#039;re young but even an older man like me can still change for the better.]]></description>
