Field Reports

lion-chasing-gazelle

For the past three years of The Rational Male there’s been a consistent presence in the comment threads of guys seeking advice for particular situations with regards to Game. Whether it’s fine tuning certain aspects of Game or a larger consensus of the guys participating in my comment threads it’s become obvious there’s a need for a dedicated page and comment thread to address these Field Reports.

So I’m instituting this page for exactly this. If there is some urgency to have members of The Rational Male community analyze your particular situation feel free to hit anyone up in the comments of my current post, but please refer them to your particular field report with a link to your comment here. I’m hoping this will alleviate the mass of posts for field report analysis and Game specific insights piled into the main blog post for any given week.

There will be some rules for this “forum” as such. I ask that you only keep your comments to addressing the field reports at hand and save your larger theoretical stuff for the main posts, or if relevant, keep the “bigger scope of things” posts to being as succinct as possible. There will be no moderation in this comment thread (spamming excepted), so realize it will be a very hot kitchen before you post. I will impose no restrictions on video links here, nor will I limit links to various, but pertinent articles.

Understand, this is an experiment for now. It’s likely this comment thread will exceed thousands of comments. I’ll be instituting new comment plug-ins for wordpress to deal with this in the future, but I may archive this page the the posts and refresh this page in the future as well. If this gets cumbersome I may simply institute a dedicated forum-style sub-site of The Rational Male to accommodate for Game specific questions.

So have at it, post your field reports and feel free to comment on the ones you have some particular insight for. Be forewarned that it’s likely things may get a bit salty at times and I expect a lot of back & forth with debate and disagreements, but that’s what this thread is for – to hash out Game particulars for your given situations.

@NNN1 glad you can easily spot that propaganda…lol and it does seem to be a recycled theme…lol This is what everything points to in the medium term for US foreign politics: Either you follow our containment policy or we’ll contain you… look again… the us is not pushing on other countries (russian trading partners)… nor is the eu… and that is bc they CAN’T (no actual leverage other than talking)… otherwise, they would… the saudis’ and oil partners just cut oil production by 2M barrels a day bc the russians asked them to…lol the eu (nato) is starting to break… Read more »

there are many points of potential failure in any complex system… That’s of course more than just true. But as the system is very decentralized I feel it might not be as bad as I thought – which was total breakdown of civilization, which is still far beyond the horizon. Gas storages are actually fuller than we ever imagined this year – and no one seems to know where that gas comes from. Gas prices are down, as well as energy prices, which could be market manipulation, or just way less demand as Germany cannot buy up as much, as… Read more »

@NNN1 – thank you, I will take a look.

@HABD – have you read a new novel called Wrath of the Wendigo (the one by Clay Martin – there are several books with similar names on Amazon)? I’ve just started it and one of the first thoughts that came to mind was “this would be right up HABD’s alley – it hits all the themes he talks about”. I sometimes lurk on forums for police and army/retired army “tactical” types, and it came highly recommended there, and I’m enjoying it so far.

@NNN1 “and can your cousin’s generator run your well pump?” Ground water isn’t found very deep here, so it’s really one of that old hand pumps. Not the super-duper all-around version with all the bells and whistles – but the best version for really independently pumping your own water in any situation. And it’s in-house, so kinda frost-safe (which is important for German conditions). this is great!… having access to clean water all year is important… do you have a plan for potential irrigation needs next spring… for all those potatoes?… hand pumping all that water would be more difficult… Read more »

@NNN1 You may want to re think your assumptions about the ability to utilise the gas that is in “storage”: https://thesaker.is/germanys-failing-stored-nat-gas-lng-experiment/?inmoderation My comment below: So basically, what I suspected, but had not properly thought through was that the entire “storage” was basically a “capacitance” operating at a lower pressure than the “King Kong” but a slightly higher pressure than the demand from “society”. The whole thing therefore, on a moment by moment (daily?) basis is not really dependent on King Kong, but over the slightly longer (still very short term – weeks?) it definitely is. I had already thought through… Read more »

Gas output capacity of our storages is a serious topic, I did some low-key research and it seems German storages are utilizing highly compressed gas (far more compressed than in the gas grid). So a huge portion of it will just be pressed out by itself. Nonetheless, storage utilities talk about “process gas” and “pillow gas”. Both in sum are the amount of gas that’s in storage, but only “process gas” can be extracted, which is a huge share of it and as I understand it is the capacity everyone’s talking about when mentioning storage capacity. Of course, pillow gas… Read more »

So is this the case where these guys are representing a fund that bought an interest in your case? And they are asking the lions share of their money through cost shifting?

So the real party has pennies invested to the dollar?

The Brits do things a bit differently. We got stung by this in my old job a few years ago when dealing with something over there. Basically, in a British court case, the loser has to pay the winner’s legal fees in addition to whatever else is owed. This changes the game theory of litigation significantly, especially since it is quite common for the legal fees to be more than whatever money you are suing for in the first place. I am assuming this is what Palma is talking about – these guys are basically telling him “settle quickly, because… Read more »

If you play this right you’ll be banging her for the next 5 – 10 years in between (probably even during) all the beta chumps she’s trying to consolidate on… and will be her booooyyyyfriends in the meantime. The boyfriends will come and go, but you can remain constant. She’s gonna say she can’t see you bc she’s got a “serious bf” and you say: “hey I’m so pleased for you, you’re a great girl and you deserve to be happy –… Read more »

You’ve said yourself the courts/judges are the wildcard. Thats the area of risk outside of your control.

That’s why settlement on terms you can live with makes sense. Trial should be used for cases you can’t settle.

Do some probability analysis and put dollar figures to the various outcomes.

That sounds all good, I think the spin behind the activity part got lost in translation.

you do need to keep her around for practice on that front right now I suspect
True, that’s probably the first and foremost reason here.

@NNN1 Yeah it probably did get lost in translation to a certain extent. But you’ll be programmed and brain washed from everywhere else. Probably no man you will ever encounter will tell you to dispose with the niceties and take her straight to the mattress. You’re only going to hear that in here. For most men it is unthinkable that this is even possible, and they will ALL tell you that you should plan some type of “nice date” to impress her… etc… if you expect anything from her.. So watch not to slide into that. Pragmatically where I’ve had… Read more »

“Anyone want to see if you can get @NNN2 to see the light here?” @NNN2 I’ve been following along your frs and first off good going man, big changes leaps and bounds. The first thing that struck me was when she #2 asked if you are a gigolo. Thoughts are she has met a few players, she is epiphany cusp, she is toying with you. You were situational alpha = best immediate choice , true betas are taking shots at her constantly but keep in mind there is her alpha ideal that she can’t materialize, that fantasy obsession unobtainable .… Read more »

Palma, It seems to me that you are trying to decide between fighting and settling. You have a good idea of how much you stand to lose if you fight and lose the case. As far as I understand, you don’t have an idea of what you could settle for, since you have not met the other side to talk yet. I don’t see how you can make a rational decision without having a settlement number to compare against the “fight” number. So I would suggest meeting them and seeing what they offer and what you can negotiate, and then… Read more »

@OTP I’ve hit them with this. Without Prejudice save as to costs. Thank you for your recent email. Its actually quite amusing when you refer to what the judge said at the hearing given that you were not there. I’m very grateful to the judge for his attention and directions. My previous suggestion that I would attend a meeting was out of respect for the judge but you immediately interpreted it as an indicator that I would settle. It was not any such indicator. I’m not expecting your client to arrive at a reasonable figure, I’m expecting them to use… Read more »

Haven’t got too much time till the next exkursion today, but to wrap up what happened on Sunday before it all vanishes in my memories: She arrived a bit late, five minutes after 4 (four o’clock was the scheduled meet time) she texted me she’d be boarding the lift (of my dorm) and then came into the door. With a bottle of wine that I carefully inspected (standing in the door in front of her) before I said “Just gonna put that in the fridge”. While that she had gone into my room and put off her shoes and coat… Read more »

Compliance Appendix to the week’s field report: I was kinda sick on Monday and am still coughing more than what’s good. Anyway I went to the campus barn Yesterday evening, ’cause I was kinda walking by anyway and my Homie was there as well. Usually the Tuesday nights are attended very poorly, but this was different. Lots of people, the room nearly stuffed. So I sit down with my two Homies and keep chatting with another dude I know kinda well. Didn’t even put off my thick winter jacket, I need to keep myself warm for I’m still kinda sick.… Read more »

Field report: On Wednesday my Homies and me had a little party and we had some fun there. The girl who made that Halloween party and whose distant friend I banged afterward was also there and kinda instantly asked wether I “had a date”, I shrug it all off in an unserious way, chat with her later. Good girl to have deep conversations, but no real sexual vibe there – we probably know each other for too long. Anyway on Thursday I rejoined the campus barn with my Homie and we’re both kinda sick still. We join his sports group,… Read more »

On my previous posts, months ago, I shared with you my lack of success with women and my situation being a 26 yo teacher. I haven’t approached as I said I would, but something happened recently. I got my first score with a student, out of nowhere. It’s been a revealing experience, and a great progress in the field, and that’s why I’m sharing here, with people who somehow care. One day I had a class with this 21 yo cutie (she’s a 6.5, pretty smile, good tits, not a great body, but still arousing). The next day getting out… Read more »

@Jason Probs on that. It feels like a long journey to me, probably to you too as well. It starts with another mindset, it goes on by internalising that new character of you and it’ll go on with applying it more and more. Field report appendix: Went to a wine tasting on Friday, with my father and we had some great fun. In the middle of the tasting we grabbed a plate with some snacks and stood to the next free table. Right next to a hot young woman, guessed she’d be around 30, still HB 7. And actually she… Read more »

@Apoc Great work. It’s obviously not ideal for a number of reasons. But I don’t even have to break it down – I think you know from your LR what the key points were and how this girl actively threw herself at you and you just about still managed to make it happen. But you’ve DONE it. Give yourself a slap on the back and enjoy the sex – particularly about how you got over the initial problem (happens to everyone sometimes) and went on to bang her several more times. Enjoy your success, don’t get one-itis or settle for… Read more »

@NNN1 *Now she didn’t get that Sauterne and I gave her some shit for that” Good on the other hand it’s really difficult to get anyway Good, the bitch will have to work for it. Anyway, She had three options, Beaumes de Venise, Royal Tokaji, or Sauternes. It wasn’t a money thing, they all price in at about £15 for 37.5cl… It was about putting her to work and keeping her in your frame, plus she’s probably never drunk desert wine, and definitely not with a flambé. It’s about imprinting emotions. I don’t know why, but last week I really… Read more »

And more shittests, just as you predicted. I shrug them off or agree and amplify where I deem funny.

My wife in past 6 months has become not so interested in sex . She’s 55 and I’m 52. I’ve approached her couple times with what she seems to have an excuse. I know she’s stressed at work and sometimes she drinks and when she’s had to much she becomes more wanting to fight and cuss me out .. We have had sex twice in 6months , I agree most is my fault cause I’ve let her get away with disrespecting me . Before marriage we had lots of sex .. Is this hormonal on her cause I’ve heard her… Read more »

Steven – welcome to TRM. As a starting point, tell us some more details about you and your wife – what is your experience with women? Is this a recent change? Etc I’m guessing you need a lot more background information before you fully understand what is going on. Start with Rollo’s first book, The Rational Male (or read some content from the Best of Year One posts at the top of this site), and you may also want to read the “Married Man Sex Life Primer” by Athol Kay if it is still available on Amazon Kindle (not sure… Read more »

I have t always had good experience with women. Wasn’t until after my second divorce , both cheated on me that I started learning and researching bout problems I had with relationships.. Women had always cheated on me and I had seen read flags but ignored them .

[Yep, thinking about taking her downtown to show her where she can get one… Have another think about what you’re trying to achieve here..] The object of the exercise was to put her to work / make her do something to qualify herself to you. It wasn’t expensive but it did require effort to find what you want. So she can’t buy her way out of it by blagging a bottle of £200 something on expenses supposedly for a customer – which is easy for her. She has to work at it. It’s not about the money.

I guess telling her to wear a nice dress would also work, right? That’s what I think I’m gonna do this time, maybe coupled with bringing a good white wine.

New report, met that older girl again on Saturday. In the week she suggested we could go out this week, her paying the food, me paying the wine – which I suggested earlier on. (don’t wanna spend much on girls, ain’t that guy) So to not loose the frame I told her to wear a nice dress and show up at my place beforehand (which definitely is a bigger detour for her) She agreed to that without any resistance, probably got her ‘gina conditioned on meeting that hawt student anytime she sees the campus. Anyway I banged her pretty straight… Read more »
