Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
If you're white,you can easily date WOC in america,depending on your location.
if you move to a area with mostly asians and whites,you will atleast get a decent gf.
White guys can also date latina women in the southwest and California.
Brits,Canadians etc can date Desi women who are very fond of white men and hate their own men.
Shitskins like me are only saved by our goodlooks,which is usually uncommon but not rare for a shitskin,and even then If you can pass as a muslim like me you will get shafted because they will never even give you the chance to really make rapport with them or introduce yourself,talk to them etc
Ironically I would be a 'white' elite in latin america.
Black guys can date white and latina women in USA easily.
Latino men can easily date latinas and some white women.
it's actual shitskin ethnics that are truly f***ed-Arabs,Persians,Afghans,Desis,Berbers in europe etc NO women want them.
These guys usually resort to arranged marriages where the woman hates them and dreams of BWC or BBC.
I think the whole 'arab shitskins and pakis are stealing muh white women'is a gaslight from the fake Bluepilled Cuckservatives.These guys will never mention the fact all white women basically today,Dream of BBC.
White women,all women hate(not disinterested,or not like but HATE as in want dead) Arab,Persian,Afghan and Desi Shitskins.
I would actually surmise that if lightskin Northern Arabs,Persians,Afghans were NOT born muslim they would be second to white and black guys alongside Castizos.
Women hate ex-muslims,they think they're pathetic sellouts and think they are Misogynists still,and also It's also a status thing.
Women hate Hindu shitskins,they think they're all misogynist rapists etc
the true rapists and misogynists in the west are Black men of course,but women follow social dictates and norms etc it's not okay to stereortpe the black snowflakes and stats on crime and domestic abuse,stds and other more scientific studies on racial psychopathy differences also are not publicized.

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
Most people don't need happier abroad or cold approach. Because they meet their partner naturally, without trying or using any kind of "formulas or techniques", becaused it's simply part of their life script. If you are a normie, you fit into the matrix and don't question anything and see everything as natural and normal. Once you are part of the matrix and agree with society about everything and live to make money and agree with the majority and see nothing wrong with the world, because you fit into it and are in harmony with it, then the matrix takes care of you. It gives you your job and function, like bees in a bee hive are all assumed their function, and you will meet your partner who is meant to reproduce with you at some point as if it were arranged in heaven by the matrix. You don't need to think or question independently because you are fully at one with reality and have no ability to question anything. This is the life of the average person.
However, if you are designated to be a misfit like us, then these things do not happen naturally for you. You are like an actor without a script. Hence you have to figure out what you want to do, and you have to "try" to pick up girls because they don't come naturally to you. Most of the time you will fail and be frustrated. But that is the path of the misfit who has to create his own way and try to become a Sigma male or else be a loser. Because we have no script. Or maybe we are following a script too and don't know it? That could be and we can't take that off the table.
Keep in mind that everyone wants to belong and fit in, especially if they are a kid. No one chooses to be a misfit. It's thrust upon us by the matrix as part of our assigned role. Once that happens, everyone will TREAT YOU like misfit, even if you did nothing wrong or said nothing wrong, simply because it's your role and who you are. Not because you said or did anything weird. That seems to be how it works, at least for me, because no one chooses to be a misfit. Everyone wants to belong. It's human nature. But there is something in us that doesn't fit in.
I explained this many times to MarcosZeitola and @publicduende. I don't get if they understand or not. They are very rigid and hard headed and aren't open to new info for some reason. Typical male ego.

You need to read my post here which explains the dominance hierarchy, something you've never heard of. viewtopic.php?style=1&f=32&t=50887&p=416618
1) "matrix" is the dominance hierarchy
2) "normies" are the dominant ones
3) "misfits" are the subordinate ones.
DON'T YOU f***ing GET IT?????

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
I agree with you, but only in part, @Winston. For who you call "a normie", things are not necessarily easier. Said "normie" probably has better social skills than most of us down here, yet that doesn't mean they won't have to work hard to get a girlfriend worth a long-term relationship, achieve professional success and financial stability, etc. These kinds of people simply have a thicker skin. They are more resilient to failure, less pessimistic, more pragmatic. They know that, in order to "fit in", they need to comply to social norms and sacrifice some of their freedoms or dreams.Winston wrote: ↑June 4th, 2024, 2:26 pmMost people don't need happier abroad or cold approach.

Life is never totally "fair" or "unfair". There are cards we are dealt with at birth, like good looks (or the lack thereof), a certain amount of intelligence, an introverted vs extroverted personality. Going from there, it's all about how well we play those cards. In fact, the metaphor I prefer is not that we are dealt cards, but given generic casino tokens, which we can spend at several different table/games of our choice.

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
I don't know why both you guys don't understand this. The way the world works is based on power. Who has it and who doesn't. And men control the world so I'm speaking about men here. All men are classified under two types: Dominant and subordinate. This is a scientific theory.publicduende wrote: ↑June 5th, 2024, 6:03 pmI agree with you, but only in part, @Winston.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_hierarchy
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_rank_theory
Dominant ones will gain more power naturally and will then have a better life.
Subordinate ones will lose power and will have to struggle and grind their way up in life to acquire some kind of money or status which will be enough for them to have a good life.
By the way, dominant ones recognize other dominant ones and ally with them. They recognize their own kind. They also recognize when someone has been born into the subordinate class and they will swiftly reject them from their group. They do this to maintain the social ranking order.
When you guys bring up "normies" and "misfits", this is from the red pill or black pill lexicon, not science.
Every country in this world has its own dominance hierarchy. Some are easier to live in (Philippines) and some are harder to live in (America, UK, Western countries).
What we've all done here is simply discovered a "life hack" by switching to a dominance hierarchy that is easier for us to live in where we have found more happiness and better quality of life.
It's that simple.

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
Those two theories are for the "normie" to fuss and worry about. A real "misfit" shouldn't care about anything else than his own benefit. Going to the Philippines to f**k a 2 different 20 year-old girls every week instead of a single 40 year-old every year is not about asserting one's dominance over a different social hierarchy. It's probably more about asserting one's defiance of the social norm who want all us home, blue-balled and slave of our 30-year mortgages.kangarunner wrote: ↑June 5th, 2024, 9:45 pmI don't know why both you guys don't understand this.

It's that simple.
I have been living in the Philippines for almost 9 years, continuously, and I can tell you that it would have been much easier to fit into British society (the one I chose to live in before moving here) or even Italian society. The Filipinos are religiously compartimentalized in terms of wealth, better if generational wealth, and their peculiar definition of success: a mix of good looks, bling and adhering to stereotypes right out of American romantic comedy from the 80s. If one is rich enough to make a dent somewhere, they will definitely not come to the Philippines. There are far better lifestyle destinations, even in SEA, Thailand for instance.
The "life hack", wherever one winds up to, is simply "to be oneself". I think that's the main difference between a normie squashed between their social norms and a misfit who doesn't mind breaking one, a few, or all of those norms.

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
Let me ask you this, where would you put me in relation to you in the dominance hierarchy? I already know where it is.....you would put me at the lowest rung. Because I've read it from you here before. So that means that you do believe in some form of hierarchy.
"to be oneself" - I don't think anyone who posts on here wants a "normal" life while our counterparts back home seem to fine with copying the same clone life everyone else has. The cycle of normies just keeps reproducing. And people like us will be the outliers.
No, the average normie has no idea about these theories and if they found them out, wouldn't give a shit about thinking any further about them.publicduende wrote: ↑June 5th, 2024, 11:30 pmThose two theories are for the "normie" to fuss and worry about.
It's funny because I've recently seen posts from 2 of my Facebook friends I went to high school with. Married, well educated, smart, have young kids, own homes, live in the same state they were born in. And they fit in and are doing well. But.....They look happy. They are living in the "social norm". So it may be that some people are happy with that life.

What you describe does not disprove that you live in a dominance hierarchy. You're just choosing the dominance hierarchy of the Philippines. Would you want to live in London and work in IT again at an investment bank? Would your working hours to be dictated by an asshole boss that you grew to hate over time?

It's not just a "life hack". It's a mental power. To step outside the box and look at situations from an independent standpoint.

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
I don't know you, I have no idea where you would be placed. My point is a different one, though: once you called yourself out of the dominance hierarchy, why should you care? You're out, you begin to live by your own rules.kangarunner wrote: ↑June 6th, 2024, 12:38 amLet me ask you this, where would you put me in relation to you in the dominance hierarchy?

Or maybe they would give 2 minutes to them and conclude that they're happy where they are. A healthy, socially well-adjusted person normally isn't judgmental: they will admit being a misfit and a rebel isn't their cup of tea but, at the same time, they won't bash on those who chose to be rebel of misfits, whether by nature or nurture.kangarunner wrote: ↑June 6th, 2024, 12:38 amNo, the average normie has no idea about these theories and if they found them out, wouldn't give a shit about thinking any further about them.
Of course, they're happy. The vast majority of them are happy to fit in. They're proud of their wives, their kids, their 30-year mortgage, their corporate jobs, their 2 dogs. They are living happy and they will probably die happy, oblivious of what would have happened if they made polar opposite choices.kangarunner wrote: ↑June 6th, 2024, 12:38 amIt's funny because I've recently seen posts from 2 of my Facebook friends I went to high school with.

But mind you: some of them, if anything because of statistics, will lose their job or their wife (and right to see the kids). Some of them might get cancer, or a bout of depression. If one is not a complete dimwit and has a grain of intellectual honesty, life will throw them more than its fair share of opportunities to rethink of their lives, their priorities, their stance towards society. Nobody can be a perceptive person and remain blissfully happy, with the humongous amount of this that's going on in the world.
From where I sit, I know that a majority of us still believes that it's always a good thing to comply without asking too many questions, that the current status quo (government, private sector, think tanks etc.) is designed to embrace them and work exclusively for their Greater Good. It's called "normalcy bias", the tendency to want to see and think only what keeps us comfortable and in balance. Some people were tipped off their comfort zone after 9-11. For some others, it was Covid, or one of the many pointless wars waged by "the only Democratic Superpower".
I know. I didn't mean to disprove the existence of a dominance hierarchy. It was just to tell you, and some others, that the "HA paradise" that is the Philippines is not at all a society where a foreigner can easily fit in, despite locals being "oh so friendly". It's a society with its rules and rituals, its boundaries and a general mindset that is at least 30 years behind that of Western societies.kangarunner wrote: ↑June 6th, 2024, 12:38 amWhat you describe does not disprove that you live in a dominance hierarchy.

It's a mental power just as much as "staying in" is a mental power. One chooses pretty early in life where they want to spend their energies: to stick to the core or thrust themselves out of its orbit.kangarunner wrote: ↑June 6th, 2024, 12:38 amIt's not just a "life hack". It's a mental power. To step outside the box and look at situations from an independent standpoint. Most people are not as evident in those who were happy to fall in line with the other sheep and get vaccinated.
"to be oneself" - I don't think anyone who posts on here wants a "normal" life while our counterparts back home seem to fine with copying the same clone life everyone else has. The cycle of normies just keeps reproducing. And people like us will be the outliers.
Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
Happiness is not a place necessarily, it's about choices, of course you can choose a place to live with certain qualities than might make your life happier - climate, women, culture - but in the end, if you go to Thailand and smoke and drink your days away in expat bars with other reprobates then you're not going to see 70 and with that you will probably die a gruesome death - is that happier abroad? Probably not.
However, if you go to Thailand and keep fit, eat healthily, don't smoke, drink or take drugs and keep away from bar whores then why can't you live out your life as happy as you would have done back home? Those choices are free for you to make but you have to make the right ones. Going abroad doesn't make life better if you continue to do the same stupid shit as back home.

As for social hierarchies - foreigners are not part of it - for a foreigner in the UK, an American will never be judged in the same way the next deputy Prime Minister (Angela Rayner) is constantly, a white, working class woman from Manchester - she is judged constantly by the way she speaks, where she is from and what she looks like which foreigners aren't judged in the same way - if you are an American in the UK (who's not Boris Johnson) - you are never going to make it to deputy Prime Minister so it doesn't matter how you sound - you are not part of the social hierarchy for anything important and it is the same everywhere else really - it doesn't matter how 'dominant' and how much of a Type A personality you are, you're not important in the grand scheme of things abroad which is quite liberating.
In China, I will never climb to the top of the ladder but I am free of expectations and the expectations locals have of each other. That's a freedom right there.

Being a permanent outsider is one of the reasons I'm a permanent tourist versus a settled expat. No life freer than that of a financially independent tourist who rents apartments by the week.

Re: Happierabroad is not technically necessary unless you're a shitskin
Being a permanently moving traveller sounds very romantic, especially if you have passive incomes and you don't have to worry about paying for your next hotel or sightseeing trip. It's not for everyone, though. Some, I dare say most, people, thrive when they feel they belong to a place. This place could be home or as far away from home as possible, yet a place to eventually settle it is. Even consummate travellers need a place to land back on from time to time.
