Poll Of The Day
I’ve recently found out my wife has been basically having an affair with a guy she works with who is also married. I’ve confronted her this weekend and she admitted everything.
While I know we need to work through this and I’m still unsure what the outcome is going to be. I want to tell this guys wife but she absolutely reluctant to allow me to do so and I’m caught in 2 minds whether to do it.

The Defeatist Ramblings From The Forever Alone Community

1. All I’ve ever wanted was just to feel what it’s like to be in love, just once.
Just once. That’s it.
All I’ve ever wanted, from the age of 16, was to fall in love with a girl who would reciprocate my feelings. I’ve wanted to feel what it would be like to rest my head on her lap while she talks about her day, to give her a loving embrace after not seeing her for a couple of days, to get butterflies in your stomach when you see her coming from a distance. To watch and laugh at shitty movies in bed one weekend, to enjoy activities that you wouldn’t normally do yourself with, to listen to a love song and see her face.

What’s It Like To Be Rich?
Most people think it’s nice to be rich because you can buy whatever you want and eat whatever you want. Want to eat a thawed mammoth? It can be arranged. Want to fly around in a working jet pack or jetski in Shaq’s backyard? That’s possible, too. Want the city to shut down an entire interstate for you and your friends to drive 200 mph on public roads? Done.
But that isn’t really what’s so great about being rich. I could eat a $2 meal in Bangkok, and it would be delicious. There’s no need to eat those $400 meals at Michelin-starred restaurants.

Mansa Musa, ruler of the Mali Empire in the 14th century, is the richest person who ever lived (inflation adjusted)
Born in 1280, Emperor Mansa Musa I was the ruler of the Mali Empire, which made up Timbuktu, Ghana and Mali in West Africa. In the 14th century Musa was worth the equivalent of $400 billion today.
What Other Choice Do You Have?

Think of an important goal you wish you could achieve.
Something that really intimidates you. Something that you haven’t begun working towards because it challenges your comfort zone.
That could be…
Getting a job (or a better job). Making more friends. Getting in shape. Writing a book. Or meeting more women – both in-person and online.
So why haven’t you taken any steps to reach that goal?
Whenever you undertake a new endeavor that makes you feel vulnerable, your mind runs wild trying to talk you out of it. Your self-doubt becomes deafening and all you can think about are the worst possible scenarios.
