I think you need to look at what I'm saying form a different point of view. I am telling him to have some respect for himself. Be the better person in this situation. Take the high road. Don't be a person who takes advantage. Be a person who values themselves and can walk away from someone who is obviously toxic, not because they are hurtful, but because their values aren't to his high standards. Don't be AFC... meaning have high standards, expect respect. But know it takes giving respect to receive respect. That is why so much of PUA tactics result in women only sticking around for a few weeks. Most of it is disrespectful and will net you no respect from the girl you're pursuing. By being a man, realizing she's toxic to your life and nipping this in the butt. You are being alpha and stepping out of your chump shoes.
Stop trying to be a Pick up Artist and start trying to be an attractive man who is on the prowl for someone worthy. You are right is saying "don't put her on a pedestal". You are wrong in saying that the OP should slump his moral code just because she did.
See what I'm getting at here?
Yes, and it's a completely AFC mentality.
Sorry dude but there's a massive difference between treating women like shit day in, day out, having no regard for them and just being normal and respectful of yourself. The number one guy in any situation is you. If it's you or your friend and one of you is going to die no matter what who are you going to choose?
Your perception of "being a better person" is completely different to what being a better and more attractive person is. You need to change that frame of mind completely.
"I am telling him to have some respect for himself. Be the better person in this situation. Take the high road."
What, exactly is having respect for himself? Is it just walking away and doing nothing at all? That's subject to some debate as it is an automatic thought based on the idealisms that modern day society has forced on you.
Having respect for yourself is not letting others walk all over you but taking advantage of life as a whole. If life hands you a swanky apartment with a six figure job are you going to turn around and say "No, I respect myself too much. I won't take advantage of this." or are you going to say "Happy days!!" and accept it? Yeah, fuck that AFC bullshit of not taking advantage of situations. There's a difference between actually being a scumbag and just taking advantage of something. If the situation presents itself you should take it, if you have to do some seedy and dark, nasty shit to get it then that's the dark side of it. Know the difference.
For himself, as he should be thinking, he should be okay with fucking her then dumping and not giving a damn about her. If a girl treats you with respect don't treat her with disrespect, that's just being a dick. If a girl disrespects you then fair game but it will work against you to be a spiteful bastard, don't be that guy, just don't put effort into it and move on.
You're on PUA forums. You're presumably learning how to be a pick up artist. You need to reframe yourself mentally and physically to be one, otherwise you're going against the way of pick up. Don't be a dick, sure but don't be a pussy. You need to get rid of all those AFC thoughts and learn to think for yourself, about yourself and what's best for you within social acceptance.
