This has nothing to do with women and everything to do with life. If you will really look at what it is that makes you happy, you will see that being the shark, as you put it, will only bring you self-destruction. Once you find your own peace and tranquility with your life, you will find it in your relationships too. That starts with letting go with your ego and being the best person you can be.
Yes it does have to do with women! The whole understanding behind them in PUA is that you treat them as if they aren't as important to you as you are to them. If you want a woman you need to be assertive, be able to approach, take the opportunity to talk to them and take advantage of cues they give you.
Yes, you need a certain sense of "peace and tranquility" within yourself to be functional, this is true but it's all down to your perception to get you to that feeling. If you're certain of how you treat a woman and know you treat them fairly you will only be that person. If you, in the past, took advantage of an opportunity such as what any number of guys would do in the OPs situation you wouldn't dirty a future relationship unless you take on the persona of a person who generally does that. If you're fair minded, respectful and have respect for yourself you're able to assess the situation and take what you need from it. Respect is lost when someone does something to disrespect you, therefore you treat them differently and are allowed to. Just because you have no respect for someone and treat them as such does not mean you will treat someone you have respect for in the same way, this just doesn't happen. When you're in a functional relationship with respect you respect the person, you treat them well. If it's dysfunctional, well...
Point is just because you may have done something for yourself doesn't carry over to a future relationship, not if, at your core, you are respectful and treat others with the same respect when they deserve it. OP's GF wasn't respectful. He should fuck and dump her(Obviously HE shouldn't, he's got issues and needs to cut her out). There's nothing about revenge here. It's about what he can get out of the situation.
