A simp is a man who is overly sympathetic towards women in the hopes these women will reciprocate his romantic feelings for him.

Simps are at best awkward guys in need of guidance, and at worst, manipulative creeps who portray themselves as nice guys until women don't give them what they want.

to get desirable women to like you. And you shouldn't be too attached to women and you shouldn't feel bad

about using women because women just try to use men anyways, so you might as well beat them at their

own game. Some men who try the red pill and fail at their goals agree that dating and romance
