Seven Years A Simp

Book excerpt: Part memoir, part self-improvement guide, part cautionary tale, Seven Years A Simp documents the author's journey from that of a shy, awkward coward who made women the focus of his existence to that of a man possessed of courage, purpose and autonomy. For nearly seven years, Chuck Valentine chased and pedestalised women. He was convinced he had no value as a person unless he'd earned a woman's approval and respect. Unable to get laid, he indulged in porn. He allowed women to friend-zone him and use him as a doormat. The only women he managed to attract were either crazy or highly unstable. And one time, out of desperation, he nearly paid an elderly Asian hooker to give him a blowjob in a hotel bedroom. Then something changed. He stopped simping and started living.
