3 year relationship and I'm as poor now as I was at the start

Wait for the lease to run out, then walk out and don’t look back.

Dump that baggage and save that $$$!

After i became single and got my divorce, I was able to save a s~~~ ton of money (eating at home, brown bagging a few lunches for work), When I was in a relationship?, it was always for dinners, going out constantly.

You’re better of being single and being able to safe money as well. Trust me, in the long run it’s well worth it.

DON’T FK HER …. or ….. get the snip …. or wear 3 rubbers ….. & …. FLUSH THEM.

Wait for lease to end then ….

FOXTROT OSCAR

When i was married and on 120k …. I HAD NOTHING OF MY OWN.

NOTHING.

Now Im on more than that and …. it’s all mine (and daughters future).

Next month my 2 houses will be paid off.

The way I see it ….. 1 ex relations~~~ = 1 house…… and she got the 3rd one.

One simply can’t fathom the amout of money they drain ….. and I was so bluepill I thought I was a lucky guy ….. coz I got sex ….. but so did she ….. and also from another guy.

Only when you sit down and go through the bank ….. you really see how much that vinegar stroke costs.

Now that you found MGTOW, its still better than not finding out at all.

Just be grateful that, you didnt get her pregnant or got married (hopefully not)

Financially speaking on the other hand, of course she has NO problem spending other people’s money – thats called a parasite last I checked.

Theres still a way, your 22 not 62.

You’ve already done the hard work and taken the most critical step, you’ve come to an understanding. In the likely event that the relationship ceases, you will already be a step ahead. My advice would be to simply terminate the lease and relationship at the nearest practical time.

Consider the following:
You’ve made ~$10000, it can be assumed that you’ve spent at least $100/wk on her in the last year – $5200.

2015 | -$5200 Relationship Expenses -$5200 Personal Expenses | 0 | +$0 |

2016 | -$5200 Personal Expenses | 0 | +$5200 Personal Growth/Assets |

By simply substituting the relationship with a roommate or a cheaper house and by otherwise keeping your living expenses the same, you’ve suddenly got $5200 to invest in yourself.

This is an example, and only you will know your exact financial circumstances.

Finances aside, you open up a world of opportunity. While you’re living with her now; should you decide to make a change, you can begin planning. This is where you begin to make real progress. Are you interested in studying or learning a particular skill set? You said you’d like to go traveling, then go! Have you got a business idea? Maybe find a new hobby, or reconnect with old friends.

Your free time will increase significantly. You will be able to pursue your ideas, develop build and create. Your time spent on exploring your interests and carving your path through life will build a surplus of assets, knowledge and experience.

I personally consider anything draining time, resources or money to be a debt.

Here’s another way to look at it:

As of right now, she is a debt. She (and society) believes that you owe her, and as such, the debt will never be paid. This is an infinite recurring debt (which will likely grow if allowed). The time you are spending will not be repaid. The money you pay her will likely remain unpaid. The mental toll that she can/may/(will) take will not be repaid.

Should you remove the debt, you will find your resources growing instead of depleting. You can replace thoughts of “if only” or “wouldn’t that be awesome” with “when” and “how”. Your age is irrelevant, as is the time spent in the relationship. What matters is your actions and your path. A simple scenario of something vs nothing, 1 vs -1. Will you align yourself for surplus or remain in deficit?

Best of luck mate,
Dave.
