Allow myself to introduce… myself

[MyselfParticipant 353]

Hey guys.  Recently discovered this site and am really impressed with what I found.  Great website, great content, and a smart articulate community.  Hats off to all of you!

I’ve been a closet MGHOW for most of my life, but never fully accepted it as my path until recently. It seems to be a common theme, but my last relationship was extremely toxic, and it put me off women for a very long time.  I concentrated on building myself up, did the career thing and then started my own business.

After nine years of going my own way I looked around and thought “I made it. I’m happier than I have ever been.  I’m reasonably good looking, in my thirties, successful, fit, awesome hobbies, no real baggage (never married, no kids). Maybe I should look and see if there is a smart, classy girl out there. It’s now or never”.

 

So last fall I put myself out there.  I turned the radar on (so to speak), put a priority on social events to meet as many women as I could, had awesome profiles on dating sites, and just generally opened myself up. I had this idea going in that there would be lots of modern career driven women out there my age who had mature expectations. I had no idea how the online dating thing worked going in and thought it would be easy to chat and go on coffee dates and eventually find someone I clicked with. And let me tell you after a few months of playing the game I wound up incredibly unhappy and very depressed. The average woman out there is crazier than a bag of cats, and the ones who seem to have it together hold themselves in such high regard that I felt like an idiot trying to get them to even give me the time of day.  I went from being happier than I ever was to a sucker punched looser (or so I thought).  Society had me confused that “behind every great man there’s a great woman”.  What bulls~~~.  It became pretty clear pretty fast how much I would have to change as an individual (mangina) if I wanted a “classy modern woman” in my life.

So here I am, looking at a decade since my last horrid relationship.  Looking at the home, hobbies, and business I’ve built since. Also looking at middle age and beyond with total satisfaction that it is all “me time”. There is so much more to do.

So glad to be here guys.  All the best!

Welcome! I too have had my share of toxic relationships with women. I’m a slow learner. Once wasn’t enough.

Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?

Welcome ive had similar experiences to you.social conditioning had made me think i should be openminded and nawalt but after doing the online dating thing etc.ive also come to the same conclusions as you.there so self entitled and act as though there doing you a favour by even talking to you.i work out,well off financially etc.i just cant be bothered playing there game.too many come off the c~~~ carousel and want a soft arse to pick up the pieces.indifference is better option.

@myself, the same thing happened to me, I found out the truth about these modern women, their not worth the time of day, I too have NO slavery issues, I live in utter medom, my domain, my free will to do as I please! I’m happier than most guys I see bound to a woman, it’s only pussy when you think about it! Is it really worth sacrificing your freedom, just to be used as an ass wipe? Women will never get it into their heads just how valuable a man really is, until their all alone petting their cat, and asking “where are all the good men?” Women should be worshiping a man instead of the other way around, I’ll just chalk it all up to “irreconcilable differences”, as I happily and merrily go my own way. Life is good brother, welcome to MGTOW!

The title of your intro is a crack up. That movie is so bad, it’s good.

Welcome to MGTOW. You are among friends.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Most women today are absolutely ridiculous. I see so many 40+ childless women on dating sites that want children, and I am thinking to myself, “bitch, you are 40+ years old!…and look like you are 50!” The number of late 30s childless women wanting children is staggering as well.

They never mature out of their 15 year old mindset. These broads still think they are hot s~~~, and demand all kind of stuff in a man. I got a better idea for them, go to a sperm bank or whatever and raise your own kid, stop looking for a man to foot the bill. Which is all it is, make no mistake.

But that’s what it is all about, bro. They want to travel the seven seas and climb Machu Picchu on some sugar daddy’s money from 18-35 as a single, independent, empowered woman and ride as much dick as they can, then come 30-35, squeeze out a womb turd or two and cash in on the last eggs coming out of their vagina. The entire time from cradle to grave they are still expecting Prince Charming to come save them. And if they can’t have him, they fantasize about the alpha f~~~ that got away.

Welcome aboard my friend. This is an awesome community full of very awesome and supportive people. After you officially digest your red pill and your senses start to return, it really is a wonderful world to live in knowing that you have to answer to no one.

Welcome aboard!

But I have a bone to pick with the “crazier that a bag of cats” comment.  A sack full of nutty cats is welcome at and in my home any day, week, month, or year.  There ain’t one f~~~ing woman (mom excluded) welcome in my house for more than a couple hours, and most had better not even set foot on the land.

Just kidding – I know what you meant, and I got a chuckle out of it.

If you are MGTOW when you are young you have no heart.
If you're not MGTOW when you are 20 you have no brain.

Your story reminds me of mine. I got out of a bad marriage (which was so short it’s like it didn’t happen) and decided to give relationships a break for a while. Things got better, and over the years to were things were going great. I procrastinated instead of jumping back into the dating pool, but thankfully I found MGTOW first and didn’t have to really see how s~~~ty its gotten.

I didn’t think things could get better, but MGTOW showed me more. I had this dark cloud looming on the horizon like I’d have to get back into a relationship eventually. My fun hobbies, my lazy weekends, no going to crappy social events I didn’t want to attend and talking with people I didn’t want to be around… so many things I’d have to give up… as soon as I got a woman again. But then MGTOW is like “f~~~ that, you can enjoy the rest of your life and not worry about a women screwing it up ever again”. I just needed a little push to say, “yeah it’s okay to be free. In fact it rocks!”.

Now I’m as happy as I’ve been since 1st grade summer vacation, the time I think I was last happiest and the last thing I needed in my life to be happy was a girl. Ride my bike around with friends, go to the swimming pool when it gets hot, and mess around with weird bugs I’d find; I had a never ending list of things to enjoy (which girls never liked). I’ve rediscovered that freedom of having fun and not worrying about it.

Thanks a lot guys! Lots of kindred spirit here.  Before learning about MGTOW I’d justify my disinterest in associating with woman using arguments like “if a guy were to act like most women I’ve met, I would choose not be his friend” – that’s just a statement about intellectual compatibility, mutual interests, on a platonic level.  I didn’t see it so much as a lifestyle choice, or as anything necessarily empowering. Always felt a little lost, and a little suspicious that I was missing something or wasn’t seeing the big picture – but only a little. Being on my own undeniably felt right.

And indeed I was missing the big picture, but not in the sense that I expected. Knowing now that there are a lot of guys finding their own path, and realizing that not committing to a woman enables you to improve in ways not possible otherwise, has been a breath of fresh air.  I’m looking at the game the majority play with new eyes.  It has been great to read the information here.

Thanks again!

This sounds exactly like something I could have written myself. I mean, could have written, Myself. *rimshot*

In any case, it’s good to meet you, Myself. I mean, yourself, Myself. *much less enthusiastic rimshot*

I’ll show myself out now. I mean — never mind. 😡

[BryantParticipant 229]
