Ever been happy in a marriage?

[AnthonyParticipant 241]

I’ve never been married or dated, because I took the red pill before I had the chance to now, most women make my dick soft. So they can’t really trick me with their sex appeal anymore.

But, has anyone here before they took the red pill ever been happy in a marriage?

The only people I really see happy in marriages in my family are the women. Most of my uncles died before my aunts did, and even before that, I noticed the ones who are still alive aren’t that happy at all.

They always seem to get the s~~~ty end of the deal. I noticed even my dad took the s~~~ deals in my parent’s marriage. They only stay together now because both of them are too old to date and they’re tradcons set in their ways.

But, while I was growing up, I noticed that even in my white knight years, the men in my family that were married got degraded by their wives constantly. They would make snarky comments about wives being better/smarter/stronger/cleaner than husbands, etc.

I’ve never been married, and I never been to hell either.
But I can point to an endless pile of ashes and bone dust that were once men….
Getting married for me ( a man in the West) is tantamount to diving into a lake of fire…. I’ll pass….

Think about it, they were happy, they wouldn’t be here right?

I think no MGTOW was ever happy in a marriage, maybe the first year, before the horror show started.

I’m sure it’s nice at first. Then it gets s~~~ty. I’ll put it to you like this, who is in a hurry to get married? Men or women?

It’s always women. I don’t see men in a hurry to settle down. It’s because women get the good deal. Marriage is made to benefit women. It benefits them in court, in life, when getting the children, when getting the money, ect.

No, I’ve never met a happily married man.

Feminism is a movement where opinions are presented as facts and emotions are presented as evidence.

I was married and there were some good years. Honeymoon phase was good. The other good times I cannot say were because of the marriage. Getting my first real accounting job; buying my first home; car; vacations; birth of my sons; etc. The children were the only thing that my wife did/helped do that brought happiness. Everything else was brought about by my own hard work and would have happened with or without marriage. Technically, we could’ve had kids without marriage too but not likely.

I bathe in the tears of single moms.

I was in 3 long-term relations~~~s in my life, one of which was marriage. The honeymoon phases were good, but overall none of them were what i’d call happy relations~~~s. They just had some moments of happiness to them.

In 2 of the relations~~~s the girls dumped me. In my marriage, the moments of happiness weren’t enough to stop me from pulling the divorce trigger.

When i think about the marriages of my grandparents, aunts/uncles, cousins, siblings, etc. I don’t see any of them as happy. The best of them could be described as content, or “we’re dealing with it because of the children” type relations~~~s.

I think that’s an insane burden to take on, just because your family or society expects you to. But hey, the last i heard we were @ 12,000 members & counting.

Yes, I have been happy in a marriage (my second). She died, and the women I have met. since then are psycho babes. Trust me, living MGTOW is far preferable to marriage in the present gynocentric climate. Refer to my introduction post “Peace at Last”

I was very happy early in my marriage, and had long periods where I would at least say I was content. I’m here because no matter how good or how hard you try to fix it, the institution itself is broken.

I would estimate my wife at about 93 percent NAWALT. Sadly that leaves marriage, even to the good woman I consider her to be, to be a losing proposition.

I’m far from perfect, hyper-logical and cynical to mean in dealing the verbal death blow to her hamsters. Since redpill that’s gotten worse. If I self analyze, maybe I’m trying to make relieved when I do go for good.

I’ve said here before that I have no problems being the bad guy.

I failed to realize in my youth that I was the prize. I was going to work. I was going to earn. Little did I realize that due to feminism, that no longer meant I had to share. Road soon, Desert after.

I was married and the first year was good and then it decayed rapidly after that. By the 5th year I was already realizing marriage was a mistake and was thinking of leaving. After the 9th year I grew a pair and left.
Marriage is only happy for the woman.

Feminism isn't about equality with men, it's about leverage over men.

I have been married 13 years. I have experienced the full range of feelings. I would divide this time in quarters. Happy, content, discontent and miserable. These segments are not linear or continuous and are always in flux. So, yes, I’d say we’ve spent four solid years miserable, though not continously.

Happy times seem to coincide with her hormonal cycle in the good range, and events or purchases leading to bragging rights among her friends (a pregnancy, vacations, kitchen renovation, or even a meal at a nice restaurant.)

I chart her cycle to know when to expect good times and bad.

Emotionally, women have higher highs and lower lows than us and their moods change. The ability to create a new life and feed a baby for a year requires a lot of hormones that mess with their heads. Don’t think I’ve gone mangina on you. It just is. And there is some truth to happy wife happy life. It can be good at times.

Kind of like slot machines.

I’m thrilled at marriage, everyone else’s marriage! All I ever see from standing on the outside of marriage is the constant cycle of divorce, child custody, and RE-marriage! It’s like watching old hamburgers turned to mince meat! It’s certainly a manburger deep fry!
From my view (100,000 AGL) it’s like trying to fly a kite using a 53 Chevy bumper for a tail! CUT IT LOOSE!

Well written. I just completed a decade of my official marriage. I should have learned from my starter marriage and stayed single after the separation, but I was way too young and a super white knight and I desperately wanted to be a father. So, I waited years for the “right” woman. Plus this was years before MGTOW. Still, discovering the red pill a year ago (in two weeks) has improved my life immensely.

I have much less arguements with my wife and I take better care of me. Marriage, like life, is ultimately a zero sum game. The difference is with marriage (especially today) there is no longer really any up side for men.

I’m lucky that I still get some traditionalism benefits due to cultural and religious checks and balances. For example, although I never require it, my wife is expected to see to my meal being served at a party or outing, or she can be called out by other (especially senior) women.

Although, foreign women present their own perils, and you must be close or better to expert in their culture and language or you’ll beg to be screwed over by a Western woman instead. Foreign women are like junk bonds, more rewards but more risk.

Still, marrying in the West is the most dangerous game a man can play today, again, little to zero up side. I’m glad that I at least had the good sense to avoid marrying a Western woman.. ALL my friends who married Western women are viciously divorced.

The happiness for me is really seeing my kids grow in a relatively positive direction and enjoying the fruits of my long labor in spite of my past mistakes. It’s the difference between trying to fly a spaceship from another planet, after versus before, you’ve been given a manual (i.e. red-pill knowledge) in a language you understand.

My wife and I are civil. She does her own thing, I do mine, and with style. Starting last year, I do at least one men only trip out of state or country. It’s either with younger MGTOW friends or married or divorced retired friends.
