For never married MGTOW's

[VectorParticipant 178]

Guys, this post is for the never married MGTOW’s without kids. Please discuss your stories and how much you are enjoying life and/or enjoyed your youth making the conscious decision NOT to get married and have kids. Finances, loneliness, societal pressures, living alone and the liberation that it brings, regret, happiness, stress or not, health etc. I’m 36 years old, employed, living alone and enjoying it very much. I’ll only do friends with benefits or f~~~ buddy type of thing, no relationships. I’m curious to hear the perspectives of older MGTOW’s and how their emotional state of well being and overall happiness and health has resulted from unplugging from the Matrix.

Great Post/Question Vector; Instead of old gits like me moaning on mgtow, it is much more subjective if we enourage the younger, never married men here to enlighten all, just how brilliant life can be, if you make the right choices…..

Life is rough. I wake up at 6am and hit the gym. At 7am I come home showered and make breakfast. I watch the news from 730-830. I then go to work. I meet up with friends for lunch and again after work at 7pm and grab drinks or food. I then go home around 8pm and watch 2 1/2 hours of Netflix.

I recently broke up with ex 3 weeks ago who I almost married. Observations since Break Up:

(1) when I come home, everything is JUST as I left it…SOOO weird at first but now I LOVE IT
(2) I have SO MUCH MORE ENERGY – no energy drained in fights, no energy drained listening to whiney crap
(3) I have SO MUCH MORE MONEY – no more buying food for 2 people, no more paying bills for 2 people and trying collect $$ like pulling teeth
(4) I have SO MUCH LESS LAUNDRY – We used to do laundry together but I still prefer having LESS and doing it ALONE

The pressure to provide. If I had a wife and kid , I’d worry about money all the damn time.

Now if I get fired, it is just me.

Love is just alimony waiting to happen. Visit mgtow.com.

An observation/opinion…

Instead of using/saying the word “ALONE”, try “BY MYSELF” instead.

Here is an example…

“I went for a motorcycle ride alone.” vs: “I went for a motorcycle ride by myself.”

The first implies that you couldn’t find someone to go with.
The second implies that you DIDN’T want someone to go with.

Again, just an observation…

I don’t fit your criteria, but I want to comment anyway.

I think it’s important to note that kids really aren’t that big of an issue on their own. The issue comes when factor in women’s influence on child development and education…that’s where it starts to become so difficult.

Even for a single man, no kids, you could argue the difficulties of his life are brought on by women. OP mentioned loneliness. If that man is lonely, it’s because women have used marriage to separate men from each other. If women did not have the sway over men’s behavior in general, all men would be bonding and having a great time together. And the things we do wouldn’t be tainted with the forced inclusion of women all the time.

Honestly, I’ve noticed that quite frequently, men who have the s~~~tiest jobs are the happiest. Why are they so happy doing the s~~~ty jobs? Because they get to be with other men all day long, no woman in sight.

Ok. Then do it.

Having no nagging, never satisfied, ball and chain who has her nose in Facebook every damn waking moment is not a bad way to experience life. My food tastes better too.

Never married, no kids no regrets. I have a high aversion to risk so I see marriage as living 24/7 with a straight razor held to your throat. I really just don’t how how married guys do it.

Financially secure, no debt, no pressures, house is paid for. Not rich by any means but I live comfortably on a very tight budget. If I can do it then anyone can. We really don’t need anywhere near as much stuff as most of us think that we do.

I never get lonely but that’s due to my specific personality. I don’t miss having someone else around and I am most comfortable not having anyone else around. I actually feel bad for MGTOWs who do get lonely…

While I was skiing places like Alta/Snowbird Vail/Aspen and the North East U.S. (my backyard) other men were killing themselves over the torture of divorce, separation, false accusations, slander and a whole lot more spiritual poison!

I was doing daffies and ripping the outback while they were paying lawyers, the system, and the woman to make life worth ending in an instant!

I’d rather ski over a cliff and hit the rocks then smash my head on a tree rather than risk the thrill and excitement of MARRIAGE! Those guys take bigger risks! They’re fkn suicidal! Marriage is a deathwish!

I’ll take the tree any day!

Where’s MG-Tower?

He’s frozen solid at the bottom of a cliff impaled on a pine tree with a big grin on his face!

I’m building myself up.

[VectorParticipant 178]

Dude I’m in the same boat as you. Almost got married. Observations since living alone:

1) No fights/disagreements/arguments
2) No energy drained on trying to figure out how to impress her/romance her/keep her happy at all times
3)No having to “check in” or disclose my wearabouts 24/7
4) No having to call her all the time and hearing s~~~ when a certain amount of time goes by without contact
5) No more boring family visits and family obligations
6) No more nagging/complaining/bitching/criticizing etc
7) No more getting belittled and treated like a slave

I could keep going for hours….

[Artboy99Participant 369]

I am 52 in July this y ear, and I have been a MGTOW since 1996. I didn’t know what I was, I just made the decision that trying to be with what women are today was a waste of my time and a waste of my energy. I have never been married and I have no children. Currently I have no regrets. When I get old…we shall see.

I am like the above poster, I don’t get lonely. I also agree with all of these:
1) No fights/disagreements/arguments
2) No energy drained on trying to figure out how to impress her/romance her/keep her happy at all times
3) No having to “check in” or disclose my wherabouts 24/7
4) No having to call her all the time and hearing s~~~ when a certain amount of time goes by without contact
5) No more boring family visits and family obligations
6) No more nagging/complaining/bitching/criticizing etc
7) No more getting belittled and treated like a slave

I have to say I am far happier being alone. I was rather miserable when I was with my ex.

Im age 29, Im not sick, my legs and arms are working, I breath fresh air as I live near a pine forest. I study medicine to become paramedic/physicians assistant.
I just finished this years exams with ease, but it was tough 2 weeks. I concentrated on tasks at hand, on Pathology exam, Pharmacology etc.

Between exams, I relaxed, listened to music, took walks to the lake and took my sick black MTB to the forest near me, watched Westerns and visited my friends near the Sea.

This weekend, I was partying with my best friend who I know for 23 years now, we partied for 3 days straight at home, no alcohol, only 420 and tea + snacks.
Last day we took some bottles of water and our bicycles and just went 14 miles to the Baltic Sea. Then 14 miles back. Beautiful.
This 3 days of complete serenity and fun.

When I got home, the next day I woke up – I had a breakfast and went to a practice at hospital, had some tea there and new information.

Right now Im back, typing this from my PC at my apartment. I just had Tea and nice dinner with hot chicken wings, fresh salad and fries. After and before the dinner I was refreshing my memory, re-reading material about lung auscultation, thoracic anatomy etc.

Doctor gave me day-off, tomorrow I will hit my MTB again, and study some more. Will probably play some Rising Storm 2:Vietnam aswell. Day after that I will go to the hospital again, hopefully will have some patients to auscultate, else I got not much to do at this practice to be honest.

Summer is here. Honestly, I got nothing to do right now, got time and I should start working out again. Get in to even better shape.

Every day is a blessing.

Same, I think you can get lonely if:
– you isolate yourself
– got no friends
– no life goals
– no activity
– nothing fun to do, nothing that brings you joy.

Whole world is here to experience. I got no time to get lonely.

So true, this are some of the reasons I didn’t even date – I have seen firsthand all this s~~~ happening to my friends or people I know.

I took my time to understand and to learn better.

I never had to ”call her” and let her know where I am or what I do, never heard nagging, complaining, or got treated like s~~~. But I have seen it all happen.

Excellent post,

43 years old, never married or have children. Always have my father speaking to me in one ear, “don’t get married.”

The pressure to date was there mainly from my mom and sister to the point of seeing the misandry in their faces.

I have come to the conclusion after seeing their faces that their thoughts were ” He’s not going to escape, well will shame him into slavery!”” Yeah f~~~ that, found this website that night and learned women’s true nature.

Friends are important, lucky to have a MGTOW friend who helped guide me the last 25 years, all other friends have similar hobbies.

living a “selfish life” meaning focus on the things important to me. That doesn’t mean I don’t help others, far from it, but only on my terms.

make a good living in the medical field, enjoy my job, gives me a lot of time off.

Have no debt and own my house, a small one but big enough for me and the dog to have a yard.

Get to do the hobbies I want namely photography and scuba diving.

No woman and her 10000 trinkets

No regrets about marriage and kids

"what a waste of a life, to marry, give up your freedom, just for the hope of not dying alone. Don't get married Son."

[ScarberianMPTGLParticipant 3286]

I gotta tell you guys, it’s hell not being married. I mean, what do I do with all my free time and income? And I always see my friends when I want, do what I want when I want, I need a woman to keep me tied down and to focus all my attention on 24/7. I certainly hate visiting my(somewhat) local amusement park all the time, I wish I could just take care of a woman and spend all my money on her, y’know? Having to listen to all her complaints, trying to figure out why she’s mad, always being wrong even when I’m right and getting bitched at for the smallest thing? Oh, God, I want that so bad….

Oh, wait, no I don’t. Being single is awesome! 😀

I, Lelouch Vi Britannia, command you, all of you, to Go Your Own Way!!

[Chase PesosParticipant 2136]

29 now, went through 3 weeks of torture in my own home last year. That’s when I had enough. How the f~~~ do you not have a place to stay, a job, a high school education or money to do your own laundry and want to nag me to death?

Never again, I’m all about me now. I’m all about making my money, taking care of my dad, travelling and just enjoying time with my bros and myself.

A woman has done nothing to help me get where I am, not even my mother so I don’t see why they should reap the benefits.

MGTOW for life. Chase a check, never chase a chick.

Chase a check, never chase a chick...

Now THAT I want to add to my “To Do” List ! Sounds great, unfortunately I don’t have anything near me like that.

I was lucky to have perhaps the most compelling reason for any guy to go MGTOW when I did. I was 22 fresh out of college when I found out what happened to my brother and his wife. Married for 15+ year, great guy, an awesome father and a guy who went out of his way to provide for his wife and kids. She finally decides to confess one night that she had been cheating on him for all that time. I got front row seats to a man being broken. In one instance his entire reality was shattered to smithereens. He had always been the good son. The one who listened to my parents and wanted to make them proud. He wanted to do his Masters but he put that off when my parents told him to agree to an arranged marriage. In one fell swoop I watched a guy who was funny, laughed, enjoyed fishing and doing things transform into a guy who became depressed and dark beyond reason. If it wasn’t for the girls he would already be dead, but that sense of honor that signed him up to this life of s~~~ also gave him the one little bit of purpose which was to raise his girls, put them through college and see that they had a comfortable future.

Seeing that made me look into divorce laws. Prior to that my only acquaintance with it was watching people get divorced on television or reading about it in the news paper. Once I started looking into it, I realized how f~~~ing messed up it was. Didn’t matter that she f~~~ed another guy, she would still get custody of the kids, get half of everything he ever earned and alimony. Beyond that she would get the home and make his life a living hell if she wanted to. That pretty much ended whatever desire I had of getting married and over the years that evolved to cohabitation with a woman.

Are there aspects of a relationship I miss? Sure, I believe our biological programming is geared for that. But as I have gotten older I have also come to understand my body and its signals better, so for you younger MGTOW’s it does get better over time. It is important to have friends and acquaintances who you can talk to. That doesn’t have to be the opposite sex but it does need to be another person. For me it’s my college room mate. We still stay in touch and talk on occasion, if for nothing else just to keep in touch.

I’m 38 in October this year. I own my own house, live a life free of debt and obligations. I enjoy doing whatever the f~~~ I want when I want. Money stopped being a problem when I turned 30, a good career, a solid savings strategy thanks to people I have read over the years (Mr. Money Mustache) and the fact that I’m not shelling out money to support pussy. I currently work with a guy who is 26 years old, newly married. He was telling me about his wife wanting him to get a Louis Vuitton purse for her birthday. This poor idiot is looking at purchasing a handbag for $5000. I just looked at him and asked him why the f~~~ he would even waste money on this? His answer, well my wife loves it and it will make her happy. Thank heavens I don’t have that s~~~ in my life.

[Bestieboy666Participant 2358]

I was lucky and avoided marriage. I’m now 50. It’s sad to say I was saved by witnessing all my friends get screwed through divorce courts before I got too serious with anyone. They learnt the hard way. I also started cabbying at 25 and believe me, listening to the s~~~ coming from women for decades would put anyone off. I can honestly say I never heard one woman in their conversations ever say anything nice about their boyfriends or husbands. That was a real eye opener for me.

Women are so bad, if they changed the law so I kept the house, I still wouldn't marry one. I'd rather be homeless.
