Greetings

Greetings,

After lurking around for some time, I finally signed up. I am a young lad in his mid 20s and some months ago I became aware of the MGTOW community. Since then, I read/watched something related to MGTOW almost every single day and it was on my mind all the time. Reading many comments on this forum, on reddit, and on youtube opened my eyes quite a bit. I decided to sign up now and join your ranks. Good evening gentlemen.

Some small background about how I got into this; with mainly 2 reasons:

1) My first real dedicated relationship, which is possibly also the last one. At least the last of this kind. I used to be the perfect white knight, wanted to help this poor soul of a woman to overcome her depression (and whatever other psychological issue). As I had to fight with depression myself, I sort of made it my mission to use my experience to help others and thought one day I would find that woman who would appreciate it. Well, surprise surprise, it did not work. It was awful. I will not go further into it, at least not here, as this is meant as an introduction of myself. However, I managed to break up after a bit more than a year, which still was way too late. Initially I felt very bad about it (I did not want my spent time and energy to go to waste as I value my time and effort), but after a short week or two I began to feel better with every day. She dragged me down a lot and I am still post-processing. And the red pill helps a lot with that.

2) Through a post on the internet I learned about the movie „The Red Pill“. Some of you may heard of it or even watched it. I watched it, and I thought it was very „refreshing“ compared to all the basic feminism crap you hear every day. In the end of the movie, the director said something like there is still much to learn for her, and that she knows the MRAs want to change the system, and MGTOW want to leave the system. That was the first time I heard this term. I delved into it, and here I am.

Having read so much about men having been raped by divorce and made other experiences, which are far worse than mine, make me think I am lucky to have found this already by now and not 20 years in the future. I will possibly post more in the context of other posts, but no promises, as I prefer to listen and read rather than to speak and write.

Cheers

Welcome. Have a beer (or some tea) and enjoy.

Welcome brother!

It’s an epidemic. “Debbie downers” are everywhere, and much more common than you may think.

That’s just a ploy to keep you there in THE WRONG WAY.

I saw it so often, eventually I said “look, I’m not having any FUN”. It’s supposed to be FUN. But women and their goddam “serious relationships” are toxic, negative drama on an hourly basis.

That’s what they do. It’s like they get pleasure out of it. Post-process this.

A big Welcome to MGTOW and the forums. Thank you for your intro! And have a spectacular weekend!

HAVE SOME FUN! Without her.

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

Thank you for the first initial, warm welcome!

I have not figured out yet how to properly answer to quotes of previous posts so just bear with me please:

Keymaster, about keeping me there in the wrong way and the link you posted, it was exactly like that!! In one arguement I even confronted my ex if she actually enjoys making me feel guilty (even over stupid things). She, of course, denied that. Well, in the course of the arguement it was me to “apologise” that this claim of her enjoying it was not justified. Objectively, it was not justified. There were no words emitted by her to allow this conclusion. But only deeds… And I am the type of person who values “words” a lot…
Gosh, I could rant on for ages about this relationship. But I like to keep it short, so yes, it was pretty much like in that article. My suffering was the proof that I was “into this relationship”, not me being happy…

Welcome Toxic Bird, have some fresh MGTOW water without all those petrochemical fertilizer salts from the salt marshes you been drinking from!
