How Do You Function In A Society That Seems Like It's Trying To Ruin You?

[Bl4ckSh33pParticipant 274]

Ever since I became a MGHOW I can’t help but feel like there are a lot of forces in this world working against me. For example I REALLY don’t like drinking alcohol, yet I’m encouraged by the media, society, and any government sponsored institution to partake in doing it. I’m not a weak minded person, therefore I don’t care if I don’t gain the admiration of my peers just because I don’t want to conform to the status quo, but how can I keep my head up in a society that wants to see me fail?

I hate to break it to you, but what people call "love" is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard Morty then it slowly fades leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. I did it. Your parents are going to do it. Break the cycle Morty, rise above, focus on science. -Rick Sanchez

I feel the same way.  As a conservative libertarian constitutionalist who is also a loner, introvert, believes in the right to arm himself accordingly, believes that I should have to ability to keep the fruits of my labor and not be forced to pay for welfare for some folks who make bad decisions, and all in all just wants to be left alone while at the same time respects the way others choose to live their lives, I feel as if modern society wishes for me to conform to what THEY believe is the only acceptable way to be, regardless of what they preach about acceptance and tolerance.  Their acceptance and tolerance is really just a lie.  They only accept and tolerate when they agree with you!

I’m going with bailing out as much as possible without giving up on indoor plumbing. The less I have to do with the ‘normals’, the happier I am.

Everyone chooses his own way of dealing with this.
My way – is by being completely independent, opting out, being skeptical, not conforming, asking a lot of questions and looking for the answers.

CANCEL TV FOREVER.

Yes! Yes!
Seriously, cut the cable! Why even let this pernicious crap into your brain? Between DVDs and all the free stuff on the internet, you will have more entertainment than you have time for, and you will save a load of money.

If you must have news (I do), it’s all on the internet these days and the coverage is far better than your local TV stations ever could be. Theirs is on the net too.

Couple other things:

Don’t seek validation or engage in approval-seeking behavior, and don’t try to impress anybody.
This is all childish behavior we got programmed with during childhood and never grew out of.

If you don’t grow up – women, men and society at large will use these faulty behavior patterns to use you, abuse you and spit you out on the other end.
And you can’t blame them at that point, because this was all your fault.

Yeah, and don’t fall in traps of legal system by breaking unjust laws. They will strip you of all of your rights and make you a literal slave.

Instead of dealing with them,just let them deal with you.

I'm married to the game,but she broke her vows.

I just hang around with older people who still have some degree of common sense, people my own age (in most cases) are not worth dealing with.

Hey blacksheep, if you want to succeed against all odds you will have to figure out at WHAT you want to succeed. So just take one thing you’re really passionate about and do everything you can to succeed if you don’t know how to do it ask other people who have experience in that field maybe you can ask the people here for advice on the specific topic.

As a mid-twenties male, I have always got on so much better with my elders than my peers, since childhood.

[Guts MGTOWParticipant 75]

This is just my opinion so it might be wrong but I think once you accept that they are trying to ruin you you are empowered.

They use conformity as a control system. Its harder to herd people all going in different directions.

Hold your head up, vent to like minded men – only if you have to.  Think happy thoughts – don’t engage in stinkin thinkin – it changes your brain chemistry and hormonal glands / levels – releases cortisol – which can cause adrenaline to decrease – causing fatigue and even testosterone to drop.  I do this a lot – but I still think my testosterone is pretty high – but just plain mentally exhausted and unable to sleep well.  Don’t be that way – think about what is good in your life and don’t worry about what other people think – don’t give them that power.

Rennie, I used to exclusively do that when I was younger, after I was out of the military (I’m 29 now) and later I regretted not having more friends around my age – like I missed out on “being young” or something – a guy I knew recently died, an older friend – that’s kind of the reason we are meant to have our inner circles of people around our age – but hey, life is short, we are all here one minute and who knows who could be gone the next.  However, I want to be there for my kids, my dear kids that the state has been complicit with their narc mother in taking from me – its like the state is waiting for me to die or one of my kids, before I have a snow b~~~~ chance in hell of getting them back.  Anyway sorry for that rant.  You’d think I would’ve learned something from the older men, older cousins, older veterans and what not, like how to control my frustration with this life.  Some things they can’t do with you though, like hunting rugged and steep cliffs, – jet skiing – wake boarding – rolling.  However it is their conversation, politics, local and national, their ideas on women and children are like mgtow – you can get so much more common sense from them – old mechanic tricks – they look to the future – for us – and we have so much to learn from.  This solipsistic generation of ours that live in only the now – seem to have no respect for their elders – such is the way of the modern (un)liberals, one objective of many to dismantle the patriarchy (which is all but dead and dying) ethical capitalism

– honor among men.
