How Many Lifetime Bachelors Do You Know?

[TwistParticipant]

My brother. For so long I just couldn’t understand, he would date, but never a hint of commitment. I always thought he was missing something.

And he was.

A f~~~ing bullet.

Now I consider him a genius.

I know a few.I guess birds of a feather flock together. As I have stated before my Mom was a super bitch and man hater and I saw the way she treated men and her 3 husbands. I had a couple of women I lived with. I would not marry them as they would make a deadly ex wife. Theses bitches would have ended up with one of us in the graveyard.They were the type to f~~~ the Judge. the DA to get away with it and fine enough that they would be hard to turn down. My Mom was that kind of ex wife. At first getting a women is the big thing. The bigger thing your daddy did not tell you about getting her to go away.I would not wish that kind of women on anyone;especially me.
I would equate women with a card game. When you find out hand she dealt herself.Your choice is all in or fold.When her marriage talk starts increase or ring talk.That is your tell to walk away

Not too many. Me, for example.

Then there is one guy my parents knew when I was a teenager: the guy was is in his late forties, had a well-paying job, no wife/gf, no kids, drove an old economy car, dressed very simply, very quiet too. I assume he was a millionaire AND was as happy as one could be.

I didn’t know I would walk the same path as him, but I related to him and admired him.

Other than that (maybe it’s the area I live in), everybody else is getting married and pumping out babies like crazy. Just making more and more people who will live short stressful lives. They don’t seem to see the concrete blocks at the end of the freeway.

Beside myself, I have known quite a few lifetime bachelors, but never counted them. Two of our neighbors in my youth were young bachelors, but made the deadly mistake of hiring a young woman to “keep house” while they ran their farm. I don’t need to tell most of you how badly that turned out.

The older you become the less desire you will have to marry. As the sex drive decreases the wisdom obtained increases. Once someone gets used to the freedom and peace of being single it’s very hard to convince someone to settle down.

Imagine being 50 years old and getting married for the first time. Rarely, does that happen… not because men can’t find anyone but rather choose to avoid the drama that is modern day slavery.

Agreed. I think that being single for a long period of time when young gives us a lot of quiet time to gain such wisdom. Like a positive vicious circle. The more quiet time you have, the more quiet time you want.

^^^This!
You have to go monk when you are young.

Once your big head rules over your little head, you usually won’t be stupid enough anymore to get married or reproduce.

You can then look back on your youth well spent working on yourself and accumulating skills and ressources.

It’s a wonderful feeling!!!

AND this ties into what has been said many times here before as well. The only thing they offer is sex; if they had other positive attributes (mainly expected of men), then sex aside, men are logical and would see great benefit to getting married regardless of sex.

Hell, even if they had ONE positive attribute other than sex, some men would marry them. And calling sex a positive attribute is also a large reach because of the way woemn use it. Its mutually beneficial, but they choose to use it like a tool or weapon.

I’m a confirmed bachelor, 52 never married, no kids and life is bliss.

Funniest moment was when I was in my 30’s and my Sister ranted at me that I was “selfish” because I was making lots of money and I wouldn’t settle down and find a woman to give my money too…

I love my Sister but the Sisterhood has a really powerful hold over all the women and they hate to see a man having fun.

The older I get the less desirable I am to women. It’s a fact.

How many men do you know who wish they were lifetime bachelors?

I’ve had many more married men tell me to never get married than ever tell me to get married. My family accepts my choice and agrees with it even the women in my family. There is still the occasional attempt by a Hive to set me up with a female parasite, but I dispatch them with grace.

That alone says it all.

What’s theirs is theirs, and what’s yours is theirs too.

what’s your definition of a lifetime bachelor? Simply never married?

Yes. A man who spent his whole life without getting married.

Specifically: Single men with no kids.

Never-married, bachelor dads are included, though.

That’s the truth.

Just me. I had “lifelong bachelor” friends before I moved to this state (I’m 26 now), but seeing as we were 20 that wasn’t so surprising. HOWEVER, I did know quite a few people that had absolutely NO desire to even DATE a woman. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were still single.

I’m single, never been on a date or had sex. I just had no desire to (I still don’t). I’ve got better things to do than waste time trying to appeal to some c~~~. With all the great porn and sex toys out there, there’s really nothing women can offer me anyway.

My great uncle was a MGTOW. My Dad still tells me stories of going to his home as a child and “Uncle Dan” giving him a dollar because they couldn’t hang out because one of his lady friends were visiting. This was in the early 50’s and very frowned upon. Uncle Dan didn’t care, had a lot of money, and lady friends according to family folk lore. RIP Uncle Dan!

[505vikingoParticipant 521]

My great uncle was MGTOW full on. Uncle Dan never married, had no kids, and had a lot of lady friends according to my Dad. He was always happy, wealthy, and did whatever he wanted. My Dad would go to visit him at his home, and Uncle Dan would give my Dad a dollar for coming over to visit. My Dad had to leave right away though, because at the time fornicating was highly frowned upon by family and society. A dollar at the time (early 50’s) was a lot of $ to a young kid. RIP Uncle Dan!

Never said getting old is lonely. At least not any more lonely than the daily routine of a married man.

And one is enough.

If you ever feel alone just read some Kierkergaard:

“Marry and you will regret it, don’t marry and you will also regret it, marry or don’t marry and you will regret it.”

It makes me realise there’s no point worrying about whether you feel alone. Another method is to watch miserable married men or listen to the horror stories, it’s a schadenfreude way of feeling free. Viktor Frankl used a similar technique to feel good about his situation, while in concentration camps. He saw people without food and his piece of stale bread was all the tastier.
