I suddenly get it now.

[ViciouscunningtreacherousParticipant 823]

I don’t know if it’s my inebriated state or if I have just given in, but now I own this. It is now clear. This is the way it is. I’ve stopped fighting the” good fight”. I care not what anyone thinks about me. I have capitulated. It is done. Castigate me for being overly dramatic as you will. I can take it. There is no amount of vengeance that I can exact to assuage my anger. It is all futile. As late to the party that I am, I must do this in front of you all. It’s like a supreme step of faith. Something fearful and exciting at the same time. I’m just done.
Oh God I feel strange! Like a loss punctuated by an unexpected win of equal magnitude. Remorse and liberation all at once. Like the peace I’ve been praying for. Not necessarily NFG, but an ease of thought. A placid place in my soul. I think I see a path for tranquility now. I bare my s~~~ freely so that others might learn and also do the same.
I think I’m growing.

For in much wisdom is much grief, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

Uh, Cheers?
Red Pills soaked in booze are a strange thing.
Happy Saturday to you.

Going your own way means you get in touch with who you are without outside expectations.

When you’ve gone your own way you feel a sense of serenity with the world around you.

It’s called ‘freedom’.

Your power to be a man is increased one hundred fold once you let go of caring about what others see you as.

Do not attempt to look at yourself through the eyes of others, look at yourself in the mirror with your own eyes and be the sole judge of what you see.

Just left this in another thread, feels like ima do it here as well now-

Soak up the sunlight friend.

And to top it off, everything you ever learned in school is a lie.

AWESOME post. Loved it.

I was 38 and walking to work on a perfect random Tuesday morning and I couldn’t stop smiling. EVERYBODY noticed , too. It was a memorable “aha” moment.

Believe me, it makes perfect sense.

Thank you for putting it down, VCT.
Have spectacular weekend.

LOL.

If I tried to bottle it in words, I supposed it was the moment when I realized I was completely done with an “approval-seeking” mentality in all facets of life. . . and where women were concerned, their rejection/disapproval became as worthless as their acceptance/approval. I was now “bullet proof”. I don’t really know how else to describe it.

Well put.

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

Outstanding. A moment of clarity when possibly p~~~ed, is still a moment of clarity. The path is yours to build, travel and enjoy without fear of diversion from external influences, particularly those of the female variety.

Your description of your “epiphany” is inspirational.

With relief from external obligations and opinions comes freedom…

Once you internalize ^^this^^, the initial red pill rage will gradually die down.

And by the time ^^that^^ will have progressed far enough, you’re at the final NFG stage reading at your own peace.

I'd rather die a natual death with a clear MGTOW conscience somewhere off the grid than one within "modern" civilisation with a big stress mark on my forehead and a couple of dozen tubes plugged into my body. Back to the plantation..? Me..? Hey, literally: I won't ever fucking kid myself...YZERLMNTSIC

“If you can keep your wits when all about you men are losing theirs and blaming it on you.”

The rest of the world around you are living their lives looking at you as a stranger. They can’t understand how you live as you do. And likewise you look at them as a stranger and can’t understand how they live as they do. But they’re spinning their wheels in a system not knowing any better. You know better, and are not spinning your wheels. Take solace in that fact, and make a conscious effort to enjoy and live your life. Don’t worry about the outsiders.
