In What Way Has Mgtow Saved Your Life?

open-ended question. Feel free to share your story here.

MGTOW is not a movement, it is a way of life.

[BlacqueJacqueShellacqueParticipant 6890]

Simply freedom of thought.

[JackinovParticipant 5229]

It’s saved me so much emotional inner turmoil, as well as a lot of wasted thought power and energy when it came to chasing after and worrying about whether or not I was viewed positively in the eyes of females.

When I buy clothes, equipment, something fun, etc; I don’t have a woman worrying me or telling me what she does and does not approve of. I can do what I want freely.

As a result, my life is much more relaxed. When I see the parallel that my blue pill counterparts go through, it’s a night and day difference. Every single thing they do, from hanging out to going out to eat, to buying even a $1 item has to be run through their wives and in the worst cases, girlfriends.

It’s saved my life by allowing ME to actually live and control it.

Discovered MGTOW.com roughly a year ago after a huge fight with my sister, after she pretty much called me a rapist just for breaking up with my girlfriend and not wanting to get marry her. Thought I was all alone and felt so low until that time, and that there must be something wrong with me that at 42 I didn’t want the wife and kids routine. My father told me 10 years before to never marry, but was I alone? That night after my fight, I did a search and saw someone post MGTOW in a post about marriage. Wish I Could go back and thank who ever it was that posted that.

"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."

This place has given me a new perspective. I can come here and feel all sorts of emotions while reading through your posts. I was already in my situation when I discovered this place. So, being here with all of you helps me see what’s possible. It also helps me to recognize that I don’t have it too bad here. I learned long ago that you choose to be happy or sad. Of course other people influence our moods, but a happier person will usually let negativity roll off them. There’s plenty of negativity here, but there’s so much positive influence going on here it outbalances the negative. This is a tricky world we must navigate today and I’m glad to have the resources of young and old alike to help me through it all.

It saved me emotionally more then physically for the short perm period however in the long term it will save me from the hell of marriage. I can give 3 major points that mgtow has saved me in.

1 It has saved me from marriage because marriage is a pipe dream that was made for the people of the past more the present especially with white knights in the divorce courts today who will steal your assets and bitch women who will not cook or clean. Marriage worked back in my great grandfathers and my grandfathers days however today it does not work today especially since if women are unfaithful they still get half of everything in the courts. But in fact even my grandfathers were swimming in risky waters in their days since it was the early days of second wave feminism and the reasons they avoided their divorces is that the women were not buying into it and they died too young.

2 Mgtow has taught me not to get hung up on a chick or chicks plural. This was my major problem before mgtow and even shortly after mgtow i still had this problem then over time i grew to a point of mgtow where i don’t get hung up on chicks anymore. Because after purging the blue pill from your mind you come to a point where you just say f~~~ it getting hung up on any chick is a waste of time and a waste of your mind. Now today i keep backup chicks and i try to not get too committed to them. I go weeks without texting them between intervals to not even give them hope about anything.

3 Mgtow has taught me to enjoy my only life on this planet. In the marriage cycle even if you do not get f~~~ed over in the courts its still slaving away for a woman just to please others and try to make mama proud instead of doing what you want. To where you will slave your life away for the next 40 years till you die and expect your kids to do the same thing you did but for what and why? is it really worth it just so you may get another person in your grave once your dead? what benefits does it bring? sure you can say kids but you don’t need to marry to have them so why would you need the added bonus of slaving away for a wife?

I realize from this that i only have a few decades out of out of the billions of years that life exists on earth. We humans are not gonna be here forever so why waste our time in marriage?

These things has been major to me in mgtow.

Just an east coast asshole who likes to curse, If you get offended by words like fuck, cunt, shit, piss, bitch or any racial slurs then you just scroll down.

[RennieParticipant]

Peace of mind. Most women never brought anything good to my life, just trouble and I’m glad to be done with that business.

If I had continued on with that I would no doubt have been heading for a stroke in the future.

When I was younger, I used to worry that someone was going to give me crap if I did anything strictly for myself. I thought I had to always be doing things for others.

So in my case, the MGTOW mentality came to me when I learned to say, “Mine, mine, mine.”

I lift weights at home in front of a full-length mirror. It helps keep me on track to see the muscles and veins and striations. It reminds me daily of what I’m trying to build.

Right next to the mirror is a sign. It says,
“This is for me. The following have no say in the matter:
–Bosses
–Wives
–Family
–Guilt-tripping SJWs
–Fatness and infirmity”

The sign is just a reminder. I’m not getting fit in order to be fashionable or meet the expectations of others. It’s for me. It’s mine, mine, mine.

Twostep, when you’re older all this working out you’re doing now will really pay off. You’re going to have a great retirement…barring a severe worldwide financial crisis. If only it weren’t such a real possibility, eh?

Rejecting dating, marriage, and fatherhood was one of the best reactions of my life.

I’m better informed, educated, and at peace thanks to the likes of Keymaster, Roydal, Hitman, MGtower, and several others on this site.

MGTOW was the breath of fresh air that brought clarity to my life.

[VarunParticipant 2981]

Okay, this is one gonna be a ,long one, so bored readers, please skip to the last line tl;dr if you must.

Whenever I look at that question, I get a thousand thoughts flowing through my mind. But I think I will point out the most important aspects in which MGTOW basically saved my life.

1) MGTOW taught me self-worth. Never before have I ever heard someone say “I don’t care how you are. You’re just fine. People might call you a loser, a slob, a hopeless good-for-nothing bastard….but I won’t judge you…I will never judge you.”

Apparently in the total 20 years of my life (starting from 3 when I started having feelings of self-worthlessness), this might just have been the only thing I wanted to hear.

People in every walk of life have very little positivity towards you, and a whole lot of negativity. Be it your parents, family, be it your teachers, be it the media….everyone’s telling you to ‘improve’ and ‘get to it’ or ‘step on it’…. never really do they genuinely appreciate you for who and what you are. This place did. That’s why I have a permanent affinity to this place.

2) MGTOW got rid of my misogyny. I was a hardcore misogynist. I suffered a lot of ill-treatment at the hands of girls and women in my life…..only because I kept to myself and didn’t express myself much. Now, its not like there haven’t been men who’ve treated me worse….there have been.

But the girl who told me at first grade my fart stunk and made me feel embarrassed in front of a whole bunch of friends….even though I didn’t really fart… it hurt more than it did when I suffered a full-blown punch on my chin and almost broke my jaw.

The primary reason for my misogyny was because I always wondered why girls always got special treatment…..why we boys had to get up just so that the girls could sit.. even though I really wanted to sit……. why my primary school teachers would appreciate a girl more than me…..even though we got the same marks. I also was subjected to a lot of pro-women stuff…like a radio show that stated why girls are better than boys…. simple petty stuff which I know were popular because women’s empowerment was booming….but I was only a child then. Why did I have to be told that I was inferior to a girl? I would have taken equal…..but explicitly mentioned ‘better’ and ‘superior’.

Then I came here, and saw that I was not alone…..there were men who were misogynists (not really)… though they may not have had the same reasons as me …… but I didn’t care…whatever… I felt a sense of belonging.

How did MGTOW got rid of my misogyny? Because it told me that it doesn’t matter if women are better than you. Some may say men are better.. a whole lot of us do…. and some may say women are better.

But it does not matter who’s who. You don’t need to compare yourself to other people…..its all in your head. Don’t let other people define your happiness. Don’t seek external validation. Mr. Stealthy’s posts worked wonders for me.

For ages people have been telling me that walking away is never an option… MGTOW told me walking away is as valid an option as any other.

3) MGTOW taught me life values: Basement dwellers, losers…..these are some of the things people will generally say about this ‘movement’ (its not a movement). But you just need to read through a couple posts to find that lots of MGTOWs are quite the opposite. There are active, conscious, well-mannered, just and respectful people who go unrecognized because their one view towards society invalidates all of their other views. There are a lot of good men over here (crazy, right? I know) …. some of them will outright speak against if you ever expressed ideas about ‘harming women’ etc. (I was shocked at first, but then I understood what they were trying to imply: do the right thing, even if it means going against everything you’re for).

Tl;dr, Mgtow taught me feel I’m worthy, that I don’t need to seek validation…my life is my own …and my happiness is in my hands only. This place is truly amazing…..sometimes you need only to dig through so much dirt to find a diamond!

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Yeah, the working out should definitely pay off. I got pushed into early retirement and divorced my second wife in my early 50s. I weighed 275 pounds. I could run 10 miles no problem, but I was basically obese. I told myself, “I’m heading into old age. If I’m going to get myself healthy and fit, this is my last shot.” So I’ve been dieting and working out hard for the last several years, and now I’m age 60 and weigh 200 pounds.

I have a pretty secure pension. So I’m not really worried about money, even in the event of a financial crisis.

So for now I’m focused on keeping up a hard workout schedule and losing those last 20 or 30 pounds. Other than that, I reinvent myself every year or two. One year it’s swing and salsa dancing. Another year it’s kayaking. Another year it’s hiking and biking with a meetup group.

In other words, keep it fresh, keep it fun. Can’t complain.

Like your style Twostep, reinventing hobbies each couple of year sounds a plan, thanks.

There are men on here that took their finger off the trigger once they found this place.

There lives would have ended at some point if not for the council of other men on here.

All our lives are changed for the better because of this.

We can all sleep better because our combined passion, care, love, strength, wisdom and yes forthrightness (is that a word) has talk men down from the ledge.

You don’t have to have any other reason to be here than that.

All the other good s~~~ that happens is gravy.

To hear a broken soul turn up and apologies for being beaten down is heartbreaking.

Then a while latter hear him welcome and advise another is so uplifting … I’m addicted to it.

KM has letters stating lives have been saved LITERALLY.

This man saving machine started out small be has grown to a world wide phenomenon.

There is a reason for that.

I stopped projecting male ideology on to females.

Took off the rose shades and HOLY S~~~!

The realisation that following the blueprint of society of:

school-university-car-house-career-marriage-kids-divorce-divorce raped-etc

Doesn’t have to be my life and that I can do what I want for ME. F~~~ everyone’s expectations. I never asked for this life, so now that I’m here I’m going to do what’s best for ME.

along the same lines as what your said…

the American Dream (school-university-car-house-career-marriage-kids-divorce-divorce raped-etc) is not my dream. Every human being is unique. you can’t have a one size fits all.

the american dream is simply propaganda.

MGTOW is not a movement, it is a way of life.

The American Dream was actually a marketing campaign to get people to borrow money to buy a house.

It continues saving my life.
Nothing is a coincidence.
