How do you respond to women who inquire about your marital status when they see you don’t have a ring on your finger and all of the associated questions that come with it? Is a woman asking you if you are married or not and why enough of a transgression to coldly shut them down?

More importantly, what is your strategy when called out on your single status in a setting where you don’t know anyone there(social setting like a bar) and does it differ from how you would address it with your family or close friends around? (this will be different for those who openly discuss MGTOW and those who are flying under the radar like me).

maybe it’s the stone-cold poker face I have, sheer size or intimidating looks, or something else that prevents other people from f~~~ing with me

so you’re saying you’re 22yo man and people ask you about being married?
are you making this up?

You misunderstand what I’m asking.

Being relatively young and living in a culture where women riding the c~~~ carousel until they hit the wall (using 30 as an arbitrary number) is promoted, it’s very easy to live unhindered by annoying questions about marital status or why I don’t have a gf and if I ever plan to have kids.  These questions coming from both family,friends, co-workers, and women I’ve recently met.

How do the older men here avoid becoming social outcasts from choosing to go their own way?

A 35 year old single man who has his life together and no children/wife is sure to garner questions from co-workers or work subordinates when they see he doesn’t have a ring on(women even moreso), family members, friends and women you recently meet through a friend for example or in a social setting.

Much of society(women and the vast majority of men that just so happen to be blue-pillers who are also married/have kids) expect men to either be married,  have had a child, or be actively looking for one or both.

When asked I politely inform them that I was married but now happy. I do love another woman, she’s my daughter. That’s where all my money will be going.

That does most of the time. There have been a few that questioned further until I start asking them ….

What’s your net worth? Do you believe in pre nups? Do you think a couple should keep their own money?

However, I do like to play and show them now and then how it could be. On one date I flew a girl from London to France ….. only an hour … and had dinner.

I dated her for 3 weeks until the trap sprung …..

‘When are we going to have a lovely dinner in France again? My best friend wants to come’

I mostly ignore/avoid them as much as possible. They are a huge drain on a mans life force.

I believe the best way to respond to this – is to say that you haven’t found your true love just yet. This should satisfy everyone and you won’t be lying when you say it.

when asked why I don’t have a wife, I usually respond , I do still date and am very happy. but it would be nice to have the perfect woman at home. 

Be sure to emphasize the word perfect. She will predictably ask you, what a perfect woman is.

This will  open the opportunity for chatting, flirting, and achieving whatever it is you want from this woman without risking being in a relationship with her. Because she can never be the perfect woman you describe. But, she can still be desirable physically.

Women frown upon single men. But they are jealous of men who enjoy being single. IMO.

As a 22 year old, it’s fairly easy to fly under the radar and conceal that I’m MGTOW. However, it seems as if it would only get more and more difficult to do so as you get older, especially with family and friends you’ve known over the years.

Don’t have to coldly shut them down.  I have often used the line “Well I have yet to find a woman who wants to be canonized as a saint for putting up with my s~~~ all the time”   This often gets a giggle and they wander off to other more profitable grazing grounds.

In years past I told family “I would not consider marriage until I was financially well off.”  Now that I am, I tell them that “I wouldn’t want to get married and bring a child into the world now that I’m 50 and might not be able to be there for them in the future.”

Worked well for me.

If someone asked “are you mghow?”  I would say “yup”.   However in the blue pill circles, mgtow is so far off their radar that it would never occur to ask.  Like Andromeda galaxy off the radar.  🙂

The family hens regard me as the pleasant but odd relative who never seemed to find the right woman, and then turn their attention back to the family spawns to continue their brainwashing.
