    For f~~~’s sake…

    Next Saturday a wedding will take place. One of my best friends is going down. I feel like s~~~. I’ve fed him some red pills here and there, and although he is a very intelligent and talented dude, he persists. He just doesn’t get it. Dude’s been through the divorce grinder already, and apperently didn’t learn the AWALT lesson. In his defense, his soon to be wife earns way more then he is (He’s still a very good and loyal friend, so I don’t necessarily feel the need to s~~~-talk about him. But still, what the f~~~!)

    Worse even: I, Moker, was asked to be the f~~~ing best man… I did accept, plotting to ruin the wedding with a destructive red pill speech. That would be cool. But this ain’t the movies and I really like this dude. Sure, I will poke the dragon with some slight remarks in my speech (wich I’ll have to write soon. I do my best work under pressure.) but this friendship means more to me than a glorious mgtow moment and being ostracised for the rest of my life from these people I like. Gynocentric as they are.

    Wish me luck brethren, in the lion’s den wich I’m about to enter.

    Luckily it’s not me getting married…

    Really, for f~~~’s sake!!

    My best friend told me last weekend he is proposing to his gf next month.

    I do like his gf, but know what marriage will bring about
    I told him to get a prenup signed (he’s very wealthy), but he said ‘no’
    He asked me to be the best man with another one of our friends.

    It’s going to be a sad day for me

    Hang in their brother, I hope the marriage sting doesn’t harm your friend that badly

    I visited forementioned friend last weekend and saw some information concerning pre-nuptial agreements on the living room table, so I guess that’s settled. I don’t think they’ll have kids, since he has a few sons already and she is too old. And, as I mentioned before, she makes way more money then he is. What I’m concerned about is his mental health in the long run. Now, that’s of course his problem, not mine. But I hate to see my friends suffer.

    You owe it to him to bail—if he questions you on this ask him the following: If you wanted to commit suicide and asked me for a gun should I give it to you….as a friend.

    That is some deep MGHOW Pete. +100. I never thought of it this way. I won’t forget it.

    Best of luck to you Moker. You have a difficult speech to write.

    You have tried, let’s hope it does not kill him when she changes her mind and walks away.

    You can hold a wake after he goes on the honeymoon. You may never see him again…

    I did, PistolPete, I did. I didn’t get through the “romantic” ideas. He thinks I’m just “bitter” and “haven’t met the right woman yet”.

    There is only so much I can do. It is his choice. I could break the friendship over this but when his marriage goes down the s~~~ter, who does he have for support? Probably me.

    Though I understand your decision, I’m with Pete here. Agreeing to be the best man implicitly condones the marriage contract. Best of luck with whatever you end up doing.

    Yeah, I get what you’re saying. I would have shown some big brass b~~~~ if I’d declined the role of best man. That would’ve also ruined a life-long friendship, so I was in a kind of a tight spot there. That’s no excuse though, I take responsibility for my actions. My grievences about this situations were told, my friend held on to the original plan (getting married, me being best man) and that’s what is about to happen. The only one who can bail out is me. I could just not show up. I thought about that, because (although it’s not my marriage) this is going to be a cringe-fest. Like any other marriage.

    Well, at least there’s an open bar.

    It’s a tough position to be in. My son plans on getting married next year, but I can’t say don’t do it as I’ll see him the rest of my life. All I can say to him is that not many going into a marriage think about divorce, but it happens 60% of the time. If he never gets married and never has children will he blame me for misguiding him? Possibly. I don’t want that to be something that comes between us. He even talks about his male neighbor friends who get ran by their wives and he thinks it won’t be him. I’ve talked to him about MGTOW. He came here and said something like “bunch of weird dudes”.

    I’d go to the wedding because he’s my best friend, but he’d know how I felt about it.

    It surely is a tough position to be in. I’m sure you love your son dearly, and I love my friends like they are my brothers. You can advise them as much as you can, but in the end: they make their own decisions. The moral question then occurs: do you stick to your believes and end contact with people you love or do you stick to your believes and let them face life on their own terms, letting them touch the proverbial stove.

    I don’t know at this moment.

    This could be a false dichotomy. If he won’t be your friend just because you won’t take part in a ceremony you don’t endorse, how strong is this friendship to begin with?

    I do my best work under pressure.) but this friendship means more to me than a glorious mgtow moment and being ostracised for the rest of my life from these people I like. Gynocentric as they are.

    Being a class act is also MGTOW. After all it is your character up there. This forum is the only place I share my opinions.

    The best thing you can do lead by example and show everyone how awesome you are with actions. Be the best best man he could have. Make them all wish they were you as you walk away single and sovereign.

    On the other hand, what if he’s one of the luckier ones who does have a long-lasting, loving relationship, you don’t go to the wedding, it divides the both of you for a long or short period, she ends up with him, and the relationship you had with him isn’t the same after? If you tell him what you believe, it’s not his belief, you go to the wedding, his marriage ends, you guys end up back together, he’s crying in his beer, and you give him s~~~ ’cause “you told him so” and laugh about it. Years ago, I married my best friends girlfriend and you know what…I don’t talk to her much (kids together) at all, but he’s still my best friend and we joke about it still to this day.

    Go to the wedding!

    I don’t intend to ever attend another wedding but at my age it’s unlikely (thankfully) that I’ll be invited to one of a close friend.

    I don’t know how I would handle a ‘best man’ request but I would do my best to turn it down…

    Even though they are a huge farce, I like weddings. Free drinks, music and listen to the woes from married men is entertainment to me. I’m not changing anyone’s mind about it, so why bother. They go their way, I go mine. I don’t plan on dragging anyone with me on my MGTOW journey so I have no vested interest on changing some else’s journey. It’s unlikely, but if someone really indicates they want my advice on relationships, and would actually take it, I would give it.

    If you rescue a damsel in distress, all you will get is a distressed damsel.
