What do you value most about going your own way?

Pretty simple question.

For me: Doing my own thing is about control. For most of my life I feel that I was not able to make my own decisions what so ever. If I wasn’t a kid, going to collage for my mother, the pressure of being “normal”, the control that woman placed on me in either trying to get with them or being with them, having no choice in jobs I had to take because of lack of finances, etc. The list can go on. To some degree we need guidance and advice in decisions but essentially being a mindless drone didn’t make me happy at all.

So I ask anyone willing to answer: ” What do you value most about going your own way?”

I can do whatever I like within the limits of the legal rules and regulations. Any money I make is mine. All the beer in my place belongs to me. I can go to bed with whoever I like. I don’t have to fight with anyone about what TV channel I want to watch.

I think you get the picture.

The ability to make radical life decisions without having to consult another person. By having a girlfriend/wife/children you are giving up your autonomy. You no longer make your own decisions about where you go, what you eat, where you sleep, and how you act. If you think that you have control of these aspects of your life while in a relationship you are deluding yourself.

As I have told my young nephews, “I can have ice cream for dinner if I want to, nobody can tell me otherwise.”

Being able to up and go on an adventure without having to drag anyone else along or having to explain myself. I’d never be able to cover the distances I do if I had to drag a woman along.

I don’t have to answer to anyone. Except my boss occasionally.

I’ve been blessed and I’ve worked very hard and have a nice place to live. I wasn’t born to a rich family, but I got into medial school and became anesthesiologist. In my blue pill days, I’ve been called names by women whose food and housing I was providing. I’ve been threatened, in my own house, by someone I invited to live there (rent free). I used to think I was selfish if I didn’t at least try to share some. It seemed like I had so much and they had so little.

I’m recovered from that line of thinking now. The reason they have so little is because their equations are missing that magical hard work ingredient. I had an ex who I offered to pay to go to law school. I offered to pay all her bills, pay for all of law school if she would go. She was easily smart enough, but wouldn’t do it. I made same offer to pay for any other degree she wanted to get… no dice. Her plan for financial security was to have a kid with me and then use it as a hostage for 18 years of ransom money. I tried to explain to her that education is the only financial security there is, and depending on anyone else for it (including me) would basically put her one heart attack away from being homeless in the street. In our last argument over it, she threatened to burn my medical degree.

Enough. Today, she is gone. There is a line to replace her, but the air in my house is only for me to breathe!

Best thing about mgtow: Realization that the all the worst things a woman can do to me… require my cooperation to occur. And I no longer choose to cooperate. That’s the peace of mind that comes from mgtow.

Look, it's not my fault that tornado dropped a house on your sister. Now get back on your broom and get your ass out of here... and take your monkeys with you

Freedom to fail and learn!

I am responsible for myself and have been most my life… It’s not funny when your losses cripple your ability to maneuver, compounded with endless bitching from the always insecure “woman”, and leading you to personal failure. My gains were only visible to me, only I could see my future…The efforts were unhindered, and the rewards undiluted. I could give 2 s~~~s about money, it was always the sport of business that kept me going, I liked doing whatever I felt was necessary, and without the emotional swagger accompanied with spouse, or other controlling interests. No way in hell could I have made something worth while, or enjoy my life as I most certainly do!

Misery enjoys company, I do not tolerate the company of misery! Happily GMOW is the only way I know!
