How many MGTOWs are here? Say AYYYYYYEEE...

[waynward]

I started off my lifestyle being towards PUA. And spend a huge amount of time each week picking up women. Going to clubs, online and during the day on a mission to improve myself.

Although I don't regret that time, as it was a life altering experience and showed me how to push my limits. After studying some of the MGTOW philosophies I started to really ponder what are my goals in life. And recognized that marriage didn't make sense in the modern age and that I would be financially better off without it. And for the most part just enjoyed sex. And just went full steam with Hobbying. Where all that energy I put towards the hunt just went to my career and simplified the process of exchanging with another what I directly need and moving on and been happy since.

People always assume MGTOWs are guys who can't get women. Which is not really true across the board.

While I still get signals from attractive women to date them, calculation of the ROI just makes it not worth it. Particularly since I spent a fair amount of time and years before in pursuit of that and know the juice just ain't worth the squeeze anymore.

How many other MGTOWs are here?

Personally I still there is some moral obligation to start a family unit, the basis of western society. That being said, with the current legal framework it is one you have to enter very carefully - with a marriage contract for example - and it is rare for women to allow /want such in my experience.

At 37, I am just not interested in the majority of women available to me. Women seem to want to date up too much IE: if you are a 7, only 5's and below want to date you. I don't want to take care of another man's kids, I would rather have my own, and it's not as easy as just saying "don't date any woman over 25, bro!". I think especially since covid, more and more men either can't get anything or only are getting fat women and single moms. I am not MGTOW, just a bachelor, but there is less and less incentive for guys to settle down and marry anymore. Marriage has never been higher risk/lower reward for men, and the dating market has never before been this distorted in favor of women. We are moving towards a harem society where the top 5-10% of men are cleaning house in the dating market, and the majority are getting scraps if anything (even if they make 6 figure incomes).

Committing oneself to a MGTOW lifestyle seems like such a cynical approach to relationships that I just couldn’t see myself doing very well. It seems like such a depressive view of love and relationships.

I can understand, tho, how if you’ve had bad experiences with relationships it might seem like a logical solution. I’m the kinda person, tho, that just keeps touching the hot burner on the stove and never learns a lesson...LOL

hang in there a little longer. Once you pass 40 ALL the pussy starts showing up on your doorstep. It’s like a tidal wave, I swear.

in all fairness, most average men don’t even start to become interesting until they are 40. That’s when you really settle in to who you are and the time in your life where you say “fuck it” more often than not and you have the confidence to back it up.

Chick throwing a buddy fit and drama?
Fuck it.

want to put up with someone’s shit at work?
Fuck it.

Some old college roommate you haven’t heard from in 20 yrs calls you to ask for help moving?
Fuck it.

it’s magical and gets you more respect

Actually I've had allot of good relationships. But as I get older my needs for relationship decreased and things changed. Don't really need someone to share my feelings as I'm generally happy person. And if I don't decide to have kids then what would be the point. So only need would be sex. Which I fullfill that I more than happy and happier than I would be in a relationship.
