I have a story just like you all of things not working out with women and i just couldn’t work out why, but i am optimistic and resourceful and that has lead me here.
After a break up with my last long term girlfriend (i even got engaged so a lucky escape for team me). I have spent my time doing what the hell i like and loving it. I surf a lot, do crossfit, go on fishing trips, drink beer when the mood takes me and have started my own business as i have the time and the resources to do so.
I hadn’t even heard of MGTOW until a few weeks ago but this how i got here.
I had started as most men do after a certain time has passed from breaking up to think about dating again. This time i wanted to be prepared so i started looking on the internet about how women think but found the usual bs. I was no where nearer to understanding them as i thought understanding them would help me have a satisfying relationship.
On my way i came across the book called the manipulated man by Ester Vllar and i couldn’t take in what she was saying, it could not be real. Then i read The myth of male power by dr Warren Farrell and i learned about male disposability and how the feminist movement had gotten women preferential treatment in the courts and everything i thought about equality had been shattered. (all i wanted was for men and women to be equal)
Then on a forum i was reading i saw this MGTOW. I googled it and found this site.
Now after going through your videos and articles i have been learning about hypergamy and the way that women work and i have been through all my past relationships with x ray specks on, it’s like i can see for the first time. It all makes sense now.
When i was younger i used to drink and party a lot and i did alright with the ladies because i had a bit of a crazy image. Then as i got older i calmed down and i met a woman who had a young son. ( i became the provider) I admit she was good looking and the sex was good but she was also a complete hypocrite and very controlling.
We were together for 8 years is it a coincidence that she ended it when i had a period of unemployment? but in reality she did me a favor as i am now free.
I like the idea of Men Going Their Own Way and i will be going mine. This for me means putting myself first. If i meet a women then at least i know that she is looking to only benefit her and forearmed is forewarned as they say.
Hey maybe it will even work in my favor now. I’m 39 in good shape with a growing business so i know what i have to offer and i know what women are willing to do to get their hands on it. I just will be doing it on my own terms, no marriage, no living together and if they don’t like me spending time doing what i like then there is the door.
I have found my way. Thanks MGTOW for the help, guidance and inspiration.
