I dont hate women. I never have and probably never will. However, I will never get into a relationship again. Romantic relationships don't add anything to my life.

I posted my story a while ago and talked about how hard I worked to get to college. Even when I was there, I still had to grind. I had a meal plan for 10 meals a week, and tried to fit in work so I wouldn't have 0 income. I was also taking 21 credit hours (needed to finish quickly). Needless to say, I was busy.

Now things were in general looking up until I made a horrible decision. I got a girlfriend.

Now this girl was not a monster like some of the women you guys have dealt with. I'm blessed in this regard. She cooked, was nice, and she was fairly traditional. However she was beyond childish and needy. If I wasn't devoting a certain amount of time to her per day, she would blow up my phone.

There would be times where I would tell her that I could not see her for a few days since I would be working non stop. However she couldnt understand that the fact that I had responsibilities and things to do.

She was also extreamly petty. I was once unfortunate enough to be added to a group chat with her and her friends. The next day my phone was buzzing like crazy at work. I check my messages to see her and her friend arguing about copying each other. These girls were 19 and 20. They were grown ass women behaving like kids. I was 17 and had to go off on them for being children.

After a while this shit just got draining. Life is and always has been hard. It's just the way life is. But after getting into a relationship, my life only became harder. To my mom, I was the only son that made it. To my squad, I was supposed to be the one to pave the way to a better life. My family and friends would tell me, "we're bad at school so take one for the team," (They knew I hated school). They pooled money together to help pay for my books and meal plan. I had a lot riding on me, and this girl could simply not understand that I had better things to do then shower her with attention, and browse social media.

I broke up with her and swore off relationships. I thought that maby one day, when im successful and my people are straight, I could get into a relationship. But after breaking up with her I found mgtow purely by chance. After comming here I know what happens to successful men who are stupid enough to get into relationships. You guys probably saved me from future struggle.

I also now understand why nobody I grew up with had a father. Its a pain in the ass. You married guys are the real soldiers.
