So, I'm almost 32, and over the last several years, have struggled in my field (IT). Mostly contract jobs and such. After my ex and I broke up in 2014, I moved back home, though I wasn't living at my apartment for long. Due to the abusive nature of that relationship, I lost the apartment and job and have been trying to rebuild things ever since.

​

Anyway, in 2014, my brother and now sister-in-law live upstairs, because she got pregnant. My niece is now 4. Last year, we had to move my 76 year old grandmother back from Tennessee because my grandfather died a couple years before and he left her with nothing, so she couldn't afford to live down there anymore.

​

We live in a two family house. My parents and I live downstairs, and my brother, sister-in-law, niece and grandmother live upstairs. Four women/girls, three men.

​

Been MGTOW for a couple months now and I simply cannot help but see, hear and deal with constant bullshit from the 3 adult women in this house. My mother had a consultation for gallbladder surgery today and for many reasons, is nervous (she almost bled out last year due to other medical issues near the gallbladder area). My know it all grandmother started a fight with her saying "there is no need to be nervous" and said "I had this surgery done. Its not a big deal.".....but with my mothers previous issues, this surgery is a bigger deal as a result. My mother couldn't even explain what was said to her at the consultation because my grandmother when into instant nasty-mode when my mother's already nervous and upset. Grandmother stormed upstairs all pissy saying "fine talk to you husband about it".

​

Later, a childhood friend came to the house to visit my brother upstairs, so I went up to visit, with a plate of food for my lunch. My niece ran to the door when I knocked and my sister in law told her not to be nosy, which made my niece cry. Visited for a few minutes, went to say hi to my niece, and she gave me attitude. So I said "Don't give me attitude". My sister-in-law stormed out of the bedroom and made my niece go in her bedroom and said outloud "I'm sick of people telling her what to do. He (me) can eat out here by himself, or go downstairs and eat." Slammed the bedroom door as well. Because apparently I can't tell a 4 year old to not give me attitude? Apparently a 4 year old giving attitude to an adult is acceptable?

​

Even at work...constant drama (working a job at a grocery store for now til i find something in my field that's actually stable and not contract work). One of the women is always bitching or complaining about something. Whether it be the morning crew or me borrowing a bottle of sanitizer to clean. Constant drama.....

​

Idk, just everywhere I turn, whether it be at home or work, and the experiences with my ex's as well.....constant female drama, bullshit, attitudes, nastiness, narcissism etc. My mother and I have it out at times too because of her bullshit.....

Sorry for the rant. MGTOW REALLY makes me see women for how they are and act. Trying to hard to get my career and finances stable so I can get the hell out of here and live by myself, in peace. When I lived by myself back in 2014, even for those few months, t was otherwise so peaceful.I mean, I dealt with my ex's bullshit over the phone, at times, but when she wasn't around or bitching at me on the phone....peaceful.

​

When I think about my past with my last two exes, and the constant shit I deal with at home with the women in the house....I can't help but realize MGTOW is the way to go.
