Why does everyone get so offended when I tell them I dont want a girlfriend because it's too expensive?

DangZagnut · 2018-12-20T19:01:42+00:00

Meh. Not tell them, be the man of mystery.

Never justify anything to anyone ever.

gadabout13 · 2018-12-20T19:02:44+00:00

my son just went through that. A bunch of his friends came over..when one of the girls ( of course) asked him he wasnt dating and he said "too expensive, too much drama" you would have thought he was carrying a bomb.

Because you've just publicly revealed hat you've removed yourself from the resource pool that they depend on for survival. It's scary for them to contemplate that would even be an option for you.

"I guess I haven't found the one yet, women like you are hard to come by." smile

You have to be smooth or deal with the rough. People don't want to hear the truth, they just want to be comfortable and feel good.

"If we move in together and pool our money, we'll have twice as much!" <== I don't know how many times I was told this as a young man

Except now we know women earn 48% of what mean earn over a lifetime, so combining finances then splitting down the middle is a HUGE money transfer to women.

clybourn · 2018-12-20T21:46:40+00:00

Last time I answered this I also got the pushback about having money. I replied, “when I said it was expensive, I wasn’t talking about money. “ That shut them up.

Misery loves company.

Buchwild · 2018-12-20T19:32:10+00:00

Because you just called them all a bunch of gold diggers.

People who aren't what you just called them would just laugh.

As you can see when your words hit the mark they get very very angry.

TheObelisk · 2018-12-20T19:10:04+00:00

If they asked me i'd say, 'There's no reason to.'

MegtowMonk · 2018-12-20T21:31:12+00:00

I've said the same thing before, and women especially get very upset with you. It's because you are truthfully pointing out the monetary value of pussy, essentially calling women whores. And they hate hearing the truth.

lesterstrat · 2018-12-20T21:47:18+00:00

This topic come up at work during lunch and I was asked the same question by one of the women in the office. My response was “I have too much to lose, besides I’ve seen what my mates and some of my cousins have had to deal with during and after the break up’

Shaking her head in disbelief, she couldn’t fathom that I would avoid marriage or stay single because a few of my mates and cousins have gone through terrible break ups.

They started talking about our boss who’s apparently been married 4 times, before walking out of the room I said “ you’d think he’d have learned after the first one “. You could literally hear a pin drop as I was making my way back to my desk.

jimjames1967 · 2018-12-20T23:51:14+00:00

Nosy Aunt Gertrude: "Why are you still single?"

Our MGTOW Hero: "Just lucky I guess."

rooster-one4 · 2018-12-20T19:04:27+00:00

hehe, it's because you're challenging their beliefs

ALMOST_GHOST_19 · 2018-12-20T21:27:42+00:00

I always say "cause my wallet's fatter when I'm single."

xDwech3 · 2018-12-20T19:15:12+00:00

Don‘t spark a discussion. Just say I‘m happy with my life and to busy to have a girlfriend

Fantoche_Dreemurr · 2018-12-20T21:30:25+00:00

You should see people's face when I say "Nah I call escorts instead it's a lot cheaper"

dawoodmuslim · 2018-12-20T22:17:01+00:00

You went about it wrong by telling them its "a waste of money" rather than just saying you can't afford a girlfriend but would be more than willing to make a marginal effort to find one if they'll pledge to fund the enterprise, at say $5k a month. (Then pocket the money.)

SwoopDaWooo · 2018-12-20T20:04:35+00:00

For the same reason the people are offended when someone says he's an Atheist. Non-conformism is always punishable and be glad it's tolerated now because it was worse in the past, MUCH worse...

Sly21C · 2018-12-20T23:24:33+00:00

Just say you're still getting over your last relationship, that you're taking a break from relationships.

Fatality144 · 2018-12-20T23:57:34+00:00

I often avoid the question if I can because most answers are simply unacceptable to the bluepilled.

However if pressed about it being too expensive I ask them what the average cost is to take care of a kid. If they dont know I tell them that its at least 2 million dollars and that usually doesnt include college. This answer has worked on several occasions but ultimately you should not feel obligated to answer them. Your choice to go MGTOW is yours and does not have to be justified by those who will never accept it no matter what you tell them.

AdrianoWerneck · 2018-12-20T19:38:38+00:00

Besides that, anything you do for her has no future merit due to Briffault Law. Once you go MGTOW, its either pump and dump or monk.

OlHaggard · 2018-12-20T20:15:22+00:00

If women agreed to go Dutch then itd be worth it.

GuntherPrien · 2018-12-20T21:54:49+00:00

Because it implies that women are DISHONEST whores....best to never say anything....always leave such questions unanswered....if pressed....say: that you are "saving yourself for a woman who has the means to support you in the lifestyle that you deserve"......

They will get a good laugh, and leave you alone, writing you off as hopelessly delusional...tell their friends and family members and they too will leave you alone...

Tsukikoselenia · 2018-12-21T00:19:36+00:00

Because it implies that women are not some kind of magical thing that will make your life better and perfect, and therefore is misogynistic according to the current meaning of the word. Also, a lot of them really believe in this because they think that thinking woman is a wonder of the world will make they laid eventually. And you shouldn't compare something so wonderful with money, you materialistic pig, women have so much more that they could give you!

Don't forget that men are, in the end, the biggest romantics of the two. This, sadly enough, includes most BP men. For the other, there's also the whole statut symbol thing I'll say later.

And for the women that could say this, they see male as a statut symbol. In other words, A man that didn't have x girlfriends and that therefore isn't seen as desirable, isn't someone you're proud to know because it'd reflect badly on yourself.

Think of it like friends instead of family to make the point easier to understand. If a whore is a close friend with a man able to have absolutely anyone in his bed, she'll be proud of it abd use it as a statut symbol "because, since I'm friend with someone like that and that person appreciate me, I'm special and it means that I'm the same; someone desirable wouldn't be friend with a boring person".

Therefore, everyone try to force your hand in their own interest or because of their own misguided beliefs.

Gordon-G · 2018-12-21T03:27:51+00:00

Just have a don’t give a shit attitude about the whole thing. They’ll get the message.

MuleFool42 · 2018-12-20T22:01:51+00:00

Love this. LOL. You are just being prudent.

wildfireboat · 2018-12-20T22:26:36+00:00

Surely it's because women are expensive!

Stalwart88 · 2018-12-21T03:35:48+00:00

Do men ever ask these kinds of questions?

fasterfind · 2018-12-21T04:22:20+00:00

You'll end up paying her share of rent on a two bedroom apartment, essentially paying even more than a married guy to support her ass while she's not even faithful to you. She wants presents, but the bigger thing is eating out all the time. If you cook her a home cooked meal, she'll turn her nose up at it and make princess complaints. The only way you'll get to share a meal together is by taking her out.. except she'll want to go to nice places.

Snakerspug · 2018-12-21T05:57:53+00:00

You can also say they keep cheating on me lol

BanyoBill · 2018-12-21T06:48:57+00:00

The truth hurts.

ILoveJuices · 2018-12-21T11:35:20+00:00

In time you will know what it's like to be hated for being MGTOW. Dread it, run from it, destiny arrives.

cfuse · 2018-12-21T15:24:24+00:00

"If I wanted to experience pointless suffering that badly I'd rub a chili on my dickhole"

ApertureBear · 2018-12-21T15:25:26+00:00

Even if spending is 50/50, the total amount spent goes way up because you're buying a bunch of bullshit you don't need.

MuchIndependence · 2018-12-22T06:16:59+00:00

They're angry because women want to keep on pretending they're an asset not a liability.

Thebigstill · 2018-12-20T20:05:56+00:00

I have a girlfriend who saves me money.
