Solitude = MGTOW!

It's so nice not having to deal with women in a relationship. I see guys in shops with their partners wishing they could be anywhere but there. It's sad for them.

Couldn't agree more.

While I have developed the ability to be quite sociable, I consider it an elective/side activity usually with the pretense that it will make achieving my primary goal easier.

I could so easily become a hermit and have everything delivered and work from home but then I would be much more likely to lose touch with reality, in my opinion. So, I dive into society as much a I can stand and when I get the rare invite out from people (especially women) a "No, thanks" does the job. If they follow up with various forms of peer pressure I offer versions of "I don't like crowds and/or noisy venues." and that is usually the end of it.

The brutal truth of it that I rarely speak of is that I've come to view a good portion of society as parasites looking for their next meal ticket.

I have spent my life figuring out how to be someone useful, someone that can be relied on. Not so I can have others rely on me but that more and more I can rely on myself.

I am nobodies meal ticket but my own.

With that rock-solid foundation I can then support and socialize on my terms.

A simplification of those terms would be "I help those who help themselves". In other words, If you need a hand getting the job done right or faster I have no problem getting right in there with you. That's teamwork. That is how humans get shit done. However, If you ask me for help expecting me to do the job for you? That's a job. Pay me for my time/work or piss off.

Secure who you are and the life you want, then from that position of power you can interact with the world on your terms.

Enjoy your weekend gentlemen. I know I will.

Validation system inward, to personal success and achievement

Perhaps.

I agree with being self directed and not caring about external validation. This is required to be content as a MGTOW, and a necessary step in the successful evolution of any man who wishes to transcend the NPC condition.

However, the alternative is not automatically success and achievement. Those actually reek of male competition; to the victor go the spoiled hos.
Instead, I suggest morality. Figure out what is right and what is good. Manifest those, and you can hold your head high.

Virtue, not "success", is what a man should aspire to.
