What's the MGTOW consensus on having female friends?

Tipofthemorni · 2018-08-26T17:37:31+00:00

It's not even a MGTOW topic, it's a basic fundamental rule you learn:

Never have close female friends.

If you become close to a female she will make one of two conclusions, no matter what female you're dealing with:

He thinks I'm not good enough to be his girlfriend, he will be an object of my resentment.
He isn't man enough to make a move on me, I'm going to treat him like an orbiter and get as much benefits as I can from him.

I have a few female friends but I never share my actual internal monologue with them, because women talk. The last thing I need is doors closing for me socially because she couldn't shut the fuck up.

There is no MGTOW consensus on having female friends. It's not a movement. If you are a man going his own way, make up your own mind about it.

MenGoingTOWin · 2018-08-26T17:51:39+00:00

Women don't think with logic, they think with emotion. They do not provide loyalty nor commitment, those are things a man provides. They don't want to do male things.

I've had mostly female friends in my life. It's always going to turn sexual in some regard, and you're either going to be hunted by her or seen as beneath her.

That doesn't mean you can't have female acquaintances. You just can't trust them with anything. It won't work out good for you, they only want to advance themselves and are absolutely using you for something if they are engaging with you at all. Be honest with yourself on what that could be.

I just say no. I just deal with women at work or places like supermarket (to pay). I don't engage in friendships or relationships with them:

Relationships you already know what happens
When men go out with women, men are the ones who shared the bill, women don't usually pay as if they were special and I should be greateful for having their company.

In the past I used to be a magina to pay everything for women even when I asked them out or they asked me out. Today no more of this BS, when even some of them ask me out I say NO and walk away, when they see me buying smth and ask me to pay and then they pay me back later, I say no and walk away. If someone says I have to be the one who pays bocoz I'm a man I say NO and walk away.

Saying NO and walking away are the most powerful things a man can do. Slavery no more.

As you get older, you realise that not everybody should be judged because of what group they belong to or what clothes they wear or what their tastes are. I have many female acquaintances of which 4 could be classed as real friends: the type you could call on if in need. The type you invite to parties. The type you could have an intelligent debate with. The type you go to the pub or cinema or gigs with. Not all women are vapid thots and/or feminists.

That said, I’ve had more than my fair share of LTRs and will never be going there again. EVER.

anongogogo · 2018-08-26T18:38:57+00:00

I don't care if you have female friends, but if you do, don't ever talk about anything personal. Like ever. Just don't do it because they will tell that to EVERYONE.

2018-08-26T18:03:04+00:00

If you have a low tolerance for bullshit, friendships don't usually work out with women. If it takes them days to follow up, they expect you to pay, and all the other shit tests, I cut them off. Its not worth the headache.

Chronoguy · 2018-08-26T23:12:47+00:00

I have some female friends. So far so good. Some tips:

Only women who do STEM; they seem more logical and understand rationing/reasoning.
Only women who already have a partner; so I'm not on the hook for anything money wise. Also reduces the chance of a false allegation. I'm friends with him too, and so pulling that off would be very difficult.
Keep the friendship to one sphere of influence; they are my gaming buddy, or foodie friend, hiking mates etc. This keeps them from getting too close, keeps you safe, etc. You only interact on your terms and can't get suckered into anything.

always be recording

2018-08-26T20:57:23+00:00

They aren't good friends, usually. It isn't like a male friend.

Nahh

pocket_rat · 2018-08-26T18:20:59+00:00

The way I go my way is like the man with no name. The old Clint Eastwood movies. Ride alone and don’t get close to any of them and ride off on my own. I’ll talk to females and work with them but never get close as I won’t trust any of them. You can’t.

BastaHR · 2018-08-26T20:38:32+00:00

There are no man-woman friendships.

2018-08-26T22:09:36+00:00

I can talk to women, no problem. Some of them might even become my distant acquaintances, let's say. However, the moment I pick up the hint about moving it into friendship, or, God forbid, sexual dimension, I just ghost them.

vladm007 · 2018-08-26T17:34:12+00:00

Only post-wall women.

MrDav1es · 2018-08-26T17:43:14+00:00

It's the same as befriending your dinner

Hypogamy · 2018-08-26T20:15:13+00:00

If you have any feelings for her at all don't be her friend. The friendzone is optional.

davisyoung · 2018-08-26T20:43:39+00:00

I wouldn’t say a friend but I have an acquaintance, older, married, no sexual subtext whatsoever (makes me shudder even typing it). I noticed the only time she contacts me is when she needs help with something or asks me questions about our shared hobby. I even called her on it but she persists. Time to ghost I guess.

It depends. I have only a very few female friends. Like 2 or 3. I've known them for over a decade 2 of them, and they've been very supportive in my life. But that's just my experience. I dont go out looking for female "friends"

Aegis1618 · 2018-08-26T23:47:56+00:00

I try to only have female friends on the internet and not in person and generally with women who don't live close to me.
This way, I can get some useful information and cute pics from them at no cost to myself.
When I avoid them in real life, it prevents me from being deceived by succubi...

Whirrlz · 2018-08-27T01:08:20+00:00

It's a no from me.

PrivateFinance · 2018-08-27T01:18:42+00:00

I minimize my contact with females as much as possible. There are a few women I work with, but they are only acquaintances and nothing more. I'm nice to them and I hope they will be nice to be.

I have an elderly woman neighbor I talk to. She was a friend of my mom before she died. She went out of town and let me have her newspapers, which was nice. She knows I'm divorced and doesn't make issue of the fact I don't want to marry again.

I also have a fading "friends with benefits" relationship with someone I worked with a long time ago. She split from her husband and when she found out my wife left me for her Facebook ex, she provided some emotional support for me and I for her, which is how we became friends with benefits.

We talk occasionally, but haven't gotten together in a long time. She has a new boyfriend and I'm OK with that. She told me when she was younger, she had plenty of guys before she settled down. If she'd spent more time studying than laying down with men, she might not have flunked out of college.

I used to have female friends, but am phasing them out now, especially with stuff like #metoo and the like going on. I guess it's OK to have female friends, but don't keep them too close.

2018-08-27T01:24:37+00:00

Women aren't true friends, so nothing further to discuss I guess.

ziggmuff · 2018-08-27T02:18:58+00:00

Women friends are the worst. Listening to their garbage conversations about nothing. Them not listening to you and waiting for their turn to talk. Not being happy about anything you do for them. Needing you when they need you, then being flakey when you ask them for a hand. Asking for advice then never using it and then bitching about it. I could go on forever baby.

If it wasn't for my Mom and Grandmother, there'd be no women in my life.

StoneTempleFlyboy · 2018-08-27T20:34:08+00:00

What's a female friend? I'm not familiar with the idea.

2018-08-28T06:36:16+00:00

From my experience, albeit limited, it will only work if she is getting more out of it than you. I'm currently at University. The girls here are ruthless. The level of entitlement is hard to tolerate from a red-pill perspective.

That said, if your as cunning as 'a shithouse rat'; you can make it work. But boy do they go cray cray when they realise you played them.

RatRaceConqueror · 2018-08-26T17:40:19+00:00

Pay less attention to consensus and more to going your own way. Your own way can include things like gf or even a wife as long as its all on your terms at all times.
