Is loneliness the price to pay for freedom?

_OHReally_ · 2018-08-19T11:21:25+00:00

No. Being alone is the prize.

Alone doesn't necessarily translate to loneliness. Most of us MGTOW are happier when we're alone.

gods_bones · 2018-08-19T11:43:18+00:00

Yup. You know why?

Because we have been enslaved since the day we stepped out of our caves and the women manipulated the men into hunting for food for them and sharing their shelter and fire with them.

So now we get to go back to our roots and rewrite history with MGTOW. We're the first realized generation of MGTOW to actually form a community/society. Our caves get to be empty now and we get to enjoy all the gains from our victorious hunt to ourselves from now.

We get to redeem the first caveman's first mistake.

Weak minds flounder in solitude. Strong ones flourish in it.

You should try then to have your freedoms taken away, if you don't miss your freedom then you are not cut out for this, go ahead we won't / cant stop you,

Some just won't appreciate the boring peaceful times without experiencing lots of drama

Just stay safe and avoid having kids

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Nietzsche

"A man can be himself only so long as he is alone; and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free." - Schopenhauer

Why should you be lonely? As mgtow u have loads of extra time. Where are your friends? What are your social activities? Gym?

Why does life have to be lonely because you don't have some women beside you cunagging endlessly?

Life is only what you make of it. Make something of it.

It's tough man, not going to lie. My life is so much better than it's been while with women but I still struggle with it from time-to-time. I'll catch myself thinking that maybe I'll meet a girl when I go out with friends and such. Theyre fleeting thoughts but instinctual, and sometimes I get lonely from them.

We are wired to want women, it's not an easy battle. Personally I feel I can justify the time I spend on this sub because it really hammers the point in that I'm better off without.

Probably get downvoted lol, but I definitely get where you're coming from. Happens to me as well.

MGTOW mean you will be alone for most part and feel lonely if you don't have friends. I feel like this is not an easy decision for many people.

nazrinz3 · 2018-08-19T18:27:21+00:00

100% I Had many a night where friends were tied down with their partners or kids and couldn't go out but right now I have a girl on the side and loneliness isn't really a problem but if your going 100% solo then yea it can get lonely when everyone else is doing the norm and cant always be there too have a good time because "commitments" even so I'd rather have a fuck buddy or be straight single because relationships are good for the first 3 months then go shit or just become a boring daily grind

No, Vigilance is the price for freedom.

Immortalganryu · 2018-08-19T15:15:47+00:00

learning to be introspective, and ultimately embracing being alone with your thoughts will take your existence to a whole new level.

PopCultureMGTOW · 2018-08-19T16:48:02+00:00

I agree with what's already been said. MGTOW really is FREEDOM. Feeling a bit lonely from time to time is understandable b.c. we're still human beings, but the difference is we have options. We can go places, meet new people, learn something we always wanted to learn, hit the bar to watch a game, research that business idea we've been contemplating for years, write that book or movie we talked about. The list goes on. Having a woman around isn't a cure for loneliness when it's the wrong woman - it's a recipe for disaster and misery. Just one man's opinion.

eightgaydiamonds · 2018-08-19T19:14:15+00:00

Not if you take women's rights away

2018-08-20T00:39:49+00:00

You must learn to be alone, but not lonely.

jonathino001 · 2018-08-19T13:21:56+00:00

Only if you view it as a cost, but then again some people are just wired that way.

But if you absolutely must be social, do so with like-minded men.

GoDuke2018 · 2018-08-19T18:50:22+00:00

Damn i love being free and alone, no thot, no feminist with the force is female shit and no strong empowered wyman bothering me, texting me, calling me ,etc...Thank heavens for mgtow

AvailableNoise · 2018-08-19T19:03:04+00:00

I don't know the answer but this is a very interesting question to ponder. I have often thought the same thing. I like to think that maintaining discipline is the cost of freedom. To steel yourself in weaker moments where you are tempted by something that may ultimately cost your freedom or erode it.

Iperovic · 2018-08-19T19:56:02+00:00

I am single...i am not alone tho...every day i spend with my friends and family, occasionally i would pump and dump when it's free of charge...being alone does not equal lonely

hrm0894 · 2018-08-20T03:05:05+00:00

With the internet being widespread, I'd say being lonely is hard these days. I get nearly all my social interaction from social media and video games.

2018-08-20T04:31:12+00:00

Don't need to feel lonely. Play multiplayer games online. Go to festivals. Go to dinner with coworkers. Tons of stuff to do.

SPI-MGTOW · 2018-08-20T17:32:45+00:00

No one lonelier than a married man stuck with a bitter wife or girlfriend. That's is depressingly lonely.
Seriously, you should consider getting a dog. They will brighten your life more than you know.
