As a MGTOW do you get on with your family

My family loves me, respects me and supports my positions. I'm the single, MGTOW, atheist son of traditional, married, Christian parents.

My family has mostly accepted it. My mom still is on the NAWALT/"you just need to meet the right one," train. It's hard for her to accept just how callous and cold modern women and dating and relationships have gotten.

I think they know that they're going to die without grandkids. My dad asked me if they fucked up somewhere as parents once. I told him no (which is partially untrue, but for other reasons) and he seemed to accept it.

I think they both realize that the world is fucked and to just accept it. My mom feels bad that I've struggled with relating to other humans. I think she thinks it's her fault.

I either cut them off entirely (like my toxic mother) or ghosted them (like my sister). If you need to do the same, I will suggest you do so. So what if they have the same blood? Fuck em. My family is my brothers here. My MGTOW Brothers.

My sisters understand and pretty much agree with me. They both have sons and are starting to see how the system treats men.

i did ghosted them . I always made em laugh so they are the ones missing me.

When family and friends gang up on me, I always give the most outlandish reply I can ("Oh I've decided to become a Jehovas Witness so I can have 3 wives, at 16 years of age. Get them young I say!"). If they cannot put you in a box, it's hard for them to say bad things about you.
Gifts? Stop wasting your money on them. Make a donation to your favorite charity on their behalf. They're not going to complain(oh who are we kidding, of course they're going to complain because you're taking resources away from them. Get back on the plantation!)

They want me to live the blue pill lifestyle. But they don't force it on me, tbh. I think I told my mom I rather go MGTOW once and she cried and tried to shame me. It's best to just keep quiet about it and just deflect any of those questions with "still haven't found her yet".

I appear to my family as I have always been. Their brother, uncle and cousin. When I leave that circle, I appear to be a lone mgtow. When other people see see, they don't know I'm mgtow, and I don't care. 2 sides of a same coin.

CeleritySteam · 2018-01-21T23:20:54+00:00

Be as the ghost. No, not that pirate ghost.

Well all of the men in my family bitch and moan about marriage, so as I've gotten older over the years, obvious I start associating with them more and more, so I could almost say my family redpilled me. When I tell them how I feel about dating and women in general, they give an approving (yet almost envious) "Good for you. Thats how its supposed to be" message

My family is pretty cool about it. Little pressure from my mom, zero from my dad. I’m 31 and have never had a gf, for a little perspective. I think my mom wants grandkids, but she knows it’s not her decision. Other relatives live a ways away from me, so I don’t see them much. They haven’t said a word to me about it in probably five years.

So I’d say my chances of being a lifelong bachelor are pretty high. Basically no pressure.

Loser420XXX69 · 2018-01-22T05:40:58+00:00

Thank the gods my brother did the dirty work of marriage and kids so my parents can get their grandkids kick from his sacrifices. That has taken immense pressure off me and they only bother me once in a blue moon about getting married but I always shoot the idea down firmly without too much protest from their end.

ThrowawayGhostGuy1 · 2018-01-22T02:49:49+00:00

Pretty normal. They don’t ask me about girlfriends, so I haven’t had to defend my positions or deflect.

eks_or · 2018-01-22T04:28:34+00:00

My mother doesn't want me to get married unless the woman I will be marrying is a virgin. My mother knows modern women are so used up and if she has a choice, she would prefer her children to marry a virgin woman. Haha i know.

Females in my family seem to view me as an accessory as well as others. They mainly mingle with themselves, it isn't surprising now based on what Auntie Esther taught me. So now I'm planning on disconnecting and disassociating with them. Make the "acessory" inaccesible.

Most of my close family members are not live any more so I do not feel that kind of pressure. However, in the time of last New Year / Christmas holidays 3 different persons asked me when I will marry. Note that these persons are my neighbor, a coworker and a distant relative; a people with whom I do not talk often and who are not within my circle of close friends (who never shame me because of my way of life). After thinking about why they all asked me that in almost same time I concluded this: holidays are time when people are thinking about meaning of their own life, so when I talked with them they were obviously in that mode and tried to fit me into their own ideas about meaning of life. However, what fascinated me the most is realization that they do not enjoy holidays as much as it appeared that they do. I was always rather asocial person and I hate all holidays. Instead to go out, drink and make a fool of myself, I prefer to spend holidays in peace like every other day - on new year evening I was reading some interesting book in my bed. Interestingly, I now also see that other people who are more social than me, behind their facade of "having a good time" are inside them evaluating the meaning of their own life in the time of holidays. Maybe there is still hope for them, after all.

My dad is pretty blue pilled, my mom is pretty red pilled but I kind of resent that she is pretty AWALT towards my dad. She has taken my side when I next women who give me excuses to not go on dates with me. Whereas my sisters and Dad are like “keep persisting, you just need to be more assertive and fight for her bc she’s self concious.” Lol, walking away and ghosting are some of the most powerful tools anybody has and are some of the best answers to shit tests.

Haven’t told them I’m MGTOW yet but I’ve started to drop hints by asking for Models by Mark Manson and The Rational Male by Tomassi for Christmas.

My family is on the NAWALT train, but obviously I know better than that.

Resident_Kiwi · 2018-01-22T06:35:45+00:00

My father found me spending my weekends indoors anomalous, while my mother, whom I had stricken brief conversations about feminism and men's rights, understood. My elder sibling thought I was asexual, but I only gave him an ambiguous indication and left it at that. I don't readily divulge my position, but I believe my folks have acknowledged I won't be providing them with grandchildren. They're generally accepting, albeit slightly obtuse - wouldn't change 'em for the world.

The other women in my family perceive me as introverted and I'm relatively aloof in their presence; however, if the situation arose, I wouldn't hesitate to give them an inkling since I am unconcerned with their disposition towards me.

As for the women I encounter in day-to-day life, I treat them much the same, although I dial up the affectedness, ingratiation, acquiescence and dullness as to give them the impression I'm periphery and to negate any affection and quash friendly relations.

Family is important.

Women or not, you should always try to have a good relationship with your mother, sister etc. If you aren't a bastard to them, they will have your back. They will look after you when you're sick, injured or in need of help.

They will protect you from women that try to harm you...

Family is one thing you should care for, even if you're MGTOW... MGTOW does not mean turning your back on people that actually cares for you.... its about turning your back to society that doesn't care for you.

alienSpaceMuffin · 2018-01-22T08:08:31+00:00

luckily i have 5 brothers, we are 6 males xD my mother is divorced because my father lost it and went batshit crazy. i respect my mother and i love her very much, she is a great woman and she sacrificed all her life for us, her kids. but, arter opening my eyes and becoming MGTOW, i was able to see traits on her that i really dont like. in the end, AWALT.. it only depends of how they were educated, my mother is a christian and she is very faithful, and thats something iwas able to see in all the churches i went... religion acts like a limiter for women, the fear of god can stop them from becoming thots and being good women, but not always...

SFM_2046 · 2018-01-23T00:06:18+00:00

They call me crazy....but that was even before mgtow......I see the deciet and the bullshit but my mind was clouded.......I call it out very clearly now....I don't deal with them like that and they cautiously ever try to contact me......FUCK EM!!!!!!!! other than that I see them for who they are and the gaslighting bullshit they were doing to me.... i feel no woes only that I couldn't help the youngings see the same thing

RedFoxOnFire · 2018-01-26T01:28:36+00:00

My grandmother is actually red pilled.

She asked me once why I never got married.

I asked her why she never re-married (she's been living with her boyfriend for over 40 years, but refuses to get married again)

Then I asked her to think about my (female) cousins (her grandchildren). None are married, they all have kids, living off the government, not to mention all the CC bragging they did on facebook for grandma to find.

She thought about all that and said: "Stay single as long as you want."
