For more than 20 years I've been more or less MGTOW without having any idea what it means. Since puberty I've never trusted women or really wanted anything to do with them other than sex. Although I would call myself partially redpilled in the early years, the last few years I've been 100% rp.

I was lucky enough to hit the genetic lottery. I'm 6'2" 200lbs, blue eyes, roman features, etc. Although I was never a Chad jock type I always found it easy to pick up women when I wanted to. The thing is, I've never really wanted much to do with them. Only societal pressure and my own hormones pushed me to pursue any women at all. I'm not bragging about my looks here, it's just relative to the story.

I turned 40 this year. It took me 2 engagements and dozens of girlfriends to finally 100% realize their true nature. After an extended period of reflection I also realized that I'm much happier when I'm single. Although I've never been married I have come very close. The last time I called off the engagement just a few weeks before the wedding. It's amazing what a difference a diamond ring makes to a woman. Then and only then will they fully reveal themselves to you. The last one was the worst. The day I proposed we had mind blowing sex and she was crazy about me, but the very next day she became a completely different person. Over the next 6 months my life became a living, sexless nightmare. Fortunately I came to my senses at the last minute and got out of it. Letting her keep that ring is the best $10,000 I've ever spent.

I write this to make a point to the younger guys around here. Although I just discovered this movement a few days ago, I've been at it for a long time now. Don't cave to societal pressure. Don't give in to your hormones. Completely remove the idea of the fairytale princess from your mind. If you continue to date then you must learn to identify branching and dump them flat on their asses the instant it happens. It will happen. Every. Single. Time.

Looking back on past relationships I can now see when they were cheating, when they started getting restless for strange cock, when they saw me as a utility, and when they lied. I have no resentment against women at this point in my life, nor am I bitter. I feel no anger towards them, only a shred of pity. I've accepted reality and it is a wonderful feeling. I am free!

These days I have a nice house in a desirable neighborhood that I renovated with my own two hands. I have a Mercedes, a truck, and a $50,000 fishing boat. Again, I'm not bragging, I'm just making an example. If you don't waste your time and money on women in your 20's you'll be much better off than me by the time you're 40.

The last 6 years increasingly desperate women have begun to throw themselves at me regularly. I refuse all of them. I have a couple of smoking hot 20 year old escorts that I call once in a while. All of my needs are met.

When my work obligations are satisfied I can do whatever the fuck I want with my free time. Usually it involves putting my two dogs in the truck, hooking up the boat, and heading to the lake for the weekend. Sometimes friends join me, sometimes they don't. I enjoy the solitude more than the company. At this point all of my friends are married. When they join me on a fishing trip they always have to call their wives to check in. Mind you this is while we're miles away from civilization, watching a beautiful sunset, and catching fish. These checkin calls are prearranged for one reason and one reason only: to regulate these guys' fun and enjoyment of life. Their wives are terrified they might possibly enjoy themselves for just a few fleeting moments and realize the truth.

The good news is that you don't have to live that way and neither do I. I'm glad I found this movement and I'm happy you did too.
