I've been MGTOW for a couple years now, have slowly swallowed the red pill, slowly deprogrammed my former blue pill indoctrination, discovered how much I enjoy my solo life, doing things my way, and opened my eyes to what my "enslaved" other brothers are also subjected to beyond what they present on the surface. I remember the horror I was put through before when I was under the blue pill spell, and I will NEVER go back to that place where I was so used, abused, and disregarded. I am now at a place in my life where things are better in so many ways than they were before. In fact, things are so much better now, it's really shocking to me! The things that kept me chained up in a marriage and obsequious relationships before have been intentionally uncovered and removed from my life, and the difference is just unbelievable sometimes. I get lots of sleep, I have good money in my bank account, I don't have to constantly cater to some unreasonably entitled person's demands, I get to do all of the wonderful things I enjoy that were prohibited before, I have peace, I have fun, and I am truly enjoying life again.

And here's the purpose of my post: Is this real? Is this too good to be true? Could I be missing something? Was it really just societal indoctrination and my un-mastered sex drive that was keeping me from this awesome place before? It almost seems too simple. It wasn't exactly easy reach this place I'm in now (especially if I consider the blue pill torture I was put through to help wake me up), but was this wonderful and enjoyable state really available to me all the time and all I had to do was change my view of things and embrace it? Don't get me wrong, I'm EXTREMELY GRATEFUL for this!! But after all I was constantly put through before in my blue pill indoctrination, I still just have a hard time believing I'm free, that I won't suffer someday for getting to enjoy this life, that this life I'm enjoying is real and was available to me all along. Anyone else feel like this?
