That's why 97% of the media we take in is designed to make us feel that way.
Why don't you have washboard abs?
Why isn't your hair long and flowing and disheveled yet somehow perfectly in place?
Why don't you have the $3000 cooking set to surprise her with a gourmet meal whenever she wants?
Why don't you have the $60,000 car to take her to the coast?
Why don't you have the TV that talks and the watch that's a phone
and the $2500 home theater set in your $700 a month apartment?
Why doesn't your job pay six figures and come with unlimited time off?
Well you'd better go get the degree that'll get you that job, even if it's something you're not interested in at all.
Why can't you order at a restaurant in 3 different languages?
Why aren't you a ballroom dancer, a horticulture expert, a DIY master, and a black belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu?

They want you to believe that you can spend your way out of inadequacy.
You can't. You can only work your way out of it.
Manage your expectations and know yourself.
You'll never be all those things. You'll never have all that stuff.
And whoever you meet who's worth your time ought to be okay with that.

Should you aspire to some of that? Sure, if it's what you want.
If it's not what you want- fuck it. Who are you trying to impress?
Somebody just ought on the market looking for an upgrade?
Fuck all that.

You are not inadequate. The system is.
If you buy into it or chase the ideal of what they want you to be, then don't be surprised when it doesn't get you anywhere. It's not supposed to.
Because then you wouldn't feel inadequate anymore, and you'd stop consuming. And they can't have that.

Use this as a reminder that there are far better and more rewarding things in life to invest your time, thoughts and energy in.
It sucks, because we are burdened inescapably with these drives. They subconsciously steer our thoughts, and this inevitably leads to suffering.

Learn that it's a trap. Whenever you find your thoughts being led, remember what you have learned here. Don't focus on anger, just the knowledge that - yes, you know better.
You have proved to yourself that these creatures are not worth suffering over. Return your thoughts to where you want them to be.
And move forward.
Happier.

I really think that it's some weird thing with the universe. Cause every time I'm extremely happy with my life and the beautiful things going on in it. An ex shows up.

if you let society dictate what is a life milestone or a good aim for your life then I can't see you being satisfied long term.

its a two way street. no one puts a gun to your head and forces you to spend or do anything. If you are dumb enough to fall into a trap then you deserve what you get. Its like smoking or drinking, drugs or anything else. All of it is choices, good and bad. So what if the game is rigged, educate yourself and be prepared. Life would be pretty damn boring if it was "perfect".

When you're alone, just put on a smile. Practice in front of a mirror. Open your eyes really wide and smile. Let the smile turn into a wide grin, as you look deep into your own eyes. Eventually, you'll be laughing maniacally. Walk away from the mirror while muttering gibberish to yourself. This is how you stay sane.

Nice post

The only reason i worry about the world is because i live in this world. Sometimes i make political posts or posts about problems that have nothing to do with mgtow, but the fact is that you dont have to be involved in the world for the problems of the world come knock on your door. So one day you might be living in your plot of land, and after some major event someone knocks on your door.

Im a mgtow but i want the world to not interfeer more than what they already do with my mgtowness

OH by the way. How do you use your account for getting whores?

Women want equality. No woman wants to be equal.
