Hello everyone,
I’m glad I found mgtow when I was around 23 years old. At that time I was still struggling to understand what relationships imply. I had broken up with a narcissistic woman who was cheating on the man she was going to marry in the near future. My grades started to plummet, I barely studied and spent most of my time with her for around 6 months.
When I broke up with her, I felt lost and plunged myself into work. I went through the worst year of my life. I started going out at bars alone, went to stripclubs, got kicked out for being too drunk, nearly drank myself to fall into a coma and I felt disrespected by two women which hurt me for no reason by not seeing my value. Both were having miserable lives, both barely getting by and having absolutely no ambition apart from “doing something” and getting drunk.
It was a hard pill to swallow, but thanks to that year, I saw how bad things can go. I’ve met bankers who were earning huge amounts of money and who were powdering their noses and spending all their cash on whores with Rolexes. People were destroying their lives all around me. I attracted the people who had the same mentality at that same as always. I saw the dark side of society, how so many hide their evil side. I even met people I considered as good people who were wearing a mask all along.
It was hard, but I lost my innocent mentality completely after that descent to hell. I spent most of this year alone, introspecting to a point where I became fully self reliable and independent. I realized that the worst moments of my life were caused by women. My whole year was incredible professionally, and the only times things went downhill emotionally was when some women I had interest in hurt my feelings for no good reason.
I slowly started surrounding myself with the right people, people with ambition, dreams, aspirations, goals. I studied them. They had all one thing in common and deep inside I knew what it was, I just did not want to accept it. They were MGTOW. Never committed, never cohabitating, never paying, focused on work and investments. After my last descent to hell, when I hit rock bottom and nearly got myself into a fight and was close to losing my health, it all clicked.
The years went by, I was sometimes considered as weird because I deleted all social media, cut contact with bad people and especially did not have a woman. I was sometimes considered a loser too. But it didn’t matter to me because my life was improving incredibly.
I decided to live with my parents, barely ever go out unless I had something to win from it (business evening, networking event). I stopped drinking completely and especially I started saving up. I got myself a great job in finance and just hammered at it like crazy. I also got back into fitness, started eating low carb, got the rippest I had ever been in my life. I also stopped taking shit from people and always asked for facts and would put them back into their place being it men or women, didn’t matter anymore.
And it did change my life for the better. I turned 30 a couple of weeks ago. I still do not want relationship because I don’t see the value in it. As a 71 year old friend told me when one of his friends asked me what he does at home he said : everything, he cooks, he repairs, he runs, he cleans up... Women/ relationships are truly secondary.
You’re never really alone. You have friends around you. Make sure you chose the right ones, loyalty and honesty are key. The rest can get lost.
At 30, I have a solid job, over 500’000€ in savings and two apartments that I rent out to generate passive income and the nice watch I always wanted to have. I can move freely without asking for permission, I don’t have to compromise.
The people who used to criticize me are broke, renting small apartments in shady parts of town, not even realizing that they’re wasting their life away.
I met that cheating ex recently, the expression she had on her face seeing me in the best shape of my life, ripped, she saw me coming out of my blacked out S 63 Amg Coupe and stopped right there and wanted to reconnect out of the blue, it was priceless. I just looked at her, smiled a little like Denzel Washington in American Gangster when he says “My Man” and let her hanging.
Keep improving your life, keep leveling up, go your own way, all you need is yourself. Save up, invest and work hard. Become the best version of yourself and be focused on your goals. Women are secondary.
Best
