What was the Last Straw?

Super_Tiger · 2017-09-12T17:17:24+00:00

Realising that every single woman i meet in my age range has at least a) 1 to 2 kids, usually by different men, b) the body of a woman 20 years older than they actually are, and c) after years of fucking any guy that smiled at them suddenly turned into nuns that decide they won't have sex until they get a ring.

I simply decided that at 34, working out 5 times a week, plus having a great career, i deserve better, and what's out there is not better.

Solstus22 · 2017-09-12T18:19:19+00:00

Mine's realizing that even if you have EVERYTHING that a woman desires; physical appearance (6-6-6 men or Chad), lots of excellent assets (gold, six figure income, luxury cars) and even a great personality (charismatic, funny, mature etc.), women will just find another reason to be unhappy and screw it all up. They are NEVER satisfied and content.

I'm 40. Recently divorced. Spend the five years of marriage to try and make her realize what a family, HER family means. I failed and now she's a catalogue of every stupid traits displayed in a woman : Chase the dude who doesn't want her, get needy when he say no, get to dating apps to get validation and orbiters, try to be independant but clearly fails, pursue the higher value and so on...

Also, I've met some serious cases of nuts. Even my best friend, a female, have disappointed me with her many "I did not wanted to tell you but... " where if she did told me, it could have greatly helped me to be better.

I'm sick with women. No more LTR, hook ups, no female employees unless there's a bunch of dudes around her, best friend have been thrown away (and chased me since, ha ha).

World for me is now : I'm dating myself, I take care of myself, I'll have some great and fun times with women friends but I won't get close to another one ever.

I'm gone my own way.

ShogunRonin1 · 2017-09-12T17:35:44+00:00

Spending two months on PlentyOfFish in 2015 being treated in the most brutal and shocking fashion by the women I had the audacity to persue.
Spending 8 years developing my self esteem/confidence and social skills. Trying to be good enough for the modern woman. In the end, I realised as do most that it wasn't me with the problem. Of course, with me not persuing I started obtaining some attention from the opposite sex.

I can proudly say I have matured enough to not have to play the 'badboy/asshole' just to satisfy her hamster. I no longer look at a 'attractive girl' and put her in that category. I judge based on 'actual value' and tbh most women are not that attractive to me in this day and age.

NeverNeverLandIsNow · 2017-09-12T20:33:24+00:00

Wife tried to tell me that we would be taking on her sisters 2 fucked up kids (fucked up as in never disciplined, never listen etc...) as their current caretaker was sick and dying. She just assumed that at 50 I would be ok with taking on 2 teenage kids I did not like to begin with even though all our time together I made it clear I did not want kids. I told her if she insisted then we were done. She insisted, then acted surprised when I left. Been living on my own since April and I am much happier now so was a blessing anyway.

DagonNaxos · 2017-09-12T20:44:29+00:00

Story time: Here I am, on the cusp of 30. I'm running myself ragged at work, driving every other week from NJ to VA and staying the week and driving 6 hours each way. All the while, I'm on the phone and going to hospitals and doctors appointments with my mom and dad in between work calls, to plan my dad's triple bypass surgery. Every time tbe phone rings, I fear the worst. In the midst of all of this, my girlfriend, who was living with me rent free and I'm paying for basically my entire household's bills PLUS hers, was cheating on me with her 45 year old married professor in her nursing school. There was also a conversation in there somewhere about her sexual history, an ambiguous but later proven negative HIV test and a pregnancy scare, also thankfully negative.

So there I am, 2am sitting at my desk and her phone goes off. She is asleep. The text is from her teacher. It says "Love you, babygirl. <3 <3"

That was the night something in my brain shorted out. I went on autopilot, helped her pack her stuff and sent her off into the early morning dew.

Ever since then, I have absolutely ZERO trust in anything with a vagina. I've tried. I've talked about it. Gotten mad about it. Almost put a bullet in my head over it. And now, I just don't care about it.

fantasmas05 · 2017-09-12T21:22:19+00:00

Got involved with a 40 year old, unemployed, lazy, depressed, single mother of 3 kids to 2 different deadbeat losers. She had the audacity to ask me "what do you bring to this relationship?" as if she was some prize to be won.

I was blue pilled as fuck so it took me a while she was just looking to lock down a beta bucks for a meal ticket. That day came when I realized she hadn't taken her contraceptive pills for 6 weeks and she admitted she was trying to get pregnant.

I shudder when I look back at that now and think about how my life could've turned out.

Marque01 · 2017-09-12T17:18:08+00:00

I had been laid off, went to school for 2 years, and had just landed a full time job again. I was about 3 paycheques in after carrying a debt load for the whole school term, when this 40+ woman I know started messaging me about how we 'had to catch up!'

Catching up meant I had to buy her drinks and a meal at a restaurant every 3 days. She opened with some kissing, and then quickly pulled back over the next few dates. Finally, when she pulled the 'I thought you just wanted to be friends' shit, I invented a fake height insecurity (" I didn't think you'd be interested anyways due to my height..."), took 4 inches off my height and told her that number.

She dumped me fast enough and I haven't heard from her since :)

Good riddance!

TheAccidentOf85 · 2017-09-12T18:11:04+00:00

I'll tell a story of when I realized I was being manipulated by the most current GF. It was the beginning of the end for me in this relationship, and might be my last relationship.

To set it up, she is from a Croatian family and we were going to a Croatian wedding, and I'm your typical American guy. The wedding was Black Tie Optional, which to me means if you own a tux then wear it, if not please dont waste the money to rent or buy one.

Manupulation: Well she starts telling me the bride to be is very important to her and it would mean so much to her if I wore a tux. I pushed back some at first, then I get the guilt trip "Oh but you'd look so handsome in a tux, and so and so means so much to me, she is like family, everyone will be in a tux." I didn't want to wear a fucking tux, or pay money to rent a tux. I wish I held my ground, but I rationalized it in my head "well maybe the Croatians take black tie more seriously." So I rent the damn tux for $250. At a wedding of probably over 200 people, I was one of four in a fucking tux.

She tried something similar a month later, sending me links to shoes I should get for another friends wedding. Fuck that, I broke up with her before going to that wedding, a destination wedding in Italy. Now she gets to travel all alone and go to a wedding with no arm piece, while I changed my flight to Dublin and I'll be knocking back some whiskey and Guinness.

I've said it before, women treat you like an accessory, you better look as good as possible for the sole purpose of making her look as good as possible.

brothers filed bankruptcy before i grad college. mother said i

ghosted every fucking one. went on vacation for myself for first time last summer

a17c81a3 · 2017-09-12T18:41:51+00:00

Ex wife hit me in the face over something completely irrelevant.

I knew then it was get out, end up in jail or end up murdered by your own wife.

nepomuk167 · 2017-09-12T21:05:59+00:00

When my ex texted me 2 months after she broke up with me out of the blue because I "didn't show her enough affection", asking if she could come over to get tied to my leather chair and get fucked again. I stupidly agree. After we're done she tells me she is back together with the guy she left for me back in the day (that guy got fucked over so badly. Was suicidal for months) But he is working this weekend so he doesn't know. She tells me she still loves me. So I take her phone and email myself her chat history. After reading it I send the guy screenshots of what happened. One day later my ex angrily sends me screenshots of the guy telling her his heart is broken again(!!!) and this time she has to fight for him. I laugh and cry at the same time and go nc. Friends tell me he stayed with her and wants to move in together. 3 weeks later my ex texts me again that she broke up with him (this time for good) and misses me so much. I stay NC. A few days later I find a 7 page letter in my mailbox in which she begs me to take her back and she is now sure she only wants me.

After that shit I said fuck that. I'm out of this game. Reading what she texted him before and after she let herself tie to a chair and get fucked by me really changed me. I still have months of texts between her and him and her and her "best guy friend". Sometimes I read them again to remind me how crazy those bitches really are. She texted her bf that she loves him, her guy best friend if she could come over to cuddle because she doesn't know if she should stay with her bf or come back to me and at the same time let herself tie up and get fucked at my place telling me she loves me... I can and will never trust a woman again.

WhistlingAlong · 2017-09-12T18:01:39+00:00

A decades or so of rejection then it finally clicked. I will say that if there is such a thing as being judged God has no right to give me shit for not trying my hardest.

Mgtow lifestyle now.

tw1g007 · 2017-09-12T20:40:58+00:00

The first 10 years of my life I had both parents. Then the second 10 years of my life I grew up to a single mom, believing that my dad was a bad guy. It was extremely brutal when I got red pilled and realized that I was damaged goods because I grew up to a single mom. I also realized that my father was the best man I ever knew, of course I never saw this before because of all the lies and biases.

I had a huge argument with my mother. Said nasty things. Told her she is the reason she will never see grand kids. I have only been speaking to my dad since. I will never reconnect with my mother, even on her death bed. I just can't forgive that betrayal.

mgtow_ · 2017-09-12T19:08:19+00:00

Caught ex-wife cheating for the 3rd time. Ex-girlfriend invented drama out of no-where. Typical wymyn behaviors.

Popeman79 · 2017-09-12T20:29:47+00:00

Not really a last straw. Kind of on the contrary, TRP made me improve, and I'm not gonna lie, at first I improved for women.

Then at some point I 'cracked the women code' so to speak, and just when I figured I could have sex whenever I wanted and get most girls interested in me, I suddenly lost interest.

Sex is like drinking water, you think about it all the time if you don't have access to it, but when you do, it's no big deal.

No regrets though, the redpill journey has made me a better man, it's just that now I focus on more important things. I still get laid when I feel like it, but I know it won't last forever as I'll get old and the sexual marketplace is unforgiving. I don't care.

Alphareboot · 2017-09-12T20:44:05+00:00

I spent a year and a half trying to figure out a Borderline, she was never diagnosed, there was nothing wrong with her in her eyes and I had to Google some of the weirdest fucking behavior I have ever seen in my life. I thought it was me...

Found out in the end none of it mattered, she was engaged to another guy the whole time. He was away working and sending her money, poor schmuck, but I told him and he didn't want to hear it. So....

Even that wasn't enough, I gave one girl a chance over here in the Caribbean. Now she's waiting for a simp to take her overseas, after constant fights about what she needed money for now.

I told her to fuck off at the right time in retrospect, after a couple of months of giving her a chance to behave like a normal human being.

There will never be another one, it's all the same shit (normally money). Now I rent girls by the hour and treat them like the paid for fuckmeat they actually are.

DagonNaxos · 2017-09-12T20:50:57+00:00

My other one was siging up fo EHarmony. I spent 4 hours carefully crafting a profile and answered, in detail, 1200 questions.

I happily hit send and it said "There are 14,000 women that match your criteria and preferences within a 50 mile radius! Hang on, we're getting your results."

So I waited. And it churned. And I waited.

"You have ZERO matches...."

Zero. None. Nil. Nada. Nunka.

At that moment, I saw the reality of not being Chad.

mow4me · 2017-09-12T17:25:29+00:00

Good move, this exact thing happened to me too many times to count, esp when I had the most important things happening the next day..they want the money but go insane when your attention shifts...last straw was having 4 LTRs over 15 years, each ending after discovering they were secretly fucking chads..it all started to click, then I discovered material like on this sub and it then clicked like an avalanche

HairyBaIIs007 · 2017-09-12T18:25:00+00:00

I been lied to too many times. I can't anymore. Nothing ever worked out. Plus, I can't afford to have a relationship.

thewisesloth · 2017-09-12T22:06:46+00:00

I told my ex I needed the bare minimum amount of affection, and that I couldn't go on in a one-sided relationship where I give love, and she takes it and gives nothing back in return. She said, "Well, this is just how I am." I thought, "Well, that's it then. Time to GTFO and never put up with this kind of parasitic bullshit again."

sammygrant90 · 2017-09-12T22:08:43+00:00

Several factors for me. First thing was getting basically nowhere with women being traditional 'nice guy' growing up. In college I pumped up the confidence level fake it til you make it style and bam, off to the races. I wanted to be nice, tried for years but got nowhere. Lost tons of respect for women this way. Then while still in college I got into lifting, tried to go back to being nice with benefit of being fit and buff. No real traction. Back to being a dick, back to having regular sex.

After college I was already pretty checked out on marriage, witnessed all manner of shit female behavior that this subreddit covers. But during this time my rogue financial education started. Nice house, nice car, student debt, everything parents and society say is good - all just chains you to the plantation. Decided fuck it, all I want in life is a nice chunk of land, huge garden, no debt. Learn about alternative housing, investing, whatever hobbies I want. So I started down the road GMOW, getting finances in order to live the dream. Was going my own way and not even looking for a gf or sex, but came across a female that wanted everything I wanted, like mirror image of what I wanted. Brought back hope I could marry and have kids and still live the dream. Spent 6 months getting to know her, no red flags, asked her out. She immediately changed after we started dating, like a switch flipped. She changed all the stuff she previously said, now all about trying to settle down and have kids immediately, send me of to work every day so she can stay home and raise kids in the yuge house i pay for. But she still expected to be taken out to nice places, shop at nordstrom (proper, not rack), expected equal help around house. Tries to get me to buy nice clothes and italian leather shoes (I have corpo job, wear nice clothes but bought at goodwill). Sorry, not signing up for a life on the fucking plantation. Full MGTOW now

Biker203 · 2017-09-12T21:42:29+00:00

When a woman mess with your sleep you need to dump that bitch. She is trying to punish you. It just shows she only cares about herself.

justareflektorr · 2017-09-12T20:46:00+00:00

Realized one of my exes friends cheated on her husband knowingly and made him a cuck, willingly. Just the vile, evil, amoral nature of women hit me like a brick to the head, their pretty face just doesnt seem the same anymore.

RiseAboveMorty · 2017-09-12T22:55:50+00:00

Listen Morty, I hate to break it to you, but what people calls "love" is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard, Morty, then it slowly fades, leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. I did it. Your parents are gonna do it. Break the cycle, Morty. Rise above. Focus on science

Imagine that scene in the movie Office Space where the hypnotist dies, except I was watching Rick and Morty on Mushrooms with my Grill. Basically checked out and was never the same. I had watched MGTOW videos throughout most of the 5 year relationship, but that quote just perfectly meshed with my state of mind and pushed me over the edge.

sendnudesb · 2017-09-12T23:35:20+00:00

Three different women in a row hit me withthe fake I'm pregnant text in about a 5 month period. That was enough for me to say fuck it, I had a good run.

VanishMantle · 2017-09-12T23:37:15+00:00

My last straw when I asked this girl I have known for close to 7 years now out. Her reply was, thanks but I don't feel the same way but she appreciated the attention. The very next day she tells me some other guys likes her too almost like rubbing it in my face that all she wanted was the attention.

Needless to say I felt like shit was depressed for 2-3 days then I started asking myself, "why does this shit matter?" I ended up doing some soul searching and stumbled on some videos related to marriage that helped push me into full mgtow as I had only been mgtow light up until that point.

Then some lines from a manga confirmed this even more. Women just want attention and it doesn't matter who it is or who gives it to them.

Avyctes · 2017-09-12T22:25:25+00:00

The last straw came this year when I learned or at least opened my eyes to the fact that women, as they get older, accumulate tons of baggage and most deal with that load (sorry, had to use that word) unsuccessfully. After a brief, and I do mean brief cost/benefit analysis, I decided they are a shit investment of time, resources, etc.

I walked away without batting an eye and I pity those poor bastards who are still nurturing the oneitis or their pathetic fem-conditioned unicorn theory.

cudio · 2017-09-13T00:20:51+00:00

Reaching 22 as a kissless virgin. I'm tall, in good physical shape, good looking, intelligent, an excelent guitarrist/singer, yet no girl ever showed interest in me. I'm very introverted, and generally quiet if I have nothing to say, but people mistake this as shyness, lack of atitude, or whatever, and then say I have to "improve my personality", as if being who I am is wrong! I'm sorry, but I'm not going to make a fool of myself just for a used piece of meat, as all women my age most certainly are. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. Seeing my sister, who was a great girl, become an egotistical cunt certainly did not help.

IRYpy · 2017-09-13T01:04:43+00:00

I was f***ing my ex in the pool and she got a call. She answered and it went like that: "Hey baby, I'm at the mall, I'll be home soon."

Prior to that, she told me she had no bf. After the call, I was like : "Wtf is this shit, are you serious." She told me he had a small dick and the sex was bad but he was a great guy and she loved him so much. I went limp and felt so bad for the guy I couldn't sleep straight for days. Stupid b**ches. Turns out he's a millionaire.

Now I know why she suddenly had D & C purses with a new car and some bling bling. To this day, she's probably f**cing other guys while he provides for her.

UglyPrince2000 · 2017-09-12T19:11:14+00:00

When they tried to put me in the corner. No one puts baby in a corner, no one!

Well, i gave up when my gf of three years lived with me rent free the whole time and one day straight up asked to borrow my truck so she could move in with Chad. I guess Chad didn't have a car or something? Idk.

washingtonpanther · 2017-09-12T23:11:42+00:00

If nothing else, the rampant, unapologetic insincerity and inconsiderate nature.

Highly_Literal · 2017-09-13T00:08:13+00:00

Grew up with 14 sisters I was the youngest father wanted a boy.

CadeyrnDragheim · 2017-09-13T00:59:48+00:00

25 years of age and never had a serious relationship, did have some flings but that was just that. Noticed I was putting all this pressure on myself to pursue women and become the ideal man. My reasoning was that the girls I did pursue with vigor (being nice, the good man, ect.) would always say I'm a good man but never wanted anything. Therefore I was not good enough. After countless tries of becomming perfect I just was fed up with everything. Why the fuck should I become this ideal person when they are just all fucking empty shells we should worship simply because they are female? No way, I decide to call it quits and work on myself, and low and behold I'm actually making progress with the things I like instead of it being forced it comes natural. The fucked up thing was that I actually started to believe that there was something wrong with me simply because woman did not really showed any intressed. But after countless of days of self doubt I found that I have quite enough to offer and am I plesant and easy going guy, with whom you could talk hours on almost any subject, so yeah if that is not enough then I do not want to be enough. Also the simple lie that woman are not as superficial as men, they look further then the outer shell, well nothing could be more further from the truth. So to sum up alot of straws where the last.

Also reading on this reddit openend my eyes to some hard truths, the simples one being marriage and the divorces laws. Also the simple media percievence of man versus woman is simply ridicoules.

To be honest though sometimes I miss the ideal picture in my head with me and the love of my life being together. But then I remember that this is just a picture to far from any close by possible world.

ItsJustBeenRevoked2 · 2017-09-12T22:30:22+00:00

I was in the exact same position as op. Fed up of getting screamed at until the early hours for nothing meaning I went into work exhausted.

Five years of being my ex's bitch.

Pk_s_to_the_yizzle · 2017-09-13T02:29:51+00:00

The day she called the cops on me for TRYING TO LEAVE.

I had been mgtow without knowing and BAM! here is girl.

I'm not totally into her, don't like some of her habits and attitudes and NOT infatuated or having delusions of LOVE/FAMILY/CHILDREN.

So I go into the relationship to SEE. MY FIRST RELATIONSHIP EVER EYES WIDE OPEN.

I want to see if What I have been thinking is TRUE. The patterns. The crazy, the selfish. the lying. The cheating too.

So after one year, I decide to move in (stupid, but I did it as a do or die move. I move in and this gets better, or I leave now) DUMB.

During the whole time. I never FALL IN LOVE. NEVER GET BLINDERS.

Yes, I walked INTO A TRAP to watch it close. TO PROVE MY HYPOTHESIS. To see with MY OWN EYES.

3 months later, I 'm moving out.

On move out day I try having the adult discussion - WRONG MOVE!

She had been snooping my phone, and called my friend who I was going to move in with (a girl, no shagging) and threatened her and said some crazy shit.

So the Friend backs out and BAM - Homeless!

I find this out on the WAY TO GET MY STUFF TO MOVE! So now I want to KILL this person. Murder.

To be made homeless for trying to LEAVE A SITUATION ON GOOD TERMS LIKE AN ADULT.

I calmed down and called my bud with a van to meet me there. I pull up, and ALL OF HER HUGE FAMILY'S CARS ARE PARKED OUTSIDE.

They are inside. It's a setup, and they are ready for war. She runs outside to try and start an argument/get me to come inside and I don't bite.

My friend pulls up and I open the garage and we grab my couch...

The cops RAMBO UP ON THE CURB, and say "WE ARE HERE ON A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CALL".

I look dumbfounded at my friend, he looks back sheepishly, while WE ARE BOTH HOLDING MY COUCH IN OUR HANDS.

The cops scopes the situation and realizes whats what. All of a sudden her relatives pile into the garage looking angry and tough. (lord knows the LIES she must have been spewing in there) And their hands are filled with garbage bags full of my belongings.

The cops says "this is the calmest domestic violence call I've ever been too"

And I said "dude , your not helping her, your helping ME." As I packed my stuff.

And before I left, she TRIED to say something to me like "Let's not stop seeing each othe..)

I asked the cop to get her way from me and he obliged.

And I left.

That is when relationships died for me. And I started banging hookers and swinging.

I figured since there is ALWAYS as Sucker and a Fucker (Beta and Chad), I'm Just gonna be the fucker, and I did that for years.

Now, I'm kinds done with those too, Cause If you give the wrong married swinger the "I dont give a fuck about you" good dick, she latches on, TRIES TO MONKEYBRANCH and when you tell her to go the fuck away,

SHOWS UP AT YOUR HOUSE at 4am unnanounced. RINGING THE DOORBELL LIKE SHE's GOING TO BREAK IN, looking for DICK.

Man, I was upstairs and FINALLY FELL ASLEEP and WHAM! BAM BAM BAM BAM DINGDONG DINGDONG DINGDONG....

I stumbled out of bed, put a new clip in the gun and was halfway down the stairs when I realised THE TRICK.

SHE JUST WANTS CONTACT. Communication. Any communication.

Acknowledgement.

And I was about to fall for her stunt where she had nothing to lose and EVERYTHING TO GAIN.

I turned the laser sight off, went upstairs, and went to sleep.

NuevoTrollo · 2017-09-13T07:25:34+00:00

Realizing that the reason that I had about a dozen short term relationships fail over the course of two years was that I simply wasn't willing to do the things necessary to be in a relationship with a modern woman. I wouldn't do the things on her "honey-do" list, wouldn't loan her family money, wouldn't babysit the kids of any of the single moms I dated, wouldn't trade my pesonal dignity for sex by letting them "hang out" with other dudes or exes.

Even though I had numerous relationships with attractive women, I just wasn't willing to jump through their hoops anymore...they really weren't worth the trouble.

Cuck-WTF · 2017-09-12T22:00:13+00:00

Last straw?

Any women in my range are substance abusers and Xenophiles.

I'm all for personal preference, but excluding a group of people because they were "born wrong" is unacceptable.

Jonlife · 2017-09-13T00:47:16+00:00

Stand by your decision. No going back. Every dumb ass always takes them back. Don't make that same mistake.

Tothesky2121 · 2017-09-13T00:49:45+00:00

When I started doing her laundry- after the last load I looked her in the eyes and said ( I'm better off without you )

Tothesky2121 · 2017-09-13T00:56:10+00:00

Yes the all too familiar bitter sting of reality that 'we all are alone one this one" when you add women into your life its only taking from your wealth

dot_dot_beep · 2017-09-13T01:23:03+00:00

My last straw was an 8ish latina fucking around on me.

Ckb79 · 2017-09-13T03:33:46+00:00

My last straw was me flipping out to her being constantly negative. I have spent many years building wealth and securing a good job and a good home. Its not my fault she made shitty decisions in life and was always negative. Single Mom, 34 years old. Very attractive though. But still...The other straw was when I called her out on some 'male friend' texting her...I lost it and kicked her out on the spot. I did go on to regret it though. I regret I acted the way I did, not that I did it (if that makes sense)

When I took on a chick who was nothing special and she fucked the guy who used to bash her. That was the day I said fuck this bullshit I'm done. Only thing I miss is her dog and her father.

2 things I saw:

1) I saw my friend be falsely accused of rape, dragged into the police station, have the girl recant later on, and have 0 consequences. I was stupid back then but even I knew what would've happened if she didn't recant.

2) I sat down and thought of all the marriages I saw growing up. Every single one failed before the children reached 18.

Nothing directly related to me, but those close to me. Namely my father.

Growing up as a single child, with no relatives or much for friends, I relied heavily on my parents.

However, with that being said, everyday I would see my father come home from work and be abused. It was constant, there were times where I had to threaten myself to self harm or do something drastic to have them quit their fighting.

It got worse and worse as time went on, and in a way, witnessing my mother put me off women throughout the entirety of my youth. While watching their overall marriage, made me never want to tie the knot. I would never want to be in my fathers position, or have any children in my old position.

I talked to my father a lot about his relationship with my mother, and he always told me he stuck around for me and that he believed a child needed two parents. I respect him a lot for his sacrifice, even though I would've preferred he raised me as a single parent and I know for a fact I wouldn't ever stay in a relationship with someone like that.

Seeing first hand what I believe to be 75%+ of relationships really soured the idea for me at a young age. Now with the non stop flow of information thanks to the internet, it just reaffirms my decision to avoid getting into a car with a drunk, speeding driver and expecting not to crash.

in the midst of an ever increasingly pointless argument, i was yelling. full on. yelling at her for the first time in 4 years. i realized it was over right there. i realized her neighbors could call the cops, and id be in jail, and lose my right to bear arms, among other stigmas and problems from DV.

so, it ended. never wanted to be with a woman since.

For me, it was the year after my divorce. I started online dating, and the options I had were so bad that I decided I was done. Not coincidentally, I discovered escorts and MGTOW that year, and the way forward became very clear. It's been over 6 years and I haven't looked back.

Mikehideous · 2017-09-13T03:25:03+00:00

Coming to the realization that women chase status and financial strength, and men chase physical attractiveness. One of those things is a depreciating asset.

squidracer · 2017-09-13T07:02:31+00:00

Honestly I haven't cared in decades. Most of the girls I met already had husband's. It makes me proud to know that men are finally waking up.

Don't fall for the bullshit men, you are nothing to them.

/u/studentsensei please dont go back on your decision, or she'll make you miserable. No matter what she, or cuck friends say...!!!!!!

My last nail in the coffin or straw in the back of camel was....

Seeing too many rapists with females and no one seems to have a problem with it. Women would rather date losers. I found this problem to be severely amplified after I just moved to a city from 13,000 people to 160,000 people. With nearly 100,000 rapists to deal with I threw the towel in and went on welfare/disability and let them deal with it.

luckyprime · 2017-09-13T01:34:21+00:00

Dodged that bullet bro!

Coluphid · 2017-09-13T03:11:46+00:00

You'll make it brother. Stay strong. We are here for you.

Megghins · 2017-09-13T09:36:59+00:00

Seeing all women follow the same patterns and having actively exploited that in the way of: same questions = same answers - same situations = same behaviors. I also feel stupid because I noticed it after 3 failed relationships, but once you get it you'll never be the same. For the best.

They are literally all the same, there's nothing wonderful to discover that's just bs we are taught.

Which is fine for me, all people are the same in the end, I just don't like that women should be seen as something special, given all the evil they can actually do (mostly indirectly through competition).

shrug that bitch off ya shoulder

redrummilf · 2017-09-13T16:07:51+00:00

"How can I respect a man, that would settle for me?"

I think their biology makes this come true 99% of the time. Some of the chicks know it, some don't.

TigPlaze · 2017-09-13T16:38:26+00:00

She got me hot and heavy and then said, "Never mind my diaphragm, but let's do it anyway." I refused and she acted all hurt. Then we went out to eat and she told gross stories at the dinner table and I wondered why I was together with this crass and rude idiot of a bitch. I have this bizarre idea that good table manners are important.

leithz6 · 2017-09-13T18:02:02+00:00

The shackles are off.

Watching a 4 (at best) at a table of 6 dudes bumbling and swiping left on dudes way better looking than me, while barely giving anything more than their first pic a half a second of attention. When she did swipe right she got instamatched. This woman was a fucking troll matching with Turbo Chads and barely batting an eye. That was the end of my tindering and just looking for an easy lay. I stopped actually trying years ago when I just started picking up on all the bullshit. Luckily I had this place to solidify my beliefs because I was starting to think I was just going crazy...

wildfireboat · 2017-09-14T20:55:56+00:00

Just curious, when you say "I feel numb", what do you mean by this?
