How many of you have never been in a relationship?

HotJewishGirl · 2019-06-22T22:16:11+00:00

I've been in a few. Wasn't worth it.

11 month stint when I was 21 ... Sex was ok but with all things I get bored easily and she turned into a mental disaster.

Her : "How can you eat the same food/dish every day ?" Me : "You should be worried if I cannot do so."

I've been in 10 different relationships. In 9 of them, she only took from me and did not treat me like a human being. She only saw me as her source of money. The one where I was treated like a human being was my high school sweetheart. She was a sweet and kind person. Then it was all downhill after that.

Once and there was a honeymoon phase and then the honeymoon phase went away.

I've been a few relationships. Honestly haven't been burned by a woman. No divorces, no baggage, no money gone out the other way except for money and time lost on dates as to be expected. For me, it was just a waste of time. The best way I've found was to just be friends with women and let it naturally develop into something. I'll never get married. But, if a friend happens to end up being in a relationship with me at some point, I won't say no to it. I'm MGTOW in the sense that I won't marry

TheSilverShade · 2019-06-25T16:29:50+00:00

First dates and acquaintances (3-6 months)

vetiarvind · 2019-06-29T15:37:41+00:00

Nope, never been in one. Been through plenty of casual ones though, more than most guys I reckon. I've also dated with a few and have had emotional affairs with some but I wouldn't call that a relationship in the classic sense. I don't think I want a relationship. A few women whom I was interested when I was a dorky bluepilled kid wanted to pursue me later but by then I'd wanted nothing off it.

Been in a on-off relationship with the same girl for 3 years. She broke up 4 months ago and I told myself I will never be in a relationship with her again. Same bullshit over and over and over. I'm still looking for a decent girl but I am in no rush to jump into another one. She riding the CC and monkey branching as she always has been.

Jake4523 · 2019-07-05T00:42:31+00:00

I've been in 4 I already posted my story, but needless to say......I sure as shit won't be trying again anytime soon! False accusation, cheated on twice, both on new years eve mind you, one I'm still friends with. I hold no ill for my ex's, nor would I want to see any harm done to them. What would be the point in that?

notjaysmith · 2019-06-24T08:25:25+00:00

Very short relationships. Like a month or two. Because I see beyond bullshit and can say when it has no future. Well, guess what, no woman can offer me a future with her...

I was in 1 relationship that was actually great, but I would have never been able to follow my dreams if I stayed with her. All experiences I had with women after that however left me no choice but to go my own way. I wanted a serious relationship with someone I didn't have to drag behind and every good looking chick I met only wanted sex which baffled me for 2 years, I kept looking for mistakes and blaming myself until the last one I talked to more seriously literally displayed all the red flags. It was really a coincidence that I kept avoiding anyone who had mgtow in their names youtube until that point and when I one day decided to check it out because I had to see what it was all about and suddenly it all made sense.

HughJeego · 2019-06-22T23:17:05+00:00

None of us have,a relationship is give and take. Women have the take part down though.

daniellederek · 2019-06-23T00:44:10+00:00

Relationship infers a meeting in the middle. Nope never experienced that....

-tripleu · 2019-06-23T01:07:03+00:00

Here.

rocko2002 · 2019-06-23T01:09:04+00:00

I did. Engaged for 7 years. Admittedly I was a bit of a dick myself. Mostly where she frustrated me, but instead of leaving her I hung around and went on Tourettes mode. But at least I admit it. She never did. And admittedly that was a toxic relationship.

Also I bought her a $1800 engagement ring that she lost and I didn't get to pay back until Jared's served me a court order. Yep, I was about to get sued for a ring. Food for thought gents

JD-Anderson · 2019-06-23T03:39:12+00:00

I’ve had better relationships with business partners, and one screwed me out of $2k.

lonewolfcatchesfire · 2019-06-23T08:57:07+00:00

I’ve been in a few and loved all of them until I didn’t. I have issues and I have to work on them. I have no kids and in the meantime I am looking to buy a house but I don’t plan to live in it. I’ll just rent it.

rumblepony247 · 2019-06-23T13:43:58+00:00

Been in two over 10 years, and a few much shorter. They all follow the same pattern chronologically, from (1) phenomenal, to (2)'meh', to (3)shit. It's just a question of intensity and duration of each stage.

Finally no longer willing to put up with (2) and (3) just to get a relatively short dose of (1). The value is not even close to proportional even in the best circumstances.

Elegia · 2019-06-23T16:57:42+00:00

31 years old. Never been in one.

The first woman to take an interest tried to cheat on her boyfriend with me, even though their relationship seemed to be going great. Perhaps naively I didn’t go for it. It just didn’t feel right. The next week she was all cozy with her boyfriend like nothing out of the ordinary had happened. That’s when I realised he (or really any man in a relationship) would never have known it if she ever did cheat on him. Since then I’ve never been able to fully trust any of them.

I’ve also had a cousin being cheated on (twice, by the same woman), witnessed a few false accusations from nearby and in general noticed a lot of slutty and otherwise questionable behaviour from a variety of women (flirting, drinking, ...).

That said, even with all those observations, I've always been pretty blue pilled, trying to get that girlfriend experience, but failing miserably. I guess it's a combination of intuitively feeling that something just ain't right, combined with FOMO, and yet not being comfortable with hookups. However, TRP and MGTOW have been an enormous help in making sense of the events described above. I'm now far more aware of any red flags. My self-confidence has been boosted and I'm no longer craving their validation as much as I used to.

So on the whole, I'm a lot happier going my own way and the moments in which I long for female companionship are dwindling.

GlobalAsshat · 2019-06-23T17:39:48+00:00

I find it not worth all the phony behavior to make myself seem dominant and interesting. They require more time, attention, and resources than I'm willing to give. Friends with benefits is easier.

By default I'm a pretty boring, peaceful guy who would rather hike out in the wilderness or meditate on a beach...I dont want to spend all day talking and interacting with people.

NYCCOOP · 2019-08-23T18:31:11+00:00

I have been married twice and I have been in many many relationships and relationships of any kind.
