I am not 100% MGTOW

It is too late for me. Married 26 years and if I left now, I would be living in a box in an alley. Anyway that's not what I wanted to talk about.

I was a total blue pill beta for my whole marriage. She ran the show, demanded everything to the point were I just sat on the couch and did nothing in hops of not pissing her off. That made both of us miserable.... It got so bad last year that I told it that was it, I had been looking for apartments and if things did not get better I was gone. She immediately said lets go the therapist and we had been many times before and I said NOPE. I had gotten to the point were I going to go do what I wanted to do and she could be a bitch if she wanted.

I started hanging out with old friends, taking guy trips, and most importantly telling her exactly what I was feeling and what I was doing. No more telling her lies or trying to cover stuff up, no more not trying to piss her off. I basically did not give a shit anymore. To my amazement she blinked, she apologized for being a bitch and being bossy. She went to counseling for herself to work on her. I come home now to dinner on the table, great sex, and a lot less nagging.

I know this is not MGTOW and I know some of you will say well she is just being nice in order to keep living off my paycheck. I have done the numbers if I walked away now she would get about $800,000 so she does not need my cash she already has that.

I truly think that when I showed her the " I don't give a fuck anymore" attitude and that I became more honest with her and started being a RED PILL She woke up and respected me more.

If I was 20 again ---- MGTOW all the way.... But from where I am at now and to try and help some of you older guys that are in my situation ... its a lot of fun being totally honest with the wife,
