Long story short, I want to bring to attention to other men out there about this thing which I suffered in my late teens - chronic bitch dependency. It's a disease that leaves a man addicted and dependent on a bitch. If that bitch decides to leave him/her, that person becomes an emotional track wreck and does nothing but lay around and mope.

It totally fucked with my friends, my health (both mental and psychological), my money and ultimately even my career. Some bitches were abusive where they'd gaslight, manipulate and drain a man of his potential to excel, this list goes on and we all had our fair share of experiences.

I'm in my early twenties now and realization dawned on me the full extent of my decisions. Of course, my life would have been two, three, even four folds times better if I had left them but now is not the time to wallow into another cesspool of self pity.

Trust me, from man to man, you do not need them. You're better off on your own making your own bank, hitting the gym, hitting other women and spending more time with the boys. Think of life as an RPG, what do you want to see at the end of the game before the credits started rolling, would you rather see more hours spent on doing unimportant tasks or see maxed out skills? The choice is yours.

No matter what woman comes into your life, she is never yours to begin with, it is only your turn. I say this because pussy is pussy, they look different but they all feel the same. Unless she has something significant to offer which benefits you, then keep that bitch around on a leash, yes, a leash because you must maintain your frame and be ready to drop her in a heartbeat.

Ultimately, the cure for this is to just say, "fuck this, I'm out" and I mean it. You have to cut them off no matter how emotionally attached they are to you. They're gonna get hurt? So what? You have to prioritize your mental and psychological well-being early on and cut it off before it develops into cancer. /u/legion327 is the role model that opened my eyes to how destructive women can be after reading through his two posts.

This was something I wish someone had told me when I was younger and I want others out there to be aware of this, whether you're new or a veteran in this sub.
