I 23M work in an industry that is filled with family valued people and breeders. They cherish marriage, all are getting married or married young and have children very young, with one of the main guys I work with 32M planning his wedding in May to a girl he met on Hinge in January of last year. She’s a cool girl from what I can tell. Beside the point. More power to them, that’s cool if they like it.

For the most part it works out for them. This also has to do with the demographic of the towns they are from. Very small, beyond rural farming communities. Communities where SMV is very low in both male and females. Again, nothing wrong here, just how the dice is rolled.

I’m always hard pressed at work on why I choose to remain legally single and free of an LTR and child free. They know I frequently talk to women, and have game. I make great money, have a lot of toys, and do nothing in my free time but enjoy my hobbies, plate here and there, and lift. They tell me life can’t always be about work, yourself, and your possessions and that settling is all a part of it.

When they talk about their marriages and LTR’s I’m brutally annoyed. I’m reminded constantly and think of all the horrible stuff that can arise because they’re blinded by love and their partner, the word I’m looking for is that they seem 100% codependent on their women. The wives don’t work, and stay at home all day. They come in and bitch about the lack of putting out and the stereotypical marriage issues that come about shortly after getting married. Wow, they do a great job and making all this sound like a blast for me!

Other than maintaining my frame, which I’ve done since the beginning of my hire date into this department, how do I combat this? Surely I’m not the only one that has ran into getting razzed and harassed for choosing to be single and a bachelor. They treat me like an incel and it’s retarded.
