If the money for the work is good who gives a fuck who's watching.

I've read the majority of the sidebar the fascination of how much it makes sense looking back at my failed LTR is astounding.

I think this happens to everyone who picks up The Red Pill, it certainly happened to me, the more i read, the more i noticed my mistakes on past relationships.

First part, you won't like:

wished I'd of picked

I would of, is a nonsensical statement, you meant to say, "have"; 'would have' would've. There is no such thing as would of.

Looks like the repair for her parents was a covert contract. Don't do covert contacts. Were you doing it for free? If so, fuck them for using your obviously valuable male talents for free. Were you being paid? If so, was it reasonable? If so, and you need money, do the repairs.

I thought there was an obvious link to covert contracts on the sidebar, can't see it, might be cause mobile. Hopefully someone will link.

I wouldnt do the schedulled work. I'd call her parents as clients and explain that I'm not able to deliver for private reasons. If there is a signed agreement, pay the penalty and move on. If there is nothing on paper and it was all "a favor", just walk.

I would not do the work at all. At the end of the day, why were you really going to do the work? You were going to do the work because you thought it would make your GF happy. Sure, you might have also thought that you liked her parents and it would be a nice thing to do to help them out, but at the end of the day your PRIMARY REASON for doing it was to please your GF.

She's no longer your GF, so your primary reason for doing the work no longer exists. You're not her bitch, you don't owe her or her parents anything. Don't give a fuck and move on from it.

LTR of a year ended it last night / I get home to my phone being blown up. I'm meant to be doing work on the house for her parents

You were in REALLY deep if she expects to dump you and have you continue to work for her parents.

I feel like a bad person because I agreed to do the work and now the situation has changed.

The only thing to feel bad about is agreeing to do the work in the first place. Perhaps drop them a line saying "no longer appropriate to help you out since X dumped me".

In future - do nothing for other people, and ESPECIALLY do nothing for friends of friends, family of friends or friends of family. You never even see them again, they won't even know to thank you.

You don't need a reason to say no. You don't need to sacrifice yourself for other people.

I feel like if i do the work she wins either way. W

Oh don't do the work. Shouldn't have even agreed to do it while in the relationship. Alpha males do not sacrifice for women, only betas do that. Stay selfish - it's weirdly attractive to women. You'll get there with this, and hugely freeing when you realise that the less you pay and the less you invest and the less you commit the more attractive you are.
