I can attract, I just choose MGTOW. Too many single moms and other problems out there.


Gee, why am I NOT surprised you are into that cultist, woman-hating outfit...MGTOW.

see: MGTOW

Nothing "woman hating" about MGTOW. If women do the same, people like you call them "feminists" and cheer them on.

All MGTOW does is say we are done chasing women. We will find other ways to occupy our time. We are done with the disaster that is the dating market.

Nope. Just a guy like Tesla or the Wright Brothers who finds other pursuits for his time.

Wanting to love and be loved is a fundamental linchpin of being a human being.

Turning your back on that is just plain weird.

You're probably just "damaged goods," having been unable to "play the game" successfully.,

I don't see the point. When you don't want kids you kind of have to go MGTOW. Way more fun to do things on your own, what you want and when you want. I find "the game" childish, weird, and a total waste of time.

Fair enough, but...do you actually LOVE anyone and does anyone LOVE you?

No, I'm not talking about Trump...

Family. All I need.

I'll be dead in 15 years or less most likely then who cares?

Having a partner whom you love and who loves you makes life easier, or so they say.

Sounds like you aren't even looking, which is a shame: "what could have been..."

But my good buddy is like you in that he gave up and doesn't try to meet anybody; twice-divorced he has health issues he'd find embarrassing when sleeping with a mate, i.e.sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome.

But what's your excuse for turning your back?

What could have been? If I had a wife and kids I probably would have killed myself years ago.

My excuse reason is that I never wanted kids. Not for a minute in my life. Finding a good woman who does not want kids was next to impossible when I was younger. By my mid-20s finding one that was not a single mom was hard in itself. The others were on a mission to have kids.

The few who did not want kids were nutjobs.

The other reason is how dangerous marriage is for men. Financial wipeout late in life way too possible.

No thanks.
