Is my current situation feasible? (self.MGTOW)

quasimoto127 が 投稿

I'll keep this brief: I'm a full time student at a community college, I also work 20 hours a week, and I'm fairly busy at the moment. I've also swallowed the red pill about 1.5 years ago, and with each passing day I move towards the mgtow school of thought.

I feel like dealing with girls (and just drama s in general) is a waste of time. I would rather read books, watch tv, smoke pot, etc. I have friends, but due to my lack of time, I'd rather just be alone. I'm doing great academically so far this semester. The game itself is tricky, and I'd rather not participate.

My question: Is this feasible? Could I live my entire life from here on out as a ghost of society? I'm only 20 years old, but I feel this is the direction in which my life is going.

What do you mean, "is it feasible"? You do know this is a MGTOW subreddit, right? Our whole thing is about avoiding dealing with women and focusing on self-enjoyment/improvement. Of course we're going to say yes. That's like asking a cat's opinion on catnip.

This is true, I'm just preaching to the choir. I just needed assurance in the ubiquitous face of adversity. Thanks.

Flag on the play. Personal foul. Use of the word "ubiquitous" in an attempt to show off intelligence. 15 yard penalty. Please repost in /r/iamverysmart

This is not a sub to excuse being anti-social. It is okay to be aware of the truths to be found in TRP and MGTOW, it is not okay to use those truths to justify being a weirdo shut-in.

Read books, watch TV, smoke pot. No problem. But also eat right, exercise, go outside and talk to other human beings, call your fucking mother.

You are 20 years old. The lessons for you on MGTOW should be not to avoid women, but to avoid the long term problems associated with women. STDs. Pregnancy. Marriage. But you need to participate in the collective experience for a while before making up your mind whether or not you actually want to distance yourself from it.

What you're talking about is hiding under your bed because society isn't fair. That's a child's response. This is MEN going their own way.

Thanks, this makes sense. I shouldn't be rationalizing isolation.

There you go brother! See, you're gonna be fine. I hate drama too, but remember, in life it's not the crisis that gets you, it's your reaction to said crisis.

You said you are doing well academically. That's great! Focus on your studies now. The more skills you can learn as a young man (and it's easier to learn when you are younger) the more in demand you will be out in the world. It's a big advantage.

Thanks again. I just have to keep outcome independence in mind when dealing with people.

Social isolation can be a downward spiral. You don't have to be Mr Popular but having a friend or two that you sometimes hangout with isn't a bad idea.

I have that, I just have a lack of time. I'm certainly content, but at times I feel like I could be doing things better. I think I just needed someone to assure that I'm not crazy.

You don't sound crazy yet. But if you ghost everyone then you could well go crazy. Humans are social animals and your brain needs the stimulation it receives from interaction with other people. On top of that having connections can open up career opportunities and other benefits that you just won't get as a loner.

Take it from someone who knows. I have Schizoid personality disorder which makes me want to be alone ALL the time, but when I give in to it and spend too much time alone my symptoms get worse. After enough time alone they get significantly worse fast.

It's up to you. You can try to go ghost but if you start to feel depressed/lonely you should find some friends.

Do what makes you happy. Live for yourself.

I'm in more or less the same situation you are. 21, 3rd year university, devoured the red pill. What I can say, since I don't know about your history with women but assuming it's like mine, is that the urge for companionship in whatever sense (call it the need to socialize) is normal. That need is something that I think is hardwired into us as humans. We aren't sedentary creatures by nature. However, it is very possible to bring things into your life to fulfill those needs, manginas call this a wife. Personally I opted for getting a dog since they respond to you in an emotional way but can't divorce rape you. Beyond that, find something or a couple somethings you enjoy doing and save up some money, gardening has served me well as a hobby since I get back a measurable reward but this could also be cars, motorcycles, reading, video games, whatever.

I'd also recommend reading up on different lifestyle paths like Confucianism or Buddhism for other ideas on how to live your life.

Edit: This might seem strange and preachy but the Apostle Paul's letters in the bible were from the perspective of a man who chose a path and followed it while remaining celibate. Some of the letters have some good advice.

In a word, is it sustainable? Hell yeah, and sharing it with a woman is not at all necessary.
