I've been lurking on reddit for a couple of years now but I've never felt the urge to post until now. I recently stumbled upon the the Red Pill sub and from there, Mgtow. Since my discovery I've been devouring the information in the side bar and the top posts. This community gives voice to the things I have been thinking my entire adult life. I plan on posting some of my observations and maybe a few anecdotes a little later on but for now I will just introduce myself. I'm 30 now, I spent most of my 20's in various relationships. I've run the gamut between relatively "good" girls and what I've heard referred to as "Lucifer's Daughters". The worst of the LDs was actually the best thing that ever happened to me, but that is an entire post unto itself.
The common theme in all of these relationships, regardless of the girl, is that after the initial honeymoon phase I felt bored and trapped. My personal time and my freedom have always been the most important things to me.
This sub talks a lot about the financial costs of a relationship with a woman (and we should), but for me it was the endless inane shit that these women would make me do. The artificial social events, the shopping, and the trash TV were giant time sinks. My entire relationship history follows a pattern. I commit, feel trapped and then back out slowly. I've been told I have commitment issues and I thank God every day for those issues, they may have saved my life. I apologize for the long wall of text. This is my first ever reddit post so if you see an issues with this post or have any suggestions let me know. I'm going to be posting quite a bit in the next few days because I'm enjoying a well deserved break from work. I've been going my own way for over a year now without the MGTOW title. It's nice to find some like minded people in a plugged in world. Cheers.
