I've been thinking really hard about posting this as I'm not sure what I'm looking for from the MGTOW community.
I discovered the redpill shortly after my divorce and have never looked back. After a few years of thinking about this I decided that going MGTOW was the only choice left for me (was it ever a choice at all?).
Ever since then I've been focusing on rebuilding my finances and have enjoyed the freedom of living on my own so much that I could never go back. I also left my country of origin and have been living abroad for the past 5 years.
Unfortunately there's one thing that is keeping me from having peace of mind. I'm an only child, my father passed away 15 years ago and my only family left is my mother. She's in her late 60's and living from a pension in my country of origin. I won't say the name of the country but suffice to say it is probably the worst place to be right now in the western world.
I have no intention of ever returning to that "place". I only see her via skype every week but have not seen her since I left. I have no friends there and no ties whatsoever except my mother. I contribute whenever I can and help her out with some money whenever she needs to, but other than that she's pretty much on her own.
I'm not gonna talk much about the past and what my mother is like (she was no NAWALT to my dad, I'll tell you that) suffice to day that she did "redpill" me a long time ago. Both her and my dad constantly told me from a young age that I cannot rely on anyone (both my dad and mom were estranged from their families) that I am all alone and that no one owes me anything. They were poor but hard working and tried their best to give me a good education and experiences that only wealthy people had. After my divorce my mom pretty much knew that I was going to be alone for the rest of my life and has not bothered me about children or marriage since.
So here's my dilemma: I'm not sure what to do about her. Honestly the thought of seeing her age alone in a country were she might as well die if she gets a serious illness or her being the victim of violent crime just completely kills me inside, I'm not sure I can live with myself if I let that happen.
On the other hand there's the possibility of her coming to live with me in a developed country. Here there's a guarantee that she will at least not suffer as much as she ages. I can guarantee her some dignity in her old age. This of course does not come free. It will be a significant cost for me, and on top of that I will have to sacrifice my MGTOW lifestyle to look after her, means more expenses, moving, and the cost of the visa alone will obliterate half of my savings that have taken years to rebuild.
As you can see I'm between a rock and a hard place.
As I stated above I'm not sure what I'm looking for other than sharing my story, I welcome any advice or thoughts you guys may have regarding my situation, I'm sure I'm not the only MGTOW going through this or similar experiences.
Thanks guys in advance.
