(I'm sorry, English is not my first language)
I discovered the MGTOW subreddit by accident in 2016. I was searching on Google for other people like me that don't want house, children or marriage. I felt like those things were used as a trap against men, in my point of view. Since then, I swallow the red pill and I read MGTOW everyday.
I have been with my girlfriend for 16 years, we are in our low 30's, and we know each other since elementary school (we were in the same classroom and we were good friends, even at that time). I know her since I am 8 yo.
Very recently, she left me, and she announced that she has been cheating on me for several months, with an older 'Chad' that is close to us and her family. That 'Chad' was ready to leave everything and live with her, and I know it is true because I know him. However, she finally said that she realised that it had no sense, that she felt lonely without me, that she loves me, and that she can accept to live with me without house, child or marriage.
We came back together, and we discuss very often of our hypothetical future. I scenario 1, we can break up again, and both live our life our own ways, but we are both unable to do that. We are so used to live together, we still have fun and sex together, and we don't think that it is possible to create real, strong bonds with another person. To be separated would feel like we are separated from a brother or sister for life. In scenatio 2, we continue without child, and we both think that it will lead to a very repeatitive, boring and predictable life. I know that she will be depressed for life without a child. In scenario 3, we have a child, which will bring new challenges, new love in our (and my) life, but it is very risky (child suppport, cheating girlfriend, nagging, etc.).
At this point, it seems that I will probably bend and accept scenario 3, which is the complete opposite of the MGTOW philosophy. I though that I was strong enough to live alone, but the emptiness I felt when she left me seems to be unbearable for me (I found a good and short summary of the emptiness I feel in https://redd.it/5v0bi7). All in all, I am not the strong, 'lonely warrior' I wanted to be. At least, after reading MGTOW for months, I am clearly aware of the risks I will encouter with scenario 3...
