Relationships != Happiness



Thought I'd share this guy with the misc.

Been watching this guy for some time now. He travels the world, works seasonal jobs, is no kids/no marriage crew, quit alcohol many years ago. Most people watch him for sobriety discussions tbh. Focuses on what he wants to do and tries to minimize worrying about the future. Does not identify with MGTOW but says he has similarities. Starting to get a little YouTube popularity these days though so he's making some $$$ recently, but there's years worth of videos where he's unpopular and having money struggles but still holding these same kind of views and discussions.

Cliffs on video:

- Businesses incentivize relationships/marriage/kids because it encourages consuming, going out to eat, spending more on holidays, etc.

- Family incentivize relationships/marriage/kids because they want grandkids / nieces / nephews.

- Society as a whole pushes it and makes fun of single people (cat ladies, hermits, witches)

- In your 20's it's OK to be single, people think you're probably just dating around. In your 30's+ people unjustly get conspiratorial about what might be wrong with you.

- True happiness comes from within and doing what you want to do. If that involves relationships/marriage/kids fine. If not, also fine.

- Feeling pressure and sad as a result of no relationships causes bad decisions in the dating world and being desperate. When really people need to self reflect and ask themselves "why do I feel the need to be with somebody?"

- One true benefit of relationships is that friends who get relationships or married can no longer hang out with you in the same way if you're single, especially friends of the opposite sex.

Thoughts misc?

Spoiler!

The world would be a better place if less people felt obligated to have kids. Too many proles breeding subhuman losers that leech off the system and go on to produce more losers with no chance of succeeding (deadfkinsrs)

If he were an attractive man, I would be more inclined to believe him since it's more a matter of choice. But since he's ugly, it's pure cope.

Pure cope. Who doesn't want someone that truly loves them?

The degree to which someone judges or finds evil in another..he himself is guilty to the same degree...even if is unconsciously

Women are incapable of loving any man that's not their child or family member (srs)

True, if you can't love one another without loving yourself without true love of loving thyself and not expecting someone else to love you without loving your inner self, then you cannot expect love in the form of love for the love you yearn for from another women that truly loves you for the love you give her without showing her love.
