I was raised by a feminist mother, rarely saw my defeated father. Had
no male role models during my upbringing. Believed everything my mother
taught me. All my experiences (female teachers, no church, sports, male
social contact) re-enforced the same behavior.
I've recently began to fix myself at age 25... A high fat diet, 10,000IUs of vitamin D3 a day and plenty of manosphere reading.
A
few weeks ago I suggested to my 50 year old mother, that after having
100~ boyfriends in the last 20 years who were not good enough, perhaps
her standards are too high? Perhaps the crushing sense of loneliness and
her constant depression are not worth bearing to 'hold out' for the
perfect man. Take her current boyfriend, let's call him Paul, I don't
know if that's his actual name but they're all called Paul at the end of
the day. Paul earns a shit ton of money, which is good for a man. I
understand a man's desire to make a lot of money and a women's desire
for a man who has a lot of money, security and all that. My mother's
complain is that he doesn't do enough around HER house. Like he's
suppose to come and mow the fucking lawn. I told her, this guy likes
you, for some strange reason, marry him, you've both had kids already,
let him go to work, you work part time and take care of the house, hell
you've done that all you're life while working fulltime! It will be so
much easier when you don't even need to work, actually build up some
retirement savings of which you have none, enjoy the 4 odd vacations a
year he seems to have and try to be happy. Stop finding faults. Maybe
start looking forward to grandchildren or something?
Sorry I'm ranting. The Western world is all kinds of fucked up. |
