I’m a 59-year-old lifelong bachelor.

Long before anyone coined the terms “Red Pill” or “Men Going Their Own Way,” that was how I was living.

By my early 30s, I had already seen more than enough seemingly decent guys get dragged into family court, robbed of half their assets, and alienated from their children.

Being a rational man, I asked myself: “Would I risk the fruits of my life’s work on an investment that was 50 percent guaranteed to fail?”

So, here I am, alone — with about 5,000 books to keep me company. I may be alone, but I never get lonely.

Freedom comes at a price. Pay it willingly.

I hear you. Just consider that the 50% number is not as accurate given there are plenty of people that remarry, often more than once, and get divorced multiple times. Plenty of serial divorcers that skew that number that way.

But yeah, given men make decisions largely by logic and women make decisions largely by emotion, what rational man who really knows what faces men today in society w/r/t women, would ever logically conclude to voluntarily get married?

I appears to me that you've rationalized yourself out of the most important thing a woman can bring a man - children. My wife and I are not really happy together but I wouldn't trade my sons for your life.

I may be alone, but I never get lonely. It is not good for man to be alone. There is a joy that you will not experience unless you consider otherwise. There are blessings to be had that you are leaving on the table.
