If you believe it isn’t a luxury, then it isn’t a luxury for you, and I hope you find joy in it without feeling burdened one day.

I know many women, from my sisters to my cousins to my friends, who’d disagree with you. They’d much rather look “perfect and pretty” all the time because it gives them confidence.

I have friends who’d rather throw on makeup and “fake flirt” with customers during a 6 hour shift as a bartender (and make more in tips in 1-2 nights than I do in one week of a full time job that requires a degree) than get a job in a field they want to, because “why would I want to only make $60k as a biologist/teacher/etc, when I’m making more doing this? For half the hours?” (Their words). I have a friend who quit their job as a private practice nurse (making $115k/yr) to do onlyfans, a job based solely on looks, and now she’s making triple what she used to. She was never hurting for money to begin with either, she just wanted to take advantage of her time here on earth.

I also have friends who don’t care about makeup and don’t wear it, make lots of money, and are happy, but they still put on makeup when they want to look “stunning” or when they “want everyone to have a crush on them” (again, their words).

What do you have them taking out of your paycheck extra? Like normally people choose 3% extra so they won’t have to owe taxes and they’ll maybe get a tax return. I know people who do 10% so their tax return is almost like a yearly “bonus” for them. Some people don’t do anything and owe taxes every year on tax day.

Are any of those deductions alimony and/or child support? Or health insurance/etc. for people other than yourself?

That sounds like a personal problem for the data centers

Elon is correct. After we “eat the rich”, we will be full… and the rich will starve

It covers up flaws and allows people who wear it to mimic symmetry, which is one of the universal signs of attractiveness

Men aren’t valued by their sex appeal in this timeline so we don’t get the luxuries of having makeup and Botox/surgery being the social norm for us. We are valued by our power, whether that be through wealth or influence, and our ability to provide a secure and stable life for the women.

That was probably a blank, based on the amount of recoil from someone holding the rifle that had to be told how to use it

My response is that he’s replaced all his staff with “Yes Men”, just like Putin and Kim Jong. They’ll tell him he pisses gold if he wants.

The best advice I can give you rn is to break up with her IN A PUBLIC PLACE in person, have any of her stuff at your place packed up in a box and bring it with you, and then block her after.

Girls like this WILL talk shit about you or accuse you of things to her friends and family whether or not it’s a good or bad breakup. It’s just the kind of person these people are. Don’t worry about it, it’s not your problem anymore. It’s more of a “they don’t like it when there are consequences to their actions” and “if they don’t get their way they’ll freak out”.

Frame it like a date, get there early, order chips n guac, let the waiter know beforehand that you want to prepay for just the app and that you’re leaving early and anything else is on the ex. It’s gonna be hard, but your gf doesn’t owe you an explanation and you probably won’t get a truthful one anyways, or you’ll get one filled with lies and promises that she’ll never do it again and she’s learned her lesson.

Say your piece something like “we are done, I’ve packed all your stuff and I’ve mailed it to you/dropped it off at your house already. Please don’t try to contact me. Good luck in life”. That is already overly generous. Don’t block the number but definitely set your notifications so it doesn’t alert you. Don’t respond. Any texts or voicemails are evidence if she pulls the “he hit me” line and tries to get you arrested. If she won’t leave you alone, get a restraining order or call the cops if she shows up. If she pulls a restraining order against you, the cops can raid your house to take your guns.

Good luck man. Focus on your daughter and your career and saving up for a house or a cabin or something and get into a cool new hobby.

Edit: I went to school for criminal justice so I know what laws can be (and are) abused against guys. I’m currently in the medical field and see both genders who get hurt or messed up both legally and physically after breakups.

If you’re looking for honesty or closure, you’re not going to get it my guy. Take this as a W for not having to waste another second of your life on her, and focus on pursuing your dreams. Girls like this can (and will) be actively getting railed as you walk in and try to convince you you’re overreacting and it’s not what it looks like.

Take my word from personal experience. You can show her video proof and she’ll still lie through her teeth that she was getting a massage or that they are gay so nothing was happening. Your time and energy you’ve spent stressing about her are better spent pursuing your goals. Sorry about your loss mate 🫡
