When people's hate on certain topics turns toward ambivalence/hate/jealousy , ITS TIME TO CHARGE AHEAD.
When it turns towards acceptance, ITS TIME TO TREAD CAREFULLY
When it turns to mass worship, ITS TIME TO QUIT. Move unto other endeavors/location.
This.
Also, when they see your lifestyle is so fun, it makes them question their entire chore beliefs and their decisions in life and doing so make them very incomfortable. It reminds them of how they are stuck where they are, in a J.O.B. they hate, in a relationship they can't stand, unfullfilled, living pay cheque to pay cheque, dragging themselves from monday to friday to the office to a soul crushing, mind numbing, useless dead end job or worse, that they put a ring on a girl who went from sweet and slim to a fat, self entitled mega bitch and with 1 or 2 unbearably spoilt little devils for kids? And then, you come and tell them how you are living it up, traveling at a whim, to wherever your fancy takes you, for weeks, if not months a time, with short notice, with no one to answer but yourself, banging hot exotic girls? No doubt there's going to be a shit ton of haters.
I get this hate and get questioned all the time, so much that I don't even bother as I've become immune to it and half expect it nowadays. lol There's not one single family gathering where relatives and close family, including siblings always ask me to grow up, get a normal life like everyone else, in a normal career, and to settle down. Oh boy, how much I hate with an immense passion that term, to settle down. Even the sound of it makes me want to jump off a cliff before doing it. I equate "settling down" with letting go of my dreams and to accept what little crumbles I can get. lol
Countless people have been cut off my from my circle so much that whenever i return home, I only have a handful of like minded guys I can freely talk about my past travels and future ones. The ones that are deeply buried into their normal, mainstream existence feel heavily threatened by my total refusal of their way of living. And when I tell them about the wonders of Asia, the delicacies of South America, they look at me and all they have to say, is but then why are all these people dying to come to Canada or the US, in a condescending tone? I don't even bother and a couple of times, replied back, for what? to end up in a miserable position like you? stuck for life to a mortgage you can't afford and a fat, bitchy pork of a wife that rules and controls your every move? Needless to say it didn't go well with those guys...I wonder why...lol...It's really ridiculous, you see alphas who end up as the biggest pussies out there, where they have to literally ask the Boss permission to go put gas in the car, to spend their own freaking money that they work like dogs for while the fat hog is sitting at home or having sushi with her equally fat bitchy friends for lunch on HIS dime? What's wrong with guys sometimes? makes you want to bitch slap the crap out of them to wake up from this nightmare. Anyone of you guys have friends like that? How do you deal with it?I simply cut them off and I won't surprised to see them crawling back to me after they've been ass raped in court after the Boss left them? lol Truly sad....
As to the infinitely superior quality of women in those parts of the world, I don't even talk about it anymore. I don't even mention it to my once boys as they are way too burried into the rabid and too beta to even think of getting out. it's not that I haven't tried to show them the light and even invited them to come party with me in my trips. I even offered to pay all the expenses of a couple of guys to come once to Brasil and another to Thailand and even on my last trip to HKG/China/Phils, I told one of my buddies that I'd be taking care of all their expenses as long as they pay for their airfare and that I would garantee them to have the time of their life and see a different, a much better, more fun and more fullfilling way to live, but they still managed to chicken out at the end. Oh well, they're loss, certainly not mine.
Great thread and awesome post OG, I've been thinking and going through about this very same topic continously for the past god knows how long. You and others in here perfectly nailed it.
Someone, I believe it was brianmark, wrote that he'd take traveling to some 3rd world country for a long time over a new shiny Mercedes. Me too brother every freaking day and thrice on sundays! I almost bought a shiny either C class or a 328 BMW last summer and it woud have set me back about 50Gs as I was getting a lot of pressure from family that I'd needed to have a car. Boy was I right that I got back to my senses and didn't buy it!!! 50K up front+ at least 1k in insurance and expenses for the car each month? All of that for what? To impress people I couldn't care less about, with women who behave like frat boys and are fat and display a huge fattitude and sense of entitlement, where taxes are through the roof? In a place that I can't stand and I feel I'm suffocating each day that I'm here? Hell freaking no way!!!! I'll take that 50G's and travel and live for 2 years in GZ, China to build a lucrative global business while enjoying an even sicker lifestyle or live in a tropical country either in SEA or in SA or even in some industrical shithole in CCCP.
Bottom line is, when you start getting heat and hated on, rejoice in it as it tells you without any shadow of a doubt, that you are in the right path and that the small minded people, are trying their damnest to bring you down cause they hate seeing others raise above their mediocrity and go onto live life on their own terms!
Keep traveling and be thirsty brothers and keep on banging those exotic girls around the globe!
