That's basically what monks are

A non-destructive form of MGTOW

A lot of monastics were men who couldn't find wives, it has to be said.

Is that a decent reason for joining an order...?

Probably not

Is the outcome preferable to others?

Most assuredly

No, though it's tempting. A vocation should be done joyfully.

I did have a moment where a vocation did seem like a life much less complicated

But I've only really been in the club for two months, I shouldn't be making rash decisions like that.

Wouldn't mind being a Lay Dominican

YES, that line you drew is a hill you should be willing to die on

I have heard of this phenomenon

For lack of a better term, but it has been called the "shit-test"

She will test you from time to time to see if you are still capable of handling her

There was a time I did have a desire to be a priest. Though I did have a desire, I wasn't called for it. Like how someone wants to be an artist, but can't paint well.

I have the reverse going on haha

I am called to be a priest, but i don't wanna

I'm going to, but mostly just to be obedient

I believe joy will come as doing the Lord's will is what brings us joy ultimately

Then again, it's not as much about me. I have a Church to fix, souls to save

Much more important than whatever is going on inside of me

I'm fairly certain God is calling me to be a priest or a monk, but I still have much discerning to do.

I've considered it myself

Next time I talked to my priest I was gonna ask him how to become one

So I can consider it

The priesthood will pull you in they want u bad

Maybe good maybe bad idk

Any good sources on calls and discernment?
