>there was actually a point in your life where you thought

same, i was 15 then and 24 now. somewhere around 20 i realized i wasnt gonna make it socially.

>you grew out of 4chan but you're stuck here forever due to being here for so many years
By grew out, I mean became older than the average age of current userbase. ;_;

Doubt it, there's at least one confirmed 42 year old guy on /x/, some tripfag, and plenty of people on /r9k/ have admitted to being in their mid- to late thirties. A bunch of oldfags never left.

>>25658318
Do you know what the term 'average' means, anon?

>>25658575
I suppose I overlooked it.
Don't feel too bad, though - we'll all reach the same age as you, too, and we'll all still be here. You just got there first, but we're following right behind you.

>>25658175
>became older than the average age
not mentally, though

>>25658107
Kinda like this guy. Was 16 then and 25 now. I realised somewhere @ 21 that shit's not gonna work out for me, even though I still tried somewhat after and I still do.

I like wasting some time here, been doing it for a long time. What's so wrong with that? I don't consider myself a social retard.

There's more efficient ways to like spending your time doing things.

Not being a social retard doesn't mean you aren't a failure.

Look at me: sure, I can function normally, for the most part. I can drive, order food or make telephone calls without breaking down into tears, dress decently and have proper hygene. Does that make me a success story? Not at all... Still living with parents, still in a wageslave job, no future or career prospects, no money... A failure, in every sense of the word.

A guy I know showed it to me in Cali. Browsed it a bit for fun. Stopped after that. Now I've turned into a beta chump and I'm using it as a main "source" to "communicate" with women who do not even really like me. So yea, flashy life yo!

i am such a fucking loser it hurts

That's a given. I can only hope some of you mature by then but obviously not every individual will improve.

I started browsing when I was 16..I stopped when I was 21 because I thought I was going to go to college, make friends, maybe find a qt, and no longer be a loner scrolling through /r9k/ so for about a year I didn't go on the site at all. But 3 years later Im still a friendless loser so here I am. It's funny because each time I come back after a long break shyts changed.

>>25658776
Sure, but i don't live here either. All in moderation.

>>25658830
I don't think that I am either. Live in other city with friends, okay social life, studying medicine. Doing okay I guess.

Well, my friend, you sound like the very definition of normalfag. Don't even know why you bother coming on here, then.
