How do I catch up to people my age?

>f, 20
>always been shy and reserved, complete introvert
>due to moving schools a lot, anxiety, depression, etc, i never adjusted anywhere
>no friends
>never had a bf, never even held hands with a guy
>turn autistic around men
>never been to a party or club
>don't drink or smoke
>all i do is stay home, or go to the gym
>such a shut in that i learn new slang every time i interact with people or watch a reality show
>not really a social person or someone who enjoys going out but i can't help get jealous of people who have friendship groups and do stuff together

I really just want to fit in and to be like everyone else now, but I don't know where to start. I can't just go out into the street and suddenly be a part of the world. I'll never be the party-type, all I want is a comfy happy life and a relationship, but i'm so inexperienced I'll either be too slow for guys, or get played. Without friends, how do i even meet people?

you sound like me.

are you attractive, can you be my gf?

try finding friends on the internet, sites with people you like. just react on comments or posts like this and if they react, do the same. perhaps the relation will last. those friends will teach you how to make friends irl, with words and by practicing with 'em

She's concerned about you because you're always acting like such a sad sack.

She's trying to boost your confidence because she thinks you need it right now.

That was her intent in sending this message.

seriously. how do i get laid?
how do i get from watchcing a girl's profile and pictures, to having her in my bed?
how do i get from spotting a cute stranger in the park, to having my dick moving inside her?

i had to get cucked in order to recieve a few lessons, that is how bad i am at aproaching girls.

like, i need to know the whole game. i've been in my one and only relationship for too long and now i'm single, have an apartment, a decent job, but i have no girls to have sex with. and i worry this situation would extend for too long and i remain knowing nothing.

i am a 6.5/10, maybe 7 if i hit the gym. but even there, how the hell do i set one up and fuck a girl i like??

>inb4 just talk to girls
>inb4 just ask them out

tried it. didnt know what to do afterwards. do you understand what i am saying?? i have the girl next to me in the movies. what then? a girl agrees to have dinner with me. what the fuck then? i need game.

these things cannot be explained, you either know what to do through social conditioning or you don't

so your best bet is to gain experience points and go through trial/error until you learn these things

it's not the case because I see him being active on groupchat all the time and don't get private messages from other members

How do I overcome shame? Should I overcome it?

I've started considering recently that being able to "ride out" or "get over" shameful things you've done in life isn't a sign of strength but of weakness.

I myself haven't done anything illegal, but I've done very embarrassing things in the past when taking my anger and frustration out on people who didn't deserve it (i.e. people I often didn't know) by criticizing or mocking them. I feel such intense shame now, even though they probably don't know it was me, that I feel like the best thing for me to do is never post on the internet again and instead atone for my stupidity and past malice by living a life of humble subservience or something.

Do you know what I'm getting at? I feel like I'm this terrible person and I can't live with the idea that I can't right past wrongs, especially when they have harmed others or harmed myself in a way that can't be repaired.

Does anyone relate to what I'm saying? Please post if so.

Thank you.

It's good OP that you are able to self-analyse yourself and practice some common sense humility that lacks for many in this world, but there is no good in beating yourself up over it.

I used to do this. From ages 16-19, I was depressed, angsty and hated myself because I quit some afterschool club where there was a young girl that I only later realised might have been into me, since she random kissed me on the cheek once and I was the only guy in that class. I hated myself for quitting that club and never ending up in relationship with her. I listened to sad music and vividly imagined me still back in that tiny arts/crafts club, laughing with her and complimenting her taste in music or some corny stuff like that.

Of course, I know what you are thinking, OP, and yes, I have done worse shit in my life too. I once dated a girl, and when we were making out, she slipped on ice, and I was laughing at that instead of helping her up, and that creeped her out and she never contacted me again. Even more later on, I've done shit like where I was really drunk on a bus once and stared at some old lady (some uncontrollable behavior) and later bus driver yelled at me for smelling from alcohol and wanted to kick me out in the next stop. There's some more, but leave it at that.

I've not felt actually much regret at the later ones, because the adolescent regrets were so fucking intense that my ability to fuss over later stuff has diminished.

What I am getting at, is that you should acknowledge that you were in the wrong and genuinely feel sorry for the people who had to put up with this, but don't beat yourself up forever. Just learn from the mistake and don't repeat it.

I've been feeling very lonely lately and I need to stop it. I'm doing very well in all other aspects of my life - I have a 4.0 studying what I love, I'm spending plenty of time with my friends, and I'm in the best physical shape I've ever been in; the problem is I can't stop wishing I had a girl to spend time with.
I used to have really strong feelings for my closest female friend, but they subsided once I realized we were not at all compatible and, after spending six or more hours a day with her for weeks at a time, I realized she's actually pretty boring. Problem is, she's now the only female interaction I have and I'm starting to see her romantically again.
The only solution to this that I can think of is to call up an old friend/fwb (it was a weird situation), and start being intimate with her again. I haven't spoken to her in months, but I know she's single and I know she'd be up for hanging out if I was. Problem is, I feel like I'm using her and she's a very good person that's interested in something serious and long term, which I'm not interested in with her at all.

So what the hell do I do? I'd be up for meeting other people, but honestly I don't know anyone that I'd be interested in between my classes, the various clubs I'm a part of, or even at my church.

You seem to be treating having a gf as something that completes you, a necessity to being happy, when actually having a gf should be a bonus to an already happy life if its to be successful and enjoyable. That's why oneitis is so dangerous, because it compromises your entire life and wellbeing for the sake of a vagina. Do you have any friends? Go out and meet other people so that if it doesn't turn out well you still have other possible life routes open.
>>
>>18555542
>You seem to be treating having a gf as something that completes you, a necessity to being happy
No, I don't view having a gf as anything like that. I honestly just crave romantic physical intimacy.
>Do you have any friends?
Like I said in the OP, everything else is going very well for me and I have plenty of friends, but they can't provide this one last thing I'm looking for.

How do I get motivated to make art like I was when I was a kid?
I've been able to draw roughly since I could pick up a crayon, but I got so pessimistic growing into an adult about how it'll never make me rich or anything.
>Does porn really fuck up your motivation and creativity that badly? I literally don't draw anymore despite the fact that I'm actually very talented at it.

Graphic designer and artfag here,

Unless it's 14th century and you are hired by european royal court to draw portraits all day, art is hardly about making money. Art is what you pursue in spare time, or do as volunteer to some cause, show off to others, to decorate spaces, to win a competition, to please the art teacher or to feel like Da Vinci for a minute there. Trust me on this, I have done plenty of painting, drawing, traditional graphical techniques, sculpture and other stuff that classifies as "art" to most people. Hell, even drew a young nude woman in art school for one anatomy drawing session.

I think what you mean is how to make money from creative expression? Because creativeness can extend to many fields. You can be a mathematician, business, marketer, event organizer and still exercise plenty of creativity in a sense that it's up to your unique way of problem solving how you make a solution happen. "Art" or making music is no different - you want to create a beautiful thing and you need to know the rules, technical skills, buy equipment, have access to an audience and have connections to make an exhibition or a gig happen.

Don't worry about "not being able to draw", there's youtube tutorials these days where you can learn to draw pieces to look like monochrome photography in it's accuracy of detail. Hard part is, how to make creativity something that you sustain. Certainly, even if you draw like a God, you still struggle to get paid, because either there are 100 middlemen who rip you off from your fair share, or you just flat out find that nobody will buy art that is less than 10 dollars.

Try to be more creative in what you do best, OP, and you will be a very good "artist", truly. World needs more people who think creatively and find creative solutions, and less people who can draw a watercolor piece but who are prudish and boring in personality.

I don't know what the hell happened but in the last 5 years or so I simply can't enjoy video games that much anymore. Everything I play feels like a damn chore and a time sink...
I feel like (even though I can barely even remember anymore) when I played games a decade ago it was incredible always fun discovering a new game, but I feel everything nowadays is unfulfilling and I cant figure out whether it's the games or me... The thing that's bothering me most is that I feel like I can't just move on and there's this big emptiness in me.

What's wrong with me /adv/? Anyone else have the same problem?

Yeah I have that same issue, no games are exciting to me anymore and the ones I played daily seemed like chores. I think the reason it happened to me is because I realized that these games are getting me no where in life and that I wasn't bettering myself by playing them. But then again that's all I used to do all day, I don't know what your situations is though

I used to like gaming a lot when I was a teen, but I dropped it like a year ago in my early twenties now since it begun to feel like a huge waste of time.

I am not a moralfag or anything, I smoke cigarettes daily and like to binge drink alcohol occasionally, but with videogames, I have started to feel that time spent playing them can be used on learning something new, or talking to someone on internet. Besides all that, when I do try to pick up some of my favourites (Mass Effect series, Total War series are some of my biggest favourites I have replayed a lot) I find myself getting bored and playing through the game begins to feel like a chore. I have tried to get into new games but my computer is old as shit and doesn't run the new ones, and the new ones that do work have no meaningful content and are either kiddie-tier or super simplistic. I have enjoyed some online games in past but when I have tried them in my 20's, they are loaded with cheaters, hackers, scammers or total newbs who spout stupid memes or beg money constantly.

This is not a sad thought, I feel pretty content about ditching this habit, but it feels like a part of my childhood is in the past now, which gets me nostalgic sometimes.

They dont really care about downloaders to begin with. They care about people who upload/seed.

>>18555313
>peak
A peak is a point that is both higher than everything before it and higher than everything after it.
So unless it's very poor phrasing, what's meant is that it gets worse and worse until about three days in, but after the third day (roughly), it starts getting better again.

TL;DR: if you're at day 3 and feeling horrible, you'll likely start feeling progressively better from tomorrow on.

Its been months ago now but I still keep thinking about it.
I want to ask her if I ever had a chance with her or if she was just teasing me.

Should I ask her or not? It would help me understand the situation.

Im quite autistic and have a very hard time understanding others.

My gf sent me two texts after we got into a mini argument over her asking me if lunching with a guy she has known since high school (10 years?), who she said has a gf, both of which I've never met, was ok.

I said no because she told me this guy used to like her, and I don't want my girl hanging out solo with another guy. I think it's extremely disrespectful.

She sent me this:

im not going to ask anyone what they will do or what they think because i dont want ppl to think there r probs in my life. im so used to hanging out with my friends, whether i c them every day, once a mnth or once a yr. thts how i am, how ive spent my time and grown. now, ive divided that time up and given u a huge part of it. but there r times where i want to go bck to how things were, go bck to tht routine. and it feels like ur jst trying so hard to cut me with my life in the past and focus everything on u. u didnt make me the way i am tdy, it was myself, and my experiences with others. i appreciate the effort u put into us, but i dont want to stop what i was doing jst bcuz im with u. i want to introduce u to how things r in my life. but it kept feeling like ur pulling me further and further away from it.

i dont want to hang out with my friends because i cant get lunch with u, or coffee with u. i know if i asked u, ud b down, and i love spending time with u2. but ive known these ppl for much longer than ive known u. their impact on my life has been so much more because they were sort of the only 1s who stuck arnd throughout my teenage yrs. doesnt matter a guy or a girl, if i still call them a friend they mustve had a positive impact in my life at one point. i dont want to make u upset :( i hope this explains it a bit..i thought it was a totally cool beans thing to do :'(

Am I in the wrong here? Should I let her go meet him?

Stop speaking over texts for starters, man up and go speak to her.

Don't let this dude cuck you. Stand your ground.

She asked for your permission, she obviously knew she's in the wrong but asked you, so that when you said no, she could turn it around and make you out to be the bad guy.

Be a man and stand your ground.

You're not stopping her from seeing her friends, you're stopping her from developing romantic relations with another man and cucking you.

So I've been working at this shithole for like 4 years and even though my pay has continued to slowly increase, I've only asked for a raise once (only went up like .75 too) even though I've consistently been one of their most valued employees. Now, about a month ago I found out that the very newest employee makes the same that I do even though I have way more responsibility than him and he kinda sucks.

Now, my friend/coworker set me up with a job. He told me what I'd be making and last night I did the math and they're paying me like 1.50 less than he said he got paid. Plus he would sit on ass most of his shift and they adored him but when I'm there they're always on my nuts even though I do 50x more work than everybody else (I know that because every week all the prep work I did last week is still there and everything else is empty)

tl;dr why do employers shit on me so hard? I work hard as fuck and I get paid less, and have to pick up everybody else's slack.
