33yo oldfag here, extremely immature when it comes to feelings. I think I'll never sort my shit out when it comes to relationships.

Ill be joining you all in 15 days... im doing a masters in biology but i still feel like the 13 year old i once was

I always wanted to make a programmers guild on 4chan. Something where skilled programmers can get together and share skills. I planned on starting with a discord. I would prefer people who were older since I'm older myself. Anyone interested in such a thing who is already a worker in the technology sector? I know I could go to /g/ but meh, wanted to try my luck here since I'm looking for older people. I'm thinking to have algorithm tests that people have to pass to get in.

25 next week baby

I feel like the whole world is filled with retarded children.
Is this arrogance of mine a mental disease? I even broke up with my only gf because I felt she was dragging me down to her level of mediocrity. I have more or less stopped talking with my friends because they are all simple-minded, I easily reject other people.
I feel like I suffer from severe megalomania because I feel like I'm the best there is, smartest, most attractive.

When I compare my age / achievements at my age, my looks and everything else with other's I know that I'm fucking superior to them.

Worst is, I'm painfully aware of thus condition of mine.

I've been thinking of going at a psychologist because I'm obviously not right in the head.

>>17790989
You might want to check at /sci/ too. At least it seems like theres a good amount of CS people there who might be interested

>>17790960
You always will
That's the secret
Even 50 years olds feel like they're just pretending to be their dads.

What's your study bro?
I used to study bio once upon a time
I still have friends in the community

>>17791077
Go see a psych.

I'm 27.
I'm like you but I realize that I'm even dumber for realizing that they're dumb.

Anyways, talking to someone who is listening means a fuckton.

Just turned 27, had to move back home to finish degree. Should be done at the latest Fall next year but I think I can swing Summer. Ready to be on my own again. I have good hopes, it's a stem degree, I'm in a relevant internship, and the city I want to move to is hiring out the wazoo for degrees like mine.

Just gotta stay the course.

Working in a dead end job in an area full of city-type workers. Someone correct if I'm wrong but aside from the senior workers the VAST majority seem to be cool, hip, beautiful people who like to party.

What gives? Did all the ugly smart people die, did they get plastic surgery, I mean, what happened to the smart ugly kids who graduated 1st class with honours?

It feels like even if my grades were good I wouldn't be able to get in a city type career cos I'm an anti-social geek with no fashion sense.

>>17791425
They look more attractive because they're happier than you
They go to the gym and generally just feel better.

If you feel like you're in a dead-end job, you slump and don't find the motivation to work out

Good feeds good
Bad feeds bad

On both sides, it's only in your mind though

>>17791439
>They look more attractive because they're happier than you

Mmm, I don't know, my area is going through gentrification and all the hipster and yuppie fucks look like they came from boohoo and topman commercials. They're the same type of people (or the same people) that make up the city workers.

I don't remember many people looking anything other than sketchy or miserable in the 90s and early 00s before gentrifcation.

>>17791473
Well yeah, you're backing me up

Gentrification brings richer people in
Richer people are de facto more attractive

26. Wasted most of my life being depressed. Hate myself and I don't think there's anything left for me. Just waiting to expire.

>>17791495
Yep.
Been there
I decided to join the military
Worst case scenario, I die while everyone says how great I am
Best case, I have lots of money and I can spend it on things I like

25 and still living at home and working full time but it's a dead end job. On the plus side taking classes at CC so hopefully something comes of that. Working out helps a lot

Late 20s here. Can anyone else relate to these feels?

>feel pulled in two opposing directions
>one way is rooted in past, with old school friends, old hobbies, old interests, old part of myself
>other way is more of a recent post-highschool self-development, with different interests, more isolated, solitary, less socially connected, feels like a "higher" way suitable for maturer future, yet alienates people from the past, or those stuck in that past who don't "get" my recent "higher" phase of life
>due to connection to other people, first way has more emotional pull due to not wanting to let people down
>yet because the new other way is more individualistic, get a strong urge to [[[disregard opinions of others]]] and do my own thing, against the grain, compelled by my own interests, enlightened by my own intelligence
>feel like if i go with the first way it won't truly challenge me, is like a stuck level
>comparable to mountain climbing; my higher interests = striving to reach the peak, but old friends = settled on lower level, neither strive to reach peak nor think i should

I stopped wanting to be used by guys.

Thank god.

just change and help yourself grow, the body needs silense.

>>17791570
: )

>>17791562
Your categorization is an illusion
There is no two ways
There is only your life

For yourself always try to improve yourself, but don't ignore your past

Take both without choosing

I spent my late teens and early twenties partying, drinking, getting high and womanising. It was fun but I've definitely screwed myself out of a decent career or qualifications. Thankfully I have enough of a private income to live on comfortably enough. All my eggs are in one basket, if I can't make money doing the one thing I always thought I wanted to do once I'd settled down a bit then I'm stuck here.
Luckily it turns out I'm as good if not better at it than I always assumed. I'm going to have a lonely time of it until that bears and fruit however.

32 male and a bit confused about actually considering fucking a 22yo busty, fat (in my opinion) girl with Daddy's little girl kinks, that I matched with on tinder, who recently became single and is looking for FWB. I make exceptions when it comes to no body pictures when they're that young, but I usually got pretty high standards.

I swore never to fuck fat chicks, but now that I'm ten years older... Should I?

Anyone in here got experience with larger women and/or DD-lg fetish? I need encouragement. Could take it or leave it, but have been telling myself to try new things.

>>17791613
What's your basket then, eh?

>>17791616
Meet up for coffee nearby your place
You don't need to commit fucking her just because you talk

Also, when your'e old, all memories are golden
Get a little fat fuck under you, that's just another photo in the mental scrapbook, even if it's a mistake

>>17791628
:^)

38 here. Makes me chuckle when 20 somethings say they feel old. Get real.

I see a lot of wasted youth on this site. Men 18-30 sitting around depressed playing vidya and watching fucking cartoons. They are in peak physical condition, and they won't even go outside. They complain about women, hate them even, but make no effort to meet and truly understand how women see the world. Lemme tell you something, women stick to men their own age, so once you are out of your 20s, it becomes exceedingly difficult to meet those horny, sexy college girls. Don't waste your life with vidya. Theres plenty of time for that later.

I got bad news for you tho. After college, after 30, making friends becomes incredibly hard, even if you are a friendly, outgoing person. Everyone has settled into family life and trying to schedule a simple dinner or event requires a mammoth amount of secretarial work. Gone are the effortless days where you text a friend "come over?" And they say "sure". Stay in touch with good friends. And fucking drop those that suck the life out of you.

I blew the last 20 years on drugs and booze. I can't really try to convince someone not to do them, enjoy yourself. But I wish I had dried out long enough to get /fit/ earlier. You owe it to yourself to see what your body is capable of. Dont be a skinnyfat dyel your whole life. Youd be amazed at how fast your anxiety and depression go away after you into a nice cardio and lifting routine.

I've been through all the existential dread and suicidal depression you guys are talking about. Teens and twenties are a rough ride emotionally. It does even out eventually. I've actually grown to love my thirties most of all. I'm not so fucking emo and edgy. And no acne! Never believe that how you feel now will never change.

Don't get married. be alpha about it. Be with someone as long as you love each other and no longer.

>>17791636
I'm 27 and I feel you

I'm hoping to have a real career in my 30s.
Like I never fucked up my 20s.
That's my hope

I'm still a little boozy but I can kick it.
I can kick it anytime I want
I just don't want to yet

Anyways, my dad is in his 50s and he has a girlfriend in her 30s.

Men, thankfully, become more attractive as they age.
You aren't the end of the game
You're just the peak

Be like my dad. Get a 20 something GF who likes some grey hairs and eye wrinkles .

>>17791636
Contd. Oops I lost myself in that rant and forgot what I really wanted to say.. Which is "why am I here"?

> tfw no im friends.
> tfw no friends for snap and think its a fucking stupid app
> instagram is the worst pile of normie shitmemes ever that make me want to cringe till my eyes tear
> faceberg is just family and grown up friends posting pics of their kids
> I cant spend more than 5 minutes on reddit. The circlejerks, the normieness of it, the terrible christmas tree replies of fucking shit jokes. The neckbeard know it alls, the word "upvote". Even the mascot pisses me off.

Literally no place else to go for an old weirdo who spent the last 20 years online except this site full of shitposting teenagers.

>>17791645
Good words. You are right. Never feel like you've peaked in life and there is no way to do better. I used to feel that way when I cracked 30 and lamented wasting my 20s but now I'm getting richer, more attractive, wiser, and just better overall even at my age.

I date girls in their 20s. I was just saying the pool of 20 year olds who will date outside their age group isnt large and you have to do a lot more work to find them. But it's possible. Especially if you look young, act young, are active, not married, rich, etc.

>>17791616
What do you have to lose? You might like it. I used to be disgusted by fat girls when I was younger and worried about my friends making fun of me. Fat girls are way more slutty. Like 3 blowjobs in one night slutty. You can do a lot more stuff with them for some reason, and if you are truly attracted to femininity, you'd be surprised at the boner you get touching all that soft skin.

>>17791681
It's not even about looking young

That's the fundamental difference between men and women
Men want young partners. Smooth skin and plump breasts

But women want strength and experience
That doesn't really have an expiry date

>>17791394
Doing ecology. What were you studying?

>>17791996
I finished studying 3 years ago
Nothing special
Nothing but shit
I joined the military
They suck the dick of anyone who is marginally educated

Ecology? I knew someone who did that
Lake studies was his shit
I forget the Greek word for it
Limnology or some shit

Anyways, I envy you and pity you
You push the knowledge of humanity to the edge, but humanity doesn't give a shit

What's your speciality?
I hope it's boreal forest, otherwise it's gonna die in the next 20 years

>>17791077
It's very easy to fix. You need to humbled, but you avoid challenging situations so you always think you're superior.

>>17791477
I get that, but what I was getting at was that most city workers seem to be hip attractive people, which seems odd to me cos I thought most city workers would have 1st class degrees and such. I'd thought that city careers would be more mixed in the types of people that were hired based on academic achievements. But somehow pwc, kpmg, etc were able to hire only the attractive high achievers.

Maybe I'm being just jealous but it's like the all the ugly high achievers amounted to nothing after school and uni.

>>17791636
>Don't get married. be alpha about i
Lol no. Being married means sex twice a day and ass to cuddle with at night. Stfu.

>>17791394
Is this true?
21 yo here

>>17792363
Yes.

yeah except that's not true

>>17792390
Kind of is...

>>17792312
You don't have to be married to get that.

Also theirs no guarentee your marriage will be full of sex, I'm sure theres plenty of anons who would tell you otherwise. That and if your woman gets fat and won't change then you are screwed.

34 here

Still grinding away. Just bought a shitty car, my first ever. Currently applying for dead end Admin work. Online dating and the prospect of trying to meet a woman is bringing out my neuroticism. I take each day as it comes and weather the constant emotional storms. I will not let fear beat me.

Meanwhile, all my friends are married, own big houses and drive nice cars. Neurosis has ruined my life.

I was a college dropout NEET in my parents basement until 23, when I decided to stop giving a shit and try to have a life, just to see what happens. Because I had no investment in the world at that point it didn't matter anyway. Now at 26 I'm getting paid well to earn a PhD at a top tier school, I somehow have a lot of friends, travel often, and have a pretty interesting full adult life. I've overcome most of my old boundaries. I started actually actively dating for the first time with pretty good success, lost my old-ass virginity, and in general found that just showing up and Doing Stuff seems to make life work. Not everything has to be perfect, people aren't scary, and starting anything is the hardest part of doing anything. Stop worrying and just Do The Thing. If you fuck up, who cares? Just keep trying, all the time, motherfucker. It doesn't matter if you fail, so don't worry, but you can do a lot if you try. This attitude and a little good luck drastically improved my life.

>>17792842

Superb post, nailed it.

I'm older than you but just starting to figure this out too. The fear of failure/rejection/fucking up is always way worse than actually just fucking DOING it.

>>17791425
>hipsters and yuppies

You know, I thought the Tottenham riots would deter the fuckers from living here.

Man, what happened to the working class socialists? None of these liberal hipster fucks are real socialists, it's just a fucking fad to them.

Well, this is less depressing than the previous threads.

>>17791665

I feel you bro. Same age, same shit.

>TFW giving less of a shit every day. Youth really is wasted on the young.

34

I'm still here, that means something. 20s are a drunken blur now. An acne ridden, socially anxious mess who lived for the weekend. First gf aged 27 but least it happened, least I finally experienced it. Didn't last and never got over it but there you go.

Been on 4chan over a decade now. How the fuck I ever ended up here in the first place is beyond me. I have no interest in Japan, Anime, Video Games or any of the other endless aspie shit that draws people here. It became a place to simply vent and wallow in self-pity. I'm past all that now but when I think of the time I wasted on /r9k/....fuck, man.

But life goes on. You have to pick up the pieces and keep moving forward. I've learnt more about myself in the last 4 years since I turned 30 than my whole life previously. I'm still emotionally unstable and immature, simple life stuff stresses the fuck out of me. But onward I go. I will not be that guy in his 40s still living with his mother, a pathetic manchild with no soul left inside him. To hell with marriage and kids, it really is overrated and should be the reserve of stable, well rounded folk only. Damaged people like me should be thankful we are still here at all.

I watched the news today and it always puts things in perspective. At least I'm not in a North Korean labour camp. At least I don't live in Aleppo. At least I'm not a 4 year old child with terminal cancer. We're all spoilt bastards and products of the society and age we live in. We will always have a chance at redemption, we will always have hope, if nothing else.

Teens and 20s are shit unless you are a "normie". But it gets better. You just have to keep on keeping on no matter what. We're all fucked at the end of the day.

I still do think and place all my bets that my life will get easier once I move out, which I will in January if all goes well.
I have a good job, a good income, good future prospects and I'm generally a chill guy. I can get dates but living with parents is a HUGE downside at this age, and being single is basically my only issue right now.

25 next week
