Jesus Christ

Do you even know what the word "confess"in English?

>>18203821
I've actually grown tired of anime anon

>But this time it's different.
Bullshit

>I've now lost any hope of getting a girlfriend,
Bullshit

You're still a fucking teenager my dude, get your head right and work on yourself.

>>18203833
The fact that you admit that you've "watched" it means everything

It's cancer.
Watching anime is like eating poison

>>18203836
I'm trying to work on myself, it's just hard when everyone around you has gotten laid or is in a relationship.
>>18203838
Why such hostility towards anime?

>>18203875
Anime is like an alternative means of life
Where everyone acts like retards

As someone who belongs to the normal side of life, I hate retards
As everyone
It's normal for everyone to hate them
Even if they don't know why
I do
I hate them even more because

I'm in a somewhat similar situation to you anon, though I've never been that autistic to 'confess' my feelings to someone

'confessing' your feelings to someone never works and only happens in chinese cartoons or whatever work of fiction you've been watching/reading. Outright telling someone what you feel about them is pretty weird and awkward. Being straightforward about your feelings, especially towards women, just makes you less approachable. Do not think that maybe it'd work out with another person, because that will just actually lower your chances with them.

getting a gf for the sole purpose of having one is a pretty shallow reason imo, you don't just 'get' a gf just because you're the only guy in your group of friends whose never had one. To me, it's more of a good friend becoming a partner for life, who won't just serve as an emotional cushion at the end of the day. There has to be something more to to that.

Fair enough I guess

I get your point, I would agree that it's shallow to want a girlfriend just to have one. I know it's wrong to seek validation in that way but it's still a strong desire that's hard to stop.

I do doubt that once you're good friends with a girl it will develop into anything more, and no I'm not saying it isn't worthwhile to have good female friends

>>18203905
Wait what
But people told me to ask the girl out and tell her that I like her (or it ends in the friend zone)

This anon is dropping wisdom. Nail this advice to your conscious.

Just think about how much more respect you would have for someone who would have a long-term and faithful girly rather than the many (headaches) your friends will go through.

Don't give up. Don't give in. Just talk to/hang out girls without the intention of going out with her. When you fall in love with the personality then you have every right to ask her out.
