So, how are you super-oldfags coping with loneliness? I mean people in their 30s-40s.
Cos I guess you can eke a shitty existence by yourself up until your late 20s through mind-numbing work, vidya and tv BUT after 28 years of it, I'm not sure how I could cope another 20 more.

How are you doing it?
>>
I'm not coping, I'm just waiting for death already.

How old are you?

>>18306027
Get gf and spawn few babies?

>>18306261
33. All my friends drifted away while I was depressed. Which I still am.

28 year old. If you're feeling lonely just get a dog. Play an online video game, do some volunteer work or watch anime. There's a whole world of opportunities at your grasp.

Lies.

I can't tell if the nights are worse than the days.

>if you're lonely distract yourself with stupid bullshit till you die

Why not become a drug dealer? Stab someone? Fuck a prostitute or 6? Guaranteed this activities will be more fun and fulfilling than being another Joe Schmoe posting selfies with his diseased dog before he fucks it while crying about his sad lonely life

You don't have to do that either. You can learn Japanese, learn biking, learn how to go fishin or boating, learn how to make music on the piano. There's a whole world of opportunities. It's up to you to use your imagination and find something to do.

Sounds like something you read off a self-help book.

With mind numbing work, vidya and netflix

28yo here. Besides my gf, I don't have any reliable friends for hangint out or telling intimate stuff. It's like people just stuck their heads in their asses. We're doing what we can to meet new people, but without any activity forcing socialization such as school or work (we're self employed), it's tough as nails...

I tried walking, and what usually happens is I walk for hours since I don't have a destination and come back with sore feet and even more depressed than before.

I remember once while walking seeing an old man in his 40-50s in shabby clothes carrying a plastic blue bag with drinks slowly walking along the edge of the kerb, and at every sign pole and lamppost, he'd do a circle around it and then shamble along to the other side and circle around the opposite one. I thought to myself, I should kill myself way before that happens.

Lol this is how I often roll as well when I can't sleep. Just gotta keep doing what you can and let your own self be the most important thing.

>let your own self be the most important thing

That doesn't mean anything when it's just you.

>>18306027

>>

>>
>>18306858
Go stab a prostitute sounds like you play too many violent video games c:
>>
>>18308455
alright

i'll start with you

Actual guy in his 30s here. Don't listen to teenagers who think they know anything about adulthood.

My 30s have been better in pretty much every way than in my 20s. Being single in your 30s is great. The whole world is open to you, you have more potential gfs and sex partners than ever before, and you can do all the things you couldn't afford in your 20s. It's literally the best decade of your life. The best balance of still being young while not being restricted by lack of funds or experience.

>>18306027
i am suicidal. complete despair all the time. it's pathetic because i look young and am physically in better shape than most people who are 20. im not ugly, ive had ltr, lived with a woman but never gotten married. there's someone i love but we won't be together. so it has crippled me. i just want die.

I'm 33 now. When I was in high school, and college, having girls around was pretty easy. Even the military was fine. I ended up being sent to prison on a drug charge for a couple years. Nothing happened to me in there or anything, but it's been about 4 or 5 years since I've been with anyone. I'm rarely attracted to anybody anymore, and I was getting concerned, like maybe there's something fundamentally wrong with me. I ended up developing a crush on a girl I know though, and I felt better about it. Even got her phone number. I tried calling and texting yesterday, but she hasn't responded. So I'm feeling rejected now. It's ok though. I don't really have any business talking to someone like that anyway. I'm just going to go drink a bottle of vodka in the woods alone today. Work is going well at this point, but the fact I don't have a gf or wife at this point.. idk people look at me differently.

But you've had to have a somewhat decent social skills to build on.
>>
>>18306027
30 year old. Since 29 I've been actively going out and socializing with others. Haven't got a close friend yet, but that's because I'm picky as to who I would spend time with.

Don't feel ashamed for being on your own.
>>
>>18308597
I wish I could get drunk, unfortunately I'm on meds for epilepsy so alchohol mixes with my meds and I could get a seizure and die. So I've never been able to get drunk in my life.

>Don't feel ashamed for being on your own.

Who here is ashamed you egotistical fuckhead?
>>
>>18308723
If you haven't, then you build them. What prevents you from learning better social skills as an adult?
>>
That isn't what oldfag means you fuckin newfag
>>
>>18308855
Ah shut up.
>>
>>18308862
You have to go back
>>
>>18308830
People really don't want to wait for autists to catch up, especially if you're 20 years behind.
