Will quitting 4chan improve my life? There's just so much negativity: sexism, racism, heightism

It's making me jaded

/fit/ has actually improved my life. So no. Keep coming back here.

Whatever. Where else are you gonna go? Misc? Facebook? Ha

Thinking the same thing, makes me think all black beople hate white people and all women and crazy third wave feminists. But then I go out Into the world and descover that isn't the case

I spend 10 hours of my day here. It's sad but I just can't stop. Fills the void.

>>39317120
You're the problem, not 4chan. You are very obviously not one of us. You belong on tumblr or facebook.

I suggest you return there.

I don't know what fantasy world you think you live in but all of that is true irl. Try reading the news sometime.

I meant quit the internet. Because all I do all day is go on 4chan and youtube.

>>39317120
I consider it sometimes but the book and film reccomendations have made all the fucked up shit worth it.

Frankly if 4chan ever dies I'll probably just stop using the internet at all.

4chan is so hard to quit because it is genuinely rewarding. An anon recently said it was Pornography for conversation and I think that's spot on.

>If you dont have real life friends well then you have your problem

I want to leave the place I've been stuck in all my life.Can't leave until a year, I have no friends. This place makes me think all girls are sluts and ffs I can't think like that anymore. I try hard not to make sex my ultimate goal but for fuck sake this place puts emphasis on the shit. I just want to fucking believe in true love and get fucking married. Screw the naysayers I ain't not doing something just because some neckbeard told me not to. Because I've been living mylife on 4chan and it's fucking depressing. I'm literally using movies to escape from my shit life. I'm not poor (relative to the rest of the world), but god fucking damn is my life on hold. I can save one hundred a month to buy a ticket out of here, but I know I'll become fucking homeless.

>porn for conversation
Damn, this is the most accurate description of 4chan.
>>
>>39317622
WHAT DOES IT MEAN
>>
>>39317252

not that anon, but here's a post i saved in a word document about that topic because i'm a loser like that:

>I've been thinking about this too. The best description of this place I've read was "4chan is like porn for conversations" and it's completely accurate. It does nothing to assuage or satisfy my real needs, but the shallow and brief social interaction I engage in here is just enough to stave off a realization of my loneliness and lets me avoid the work of really interacting with and reaching out to other humans.
>Interactions being short and shallow skews them over time towards being hyper-aggressive or hyper-sexual, because that entertains people the fastest and lets them leave and move on quickly, or just drop the conversation entirely because there's no reason not to if you're not being entertained by the other person. Most conversations here aren't even geared towards connecting with others anymore, they're for short bursts of aggressively focused humor and arguments at the expense of others.

I'm just gonna say that maybe 10%-15% of the shit you read on 4chan will help you in life. The other shit will just turn you into a monster.
>>
>>39317231
the cool part is when you go to a general thread, where you hvae the same posters day in and day out.

It starts to give you a sense of familiarity and you can actually make friends
>>
>>39317120
Probably not. I've been too busy with school to browse the past 4 months but I'm still just as shit as I was before

It's a part of you now, for better or worse. I like it though. I'm not a fucking dyel pleb at least

4chan actually prepares you for any potential abuse you might face in real life

t. black man
>>
>>39317120
Browse it, but take everything with a grain of salt.

The conversation is dominated by mostly angry unsuccessful young people. If you're reading a thread and it devolves into nonsense, as most do, just close it and do something else.

I'm fucking 34 and I still come here for a few laughs, a few pics of people in progress, and the ultra-rare piece of relevant workout info.

One of the biggest parts of being happy is feeling like you belong. Often this means reconnecting with your family. Go by your parents' or sibling's house a couple times a month and help them with stuff/do something for them/spend time with them. If you have some friends spend time with them, invite them over for dinner, or something.

One thing that takes some people a long time to learn is that nobody owes them fucking anything, if you sit and wonder why you are bored all the time it's because you're a boring person who just shitposts and watches movies all the time, and nobody's gonna swoop in to save the day, if you let yourself you'll become a 40yo working a deadend job with dead parents and siblings he hasn't talked to in a decade and no friends, and is honest to god better off killing himself

So yeah, I'd say that wasting time on the internet is your main freetime activity, you should take a break from it for a while.

I'm just another post in what I'm sure will be many many posts to reply to OP, however:

Leaving 4chan will make your life better. I mean... come on guys, we know that. What do you get from 4chan? Validation? Do you feel like you don't fit in anywhere except on an image board wth total strangers?

Get off 4chan, force yourself to be a normie, it's not that hard.

Yeah you're not wrong, but desu 4chan is the only place I can really express myself. If I posted shit about how I find trans people weird on normiebook, everyone would give me shit. My info would be spread all over the web and my life would be fucked. On 4chan I can say the most fucked up things and no one would reallt give a shit.

Also this place is the only place where I can really open up. I know we all shit on each other and theres a lot of hate, but you guys are really my only friends I have left. Everyone I was friends with in high school and college have moved away and started their new life w/o me in the picture.
>>
>>39322542
It's depressing to me how easily relationships of all types are dissolved these days. Friends are considered too replaceable.
>>
>>39322565
Yeah I remember 4 year ago I was a senior in high school and my Econ teacher told the whole class that everyone in here will most likely not be friends with each other anymore.

We all laughed thinking he was just being a sad cunt.

Fucking hell he was right.

I wouldn't say that you should QUIT 4chan, as it is entertaining, but you have to recognize that it is a cesspool, and should ONLY be used for entertainment. Real life is nothing like 4 chan. Go outside, anon.

What does it MEAN though?

If you've learned all the fitness advice you need, and you feel like nothing can be gained from continuing to come here, you should leave. Cut the excess. I cut Imgur out of my life because while it was fun, it was just a distraction. Farewell and good luck, anon. Remember we're all gonna make it.

I tripfag on /nfl/ and am too lazy to turn it off now. I do wonder whether or not I'll ever truly leave 4chan, it is a bit like a part of me is here forever. This website certainly helped me to mature and has given me a few good pieces of advice. For example, helping me break my fedora atheism to the point where I respect people who have religion and wish I could believe in god too. Some of the best lines I've ever heard from here are

>Self Pity is narcissism disguised as depth
and
>Women love drama because playing life on easy mode gets boring

4chan isn't really such an awful place in the long short of it, just a big time waster in the end. So long as you aren't shitposting 10 hrs a day and pissing in 2 liter bottles, I think you'll be okay if you stay here.
>>
>>39332524
Only certain parts of real life. If you find close-knit groups of smart thoughtful people, things are better.

Is it just me or has /fit/ gotten way worse with woman bashing etc? I only recently came back here and there is way more woman hate threads.

I probably should stop coming here, it's really starting to warp my perception of women and making me feel miserable.
>>
>>39333343
I haven't even noticed any hate threads. Plenty of no gf threads though. Maybe a few more negative individuals when it comes to women, but that usually just comes with age and experience.
