the entire board is a bunch of roleplaying faggots and closet gays

>>41888296
Leave 4chan. Leave the internet. Honestly dude it's better for you overall. I'm trying to, but failing (haha) since I ended up here.

One thing I will say about /fit/: Most other boards of this size don't have such a positive attitude nor encourage you to improve. I haven't been here for about a year so maybe things have changed for the worse since the election but the /fit/ I remember was pretty cool.

>>41888334

The encouragement to improve on /fit/ is taken too far. People nitpick on the slightest imperfections day after day til the point where you feel like an ugly motherfucker even though you look fine

>>41888296
I got a gf coming to /fit/, so maybe you should stop blaming others for your short-comings

If your mental health is deteriorating or all kinds of fucked up then you should take a break from the internet, get some help and try to accept yourself for who you are. Been 5'10" since junior high school, Skelly until 18, and am only getting close to 1/2/3/4 now at 24.

Seriously dude, take a break, once I'm no longer DYEL I'm probably never coming back lol

Where you actually successful with girls before coming here? or are you just a faggot that found an excuse for being a perma-virgin?

>>41888412

Even if someone is delusional about their appearance, whats the point in being redpilled about your looks? What good comes out of knowing that your ugly? Especially when it comes to face and height, 2 things u cannot change without expensive painful plastic surgery.

Knowing will only make you depressed and even less attractive because you will lose confidence.

>>41888296
OMG YOU ACTUALLY FELL FOR THE MEMES WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU

No-one gives a fuck about your height,jaw,neck and your fucking insertions you dumb cuck.
That shit about height and stuff is banter between fit bois,since we can't insult your muscles and shit,since most people are fit here.

>>41888461

I was, I was the first of my friends in highschool to lose virginity, had 3 long-term relationships, had a few fwb over the years. But now, have had 1 kiss in 2 years. I dont even feel confident to even talk to a girl anymore. I feel like I turned into the people you see in >tfw no gf threads

It's more that modern communication technology reduces people. It's not just /fit/.

>>41888520
Yeah same.

Have you tried not being a little bitch, OP?

Most people who are like OP are borderline autists that can't separate meme from reality.

Its fine on /pol/ where they're all autistic manchild shutins who can't affect anything, but on /fit/ they might go and actually act on what they misunderstand.

m8 its just banter

>>41888598
I don't think its autism. Its pretty hard to separate things when you can find evidence and make arguments for both sides.
Even in medicine (so a heavily regulated scientific field) there are drugs where you can find a tons of studies that prove how harmful can they be with permanent side effects and studies that find no connection between the drug and the listed issues. And that's science for you bitch

In today's postmodern culture its hard to find the answer. You can find hundreds of these '6'0+' tinder sloots but then go out and find guys under 6 with girlfriends and generally couples with equal height. Studies often show different than the anecdotal evidence of the average person. You can make an argument for both sides easily. It's about what you want to believe

>>41888377

Honestly, you gotta realize who's posting.

Most people that are posting really negative comments are complete fucking losers. There was that one pic where gingermod called out some guy who posted negative shit about someone in one thread, and a picture of his ugly ass body in another. It really put this board into perspective for me.

I agree, man. Before I started coming here I thought I had a decent face and looked pretty good, despite being a khv. Since then I've become increasingly obsessed with my appearance to the point where I now often take pictures of my face and compare them to pictures of David Gandy. Now I can't stop thinking about how my brow ridge isn't low enough, my cheekbones aren't high enough, my jawline isn't strong enough, my fucking forehead isn't slanted enough, my nose is too slanted, my eyes are asymmetrical, my mouth is crooked, etc. It's become an unhealthy obsession that's consumed my confidence. Thank god I'm not a manlet, I can't even imagine how much all the shitposting about that would have gotten to me by now if I was. I think it's about time I leave this board for good, I've learned all I need to about lifting already, it's just shitposting at this point.

>>41888296
This post is just what I needed to see. Time to leave this shithole and finally make it.

You're right OP, being attractive is completely down to your attitude! Definitely not FACE, FRAME, and HEIGHT!

Women fall for domestic abusers but they can sense the electromagnetic waves indicating your metal states!

you have to understand that a lot of replies posted by people here are just people taking a piss at one another

4chan is what you make it. People say it is terrible for self esteem or whatever, but I've gotten huge benefits from 4chan, from getting thin to learning Spanish. Just don't take the negative stuff to heart. We gravitate to the comments we want to believe are true, so force yourself to ignore the negative ones and believe in the positive ones.

I've been coming here for 2 years (3 years lifting) and honestly just came for the Mirrin' generals which were pretty lit back in their hay-days

But the last thing you should do (especially cuck-ass OP whose GF probably recently just black'd his faggot ass) is come back and blame the board when it should be you sticking your fuck, sack-of-shit neck out like every other grinder out trying to improve themselves little by little


In short, your a fucking faggot and i hope every female in your family gets genetically fucked re-written by niggers

yeah my self confidence was a lot higher when i stopped browsing this board for a while

but some of the memes and shitposts are funny so i keep browsing

On the other hand I see the CBT threads and people's numbers to realize that majority of people here are newbies that just started to lift and are using this board to cultivate a new hobby. Which is fine but it means this board's full of DYELs.

If the board is really doing that to you, you have the ability to leave at anytime. I don't know why strangers on the internet are influencing you this much, but if it's that bad, you can leave this site and find a better use of your time. I personally just come here occasionally for advice and a laugh or two, and avoid any threads I think I won't enjoy.

It was always shit, you just deluded yourself into thinking you had self worth to protect your fragile ego. Ask yourself, what are you doing to make yourself better? What are you doing to deserve the peace of mind you pretended to have?

There are people who take personal inventory of themselves, find that they lack something, and are motivated to get it. Then there are people like you who think they should be rewarded before they put in work. Your need a positive male presence in your life

You are completely right. I walk around believing that everyone is noticing every little imperfection that I have. Well, they don't actually notice shit, even after 5 years. If I point it out for the fuck of it, they say ''never noticed that before''.....

It's really toxic to live like this. Haven't gotten any better either, despite being aware that no one notice my small scars, chest gap, slightly crooked nose, etc.

Don't be such a fucking pseud. Browsing /fit/ is the same as reading a book. It gave me the information that I needed to improve my life through hard work at the gym. It doesn't matter where the motivation comes from, what matters is the result.

Don't blame me for you being a virgin you fucking lame cunt.

Exactly my point. People like to go on and on about everything that influences them as away to avoid taking responsibility in case they fail. It's sad how they refuse to acknowledge the role their own actions took in their success. It seem more important that they feel better instead of actually being better.

>>41894436
Influences shape a person, but they don't dictate their actions. You're clearly a kid with very little life knowledge but a very big mouth. Give up, it's embarrassing.

So this is a 7-8 according to reddit.

What's your excuse?

>>41894480
not being on reddit

>>41894372


What is your definition of a "tool" in this context? Generally speaking, a tool is something that facilitates that act of implementation. You would think that a person with such a strong belief in something would consider their words very carefully instead of being so generic. It makes me think that /fit/ had very little to do with you actually turning your life around.

>>41894491
Are you implying that having correct knowledge of a subject would not aid you're ability in practicing that subject? Perhaps you're right, and I am a fitness auteur that can increase my muscle mass by tens of kilograms purely through luck. I don't know about that though, and I don't know exactly what your point is. If you hate /fit/ so much, why are you here?

Haven't really felt the way you feel, OP. Guess it's a matter of how seriously a person takes the internet

You should think through about the flaws you have and fix what you can and embrace what you can't change. The key is to not fear looking like a fool, and approach things with honesty. That way you become more comfortable with yourself while also learning more about who you truly are

>>41894479

>Influences shape a person

No, influences only shape those who are mentally weak. Experience is what shapes a person who has the confidence to take risks. It's telling that you would claim I have very little "life knowledge". You are simply deflecting from the fact that you have no experience to back up your position. You have an opportunity to support your position intelligently, but you instead choose to resort to conjecture and insults. Experience is the key to actual knowledge. You can read about proper lifting form on /fit/ and in books all you want, but it doesn't effect your workout until you actually perform the lift and adjust until you get it right.

>>41894392
s-sauce p-please?

>>41894569
What the fuck are you talking about you pseudointellectual virgin. Experience influences. I experience life, I experience art, I experience knowledge. /fit/ is one of those experiences, and is therefore an influence. Are you going to suggest that when Shakespeare wrote Hamlet, he had personally experienced the life of a Danish prince? He was influenced by what he had read, consumed and absorbed during his life. Whilst on a smaller scale, people similarly will be influenced not only by direct experience, but also through what they consume.

You honestly sound like you're parroting some inane 'le redpill' nonsense. I'm experienced in the lifts I perform, but it was /fit/ which gave me the initial grounding and knowledge I needed to first perform those lifts. Do you not understand that?

>>41894540


What I'm doing is telling you that These "tools" you speak of had nothing to do with your successes. I'm telling you that the tools for your success came from yourself, not /fit/. Anyone with the ability to read can absorb the knowledge you did. The only thing different is that you took these ideas and turn that into action and that has nothing to do with /fit/. If you took a minute and did some critical thinking you would have seen that I'm not trying to insult you, I'm trying to give you more credit than gave yourself.

>>41894077
>redditors aren't drumpf voters

>>41894616
I misunderstood you anon, thank you. But I think that it was not only the knowledge /fit/ provided, but the community. The board provides a culture which, as a guy that grew up with little paternal influence, emulates a masculine role model. Whilst /fit/ is probably a terrible example of a role model, it gave me the drive I needed to get off my arse and start working. I wanted to be able to engage in the bants that people had on here, and whilst my own drive and motivation may have helped me in part, it was also /fit/ that gave me that motivation also. Whilst it is sad, I see a lot of you as friends and family - in a weird, disconnected way. I'd never mention /fit/ to anyone I know, but I will always know that I can come here and laugh about fitness and talk about recent events and other issues, and it is that in part which has made me stick to fitness more than anything. For me, and for a lot of people, fitness is a culture just as much as it is a requirement for health. /fit/ immersed me in that culture, and has contributed to the drive I needed to become who I am today.
