30+ and Fuck Being Alive

>>35623651
So go join a monastery.
I'm not joking, if the material life wasn't meant for you, you should seek greater things.

>28 and all your friends are getting married
>show up single to weddings
>random old bag asks "how come you don't have a girlfriend"

>>35623675
Besides all the chanting and crap. I basically live a monks existence anyways.
I dont do drugs
I dont drink alcohol
I dont fuck sluts
I dont own fancy shit
I dont eat our ever
I dont wear nice clothes
I cant afford anything.

>>35623723
Story of my life.
Man I hate being single at weddings, parties, family gatherings, the grocery story, my bed

>maybe I can meet a girl at the wedding , like that movie wedding crashers
>No single women attend.........
Every single time

Welp, only a few more hours till bed and then the exact same day can start tomorrow.

Like I said, i don't do drugs or drink. I still didn't know it was Saturday today.
Life and days have no meaning.
It's simply existence and survival till death.

Be glad you're not me, but you probably will end up exactly the same.

Sorry for the black pill. Boomers ruined the world. Theres nothing for us.

>>35623726
Maybe yoy sshould get into fucking sluts, purchasing nice clothes, and enjoy eating out.

How come you cant afford anyhting? Parents kick you out or charge you rent?

>>35623857
Mid 30s
I haven't lived at home since I was 18
I haven't spoken to my parents in over 2 years, not like they would help in any way.
NEET - No $$$
No slut wants a poor guy.

Jeezus fuck life is going to be hard for some of you...........

why are you living your life by a movie script? these benchmarks seem arbitrary

>>35623675
>So go join a monastery.
Sounds great, find me one that takes a mid-thirties guy with no money, no education, nothing. Come on, this isn't a fantasy movie.

>>35623723
I'm 27 right now and I don't have any friends. No prospective girlfriends... Nothing. All the people I went to high school with are all married and have kids. I'm planning on killing myself in 3 years anyway.

>>35624155
Im 30 and still live at home dude. Were you kicked out or something.

Unless your parents are totally heartless shitbags (Yes, I understand there are a lot of those) they won't kick you out unless they know you can live a half decent life.. It was probably your choice man to move out man. If you arent paying rent, you'd have enough money to spend on some half decent whores, booze, and video games.

>>35623651
I'm sorry that you're in this situation OP.

If I'm not settled down with a cute girl by the time I'm 30 I'm killing myself.

>Every year the chances of getting a cute gf and becoming happy reduce
>Every year the pain of being alone increases
I feel that by 30 the pain of existing is a greater negative than the ever decreasing chance of gaining happiness

Also by 30 I feel as if my total suffering is greater than the upset felt by my parents knowing their only son has killed himself. If my suffering is greater than theirs, I'm allowed to die.

>>35624277

then why are you living your life by fantasy movie standards? theres people who have all of the things you want and are still fucking miserable. you'll never be happy with that unless you learn to be content with what you have first

>>35624371
>theres people who have all of the things you want and are still fucking miserable. you'll never be happy with that
Unlike those morons, yeah, I would be perfectly happy with that.

I don't have anything, so stop selling this bullshit philosophy to me. If I had basic sustenance and enough money to finance some small art projects, I'd be perfectly content.

>>35624371
"nice advice," he says sarcastically with a contemptuous scowl upon his face.

>>35623651
>I hope to die around 80.
Why would you want to live that long if you're miserable?

>>35623651
When did it start turning out this way OP?


For me it all went downhill around 2007-8.

That was the time that I dropped out of college, found out about 4chan, started playing modern video games, stopped keeping in touch with my friends from that time, and now a decade has passed in the blink of an eye.

>>35624363
>If I'm not settled down with a cute girl by the time I'm 30 I'm killing myself.
How old are you now?

well heres a very important question

how much did you even try to get those things? if you didnt, you cant expect those to just come for free, dumbass

>>35624447
Currently 22
30 has been my deadline for the past 5-6 years. There's been times where I've almost jumped, but I've kind of made a promise to myself to both wait until 30, and end it at 30.

>>35624431
I'm shaking my dude.
2007-08 is the same for me. I spent a lot of time pondering this.
Facebook started
3rd wave feminism started in colleges.
It all went to shit with Facebook. All of it.Society as a whole.
Im not kidding or being over dramatic.
Too many people our age say shit like that.

>>35624429
Well I tried a few times, but kept waking up, so I just kinda resigned to the fact I can't go out that way......

>>35624519
Facebook really is the worst.

Previous to that, I didn't know or care what people from my old high school or grade school were up to. Then I saw that they were graduating university, and they were moving into their first houses, and they were having kids, etc.

The fact that I was still dicking around as a collegel dropout with just a part time job was bad, and seeing everyone else with their perfect lives just made it worse for me so I just thought "that'll never be me" and boy oh boy what a self-fulfilling prophecy that turned out to be.


I ended up deleting facebook around 2012 or 2011. I wish I had done it years before that.
Also, to be perfectly objective and as far as my own life goes - 4chan is what ruined my life for the most part.

I spent, and still spend, most of my days there as a way to distract my mind from thinking too much about the fact that I'm wasting my days on 4chan. it's a vicious cycle.

21 year old faggeto here. Lots of robots here chastise others for even an inkling of success and claim to have it worse and that anyone who has it better doesn't belong here. I'd assume a lot of those people, however, are not even 25+ or 30+.

These and the 25+ threads are probably the pinnacle of despair here. You guys probably do have it worse than anyone here. Let's face it. Time is slipping away from everyone's fingers, but for you guys it's slipping away at a faster pace. Many opportunities were presented to you but you let them go because of fear or some other pathetic circumstance. From my experience this is how it goes, anyway. I got to admit, I sometimes go on these threads to feel better about myself. Not all the time because it pains me to see people who have good hearts to suffer like this.

What keeps you from committing suicide? I ask this question to myself everyday. Although I don't have even half as much of a shitty life as you guys, it's important to understand suffering is a personal experience. I haven't been happy in many years. The idea being happy ever again gets more fantastical each day. But I have never attempted suicide. I don't know whether it's because of hurting those who care about me or because I'm scared of death. Maybe it's because I feel like there's still some hope out there.

Maybe happiness IS just around the corner. Is this the reason why you haven't ended it?

>>35624637
>What keeps you from committing suicide?

You get used to it.
Stop thinking about friends or having a gf

>>35624637
Personally, I felt WAY way worse at 25 than I do now, even though my life was objectively better back than in almost everyday way.

21/22 was when i first had that "oh shit I'm an adult and nowhere near what I thought I would be", and at 25 I was shitting my pants because I was a quarter of a century old.

Now that I'm just passed 30. I just stopped caring. Not in that "boohoo I don't care NO I'M NOT MAD I DON'T CARE OKAY" but a genuine "oh whoops whatever lol".

My life isn't all bad, it's mediocre, but once I stopped comparing it to other people's lives and accepted my limitations I became much more happier. I also found my purpose in life, at least career-wise and have started working on that after being a NEET for 3 years now.

>>35624637
happyness can be daily you just need to find the things in your life that matter and surround yourself with people that you enjoy

like we are all gonna die anyway and waste most of our intellectually active life wagecucking few dollars to pay the bills so you might as well try to enjoy this shit
Wanna get girls? Do it
Wanna do shit with your life in general? Dont wait coz you might be dead tomorrow or a year from now

>>35624363
Ya at 25, I had a GF and all that.
Shit went south
>lol no worries, lots of fish in the sea
9 years later she was the last serious GF i've had...............

>>35624332
Ya, they're shit parents. Not beat me to a pulp shitty, but don't give a fuck if I'm poor shitty.

>>35624637
>What keeps you from committing suicide?
The 25+ that haven't killed themselves will all reply with reasons why they haven't.
The ones that have killed themselves aren't on this board to reply.

>>35624630
Alcohol helped ruin my life to the point of no recovery.
I haven't drank in years and life is what it is.....

>>35624637
I'm either dead or not allowed to go out that way.
Life is purgatory. Not a joke. I sit and rehash all those situations where I coulda/woulda/shoulda done this or that differently.
See above, i use to drink tons. Deep down it was to die.
I either did, and we are all ghosts in my mind or I can't go out like that.

>Mfw I see threads like this one.
People still can't get over the girl thing.
Believe me, your life won't become better if you get a GF. All that you will get sex and miserable moments, when your gf can't shut up. And don't forget, they'll be angry for no reason all the time.

>>35624925
Literal fucking purgatory. Every day is the same. Food has no taste.
I do nothing but think about all the mistakes I ever made.
Life has no meaning. Days have no meaning.
Isn't that what purgatory is???
Im dead aren't I?????

>>35624976
>your life won't become better if you get a GF
bullshit

Ever had your parents try to introduce you to someone unexpectedly?

The worst

>>35624976
Whatever kid.
One day you'll feel the pain of never having a kid of your own or some woman to make you feel like shit is okay when it's not.
I'll get over it too. Just like all the other disappointments in my life.

No. Even if I woke up tomorrow with 10 billion dollars.
Hookers are nasty.

Don't have a degree
Don't have money to get a degree
A degree isn't a week or month thing. It's years
It's not $20 for a degree.

Does logic and real life go out the window when giving advice on the internet?
Or you just made that up??

I've been poor my whole life. It will not change anytime soon.

>>35625148
I'm rich, powerful, incredibly handsome, intelligent, god's gift to women. You need to get over it

>>35625056
>Having a kid
I don't know. Every people is different, but I'm sure I don't want kids. Because I'm probably that dead inside. I just don't give a damn about things.

>>35625088
Trust me friend-o, I've been ready to die for a looong long time.
I envy the dead.

>>35625053
I can't even imagine.

I still live at home at my parents' shitty house where there's clutter everywhere and spit and worse all over the washrooms and they have gross habits but I'm not in any position to criticise them cause I'm their fuckup adult child still living at home.


Anyways for me what really boils my piss is when they say "why don't you have any friends over?"


Because I'm 31 years old and still live at home you senile retard. Even if I still had friends to this day I sure as shit wouldn't want to invite them to the embarrassing 1990s museum that I live so we can stand awkwardly in my bedroom while trying to not disturb my dad who work at home from the cluttered computer room that still has night star stickers up on the ceiling.

29

Never cared about kids

Haven't cared about roasties for a few years

Celexa has destroyed my sex drive and all but stopped erections, i fap once a week

Wagecucking is driving me to sudoku

Also recovering alky

>>35625184
>I've been ready to die for a looong long time
So have I

>I envy the dead
I envy the happy

>>35625176
Most days, i don't want to be a dad either. I really don't. Sometimes I don't have patience for my cat and he's pretty independent.
I know I don't have the patience for a kid.
But some days, like today, it just hits you.
I'll get over it.

>>35625072
sure thing brah lemme hop in my time machine to 10 years so that I have the time and money to just get a degree from the degree store and get a car and house and all that other normie shit

>>35625211
Yea, I wonder what happy feels like too.

>>35625171
And hanging out on r9k.

>>35624637
>, I sometimes go on these threads to feel better about myself.
Same, from 17
Then I was 18.
What, I'm 20, sat in this dark room again, just drinking a coke, that's alright, it's another year, I'll have this fixed by 25.
I'm 21, that was a quick year, this is a year a lot of people celebrate hard. I don't give a fuck though, that's not my kind of scene. I'll turn it around at 25, they say that's your prime.
Shit I'm 24, in this room again, I didn't even notice, or was it yesterday?

I'm 25. I don't remember what I did on my 22nd. What was it I did on my 18th again.. I'll have it together by 30, surely. Five whole years can't pass without anything.. again.. right.

People below age 20, you must save yourselves. Take it from me, I was you, not even that long ago, I still am you, in fact, but I'm 5 years older.
Literally do anything or time will take his keep from you.

>>35625205
Work, don't work, it's all the same.

I miss work, then find a job and hate life even more than being a poor NEET and I'll quit.

Being alive is just shit boring depression

>>35625148
LOL literally everyone starts off poor you fag.

You have to work hard.

Get a fucking apprenticeship somewhere to work and work your way up.

Take a trade like building or plumbing, make money and if you want a degree, save up for the costs of getting it.

There are ways you can get degrees without going to uni, don't they do at-home degrees like Open University?

Fuck you are a loser because you don't push yourself. Sad that you weren't born rich? Tough shit.

>>35625347
LOOOOOOOOL
I heard that speech so often it's lost all meaning.
Again, you're talking like all that you mention is easy, quick and will be finished by the weekend and Monday I'll have a 6 figure job.

You're like 16. What cares what you say LOL

>>35623837
why don't you drink at least?
Boomers have ruined the world and then have the audacity to shit all over the younger generations about their "laziness" and being "entitled". Wherever you go it's boomers acting entitled and kicking up a stink in public. I hate them so much REEEEEEEEEEEe

OP here
I also have a huge degree of cognitive dissonance.
Despite my life, I feel sorry for people.
I'm the guy with nothing but I'll feel sorry for someone else, who has more than me. In every way.
Like my life,apartment,everything is shit, and I'll feel sorry for the single mom with 3 kids in the ghetto.
She gets more welfare than me, she has 3 kids who love her at all times, she can get a new man easy, and I feel sorry for her.
Ya okay buddy...................

>>35625397
>Again, you're talking like all that you mention is easy, quick and will be finished by the weekend and Monday I'll have a 6 figure job.

No, I was saying the opposite.

It takes hard work and time, but it's a scale.

Depends on starting salary, but you'd be making a professional wage to afford you a house and car after about 3-5 years, and before that you'd be making an ok living to have a good life. Degree would take about 2-3 years. So that's 5-8 years depending on degree and job, which is literally no big time at all. You'll probably be sat where you are now in 5-8 years making the same complaints.

Get off your butt and work.

>>35625464
It makes me too sick but doesn't kill me.
It's really terrible relationship. I'd rather not suffer through the physical pain i endure from it.

Oh man I figured maybe she was trying to set you up with some cat-hoard adult daughter of one of her friend, but trying to set you up with a play-date with another adult man is probably even more embarrassing.

>>35625485
You're one of those drunks who does nothing but orders people around while your life is total shit.
I know your type.
Take your own advice. You're telling yourself, not me.

>>35625485
How do you imagine someone will just get a job at that age?

>>35625564
He's a drunk. Or something of the sort. Disability collector maybe.
They love telling people who to live their lives cause it makes them feel better about their own.

Most people suffer from sever cognitive dissonance when life is really shit.

he probably lives in squalor with a 500lbs mom who hasnt washed in ages.

>>35625564
>what are mature students
They do just as well as anyone else

>>35625537
I took the advice years ago from someone else, it worked out well. 10 years ago I was looking at a life of neet poverty, I changed it.

>>35625607
>10 years ago I was looking at a life of neet poverty, I changed it.
So you're 45? And you managed to get a job from scratch at 40?

>>35625607
You're the drunk guy who goes on /pol and tells people to become an oil rig worker.

Go to /pol

Not being a drunk, I remember you. Do you have a script actually?
Just what in the hell??

>>35625631
He's a drunk ex-oil field worker who gets hammered on week-ends and tries to "help" people by giving them bad advice.
Or he's paid by some union to promote the trades.
Word for word he's type the exact same shit in /pol threads.

>>35624976
>All that you will get sex and miserable moments
And a lot of the time you won't even get sex.

>>35625631
You could get a job from scratch at 40. Seriously, just look up mature students, it's fucking common.

So many people go through years of being waitresses or cleaners etc, then realise they can get a professional career if they want one. You just have to realise it's possible and happens all the time.

>>35625516
Tell me about it.
>I think you would make really great friends

Yes, because two internet addicted men who spend all days indoors would have such an amazing time in the real world.

>>35625777
Maybe back in 1970 grandpa

Go away you drunk idiot

I'm 28 and been a NEET for three years. I'm in a dump but honestly, it couldn't have turned out any other way taking my mental issues into consideration. I'm getting back on track but it's still a wasted life, considering my friends are starting families.

We just got dealt a really shitty hand, probably a combination of bad genes and subpar upbringing in most cases.

This one kid from our neighborhood that I was briefly sort of friends with for like a couple of years when we were like 8 years old (I just wanted to play with his SNES) moved back in with his parents after his job in some other part of the country didn't work out.

He recognized my mom who was out shovelling snow in our driveway and they started hugging and talking like they were the ones who were childhood friends.

She told me that she was about to invite him into the house to say hi to me but wasn't sure if I was awake yet (I was creeping from my bedroom window) and that I should go walk down the road and say hi to him and be friends again.


I'd rather drink bleach.

>>35623651
There is your problem.
You're entitled.

You don't have an entitlement to those things. Sucks to hear and all but people seem to think it's a normal thing that's suppose to happen. It's not normal. You make it happen or it doesn't happen.

>>35626003
Sorry to jump in on your convo, but I feel ya, when I see people for 5-10-15 whatever years ago, the last thing I want to do is talk to them
>Hi anon, how's it going?
>Really?? You want to know? I'm mid30s, no gf, no house, no kids, no job, no prospects for anything except shit jobs that make me hate life even more and I have zero plans for the future because nothing ever works out for me.

I'd rather walk the other way or just say "fine" and quickly leave.

>>35625777
This is terrible bait. Are you just that desperate for (You)'s or are you literally retarded?
Name 3 people who realized they could possibly have a career stopped being a waitress/cleaner and did it. 3 people you know personally. If it happens all the time you should have lots of examples. More than 3.

>>35626123
Are you on facebook?

It's pretty much just that everyday. I mean I deleted my account years ago and never looked back. I can't imagine what it's like being on there now as a 30+ year old robot, like high school that never ends.

except requirements are going up for all starting positions every year

I would take steroids if I knew where to get them at

One of my first experiences on facebook, back when it was just still ex-high school classmates finding each other back in like 2007, was that this failed normie manlet with a unibrow who used to make fun of me back in like grade 8 tried to make fun of me online again when we were 20 years old.

I barely remember what the exchange was word-for-word but I said something like "Wow Normand that was pretty rude! Did I do or say something to make you upset?" and suddenly he was as quiet as corpse.

It made me realize how pretty much everyone who picked on me when we were kids were only doing it so that they could feel better about themselves and their own flaws and shortcomings.

I'm a complete normie myself (job with decent wages, gf, several close friends, socially competent, etc) and I can still see that this is garbage turbonormie advice. You're an asshole for acting like it's so simple.

A lot of the people here are spergy as shit. Without getting obscenely lucky and having opportunities handed to them on a silver platter they're never going to make enough money to achieve all of the things you listed, because climbing the wageslave ladder to make a good living requires social skills, never mind the countless other qualities that people here tend to lack.

Not everyone has the strength to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

My life is good, and I work to maintain the things I have, but I'm not under any sort of delusion that I "earned" everything I have through sheer force of will. A lot of it is just dumb fucking luck. Have some respect for the fact that a lot of the people here got fucked over by the genetic lottery.
