Talking is boring if you aren't a Chad

All you'll get is basic polite shit like "haha the weather's great, my day sucked" etc etc and fake basic shit

Then Chad goes up and gets invited to parties, social groups, and gets girls numbers within minutes
>>
I didn't, but I'm trying to.

Our memories have a way of forcing us onto a familiar path, a vision of the future we see often and one that we hate.
You have to smash that future and convince yourself you'll live a better one, and begin to build it.

how do you do this? do you live with your parents? if not, how do you afford it?

I finally got a job rating websites from my room for $15 an hour. Did a complete 360 and haven't looked back since.
>>
You have to hit absolute rock bottom first. Different people have different standards of bottom but you'll recognise yours when you get there.

For me it was losing my job (that I hated) because I spent 24 hours straight playing Xenoblade Chronicles and eating a McDonald family feast for sustenance instead of showing up for work. I never bothered contacting them again after working there for 4 years. This was a few weeks after delivering a perfect straight fails for the semester at university, getting a 6 month academic suspension.

12 months later I had a hot gf, a new, higher paying job as a tard wrangler while also volunteering with the student union, that I went on to be elected President of while completing my two degrees.

You have to hit that bottom though to shed everything that was holding you down. When that's done, you scope what you have left in your life and ask who you can for support. For me I had a great Dad who helped out with some money and supportive housemates who helped me find a new job and introduced me to a girl I could ejaculate inside of without a condom. I owe all my success to those people.

>>
>>36205925
actually that's not realy true, i drastically reduced the weed.
i was really good at school, so sometimes i just went to the doctor and stayed home for a week, smoking weed. That was in 2010.
only in recent years, have i quit it completely.

Joined the navy at 24. Was going now where. Still not going anywhere. I'm waiting for my contract to end. One more year... I'm currently stationed in Sasebo, Japan. You weebs would think it's awesome. I did too. But you know. It's all on me. Not trying hard enough when we're in port. My life is turned around, but mentally I'm a god damn wreck. Why is the navy accepting of depression? I seeked help, I got prozac. I wanted To be kicked out. Fuck this shit. So my life is turned around financially, but mentally? I'm gone.

I found a site that pays $10 PER website tested/rated, but they ask you to do a task on the site. Can take anywhere from 10-20 minutes, also I don't think you can test as many as you want, like they send you websites to test. It's free and easy though. I doubt you'd make a living off of it, unless they're letting you test 10-30 websites a day.

I'm sure they only let you a test few each day or something because they don't want to pay someone $1,400 a month, if anything it's just extra pocket cash. And all the money is sent to a Paypal account that you set up.

Worked out and started being friendlier to people, decided to get a gf that would motivate me to work harder

I did not. I just hope all my troubles magically disappear and do nothing.

I became proactive in reaching my goals.

I eventually burned out anyways. Specially when I discovered I've got a massive ED. Since then I just stopped bothering.
>>
>>36208405
What is ED? Erectile dysfunction?
>>
>>36204687
org-mode helped me
>>
>>36208405
Most of the time that can be fixed that with a whole foods plant based diet. You're 50x more likely to have a heart attack if you have ED, so get your diet in order today.
>>
i did no fap. today i relapsed on day 25, but in the last 3 months i did more than the previous 3 years, and i was trying my hardest a lot of those years too

sometimes a breakthrough magically happens i guess. still a virgin tho at 26

what drugs do you do anon? are you worried that you're living relentlessly in the short-term and that your lifestyle isn't sustainable
>>
>>36204687

Started lifting, left parents, rent my own place, got a job, changed my style a bit, git goid haircut, always clean and smell good. Still khv and no social circle except work but much more confident. Can drink whenever i want, do drugs etc. I am this close to making it.
>>
>>36208691

Khv 29 here. Hold on. Improve yourself in other ways. No fap is temporary fix.

I quit school at a young age and stopped socialising, years passed and I had no HS diploma, no job, no money etc
Now I'm turning it around again. I went abroad, learnt languages, got working experience, now trying to gain access to uni. It feels so far away, but seeing the progress I've made I have to tell myself I'm going to make it.
>>
>>36204687
I make many efforts but they all end up the same way, which is worse than things were than when I tried to make some change. I have no idea why I even exist with luck this bad. Like what the fuck is the point

>believing you can still turn your life around

I've accepted that I'm worthless. It doesn't feel good, but a burden has been taken off me.
>>
Worked for about 2 years part time after high school. Gave me time to recover from that trauma. Had a girlfriend which did wonders for my self esteem.

Went to college. Did not want to make minimum wage forever. Made some friends, worked in computer lab. Can now actually talk to people.

Lab job turns into full time job. Make money, meet my now wife. Had a baby, together, that responsibility.

Started running, really helped me feel better about myself, and that willpower to see things through.

Got my ugly ass teeth fixed. Now look like semi normal hooman

I stopped dwelling in the mistakes and short comings and started to pride my victories.

>I got out of my shitty job into a slightly better one.
>I took the courses I needed to finish uni. I went to several career fairs and got a job related to my degree shortly after I graduated and went from my slightly less shitty job to this one.
>I shadowed physicians (want to be a D.O. doctor).
>got back in touch with my old college school advisor
>I went on a few interviews and the last one I went on went very well.

A lot of people here are dealing with self-loathing to the point where it is warping their perception of themselves and the world around them. You have to realize that you are more capable than you think. Also you did more good for this world than you realize.

I moved out as soon as I got out of uni. Also why is living with your parents he'll on earth? Are you currently working?
>>
>>36205860
That's not rock bottom. Rock bottom is when you're scrounging garbage bins for food.
>>
>>36211441
i don't have any money to afford moving out without getting a job
>>36211443

Not like anybody on this board will actually follow this advice. Seriously, I recommend everybody do it. Out of 100 people, I'd say a majority would be friendly, a large minority would have a neutral reaction, and a very small amount would be assholes. You become a lot happier when you stop caring about the third group.
>>
1.) Start small. Redecorate your living area. Declutter. Get rid of shit you don't need. Make your living space look nice.
2.) Change the way you commute. If you take public transit, get a bike. If you bike everywhere, get a car. If you drive everywhere, take public transit. etc
3.) Cut down on the pornography. You don't have to go 100% nofap, just tone it down a little. You'd be surprised.
4.) Cut down the TV. Again, not 100%, but just a smidge. Get shit done.
5.) Get a job and learn to like it.
6.) Find something to look forward to.
7.) Go from there.

Not gonna fall for that old chestnut again!

Normies will have you believe that you should put yourself out there and be more confident, but if you just look weird, or are short or disabled or otherwise socially unpalatable, they WILL bait and prompt you into acting your own autistic spaghetti self.

They have no reason for you to succeed. The world is overpopulated and there's limited social roles for the alphas to fill. There's literally no reason for them to invest time and effort into helping you to improve yourself with constructive criticism. They don't want to make the competition any harder than it already is.

You're only good for entertainment value, nothing more.

All people will do is make fun of me and ridicule me behind my back despite any effort I put into being the ideal kind, nice gentleman that my mom has raised me to be, along with "you should...." input from females through all walks of my life. Now I realize why they gave me all these suggestions: Because deep down, they knew what a fucking pathetic retarded loser manlet that I was going to be and conditioned my behavior so that I'd subconsciously virtue signal myself to others as a doormat with exploitable resources.

>stop worrying about what others think of you
Except it has an effect on how their peers view you and it's better to let you troll yourself by not being friends with you and helping you become a better person.

I am going to kill myself.
