It is 9am and I am feeling pretty ok. I started watching BECK Mongolian Chop Squad again last night; my favourite anime basically ever. Its put me in a good mood, and I feel set to do some good, real study on /sec/ today!

Man thats been on my to do list for years now.

I got the looks but not the social skills, friends or any sort of life outside work. Currently about to start drinking. My night is going to be filled with alcohol, listening to music on youtube, posting on here and then cooking some burgers. Wish I had friends I could go out with even though I hate bars.

Me too I hate making plans and always regret them. Truth is I've always hated going out but I feel just as bad staying home.

>>37939683
This. After doing it some time, has it improve or worse your life? That's the question you have to answer.

>>37939683
No, American.
I stopped and went to beer mostly about a few months ago.

Only way I'm quitting alcohol is if I get a weed connection. Sitting home alone on a saturday night is bad enough, but sober? Just sitting there? Yeah that's not going to happen.

>>37939740
Read some book, make excercise. etc.

>>37939718
It doesn't matter. It's better than just sitting at home, alone.

>>37939740
This

>>37939787

Already do both, not going to help when the sun goes down and I start thinking about suicide.

Imagine what you're going to feel like when you get old, you look back at what you were doing in the prime of your youth and it was sitting in front of a computer alone every single friday and saturday night. Zero memories, zero fun, zero hook ups, zero friendships, zero good times. A big fat fucking zero on everything. And there is no making up for lost time, 25+ is already pretty old we're way past most college age kids. We're all going to be 30 very soon then what? Things get even worse.

>>37939792
Look I've been alone at the weekends since years and years ago. Today I only went out in the morning for a few hours with a friend to walk around.

I expend almost all my time watching stupid things in the internet. But I also try to read something, excercise, etc.

I sometimes also drink some beers but that's all, Just 2-4 beers. But 1+ liter of vodka in one day? That's crazy and stupid.

>>37939860

>friend

I don't have any friends. I got up early today, listened to a podcast while I drank my pre work out. I then drove down to the gym and had a great work out, then I went to the beach to work on my tan. After that it was just counting down to when I start drinking. My life is pathetic.

>>37939667

how long did you do it for?


not him but ive been drinking either 1L+ of liquor or 14-16 beers every single day for the past year


pretty sure i shaved off 10 years from my liver

>>37939852
Yes I have thought that too. This fucking generation with the fucking computers man, how many lifes ruined because internet and video games adicction...

I have had friends. experiences, girlfriend, went to college, I go to parties here and then but like 25% of my life have been sitting in fornt of the computer or video games. Yes, it's sad. That's the reason I try every day to reduce my time here and do other things. You can't do anything about the past now, only try to change the future. It's not easy to change a habit of 15+ years of being constantly in the computer but it can change little by little.

>>37939595
I know how you feel. I bulged a disc back in September, it's still numb hurts and I can't even lift a crate of water.

>>37939918
For years. On and off since I was 20, and I'm 25 now.

Get on that milk thistle. It helps your liver purge the bad stuff away. I swear it's the only reason I'm alive now. It works.

>>37939914
That sounds rather nice man. I live in a suburban/rural area though. I can't just walk outside and expect to see people. Everyone pretty much just sticks to their own families here.

>>37939917
How many time do you spend in the beach alone?

When I go alone I don't say more than 30-40 minutes.

And yes I have 2 friends to do things now. I have lost the rest of them. And this friend I went out this morning is a complete neet and I feel more and more frustated when I am with him because he doesn't try even a little to change his life. I keep meeting with him because has been my friend since school and because I don't have many friends now to do things but I think one day I will get tired of this friendship.

>>37938220
What kind of depression? I have MAJOR depression. Lol. Don't even feel that depressed desu, but the mental health professional I visited says I have the symptoms. I'm a negative nancy and have sleep issues.

>>37939852
I have some memories. They're just things I can't really share, and I don't really want to remember them. For example, I egged some car that had "brown pride" stickers.

>>37939595
Iktf. Stopped a few months ago when I got through 3 gallons of 100 proof in a week. Had a few beers and cocktails since then, but there's no buzz, and I don't really have the motivation to see how much I have to drink to feel loved again. Might pick up a handle around my birthday next year and see what happens, but it's nice leaving the extra $100 a week in my checking account.

Yeah about 45 minutes. I go to the beach just to tan my body and hope to meet girls, but it never happens. Best I'll get is they will look at me and say nothing. Then I go home and feel like crying.

>>37940365

Don't know what that refers to. Trailer parks are mainly full of single moms and seniors and any younger men here are most definitely not chads. In fact I don't know any other men between the ages of 20-60 here, there was one across the street from me but he fled the province after assaulting a teenager.

t. poorfag

>>37940776
That's right, money is worthless if you don't have anybody with whom spend it. But if you don't have anybody and you don't have money either, is worse.

With money you can do more things and it gives you more opportunities to find happyness or new people. You can do more things.

>>37940783
are you that guy that hangs out at Huntington Beach?

>>37940783

>>37940763
>>37940744
I'm the person who originally wanted the union job and I have two worthless degrees and a degrading shift work job wiping the asses of retards.

If I could ride my bike to an office to slave for the public sector instead of driving my car to some spastics house so I can take him to the pool and have to clean him when he shits himself in the water, I would be so happy. Hell im applying for three public sector jobs today.

>>37940812

Unless I stop having a personality disorder, I'm gonna die as an incel virgin without children. Being a millionaire wouldn't save me from this hell. When you're young and naive, you'll think that only money matters but without a woman. Your life is incomplete, because humans are puzzle pieces that need to be connected and being the defective piece is hell.

I'd give up all my electronics and live in a shack in a third world country if meant I got to hear someone say "I love you" when I come home from a day of hard labor. At least I'd have the motivation to provide for her, but providing only for yourself is a fool's errand.

>>37940846

>Yeah I don't have any of that sadly

Well that would be a better starting point than just leering at girls at the beach.
Get a job somewhere with a bunch of normies your age and take it from there.

>>37940783
Yeah It's not if you aren't alpha as fuck. If you show some insecurity they would ignore you or laugh if they are trash whores.

That's not the best way to meet girls. I would try different things like trying some activity where you can meet people. 90% of couples are formed in class, work or soem other activity. People make activities hoping to meet someone there because is the traditional way to meet your partner.

That thing of aproaching girls in the pub or in other place, girls that you don't know at all and try to have somethign with them... that's only for alphas and whores.

>>37940868

Didn't you know that when doing your degree though? I'd rather sort mail than wipe an autist's ass, but I'm not a cuckold who would ever consider slaving away 4 years to get a nursing certificate or whatever you do.

>>37940871

I completely agree with you. If I had millions in my bank account right now it wouldn't change anything with women.

>>37940872

You're right, but I used to work a job with tons of normies, chads and stacies and it just reinforced the feeling that I will never fit in and never lose my virginity. Weird thing is they actually like me, but I just pushed them all away. I now work a blue collar job with 99% men, no way of meeting girls. I make a lot more money now but I am hopeless

>>37940896
Hint: I'm not qualified in what I do. I have two arts degrees. I'm not qualified for anything.

>>37939852
>25+ is already pretty old
its this mindstate that makes so many people in this thread miserable.

if its so old, then why does a twenty five year old have literally two lifetimes ahead of him? The average life expectancy in my country is 82. Are you seriously suggesting someone who is 30% of the way through an RPG is anywhere near done?

Youd tell him to gitgud and keep going.

>>37940938

The thing is your youth is really short, like teens to early/mid 20's. After that you just get old and wait to die. Every 30+ year old I know is miserable, even the guy that has a nice wife, a kid and good job is drinking himself to death.

>>37940871
>When you're young and naive, you'll think that only money matters but without a woman. Your life is incomplete,

That's because of social pressure. We men have less presure for being single at 25+ than women though. I only had gf for four years and it didn't work so well most of the time. I can say that when it ended I felt better and free. Now at this point, after two years and a half of the breakup, having gf is not my main concern and I can say that I have learnt to be happy with myself and some friends here and then. Beeing alone is another type of happiness, can do whatever you want when you are alone in you house, you don't have to try nothing for no one, etc. Yes at the end it gets boring but there is happiness in it too.

>>37940540

Are you fucking retarded?

The pay is decent, there's actually a pension, sick days, vacation, and Mr. Shekleburgstein isn't demanding that you to work every weekend.

Sure you have to put up with a couple morons because we're pretty much unfirable unless we outright steal shit in front of our boss, get caught, and then do it again multiple times, but that's a small price to pay for actual job security in this cimate.

>>37940938
the thing is, 20s is supposed to be the prime of your life. Its easy for ppl to say shut up about feeling old when theyve had their youths not taken from them.

What life experiences and skills do you not have that most people our age are expected to have?

>>37941015

Only for women. Men get happier as they age, even when we get really old and our bodies break down. The 20s are the least happy period of time in a man's life on average.

>>37940914

Chad and Stacey are a meme, in real life they are actual individuals.
If you didn't click with the last batch of normies, then find a new batch.
Get a weekend job somewhere just for the socialization aspect.
Since you already have a main job, you can treat the weekend job as a hobby and just quit if no one likes you or it isn't comfy.
You just need to be meeting as many people as possible and forming connections. This is how you actually meet girls. This is what you should be doing instead of just sitting on the beach.

> I only had gf for four years
Pic related

It's better to be loved than to have never loved at all. Also, it's not because of social pressure it's a biological urge that most humans will have as a manifestation of their will to live.

I can never have friends because of my personality disorder, I don't blame people for not wanting to be with me. However, it's not a good life at least you got to experience someone saying "I love you" despite it being contingent.

>>37941003

>>37940938
25 is the end of youth and the end of all the potential you had. Your later years are for capitalising on the education, skills and opportunity you gained during this time.

Ever played and RPG where you NEET levelled up properly and now the enemies are too strong for you to progress.

>>37941099

How old are you?
Restaurants are usually staffed with a lot of sociable persons in their 20s. You meet a lot of sociable people there because the waitress-type is quite used to talking to people.

There's usually a front-of-house/back-of-house divide though and back-of-house is usually guys (which isn't a bad thing just saying)

Gets worse in your 30s lads

It's because of social pressure when you're a teenager. As a 28 years old khhv I assure you I don't give a shit about social pressure. If I had to the bottom of it it's simply skin hunger, the need for affection and affectionate touch that's driving me insane.

>>37941059
I've been the 9th wheel recently. Iktf. It feels surreal when you realize that you're the only virgin in the room and all your friends had several relationships, cuddled and had sex and nice memories with many people.

I'm 26 so old as fuck, I'm not some 19 year old fresh out of high school.

>>37941076

I was paid much less to do much harder work for more hours per week with a shitty schedule that had me work at least 11 days in a row.

What happens to you exactly?

>>37941187
Think that if you are a woman it's worse. Women have to have their kids before they reach 30-32 because is too dangerous to have kids after that. Imagine having the pressure of find someone to love and who truly loves you to have your kids (if you want to have kids off course).

>>37941252

I avoid being with people due to intense anxiety and I'm also socially stunted.

>>37941202

The older I get the more obvious it's becoming to me that depression is incurable.

It's a permanent and irreversible modification of your mind.

I have had panic attacks and become totally freeze in fornt of people in the past. Get so nervious I can't even speak. I stop meeting with many friends for months because of that. I went to the psycologist and it help me to overcome it.

I still have a lot of anxiety, depression and obsession that is the worst of them all for me.

But the only way you can overcome that anxiety is putting you in that situations.

I will recommend you this youtube channel that talks about obsession. It has helped me to understand how Obssesive Compulsive Disorder works and when you learn how it works you have more chances to fix it. Know your enemy.

>The thing is your youth is really short
So what?

>>37941015
>the thing is, 20s is supposed to be the prime of your life.
According to who? Society pumps this message out so young people who are full of hormones dont kill themselves because they are a bit sad because of their brain chemicals. Your prime is whenever the fuck you make it to be. I know for a fact my dad is enjoying his life a fucktonne more now he is 46 than he ever was in his teens or twenties. Mostly due to his kids being out of the house, but he was never this happy in his 30s, and he was an alcoholic in his 20s.

>>37941113

How much time have you being posting here?

I post here since like less than a year, I started visitting this site when the Trump campaign and sometimes it feels like has been years an years.

My internet time has limited to 4chan, youtube, and almostn othing more. 4chan it's like the internet for me now. It worries me that I can't quit from being here hours and more hours day after day here but I have had other addictions in the past to other forums, I thought the same and then I got bored of it and moved to other things.

That's the great thing about family, you don't really connect until you've opened up to each other, exposed your inner self and allow yourself to be hurt by them.

>>37941561

True, we all have our challenges but still if your senpai wants you to work that probably means you could. Maybe they'll help you find a job.

>>37941307
Yeah man, I realized I have been this sad since at least 6th grade. I guess I have just learned to live with it.

>>37941187
At least you have friends. I cant seem to make any.

Of all threads in /r9k/, this is the one that terrifies me the most. I don't want to live at 26 what people expect to be the life of a depressed 65yo. I'm trying to keep friends in college (though I have a feeling we won't stay in contact much when college ends) and trying to get my life sorted out while I'm young. I also try to always treat my family well, like going out with my mother and always visiting my father (they're divorced) and playing with my little sister, so we can have strong bonds in the future. Do you guys have any advice?

The thing that bothers me the most right now is tfw no gf and having no idea how to get one because chan culture has made it difficult for me to relate with other people, but I know I'm digging my own grave here and that it'll be harder in the future (though I'll probably have a steady job).

>>37941844
It all depends if you get a good job after college, gain your independence and from there you can built something.

>>37941844
>Do you guys have any advice?
See:>>37939450

That's legit great but a reminder that you can have a good job and still be a total social fuckup. So it's not a magic bullet. Still good to have, can't imagine how shit it'd be to be broke min wage or neet shitter on top of nearing wizardry.

I have an uncle that lived on our couch playing vidya for over 8 years, past him becoming 40. Then, he found via an online dating service a belorussian women(we are russian but we live in london). She was obviously a gold digger looking for a way out of belorussia. Subsequently over the relationship he went complitely sperg lord, blamed all his life failures on my parents who just supported his neetdom and then he told everyone to fuck of moved to russia with the gold digging whore who he married and now works as an engeneer and supports her and her 2 children. Did he maked it out of neetdom? He has a wife and a job. Also, is there a loser NEET gene? Do you guys have any neets in the family?

i just want a cute nerdy gf to spend my days with. please. i need it

>>37939342
Stop going to places like these. You may not actually take all the stuff here seriously or think of them too much, but the exposure and given enough time, you'll just realize that you're way in deep.

I've been here since 08.

My brother is a neet, but we were raised by single mom who never pushed us to do shit. Your brother probably was right in blaming his parents. Bad parents fuck you up hard and it sounds like that Belorussian woman was extremely good for him and kicked his butt into gear. Good for them.

Thank you. I'm in med school so financial independence won't be a problem but I can't deal with too much stress so I'll probably work as little as possible to still have a comfy life and help my family. Still afraid of loneliness, though, it will eat me up if I don't find a way out fast.

>>37938473
How is your dad a pussy? How did this effect you?

>>37942268

I'm not posting pics, our story is odd enough that they'd know I posted it if they were to find out about it. Fuck that.

She's like a 5.5/10. Not extremely hot and she has kind of bad hygiene but not ugly either. Kind of thicc in the good sense which is nice but if she put on like 20 pounds she'd be a chubster and there's a good chance she would after getting married I would think considering she has a fairly sedentary lifestyle and has bad exercise and eating habits. She also dyes her hair stupid colours which I don't like. If she stuck to her natural hair, lost like 10 pounds and brushed her damn teeth she could probably be a 7 or 7.5.

Eh.

The creationist part is kinda bad. The Christian part is totally fine. These days, you probably WANT a Christian girl, if they're the type that hold traditional Christian values. I never, ever thought I'd be saying this shit, but that's how morally depraved women are these days. You want a Christian, just decide if the Creationist part is worth it.

It may not come up that much at all. You'd probably be fine if you just went to church with her once a week.

I can't offer anything to world. But i just say get out of here do anything. People like me exist, and we live in a state of Doom that I think would turn a psychiatrist insane. Total nihilism and annihilation. There is no "potential." There is no second chance at my age. There is no way to sugar coat it anymore, basically. I have over 5000 hours played on Skyrim, and that's not even my favorite game. I once spent an entire real life day larping a life in skyrim because that's how far I'm gone.
Don't be like me if you are still under 30. Do anything else. Literally go be homeless. Take a one way plane ticket to Laos. Join a cult. Just do something else.

>>37943854
it's not a joke. I thought that was a meme when I was younger. A decade 30-40 felt like the same distance of time that one year 18 to 19 felt. Its so ridiculous when I think back on it. Its so ridiculous how long time felt then.

There's worse than that outside of r9k. My father's sister is out of her fucking mind and unmedicated, refuses to get any treatment.

I'm fucking overthinking this shit and I hate it. I've told myself that if I get a chance, I'm going to ask her to do dinner, but when I imagine actually doing it I fucking freak out. I thought I was over this childish shit of getting nervous asking girls out. Not that I have much experience

Being 25 isn't so bad
Just wish I had my own place and was making at last 5K more, then Id be quite comfortable.

Don't let this die pleasee

considerably better outlook on life since i'm not on depression simulator (4chan/reddit) all the time. it's been about 5 months since i'd made the change.

been filling the hours by getting into hobby electronics. enrolled in a gym too.

i'm 25 and working a shitty minimum wage job. the more i talk to these customers though, the more i realize how much everyone hates their lives. life is expensive in the first world and people are stressed from overworking themselves. no wonder everyone has the same goals.

the nihilism hasn't waned. in fact, it's shaping me to fit a more "productive" lifestyle. life is a game and it's a lot more fun with money, sex, and recognition. i'm shooting for two of them now.

fellow robots, quit fixating on the depression and do something with a couple of your youngest years. this will all be over before you know it.

Not the guy you responded, but does it really help? I have long shifts in a shitty job (we're talking 12-14 hours + 3-4 hours of commuting here), so when I get home, I just want to rest, sleep and do nothing in general, I barely force myself to do some basic cleaning around the house on my days off.

How I'm supposed to go to bars clubs by my own? Where do I find social circle so I could at least try to have a shot at girls? I finally have motivation to visit places and events but it is beyond autistic to go alone. I went to concerts and literally everyone comes in pairs or groups, how do I even approach them as a desperate loner?

It does, especially in the beginning. Your body generally becomes more lazy overtime, so exercise is like pumping some hot air into a balloon, only way to keep it afloat before it crashes and burns.

Are there any boards for NEETS other than r9k?

There's Wizchan and hikkichan, and /n/ on Uboachan.

>>37949891
this describes me to a T. i'm on my own, I'm paying my bills, I have a car and my own apartment and a dog but I have no social life and I have no prospects for a romantic interest.

I've talked about this often on 4chan and it seems like the only places to meet people after college is at work or through shared interests. I did meet some cool people in a writing group recently but that just ended and they all live in another city from me so I'll probably never see any of them again

One more year and I can join you all. Is it too late?

>>37949891
Same m8, I'm a little older and have few friends but they're all paired up so as you can guess, time is scarce. Only women in my social circle are coworkers and they don't like me either. Maybe try going to university again? I might try part time studying something semi interesting like sociology.

>>37950193

It's not, I was pretty bad at 25, but now I'm 27, half the girls at my job want to fuck, I hang out with tons of coworkers and somehow turned into a chad.

Wish I could tell you what I did, because I have no idea. People didn't really talk to me and now girls are coming up to me saying I'm their man and people are inviting me to parties and shit.

I don't even use snapchat or anything, how the fuck?

>>37950193
I'd say. 22 was silent before the storm, but at 23 shit really hit the fan and I'm still caught in hopelessness of this fucked up age.
Now I'm 25 and at crossroads because I started looking for a job, but I can already feel the force grabbing me by the ankles to pull me down for good. If I won't find it, it'll be all damage control until death.

I got masters degree so going back again to uni would be pushing it. Besides my only option would be evening studies, and from my experience at masters studies there is no social benefits to it, everyone is tired after work, spends 3 hours in classes with no brakes to socialize in between, leaves immediately to go home to sleep. No contact with students from other classes. It was nothing like bachelor studies where there were frat houses, clubs, student council and all other events that I ignored so I could play video games

Women don't have interests. A cycling club or a cooking class maybe. You'd have to aggressively sniff out the single ones (if any) and hit on them. Problems with this are if you get rejected it will be awkward to continue going to the thing.

You learn PUA and aggressively approach large volumes of women at disposable social venues with a 1% or 2% success rate. But theoretically all you need is one success and you've impregnated a bitch thus fulfilling your biological drive then you can know peace.

Yeah, my mother is pretty open that she does not care for how I feel, she wants me to act happy and she doesn't give a fuck.
I've decided to endure it, and simply move out, after I can afford a car and a studio/single room apartment. I have a feeling I won't be able to, ever, but I'm still gathering info and sending out applications.
I hate this house. It's like a morgue for my hope and dreams, I would honestly prefer to pay rent or even have flatmates rather than my asshole family.
My mother wants to guilt shame me for thinking about myself, but she literally does not think of anyone but herself.
Pisses me off, all of my University classmates had parents that supported them financially and in their lifechoices, mine have ruined any friendships, budding relationships, and dreams I had. I honestly don't even know if I'll ever be happy, but I want to try to live alone at least, so I can piece myself together with some asshole yelling at me.
>>37950571
Tried InterPals. I'm average with a pretty face on the right picture, but I only attracted uglies, fatsos and crazies. Finding a gf is the last thing on my priority list. I think you can't be happy with anyone, if you aren't happy with yourself, and I pretty much hate myself and am in constant state of despair.

I heard once that in the average life span, a man reaches max strength in a period of 5 years, in those 5 years, it's almost like anything seems possible if imagined. Once those 5 years pass though, it is said that you lose nearly half that energy, and whatever foundation you built in that time is what you continue to build on for the rest of your life...I personally believe that period of time is the years 20-25. Good luck my friend...

>>37950449
Take my advice and move out. I did it few months after getting a job (to know that I can keep it). My parents were very supportive and enablers, but I could still feel them silently judging me (If I went out, I could see their approval, that made me want to avoid going out). Pros: I learned to do basic cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping. It is not much but I no longer feel like manchild (upgraded to loner looser) Its a bit easier to communicate with people if I see myself as more equal to them. Cons: loneliness is truly crushing. Even annoying family is better than nothing. I got roommate but it doesn't help that much. This will either help you motive yourself to socialize (yeah right) or it will help to finally kys

Yeah it is curved for me too, but that isn't the worst. I have vitiligo on dick and it looks like shit. Not my picture but similar effect.

>>37940319
Your life sounds like a real life anime fampai.

>>37950777
Yeah, I've decided I won't fuck myself over and start buying shit that will only drag me down. Moving out is necessary for my sanity at this point. I need to be able to pack all of my shit in a car and leave it unattended for months at a time, though. I work (well, want to work) on ships so I'm literally not home more often than not.

>>37950844
Fuck. At least it's coming in on the palm like you said. The only thing I can say is that when me and my gf started having sex, I got folliculitis, which looks an awful lot like herpes, and we worked through that - though that was after sex, not before.

I also had an amazing bout of ED/performance anxiety, which meant the first time literally ended in about 10 seconds when my dick decided it wasn't going to show. As much as I'd hate to make you guys worry more, this took like 3-4 times to get over and actually have sex. Also got a bit tipsy and super-horny, and just took her on the spot on the kitchen floor.

Just don't drink too much if you guys are in the position I was in - like, one PROPER glass of whiskey. Not a fucking filled-to-the-brim glass, a proper glass.

I don't know should I pursue this, or call it quits and become a retailcuck or something. It really seems like this line of work is over, and newbies are fucked over, and I was never the lucky one.
I can't stomach the prospect of looking for work endlessly, when all I wanted in life was some stability. I should just fucking kill myself to spare myself the trouble of living an unfulfilling life any further

What's the point in going on when there's no realistic girlfriend possibility?

The last real girlfriend prospect I've had was years ago. All since has been hopeful delusions.

Where do I even meet single women at 25+ years old? Dating sites don't work unless you want a fat single mother.

I think today's a good day to day drink.

>>37952796

I'm employed in a good job (have money), no kids, not fat, halfway decent looking.

It depends on your job though. I teach rural kids who are very, very nice and friendly. A little slow though. I also teach adults at a big food company who are also very polite and educated. I implemented a workout regimen that I follow strictly and that has helped me tremendously. Plus I force myself to go out at least once a week. Forcing myself to socialize has been important. You need to socialize. It's part of your brain. It's part of what makes you human. You need it.

>>37952843
Get a job. Get a job. Inmediately. Then after you finish working go work out. Every day. Then organize your room. Live in a tidy organized environment. Sort your finances, quit smoking, drinking and doing drugs. Quit medication. Study if you want to. Force yourself to socialize at least once a week. Make friends even if they are neet losers. Read. Do something for someone else. Force yourself to change.

You can enjoy life again if you move out. I just left my parents a month ago at 29. It feels weird at first but after a week you start to really like it. I got my own kitchen. I go to the store and put food in my own fridge. I take a shit on MY toilet. I sit MY tv about 5 feet away from MY leather chair and watch shitty japanese cartoons. I can watch porn without headphones. I wake up and walk around naked all I want because this place is MINE.

It's worth it if you have a full time job. I don't even make a lot. Just enough to have a few extra hundred at the end of the month. But the feeling that I get when I walk out the door and lock my apartment makes me feel like a real adult.

Like what? I studied maritime navigation, and it's becoming more and more obvious that this line of work belongs to Philipines and Ukrainians. Shit crashed hard around 2012-2013, when I was halfway through my studies. Anywhere but the ships, this degree is useless. I wouldn't mind a regular job, I was in for money, and it looks like the salaries go down so you can actually get more on land in most cases and you miss a lot of stressting shit by not going to ships.

So once you're past your very early 20s, you're basically past the "point of no return", right? Where any potential you might have no longer matters?

25 here, still living with parents. No job, no education. Looks like I'm not moving out anytime soon.

Going to work in an hour to inherit someone else's mess, which I'm going to try and inevitably fail to make better, therefore passing my mess off onto the next person. An endless cycle.

>>37955048
No, it's just that you've built up such a wall that it's hard to jump it. But if you continue on this path, imagine how thick and high that wall will be when you're 40.

It's still not the point of no return, though - that's death or whenever your brain turns to mush (alzheimers, etc)

I think my only hope for a social life is for some online dating girl to take pity on me and bring me into her little circle.

Seems my plentyoffish account is the only chance I have left at 29.

Don't pick bland staceys and expect a relationship - they're just looking for sex, and if you want anything to do with them, you'll keep your head in the same space. She may have been also expecting you to jump her bones (kind of likely, actually) and you didn't do that.

As I said before in this or another thread, try to go for sex first and let a relationship just kind of happen. It sounds backwards, but that's what we do at this age.

Nah. What no one wants to admit is your early 20s sucks hard. No one has their shit figured out. People who le you see that you assune sre successful usually dont have it together either; they have major debts to credit cards or just suck at work. Those that are of sounder financial mind usually don't make enough to enjoy life like their debtor buddies.

Besides, you'll likely live until you're 80. Its silly to think that your outlook wont change in another 20 years like it has from when you were 5.

>>37944687
There is hope, but it basically requires the entire world being turned on its head. All of civilization has to be razed and switched with something else. Like some post-apocalyptic society, where maybe feral children would come upon you and keep you as some kind of sage or lore-keeper.

You have performance anxiety! I went through exactly the same thing. Used cockring instead of viagra as mentioned by other anon, though.

The main thing that helped wasn't simply the little bit of whiskey I was drinking the night I really got it up - it was no longer being afraid of disappointing her. I was getting what I wanted, not doing something to please her.

Have sex when you want sex, not when you feel it's expected.

My parents say me down when I went off to college at 18 and they told me how awful their 20s were, especially for my mom. My mom didn't tell my dad this but she was depressed until she met him at 29, she was in and out of psychiatrists's offices, addicted to marijuana and wine for about 10 years of her life, she basically said she hated herself throughout her 20s. And that shocked me because she's one of the nicest, friendliest, easiest-to-get-along-with people I've ever met.

I think your 20s suck more than people want to admit. People want to think that being in the prime of their sexual maturity is really great and they want to portray this to the rest of the world but in reality I think most 20-somethings are lost, aimless, have self-esteem issues and are still figuring themselves out.

You know what to do then.

I think you're probably right about that. The first girl I tried to have sex with I picked up at a bar, I was shocked with how alpha I was that night, she texted me to hang out and I literally walked in that place, took her by the waist and kissed her, she kissed back and told me she wanted to go to my place. We were making out, I was hard, she was jerking me off and as soon as I tried to get it in I went soft. I have to be honest though that the entire time I was walking over there I was nervous about being able to perform.

I ended up eating her out and she fell asleep but I know she was disappointed because we never spoke to each other after that.

What if this is how it ends?
What if humans really were around a lot longer than we think, and we're just coming back in a cycle now?

Has technology doomed us? Sure, a few of us will escape. I'm on my way to doing so now. But the number of damned is far greater than the number of those in my position...

Leave now and don't look back
take risks ask girls out a no won't kill you
don't be a fat ugly turd that wants to date 5-7/10s date within your pool and aim to better yourself so you can get someone you'd be happy with
realize looks aren't everything too, CASH RULES ALL work for money fuck the people who say money doesn't bring happiness
hobbies and relationships(friends moreso than romantic) bring happiness

I wish I would've been pushed to take risks and work for a better future instead I'm a 30 year old neet with no friends. Also put in effort for friendships I used to have friends but I put 0 effort as if I was some kind of king that people should be happy they're hanging out with, eventually people get tired of always starting text convos and always asking you out until you're slowly pushed out of their life.

Depends, honestly. The denomination and location of the church can be a huge factor. Try to go to a local non denominational church that's in a city, don't go to your outside of town country mom and pop church, for obvious reasons.

I was getting this from time to time, but I've found that it was just an easy way to not want to try. I refuse to ignore dragons any longer.

I don't know that this is exactly what you're doing, but I'd like to bring the possibility of it being so to your attention.

Yeah but I don't recommend the book as a self help book, that's just one line that he was referencing to something else. The book is about something else completely lol but I like that line.

I recommend

There are other books but this one is good and to the point and not some nu-male garbage.

leave /r9k/ and don't come back; this place is poison.

at first, it's all jokes and stupid memes, but after a while you start to believe them. before you realize it, years will have passed, and you'll be taking all those memes seriously.

then you'll be the one posting in these threads about how your life is shit and how you've stood still while all your former peers have passed you by.
