>>38212902
Yay! I am on time for once! Hey Nick.
>>
>>38213009

Sup Coats.
>>
>>38213025
Not much here to report. Just another day in the neighborhood.
>>
I have a very Borderline connection today, expect long periods of silence, or even sudden disappearance. I'll try to keep you informed some other way if I can.
>>
>>38213038
I understand. Sorry today is rough for you Nick.
>>
>>38213052

Just my Internet connection. I spent 6 hours at my school, just hanging out with workmates and kiddies, to be with some humans instead of alone. It was cool enough.
>>
>>38213052

Just you and me for now.

Have you read this already?

http://www.blueknot.org.au/Resources/General-Information/Types-of-child-abuse

All things listed there are actual forms of abuse; if you go, "Yes, I had that, but it's not abuse," kindly shove a few fingers up your butt and trust the article instead of yourself.

Report back whenever you want.
>>
>>38213121
Oh, I thought you meant you had Borderline today. Today has mostly been a shitposting day. Exhausted since I messed up my schedule staying up and talking to someone, but luckily it is the weekend.
>>
Hello everyone. Just popping in to say hi and apologize for yesterday, not sure if I insulted anyone.
>>
>>38213219

I don't think so. It was all fine.
>>
>>38213166
Indeed Nick, quite surprising when I am used to the lengthy threads. Hey, nice to have 1/1 time sometimes.

My mother perhaps did emotional abuse as I said before. The article sounds like stuff she did. My father on the other hand is not like this.
>>
>>38213219
Heh, I should be apologizing for just disappearing. I ended up falling asleep from exhaustion after guitar lessons and forgot all about this thread until I awoke a few hours later.
>>
>>38213261
>My mother perhaps did emotional abuse as I said before. The article sounds like stuff she did. My father on the other hand is not like this.

From what you told me, your parents were both insanely abusive, but this may not be obvious to you. As I must have mentioned, it wasn't obvious to me either.
>>
>>38213346
I find what my father did to be logical given the circumstances. My mother was irrational and a bit insane. But my father was perfectly fine.

Today we went to Mcdonalds together. He cranked Metallica to drown out the screaming Puerto Rican in the back of his car yelling for help that we work with. It was rather entertaining, nothing negative about the experience.
>>
>>38213241
That's good. I'd actually like to brush up on one point you made yesterday. I think it's vital but I can't understand it. If you don't mind that is.

>You don't get to choose whether you play the game or not. Whether it is rigged or not remains to be discussed. If it is rigged against you, it is also rigged against others in your favour. So that's a moot point and means nothing.

Why is this relevant? If it's also rigged against others, how does that point become moot then?
>>
>>38213406
>I find what my father did to be logical given the circumstances. My mother was irrational and a bit insane. But my father was perfectly fine.

According to you, an emotionally blunted young man. The scary part is that since you think it was fine, you'd do it too, and in case you don't realise this, some of your beliefs are highly abnormal. I read threads after I left, to keep up, so even if I'm not there, I go back to read.
>>
>>38213219
Hey Dan. Everything is fine don't worry
>>
>>38213469
Goddammit i forgot the name, it's me.
Stressful day and i'm tired though
>>
>>38213409
>Why is this relevant? If it's also rigged against others, how does that point become moot then?

If someone cheats against everyone, it's relevant, but if everyone is somehow "cheated" on, then it becomes moot. It's not cheating if it's part of the game.
>>
>>38213507
Some people get cheated much less, some get cheated much more. Which is why I think it's not moot.
>>
>>38213526

Suppose so, then what? Then nothing. Dan, that's the point you never seem to get: then NOTHING.

Even if it were so, it changes nothing. What are you going to do about it, pout?

What do you think pouting will achieve? Are you this emotionally arrested that your only idea is to pout like an upset kid who hopes that mom and pop will notice and change things for you?

You know that won't happen.
>>
>>38213559
Thanks for the answer.

So there is nothing to be done. Like I thought.
>>
>>38213619
>So there is nothing to be done. Like I thought.

Only because you don't want to try. Have you accepted living a life you dislike? Have you, really?

Have you agreed to cuck yourself?
>>
>>38213637
That's the question. What's the bigger cuckoldry.

To reject the game and live a life of discontent.

Or to accept the game, try to do the best with what I've got.

I honestly think the second option is more humiliating. But I guess that's the mental illness talking because no one sane would say that.
>>
>>38213702
>I honestly think the second option is more humiliating.

Describe what's humiliating about doing the best with what you have? I'm curious.
>>
>>38213740
The game is still rigged against you. You are still being treated worse. Except by playing the game you are agreeing to it. And if you agree to it, it's like allowing it.

Sure, if you don't play it or stay angry like I am, it doesn't stop the game from happening, but at least you're not bending over and agreeing with it.
>>
>>38213740
>Describe what's humiliating about doing the best with what you have? I'm curious.

I'll illustrate while waiting for your answer:

A and B.

Both are soldiers.

A has a shitty rifle that jams often.

B has the same rifle.

A decides to do the best he can to survive. He goes charging, and manages to get some kills and survive.

B sits his ass down, folds his arms and mutters complaints about lucky motherfuckers. He refuses to use his shitty rifle, and when the Germans come, they kill him instantly because he wasn't even carrying his rifle.

Who has the more humiliating behaviour in your opinion?

B is the only answer; the only one people would actually laugh about or find ridiculous.
>>
>>38213795
>The game is still rigged against you.

Not my question.

>You are still being treated worse.

Not my question, not true.

> Except by playing the game you are agreeing to it. And if you agree to it, it's like allowing it.

Still not my question.

>but at least you're not bending over and agreeing with it.

Indeed, instead, you bend over fuck yourself. Is that better?
>>
>>38213702
I mean, the second option have the possibility of giving you something great and possibly happiness, the first one will only give you unhappiness because you start convinced that you will hate everything and everyone
>>
>>38213796
What about soldier C who has a great rifle with red dot sights who will get more promotions and medals than solider A because obviously he can be more effective soldier. And then everyone will keep telling soldier A to just work harder and will claim that the only difference between A and C is that one of them tries harder.
>>
>>38213810
>Indeed, instead, you bend over fuck yourself. Is that better?
I think it's in general better to fuck yourself over than to have someone else fuck you over. Then at least it's your choice.
>>
>>38213821
>What about soldier C

Lookie here, faggot, first you answer my question and only then do you get to change the situation and make something else. I'm not reading your post until you respond to my question.

You keep dodging like a fucking pussy and it's starting to get on my fucking nerves. Stop acting like a cuck face my questions like a gentleman, for fuck's sake.
>>
>>38213840
>I think it's in general better to fuck yourself over than to have someone else fuck you over. Then at least it's your choice.

So you'd rather throw your money away than risk losing money on a bet or a project which could make you richer if it worked?

It's a stupid choice. It's so damn easy, look:

A: has some chances of success
B: has zero chance of sucess

You'd have to be a fucking idiot not to see which is better.
>>
We're back on with the natural advantages debate again, I see
>>
>>38213845
Okay then obviously soldier A is better off. I didn't answer it because I assume it's obvious.

>>38213863
You only look at it in terms of money and achievements. But what about self-respect? And don't go off the handle about how I hate yourself. Yeah I do hate myself. But at least I know I am not agreeing that it's acceptable for inferiors to have more difficult lives.

If I agreed to it, that would mean they have broken me.
>>
>>38213907

HELL TO THE YEAH.

It's part of Dan's therapy. It's long and painful. LIKE MY DICK
>>
>>38213911
>Okay then obviously soldier A is better off. I didn't answer it because I assume it's obvious.

It's so obvious you can't see that it's the same goddam thing in your life, and suddenly it's no longer that obvious. Glad you can actually see that A makes a better choice.

>You only look at it in terms of money and achievements.

No, homeboy, I simplify this shit so you get the fucking principle of it. It makes no difference what topics you want to put in.

>But what about self-respect?

Not giving you any chances is no self-respect.

>But at least I know I am not agreeing that it's acceptable for inferiors to have more difficult lives.

You don't seem to realise how nothing is your disagreement. It's like facing a tsunami and telling it, "I don't agree that water wets people, it's unfair."

Are you 5?

>If I agreed to it, that would mean they have broken me.

Listen up, punk, you broke yourself. You put a dick in your life and think others did or didn't do things to you. It doesn't matter. They hurt you, you developed defenses against that, and now you keep those defenses and they put a dick in your enjoyment of life, because you live with armor on. You can't live like that. That's possibly why you cling to your stupid beliefs: they make it so that keeping the armor on looks justified.

Dan, if you aren't happy right now, and aren't doing anything to get happier, they have broken you, they have won. They put a dick in you and you refuse to remove it.

That's what it is if you don't wake up.
>>
>>38213917
If your dick is long and painful you should probably see a doctor. Sounds like priapism.
>>
>>38213978
>If your dick is long and painful

To others.
>>
>>38213977
Okay, first all what's with the "put dick into" phrase that you've been using so much lately? Just curious.

>It's like facing a tsunami and telling it, "I don't agree that water wets people, it's unfair."
There is a difference here. Tsunami vs how people treat you. One can be changed, once can not.

>Dan, if you aren't happy right now, and aren't doing anything to get happier, they have broken you, they have won.
They would win if I joined their ranks. It would be like accepting a bribe in exchange for your silence.
>>
Today in therapy I discussed the job that I interviewed for. My therapist had serious reservations as to whether I ought to take it at all. In fact, he suggested that there was a pretty good chance of me getting stabbed. It'd involve socially deprived areas providing support to non-natives. In a similar area only last year a woman in a comparable role was stabbed to death, shortly before she retired.

What I found interesting is that when I said the money was good he changed his tune considerably. It's as though mortal threat is suddenly acceptable if I make a little more money. Sounds like nonsense to me. Anyway, I haven't made my mind up about what to do yet.

Any hot opinions on this topic?
>>
>>38214034
>Okay, first all what's with the "put dick into" phrase that you've been using so much lately? Just curious.

I came up with it and I'm fond of it. I think it makes an awesome expression. I think I'm going to introduce this to the world in French as well. It needs to exist.

>There is a difference here. Tsunami vs how people treat you. One can be changed, once can not.

OH WAIT, you actully think that telling people about your complaint will make them change? Really now? When did this work last time?

>They would win if I joined their ranks.

There are other options from being isolated and joing them, you know.

>It would be like accepting a bribe in exchange for your silence.

As opposed to what you're doing? Which is what? Whining online about and not trying things offline?

Remember, as long as you're unhappy, they've won, if you really want to see it all as a fight (which I don't).
>>

It all depends on how controllable you can be under duress without a drink.
>>
>>38214090
>Really now? When did this work last time?
It won't. Point is, they could change, but they won't. That is their decision.

>There are other options from being isolated and joing them, you know.
Don't think so.

>Remember, as long as you're unhappy, they've won, if you really want to see it all as a fight (which I don't).

INTERMISSION

For some reason, YouTube thinks I should watch more Henry Rollins.

Truth be told, I always felt a weird kind of familiarity about Henry, and it all made sense when I learned about his abusive past, with his parents and other people.

He is an absolute mess and has been single for decades now, and can't stand women. His reasons are mostly excuses. But I like him. I wish he'd get therapy.

I'll be posting videos. This one is dedicated to Dan.

Man I had no idea this guy was a stand up comedian. I only saw him in a couple movies where he would usually be playing nazi/villain or something similar. Always though he's cool.
>>
>>38214140
>It won't. Point is, they could change, but they won't. That is their decision.

Why would they? Dan! You act like a fucking asshole to them! I've seen you in action, you motherfucker. You're hyper aggressive and you feel threatened by anything. It's not all their fault, you douche.

Besides, their decision is about themselves. You aren't persecuted. If you think you are, I demand to know some situations where that happens.

>My happiness has nothing to do with it. It really doesn't.

It has everything to do with it. Just like pain, unhappiness is a signal that things aren't as they should be.
>>
>>38214160

By yourself.

>>38214221

I'm ready. No fear.

>>38214228

Henry did a lot of different things. But his stand up comedy is the best in my opinion. I don't like him as a vocalist. He's a decent actor and I always enjoy seeing him in movies, but his comedy is usually gold. He's brilliant and touches upon genius sometimes. That said, he always gives me a bad vibes, because I know he isn't doing what he could do to actually get better. He prefers to brood like a tragic artist and that makes me fucking sad. Henry depresses the fuck out of me. Don't be Henry. Don't end up living alone and doing nothing but touring.

Just their existence is bad for me. Because they are better in many things, so they will get the benefits for being better.

>It has everything to do with it. Just like pain, unhappiness is a signal that things aren't as they should be.
Not what I meant. They win if they treat you like and also if you forgive them and think that it's okay that you are being treated like shit. That's when they win.

>You're saying it depends how well I'm able to stay in control? I'm not sure that helped the woman who had an entire career of experience behind her.

I'd imagine you're much more likely to get stabbed if you turn into someone else with the wrong crowd. Verbal jousting doesn't do shit against knives.
>>
>>38214413
Well if I'm being totally honest. I believed Charlie what she said. And what she is, she's an attractive female. Everything bad in the world basically. Living on easy mode. I don't see how I could anything but hate her.

See, you're being a piece of shit right now. You judge someone you don't know based on something a fucking child would use to judge someone. You haven't even seen her. You don't even know, and you act like having good looks makes a huge difference, are you fucking retarded?

Here's Henry being fucked about women. He reminds me of Dan in many ways.

Henry has excuses, but his main problem isn't what he says. I think he's unable to be in a loving relationship, but not for the reasons he states.

I'm back. I'm glad you read the threads to catch up, I usually end up missing you as you go to sleep, so it is nice to know that those posts were not for naught. I know I am a bit abnormal, but I consider that because I am simply different from the rest of society.

>>
>>38214701
>could you tell me so.e of the things they asked you in the beginning?

Mine didn't get a chance to ask much. They'll ask how you are, why you came, etc.

My advice is to put in the open anything that worries you. If you're worried about what they'll ask, open with that: "I'm concerned about what you will ask me." Doing so is liberating and it also establishes trust, and you'll feel better being able to just let things out.

My opening was, "I come to you without any hope and very little trust."

That way the stage was fucking set.

>but young women are valued more in society. Easy as that.

Go to the end of that reasoning, Dan. Go to it. Tell me what you find.

>Positive feedback => mode confidence.

So you think being an attractive woman means getting positive feedback? Kind people will generally not give positive feedback on women's looks, because it always feels wrong, and other people will make sexual inuendos or try to hit on them; when this happens every time, it's not positive feedback and it doesn't feel nice at all. Also, other women fucking hate you if you look great. It's like you've never been around women, Dan.

> People like attractive people, want to be around them, so better social skills.

You're wrong. Most women will not like when another woman outshines them and make them look uglier by comparison. Have you EVER been around women socially?

It's like you're straight from the homo jungle.
>>
>>38214815
The thing that I don't get is that Dan is upset about his life situation and you are saying not to lie down and complain. With me you want me to look at the tsunami and say "it's a tsunami", which doesn't change the fact that damage will be done. I don't see the benefit Nick.

That's what YOU would expect. Reality varies widely, to the point where some women intentionally make themselves uglier, something you can't even imagine.

I personally know women who reduced their breasts, for instance. Get this? I know a woman who had amazing breasts, all natural, and she decided to make them smaller, much smaller. That must be like Chad wanting to be a shorter man to you, dunnit.

Here is a song I loved back in 2003. I was studying Hemingway. I realise now I was so alone it looks like sheer torture from my current understanding of life.

I recently discovered that "hunting rabbits" is a Poker term. It means seeing what cards would have come had the round continued. In other words, looking into what would have happened had things been different.

I don't know of Matthew Good chose it on purpose or what, but that makes it one of the most painful titles I've ever known.

I still love this song.

That's my question to you. I don't personally think they're more valued, so I'm not going to defend your position for yourself. Go ahead!

>And vast majority of women try to make themselves look better. So it's obvious which is the real win here.

For one, many women who try, fail. I can't keep up with the women who make themselves look worse by trying to look younger (younger =/= better in most cases).

The real win is neither you nor these women.

Back pain wasn't the only reason. That woman was an elite sports woman, she had no back problems.

>>38215243

I thought we were talking about how attractive women had it easier? How can you be this inconsistent without noticing? It's like you're much worse than the whores and sluts you despise when they're at that time of the month, which is like every fucking night with you, my sweet, sweet slag.

To have attractive children, you need to be with someone, so you just simplified your shit to the extreme. Not everyone wants to have kids, and not everyone can. It's like your core beliefs aren't even thought through. They're just excuses to be lazy and a faggot.

If you are valuable then people will treat you better. If you have no value for them and are expendable (like inferior males) then they have no reason to treat you well.

Did you know not everyone is a soulless sack of shit like you imagine? Not everyone treats others the you way you treat people. There are lots of very nice and kind people out there. They even seek to serve and help others, as it is their greatest joy in life.

>Being attractive is generally seen as a virtue.

Virtues are done, not had.

Funny how you change the rules when you like. That's like a woman saying, "Being tall doesn't equate attractiveness." Yeah, not all men like big tits, but not all women like tall dudes. You keep having double standards.

All women I know make themselves less attractive than they could be because they don't want to attract attention too much. They keep the really hot stuff for their boyfriends or husbands.

That's a lovely sentiment, Nick. My impulse is to angrily react generally when people instantly pitch "Third Way" advice at me, but, for whatever reason, I've found you almost entirely sincere in these threads. Much more thoughtfulness and effort than can be expected here, or that I understand without filling in the underlying motive; this digression has strayed a little far.

It's not practical for me to change at at this point, the bridges have been burned and I've been beaten down into what barely resembles a human.
My life is locked in to that duality or it's going to be destitute, struggling, without purpose and alone instead of merely impotently miserable.

>>38215363
Very possibly a stylistic choice that refers to the term, it would make a lot of sense.
To briefly continue on this tangent, rabbit hunting is usually frowned upon (if not against house rules) because it wastes time purposelessly, introduces possibilities for irregularities and I personally find it counterproductive because if you're the kind of person who cares about an outcome that will never come to be, the answer is liable to fuck with you (and you likely don't understand poker well.)

That's just your pressing issue: you never feel like you're worth the time of day. Fuck that, put a dick in it. I want you to stop assuming you matter less than anyone else. It isn't true. I want you to feel valued and important, because you are. Resist the urge to devalue yourself.

As to your second bit, I do believe that a good relationship could help a lot with your problems, provided you find the right person. Your ex should have been more understanding and tried. It's too bad, but others will be more helpful, I am sure.

You can have someone else, yes. It's not like you're in love with someone you could have, so don't fret.

Simply put, I was in school and the other kids apparently found out about my ancestral routes. I fought against them, got suspended a few times, and eventually my mother said that it was true that I am a bastard who was a product of incest. She met my father at a family reunion party with his father, her first cousin. Her sister was dating my father's father and set her up with my father, they canceled, my mother and father still went. He was married at the time, though promised to get a divorce he never did, so she cheated on him with about 100+ guys until she got pregnant with me (DNA tested). She had the abortions before because she didn't want a child with my father when he was still married, but got sick of throwing up and the pain of the entire procedure, so she had me. She said my father could care less about the baby shower, he was with his wife.

I feel my mother did what she did, but everyone else has mothers like this behind closed doors. When I was in it, I remember Malcolm and the Middle being the closest I had to reality. She was rather nice with everyone else, she got a lot of friends she would go out to the bar and get drunk with.

It annihilates your argument; the proportion of the population has literally NOTHING to do with it. Now you're resorting back to your old stupid ass fucking fallacies that don't make any fucking goddam sense. You mentally ill motherfuckers act like logic and reason can be fucked with as you like.

I repeat, cunt, being valuable does NOT entail that you will be treated well. Slaves were valuable, sex slaves today are valuable. Employees are valuable. Does that ensure they're treated well? Of course not. Your argument is weak and your defense is worse. Stop being a fucking cunt.

>If you say so.

Yes, trust me, I know humans and I can actually understand them. Try it some day.

>That's your definition.

Is it now? "conformity of one's life and conduct to moral and ethical principles; uprightness; rectitude." Virtue always has to do with what you do with regards to principles. It's not something you have. Good looks aren't a virtue.

>Actually I would bet anything you want that in general there are more men who like women with small breasts than there are women who like short men.

That's neither here nor there, that's like me saying "I am sure there are more women who don't like men who name their testicles than there are women who like man who consider their dick a pet." It's a complete non sequitur.

What about the population of penguins who like SM as compared to the retroactive effects of the invention of monotheism on the Saturday night sex sessions of obese Americans in Wisconsin?

Oh dear, it seems my destiny to change names. That does make sense though, my parents would say that you would be a social reject without such a coat. I remember wanting to wear sweatpants as they were easier to put on than jeans and being told I couldn't because "that is what fat people wear".

My family has always been the one to be upset about my looks. I am rather apathetic personally. My father still gets upset if he sees me walk out with a shirt filled with stains and finds out I didn't take a bath in the last week. I wouldn't say that was abuse.

No, Coats, most mothers aren't like the one you had. Few are like yours, and they're despicable people who hurt the innocent.

No I was not aware Nick. Truthfully that felt like the most realistic mother out there to conflict with all the other mothers on television that made brownies. I wish I could remember that show more, it has been years since I last saw it, but it was the best example I had when I was younger.

She didn't like being on the pill, it was too much of a hassle. Plus she wanted to have a family and hoped when she got pregnant that he would get a divorce and settle down with a kid.

Oh, she has a lot of resentment to her father. I know when we lived with them for a few months when I was three that he aimed a gun at her head with me behind her apparently. They also threw us in a homeless shelter after having convinced us to move out there due to it being better than being around my father, who they always hated for being married.

She talked a lot about him never giving her any attention or affection, he would just go to his room and ignore her. He would buy things for her, but no affection, which she always considered wrong. He cheated on his wife with my grandmother and never considered her his kid, going so far as to keeping the last name of the mother's ex. Truthfully I do not know much more, she never was the most communicative about it.

You did all you could to derail my questions at every turn, instead of answering. Every time I destroy your ridiculous arguments, you conclude that it's not worth continuing because it's "just arguing". Are you retarded? Nothing wrong with arguing, even when you realise you're wrong.

What brought us here is you having retarded beliefs that don't happen in real life and using them as an excuse to stay a whiny faggot who doesn't try anything and prefers to blame and hate everyone else.

Indeed, he doesn't continue too long about it, he is just more of "You smell again. You need to stop doing this, you are better than that and everyone will start picking on you if you keep it up. Better for me to tell you than for you to find out behind someone's back.". He usually will let in another round of it or so, smelling me and saying how bad it is, but it doesn't have much anger behind it at all. As I said, Nick hasn't convinced me my father is abusive.

>Friends
Indeed, I would say friends don't abuse other friends. If they physically touched you, they weren't friends. Of course I am not very good advice, I don't know social etiquette at all. Personally I feel friends respect each other, even when it is rougher there is always an element that you can tell they are joking. If there was doubt, it needed to be communicated and they should have been concerned for your benefit, stopping what they were doing to make you happier.

You didn't destroy the main point. You can't.

I know right... That link was a trip to me as well when I found it.

>how rough can kids be without it being classified as bullying or abuse?

Any time you feel bad about it is bullying. It's not about how much pain, it's whether you feel like your rights as a person are violated.

It's likely that every kid attack reminded you of other attacks, thus making things ten times worse.

Reminds me of a story from a workmate. We taught the same classes, and there was this kid, a typical teenage slacker, son of a very wealthy father. Both parents seem completely fucked (they'd go on holidays, separately, while throwing the kids like hot potatoes to each other, ended up going on holidays while the kids were homeless). One day, my workmate had the bright idea of bumping that teenager on the head with a dictionary. The kid, who normally is apathetic as fuck, stared at him with such rage that he thought he was going to be attacked. That's when he understood that the kid was most likely beaten by his father. And he was.
>>
>>38215847
>I wonder where the "almost" comes from. I'd like to clear it up if possible.
This wasn't intended as a slight against you, I'm sorry if it came off that way. I think you're a human, who for his own reasons tries to help people struggling in ways similar to how you have, but a human just the same. Specifically, I had in mind the handful (3<x<6) times I've seen you get rather antagonistic to anons (myself included one of the times) who you seemed to associate with your own spook "Buffalo Bill."
I appreciate what you do, despite that.
>What would it be?
I've thought about it and I really don't know, except to speculate the purpose as some sort of profiling/data-mining/psych experiment. As I alluded to, I don't think that's necessarily likely. I think you get things out of this as well as the other posters. "Almost" serves as a trivial qualifier that I attach to most opinions to distance myself from disapproval.
> Yes. This may be true of doing it in normal life as well.
Agreed, which is why I think I'm on board with your song-title etymology. As I'm so impotent IRL, I spend a large percentage of my time (when not poker-ing) maladaptive daydreaming.
>You're very pessimistic about yourself, but I am certain it's not that dark.
I know that initially it's useful to excessively reassure headcases like me to try and ground our thoughts, but it's pretty dark for an easy life. Other than the fucked up homelife, I got dealt every card in the deck and couldn't put a hand together, continuing with that basic metaphor.

Perhaps I made it sound worse than it was. See my description below and see if it sounds like he really got upset.

The reason as far as I am aware is because other people will see you as a reject if you don't. You will be an embarrassment to be around because he should be taking better care of you. You will be laughed at when your back is turned, thus made into more of a reject which in turn makes you ousted from society. It is to look presentable and thus to have others want to be around you as opposed to being unable to bear you because you smell horrible.

I don't think you need a medfag to say this, but you really should quit.

If you could only know how fucking insane your statement is, you'd realise how far you've come. Trust me: any normal person out there could barely believe you weren't trolling. To everyone, Malcolm's mother is too cartoony to be real, but that's why she's funny: no real mother is like that, or she'd be mentally insane and then it would no longer be funny. It'd be fucking frightening.

The mothers who made brownies are how real mothers are, Coats. I know it hurts. I used to watch series and think, "I wish real life was like that." But then, real life IS like that: caring mothers who make cookies for their kids and love them. You and I lived in a TV in more ways than one.

>Plus she wanted to have a family and hoped when she got pregnant that he would get a divorce and settle down with a kid.

What a manipulative cunt. Literally risking babies' lives to force a man to marry her. It's exactly the kind of insane reasoning that my own mother would have. Some days I want to become the Hitler of the mentally ill motherfuckers of this planet. Gather them in camps and fucking destroy them before they destroy children. I mad.

You're in way deeper problems than depression. You've become the darkness, my friend.

Let's put a dick in this right now. My goal here isn't to convince you of something that isn't true, but to find out what is true. When you told me about how your father Force-choked you against a wall to intimidate you, that was abusive. Whether he was abusive the rest of the time remains to be seen, but that particular act was fucked up and the fact that he could do it means he can be abusive.

You were wrong about "valuable means good treatment," I put a dick in that, hard, and you had nothing to fall back on. If you stopped pussying out like a cunt, we could get to the end of things and force you to realise you're being a tard.

Gotcha. Speaking from experience I'd give it a try anon. It's not all that bad, at the very least you'll learn something new about yourself. Start with your family and share something small about yourself, see how you feel, and go from there. It's your choice in the end, but a small start won't hurt a try.
What makes you nervous, specifically? For me it's the anxiety and paranoia and because of that I often isolate myself and cut contact from others if I feel I've reveled too much. (Which looking back is never the case)

My humanity may be the best I have to offer here. But yeah, I am human.

> I've seen you get rather antagonistic to anons (myself included one of the times) who you seemed to associate with your own spook "Buffalo Bill."

I don't remember the two being done together. I do confront some anons, usually either trolls or regulars that have a long history with me (Dan, Facet, Meta). I believe in not restraining one's natural reactions provided they're in tune with how you feel and how you feel is in tune with justice and righteousness.

>except to speculate the purpose as some sort of profiling/data-mining/psych experiment.

It was never the main goal, more like a side quest. It also works both ways: understanding you guys help me understand others, like "Bill", but understanding Bill also gives me insights in understanding people here. It's all useful towards my future career as well.

>I think you get things out of this as well as the other posters.

Yes, I love helping people. It's a great source of happiness for me. And I am sure people here prefer to be helped by someone who likes it and does it for free than someone who's paid to do it.

No, it's pretty bad no matter how you put it.

You're correct about your reasons but oddly practical. Does it never occur to you that you don't deserve to wear shit-stained clothes? Do you not think, "I'm a cool dude, I deserve cool fucking clothes." No?

Do you not know that being freshly showered or bathed makes you feel good for the day? (I was never taught that, for instance; in my family, were raised to wash once a week since very early on, and reprimanded for washing more often; I wasn't informed about deodorant as I became a teenager; my mother never shaved her armpits because "It sucks up the sweat," and my father never used deodorant unless he went to work, and plenty of other disgusting things.

It's not just about what others think. But what they'll think is that you don't care for yourself, and that will scare people, because it is frightening. It means something is absolutely fucking wrong with you, and it is. A man who comes out with a stained shirt and no shower in a week may very well rape babies for fun. That's how far gone you'd look to others.

But you are not curing the stress with cigs, your brain simply associated the stress relief that they gave you when you were in abstinence with the positive sensation you had after (not being stressed). So you get the craving even when there is other factors that are stressing you.

Boring, because you don't see small talk for what it is. (Small talk is a way to communicate with you in a completely safe environment, with safe topics; nobody will truly argue whether chocolate or vanilla is the best ice cream flavor; it's just to talk with you, because establishing communication is more important than the topic, feel flattered, not bored.)

Unpleasant, because you fear people more than you realise. So the whole experience cannot be pleasant.

>am i pulling a coatsy considering this to be normal?

Pulling a coatsy, that's gold.

I did the piggy back thing to my friend back then, but he didn't hate it.

What matters is how you felt because of their actions, not so much their actions, for now.

Maybe it reminded you of being overpowered somehow, which may connect to other things. Sometimes it's stupid shit. For instance, I have the most ridiculous form of PTSD (among a long list of issues), in which... tickles. I got tickles PTSD, that's right. My father used to tickle use way past the point of discomfort, where it feels like torture (and it's an actual form of torture, the Chinese used it to punish nobles because it didn't leave marks). Because of that, when my fiancee tried to have a tickle battle with me, I had to tell her that when I said stop, she absolutely had to stop or I wouldn't know what I would do to get out of that situation, but that I was afraid to hurt her. She was shocked and thought I was overreacting. It seemed normal to me. In fact, I had no idea how she (and normal people) could tolerate tickles this well, when I couldn't. And it's true, if I felt overpowered, it would trigger this intense fear in me and the absolute rage to regain control, at which point I could fucking knock teeth off and bite into eyeballs.

Anothing thing I cannot stand is being forced underwater. Same violent reaction from me against whoever would try.

First, I wanted to see if you were even familiar with thinking about that or not. It seems you weren't, since the question surprised you. This means you never really spent time planning out what you wanted out of a woman, which means you never tried all that much, or tried without much hope.

Not a bad list, though very general, but not bad at all. Funny thing is, when you met someone who had all these traits, you shat on her like a motherfucker. I'm pretty sure that, offline, you disgust and hatred of women shows like a thousand suns and you don't even realise it.

Hey, Nick. I'm a seriously mentally fucked up guy. I have been experiencing a lot of anxiety and just overall low self-worth for the past year and a bit. And when I say low self-worth, I really mean it. When I go to pay for my groceries or what not I always kinda drop the money on the cashier's hand, so I don't touch them since I think I'm too disgusting of a creature and not worthy of touching other people since they'll won't like me. At work, I struggle with keeping eye contact with co-workers and clients. I and talking to people since I believe that I am only just ruining their day with my face and existence. It's really serious, and it has only gotten worse. I guess due to me being 18 it's not as bad as being 30 and being like this, but I can't see things getting any better. I really want to get the motivation I had back when I was younger. The way I would always be happy to wake up and be ok with talking to people. In fact, I was known as a confident guy but due to recent events my self-esteem as been smashed to the ground and then some.

Have you ever dealt with someone like me? Is there any hope? If so I really can't see it.

Can't commit suicide because I'm a christfag and believe in hell. Also, there's a part of me that still believes there's hope, but that mainly comes from me being 18 and still thinking I have time to recover.

in most situations of violence i just wanted to give up for them to end as quickly as possible. i didnt see a need to fight for my self since that would only prolong the suffering. granted i've realized many years later that if i'd actually tried to stop it i would most likely have been treated better in the long run.
for the most part i could just not understand why people would be violent and unpleasant. i would never want to hurt anyone, not be hurt by anyone. it was beyond me why someone wanted to hurt me (even though in most cases i think the intention was not to actually hurt me).

Don't worry about the test. It's Kinsey. 0 to 6, 0 being total heterosexual, like me, to 6, absolute dick-worshipping faggot. It will help to know where you stand on the scale. Anywhere in between 0 and 6 will explain why you aren't sure.

>For fuck's sake. You think being tall and attractive does anything to become rich?
It does more often than not go hand in hand.

Becoming rich? Either get born into a rich family. So that your parents give you money and due to them having money they likely have connections that make you succesful and rich also.

Or working hard on yourself and getting extremely luck at the same time.

I've read this before, probably on a thread I had left (I read everything in every thread; after I left, I read from my bed, on my phone, until I fall asleep with the lights on; and in the morning I finish reading the whole thing.)

>Have you ever dealt with someone like me?

Yes, me.

>Is there any hope?

Yes, a whole lot.

Don't worry, you're in good hands. It is an astoundingly low self-esteem, but the great news is you are aware. That's more than many people, who'd imagine it's normal to feel this low.

When I was a teenager, I had concluded I was so ugly that to approach a girl would be an insult to her and so I decided never to approach a girl. I held on to that for years and years. The sad truth was that I wasn't ugly at all. I was actually a pretty handsome motherfucker, but had homemade hair, which sucked and looked horrible.

I'll predict that you don't feel like your parents know who you really are. Correct?

>Oh I'm pretty sure it shows. I fucking hope it does.

Why would it? I know for a fact that even if a model, who also had the brains to be a genius, and a loving heart, came to you, you'd reject her and you'd be aggressive to her. You'd sabotage the whole situation on your own.

Why would you fucking hope to sabotage that?

>Honestly though, I made that list up.

That's what you were supposed to do. What the hell are you thinking to feel like you cheated or did something that wasn't expected?

> I know what I'm supposed to say when asked questions like this.

Yeah, you're supposed to tell the truth, you fucking moron. Don't fuck with me, faggot, or I will turn into a dragon and destroy you.

> The honest answer would be I have no fucking idea. Well except the last one. That is honest.

Then why can't you be honest you motherfucking asshole? Why waste both of our times? We could both be licking each other's hairy anuses while hardbass pulses in the background, but no, you have to waste our homo time with being a cunt.

>Any normal person out there could barely believe you weren't trolling
Been a problem on the internet, people can't believe I struggle with the things I struggle with, they can't understand me. I really need to see that show, I wonder how many memories it would bring back of my mother.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GT1cJdDn-A
You know what, it probably is best to repress these. Lois looks calm to me and now I remember the time she destroyed any pictures of my father, taking scissors and going methodically through all our photo albums. She was even thorough enough to crush the negatives.

I wonder if I should be honored to star in a comedy series or feel ripped off that I have yet to see any profits or even a home video release.

>What a manipulative cunt
You know, I never really saw it that way before. She brainwashed me to make me think it was my father's fault, that it was proof he could not commit to her. To this day I don't think I ever saw her having some fault in that.

>Does that remind you of anything, Coats?
Oh, my mother loves to remind me that what happened with her is what my father does with me. My father argues her father actually loved her and she was a spoiled brat that could never accept it. She always felt entitled to the world. She refused to work, she would sleep with guys so they would pay for her bills so she didn't have to work. She has been in plenty of relationships with guys she says she loathes, but is with simply because "she is trapped" due to them paying her bills.

It was more panic than rage. Rage would be when I destroyed a kitchen and a door.

I still have trouble believing. I want to believe it is different, but people seem to hostile out there. It seems illogical that they would be so kind, so selfless.

>You've become the darkness
Well, that makes me feel better. At least now I feel like I deserve to have depression as opposed to feeling like an entitled jerk every time I get upset.

>Means he can be abusive
I think this is perhaps the answer Nick. I believe my father meant well, but was heavily inexperienced due to having his own parent walk out on him and dealing with all these issues in a broken home. He did what he thought was best. Perhaps it wasn't the best, perhaps he made mistakes, but I feel he has atoned for them. I feel like if a camera examined everything that happened, they would find him mostly good.
>>
>>38217339
>Why would you fucking hope to sabotage that?
To protect myself from being humiliated. Such woman can get more quality males. She would just cheat on me.

>Do the exercise again, and if you don't know what you want, try to explain why you don't know.
Because I never thought about it. As far as looks go, I've been attracted to women all over the spectrum. If I liked talking to her or found something interesting about her, then I was attracted to her physically. As far as looks go, it's random.

As far as anything else. Ambition is important. If it's a boring bitch who has no real interests, doesn't want to really learn anything worthwhile just for the sake of understanding or accomplishing something then fuck her. And of course being smart is tied to this.

And the most important thing, she has to leave me room to breathe. As soon as she's trying to control me in any way or manipulate me by crying or playing on feelings, I'm fucking out. You might think this is dumb, but it's pretty fucking common. Woman asks a question, hears a honest answer, doesn't like it, starts crying, guy takes his answer back. Fuck that.
>>
>>38217215
>It does more often than not go hand in hand.

Yeah, like Bill Gates. You're retarded. Take a look at the richest people in the world and I guarantee you wouldn't fuck any of them even for a fraction of their money.

>Becoming rich? Either get born into a rich family.

Do I need to show you the BS here? BECOMING rich, not BEING rich. If you're born rich, you haven't BECOME it, for fuck's sake.

Try again you motherfucking snake. You're a sneaky cunt, mate.

Stop fucking sabotaging everything because you're too much of a fuckin pussy to do it right. You're like a faggot in a duel, pretending to drop his weapon like a fucking pansy, just so you don't have to man the fuck up. It's making me so fucking angry. In MMA, you're not allowed to look down like a fucking puss; you're the guy who looks down so he won't have to fight. You're more obnoxious than Borderline women, and that's fucking saying something.

>>38216660
Not really Nick, I don't believe I deserve cool clothes. What have I done to earn them? Nothing. I sit and complain, so I should get nothing.

My father wishes me to wash more, but he settles for once every other day. The NEET family always is in there, cleaning their kids or themselves, so it is hard to get access myself in the few hours I am around during the week. I don't have the luxury of an easy to access bathroom.

Well, am I that far gone Nick? I am pretty apathetic to myself quite honestly. I care about risk and benefits, but consider the maintenance to not be worth the reward of not smelling. I can't smell myself, so it isn't like it is a hassle for me, and I don't notice the stains. Thus it is not like it is an annoyance I feel.
>>
>>38217314
>Social skill is very closely tied to looks and social status of your family.

No, it's not. Again, I'm a teacher, I've worked with hundreds of kids. I can guarantee that social skills have jack to do with looks. Some of the ugliest kids have the greatest social skills, and family status doesn't count when you're between 3 and 10 and beyond, in fact.

You're such a narrow-minded cunt; it's you who scorn people for being born to modest families. It's you who looks down on people with genetics you don't like. We've found the truth now. That's why you can't dig, you'd find yourself believing in all the crap you hate others for supposedly believing, but in fact, it's you.

That's also why you can't make the list, right? You'd realise YOU want "good genetics", not others.

I honestly do not understand why are you so winded up.

But becoming rich, yeah you have to be smart, work hard and most importantly be lucky (right place, right time). A shitton of people have good ideas and work hard/smart to make them happen. But only a couple of them will become rich. These are the lucky ones.

>Yeah, like Bill Gates. You're retarded. Take a look at the richest people in the world and I guarantee you wouldn't fuck any of them even for a fraction of their money.

>>38217607
Well, it is part of his reasoning, but he also doesn't want others to look at me horribly. He is heavily concerned with social status and thus wants me to be seen as something of value.

He does try to change the situation from time to time, but the basic issue is simply that I didn't put any deodorant on or forgot to wash. He will try switching deodorants to see if they work better though.

>That's why you can't dig, you'd find yourself believing in all the crap you hate others for supposedly believing, but in fact, it's you.
You're right. I do believe in many, many things that I hate others for believing in. I don't see what's wrong with it. Only thing normies can say is "muh hypocrisy" as a magical word that doesn't ultimately mean much.

Yeah, it seems quite normal for a mother to do that. That scene looked like she was properly disciplining her children. She looked quite rational.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNxgr1tmlpY
I thought the joke was the kiss on the forehead. Real mothers are quite forceful at getting their children awake. After all, they need to get to school. I remember her pushing me out of bed and onto the floor. It was efficient, you learned to wake up before you rolled onto the floor. She had a few stages. She would pull the blankets off you, she would push you, she would get more forceful, she would push you onto the floor. How does a kiss on the forehead get a child ready for school?

I've only had a couple of fairly softball sessions so far. We're yet to dig into the true meat of the matter. The last session was about creating a space and having the others 'meet' and for me to have a chance to speak to them, things like that. It was somewhat hypnotic. It relied, rather than on something visual, on a couple of oscillating objects held in the hands. Apparently it's gentler. It was somewhat illuminating but I'd rather get right into the big stuff. The therapist tells me that there will be another few sessions before we can do that though.

It's not reasonable. It's abuse.

Believe it. People are kind, when they're healthy and sane. The best people out there love people for real.

>Well, that makes me feel better. At least now I feel like I deserve to have depression as opposed to feeling like an entitled jerk every time I get upset.

Forgot to mention: I read your reddit post, Pete.

My mother lost her temper more than that. I don't think she was as calm and calculating, that was a big difference.

I agree, she conned him into having a kid she didn't even want to have. No wonder she would abuse me, she didn't even want me. I was just a power play to her, a rejected power play she was just too tired to get rid of.

>A Narc
The irony here is that my mother loved to accuse my father of being a narc. She would say his care wasn't real, that it was just a power play to show that he was a better parent. I remember fearing my father manipulating me because my mother would tell me that is all he would do.

>Correct?
Yep, there's a big cultural divide between us and a lot of times it's hard to explain to them how I truly feel since they won't understand. Like this one time, I was going to an acting audition to get into some acting club. I remember telling my dad "I feel kinda nervous." He looked at me weird and said: "why?" He really couldn't understand. That along with other things but I can never truly really see my parents as a friend but rather as an authority figure. I've heard some say "maybe you can start being his friend now." But that's impossible now. I'm just too far gone and even get awkward talking to my own parents like I do people.

Also, about not talking to girls because you thought you were so ugly that you thought that it would be an insult. Well, I have that too. It's why I don't look people in the eye for long. It's because I think I might gross them out and if I look away before they can, then my feelings won't get hurt.
>>
>>38217504
>Because I never thought about it.

Ask yourself why not. (I take this exercise from my own therapist; I realised I had never thought about what I wanted in a woman, because I never thought I could be a chooser.)

> but it's pretty fucking common. Woman asks a question, hears a honest answer, doesn't like it, starts crying, guy takes his answer back. Fuck that.

Only common in dysfunctional people. I've been with two Borderline women, BPD and more in some cases, and even they never pulled the crying thing. Most men wouldn't put up with retarded shit like that. Again, you're thinking of women as if they were little kids. Some of the craziest women out there don't cry to get their way. For once, you're underestimating how far a woman will go to get what she wants.
>>
>>38217872
>It's abuse
How so?

>Believe it
I just don't understand how. Most people seem to be for their own self interest. I remember Dan talking about being bullied. Why wouldn't the other kids speak up? Their own self interest.

>Survivor with scars
I don't think I got any scars Nick. If so, I sure don't see them. I believe I would have been an alien to society regardless. Did it help that my father would call up the school when they refused to let me back in and said he would dress up like a ninja and attack them? Not really. But I was an outcast all the same Nick, regardless of my parents. They just didn't help the situation.

>>38217877
York, he also makes it a point to talk to the people I work with and demand they give me more work. He wants me to be the guy they all come to, the one that is vital to the company's survival. Does that sound like not caring?

Because I am not good enough to really get a choice here. Hell if you express any choice, you get told to lower your standards. If I was a guy who could think about shit like this, I would have been like that already. I would have grown up like a normal human being experiencing the normal milestones in intimacy. As far as love life goes I'm the equivalent of the 25 year old who can not read. Would you ask a 25 year old illiterate to think about his 5 favorite books?

>Some of the craziest women out there don't cry to get their way.
She's not crying to get her way. She's crying because she is really hurt. She really doesn't like what she is hearing, so she starts to cry. So I guess an important thing would be for her not to be a delicate little flower like many bitches pretend to be and act like.

It isn't the perfect example, mainly because it was about three brothers and I was an only child. But Lois is as close to my mother as I have seen. The only one who sees her kids doing something wrong and makes a point to stop them from ever doing it again.

I went on google and searched for "schizoid personality disorder test" and did the tests at the top of the search results. Hope the image works fine.

Well, I am waiting for a new environment. We plan to eventually get a family house away from the NEETs, a new life. Of course, my grandmother might die in the meantime, which means my father can get the house and kick the NEETs out. Either way, my life will get better, I just need to grit my teeth for now.

>>38218147
It isn't so bad York. A person like Lois will eventually get so mad she will throw you out of the house. If I remember correctly that is what happened with the oldest brother.
>>
>>38217607

My mother once taunted me on something I resented immensely, namely, that I was eating "her food", even though she made no money to buy it, and despite the fact that I was doing all I could do compensate for my presence (in fact, I even paid a rent, and they'd stolen grant money from me before, and unfairly asked to get a part of my uni money every year as well). I more than paid for my presence, even in tax cuts alone.

So when she pointed at my food saying it was hers. I told her to take it and I threw the plate against the fridge. Doing this was like showing your ass to the Pope in 1350. I threw my glass, another glass, then I threw my fucking chair, then another. The table had a grill on it with loads of food in bowls. I flipped the entire dinner table over. My mother freaked out and ran to me to pummel me on the chest with her weak fists (an odd reaction when I think of it), telling me to leave "her" house.

My brother came downstairs to see what the mess was about, and he was pushed along with me into this shoe antechamber where our mother locked us up. I was enraged by being locked up. The door had a wooden frame but a plastic center, like a window pane, but plastic. I decided to run through it, arm first. The first time it sustained my charge, but the second time, I flew right through it. Leg got caught in the frame and I fell brutally on the floor, tearig my shoulder in the process, from the charge or the fall, I'm not sure. I lay there among plastic shards of various sizes. I stayed down, not wanting this thing to have happened for real.

My only regret now is that back then I felt about about things and apologised. I was right, I should have destroyed her along with her kitchen.
>>
>>38217634
>I honestly do not understand why are you so winded up.

You never do. Imagine some motherfucker stuck down a well complaining about how he'll die alone down there. I'm on top of the well, and there's a ladder. I tell the motherfucker to use the ladder. He won't because muh genetics and muh cock and much tallness and muh evil women, while I'm up, surrounded by nice women and nice people.

You're the motherfucker. I get upset because it infuriates me to see that you could do great and be happy but force yourself to stay a motherfucker in a well. I would slap your shit forever until you snap out of your hole.

also im glad Nick posted this
> Important things seem like details to you.
because i would've have understood it. your reasoning is so backwards to me.
you've got plenty of issues in several different ways. but you appreciate getting more work so you can sorta make a living without having to try to improve.

So I find myself frequently bombarded with negative thoughts relating to virginity and lack of success with women. I'm trying to turn my life around but these thoughts are so debilitating and intrusive that I find myself unable to function as a normal productive person. I want to work on my programming skills, build a portfolio and hopefully get a job as a developer, but I've been unable to write a single line of code for a month now thanks to my brain just fucking my shit up with self-doubt.

In order to blank out my negative thoughts I essentially waste a bunch of time doing useless unproductive things just to keep my mind pre-occupied. I need a better solution though, probably a drug based solution because my mind is too strong of an adversary to combat without an armada of psychoactive substances backing me.

Can anyone suggest some drugs? I'm already on Wellbutrin 300mg and Citalopram 20mg. I could try upping the dose on Citalopram; the side effects of killing sex drive could actually be beneficial here. I'm also giving Kratom a try for the first time ever 4mg. Not sure how thats gonna go, but I'm feeling pretty fucking dialed atm.

Can anyone suggest anything? I was thinking of perhaps going deep on a mushroom trip and trying to hit ego-death or whatever. I've never done hallucinogens before and even something as mundane as weed can kinda fuck with me and make me feel anxious. On top of that I might have bipolar type 1 (I was diagnosed under rather extreme conditions: psychotic episode that left my involuntarily committed in Bellevue Hospital NYC (I'm from Vancouver), the doctors had a tough time coming up with a diagnosis), but the fact that I've gone 4 years without taking any sort of mood stabilizer and haven't gone insane sheds a lot of doubt.

Still psychedelics pose a risk, but at this point in time I've written my life off (I forfeit it to the dice rolls of God or something) so I'm willing to take a chance, provided the odds make sense.

Yeah they're lying. The just world fallacy. Trying to make themselves work better. Many people work hard, only some get rich so obviously luck is the most important part.

Top 15 rich men don't change the fact that attractive people are on average more succesful in life.

I don't know why but filling these tests is kinda fun even if the answer aren't exactly good news.
>>
>>38218424
I actually do believe that the super rich work immensely hard. They have every advantage and it puts them into an entirely different world to you and me. However, bear in mind that these people are pure, ruthless sociopaths. They don't care who they tread on. Now imagine there's a room full on them. They have to fight and scheme and work to get to the top of the pile because if they slack then someone else will rise up to stab them in the back and take the throne. There are no off days in a world of sharks. Of course they wouldn't be there at all were they not born into privilege.
>>
>>38218252
then i'd break on the street instead.
though being grown up im thinking i would be in a better place today if i have had to fight for myself more. so maybe getting thrown out wouldve been good.

>>38218281
that story actually made me angry. i was hoping you'd cause more damage. i feel like you deserved to destroy even more.
took me back to the old parent hate threads on /b/.

>>38218379
wearing deodorant makes you seem more hygienic to other people. but it's just as dysfunctional if the only reason you wear it is because someone happened to place it in your hand and tell you to put it on that morning.
the healthy thing to do would be to make sure you would want to put it on without someone telling you.
>>
>>38218498
This. I have respect for the rich because they need to play a dog eat dog every day to remain in power. I wish I could get that power to perhaps eat some other dogs, but I probably would be eaten anyway. I lack the skills to get in power, nevertheless stay there.

>>38218533
I was lucky to have a father that didn't want me on the streets.

Perhaps York, but I don't see a motivational reason. My father probably didn't want to waste hours of his life devoting it. As I said, he usually has to rush home because his girlfriend is making his food and he doesn't want it to get cold.
>>
>>38217672
>You're right. I do believe in many, many things that I hate others for believing in. I don't see what's wrong with it.

It means you don't really hate others, you hate yourself.

>>38218498
i dont see the point in being rich anymore. you basically dedicate your life to work, so basically you dont have a life. sure you can have a nice view from your office and a sweet ass house to sleep in at night before you head out to work again.

Me and her have been have been texting about it for like 30 minutes now. I'm trying not to say anything incriminating if she decides to
flip it around on me.

It really sucks. Turns out that he's kinda been shitty to her for a while now. he's not abusive, he's just mean and insensitive when I'm not here. I don't know how much of this is lies and hormones.. I've been burned by girls too many times. He's the type that's been on 4chan for too long, and sorta forgets he's not on the internet.

The more she's talking to me, the more I'm pissed at my friend.

I'm not gonna fuck her, but I know i'll regret it. Whenever I cme over here it's like I'm her boyfriend or something.

There's no way to get out of this without sperging so i'm trying to find the right time to get out of there.
>>
>>38217831
>How does a kiss on the forehead get a child ready for school?

I'm too tired for this.

Coats, good mothers wake their children gently. When I was a kid, I had a watch that rang. I prepared everything myself. I prepared my bag, my breakfast. I went to school on my own. My parents didn't have to get up.

In normal families, someone takes care of the kids, makes sure they get up and get ready, and comb, etc.

I was left to my own devices like a savage. I never combed or looked in the mirror for years and years.

Can you not imagine getting a kid ready without torturing him?

It's fucking easy though. How about being nice and kind and loving?
>>
>>38218591
>waste hours of his life devoting it
im starting to lose my mind.
normal parents devote their lives on making sure their kids grow up with all the skills needed to survive on their own.
but your father doesnt want his dinner to get cold so that's cool as well i suppose.
>>
>>38218653
Some people clearly see it as worthwhile. Once you reach that threshold where your money grows exponentially then that seems a good time to just do something else. I guess they like grinding for whatever reason.

Well I'll admit I'm jealous. Wish a girl could just fall in my lap like that.

Wouldn't the proper thing be to tell her to end the relationship if she wants to get with you? Is that too autistic or something? Your friend will probably still hate you anyway then.
>>
>>38217923
>The irony here is that my mother loved to accuse my father of being a narc. She would say his care wasn't real, that it was just a power play to show that he was a better parent. I remember fearing my father manipulating me because my mother would tell me that is all he would do.

It's what narcs prefer to do. Make others do what the narc is really doing.

Kinda like Dan and his dark ideas about other people: those ideas are his, in reality. He's the eugenic cunt who wants a perfect Aryan wife and won't consider anyone other than his perfect and perfectly retarded fantasy.

But yeah, blaming others is easier.

Well, if the kid doesn't want to learn, you can't lead a horse to water. If they are going to be stubborn, the best you can do is focus on yourself and just let them sort the problems out for themselves.

In the situation where a great woman is interested in you, you hate her because she could get other men and you hate her because you think she'll cheat. Please notice that even if the perfect woman met you, you'd reject her for the same reasons.

It's like me arresting you because I think you'll rob me. It's fucking stupid.

Worrisome disconnect from life. Very Worrisome.

>>38218804
Well in a relationship with very different quality people it's much more likely for one party to cheat.

>>38218725
Approximating normality is the best I can do. I already know I'm doing a bad job. It's the best I can do. My veneer only lasts so long. I gave a great interview, albeit a little nervous. I always do, then over time people gradually become aware that something is wrong. I am wrong. That is the truth, and no amount of therapy will change it.

>>38218809
It's just not something easily related to. Perhaps it's akin to a genuine addiction. The focal point of their entire lives, and entirely for its own sake. Perhaps they take no pleasure in it, but they continue compulsively, without relent.

Good Lord, this has ended me. I'd laugh if I wasn't so exhausted and appalled.

Your parents are why you're an outcast. With good parents, you'd be a Chad now.

>Does that sound like not caring?

No, it sounds like he wants you to reflect well on him. It's just selfish.
>>
>>38218762
You know what is scary is that emotional abuse isn't an alien topic to me. I knew it existed. My mother used to use it to prove what my father was doing was emotional abuse and why she was justified to sleep with the guys she was sleeping with. She was just trying to find Mr. Right and was trapped in a situation where she couldn't support herself and me, so she had to manipulate my father to keep paying the bills while she tried finding a better provider.

I am with Dan, I am stuck with an obsession for a perfect wife that doesn't exist and thus is a retarded fantasy. I want one that doesn't touch their phone and instead devotes their life to me, to nobody else but me. I don't even like anime, but yandere summarized exactly the type of female I need. One who also won't mind being a sub and being controlled by me.

Alas, I will be heading out again sadly. I can imagine the thread will be dead or you will be asleep, so I will say my farewells now, but I do enjoy posting here and look forward to our next conversation.

Who the fuck speaks to you like that? Anyone real?
>>
>>38218885
Well as a parent your job is to make sure the kids do what you tell them. They aren't free-willed beings yet. They are expected to be trained. When your father says "Get down" you get down to avoid the armed assailant. My father recently talked to me about not touching the door of a car if power cables fall on it.

>With good parents, you'd be a Chad now
TIL I am a failed Chad. Doesn't that mean it could be reverted? Somehow I doubt my ability to learn football.

Selfish perhaps, but it is still beneficial for me.

Intrusive thoughts can be difficult to handle, but they're not impossible to handle. When you think of a pessimistic thought don't treat it as the end all be all honest to God truth. Recognize that it's a pessimistic thought and try to find the silver lining to whatever the idea is. When you look back on the pessimistic thoughts that you have when you're feeling better you may find that they're completely false or completely irrelevant. I've been told if you spend too much time worrying about things decide that a certain place and time is when you'll worry about stuff, and you'll focus on other things the rest of the time.

You also may find you think the same thoughts over and over again like a broken record player. It can be disheartening to keep thinking those things, that's why it's important to try to see things from the lighter side of things. The more you do it the more easily you will do it in the future. You may think of idea that you had previously disproven, and when you remember your refutation you may laugh at how much it bugged you before.

Things like a lack of success with women may be something you can't change, but maybe you'll find it's something that you don't have to change. You can be happy without a girlfriend, and circumstances may have it that if you become a more positive and joyful person a significant other may be attracted to you. Instead of keep saying "I have to turn my life around" you can instead ask yourself what you can do to make slight improvements to the life you do lead.

After enough time passes, how long do you think you can keep getting brought down by the same ideas? The ideas will become old news and you'll adjust to whatever your life is like as the new normal.

With programming try to take small steps forward instead of trying to make too much progress too fast. Think of an easy program to work on and gradually find more complex and elaborate programs after.
>>
seems like the thread died. im off to sleep as well then.
>>
>>38219013
Yeah, obviously drug based solutions have their limitations. Long term its not sustainable, but I need something to power through my current predicament.

I haven't worked in quite a few months and I've become somewhat of a NEET. I have a degree in Math and Computer Science, but no work experience or references, so I'm working on my programming skills and trying to build up a little portfolio of personal projects. Its pretty much the only thing I can do to make my resume look better. To make matters worse, I got my degree 4 years ago, did nothing with it, spending my time underemployed in a job I got purely through family connections. I've never even drafted a resume before or been in an actual job interview.

On top of that, I've suffered from depression and social anxiety for the past 15 years of my life, but I only started getting proper treatment 4 years ago. My brain is so full of negative self-inflicted delusions from years of suffering that I feel I have to take drastic steps to try and kickstart my brain into a functional state.

Yeah its not a good situation, but at least I'm not a brainlet, can rely on my parents for financial support, and have a degree and actual employable skills.

On the downside, even after I get a job (assuming its at least somewhat enjoyable and not boring), I have to go about establishing a proper social life, work on my appearance and social skills, and find myself a girlfriend lest I go insane from loneliness and complete lack of any sort of female intimacy (it's a biological constraint that pretty much needs to be fulfilled, so thanks again to my brain fucking me).

I'm realistic in how this will take a long time and a bunch of work to accomplish, but as long as I can have faith in that it might just work I believe I can do it. The problem is I don't have faith; all I have is self-doubt.
>>
>>38219146
>Things like a lack of success with women may be something you can't change, but maybe you'll find it's something that you don't have to change. You can be happy without a girlfriend

What bothers me the most is for the past 7 years or so I haven't really been bothered much about being single. I felt totally content with my situation and acknowledged that although a significant other can bring joy to one's leaf, it can also lead to pain, or can just be something that is eventually taken for granted (ie neutral). Like everything in life, the hedonistic treadmill always keeps us in the same spot no matter how hard we try.

It's only in the past month that I've felt completely overwhelmed, to the point of feeling suicide, with the lack of a woman in my life. I don't even have a history of failure; it's more just that I've never really put myself out there and tried, due to social anxiety.

I have no evidence suggesting that I'm hopeless with women, but too much time on the internet and too much depression has completely fucked me to the point of feeling that finding a woman who I love (and loves me back) is unattainable.

Probably the thing that hits me the hardest is the feeling that is impossible, or rather too late, to change anything. I feel this when it comes to career and a romantic life. How employable is a 27 year old who hasn't ever held a job? How dateable is a 27 year old who has never been on a date? Seems pretty brutal. I feel like my only hope is to push myself to the limit, dare I say even to the level of delusion, so that I can have the confidence to actually apply my skills and accomplish something.

I just want my negative emotions like fear and doubt to not get in the way of things. Obviously those emotions exist for a reason, to protect us from doing something insanely stupid, but as this point I pretty much need to annihilate them if I'm to have any chance at accomplishing anything whatsoever.

>finding a woman who I love (and loves me back)
Couples in romantic movies idealize and glorify relationships to the point that it seems like heaven on Earth. But that's just the movies. Real relationships, like you alluded to before, can be messy, argument fueled power struggles. Women aren't perfect creatures. They can be cruel, mean spirited and cheat on you. If you think having a girlfriend will fix your depression here's an example of things going in the exact opposite direction:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzzrofG34E0
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBxaUvGypF0

>I've never really put myself out there
Putting yourself out there is easier said than done. I don't know if your like me, but because I don't have the money to go out to eat and I don't have any friends putting myself out there isn't an option. I think you need to have male friends first, and they'll have acquaintances and connections to parties and other circle of friends for you to do so, but barring that I think you should try to find ways to be happy without a gf.

>It's only in the past month that I've felt completely overwhelmed, to the point of feeling suicide
See if you can find ways to calm yourself down when you're feeling overwhelmed. Maybe you could try splashing some cold water on your face, taking a shower, going for a walk, listening to music, watching T. V., watching a funny movie, starting a journal, lifting weights, going for a run, watch videos on Youtube, anything to try to take the focus off of negative thoughts and hopefully something to lift your mood as well. An important thing to keep in mind is suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and that problem is your depression. Things may seem bad now, and you may think they'll never change but that's just the depression talking. Change is the only constant in life, and things always get better. Deciding your life isn't worth living while your depressed is like doing Math with a broken calculator
