who wasted their teen years here? >never went to a house

>>39497956
I never went to a party and have no friends yet somehow I did all that other shit even though I spend all day inside

>>39498004
what was your secret?

>>39497956
I did pretty much all of that except have a gf since I was/still am autistic

me , none of the above,

i kidded myself that when i got to college everythign was magically gonna change, instead it was all the same, just slightly friendlier,

>>39498030
i've had a girlfriend (for a month) she broke up with me because i was "boring"

Thats my only regret. But im only 20, so i still have a chance.
>inb4 pedo

>>39498219
>but im only 20, so i still have a chance.
it's not really weird if it's one of the popular gurls or whatever it's only weird if it's the weird autistic girl who said she could see ghosts

I did pretty much all of that except had sex, would trade it all for that. Missed out because beta and shy.

>>39497956
>I played Diablo II and Warcraft 3 at their prime
not a single fuck given, no remorse.
I got a gf some years after uni anyway, together to this day. The bottom line is: you have the rest of your life for sex, but good franchises only last so long and even good games only remain popular to be enjoyable on-line for so long.

>tfw just turned 27
>starting to actually look middle age now
>literally wasted my entire youth
I've literally just sat in my parents house and went to school up until like 24, with the only social activities being playing vidya with online friends.
These past 3 years have pretty much been the same except instead of school it's been going to work.

I mean yeah I regret it, but I was and still am a social autist so even if I would've tried it still would've been a shitty experience imo. Since birth I just never had a chance

>>39498219
I think that's the reason I'm a pedo. I've never experienced early teen love or any love for that matter. I'm attracted to women of all fertile ages (10-50) which means I'm not an exclusive pedo. I just want to experience teen love. I never grew up.

>>39498334

You're literally me. I took barely any college classes and wasted a lot of my youth. At 24 I got my first job, been working different jobs since then. I don't even care about wasting my youth at this point, my biggest fear is that I keep wasting my entire life and its too late to change.

>>39498334


save every penny, invest like crazy, aim for a couple million in 15 years. Dont go beta bux, because a female vulture will spot you and try to rob you to pay for her Chad bastards.

>>39497956
>never went to a house party
>never hot boxed a car
>never had sex with a GF
>never watch the sunrise in a field after a night out
>never brought alcohol underage

None of these things are that exciting. Go some a joint in your car and you can check off 1 and 2.

>>39497956
>>don't have any fond memories
now that I think about it I don't have any real memories of my teen years at all. I never even had a friend in high school. I just went to school and came home and did whatever I did.

>>39498454
how does one act like a normie without success?

>>39498422
Meh, I don't see that happening desu. I'm making enough to where I can live comfortably, and buy a few things I want but that's about it.
I don't even care about getting a qt stacy anymore, a plain jane or even a chubby would be fine. I'm just tired of being alone. It was fine before, but it just gets depressing the more you age and realize how short life is. These past years have just flown by.

What do you mean wasted ? people that became teenagers turned judgmental cruel and two-faced

Seriously being a pre-teen are the best periods, playing video games, putting shit on fire, destroying public property, experimenting with all kinds of shit
Running in the fields, fuckin with grumpy adults, throwing dirt balls at each other, play and pretend, doing all kinds of weird shit without any judgments.

When people i knew turned into full blown teenagers all they wanted to do is get wasted and go to parties and experiment with drugs.
They become judgy, nitpicky, are focused on appearance and the way they dress all of a sudden, it's not about having "fun" anymore, it's about oh hey did you know what he or she did last night oh way, it's not about being "social" it's about status and hanging with the right crowd, it's about what you dress, how you act and what you do....

Teenagers are the worst, they become like demonized version of their previous self, they literally mentally and psychically change, adults are trash and so are most teenagers.

In essence that's what teenage years are the transition years into a full blown self-centered hypocritical asshole adult, fuck teenagers.

Everyone I know who did all that shit all lead boring as shit lives and they regret wasting their time when they were younger. You've got an idealised view of what teens are meant to be like, I also didn't do any of that shit and couldn't give a fuck about it. I also didn't do any of that shit in uni and still turned out better than most of the people I went school and uni with (in the sense that I have a job, am alright at it and don't constantly feeling stressed about anything which apparently everyone else does for some reason).

>>39497956
i tried to do all that shit and it fucked me up.
it can go wrong.

>>39497956
Me.
I wasted all my time being a neet or study hard to get in a prestigious college.

I figured I will graduate, but by then I'll be like a vegetable, old and busted with a weak body.
Trying hard to work and make money to marry a woman who would have been wasted by niggers during all those years of partying.

That is even if I get any girl.

Then you are a piece of shit and you deserve whats happening to you right now.

I have to sit and see people who may or may not be better than me, get it all without ever putting any effort or work, just because life and genetics favored them.

I study to become an engineer, I went through a hell of suffering since school and it has never been any easier, every year gets tougher.

But my work, will never get to recognized.
I work and put my brain at the service of our society so that my future wige can cuck me up with real men while I bust my ass trying to resolve and plan a big scaled project.

Is it fair?

>>39499103
>I wasted all my time being a neet or study hard to get in a prestigious college.


Same. I did that, and didnt even get into a half decent school because I struggled with SAT exams.

I decided my Junior year I'd just go to community college and avoid taking the SAT altogether. Luckily I never wasted any money on expensive test prep - I just took advantage of the classes my school offered.

I did pass a bunch of AP exams though. So, the hard work sort of paid off.

I still spent 3 years at community college not knowing what to do with my life and then transferred to a mediocre state school where I majored in political science and graduated with honors. It was all a total waste of time. I'm now a 29 year old NEET.

>>39499294
financially i do alright, i just feel like something is missing

>>39499103
Don't fall for the meme normalfag meme that having fun as a teenager is the most important thing in the world. I also spent all my teenage years making sure I'd get into uni to do a good course and at the end of it all I'm the only one who actually doesn't hate the position I'm in now. Everyone else is straddled in shitload of debt, don't have a job and don't have much of a future by their own admission.

>>39497956
Teen years is a myth.
I mean, sure, most teens do that stuff. But it's not really what happened throughout the majority of history. during the industrial revolution, children worked with their parents for 100 hours a week. A lot of people couldn't get into schools. So the chance of you having that kind of a life back then was non-existent. I wasted my teen years playing vidya; but I'm doing what a lot of teens (who did everything) are doing now and for the rest of my life, because the successful teens get jobs with long hours, and they have to settle down, and they push pencils their entire lives. I work on a boat for a very liveable amount of money, and I blow it every summer on women, camping, and liquor, because I like to have fun. I'm going to be doing this up until my 50s before I have a heart attack and die.

I don't think it is a meme.
I just made the wrong choices and that fucked me up.

You see you do have all the chances you need to succeed but one has to stay realistic about the outcomes.
You don't pretend you can get in and through a prestigious school if you don't have the brains and money for it, but more importantly if you are already too old for it( I got in at 22yo).

Unless you study some shit that work out good in life such as economy and financial fields, you are pretty much on your own and can only blame yourself or be happy you study something for yourself and not for any other reasons.

I wanted a normal life, with a very good job, a wife and kids.
But times changed too much.

You don't know what you are talking about.
I've seen shit that completely depressed me and killed my will to work.

When I go to work I'm surrounded by assholes who never got as far as I did, are lazy as fuck, or have 0 ambitions or standards.
You could tell them they get a couple of bucks by smuggling coke they do it asap.


But still, they manage to get everything I wanted and never got.
That's as simple as that.

Women don't give a fuck how smart you are, your ambitions, life plan or that you are an honest man.
They just want to feel free and idealized, and that goes with the age.

Are you kidding? It was top comfy. Browsing earlier 4chan (10-11's, not oldfag but it was more endearing back then), playing DS games and old emulators, not having to study as much as I do now, reading stuff like a Song of Ice and Fire, fapping furiously... The only thing I do wish I'd gotten is a qt gf (though I ended up magicaly getting one at 18 but that age is not teens anymore no matter what you autists think).

>>39497956

I know this feel. I had the potential to have all those things which makes it even worse. People and girls liked me, but i was clueless and strange. Friendships never went past the classroom and i was never invited to parties. I lost hope after 15. I wonder if things would have been easier if cell phones were more common back then so I wasnt left out of the loop so easily. About the only consolation I can take is that most of the people from high school who partied and got laid seem to be burn outs now with poor prospects.

>>39500077

i went on a ski trip once, met this guy and we clicked, we had similar sense of humour and interests; to others it seemed like we have been friends for years. then the trip ended and we spoke like twice after it

Literally this.
I thought everything would go for the best after I graduate, work and keep my dreams up.

I was always thaught I should only focus on my studies.

And it is all bullshit when you see people that are beneath you not only surpass you on everything that does matter in life but on top of that they can even mane your life a living hell if they chose to.

Now I understand why elites are such pricks.

of course its not fair. life is never fair, you should know that at this point

i was on the road to normiehood in middle school and got a lot of those out of the way luckily. Once I hit 14 it all went to shit, especially my skin, and its been a neverending downward spiral since then

Meh. Did it all when I went to college anyway. Though I was like 20-24. I do resent never having normal teenage love. Small community and as the ugly girl in my tiny school (30 ppl in year) no one would date me. Kinda fucked me over to this day. Like thst shits important in those formative years.

Also is that American skins?

No regrets because I enjoyed my time, even if I probably would have been more well of socially if I did live it differently.
I liked staying inside to work on my hobbies like Gunpla and discover some nice communities like 4chan. I probably would have enjoyed getting out there and being social too, but that's not what I chose.

I guess I can post my highschool lame adventures here?

One time me and my friend eric(known him since middleschool) and my other friend sam(known him in currenty year this takes place because we take the same bus to school) went over sams house because he said he has a virus on his computer doing some crazy shit like his computer screen with virus bugs and airships blowing up.(Which I knew was false)
So we went over and the computer seemed all nice and good so we just chilled on his apartment for a bit. Later we decided to get some food and sam wanted some pizza from up the street it was a mom and pop place but I knew that pizza was greasy and shit.
We went there ate some expensive pizza slices and drinks. Later on the walk home my friend eric said we could have gone down the street the other way and gotten 2pizzas for $10

Nothing really worth telling right? I got another story about them and me doing my first illegal thing since I was a brainwashed scaredy cat in highschool.

>>39497956
I was pretty normie until after college. My childhood, preteen years, high school years, and college were full of playing sports, playing outside, riding bikes, sleepovers, staying up all night playing GTA with friends, ding-dong-ditching, smoking pot as a teen, getting drunk in the woods, becoming an all-region high school athlete, parties, driving around town, losing my virginity.

I did it all but now I do nothing

same desu

did all of the OP EXCEPT THE FUCKING GF PART
I dont know whats wrong with me

I spend way too much time on 4Chan but I have still accomplished all of these things. It's all about having the right balance.

Very few people know I use 4chan except for my best friend and my gf. That being said, my gf is the only one who really knows what 4chan is. The key is to live life like a normie until you are alone/with the people you trust. Being a normie can be fun, but it's only justified when you know that you are being a disgusting normie. I can spend all day having fun with my friends but at night I go right back to being an autistic retard on this website. It's easier than you think. Life is like one big joke. Just pretend like you're in a movie and you have been tasked with playing the role of a fun loving, popular person. You don't need to believe in half the shit you do, just do it.

No, I didn't waste my teenage years. I'm mad that you wasted everyones time with your completely worthless, boring story.

>never had sex with a GF

You mean never had a GF?

>>39497956

>who wasted their teen years here?
No
>never went to a house party
Not one I was personally invited to
>never hot boxed a car
I have
>never had sex with a GF
Yes
>never watch the sunrise in a field after a night out
Not in a field, but on my roof
> never brought alcohol underage
No
>don't have any fond memories
The only thing I regret is not spending more time with my dog. I don't like people, so I don't consider that time wasted.

yeet

I did all those things in my early 20s. Late 20s now and due to having unprotected sex so much I am dying of hep c.

Until I was 21 I never even kissed a girl so I lived like 6 years of good fun.

Now my life and career is over and I am going to drink myself to death cause I can't afford the cure.

In the eyes of many i may have wasted my teens but my senior year of high school was the comfiest year of my life
>Only had the 4 core classes because i had all of my extra credit classes done so i went home at like 12:30
>At the time we were selling our house so my parents were gone pretty much all day in case potential buyers wanted to check the place out
>Would spend all day playing vidya and watching crappy slice of life anime
>Had like 200 dollars in starbucks giftcards from over the years of holidays so i would get a coffee every day after school
>All for like 8 months straight
Maybe it doesnt sound like all that much but id kill for just one more day of that

>>39505657
I remember everyone tell me while i was in school that highschool is the best years of your life and I would have to agree even if our years weren't that exciting

>>39497956
Only fond memories I had of being a teen were watching anime and reading comics. Whether that could be called a waste depends on the person

>>39505691
I definitely understand what they mean now. No worries, no responsibilities. We all take it for granted in some way or another.

>>39505742
Exactly all you really had to worry was just passing highschool which was easy where I lived but I miss those easy days of just shitposting and playing vidya and watching anime

I'm a Wizard, but there was a period in my lief where I did all of those things except have sex. What made them fun was the sense of being alive and free, and I think most importantly - expanding in the world and exploring the world. The things in themselves weren't that good or they can easily be replicated.

The 'fun' in house parties is mostly just the anticipation (which was often disappointed, often ended in someone being really hurt in some way), or just 'random shit' that happens, which you could easily experience by messing around on a MMO game. Most people have a lot of negative experiences - seeing some douche hook up with your crush? getting punched because some guy has a massive chip on his shoulder? having a bad experience with drugs\alcohol and feeling totally isolated an alone surrounded by people? Oh, and i'm pretty sure most house parties are just attempts to mimic what TV or other people say they're like...so a lot of the time you realise how fake everyone is.

Your life isn't over, you can feel ALIVE, you might just have to find a different way of doing it. So you're introverted and hate talking to people face to face? Talk to people online from all over the world and learn about their experiences. Or pick a subject and learn about something in-depth. Go for nightwalks or explore the world with streetview and 4k drone footage. Discover new music.

I really believe your sense of having 'missed out' on certain experiences is misplaced. Forget it and build a life.

This is a really good post, btw. I remember the transition phase in early highshool from actually having this sort of unselfconscious fun and adventure, to suddenly everything being about parties an alcohol and hooking up. Mostly I think it was guys trying desperately to seem more adult to the females who were more interested in more adult guys.
