Did anyone else find this scene incredibly heartbreaking?

yes. very much so. i relate very stongly to being optimistic about social situations and then being incredibly disappointed at the outcome. it really starts to weigh on you that you can't possibly do any better after failure after failure.

10 years ago maybe, I'm not that beta now.

Have you tried just being yourself?

Oh man, same. This scene cut right to the core of that. The party/gathering/hangout never goes as well as I hope it will. And I always feel like such an idiot for thinking it was going to that perfect night in the first place

(if you need to tell people that, you probably still are)

I told him to be himself. That was pretty mean, I guess.

It must be hard being handsome

>>79053388
My self looks like I just crawled out from under a bridge because I heard goats and/or children approaching and I must feed. That's a hard sell.

Handsome people are people too. Being good looking doesn't just instantly cure any inadequacies or internal issues.

By admiting that 10 years ago I was more beta? Nice thinking there

I wouldn't consider myself "beta" by any means but I can still relate to that scene. I still sometimes build up a specific social event in my head and then get really disappointed when it turns out to just be average.

Yes and no. I'm doing a lot better now. I have put myself out there like i said and even though it doesn't go great most time I do learn a bit. I don't know what it means to be myself anymore since i have changed a lot and act almost uncharacteristically reserved around non family but I can hold conversatons now and fit into a crowd a lot better. Also my acne is clearing up and my haircut is alright now and I'm confident in how I dress so I don't feel as bad as
>>79053440
even though I used to. It feels terrible to end up somewhere normies congregate and feel like you're too ugly to even be seen by such people.

I know man. So many times in high school did I get dressed up all excited that this time would be different. I thought I'd finally be that interesting witty guy and talk to some qts and make some good friends and then
>sitting and not talking for three hours
>pity small talk from well meaning normies that i cant keep going
>go home and mad that i dont know what i did wrong

I found it very ředdit.

What does that mean though?

>>79053195
JGL is too ugly to be relatable.
