The loneliness inside me is a place
My scapulae are hideously mutated from years of gymnastics rings. No woman will ever love me if they know. I try so hard to hide them. I wear backpacks everywhere I go, I even sit down on the train with my backpack on. There's a girl at my uni who seems to be nice to me but I'm terrified she'll find out.
what does this mean? you got that quasimodo aesthetic?
I have a condition called "horse scapula".
I have a condtion called "horse wiener". it's even worse
when i google that i get nothing but horses on images. can you post a pic bro?
Black person, don't be stupid. They'll love it and won't be able to keep their hands off your back.
>jerked off to gay porn again
same happened to me yesterday, only happens to twinks getting fricked though
I dont have feelings for men, or twinks I know in real life

i did my first week of my 4 week program, 5/3/1. this is the first time i'm doing a real program. i've been stuck in perma-beginner mode for years and got sick of it, decided i had to actually structure my lifting. overall it feels pretty good, finally setting myself up for long term progress. next IST-wise i need to get on doing some sort of cardio or endurance exercise on the days i'm not lifting, will try jumping rope and maybe jogging or sprinting outside when the weather is better. outside of IST stuff, trying to make the best of my crummy job by trying to go above and beyond and get positive attention from my bosses and be proactive and assertive. it's not a great place and i don't think they're going to really be making any improvements but i'm making the best of it until i have enough money to move to a new state and start my life over. overall i'd say i feel more mentally and emotionally stable than i've been in years.
Not getting out of beginner programs and trying to muh milk them beginner gainz for too long is a pitfall that I've fallen into, losing a lot of time spinning my wheels.
Been going back to the gym alot more this week. Lost about 10 lbs that I gained back in early Dec which is good to hear, on my last semester of school before I go into the workforce and kiss my youth goodbye. I have no idea what to do this year besides lifting and going to this one concert. There's this cute girl in one of my classes but I think it'll be weird and autistic to ask her out since we're in the same field of study and I don't want to shit where I eat. I'm a bit hopeful looking forward, hopefully those prospects last.
that pic goes hard
Mentioned this 73314466 in last thread.
I do 100% trust she’s not a hoe and I’m the last man she’s fricked, I just know. And trust me, I normally default into assuming the opposite.
But she finally texted me what she wanted to talk about a few hours ago so I called her. She texted that there was porn under her and my name on google, separate searches and she accused me of doing it.
So I have her send me screen shots because I don’t see shit. She sends screen shots from like 10+ pages in and not a single one contain her or my name. Just some spelling variation of our names, but only the first or last. None had her last name at all (very obscure name). My first name is common like “Matt” or “Micheal” my last name has hundreds of people with it all over the globe. Her first name is very common like “Emily”.
The sites that were popping up, over 10 pages deep on google, were random foreign sites like “Runews.Ru” or “Labinopartiu.fr”
And all it showed in the preview was:
>[random French/Russian words] Emmilly[random Russian/French words] footjob[random Russians words] [insert totally random persons name like Ronald Martinez] anal [random French/Russian words]
Some would contain just a bunch of usernames from Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and tiktok and maybe include someone with my same last name so for example “Anton [lastname]” and also still include something like “sex” or some porn niche.
Told her no I have not shit to do with that.
Then tried to explain it’s just random bot made sights scraping username data from social media to get clicks and she wouldn’t hear it. She swears it’s impacting her getting a job.
This b***h seriously believes employers background checks include googling someone, and that these random sights with no pertinence to herself not even her name on them are impacting it.
She got mad at me, snapped at me, basically told me my lack of concern was an issue.
1/2 almost done
Tried to explain I’m not concerned because I 100% know that’s not why she’s having trouble, everyone is having issues getting a job it’s a recession. She got mad again. Said I never have concern for her problems which is just plain false. Told her I could be a rock for her or I could get upset too, same shit she disliked that.
Long story short, I did something I didn’t have to for her, was there after the breakup and she kind of showed me it’s best we’re done. Just super unappreciative, it’s how she always was. Idk what her issue is. Not my problem. Personality & attitude are a damn shame she’s hot And low body count. But insufferable and impossible to please, totally unappreciative and doesn’t value me, also doesn’t seem that bright… Oh well.
Oops
Anyways…. I didn’t have to call her or be there or try to offer reassurance or show her it’s not a problem or explain what I did. She was fairly rude about it and basically told me I’m not good enough my support is bullshit and always has been lol
Learned what it’s like to have a woman who can never be pleased except for in bed oddly fricking enough
I forgot the worst part about
I tried to look up a random name to prove to her that this was nothing, the first name to pop in my head was the mentally and physically handicapped kid that went to my elementary school. I last saw him about 6 years ago in college, said hi to him used to greet him in passing. He had since upgraded from a big fat black wrangler to an electric wheel chair & free reign, but I did get to see him walking the last time I saw him.
So I google him, and see an obituary posting with his face in the search preview saying he passed a few years ago on Christmas. It made me sad. I told her I needed a few moments and she got mad at me. I recall seeing his mother on a field day, and all I can think of how fricked up that must be to go through. She probably knew he would die young, but to have him pass on Christmas. He may have been a israelite which makes that a little better, at least she won’t have to spend Christmas as sad, not that any holiday wont be crushing regardless, but I honestly don’t know, I won’t hate or talk shit on this israelite if he was. It makes me sad. I’m all bummed out even though I was never close, we had classes since first grade. He reminds me of the kid from Freak the Mighty. Idk what was wrong with him but he passed before 30. Idk how he ended up in a wheel chair as an adult because as little kids he could walk run, scream at trees, etc. I don’t really have any fond memories except for seeing the smile on his face when I recognized him in college and greeted him. That seemed to genuinely make his whole year. He just seemed so happy to have another person that wasn’t family say hi and know who he was. I feel like shit that as little elementary schoolers we would laugh at him. I have a distinct memory of a field trip where we all played baseball and I pointed out that he was picking his ass while on base to a couple friends. Seemed so innocent to me back then. Now it makes me sick that I laughed.
I misread. He didn’t pass on Christmas, he passed at 25 years old in 2022. I wish I could do something.
I hate this bros. I wasn’t close, not even barely acquainted with this guy, and his death beats me up. I hate this part of living. I hate how limited our time is. This is the 4th person I’ve known from school or work who has passed away. It always hits me so hard. It keeps me super anxious about my family passing. It keeps me from enjoying the moment, it makes me fear the day I will pass. It makes me fear being elderly and dying probably all alone. I hate this concept so much and I know it’s inevitable and it just is what it is. Someone I barely knew or said more than maybe 20 words to dying has me legitimately sad.
i can relate to that. there was a guy i met back in 2017, we probably only hungout about 5-10 times, but talked a lot online. solid friendship over a shared passion. he moved back to his hometown several states away, i texted him a couple times and one time just never heard back from him. ended up looking him up in like 2021 or 2022, not sure. turned out he had passed away in 2019. saw a picture of him smiling and just started crying. shit is too sad, homie didn't deserve it.
i had a much closer friend of mine also pass away in 2019 but that one i found out the next day. he was only 18. i just find myself sitting here thinking about all the fun things we could have been doing over the years. its been about 4 1/2 years since he passed and i still can't believe it. i regret all these things i didn't do to make our friendship better, all these things that would have made his life easier and better even in the smallest little ways. i bawled my eyes out damn near all day when i found out he had died. i can just picture him so clearly in my head part of me still can't accept that its been almost 5 years since he passed and ill never see my friend again. it makes me so damn upset and angry that things couldn't have turned out better for him. his friendship was one that was so real and genuine. i just have such a hard time accepting that ill never see him again. i make up these stupid fantasies in my head that he actually had to go into witness protection or something and had to start over in a new life. but i just know thats not true. definitely crying while writing all this shit so sorry if its not that coherent.
i don't mean to detract from what you're saying, i've just never really talked about how my friends death has affected me. for that guy you talk about, i bet it made his day by you saying hi to him when you saw him.
its easy to be worried by it because it puts our mortality on a pedestal.
1/2
Put my ex in her place today. I’m the anon who made a bunch of long paragraph posts about this shit. I snapped because she did it again, this time saying I’m the one whos been condescending. It’s super gay and spazzy but I send her a step by step on why what shes been claiming is utter horseshit. And she couldn’t even say shit back, she tried to do her usual deflection and narcissistic concealed dagger of “I’m sorry you feel that way” but I ignored or called her out on it each time. Or she would try to bring up random unrelated BS that was long resolved to deflect and say I’m the bad guy which I ignored. I ended it by saying
>Your attempts to deflect and dodge what I’ve addressed will not help. I am done here, I’ve told you some of where you’ve gone wrong whether you accept it and put in effort to improve and grow is none of my business.
Yeah I know it’s b***h tier arguing with a woman and an ex especially but it needed to be said. If she’s ever gonna end up happy with a good relationship she needs to change her behaviors even if it’s not with me.
She gave up and then hours later sent me a big ass paragraph seemingly trying to reconcile realizing I’m right but she still never apologized or anything the whole basis of her essay was essentially “I was just sharing how I felt and my POV” which is still horsecrap.
Idk if she’ll ever change, I’m doubtful she will change for me. I am upset because I finally found one with a low body count while also being super hot, she’s never really had any real relationship before either. But she’s super immature and acts like a b***h. If anyone who reads this is unsure of which posts above are mine I’ll quote them but you should be able to tell no one’s replied to them except me
>puts mortality on a pedestal
100% dude. It’s not just sad that someone we knew passed, it strikes us with this harrowing and depressing panic. That’ll be everyone we know & it never gets easier.
She sounds mentally ill.
When dudes act this way they either get diagnosed as being on the spectrum or they end up on prison.
Girls just keep on trucking because there's always enough simps to pick up the pieces.
Glad you're moving outta simpville
2/2
lifes too short, and an easy cope is joining a religion with a set afterlife. ngl, i do hope there is something more after this, and wouldn't be entirely surprised if there is. there is so much we know nothing about so who is to say what truly happens? im not trying to pontificate too much as i've done enough blogposting tonight.
i've just been working on accepting the fact that time will move on, nothing will change that, so might as well enjoy it and make myself healthy and strong in the meantime while on this physical plane of existence. shit is tough, but i find little moments throughout the day that make it all worth it.
Also I’ve been getting back into religion. I was Christian as a young child, BS happened with the church where I missed like 2 days of Sunday school and they told my mom I had to start over from the beginning so we stopped going. I was athetist from 14-mid 20s. The last year I’ve been getting more and more into it. But idk that I’d say I’m Christian. I believe in God. I’m trying to be a better man and to live how I believe God wants us to live. Using the Bible as inspiration and to learn, but I find it hard to commit to Jesus Christ. I’m afraid to say it but it sounds like cope to me, I genuinely think the best we can do is make a valiant effort to improve and absolve from our personal sins via hard work and immense effort to become our best selves and make the world and those around us better. To build, whether that’s a family with these same values or it’s anything bigger than ourselves which gives back to the world and the living things and the people in it. I think that’s the best we can do to make it. I’m not even sure what making it is. Is it heaven? Do we just get recycled and live a new life? Is that life as another human or could it be any living thing? Do souls stay seperate or do they all combine and a “chunk” of multiple are plucked to make one new one? Idk. I do think the way is what I’ve written above though. Improve, strive nonstop to be our best self, try to spread that around us, help the world and everyone else improve. If I’m wrong, I can die satisfied that’s how I lived. If I’m right then I was right.
I know it’s long and a massive wall of text but doesn’t anyone have experience with a woman who acts like what I can only call a c**t just impossible to make happy
How do I regain some form of spirituality?
I've been an atheist since I was 14, I'm now 33. I don't know if I can still believe in Jesus but I'd like to rediscover some form of piety.
become a Thailand sex pest and discover Buddhism
I'm 29 in a month
I started connecting with my consciousness and the nature more, while focusing on professional social and personal growth
I can honestly say that, after some harsh years, and as a life long atheist, I feel "pious" for the first time and excited about life, and being alive
"joy" is a word from christian mythos I'd use to describe the bulk of my feelings
however it is too late for me to believe god walked the earth or muhammed talked to angels or moses divided the sea, but I successfully connected with my humanity
try going camping or taking walks in the cold etc
>Water please
Very lonely in dental school, lots of downtime where I just study by myself. Its kinda hard to form meaningful relationships. Also have some rando roommate who's always off doing whatever, and I don't want to be stuck with him again next year, but it is looking like the most cheap and convenient option so whatever.
thank god I'm tall and handsome because I'm a loser on all other fronts of life. girls put up with me but that might finally change if I don't get my shit together
im 5'10 and mid but funny, smart and rich
I have a booming social and professional life but my dating life is non existent for the last 3 fricking years lol
I wish we could play swap for a two weeks, should be fun
I'd swap places in a heartbeat. I've engaged in extreme stuff, had 3 gfs at the same time, lived like a total degen. but all that pleasure is fleeting and unsustainable. I'd rather have money and stability and just stay inside tbf
anon, I'm saying this to hopefully hype you up a bit
you are right - my life is good, and I'll get out of my shell more this year bounce back from this dry spell
you should also come up with an actionable plan and take steps to turn your life around. we all can achieve whats lacking, the year just started!
I believe this as well. I just got accepted by the army to put me through med school. not enough money to make that investment by myself. so they'll pay for my degree and give me small salary to live on. maybe I'll get droned to death on some chinese beach in a few years but you take the ups with the downs
good luck my friend. you're in the perfect position to end that dry spell
hell yeah that sounds amazing
in 15 years you'll have shitton of memories to look back on and shitton-er means to secure a great life
assuming the chinese bit doesnt happen kek
godspeed and cheers
That's awesome.
Teaching yourself how to draw really fricking sucks sometimes because you hit a roadblock so specific that there are literally no tutorials or lectures that go over that specific thing you don't understand
try writing out the problem your having, explain it as you would to someone who knows nothing about drawing. you'll probably learn something. then put it into chatgpt to see what it says
That’s here you experiment and overcome it on your own and how you have a unique personal style no one else has.
Drawing is harder than literally anything you'll ever do in life.
I've been drawing for 7 years and I'm still not good enough to draw the stories I want to tell. I took a break for a year just to learn digital sculpting... And was already good enough to be doing paid comissions 8 months in.
Art is really fricking hard, so don't be too hard on yourself too.
Is that you on picture?
solo mangaka's setup
Is that a mpc controller? Cool setup.
What is the best drawing book for a beginner anon?
>I've been drawing for 7 years and I'm still not good enough to draw the stories I want to tell
You just think you're not good enough. Pro tip: you'll never be good enough until you do it.
I've never considered myself a super special artist nor' am I very skilled. I'm 1000% self taught and the only artistic lessons I've taken have been random youtube videos years ago.
I still started it anyways. You only have a limited amount of time on this Earth, there's no reason to worry about being "good enough" to do something you dream of.
Pic related. It's not perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better than what I would have if I kept practicing until I was "good enough".
The issue here comes from speed. Can I produce X amount of panels or X pages in this amount of time?
Being fast enough is a part of being "good enough". No one reads comics that update at a page per week anymore, this isn't the Smackjeeves-era of webcomics.
I admit I'm not exactly the fastest artist (I'm just very humorously lazy) but "not fast enough" isn't nearly a good enough reason to just not do it. If you're really stressed out about it, draw pages for a good year or three before uploading them. Then, continue working on the comic as you would while uploading a page a week.
I promise you, people have patience for stories they want to see told. Lackadaisy is legendary and that shit used to be updated once every few MONTHS. Not every page needs to be an art piece, just get it down and get people invested. That'll keep them around while you get better. It's all fun and games daydreaming about all those epic scenes and badass speeches, but it's another thing actually putting pen to paper and doing it for real.
You have to have a realistic understanding of the sources of motivation, and the places those rewards can take you. The small drips of reward might not be enough to satisfy your thirst but they're enough to motivate you to find the source.
>I've been drawing for 7 years and I'm still not good enough to draw the stories I want to tell.
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
>Teaching yourself how to
Don't.
In any field.
The person who chose to learn from experts is already so far ahead of you it's not funny.
Sometimes self-taught is the only way people have access to. Just reading books, tutorials and watching instructional videos with no direct feedback
Not everyone has a Watt's Atelier in their town
I don't consider using tutorials as self taught. Not sure what a typical definition is. Whenever I knew someone claiming to be self taught they didn't reference any instructive material whatsoever.
That's moronic. Why WOULDN'T someone use learning materials. Self taught means you didn't have a teacher giving you direct lessons and feedback, that's what it always meant we're not changing that definition
Steve Hustons's beginner video course is what I would recommend.
He teaches you from the ground up, how to measure, how to simplify, what to do and common mistakes.
You can move onto Vilppu next
>we're
?
Pair self-taught with business classes or education but you MUST create projects for profit/put through production to build a portfolio
I paired self-taught and a college degree, worthless for HR reps - view it this way, you're renting your time and no one picks the rusty truck however good the brand
B.S in a way, but it is what it is

Also, I shaved my head last week and some guy at my gym I've seen for years there decided to strike up a conversation with me before he left. He is also bald. I am not sure what to make of this.
why didnt you just uber to get a battery and bring it back anon?
I don't know how to change a car battery.
Is it really that ez? Well I get shocked?
They have how-to guides though you might need a hand tool to take off the secure bits. Most likely your battery just was cold shocked and would need to be warmed up and jump started and allowed to run and it would be fine.
Welp, fugg it. Dark af, cold af but I know I got tools. Gonna yolo this b***h. Thank you, James May.
I have procured the battery from the truck and it is sitting in my kitchen sink thawing out. I'll need to wake up early tomorrow morning but hopefully it will work to get me to and from work and replace the thing.
>mfw i did auto repairs
Hopefully you didn't drain it too much. If you did, it would probably need a jump start to help it create enough chemicals inside the battery. I'm not super familiar with cold conditions like that though, worst case scenario you still need a battery but now you have confidence to slap a new one in.
I also had this happen once, I had a battery charger and I charged it up just enough that it was able to start, it releases gas while charging though so you gotta do it outside.
I had a multimeter so I could check the voltage while I was charging it to make sure I didn't charge it too far. If you buy a new one make sure you get as many cold cranking amps as you can.
bald bros stick together
My battery did the same thing today leaving HEB after getting food for the next few freezing days. Frick the cold.
Update: have spent the past 40 minutes putting the battery back in. It read 12.33-12.4V this morning which either too low or it very much needs a jumpstart. If my coworker has jumper cables I'll ask him when he picks me up. If not, frick it. I'm towing it. It's either the battery or alternator and if the latter I'm not able to mess with it.
CCA is not the same as voltage. you got had by a bunch of bus riding morons.
I don't understand what you are even saying. I tried it and it didn't work. Now I know. What's your problem?
I don’t have a problem. You could have just googled “cold weather dead battery” and found your answer instead of going through all the trouble you went through. Your 10 year old battery discharged to the point that it cannot be redeemed, sir. Cold Cranking Amps is what matters in your situation. You need a new battery.
Noted. Guess I'm taking an Uber to Walmart or a nearby auto store after work.
Apologies if my post came off as rude. I’m an IST autist and things like the battery should be common knowledge. After all, you are operating a 3 ton steel and aluminum box that’s capable of speeds upwards of 100mph, basic maintenance knowledge should be known. Unless you’re a woman, then it’s excusable.
Hope it all works out for

There are many things I'm having to be my own dad about. But apology accepted. Let's hope a new battery is all.
Welcome to being bald, its a brotherhood
i have let go of desire and my life has improved so much
How did you go about that?
give me a water, barman.
turns out the girl who texted me on new year’s eve at 3am asking to hangout and then never responded to my texts got into a car accident that night and was in the hospital. the dude she left with (probably fugging him idk) got arrested for dui with injury/damage, cocaine possession, suspended license, etc etc and has been in jail like 2 weeks cause he cant afford bail. she just texted me asking me to come by to visit her, apparently shes got 2 broken legs and her face got pretty banged up. i don’t know how i am going to react when i see her but im going to see her tomorrow night.
don’t drink and drive anons
I remember your post, wasn't she your ex or something? Anyways, post what happened if this thread is still up now I'm invested in the story
ex co worker whom i had a small crush on.
damn breh im just going to see and check up on her after she got fricked up in a car accident. im not going to wear a fedora and spend my whole night servicing her. i still haven’t seen her face but she told me that it got pretty fricked up and honestly im just curious to how bad it was.
We all know you're not just going to turn up, look at her face out of curiosity, and leave.
Nothing good will come of this. Leave well enough alone. Most women don't have the decency to signal they're crazy until they're too late, this one is waving flags at you.
Dude you're a fricking idiot for even considering white knighting and simping for this b***h
i said goodbye to the person i cared about, rolling for pushups after i drive.
rolling for rows now. bartender, hand over the closest thing to a punch to the kidneys from an ape
I am always going to be a fat frick.
No one is ever going to love me.
Why shouldn't I take up drinking again?
Online dating is fun, too bad most of these girls have no humor
>dancing monkey i hope she likes me.
witty texts and message lol.
Most have no humor but that one literally looks like the Wayne’s bros in white chicks
majority of women wouldn’t know a good joke if it slapped them across the face like their dad never did
Yeah but I’ve been getting likes and matches with some decent girls. I didn’t actually write “Black folk tongue my anus”, but had to do it to censor sensitive information.
bien trabajo amigo. las latinas aman a los gringos. my ex was colombian and i still think about that culo every day, at least once. she taught me spanish and the latinas LOVE that i can hold a basic, albeit 3rd grade level, conversation with them. if you end up liking that chica, latinas love romance as they all grow up watching mexican telenovelas which are basically soap operas on steroids. you’ll get a succubus level blowjob if you show up to that dinner with some roses, guaranteed
We’ve met up twice already. Had that coffee, then lunch later that week (with a spontaneous axe throwing sesh afterwards). Finally kissed her that time. I asked her, “Como se dicé, ‘I want to kiss you’ en español?” and then went for it. She seemed receptive and is now texting me a lot. Just made plans for a nicer dinner date and drinks afterwards, and told her to dress up with heels.
The only thing is that my Spanish is really dogshit. I can barely converse past a 2nd grade level, and with her 5th grade command of the English language there is a bit of a disparity. There’s a language barrier at play, and it’s a challenge, but I like it though. There is definitely a warmth in personality with Hispanic women, versus the coldness of the WASPs I’m used to.
you got it in the bag, bro. if youve already kissed her and made cutesie spanish comments like the one you mentioned, youve got her creaming for you bro. trust me, the language barrier is going to help you more than it will hurt you (unless you end up wanting something serious, then communication could become an issue). you be her big american english teacher and she’ll end up being the sexy latina student who helps you learn spanish. trust bro, i’ve been in that situation a few times. latinas are very passionate and they have no problems showing it but you have to reciprocate it or else you’re gonna get a shoe thrown at you. that passion they have is something that i’ve never been able to let go of and i always end up with latinas man. they’re still trad enough to be okay with being feminine and they don’t see it as demeaning or whatever feminists think it is.
oregon is a beautiful state btw, bit jelly tbh. you into hiking and bike trails and stuff like that?
Yeah, I’m “adventurer boy” I do all that stuff. We made “adventurer girl” plans for this spring and summer. She seemed really excited.
Whats with jajajjajaja? Is she moronic?
Lmao goddamn. Jajaja is the Spanish way of saying hahaha. You’ve probably seen Brazilian Portuguese huehuehue. There’s also the South American rsrsrs (short for “risos”=laughter), but you have to be on 3rd world internet to see that.
Just be aware that the "are you a man" shit tests are inevitable and she expects you to pass them with flying colours. At some point she's going to be super rude to you for absolutely no apparent reason. If you let it slide you're fricked.
If you take her by the arm and tell her to mind her manners like you're talking to a 5 year old then you're golden.
Women are for breeding and child raising and cooking, not conversing with. A grim reality when you realize 99% of women have the personality of a piece of cardboard.
Haha you're a classy lady lmao.
You have to wine and dine me hahaha
Dude, that's Brock Lesnar's daughter, fricking apologise NOW
Recently diagnosed with adhd and i find myself liking adhd girls. Unfortunately a lot of the hot adhd girls are major prostitutes for some reason. Why is this?
ADHD = a life devoid of delayed gratification.
Nothing gives women more instant gratification than downloading tinder and having endless attention and dick at her fingertips within an hour. They also all drink excessively and smoke weed, both of which also contribute to prostitute behavior.
It’s not as bad as being an autist and liking autist girls.

I know time is the best healer, but what do lads? Don't want to have to step out of the competition and just want to train properly again
I have to get a job but I dont feel like going outside.
Should I neetmaxx until my parents get me a job?
listen here you disgusting insect. your parents are completely ashamed of you and will not always be there to hold your hand while you shit and piss yourself from your social anxiety
everyone around you secretly thinks you are a pathetic loser
how about be a man for once in your life and take control of your life
You sound like a fatherless homosexual lol
did your mom coddle you too much?
Ive had 1 litre of vodka over the weekend and im finishing up the bottle tonight.
I was apparently throwing up and swearing yesterday but I don't remember that shit. As far as I know I had a great weekend.
Will probably do this until I die.

My only problem is that I still feel lonely. Somehow, even when I really hit it off with my coworkers none of them ever want to go out for drinks or go shooting. I even have plans to get coffee with my closest friend in town the day before I fly out. I just finished playing Halo Infinite with my best friend in the world, who will be meeting me in the town my job interview is in. What has me so butthurt?
Nobody explained to you that at a certain age a man is supposed to be a husband and father, not a bro to a cadre of men witg Peter Pan syndrome.
I'm not being a dick. This is just a fact of life. You need to move on from social teenager status.

I rewatched Haibane Ranmei and I'm back to wanting to kill myself.
I hate how very specifically relatable the conflicts are to me, and how there never was a real resolution to their turmoil.

Good news, my bulk started. Bad news, my alcoholism is slowly creeping back. I think I'm stressed because I can't seem to find a job in IT yet and while I haven't given up hope I feel a little defeated for the moment. Overall I'm doing better but recently feeling a bit fricked it's just been stressful recently. I can't seem to silence the urge, the only thing that'd work is probably valium but I'm out.

Don't post it if you don't want to but is it ok if you can tell us the main synopsis of the story?
Depressed anon runs away from his father's farm to go to magic college and must go on misadventures with his friends to afford tuition
i like the sound of that, any chance it will ever be available to read? i've been working on some writing myself but have a long ways to go.
Yeah. This will be my first novel that I've done for more than just personal satisfaction. I intend to publish it with under a pseudonym so that I can mention it in the places online I've talked about it. It would be a process that I'd go through after I finish my day job, so I'm hoping it gets edited, reviewed by beta readers, copy edited, and picked up by a publisher by the end of the year, if not next year
Awesome. Top stuff.
>good news
I've been losing weight, making progress on professional goals, and making good decisions for my health and finances.

I'm very tired, I'm underemployed, and I basically have no life and no friends. It's getting to me. I just want things comfy. I hope by end of year 2024 I can be stable and next year will be the year.
>cope
I'm doing mostly all I can and that's all I can do.
I’m the anon who posted several paragraph posts about his now ex and I’m actually fuming now. I didn’t care the last few days, it was what it was.
But after this phone call I’m actually seething.
This b***h had the audacity to tell me I don’t give a shit about her problems and I don’t try hard enough to help her when 90% of the relationship was her trauma dumping on me and me being an emotional tampon. It blows my fricking mind how backwards this c**t sees everything.
I’m the bad guy it’s all me.
Just to fricking elaborate a step further, imagine if I made you vacuum my apartment everyday for a year and then I told you I have too much going on to keep you in my life, then I hyu for three days begging you to take my phone call and essentially tell you “you’ve never vacuumed my apartment you don’t give a shit how dirty it is”
Bros I am fricking livid about this. I want to go back to how much I didn’t give a shit like 6 hours ago
Sunken cost fallacy is hardwired in humans on a subconscious level as a way to maintain tribal coherency.
Your biology would rather you feel angry about her than feel nothing about her because that means she's still one of "your people" ergo tribal coherency is maintained.
Sometimes understanding this helps to make conscious decisions to shed those connections.
>Gym going well
>Been fairly consistent
>Trying to work cardio in for fat loss and cause its fun

Haven't had much to complain about recently really. pains aside. Slowly making progress towards my ideal self and compared to how I was a few years ago I'm definitely in a better place. Biggest worries right now is finding a job, and a place to call home. I want to be close to my family, but our city fricking sucks.
Frick it I’m smoking weed tonight. I’m pissed about my ex. I haven’t smoked since 2022. Melatonin, zinc, and magnesium aren’t putting me to sleep I’m that pissy about this.
I was dying recently laying in bed and couldn't get to sleep until I took a penis pill to help relieve pressure in my groin because I probably have bph

Hell yeah brother stufferdb all the way
Call me incel all you want. Mock me for being a virgin. Just know that, in the eyes of the lord, I'm the one who's going to heaven. I followed the word of God and maintained my innocence in the face of temptation. So the normie sexhavers can be all smug now, but wait until judgment day. Jesus is watching, and when the day comes they are at the pearly gates, he's gonna be real disappointed in them.
Anon think about what you are doing in this post. I’m not saying this to argue, but I encourage you to consider what you’ve just posted.
None of us are pure, he's gonna be disappointed in all of us.
That's why he made the sacrifice he did, to save us from our own sin.
That sacrifice should be respected, and we should lead just lives, but we all take advantage of it from time to time.
I'll love him, love my neighbor, try my best, and let him decide what judgments to make
Absolutely spot on.
Welp I am back at college for my last semester. Do not want to be back, as I felt I was finally making gains for myself over break.

But the second I got back on campus had a feeling of melancholy. Like I still have to go through the motions of getting an education for meme degree that I hardly care for anymore. I even had a good convo with a chick on a dating app over break but when I tried to set up a date she went silent. Such a joke. I have begun to realize I simply place too much importance on the opinions and actions of others. Specifically that of women, hell I'll even confess, I spent money on onlyfans for shit even. Thinking about just going monk mode. Try to go on nofap/noporn, focus on improving confidence and looks, achieve goals in writing and art, and finish out meme education. Also reading a lot more and not just consuming pointless content. Thats the dream at least but lord knows how many times I try to change myself and I fall short. Maybe this time?
Thinking about going to AA, I have a problem.

I need to preface this with: I live a great life and have absolutely nothing to complain about. but my brother is, and I'm sorry but, a 28 year old loser. he has selfishly brought a dog into my family household, a big ass husky that acts like a cat. it legitimately cares about no one and demands food all day every day. my household has always been anti dog, but I like dogs. but THIS dog sheds like nothing I've ever seen and is not a very nice. for the past month I have been burdened with nothing but allergies and arguments in the household over this dog. and if it's not noise created from squeaky toys and everyone talking to the dog like it's a baby, it's one of 4 different vacuums my mom is running to keep the place fur free. my inner peace has been stolen from me and my mom as well and I'm losing my mind. I know it's something small but I can't remember the last time I was this frustrated. I'd elaborate more but this is a long enough blogpost
you sound like a female
just directly address what is bothering you and make an ultimatum or hes out
nah my mom said at first she was gonna kick him out, but my parents are good parents. they don't want to make him feel uncomfortable or kick him out because it's their jobs as parents to guide their kids down the right path. we have all addressed him directly and I warned him about this before he made the impulsive decision to buy a $3000 dog (which is all paid in monthly installments cuz he's BROKE). but my brother just doesn't give a shit about others it feels like.
Why don't you have your own place?
I'm 24 and still finishing up school. my brother is 28 and only has a highschool diploma and a basic IT job. THANKFULLY my fiance has her own place so I stay with her on weekends (my job and school are around the corner from my house so I don't live with her until I'm finished with school)
So I’m that guy that’s been posting some Tinder and Hinge screenshots for a few weeks now. This is not a brag because I don’t have much to show off here, but this has been validating for me. I’ve spent much of my 20s in an underemployed, undersocialized, and underachievement phase. Not an incel, though. It wasn’t only when I was 28 when I got my shit together, and I’ve only gained real traction in life at 30. From 24 years old until 30 (I’m now 31), I’ve been invisible to girls. Now in real life and online (I’ve downloaded hinge and tinder 1 month ago) I’ve been getting attention from girls. It’s as if something clicked on my life and I’m loving it. I’m landing dates, I’m meeting girls, I’ve gotten laid twice, and there’s a stream of new girls to meet. For once in over a decade I won’t be alone on Valentine’s Day. These things come normally for others, but it’s new to me and I take this humbly.
There’s some of you out there who will say, “But you have to be a 6’5” gigachad alpha male.” Motherfrickers have the worst attitudes ever and it pisses me off. I’m a 6’ average joe with average joe income that drives a Corolla.
Point is, I’ve made some investments on myself and they’ve paid off. Girls will dig it. Not every one of them, of course, but many will. It’s up to you to go after them.
27yo here, dating and women is the one part of my life I’ve had zero traction in. Zero matches on hinge/tinder, and for the life of me I can’t figure out where to meet single women. Probably an issue with me, though.
What ‘investments’ did you make in yourself anon? Help a brother out?
When I was in high school I made a vow not to end up like the lame 50 year old men at the local VFW I volunteered at. It’s not that they were crippled or disabled that made them lame, nor was it because they were old, but rather they just held on to a single experience in their distant past for a sense of identity. Hear me out. I’m not shaming anybody for being old, or for being in the armed services—that’s not what I’m about. It’s just that these men were so one-dimensional. They were so caught up in their identities as former soldiers, and now veterans (some disabled), that they’ve discarded all other facets of functional life. They’ve held dearly onto the nostalgia of the past, that they’ve stagnated deeply in the present, and in doing so they’ve lost sight of their future. I’ve tried talking to them, I really did. About anything else, really. All they would grumble about was Iraq, of depleted uranium, burn pits, of Arabs, equipment, weapons—but everything culminated to when they were still young and relevant. Mind you all of these men had many decades left to live, yet they were acting so stagnant.
If you’re still in this thread, and if you want to know how any of this relates to ‘self investment’ or your social and dating life, please let me know. I’ll make this go full circle and explain everything. I believe in everything I’ve said and will say.
Now if you’re looking for financial advice, or crypto shilling, or Andrew Hubermann grifting piss off. I’m not doing that
Go for it, I'm curious.

Anyone hate when unattractive women or weird women stare at you? I love when hot blondes stare (my ex was one) but when some weird nerdy b***h that looks like she reads harry potter stare at me its cringe.
i wouldn't act on it but i like the attention
I'm lonely and I think I've lost attraction to my wife. I've gotten decently fit while she's unfortunately gotten the opposite. I'm starting to get female attention and I'm depressed I never had my phase to be a man where. Maybe I'm just a terrible person idk
You are responsible for getting your wife in shape. It's not an easy nut to crack but patriarchy means the responsibility falls to you.

imagine if we just live the same life for infinity like a track on repeat
One gallon of gasoline please.
You guys don't even understand how many opportunities I spat on with women way out of my league. I'm not bragging: the opposite actually. I'm an old, ugly, brainfricked idiot who has lost almost any chance of happiness, and my braindead young brain didn't have any faith in myself back when I had opportunities. I doubted myself when women threw themselves at me. I was even too afraid to hold on to a 10/10 perfect girl for me in every way because I doubted myself.
There was even one opportunity, I don't even know how to explain to you, a girl who was a 33 out of 10. Literally 23 levels above perfection. And I fricked that one up too.
Some nights I think I'm in hell, because nothing is more painful than knowing FOR A FACT that you had perfection right in front of you and you fricked it up, time and time again. What the frick is wrong with me? What beliefs did I allow to poison my brain that I doubted every good thing the world offered me.
I hate myself. I hate the dumbass worthless piece of flesh moronic moronic idiot homosexual moron IDIOT WHO IS WRITING THIS
I started getting a widow's peak about 5 years ago. My hair grows fine everywhere else so I just comb over a bit and it's not too big of an issue. It hasn't gotten worse in the 5 years since I noticed it.
I REALLY want to try gear or at least sarms, but I'm worried of going fully bald before meeting my mate. This conundrum spends more time on my mind and stresses me out more than I would like to admit.

anons, how do you feel about dating single mothers?
I met this chick that's 29 and has an 8yo girl.
She seems pretty cool, and because she takes care of her sick mom, she mostly spends time at work, then daugther and sick mom.
She's been single for a few years now.
I'm 27, and thinking about giving it a try
>captcha: DADW
no
Don't.
4 years from now max her daughter hits puberty and family life gets real fricking weird.
Imagine having several blood children to think about while you wife is looking at you sideways every time your 15yo stepdaughter walks by in the shit women wear these days.
Frick that insanity.
There’s a reason why she’s a single mother, anon. And if it’s not because her husband died, you should avoid her. I hope to God that the kid is at least the same color as both of you as well if you even have the tiniest bit of intention of becoming a step father
you frick them, you do not date them.
anon that's gonna be hell. your whole life will be consumed with helping her with her bazillion issues, and i bet you wont even have that much sex after the beginning.
I poured a bunch of alcohol down the drain and went for a walk in the middle of drinking. Lifted earlier today. I wish I had valium, I do have a bit of weed but it makes me nervous at the moment.
I never really get anything super intense when taking shrooms. Get nice visuals and intense sense of taste but never anything reality challenging.
what if having children redeems you more tickets in some kind of afterlife lottery
Moved in with my fiancee. She's into all the same things I am, goes to the gym with me, looks gorgeous, likes to dress up for me, makes music with me, cuddles and strokes my hair when going to sleep, watches the Sopranos with me or plays CoD, laughs when I call someone a fricking Black person in VC or even joins in...a year ago I was single and lonely and thought I would always be a doomer, and now I'm here. We are all going to make it bros, I'm praying for you guys to find your loves as well

Taking two weeks off lifting to give my grippers some recovery time after strict 5 day schedule over 14 weeks. Using the time to focus on abs and trying out yoga, but it's hard not to feel like I'm pissing away valuable time.
God I both love and hate my life now
I love that my life is now 80/20 grind and leisure time
So for the first time I don’t feel like a complete failure.
My parents are not bothering me every month reminding me how much of a man child i am.
I am the most now IST thanks to my 6x a week routine.
But this bullshit means i can’t play vidya all day anymore, not even on the weekend
Part of me wants to go back relaxing on the weekends again.
But it’s the only way to get a hot emo gf and it’s what makes it all worth it
So I wake up again and do it all over again.
I know I'm fat as frick, but I used to be around 500lbs. I'm down to 275 atm @ 6'1, is there any potential here? I got about 50-60 more lbs to lose.

>is there any potential here?
An ocean of it. I say this as a literal semaglutide shill: if you've managed to get that far on your own, you're gonna make it.
Thank you anon, I wasn't fishing for compliments or anything because I legitimately don't even know what's normal or what isn't because I was 500 lbs. I know I got a decent base to work off of when I lose the rest of this weight and bulk, so I'm not entirely oblivious.
I'm about to do some (ddp) yoga. Wish me luck anons
Is it true that you should not show weakness to your woman? I just lost a competition and wondered if it would turn someone off seeing their boyfriend/husband lose. What if I had a tough day and went home to her? What should I do?
>Is it true that you should not show weakness to your woman?
Yes and there are no exceptions. There's nothing to discuss here. You just never open up to a woman, full stop.
It's one of those things you just don't do, like
>never apologize to a woman
>never argue with a woman
etc.
Alright, thanks frens. Would've a been a depressing revelation had I not found God. He's the only one I talk to now.
I told a woman I want a girly girl and she hung up on the spot.
never show weakness to anyone newbie.
And If you lose in front of her laugh it out. You dont gaf. if the defeat affects you, then you were weak.
Women are the weak ones in every aspect of life. No matter how girl bossy tiktok prostitutes pretend to be, they all know on an instinctual level that they are the weaker, more emotional sex. They look to men to be the stable, reliable leader in stressful and emotional situations. If you ever show any kind of weakness, outside of 3-4 tears when you fricking mom dies or something, she WILL lose respect for you and without respect from your woman, you have nothing from her anymore. Everything that she is to you is based on her respect toward yours masculinity.
NEVER believe a woman when she says “I want an emotional man” - what that actually means is she wants a man that will recognize when she’s having one of her weekly moronic child like tantrums over whatever celebrity got broken up with or whatever Black got rektd by the cops that week. She doesnt want you to cry or be emotional, she just wants you to handle HER over the top emotional reactions and to help her rationalize it as somehow normal.
You have a tough day and want to blow your brains out?
>”how was your day at work, anon?”
>”yeah it was tough. Boss is up my ass, but I have a plan and I’m alright. What’s for dinner?”
end of story.
its OK to accept and talk about your failure while assessing it in front of people
but its not cool to show signs of total defeat
been booze free since new year and want to keep it that way.
guys i caught my mom flirting over whatsapp with some scammer.... i kind of panicked and instantly blocked him when i had her phone shortly but man this fricked me up pretty bad.....not only was she on her best way to get scammed but she also flirted with some mongolian scammer who randomly measaged her on whatsapp full of typos.

I’m not an incel and have been on many dates as well as long term relationships. Was also raised in a proper family and developed a strong ability to sniff out red flags and prostitutes. This girl has had 0 so far. Every girl I’ve gone out with in the past has had a few right off the bat (everyone has something). Gonna keep my guard up for sure, but this one might be it bros. I never expected to win the lottery that is finding a good woman that isn’t a prostitute and/or shitty person nowadays, but this one has a solid chance so far.
As the guy above you you really gotta talk to them and get to know them seeing them in their unguarded state for a month to see who they really are. I ignored the signs because I'm lonely
Oh Ik. And it’s way longer than a month. Give it a year to see who they really are and live with them to see everything. Like I said this isn’t my first rodeo, but overall this is the best girl I’ve ever gone out with.
Same anon as
To add you messed up by being pals with that girl for a month then trying to force her into a romantic date. You go for romance the moment you meet them. You can still talk to a girl for a while if that’s your thing, but you have to make it abundantly clear you aren’t talking to her to be her buddy and even then you will lose a lot of them by doing this. That chick sounded like a basic hoe and your approach usually only works on young virgins or extremely shy and reserved ones like the one I’m dating
Good post. When I was younger, I tried to avoid directly initiating romance with women because I thought I needed to be their friends first. Went on many dates under the impression we were just hanging out. I ignored all the signs that they’d put up that they were waiting for me to make a move and I never did, eventually each one of those girls started responding to me less and less before not responding at all, despite being in constant contact with me in the days leading up to the dates my autistic brain didn’t even know I was on
Exactly. It’s good that you notice this. When you get more experience you begin to sense it and can act accordingly. I texted this girl for maybe 3-4 days before setting up a date and it wasn’t non-stop all day kind of texting. It was maybe 4 texts a day. Once I could tell she was only still texting me because she was waiting for me to ask her out I made my move. You will be able to tell by their messages getting shorter and them texting you just to make you aware that they are still there with nothing to add to the conversation. It’s almost like when a conversation dies when you’re talking in person and nobody has anything else to say. One of you needs to make the move to either formally end the conversation or move on to something else. Also if you’re dealing with a really talkative girl don’t be afraid to make her wait for a reply and go at your own pace. And once the date is set up don’t initiate any conversation until the day of the date when you can hit her up to make sure it’s still happening.
Yeah I wasn't interested in her for a few months and actually did just want to be friends until I started catching feels since she and myself were so similar. So yeah, the biggest mistake was exactly what you said so it's partly my fault for trying to be a friend in the beginning but at the time that's what I wanted.
She just texted me rn that she wants to talk and she regrets what she said and wants to be friends. She was incredibly disrespectful last night and I don't really know how to respond but at the same time I fricked the friendship up
>I don't really know how to respond
You don’t. She already doesn’t respect you and her idea of a friendship will be bumming rides off you, asking for money, using you an emotional outlet for when Chad pumps and dumps her, etc etc. She doesn’t respect you and once a woman loses respect for you, that’s it. The only thing that would change it is if you maxxed somehow and changed your life but at that point, why would you want her in your life anyways
You're right, although I think I'll have to respond saying "I don't want to be friends with someone who disrespects me" since I'm moronic and we work together/ are neighbors (I am moving soon though to her home city which is why it made sense)
Yeah don’t actually just not respond to her, that might be bit of a stretch and honestly would make you look worse.
Just tell her that you felt disrespected and that you will not have that kind of energy in your life and move on.
I sent it, I feel a little better already honestly. The audacity to blatantly ignore me after I said I liked her and was honest with her when she asked is insane
Good job, anon. As a man, respect is everything. Hopefully she learns that from you and changes her attitude. Chances are that she won’t, unfortunately, but there is still a chance. There is also a very slim chance that in you standing up for yourself, it might pull her back in and get her interested, but don’t count on that. If that happens, ball is in your court and you do whatever you want.
Regardless, you did the right thing.
She just unfollowed me on ig so probably not haha but I'm fairly certain her relationship with that guy will fail since in the fall she literally cried in my arms about how he was ignoring her and my dumbass said it was okay
You dodged a bullet of heart ache and stress. Keep your head up and live your life on your own terms. You’ll eventually find a woman who knows her place and knows that you should be respected, not just as a person, but as a man. Modern women lack respect for masculinity these days because of all the boss girl bullshit but good ones are still out there. You’ll find the right one.
Exactly and without respect, as a man, you can never truly love a woman. You have r*dditors who are so afraid of being alone that they will tolerate their gf/wives being uppity c**ts or turn into literal cucks that let their wives frick other guys and pretend like there’s some ounce of respect left in those relationships. Those men are dead inside, guaranteed. Pic rel scored 4 touchdowns in a single game yet he was dead inside because he didn’t have the respect of his wife
Yup. I think people who can’t stand being alone hate themselves hence why they aren’t able to tolerate themselves when there is no one at to distract them and why they engage in self destructive behaviors such as dating abusive people.
thanks frens. I did my longest run this morning and am excited to reach even further heights despite being alone now
Get it anon. Being happy by yourself then finding da girl isn’t just a meme. It guarantees a fulfilling life no matter what happens
Respect is more important than romantic love. Flat out told the chick I’m dating this and she actually agreed. Most American bawds will deny it because they have this delusional Disney fairytale view of the world
Smart move, anon. A lot of girls will keep a fallguy on standby just like she was doing to you.
If you think you feel bad now, imagine thinking you'd picked her up on the rebound only to get dumped the moment she regained her confidence.
What
said. I’d tell her that you don’t want to be friends and to stop texting you. You don’t need to be a dick about it, unless she starts being a b***h. She has no respect for you at all and wants to use you (I doubt she’s even aware of this herself).
>female friend
Why even?
thoughts on hinge vs tinder or bumble?
also I'm happy for you anon
Have been using hinge and tinder for years. Hinge has a lot more relationship material women while tinder has more hot prostitutes that are just good for hookups. Bumble was always a massive failure for me and a waste of time imo. Full of moronic feminists more so than any other app who are just there for attention and don’t know how to talk to guys at all. Also I know you didn’t ask, but Facebook dating is full of prostitutes and single mothers as well (I won’t even hookup with a single mother and seriously ran out of chicks to swipe on within the first 20 when I had my preferences set to 18-25, no kids, and within 50 miles and I live in a major city

Life doesn't matter anymore and it has become very obvious everywhere you go.
You can feel it when you are out in public, no one gives a frick about anything anymore. Even normies are blackpilled husks now.
I go to work and basically just do nothing. I don't give a shit if they fire me, it literally doesn't matter at this point. I'm poor if I'm NEETing and poor if I work full time. This society is pointless.
No community, no property, no families, no future. Where the frick do we even go from here?

So you matched with a fatty. Possibly a 40+ fatty. Also, do it homosexual. Get your degenerate kinks outta your system.
she looks alright but mid 30s, she's just into a lot of submission shit and I'm not a dominant person
call me alice deejay because I'm better off alone
>alright
>doesn't deny she's fat
She's just showing you where 80% of are in terms of a relationship and commitment.
if I had to guess probably bmi of 24 so slight chub
So not even remotely quality. And yet you're b***hing about being alone. Stop it until you actually put effort in.

Bunch of fricking pussified adults playing victim here..
You are a men. You are a men! Stand up and be a men! Act like one!
>you are a men
Men/Man who gives a frick,the guy is right. Allot you here acting like some little b***hes complaining about girls and sheit. Be a man!
Ran into my ex wife.
She left me to party and shit since I wasn't into the nightlife and was firmly against being with someone who was. She wasn't for the longest but when everyone she knew was her opinion changed i guess. Idk.
She went from being all about running with some rock climbing/hiking, to looking like a worn out drug addict. Booze and shit stole every bit of beauty she had.
We talked for a brief moment and she rambled about how she was about to start exercising again and stuff and I could tell she wanted me to say more, but when she chose to sleep with another man she was no longer my wife, and was his problem.
I'm not gonna play captain save a ho, but at the risk of sounding like a homosexual, it fricking hurt to see her like that.
Just a water bartender.
it hurt because deep down you know you are responsible for how she turned out
Not your fault mate, hard to see someone you once loved make wrong decision after wrong decision. You can't change that, it's their life. It may have hurt you in the moment, but just imagine if you were still apart of her life and she is like she is now. Would fricking suck. Chin up.
Man frick that b***h she made her choices. She did this to herself. I understand it may hurt that someone you were so close to and probably fantasized about growing old with is in that condition, but that isn’t your problem. She’s not even the same person you once knew. She did this to herself and you should consider yourself lucky. If she didn’t backstab you, then yeah I could understand a bit more being bummed out that she’s not doing great. This literal prostitute betrayed you though.
Black person rat shit homosexual no he isn’t this hoe cheated she was never anything to him despite what he used to believe. The way some men try so hard to sound machismo and alpha is so sad like women aren’t grown ass adults even if dumb and like a dog.
how is the leader of a household not partly responsible for how members of that household turn out?
You've marked yourself as someone with no actual experience in the field.
Even the strictest households can end up producing black sheep, and that was in times when degeneracy wasn't socially rampant.
But there's no shortage wifeless childless internet alphas to tell us all how it's done.
>Ran into my ex wife.
hopefully you backed up and ran into her again. seriously though, it’s a tale old as time. “muh grass is greener on the other side, i still want to have fun” etc etc. it sucks losing a wife but anon, she wasn’t special. she was only special to you because she was your wife. look at her now and you’ll see what kind of person she actually was and who you thought she was when she was with you was just a facade. just be happy you don’t have kids that have to watch their mother turn into a coke prostitute
consciously observe how you really feel not how you think you are feeling
i guarantee you there is a difference
I’ll have a Blackni please, neat
Got out of bed at 0630 to work out.
I was late.
I’m trying to get up at 0500 but I wasn’t able to today.
Still worked out though! Hitting chest was nice even if i felt rushed in the back of my mind. 45 minute workout.
I think my gf of 6 years is going to end things. It was going so well but she suddenly stopped hugging or kissing me and barely speaks to me now. She says she's just 'depressed' but I know better
when’s the last time you cooked her some eggs?
sorry to hear anon. went through that myself christmas. it won't make it better but try to reach out to friends during this time
>gf of 6 years
jeez
were you together when you were teenagers?
surely by the 3rd year your know whether or not youre gonna marry her
Some people are just like that I guess. One of my aunts was with my uncle for 15 years with 2 kids before getting married and they are extremely traditional in all other aspects. They basically reached the point where they figured they might as well officially get married
Yeah this.
Imagine being a chick and having your mum/sister/friend pity you like the loser you are because you've invested half a decade in a dude that still won't pop the question.
Kind of funny because one of my friends parents recently got married and they are in their early 50's, and they had been together since they were teenagers, have 3 children and 2 grandchildren. They decided to get married now because of some insurance stuff
Bros who live in the northwest, like Washington, Oregon, northern Cali, how is life?
>fun
The nature is what I would enjoy more than anything, I hate club life.
>work
Wages, opportunities, and socially
>cost of living
I know in major cities it would be expensive but how about rural areas? Both talking about apartment rent and owning a house. I wouldn’t want to live in the cities if I could move to these places, I’d want to live in the rural areas around nature.
>dating
I guess this ties into below
>people
By this I primarily mean is it really full of a bunch of moron liberals and you guys have hyper normies? I’m in Miami for reference if you can compare to that. I know many women who moved from cali and they’re all insufferable like genuinely just gross people who I don’t think should be allowed to live near or interact with others, the whole super woke BLM feminist brain dead takes 50 new ducks sucks 200 new dicks drew affoulo variety.
>fitness culture
Self explanatory
Is the nature worth it?
>Miami
Holy shit, another Miami anon nice.
I've visited Seattle to visit a buddy, and shit's weird up there man.
>nature
It's beautiful up there. I've been to the national and the state parks up there, and they're phenomenal. The hiking there is excellent. Don't discount the nature down here though. The kayaking/paddling in South Florida is second to none imo, and I've really fallen in love with the everglades.
>people
>By this I primarily mean is it really full of a bunch of moron liberals and you guys have hyper normies?
>the whole super woke BLM feminist brain dead takes 50 new ducks sucks 200 new dicks drew affoulo variety.
That's how they are in the cities, it's really fricking weird. You can flirt with girls who are at a bar with her bf and he won't do shit about it. I honestly had no idea, and only found out when she pointed him out in the corner sipping on his drink, doing nothing about it. All the stereotypes and memes cannot prepare you for their nonsense, it's something else out there.
I expect the rural areas to be very different, I've seen guys open carrying at restaurants out there.
I can't really give you any perspective on living there though, somebody else will need to explain to you about it.
>kayaking, Everglades
I will admit I’m torn. I fish a lot and I’ve been looking into getting a kayak to take that to the next level, some good spots I bank fish that would be better if I could kayak all over those waters.
But our nature is kind of ass man. For the most part it’s just little nature preserves with paved trails. The Everglades you can’t really explore much off without being next to the highway. It just doesn’t compare to the nature in those states I mentioned where they got mountains, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, actual forests, and still have beaches/coasts and ocean.
>city of cucks
I’m in the camp of not doing shit if someone tries to talk to your b***h, but that’s under the impression she either shuts it down or you cut ties, from what you described it sounds like actual cuckoldry. Just some beta b***h soiboy who would drive you and her to your apartment then wait in his car while you frick her then drive her home and never even question it.
I don’t think I would fit in there, because I’m sure I would be demonized for not acting like those homosexuals or because if I found out a b***h had a man and was just gonna flirt with me and cheat on him in front of his face I would cut her off.
I’ve briefly heard the rural areas are all super conservative but I never got any real elaboration on that. I think your description seems fitting, it’s what I expect. But I do feel like any young woman aged 18-30 is gonna be a liberal moron nutjob. I will most likely remain in Miami for another 5-10 years.
The reason I wanna leave is honestly the COL being fricked up. All I do is fish for fun. In a state with better outdoors I’d do a ton of hiking. Fishing roadside canals and random neighborhood lakes gets repetitive. I’m torn tbqh bro. I love it here, and yet I hate it. The immigrants from other countries and NY, the traffic, the wages, the COL, lack of scenery… but I also love it because hot immigrant b***hes, fishing, crazy stories
I'm not trying to downplay the nature in the Northwest, it's phenomenal and the views absolutely mog the ones here. What is here is unique life in spades, both animal and plant life. It's just something beautiful to witness when you're on the beach at sunset at camp, and you're checking out ospreys catching fish, raccoons scurrying about, and dolphins splashing in the water. You can get real far away from any roads, but you need a boat, whether paddle or motorized to do it, see picrel, though it's only the west side of the park boundaries. If you're going to stick to land, then yeah, it'll suck. I recommend renting a kayak or canoe and trying it out.
>I don’t think I would fit in there
I honestly didn't feel like I fit in either. Besides the expectation of cuckoldry, all of the troon triangle flag and BLM shit everywhere, and incessant virtue signaling is miserable.
>But I do feel like any young woman aged 18-30 is gonna be a liberal moron nutjob.
I wouldn't be surprised if the ones who are like that try to move to liberal moron headquarters cities as fast as they can though.
>but I also love it because hot immigrant b***hes
Yeah, speak a tiny bit of Spanish and they go nuts kek
>I’m torn tbqh bro. I love it here, and yet I hate it.
Yup, I actually moved away for a while, and missed it so much I came back. I got a newfound appreciation for what I didn't before.
>I’ve briefly heard the rural areas are all super conservative
They're conservative as an actual lifestyle. Not gossiping at Church and b***hing about politics like "conservative" suburban and urbanites.
You're expected to live it and not talk about it.
Oh, and don't think you can leave your house unlocked. Criminal shitheels are still going to be around.
hello fellow florida men. born and raised outside orlando and now i bounce back on forth between there and miami. this place is NY/South America v2 and it fricking sucks. it was bad before covid and now it’s absolutely fricking terrible. ive watched my home turn into a sprawl of transplant morons that don’t know shit about shit and treat our beautiful state like the shitholes they came from. none of this is really relevant to your inquires but i just need to get it off my chest to someone who understands.
I feel that bro. I miss the old kitch florida
Dude I was at Anne Kolb like 2 weeks ago, these two dudes started throwing rocks at a manatee because they didn’t know what it was. I was fishing so I was doubly annoyed. The thing came up for air and they go “what is that?” And I ignore think “oh cool some tourists/ transplants will get to appreciate our wildlife and they’ll start to integrate properly. Tehy instantly start chucking the biggest rocks they could. One looked hispanic the other black both had soi clothes and skinnyfat bodies and if they weren’t throwing things I’d think they were gay just from how they looked and walked and behaved. They were definitely homosexuals though. Shit pissed me off so much I’m actually annoyed I didn’t say something I consider myself an butthole for not saying something. What kind of moron who isn’t a child sees some animal they don’t recognize and immediately thinks “well shit I better start chucking rocks at it”
I’ll try to check that out, it’s kind of a far drive though I’d have to plan a bit and try to spend a few nights there if I go, wouldnt wanna do a day trip and do that drive 2X
I think that’s the biggest issue. The transplants and immigrants. I hate the New Yorkers because its always some genuinely goofy shit with them
>AYOOO YOU DONGOTTEM JAWNS HERE B YOU TRIPPIN ON MY MAMA YOU TRIPPIN B THIS SHIT AINT LIKE NEW YAWK IM FROM BROOKLYN BABY
In that imbecilic accent where their only volumes are 8/10 and 11/10 just always shitting on this state and praising New York like frick then go back please. You got the elderly buying up properties, you got these New Yorkers and other transplants buying properties then we got the Hispanic and Haitian migrants. And frick the Hispanics are hit or miss either cool people or annoying as hell thinking they’re hot shit for escaping their 3rd world shithole.
You guys are right, this state is great. But it’s being ruined for the last 25 years by these morons.
From Florida (born and raised 20yrs) and can confirm. The human trash from liberal states needs to be kicked out and sent back to their shithole states.
>you must be a conservative!
No I’m not, but conservatives don’t n general are less revolting and don’t ruin everything they touch
As someone who moved to Yakima, Washington for a job out of college

Not bad, if I want to stay I could legitimately see myself able to afford a house which I wasn't expecting, restaurants/takeout is expensive and I think that's the only effect of high minimum wages I've noticed
>Dating
I'm 24, and Yakima has a mix of age and brain drain. Since there's no college here, most of the educated people my age move 2 hours away to Seattle or 3 to Portland, so meeting people has been really tough

This is probably the highest concentration of Latinos in the PNW, we're at ~45% Latino here, but many people are very nice
>Fitness culture
About the same as other places I've lived, some people go way into it, some people couldn't care less, theres a decent amount of people who care a lot about hiking/trail stuff here though
>Fitness culture
>About the same as other places I've lived, some people go way into it, some people couldn't care less, theres a decent amount of people who care a lot about hiking/trail stuff here though
From what I understand, the fitness culture is more of a carryover from the hiking culture over there
a bit of rambling but I spent part of the day reflecting on my mistakes of the past 2 years. I'm a porn addict, overweight and not motivated.
feel kinda of a looser because I'm 27 and I was thinking of going to a uni at night just to make some friends and get a piece of paper. Giving it a second thought I realized it was moronic as I already have a good start of a career in software engineering and I should focus on fixing my addictions instead of coping.
my bro helped me out over the past month and I've been going everyday to the gym with him. Still a fat ass but starting be positive again.
Ima year older than you and same shit I’ve wasted my 20s.
>ages 17-20
Had my shit in order. Stopped being fat. Had a job. Was in classes. Had friends. Good body, lifted for a while. Ditched porn and had healthy moderation with fapping.
>21-28
Coomer, lost gains, got fat again, dropped out, gave up on the other career I was working towards
Last year I formulated a new plan and I’ve made progress but I’m still fricking up. I know exactly what to do. In 12 months I could almost effortlessly be
>lean again
>have gains again
>have a job and savings again
>be working towards getting into new career field
>probably have a GF again or at least be in a position to start dating
>be able to seriously plan moving out
Upside, I spoke to a manager at a store and introduced myself I may have a job. Just a part time wage cuck, but it fills the gap in my resume and would enable me to either get a better job or work 2 jobs all of 2024 thus being out of the house more, getting savings up, being more active and helping me lean up faster. It’s step 1 for me anyways.
hey mate its one step at a time.
I'm not at the same situation as you but I can empathize. I kinda gave up on getting a GF for now, probably better being productive before getting a girlfriend.
The fricked up part is I somehow got a gf at my lowest after I gave up on it. It didn’t last long but it happened. Now I’m trying to push and discipline myself to accomplish my goals with no real motivation aside that I think maybe I’ll be a little happier. Not even pussy or a GF is a motivation because I somehow managed to get a hot b***h/10 at my absolute lowest a few years ago. Shits fricked man, don’t even mean to complain. Just saying what could have been a massive driving force behind me is no longer.
But yeah, one step at a time. Get this job, continue getting health back in order, get second/better job, get savings up, get into better job/actual career. It should only take me 12 months to be like 75% of the way to making it again.
Went on a 10km hike on the weekend, half way through my knees on the side started hurting. I've had some stinging pain once in a while this winter. Not so much pain during lifts, but noticeable during cardio.
That spooked me and makes me worry about grinding my joints to shit. I've been putting it off for ages, but I'll start my cut tomorrow. Maybe it's the cold and some inflammation, maybe the years of being a fatass have finally caught up to me. Either way, It's time to lose the weight and show off what the gym has given me.
Losing weight definitely won't hurt. Also joints need to adapt to stress the same as every other part of your body.
If knee pain persits look into inlays for your shoes, most people nowadays have fricked up feet.

Champagne, please. Today I felt my glutes fireing for the first time of my middle-aged life. I always thought it was impossible because of orthopedic/neurological birth defects but all I needed was a good physiotherapist. I may or may not grow something of an ass eventually but I don't care: I'll drink to the newly acquired skill!
I told my girlfriend she's fat. It's surprisingly difficult to tell someone something that obvious. I'm afraid I'm going to have to end things with her because I just don't know if she has it in her to believe in herself.
all the girls i like have tattoos
why do they have to ruin their bodies like that getting real sick of this
>why do women x
The answer is always attention
Now I'm fit, but I have nothing to live for. A year algo I was dating the woman I thought was my soulmate and making money with crupto. I lost her and I'm ruined now. I'm unironically thinking about becoming a criminal, I can't wageslave after knowing true happiness
redbull vodka, 12 cl
frick, i hate some people at work, especially some of the young around 21-4 who have like 1-3 years of experience who believe they know everything and the world.
fricking hell had this girlboss that have been in our team for 6 month, still haven't done a single ticket and does everything else instead of our job. I am supposed to teach her shit today because we really need people that can do our job due to lack of staff, so the first thing that happens is that she is really non corporative, when I tried to show her where to find she she snapped "I am actually an expert on this", ok like you have never been inside this system before, I don't think that you know where to find everything for the first time. Ok, test your rights - ok you have none because you haven't applied for them. ok....
ah man, and it didn't stop there. Then she starts talking about "how she got other stuff to do and that is much more important directly from the top!!!". ok, do you even want to be here doing this? I asked because she obviously lacks interest in what we are doing, or she doesn't know what our role is, or our work. "yes of course I am interested" ok, really.
I've had new people before but this is ridiculous. Don't know because she is a woman, or if she is just super hostile due to me being a man telling her what to do/feminist damage in her brain or what the hell is going on. She is toxic with crappy social skills.
Sometimes this like of business takes really out my cynical and hatefulness of humans.
Women in the workplace were a mistake, especially the ipad kids who are told by boomers they are so smart and gifted because they can muscle memory their way through scrolling goybook and tiktok at the same time

your post made me delete all my shit of my hd
thanks
Remember that's its a long process and a relapse doesn't reset your progress.
Just need to vent real quick. I've been feeling small and fatter lately even though I've been sticking to my schedule. It's most likely due to my worsening mental state but it doesn't help either that my shoulder is now hurting for some fricking reason after waking up. It hurts to do pushing exercises even though the last time I did a push day was Friday. The last couple of weeks have just been frustrating with setbacks occurring one right after the other. I just needed to get this off my chest and keep moving forward like I always have. Thanks for lending me your ear.
i am a total piece of shit that betrays the people that love me the most.
i am a horrible friend and a horrible son, a horrible brother and a horrible person.
i legitimately had nothing good to say about me outside of my physical apperance when I was writing down my good qualities.
everything i have gained and done has been through lies and nothing i have i deserve.
Stfu and check em
I'm good. Had 11.5 units of alcohol tonight.
Yesterday I realized I'm an alcoholic when I woke up with the shakes. My friends went clubbing without me because I was too shitfaced to join after pre-drinks. They took some MDMA and went out, I passed out with the bottle.
Today I confirmed my suspicion about being an alcoholic by drinking a bunch again; this time on my own.
TL;DR: I was morbidly obese, got in shape but didn't land any pussy. Finished my CS undergrad and started working full-time as a junior developer. I hate my job and am drinking because I feel miserable.
How tf do I escape this vicious circle. I hate my job and want to quit, but I raked up a ton of college debt and don't know what to do anymore.
At this point I just want to be a NEET and hit the gym every day once again. It wasn't getting me anywhere but I felt happy.
>I was morbidly obese, got in shape but didn't land any pussy
lmao same as here and am becoming an alcoholic and druggie.
its so weird since i can notice myself but i just dont care.
It's crazy huh. At times I wonder how I ever managed to have the discipline to get my shit together, only to let go of it so easily.
i still havent let myself go due to the fact that I am abusing adderall, but yeah legit something broke inside me when I realized that for all my effort for all my dedication some skinnyfat normie was more of a desirable partner than me.
turns out muscles cant fix social autism.
>turns out muscles cant fix social autism.
the only thing that fixes that is practice. normal people go through the uncomfortableness of that when they are children, we as autists don’t have that luxury. the only thing that works is constantly putting yourself i. social situations until you understand how to navigate them.
shit sucks cause anxiety and autism go hand in hand like beer and coke
Yup. I went full autism on the lifting because I sincerely thought it would fix my life. Figured out the hard way that once again, lifting doesn't cure autism.
My slippery slope only started recently so I'm not completely out of shape yet, but I definitely understand now how people can go fit to fat in no time.
I'm probably gonna quit my job. The financial struggles are real, but this job is actively killing me, so I would rather be panhandling sober than working full-time as an addict.
get a waiter job it helped me when I was a teen to actually build some social skills and to lower my anxiety till today when i have none, its helped me a lot in my career but outside of that i am just a fricking plant with nothing to say.
yeah I am not even afraid anymore just numb, it isnt like i have fear of conversation i just cant think of anything to say so everything becomes a long drawn out silence.
It used to kill me to see the happiness and joy in a womans face die when she realized how utterly inept I was in talking.
anyone else feel like youre waiting for something that will never happen?
like a mix of frustration and hopelessness
I just got dumped over text, we'd been seeing each other for 3 months. She's the one that wanted to make it serious so I kind of just feel played tbh. I'm tired
Get some rest, man. You’re gonna need it for the gym tomorrow
Tito's vodka, neat.
I'm the martial arts quitter that lurks these threads from time to time.
I've decided that if I don't go back to the gym and confront my old training partners and coach by the end of this week, I will leave IST for good. I rely heavily on this app for insight beyond what an autistic like me could figure out on his own. But it's an emotional crutch, a cope. It's not good for me. I'm scared shitless, but the regret is literally going to kill me at this point.
What's your story?
I ghosted my coach and gym a month before a tournament I had signed up for. It's been months since I've spoken to anyone there, gained mad weight, haven't even touched a heavy bag or sparred.
Update: I actually called my coach last week and wished him luck for his next fight. He asked when I was coming back and I hesitated before saying that I wasn't 100% on whether or not I'd fight again.
Always been a punk, and I've done this multiple times. It's been a stain on my integrity and the shame fricks with me every day.
>Tldr: anon is a b***h who quit
Can relate too well. I'm gonna try to get into Judo long term. Might even sign a year's worth on a check just to force ne to go.
Why do you have to fight?
Trust me, it's overrated and won't fix any of your problems.
Just water, thanks.
I went out Saturday and got fricked up while on vacation at the beach by myself and got arrested for public intoxication. I'm such an idiot I don't even know what to do with myself. I've scheduled therapy and have decided to become sober. I was blackout from the bar to waking back to my place and some point during that the cops arrested me.
My fiancee is very upset and doesn't want to talk to me. I don't have anyone else to talk to. Drinking has been an on and off problem for me, and I've had to accept that I really fricked up and need help.
I can kind of relate, I quit weed December 2022 and last night smoked two bowls. Got high as frick. Slept for 10 hours. Woke up regretting it, had the same issues I did when I was abusing that shit all day every day headache and fricked sinuses.
I know weed isn’t alcohol and technically non addictive. But I did use it daily for so many years as a cope and I do relate to the regret.
Do whatever you have to do to get better man. Therapy, AA, whatever. I know if I liked being drunk or I could actually black out it would be a problem for me. Sobriety is one of the most important pillars to health and happiness and growth imho.
Let your wife cook off, give her space and she will come around faster most likely b***hing you out initially. In the mean time research therapists and rehabs if you think it’s necessary. Show her with actions you’ll overcome this and do better. If she’s mad, that’s good she gives a shit and sees potential to do better in you. Don’t let her down.
Thanks, man. I'm doing a lot of soul searching to figure things out. I haven't been a good person and I'm feeling pretty numb and depressed. I've been arrested before for a DUI a number of years ago and cleaned things up and stayed sober for awhile after that, thought I had reworked my relationship with alcohol, but clearly I was wrong.
I've done AA before, but covid sort of folded that and I wasn't very committed. Maybe I thought I didn't need it. Maybe I'm a pussy. Either way, in thinking back on things, I haven't had a positive experience with alcohol in awhile, it hasn't been enhancing my social experiences or life and I just need to accept that it isn't for me.
>TFW cursed to only be attracted to women that turn out to be lesbians
Bought a new car. Holy frick insurance is expensive. When I started driving less than a decade ago it was $60 to insure. Then I got down to low $40 before covid. Rocketed up during covid to $70. Now I am sitting at a $180 premium and the only thing that changed was I got ONE speeding ticket.
SEEK CHRIST
I was looking through some old pictures last night and I found one I had taken of myself about 2 years or so ago, just mere months after I started working out, and I can't believe how good I looked. But about 1 year ago I stopped lifting because I just didn't have the time and energy anymore, and I thought my job and bodyweight could help me keep the muscles I had. But today I woke up at 3 AM, went downstairs and looked myself in the mirror and compared it to how I looked in that picture and it made me so fricking depressed. I've very clearly lost a lot of muscle and mass, my midsection is like 2/3 the width it used to be and my chest barely sticks out from my torso anymore. How can I let something like this happen to me?
I have renewed my gym membership now and I'm going back there as soon as they open
I’ll have a double shot of well whiskey, please
I don’t really know what to say about this. I recently transferred to a new place of work. Before leaving, my coworkers gave me gifts and genuinely heart warming testament to how I helped them and turned the department I worked in around. I should be happy, but I can’t help but feel guilty. I’m not at all what they say I am. I’m a sad drunk and I let a lot of people down whenever I’d burn out and fizzle away. I look at my friends and I can’t at all fathom why they’d want me around. I’ve been this way for years, but this is the first time it’s ever been presented to my face just how much value people place in me and it just makes me feel so sad and hollow. Sorry to blogpost, I can’t tell this to anyone I know.
love of my life who I want to spend the rest of my life with who had a brutal self harm issue in the past relapsed recently. I don't know what the frick to do. i don't know how to go to the gym after this I don't know how to sleep I don't know how to do anything. I don't want to lose her or even be forced to confront the fact that I might have to reevaluate this relationship if things don't improve. I want to get so high I'm comatose, but I can't anymore as I used to abuse it and I'm months clean. I wish things were different and I wish nothing would ever hurt her again
