What’s on your mind, IST bros? For me, it’s my oneitis having a boyfriend and going to the beach on Memorial Day yesterday. Hit up Mr. Morgan pretty hard after seeing the Instagram pictures. I love that girl so goddamn fricking much.

      That’s not true. We were flirting with each other a lot a couple years back when I was still in high school and then Covid came and ruined it, along with my graduation. We talk every now and then

    I've been with my gf for nearly 5yrs and people occasionally ask half jokingly when we're getting married. I never really want to get married, but it's not really something we've discussed, i feel like nowadays it's fully just assumed you get married. The most we've talked about it is that i said if we got married I'd need a prenup. I still have no interest in getting married though, feels like such a scam

    My coworker has a boyfriend but hits on me all day on shift. Given the situation I want it to stop but can't point out her behavior without being an butthole.

    Maybe she doesn't mean to do it, but its stuff that I wouldn't tolerate a girlfriend doing to coworkers. Like she'll come in from unloading something outside and grab my hands or arms or whatever "Look anon my hands are cold! But you're always so warm" or she'll stand beside me when I'm at the standing desk and lean into me, or grab me and pull me to join her in whatever task she's doing.

        I honestly didn't know for weeks. And when she did tell me it was kind of by accident. When she hits on me I change the topic of conversation to her boyfriend ie; "Well if you need that fixed I'm sure your boyfriend should be willing to help you out. He probably has some tools kicking around the garage he can use as well". She doesn't like that though.

    Found out that ex cheated on her current boyfriend she's living with. For some reason I am jealous of that other dude.
    Over the last few months she had shown up on my door drunk a few times, but I was either out or asleep and she didn't bother to call or buzz in.
    I was on vacation last week, when that apparently happened, and she knew it. She even messaged me with "when are you getting back" on what I presume was the day when she cheated.
    God dammit.

      This is happens a lot when your body changes quicker than your mind can adjust to it. Your body has literally and without doubt changed, for the better.

    Crabs in the bucket. I’ve lost weight, and am getting physically healthier but my family just makes me feel bad about it. Like I’m competing with them. Which is bizarre. When they lose weight I’m nothing but smiles and encouragement.

    I lashed my mom if she could tell I lost twenty pounds in them last few months. She responds with, “You still got a belly, you need to get a six pack for it to count”.

    Like wtf mom. My immediate thought was I’d have to lose an additional 8-12% body fat to get to that point of being cut, so what the hell are you even talking about. And this is my mom, I’m so fricked. I’m never going to have a healthy image of myself with her, which is brutal because, it’s my fricking mom.

    I hit the gym for two hours and did another two in boxing yesterday and I felt so fricking alone and tired I just sat in my room and cried after like a b***h. Why won’t I ever be good enough for my own fricking mom?

      That's rough bud, my family is similar. Gotta stop accepting the negative energy at some point. I would get called fat when I bulked in college and so I just started telling them outrageous weight goals. "Yeah I'm fat now and I'm bulking to 362 to compete in powerlifting". Every time they said something I'd up the number. Made it into the 500s before they stopped talking shit.

      I miss her perfect body, the great sex and the emotions, but the amount of confidence, reliability and attachment the "boring" one gives me, granting me absolute savety and peace of mind just trumps the fading charms of a woman.

    Went on a date with a girl for the first time in a long while.
    She told me she likes fitness and working out and that she lost almost 70kg the past 2 years and is at a "normal" weight now.
    She is only 24 but still, I was impressed but also a bit concerned, she's still relatively young but does your body even recover from such extreme weightloss?
    Not sure if I could be attracted to a deflated girl to be absolutely honest.

    I quit drinking 3 weeks ago.

    I think about destroying a bottle of rum on my couch every moment of every day.

    My gains have gone from mild muscle increase to enormous results.

    Because of this, I will feel even more guilty about drinking when I inevitably fall off the wagon.

      some people like wagecucking. those people are usually normies. I can't stand it and never could. I escaped from the wage cage last year and can't imagine myself ever going back. Unfortunately, being an office drone is the highest pay for the least work and it's hard to find more profitable opportunities, so if easy money is what you're after it's hard to do better. if I could do it over again though I'd pursue some career that didn't involve ever filling in an Excel spreadsheet like yoga teacher or personal trainer. Anything but sit in a cubicle for decade after decade

      I got with a younger girl (17) when I was 23. This is what happened to me. She was beyond head over heels for me for 2-3 years. Eventually she started exploring life more (partying, drugs, new girlfriends) and she eventually decided she 'just needs to be on her own right now'.

          Women these days earn their own bread, they no longer need a man unless they want to start their own family. They don't feel attraction to a man in the same way a man feels attraction to a woman (wants to rip their clothes off if they didn't frick for a few days) and thus when the honeymoon period of hormone rollercoaster rides wears off there is little to no incentive for an independent woman to stay in a relationship with a man. It's simply boring to her and regular sex/companionship is not a good motivator for a woman to stay monogamous in the same way it is for a guy. She can have in fact more attention outside of a relationship, and more freedom and 'travel' and ride the carousel until she gets bored.

          Men like fertility, women like resources. When a woman becomes capable of providing for herself, the need for a male companion is 0. That is until they want kids, which is not until 30+ for the modern woman.

          The smart ones will hop off the carousel a couple years early whilst they still have their looks and youth and get a quality guy. Many stay too late until their youth is gone and no good man wants them anymore.

    I'm a fricking coward. Any sense of danger or uncertainty paralyze me. I went on a trip this weekend, and we did some rock climbing and cliff jumping. Whenever there was a long fall or dangerous move, I got into my own head and froze. I bailed on a route that I was more than strong enough to complete because I was afraid of the fall. I couldn't calm myself down and almost had a panic attack. And I can't seem to stop comparing myself to my friends who are are unafraid or at least mentally strong enough to push through it.

    I had a girlfriend for a year and she’s dead. I loved her more than anyone I ever knew and I miss her. I dream of her hugging me and the way she smells. I’ve never felt so lonely in my entire life without her. I broke up with her but we still talked. She had a new boyfriend so I thought she was better and it was my destiny to make her healthy mentally. She was always a person that no matter the time passed I could talk to her for hours and reminisce and she really knew me. She died extremely young and she really never got to live at all. I’ve been eating more and I know she wouldn’t want that so I’ll try to get back on track. We both had opposite eating disorders (she was annorexic and I was a binge eater) and until she died we were both doing well. I’ll try to live through her ideals and act more human. I want to live a life to make her proud and see her one day. Once I find out how she died I’ll be at peace

We still chatted as friends and I kept tabs on her through other means and then she died. Her death is a lot more upsetting than I expected. She was important to me even if we barely talked. She’s the only person I would trade my life for and I was sure I loved

I'm nervous because I've been emotional since right before the break up and feeling lethargic.

    I've lost 35lbs since February doing CICO and PPL, I'm still fat, but its been good progress and I'm feeling better about my mental health too. I'm hoping to drop another 10lbs by July.

    Found out today that the qt at my judo dojo that I was into already has a boyfriend. I kept myself checked all the time so I couldn't fall head over heels for her so it isn't so bad, but it's a weird feeling still, I feel it will disappear in a day or two. I can't help but feel that I don't deserve nobody's love and that I'll never find a romantic partner, even the idea of having a gf is completely alien to me.

    Sorry for the homosexualry, just as I said I'll be back to normal in a day or two, just had to get this off my chest.

    >dating gf for 2.5yrs
    >still not sure if I want to marry her
    I feel like I should know by now, and I feel guilty for not knowing. She seems ready. I'm happy with her, but something just feels off sometimes, and the idea of forever is scary.
    Shouldn't I be head over heels, absolutely positive? Or is it normal to be very anxious at the thought of marrying someone?

      I'm married for 6 years and happy so far together. Think about these questions

      >Is she in debt? If you marry her, her debt becomes your debt. Money is important.
      >Speaking of, is she responsible with money? Are you responsible with money? Most couple fights are about finances.
      >If she asks you something like "does this dress make me look fat?" what do you answer? Marriage material is someone you're comfortable enough with to tell her "yeah, you've been neglecting your health."

            Anon, stop. STOP. Poly chicks are on the dick carousel. It's basically swinging with extra steps. The latter at least has set rules that all parties basically agree to and is something that's established in advance before anything happens. Poly behavior is whimsical, fleeting, and incredibly self destructive to anyone who catches the feels and thinks naively like you do. A poly chick is NOT introverted. That's literally an oxymoronic, since being poly means you're after multiple partners beyond your own to either engage in soft or hard intimacy. Grow a pair and either cut out your heart and only frick her or break it off so you it doesn't eat you alive. If you speak the words of love, you will implode because she's not going to reciprocate. She's not interested in love. She already has someone TO love and that person AIN'T you.

                homosexual, that makes no sense. Then she's not poly and you're projecting that shit onto her. In which case, you need to probably break it off with her anyway and reevaluate yourself in how you deal with women in your life--because that's some insecurity shit and it needs to be addressed. Its one thing if you just rail tinder/bumble bawds as a pass time. It's something completely different if you start pushing your baggage onto her and then use it as an excuse to b***h about it here.

    Im so lost bros, im so fricking lost in life. I dont know what to do. Every aspect of my life is so troublesome... And I know its like that because I try to find happines in others.

    Bros. Whats the secret to focus on yourself and caring about you only? I have these friends, Omar and Tonny, these frickers treat girls like what they want. The have gfs all the time, they seem soo fricking happy. I JUST WANT TO BE HAPPY TOO. why its so fricking hard. Its not about being some Chad with 10/10 genetics, they are the most 5/10 guys out there. But they are so fricking happy only caring about themselves.

    And look at me. Trying to be friends with my ex gf, because she is the one that texts me from time to time, because Im so alone no one writes me asking how I am, if im good, nothing. Even she has stopped being "friendly" with me. FRICK. Why I need someone else to feel good and happy? Fricking why? I dont want to look that the loner loser, I have friends that like me, family that love me, there are girls that like be, but just that. I dont have a single deep connection with someo, and hurts me so damn much that I want that connection. These connections make me happy, and thats why I want to stop caring about others.

    Im crying here. What we need to be social creatures? Frick. How do I become selfish and find pleasure only from me. How to do that. Help me

      you first have to accept that some of these issues are out of your control, while some other ones are manageable. I would say the first step is starting a journal. Write down what you define as happiness, what your short and long term goals are (start monthly, yearly, 5 year, 10 year), and possible seek therapy if you can afford it or have it covered by your employer/school (lots of schools are offering Timely Care, you get 12 free sessions via telephone per semester, while most employers worth a shit are offering some form of mental health services). If you don't leave your home/room, start leaving it and walk at the local park or trail; get some fresh air and appreciate what's around you, as well as appreciate all the emotions and things you've gone through. It isn't healthy to wallow in negativity, do something that keeps your mind off the negativity like volunteering, work for Instacart, building something, anything to keep you from staying in your thoughts. I would recommend volunteering as you kill two birds with one stone: you're helping yourself and others, while meeting new people and potentially new friends.

      also, accept that you can only make yourself so happy. You will need other people in your life, but how they impact your life will vary. They don't need to be there 24/7 physically, but a call or text does help. They aren't responsible for your wellbeing, you are, but you need to gradually figure out how much you will allow them to be in your life and impact you.

    Bros, I've got a particular conundrum that's been gnawing at me. I've got this passion projects of writing novels, but ever since I tried to turn it into a career, all the magic's gone. Even making a crap ton of cash between two careers (military and independent cybersecurity) at the same time, along with lifting and casual music and whatever can't seem to bring my mind into focus — I just can't get my mind off the money.

    How do I stop calculating my life? I want to be free of myself, of my own calculations. But every single time that passion flares, a mediocre rationality tears it apart. How do I get back there, back when I could create with my own two hands?

        The carbs part is real, but I get a lot of it from milk, juice, and fruit instead of entirely from stuff like pasta and bread.
        It's not to say I don't do well on protein or fat either, in fact I still get a little more fat in my diet than I should but I'm shooting for the extra carbs because I'm so active.

          Keep up the fruits and veggies. You don't really need all those carbs just because you are active. If you were a marathon runner or distance athlete, then a carb heavy diet might help endurance.
          IMO tone back the diet and focus on eating a slight surplus and slowly add as you see fit. Your body will adapt over time and hopefully you won't shit your guts out or feel bloated all day.

    Sometimes I wake up really sad in the morning, despite having almost everything: a really good salary, WFH, girlfriend... but I don't have friends of my own and my body fitness is still subpar.

    The problem basically is that I'm really competitive but my 20s were hell for me: It took me many years to get my degree and during that time I basically isolated out of shame, to the point of only interacting with my gf and a really small group of friends. The sheer amount of anxiety I had made me unable to stick to a fitness routine and full of anxiety that didn't let me sleep and recover properly. Now that I'm in my 30s, that came to bite me in the ass and I don't have friends of my own. Almost all of them are more connected to my gf and in a scenario where we break up I would lose 90% of them easily.

    Try to make friends in your 20s, anons. Don't make the same mistake I did because later it's going to bite you back. Right now my girlfriend is having breakfast with some of her female friends and here I am, alone, thinking about how I don't have a group of friends of my own to do the same.

    Dry beer and a vodka, my man.

    I finally changed the gym to a better one. Previous closed at 8 pm and put away the free weights because of corona. New one is 24/7 and has free weights. Feels amazing. First time actually feeling pumped. Tomorrow will be my running routine again, I'm really hyped.

    Also, my gf of four months has to go to her home country for six months. A visa thing. I promised her I will visit her and her family in September or October, the flight tickets aren't that expensive. And she ticks all the boxes for knowing she'll stay faithful. But I'm still worried that we'll become alienated if we can't see each other for 3+ months. Am I worrying to much? How do I make that shit stop? We're head over heels for each other and have seen each other every weekend since we met, no exceptions. And no fights yet, not even a small disagreement. She loves sports, can handle my bantz and dish out some herself. I really think I wanna put a ring on it someday, but this temporary long-distance thing worries me such much, bros.

      Women are neurotic, sure. But you're the one who had zero respect for himself and was a continual fat frick through the most crucial point in life. That's literally your fault you moron.

    Yep. Feel the same way. Mine left me for the sole purpose of wishing to remain being a prostitute. Poly type girl but i’ve literally never felt as loved before as I did with her.

    Working 50-60 hour weeks and living in the gym has been my only relief from my dark thoughts

      Frick. Are you me? My ex showed me what being loved is. But she is a moron "open mind free spirit girl" she could say how much she loved me and then talk about someone she is in love for 7 years.

      Listen king. We dont miss these girls, we miss being loved. And I hope you and me to find a girl that can show us again what is to be loved witout all these fricking prostitute mental gymnastics

    Recently I thought about how strange it is that, every month at almost the same time, I get depressed for no reasons whatsoever.

    Suddenly I just look at my life, my goals and don't see the endgame anymore, nor the purpose to keep going and working hard to achieve it.

    I've read about "man menstruation" or "irritable male syndrome" and will start writing down everytime it happens, the subject and how/when it disappeared to see if it's a cycle or not.

    Anon, do you also get those times when suddently everything is meaningless/angers your for nothing ?

      Op here. Yeah that happens to me constantly. I tried playing football for a year in my freshman year of high school, and it went fricking terribly. All the guys on the team were all friends with this one homosexual in elementary/middle school who bullied the shit out of me so they already had an awful perception of me as a person. Nobody taught me the playbook or just the fundamental thing about the sport, my coach just made sure all the starters did their job and me and this one autistic kid were brushed off cause we were the only new guys on the team, everybody else had been playing and well known by everybody in the school district since pop Warner. I was socially awkward as shit and bullied like crazy so I skipped like 4 months worth of school and tried to kill myself.

      That was the lowest point in my life and every now and then I’ll get like that for a few days or a week at most. I’m bigger than literally anybody I know now so that’s good. I remember back in my senior year I would walk in the hallways, see someone from the old football team who was still looking the exact same like 140 soaking wet I would just look at them and start obnoxiously laughing and pointing at them with my group of friends. I’m glad I started lifting

    Made out with a girl about two weeks ago, so just a virgin rn. My friend's gf is setting me up with a girl that is pretty cute and I'm looking forward to that. Changed my lifting routine after plateauing on beginner programs. Starting to see changes in my body after lifting for 4 months. Life's pretty good rn anons, I'm turning it around, hope it's the same for you. WAGMI

      If you're already at the point where the girl knows how big your dick is, it doesn't matter. You're both naked, it's about to happen anyway.

      hum, anon, i'm sorry to say that, but, not all girls are sizequeen, and something, it's just too big to not be carefull about it ( like using a lot of lube and foreplay, you can"t do quickies on a whim because someone might get hurt )

      sure on the paper it's looks very nice to have such a glorious dong to play with, but honestly you never had trouble fitting all this inside a vegana ? ever ?

    Around two months ago or so i made a post saying that i have been struggeling with depression for 8 years. Someone told me to see a doctor, and for some reason until that point i never even thought of it as an option. So i called my doctor (this was actually the hardest part, it took me 2 weeks of constantly dialing the number and hanging up again before i managed to finally make that appointment). A week ago i had that appointment and i know it sounds stupid, but i felt so much better after just saying out loud how i feel and why i feel like this. She seemed like she genuinely wanted to help me and cares about my mental health. At the end she told me to come back in a month to get some blood tests done. I don't really know what is going to happen after that. But to think that i felt like absolute shit for 8 years and was so close to killing myself so many times, and just talking about it took so much pressure of my chest. For the first time after many years i am making gains again and gaining weight. I always thought therapies were bullshit and don't work, but now i am looking forward to my next appointment and am hoping she prescribes me a therapy and not some drugs.

      Well done anon. I hope you get better. On top of what your doctor recommends, I would recommend you to spend more time out in the sun, looking at the blue sky, every day. I don't know the cause of your depression, and this might not help, but you lose nothing if you do it, and for a lot of people this helps.

    >your reward for doing a good job is more work
    I’m doing so great at work my boss is now burying me with it. Lovely thing when you’re starting to tackle the first thing on your to-do pile, and your boss walks in& hands you more work. And it all should be done right now or yesterday. And it’s all top priority and needs to be done immediately.
    I need a vacation but every time I go on vacation my boss yells at me for being a lazy bastard who wants to take vacations instead of work.

    My wife just went out to frick her boyfriend (my ex best friend). They've been doing this for 2 years already. She is constantly on the phone chatting with him, neglecting our children, while I'm busy at work. The thing that troubles me the most is that recently they started going out in public, and someone that knows us will eventually see them. We live in a small city, and if someone who knows us sees them, everyone will know I'm a cuck. If that happens, I will have to leave her. I would have left her long time ago if it weren't for my kids. I really don't want them to grow up without a father, I want to be there for them. The highest value of my life is being a good father. This is hard enough already, but if other people find out, I don't think I'll be able to go through this anymore, and I'll have to divorce her. The kids will have to end with her as that's the law in my country. I just can't get over the fact that I'll have to break my daughter's heart by leaving if that happens.

    How do I make social gains? I'm so goofy and awkward. I don't know how to be mature or adult.

    I also have my family (mostly mother) pushing me to be friendly with my sisters husband but I just don't want to be. Nothing personal. I'm just not feeling him. He's nothing like me anyway.

But rest assured I remembered I'm not bi ch made and said screw it I cut my drinking in less than half and I feel positive effects,I work out harder than ever and also I feel better because now I look at it and a learning experience I made some mistakes which I'm not going to repeat and either she'll get back or I'll find some better, WAGMI

    I am once again staring down uncertainty. Several years ago, I dropped out of premed, forfeiting a large athletic scholarship and destroying most of my relationships in the process, including the girl whom I was set to be married to after graduation. After a period of unproductive listlessness, I joined the Air Force as a mechanic. I'm not sure if it was quite what my naive 20-something self had in mind, but it was an adventure nonetheless. An awful, drunken, boisterous adventure.

    My initial contract is set to expire in the next couple of months; I'll most likely be offered a 25 year p̶e̶r̶i̶o̶d̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶i̶n̶d̶e̶n̶t̶u̶r̶e̶d̶ ̶s̶e̶r̶v̶i̶t̶u̶d̶e̶ contract extension. I'm experiencing similar feelings of apprehension that I felt after my first year of university - do I run from what's comfortable to chase a half-formed notion of the 'good life?' During my last tour, I applied to an english and creative writing program at the university I left. I found out last week that I was accepted. I want to go, more than anything. I've always wanted to write.

    This would also mean going home. Seeing my family, the familiar streets, halls, professors, coaches; enduring the whispers and jeers. 'He had so much potential..'

    To stay in the Air Force would be to prolong my fantasy of self-made manhood, to remain miserable just to spite myself. Going home would be to admit that I was wrong, that everyone else knew best. I'm not sure what I'll do, but I know that I'll decide tonight.

    I know that these threads can often be sickly sentimental, but I will say this: It does work out in the end, you just have to persist. Last longer than your enemies and yourself.

    Love ya, IST
