talk me out of suicide
I had terrible teenage years, completely stunted development on all fronts. I only picked myself up after I turned 18. Worked hard these past couple of years day in, day out, and now I'm turning 24. I'm in a decent shape, and looking forward to getting a well paying job. But what was the point of this? Almost none of my friends have partners. Statistics paint a grim picture too, 60% of men my age are lonely. I don't see the point in continuing this struggle. I wanted to share the remnants of my youth with a joyful parent, to get back what I missed out on previously, but I don't see a potential for me to meet women anytime soon. I'm completely isolated except for handful of long distance friends scattered around the country. No proper social circle of any kind. Almost everyone in my industry is male as well. And now I'm hearing about tons of guys in their 30s being virgins. I don't want to end up like that, being in 30s dating "experienced" 28yo women... I tried online dating, but girls there are bottom of the barrel. Average ones don't give me a time of day, attractive one are just looking for validation from a decently attractive guy like me, but I can never take it further.
you are man, you can't give up
It's not over until your body gives out on you. I have struggles too. Get therapy if you have to but don't give up. You can do this.
I just get really sad everytime I'm nearing my birthday, this happens every year. Years pass and I'm still an outcast.
I’m right there with you anon, my birthday is Jan 11th and when my dad passed away at 12 I told myself if I didn’t have my life sorted out by 30 I’d kms. 8 days left on this earthly world feels surreal I hope things can get better for you, anon.

seek enlightenment. at such a state suffering, like everything else, is an illusion. accept that everything, including your depression is impermanent. understand you are at the beginning of your journey through life and you will be a different person in 5 years. pursue letting go meditation. meditate on your death. you will realise your problems do not matter and you can choose happiness. find your higher purpose and follow it. if you creatively express yourself and channel positive energy you can tap into unlimited motivation and energy to achieve your higher purpose. understand society is forcibly brainwashed into negativity, fear, apathy. the right woman will sense something special about you since everyone and everything is the source, and beneath all the illusion and conditioning the source wants to reunite with itself.
Its not over for you if you are asian. You look young till you are 38
>almost 30
>in this situation
OP, you just can't focus on that kind of stuff. Trust me, it doesn't help.
Do what you can with the time you have left in this life.
>24
>good shape
>high paying job
Just get new friends. I'm not saying abandon your old friends. But maybe make friends in your career that actually get pussy. Or move if your job is wfh, move to a big city. You're still in the first quarter/third of your life. Why end it and go to hell? God didn't create us to kill ourselves. Plus you don't really want to die. Men are very good at suicide you wouldn't be online asking for reasons no to if you actually wanted to do it. You would just have a nice day. It will get better brother. Praise God.

frick off spammer moron
I won't let myself fall to my own demons.
I still believe in a better tomorrow
If life is pointless and all of this is for nothing, that doesn't mean that's a reason to not give it all I've got.
If the story of life will be a tragedy, then let my performance in it be outstanding.
>I tried online dating, but girls there are bottom of the barre
You're bottom of the barrel
Know your place
>and looking forward to getting a well paying job
What, you think one is just going to fall in your lap? Bet you think some random 8/10 huge titty girl will do the same. Better keep doing what you've been doing the past 6 years then, surely these 2 miracle events will happen if you keep doing the same thing.
I have a well developed portfolio and did part time work already. Ill get a full time job this year. Just seems pointless if I'm going to be surrounded by dudes in the office and will have to rely on online dating frickery to have a chance at finding a partner. I'll turn 30 and by then my only hope will be to date shitty low quality women who somehow couldn't find a good stable partner for years leading up to them turning ~28yo.
And no, I couldn't achieve any of this earlier because I completely failed in high school, and had to spend few years fixing that. my parents failed me, my school failed me. I spent years fixing those failures. I spent years learning what my dad didn't teach me about women, like how you shouldn't be needy, shit tests.
anon, you're in a tough spot because you're having to confront an indifferent world and suddenly needing to find your own sense of meaning and purpose.
This will honestly change over time, at your age I started my own business because I wanted to kms every day wagecucking. Everyone thinks I'm a successful entrepreneur at 30 but I'm 500k in debt, with very little in the bank and I need to turn this around in the next 4-5 months or it could be all over. I took a lot of risks and followed my dream and for ages just grinding towards a goal gave me purpose but it's disappearing now but I no matter how desperate, isolated and lonely you feel you just have to try and push through and figure it out.
Breaks and trips in nature help, going abroad even more so as it gives you more perspective (positive and negative) of what's out there. Also you're at the start of "the real world" if you are 24, in a good industry for work and in good shape you're doing better than 99% of people, you just need a better sense of perspective
>I only picked myself up after I turned 18
Yep, I did that. Started lifting at 19 after being a loser from a moronic household. Have a great job and shit now too.
>I'm turning 24
I'm turning 25, also have virtually no friends besides a few from high school.
>blah blah blah women
It seems like the only thing pushing you to have a nice day is fear of loneliness and shitty relationships. First of all, love isn't based on random metrics. A woman can sleep with 100 men or with 0 and it really doesn't mean anything. I know guys who had virgin gfs that were complete psychopaths and buttholes, conversely I know guys who dated giga-bawds and have the happiest relationships on the planet.
My advice is to focus on yourself and stop thinking about women so deeply. It's really counter-intuitive but you're placing way too much emphasis on girls and assigning them characteristics you're making up, you're getting in your own way.
I have a gf of 5 years, a real relationship is so starkly different than people on IST make it out to be. Actual love is almost impossible to explain, but you realize pretty quick that everything incels say on here is completely moronic and those guys are probably working with a sub 60 IQ. I would also say to leave this website and the internet entirely. If you're bored go to something in real life, live externally instead of internally.
It's not that I'm afraid of women that had some partners in the past. I'm scared that I will be forced to date women who in their late 20s were unable to find a stable partner up to this point. I wouldn't mind dating an 18yo who had partners in the past, that says nothing, she was just maybe having fun, rarely people get stable partners in their teens. My youth will wane at some point and I won't be able to attract younger women. I'm scared of aging.
>I'm scared that I will be forced to date women who in their late 20s were unable to find a stable partner up to this point.
That’s you bro, you’re describing yourself. Also you’re assuming all women in their late 20s who are single have something wrong with them. What if they were in a long term relationship and their bf cheated? What if they were focused on their career? What if they just didn’t prioritize dating? Stop being such a negative b***h.
>I'm scared of aging.
There’s fun to be had at every age you’re just pessimistic.
>That’s you bro, you’re describing yourself
It's different with women. Women date around a lot, all of them. I never really attempted dating. Something must be seriously wrong with them if they date a lot and lack the instinct to find a good partner at 28yo. what you described are extreme cases, most of them have like 2 year long relationship max.
>There’s fun to be had at every age you’re just pessimistic
I hang out around successful people my age on occasional meetups. I can't relate to them at all. Zero chemistry, I'm stiff and awkward. I'm at the mental age of 18-19 unlike them
You can absolutely date a 25 year old chick in your 40s assuming you took care of your looks and health, they’re still prostitutes tho. You want the 18-21 chicks.
Just trying to cheer you up a bit..
I think you can be happy without a woman anon honestly if you have goals and hobbies, friends etc, you can even surrogate if you want a son
>What if they were in a long term relationship and their bf cheated?
They become a soulless traumatised c**t
>talk me out of suicide
No.
>talk me out of suicide
No
Do it you worthless attention prostitute
Boohoo cry me a river you pathetic baby boy. Either gas light your self into believing you are one super confident badass motherfricker that is going to get the life he desires or frick off. Make it non negotiable.
Do a flip, homosexual
LIVE
I am a 29 year old kissless virgin and I will NEVER kill myself.
Life is worth living even if I have to die a kissless virgin
what's your story? When did you attempt turning things around first
>what's your story?
There's not much of a story, I simple went with the "chill dude don't worry it will happen" meme and of course, nothing ever happened. Boom, kissless virgin even close to 30 years of age, not that complicated.
>When did you attempt turning things around first
Pretty much never. Life is still worth living though, even if it's just lifting weights and posting here. Hell, even just writing this post is 100 times better than death, I never even remotely contemplated suicide.
I was an asocial shut-in, I decided to make it everyone else's problem.
So what did you do? Hanged out around people until you learned to be social?
Change your bleak mindset and you'll be surprised what you can accomplish, the possibilities are endless, and of course not all of them are good, but the fact of the matter is that you can change your life by changing your perception of it.
When you get a GF those statistics are laughable. After losing a GF and looking at those statistics, you realize they are poison.
