    You should have your bachelor's degree already at age 22, and be heading into employment, so you're starting late. Shouldn't have lazed around smoking weed after high school.

    Go get a tradie job instead.

        homie I skipped a grade and I was still 21 by the time I graduated. Only person I knew in college who graduated younger was the prodigy who got in at 12.

    Wrong. Getting IST takes like 2-3 years of effort. Everything after that becomes rapidly marginal gains. Going to university takes 3-4 years unless you're an absolute moron. And if you are a moron you're probably poor too, so if you go to a middling university they basically give you money to attend. Don't buy a house rn moron, we're at the top of a bubble and about to crash. Same with cars. Game the system as much as you can. If nogs can get ebt then so can you.

    >dating in your late 20s blah blah
    Find a girlfriend when you're young then moron? Find friends when you're doing university, or join a sport or some shit. Before all that though, figure out what you even want from life and what success means to you. It sounds like you're just parroting Everyman opinions on what "making it" is, when that isn't even what you want. Figure your shit out anon and make a plan. Then you'll make it. Doesn't matter what age you are.

      No, getting a Bachelors and Masters in computer science at a decent uni takes 5-6 years, especially if you have to work part-time due to being poor.
      Girls are not interesting in late-bloomers. They date the young tall handsome guys who are already finished with their education at 25 and have good careers. I am still in uni at their age. Girls hate men who are still running the marathon of life, they only pick the winners.

      >muh get a GF
      If she's wont love you at your DYEL, she doesn't deserve you at your peak. Also shit tier motivation for lifting
      >muh lost progress
      getting fit doesn't take 5-10 years, this is an excuse you tell yourself to justify laziness
      >university degree
      as someone entering his last year of undergrad at 22 (pre-med) unless you've got a real passion for something in particular, frick college and learn a trade. You'll be making more than I probably ever will.
      >muh success is worthless
      you haven't done shit, it seems like. Family, relationships, and tbf life happens when you're actually doing stuff and cultivating success

      Stop being sad and start doing life

      I want to do computer science and become a software engineer, I am enrolling into Uni this year but it will be a hard and long journey before I earn money and call myself successful and be attractive to girls. By the time I made it every good girl will be taken and I am afraid I will die alone. 22 is fricking old.

        start fricking winning then. lol
        also, your idea of women is wrong. 38 y/o fry cooks can get mad ladies; contrary to popular belief women aren't only choosing the hyper successful elite of wealthy and buff men to get in a relationship with. That might be somewhat true for tinder but apps are largely for casual sex. and if you're gonna meet someone worth spending years with it's probably not on tinder lmao, it's gonna be in your daily life.

        Next point: "life" isn't a marathon you can just finish and retire, enjoying all the fine things life has to offer. Real people work, have jobs, go to uni, the gym, etc. It's like going to the gym; once your hard work has paid off and your gains start to level out you can't just quit the gym and start sucking down Baja Blasts all day.
        Life really is the journey rather than the destination.

        My unsolicited advice for enrolling to uni:
        >have fun. meet friends, lift, etc. don't just surround yourself in schoolwork
        >find whatever school you plan to attend and see their course list for your major. take the bullshit gen-ed classes at a community college; it's cheaper and often easier.
        >summer classes are great. I regret wasting previous summers just smoking, gaming, and working. Just look out for burnout.
        >actually learn the content in your important/major-related classes, don't just show up to get a grade so you can take more classes. I made that mistake and now have so much to straight up memorize it's alarming.

        CompSci is a good path to be on, and 22 really isn't that old. Hang in there anon

        Absolute moron take. Women are attracted to men older than them. Those successful in their teens and early 20s look mature for their age.

          What a moronic post. The people who have a girlfriend are the ones who lives through a normal timeline and not a high-school -> NEET one. OP is an outlier but correct on his observations on women.
          Your post is like a tall guy with a girlfriend saying you need to be tall to get a girlfriend.

    It's never too late to get IST. Your goals and capacity may change as you age but physical self improvement can almost always occur. Do something rather than nothing even if it's not ideal. If you choose to sit on your ass and do nothing that's on you, just know that there's some 70yr old guy doing pushups somewhere who's mogging the shit out you.

    As far as getting a girlfriend you're just going to have to add that to the list of things you're going to do while doing the rest of it. It's not a fricking MMO, you don't hit a certain level and then unlock. Find someone who wants to support and maybe join you in your journey of continuous self improvement. Find someone you want to support and join in continuous self improvement. Get better and do better. Posting about how difficult it might be on fricking IST is not helping you accomplish anything. You cannot make it if you do not make it happen.

    I can get an engineering degree in like 3 years here + 1 for a title that doesn't do anything but give slightly higher pay that will take decades to become worth. If a woman knows you are an appreciating asset then why would she not be with you if she is attracted to you? Many women date literal bums that live in their mum's basement.

    it takes like 1-2 years to be fit by normie standards unless you are a hambeast
    uni is literally the place to meet girls/potential wife
    unless you chose a meme degree your current success wont be a problem to any decent wife material, theyll understand that the success will come later

    honestly it sounds like your biggest problem is being a whiny homosexual who will rather lay down and rot than try to improve his situation

    Brah I'll be 29 next month and I'm two years into my comp sci degree. I only started working out at 27 and am already fitter than I ever was in my life before. I've always been a lanklet and now my shoulders are so boulder-like that I look like a god everytime I wear a t-shirt. I look like I'm in my early twenties and I swear to you bro, I have never had it so easy with uni-aged girls than I do right now at this stage in my life.

    The time is going to pass no matter what you say or do. It doesn't matter whether you accept that it's going to take time to make it. Do you wanna be 35 and still haven't made it? Do the things that you need to do and stop feeling sorry for yourself. I WISH I was still 22 my man. I would've done everything differently

      Well, I had to do a year of civil service which is mandatory in my country, so you can say I "only" wasted 3 years the time I turned 19.

      I'm 32 years old and I have none of these things, apart from being moderately fit
      I recommend you at least learn/study for an interesting job like something that agrees with your temperament and at least have enough money to be comfy because once you're 30+years it's over, if you haven't received formation you'll be condemned to menial labor and trust me you don't want that if you have the 'tism

      Man, I cannot even imagine living past 30. Why? What even is there anymore? You work, go to the gym, come home tired, go to sleep, wake up, go to work....

If you even make a modicum of effort right now then by 30+ you will have the facets in place in your life to actually enjoy it.

            T doesn't actually decline that much until your 40s and 50s and even then a lot of the decline is due to activity level. It is mostly a cope by people who want to sell shit or are angry men don't get menopause. Get on retin-a, finasteride, sunscreen, lots of sleep, not drinking or smoking, Cardio, Lifting, Getting a job. Date and find a girl while doing all of the above. I know many late 20s guys with early 20s girls so dunno what you are afraid of. You will hopefully look better than the average dude who doesn't do any of the above.

        For me it's just going through the motions until I die, I don't have the drive and opportunities to change my situation and I lack the courage to end it. That's why being qualified enough for some comfy job that you could do remotely for example is at least a minimum requirement for a depressed autistic gay.
