Is dying your hair gay? Premature graying runs in my family. I'm only 35 and I already look like this. My wife was teasing me about it and I reminded her that it'll happen to her too but she correctly pointed out she can dye her hair, which got me thinking about it.
>>34458464>Just go salt and pepper then fuck chicks with daddy issues simple asHow did it take this long for someone to post this?wtf fit
>>34458415Dying is even gayer and life is short, go for it.
>>34458481I don't know but to me it is the best option. My second option is also good, it is seriously a real product from them
no woman honestly cares about greys
>>34458415No. Is obsessing over if "is x gay?" gay?Yes, you are gay anon. Come out of the closet.
How do you cope growing old and ugly while other guys online are younger, fitter than you and having more sex in a week than you've ever had in your life?
>>34457129>>34457276>myselfWhat is that even supposed to mean then? The most "you" thing that exists are your genes, everything else is the environment or chance.
>>34457304Genes aren't the be all end all of bettering yourself, there are body builders with cerebral palsy.You can't control the deepest code in your body but you have control over a lot of it, from how you fuel it to how you use it. Same with mindset, blaming your genes isn't a catch all for the things you don't feel like doing.I come from 2 long lines of losers and wanted to better myself, so I did. Nothing genetic about that.
>>34457276Yes, you just described genetics.
>>34457523Elaborate. How are deliberate actions to rebel against ones own nature genetic?
>>34458026But it is in your nature, I never said it was supposed to feel easy to you
How do I choose between being an unsociable reject creep vs. masking and living a lie?
>>34457585Putting on an act is not exactly a lie.
Whichever one feels best.
masking isn't a lie. do you say fuck and faggot around your grandmother or boss? do you talk about special snuggles with your male friends around like your gf?every single person has a thousand versions of themselves they switch between based on setting, people, authority. seeing that as "living a lie" is juvenile thinking
I'm 27, and I'm an abject failure in every area of life. There's nothing positive about my life, and there hasn't been for a long time. I've been desperately wanting to turn it around, or at least give it a shot before I rope. I have endless to-do lists that are constantly occupying my mind. I never relax because I always think about doing something. But I never do shit. I get home from my shitty job and do nothing until it's time to go to bed again. My daily screen time is around 16 hours, most of which is spent on literally just watching the clock (both at work and at home). Every waking minute, I feel like the time is running out. And yet I can't bring myself to do anything productive. And on the rare occasion I do... I have zero control over my thoughts and emotions, so I throw a hissy fit and quit whenever things don't go my way. I also can't keep up a routine for more than a few days.I've never had a goal in life, and I don't think I ever really tried for anything. I don't even know what the fuck I've been doing all these years. I became aware of my situation only a couple of months ago, and I've been feeling like shit ever since. I have no friends or acquaintances, and my family exists only to criticize me and everything I do. I've booked appointments with a clinical psychologist and a psychiatrist, and I hope they tell me there's something seriously wrong with me. If not, and it turns out that this all has been my own doing, I don't see a way out or a point in continuing anymore.>TLDR: Realized my life is shit at 27, and I have no power to turn it around on my own.What do you think? Has anyone been in a situation like this? More importantly, has anyone gotten out of a situation like this?
>>34455275I think that's already my ultimate goal, but it's also incredibly distant and vague.
>>34455120I can't say my situation was similar to yours, OP, but I can tell you I experienced similar emotions, feelings, and thoughts as you do. I've been productive and had a decent life, but I had severe depression and general malaise, which was exacerbated by a toxic workplace and family pressures until I ended up voluntarily committing myself to a mental hospital. In those 72 hours, I was at my lowest point, and even there I realized I had more to life to offer than most of the dejected, uneducated buffoons I was sharing a ward with. I resigned myself not to live a life of suffering, but one of happiness fueled by spite. I was literally going to live my best life possible, if only to spite whatever forces that be had tried to make me miserable in this dystopian shithole we call the world. I now live a much more fulfilling life, and am more mentally resilient than ever before. But that's a long journey to get to that mental state, so I'll give you some useful, tangible advice.1: I want you to read How to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie. You can find it online for free, or most bookstores and thrift shops will have a copy for under 2.00 USD. It will help with worrying about daily life.2: Your biggest issue is stagnation, realization, and overwhelm. You've been stuck doing the same thing for many years, and then it hit you that you've been living in an unsatisfactory manner. Here's how you can beat that, in a way that my manager at work, and my therapist, both shared with me in thier own way. YOu need to break down your goals into manageable steps. I want you to take a sheet of paper and a pen and write down 15 goals you have. They should be the first thing that comes to mind. Want to get more fit? An education? A better job? Write those down. They should be general as possible, but you can add details if you have goals in mind (Eg. salary of 80K/year).1/2
>>34455373>>34455120The next thing you'll want to do is examine all of your goals and assign them a timeframe. Be honest with yourself. How long do you realistically estimate it would take to accomplish those tasks. You should have goals you can do in 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, a year, and maybe 2 years. Once you have categorized them, I would place them into a spiral bound notebook and give each goal 3-5 pages. Now in each goal you are going to really analyze the goal. What steps need to be taken. You might want a new job, so what steps would a reasonable person take? Maybe you need to polish up your resume, do some networking, or take some certifications. How long do those steps take? Things will start falling into place. You will use this "quest journal" to log your progress on every goal, preferably at the end of each day.>I've booked appointments with a clinical psychologist and a psychiatrist, and I hope they tell me there's something seriously wrong with me. They will probably tell you that you have depression. Expect it to take several sessions, most first sessions are info gathering and intake. Be ready to have that information on hand. Also, if you can, I recommend an out of network/private pay pysch. Your ability to schedule appointments will be better, and quality of service will be better. The good ones all go private because the demand is insane.>If not, and it turns out that this all has been my own doing, I don't see a way out or a point in continuing anymore.Again, live to spite the forces of the world that have tried to bring you down, be it your parents or the system. You have nothing to lose by struggling. Struggle and triumph over adversity is the ultimate win.
>>34455120To recap:>I've never had a goal in life>I never relax because I always think about doing something>I have no friends or acquaintances>>34455216I'd start by asking yourself, what do you enjoy doing? Figure out the things that make you happy. For me, that's making things.>What if I just like video games and movies?Try to deconstruct it a bit further, what do you like about movies and games? Pair things you see on TV to skills you can adapt. As an example horror games might get you into urbex or shooting. Try to go to a range or get permission to explore an abandoned property.Next is worrying. Stress itself is a massive killer, the brain constantly will choose safety over risk. In some cases, that can lead to stagnation. >>34455386 Aspiration's a great tool to get you going, try to break things down as far as possible. It can be easy to go into something unprepared and over estimate how simple or difficult a task might be. It can also be discouraging and stressful to feel like your missing the mark and your not where you wanted to be years ago. The truth I've come to accept is life goes on, sometimes plans change and that's ok. I'd try it, but keep in mind that the most positive version of yourself is always going to be growing and changing.
>>34458671Lastly is friends. When exploring what you enjoy, find people who also like doing the same things and enjoy doing what you do. Don't be afraid to talk to people, rejection isn't failure. It means your finding out what you dislike just as much as what you like.
How do you successfully avoid certain types of people without hurting their feelings?There are certain people that I just don't like their personalities. They talk about things I don't care about. They believe in stuff that annoys me to death. And everything they do just infuriates me.
>>34452801You could stop people pleasing for one thing. If all you do is kiss people's asses then all you will get are people you don't actually like
>>34452801Look up assertive communication
while it's true that you can behave in a generally sensible assertive way like this >>34455722 one said, you have to understand that it's impossible to be compatible with everybody no matter what efforts you place in people pleasing and coping, just state to yourself "I don't like that person" honestly and chop them off your life the most you can
>>34452801>How do you successfully avoid certain types of people without hurting their feelings?Will be following this thread.I have the same issue. At work people try to talk to me for no reason, I try and be polite and humor them for a minute or two, but I have responsibilities.After a while if they can't tell by all of my obvious body language that I want to leave, I simply tell them that I have stuff to do.They get so fucking pissy about it. Holy shit they need to get anally fisted by me. FUCK.
>>34456216We bumpin' we bumpin' we bumpin' for YOU :D
i chose not to follow my dreams and now i am a 30 year old fat miserable alcoholic. im starting to think my life choices were a mistake. how is life on the other side? are dream followers miserable too?
>>34457909>>34457926i have been feeling more inspired lately. i got triggered recently by a piece of media and it made me reflect on how i might have been able to create something too at this point in my life if i had stuck with it>>34457945I was decent, can copy images and draw and color still life when i spent enough time on it. i practiced regularly when i was in school for something else but totally stopped 3 or 4 years ago when work became overwhelming. i cant even find any of my digital images, they might be on another computer
>>34457790>>34457852I hear you. Art and creating stuff in general was one of the very few things that brought me real joy in life, but I was always told it led to nothing. Now I'm just old and miserable, and no amount of money will ever change that. I loved spending night after night drawing until the morning came. It was tiresome, but it gave me a sense of accomplishment. Nothing I ever did professionally ever came close to the same feeling of satisfaction I had when I did that.Now I'm old, frustrated, and frequently behave like a sad sack of shit, with no energy to interact with most of my friends.I'd rather struggle but feel a sense of personal satisfaction than this empty shell of a life I have.
>>34457790"Starting to think"Lol
>>34457790People who succeed at following dreams have a very lucky and very rare combination that is Actually possible if you were born in the first world, and rarely possible if you were born middle class elsewhere.First thing, your parents must have had happy lives, that means they were safe, free, and they had at least moderate success to be hopeful and surprised by your ambitions.If they were not free, traumatized, they will impose whatever rules they internalized "worked out for them". You will be led by them and shunned. If they were not safe as in security matters, they will become overprotective and they will guilt you once you wish to follow your path.If you had good parents, you would need to not-be the bullied kid in school, preferably you need to be the leader of the gang. A talent is a gift, but only if you discover early and focus on developing it without distractions. If you're not talented, you would need a strong motivation to stick with it into mastery. If you happen to "like everything", or if you're "good at everything", you're doomed. You will want to place time for too many things at once.Finally, you must be highly sociable and have high self-esteem to look for chances outside of school, routes for training abroad, routes into gigs and professional work to make it your living.If you have none of that, you will fail at chasing dreams and you will regret the time wasted. You're best resigning to build the expertise and financial power to pave the way for one of your kids to become the dream chaser. It's possible, it just needs more than one person to make it happen.
>>34458593Also, how do I know? Because I've got all the shit stacked against me, and I guess my talent is learning. Parents can fuck you up good, even if all they had was good intentions and never hit you or scolded you. If they were loving parents, you may become too empathetic when this world rewards selfishness and domination. If they never scolded you, you may take it to heart too deep when you fail something. If they never do sexual things you may be corralled by media to think they're wrong, if they don't banter you, you won't learn to banter. Drinking is not good, but if they don't communicate the nuance you will reject 95% of social invitations.Modern psychology is full of shit. The goal is to return you to function, and because of some twisted reasoning of ethics, they believe you shouldn't be better than the average person, or you would take advantage of others and that's a no no. They will tell you, you alone are responsible for everything in your life, and that you alone can do whatever to succeed, and that success it's not really possible so you should be content with being a miserable shit. Life doesn't give a fuck about any of that. A team will always be better than a loner. Manipulating is also a way to bond. Taking advantage of others is a source of happiness to your chimpy brain. But also, there are time-windows for everything. The dream girl is taken by 18. The dream chaser started at 12. The successful professional stuck to his job since 24 and didn't move. The losers stick to other losers, and nobody will move a finger to make it easier. Money isn't jackshit, but it's something a lot of losers are driven to. Time is everything. Time and friends. And I have neither.

There is this new game that glorifies the idea of being a father to a little girl. It shows the idea as something purely wholesome. I have a feeling that it is all bullshit. Maybe real life is more stressful? An constant worry about her getting kidnapped and raped or even killed. One scenario is that she grows up and "just" become a slut and suffers with depression and suicidal thoughts...This is not just fatherhood. I know many people who bought a country house and just spends every visit by cutting the grass and never actually enjoying it. Or like how starting your own business isn't that great as it seems. It isn't more freedom, just more responsibilities.But going back to fatherhood. What do you think. Is fatherhood really that great that this new game makes it out to be? I feel like there are certain realities.
>>34456753the whole concept is uncomfortable to me, I see it as a marketing move, because my first exposure to the game was opening my steam to check the store see what's new today, and then the store opened, and first thing I saw is a little blond girl that looks kinda hot but also way too young in a giant banner. And then I clicked it, read the description quickly, saw a couple pics and understood - It's death stranding while tugging on your heartstrings. not with a baby, but with a lolita.naaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh no thank you. Not only do they use a lolita, they are tugging on your heart strings with this whole human relationship bullshit.if you play video games, you don't need parental relationships on display. you're most likely in a stage of your life when you don't think about having kids. the retards on twitter and online are the loud minority who are like zooooooomgg its sooooooo whoole sommeee okogmgomgomogmgom i want to have kids now zoomgggg!!!!!like shuuuuuuuuuuuut the fuck up biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitchshuuuut the fuck upthat's so fucking gaykill yourselfnormal people don't care about this slop, this is for the same subhumans who thought "Dear Esther" the walking simulator was an amazing game - boring, cucked, employed middle aged plus males who still play video games and 'provide'. no thank you.
>>34456758>I've had this worry about having a daughter>>34456778>It is not even that bad of a scenario. What if she became addicted to drugs and sold herself to support her habit?These sorts of things do not happen at random. When you have a child, you are what you teach. If a child watches mom and dad fight, the kid knows it's okay to fight with their future partner. If the child never had a father who told them that they loved them and were proud of them, and showed that to them through bonding, the child will not respect themselves and they will instead believe anyone who comes along and says the words father never did. And if a daughter had no love from father she will believe any man who says the three words she never heard. Even if that man has plans to harm her or exploit her, she will believe it. And because she wasn't shown what self respect looks like, she won't know how to have that herself, she will allow her mind and body to go through whatever degradation is possible just for those three words "I love you." You won't need to worry about your would-be daughters enduring that fate so long as you make a vow to love them and mean it, not just with words but actions, taking them to parks, involving yourself in their interests, giving them a place to feel safe and a shoulder to cry on. Sitting with her through her cheesy movies and eating ice cream together. And also loving and cherishing your wife, showing the daughter how a man should treat a woman: With kindness, care, and tender leadership. Then the daughter will have the blueprint on how those words "I love you" should look like. She will know those words need to mean something. And if someone tells her those words with no meaning, just emptiness and a sinister ulterior motive behind it, she won't fall for it.
I'm 28 and white and since I was 25 my dad has been constantly pestering me to get a girlfriend and to fuck a prostitute. I like anime/manga and japanese games and he started saying I should get an asian girlfriend.He is paying the remaining mortgage off the house and will sign it over to me eventually.I live in the Republic of Ireland and I looked into rights fathers have and it turns out only mothers are legally the guardian and parent of the child in the Republic of Ireland. Fathers can only gey legal guardianship over their kids if they marry the mother or live with her for 12 months. Also, if a man owns a house and his girlfriend lives with him for 5 years (or 2 years if they have kids), she can legally take the house.This pretty much solidified why I will never have kids or date/get married
>>34456753yes there are good fathers and good men. yes there are bad fathers and bad men. if bad things happen it does not mean good thing do not exist. getting older i want a family and regret not pursuing those opportunities. some men become good because of fatherhood just as some father become bad while others stay the same.do your best.
>>34456753You're posting on an anonymous board for advice on how to handle purely hypothetical consequences of purely hypothetical circumstances. What the fuck is the point of this thread? "Hey guys, I've heard that there can be good consequences from pursuing certain things, but is it sometimes bad too?"You don't have real problems.
How do I stop feeling tired and lethargic after cumming? I want to keep my energy up for multiple rounds but I feel lile sleeping right away.
>>34457291I've used to feel tired an relaxed after masturbation. But few years ago my body chemistry has changed somehow. Now I usually get full blown panic attacks. It's the same with weed. Anyone else who have experienced this?
>>34457410i had the inverse with weed. At first it gave me panic attacks and then it started to make me sleepy later on. Its probably related to just how stressful your default state in your life is at the time
>>34457291shut the fuck up
>>34457291The sleepiness ur feeling is caused by Prolactin which gets released after ejaculation. U cant really Block it out, so instead you should try to have other things going to keep you awake through the temporary drowsiness. Once the spike is over you'll be more awake again

Okay, so I'm broke as fuck and on food stamps, and I'm resorting to this ramen noodle shit as my base source of carbs for each day of the week.Thing is, I don't like those fucking flavor packets with those nasty shit in them and all that fucking sodium. I've actually eaten these without the packets and they were alright.What can I do to make them taste good without the fucking packets? Put in some onions sauce? Cause like a bottle of cheap onions sauce is like $1.50 here.
>>34440355I don't know the price of bullion cube, the ones that make soup, but they might be more towards your flavor. Or you can try making bread, you need flour, which is cheap, water, which is cheap, yeast, which is somewhat cheap but you don't use that much and some salt for flavor and maybe sugar for the yeast. You just store the dough in the fridge and fry or bake it when you need to eat.
>>34440355go to chinese type store and buy just noodles and a bottle of oyster sauce and hot sauce just use a tiny bit of each sauce for each serving. The Maruchan ramen is slop, even the noodle part is nasty. I hate wal mart with a burning passion but they have started to carry better brands of ramen from Korea like Nongshim and it tastes many times better. Personally I stopped eating all that shit food and eat pretty much all meat with some exceptions like I use some coconut and sauerkraut. If you got meat on sale and froze it you could eat that diet on food stamps.
>>34456586>Or you can try making breadOr I can just fuck it and buy bread :)
>>34440355honestly dude, a packet of seasoning or learning how to make your own seasoning will cost you a tiny bit more but will upgrade all your ramen to a new level without any change to the current level of effort you put into it. the only difference is initial investment to figure out the seasoning you like. once you figure out the mix - you add your own mix from your own bottle like a packet, except you have a fuckload more of it and you know how it tastes like.So when you think about it, you actually aren't spending that much more money. seasoning mixes will set you back a couple dollars one week, but will last you months.
>>34458390>figure out the seasoning you likeAnd what's yours?

I am a 20 year old woman, just for some context, I have had a bad feeling that something may have happened to me when I was very little, in my early teens I started to think on the weird behaviors I had as a child and grow more concerned. as far back as my memories go, I have always masturbated, literally since my first memories. it just doesn't make sense to me, there is no reason for that to have been so. I've heard that children who are neglected sometimes do that, but I was not, I have a very loving family and I've always been taken care of. as far back into my childhood that I can remember, I have always been far too sexual, I was scared I might be a pervert. I remember having frequent sexual dreams about one family member in particular probably until I was about 11. I always woke up scared and guilty. the dreams were always about my uncle, he was 13 when I was born.
>>34458550I bring this up because I have seen other people who couldn't remember the sexual abuse they went through but would have sexual dreams about the abuser. I just want to clarify and say that I love my uncle and I think he's a good man, but I have to wonder. I assume, if it is true that something happened to me, and if it was my uncle, that I was maybe 3 or 4, since I do not have any memory of any act being committed, so he would've been a teenager *if* my fears are correct. If they are and if they can be confirmed, I would not hold anything against him, I just want clarity. He would've been a teenager, though that would be a massive mistake, I don't think it would make him a monster or anything, as I assume it would've been a one time thing and probably impulsive, not planned
>>34458553I had very sexual thoughts very young too, and at that point I had not been exposed to porn or anything of the sort. also, something that may be worth mentioning is I was an extremely anxious child, to the point where I got frequent stomach aches, and when my mom took me to the doctor, he told her he thought I just worried too much. could be nothing, could be something.I frequently felt weird around my male family members as a child, like a lot of guilt, mainly my uncle. also, throughout my childhood and into my early teens, he always acted like he didn't want to speak to me, I thought maybe he didn't like me, but if my suspicions are correct, maybe it was guilt. He doesn't act that way around me anymore.let me say, this is just a theory, I'm not trying to pin this on my uncle, but it's worth mentioning. I just have such a bad feeling, but I know I'll probably never know. I've thought about asking my mom if I was ever left alone with someone who could've done such a thing, but I'm scared of how she might react. also my uncle is her brother, so I would never mention that part of my suspicions to her. will I live my whole life never knowing? how do I move past this bad feeling when I have no clarity? could something have really happened?is there anyone here who was sexually abused as a child who could give some insight?
>>34458550>>34458553hawtbut fr how do you know? i may have been molested or family abandonment issues. there is so much of my childhood i dont remember and feel very uncomfortable with women that i struggle to get errections during the sex and the one time i did i was blacked out drunk and woke up feeling raped by my gf at the time. tend to prefer thinking i was molested by someone outside of my family than blaming my family for things.not really any good way to bring it up. just something i live with. if you feel guilt that is bad. not sure how to advise as i am kind of a mess.not sure if i will feel whole. find someone that loves you. pain is not your identity or you have the choice to not let it remain so.what is working for me is changing my life. get busy. have goals. work through it.

This is what my cabinet looks like underneath the kitchen sink of the apartment I just moved into.Is this normally the condition landlords leave the kitchen sinks in when an apartment is ready for a new tenant?
>>34454294Personally I would never buy a home that had a sink looking like that. That's fucking ghetto looking.
>>34457875if you'd get cold feet over a few inches of missing plywood, the chance of you ever owning a home is approximately 0%
>>34458318I own a home, actually. My sinks don't look like that.
>>34458367then surely you understand that you could fix them for $20?
>>34458373Why should I have to fix something I just bought? If you buy a brand new car would you be happy having to pay a mechanic to fix a broken whatever right after you just bought it? I didn't have to fix shit. Everything was in good condition when I bought my house, cause the previous owner took care of their shit. What happened after I bought it? Well that's my shit, and I fix my own shit when it needs to be fixed so it's not shit.
Been noticing my (26m) hair going for 10 years but its always been mostly hideable until now. I just looked in the mirror as the past week its felt thinner than usual. It looks awful now and I am actually upset honestly. I haven't had a gf since 2018 or sex since 2020. Out of a combo of depression and inceldom. Here we are now, fat as a pig and to make matters worse, I have a massive wart on top of my head so shaving it is out the question. It feels like its getting worse by the day now. What am I actually supposed to do? I can get the Forhims spray for £30 a month but is it really worth it? What have any of you guys found? I am beyond desperate here, this is not how it was supposed to be this early.If I was 10 years older, it may not matter so much. But I am under 6 foot and not the best looking anyway and fat as well. This is it, I am fucking doomed and it isn't helped by constant negative reinforcement online. My beard genes are also pretty shit also. No one will look at me or take my seriously in my field if I am bald, I'll just be known as another bald guy who does his thing, No women will want me and fucking hell its overFUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
>>34452710You need to start as soon as you think it's going to go. If you're serious about it, you need to see a dermatologist to get you a prescription. You MIGHT be lucky and have the right genetics where minoxidil works well. From what I heard, it's effective for Asians, but everyone else it's barely a speed bump.
norwood 3 is the cutout point
>>34453181Incorrect you sad little twat, I started balding badly enough to decide to shave it when I was about 28 (sorry I can't tell you what 'Norwood' I was because I don't do all that gay shit - when you know, you know).A man crying about losing his hair and looking for treatments is the most feminized behaviour imaginable. You'd do way better spending your money on sorting the wart out and getting a good set of clippers.Or idk, maybe you'd rather spend your money on sprays and some cute little panties.
>>34458352No man looks better bald than with hair that's an objective fact. I think you're just coping, you just gave up so all men should too or else they're gay and feminized. I bet you have a beard you fucking faggot, you know trimming and mantaining your beard is gender affirming care? What a faggot, men shouldn't care about their looks you don't know that?
>>34452710I feel ya OP. I had a receding hairline at 20-21, and now at 28 it's rapidly thinning. I've decided to just get it cut extremely short, fading the sides to a 0, and ride it out. My head looks fucking awful too and I will be planning to get some moles and skin tags removed at a very minimum.I've done a shitload of research and your only true options are oral Finasteride and oral Minoxidil. However, they have side effects, particularly Finasteride, which is known to give people permanent erectile dysfunction (PFS). Also eye floaters are another symptom, trust me you do not want that. It fucking sucks. And it's not an insignificant percentage either, it's like 4%.I decided it wasn't worth it and I am too far gone anyways. would need hair transplants even if my hair did respond. Remember, very few people actually want to be bald. It's extremely common and relatable. Try not to stress too much. I only started to consciously notice other balding men when I started balding myself. I didn't even give a shit before. It's all in our head.
