Now I found out that it's literally true, this isn't just some random spergout. He's 100% right and this is what happened to me. It quite literally was over for me before it even began because people have already made friend groups before the uni started. Everything else is as pic related explains. Any ways of fixing this or is it actually over? I don't look bad but more people are becoming tired of hanging out with me, I just have no clue what the fuck do I talk about anymore and I feel like just being a loner.

No, idiot, this meme only exists for working adults; University is the one place this isn't true and is in fact the best place to meet people if you know where meeting people is appropriate, and that's clubs. Join a club.

if it makes you feel any better, I started hearing voices in my head at 25, and at the same time started experiencing rejection from everyone in every possible way

so it might not even be your fault

I've been on this board long enough to know that posts like OP's image (including OP's post) are 100% of the time dishonest. For starters there is nobody who doesn't feel perform and think better after regular diet and exercise, getting to the gym, cooking, cutting out goyslop mental physical and spiritual etc etc. If you don't feel better after doing these things you have something seriously medically wrong and should get to a real doctor asap. Secondly, if you ask the average anon who posts something like this 'what did you actually do' they answer with vaguery or evasiveness, or if you ask if they're some kind of autistic loser /pol/brained faggot, or ask why they think people dislike them, they give a dismissive I don't know like they've never done and ounce of self reflection in their life and they dance around the question.

Consider the mistakes made by the OP of the pic related.

1.) he's acting; which means he's not being genuine, truthful, sincere, or relatable in anyway towards his targeted audience.

2.) he's wearing a costume to play the role of normie. Creepy and again, consider the energy he's bringing to the interaction - he has an agenda and he's targeting the normies.

3.) false confidence or fake it till you make it can only take you so far; it's useful in certain contexts but if it's the only confidence or strategy you have, then you're success rate will be low.

4.) failing to build the rapport necessary to get people to open up and have a real conversation with you. Lmao, he could've gotten away with everything else if only he hadn't fucked this one part up.

Again, look at the presuppositions of the OP's communication model: he's playing a role/lying, his audience is being TARGETED for the purpose of his experiment, normie is a derogative label which implies OP is superior to his targets, and it's heavily implied that the OP has absolutely nothing in common with these normies.

Do the math: OP is a dishonest, manipulative guy wearing a normie costume and attempting to infiltrate a peer group all while relying upon fake confidence and whatever acting skills he may have. Incongruity is a guaranteed path towards failure; consider the schizophrenic aura of someone who approaches you with fake friendly vibes who simultaneously believes you're a dumb as fuck normie.

Would you want to be friends with someone like this?
>>
>>33948287
None of this considers whether he is doing any of this successfully, how obviously forced it is (which it shouldn't be, at most just try to sublimate your interests and desires into an acceptable frame and omit all that is not suited for normal conversation until you get a green light for it), if the stares are really as obviously rejecting as he thinks they are, etc. It almost feels like he's only tried it a few times based on some blueprint he, an alienated person, came up with and then gave up without going back to the drawing board or continuing his efforts.

I really needed to read that post. Especially the part about masquerading pessimism and defeatism as pragmatism, I've been criticized a lot by a friend for doing exactly that. Unfortunately, it's quite automatic by now. I feel so inadequate and 'behind' in life for many (somewhat mundane) reasons just like the average /adv/ or /r9k/ ("tfw no gf", virgin, socially anxious, etc.) and every time I try to make a minimal change and don't get gigantic rewards as a result, I feel pathetic and overwhelmed and spiral back to self-destructive habits (junk food, porn, wasting time on the internet or just being avoidant in general). It's as if I'm simultaneously my only savior and my own greatest enemy.
>>
>>33948406
I've tried my best at being an honest and genuine friend and it just did not work. I did not obsess how "over" it is. I tried my best with a fresh start but people just so happened to hate me. It's like everyone got up against me and only very few are doing the charity work for me and show mercy by being friends with me lol.
I am now paranoid that they secretly take pictures of me and shittalk me in private. I have no idea what to do but I guess I could be called a glowie by some jew on this board. What's even the point of advice if it's 70s equivalent of solving every problem by "just getting over it". That's literally the reason why there were so many serial killers and lack of mental support from other people.

Not OP but what a wrong little faggot you are
Last year I got into the best shape of my life after a breakup and felt absolutely miserable. Women didn't want anything to do with me
Then I backslid into being a fat alcoholic again earlier this year and got into a relationship.
Really just proves OP's point - the world is mostly normies with low IQ and no internal monologue, whose thoughts begin and end at "I lift heavy thing brain feel better now"
>>33948451

So what are we autistic social rejects supposed to do? Just curl up in a ball and die of loneliness because no one wants us when we "b ourselves"?
>>33948436
You must be very, very stupid indeed to think that how someone expressed themselves on 4chan is the same as real life.
On 4chan, I can call you "nigger" as much as I want. Nigger, nigger, you are a stupid brainless faggot fatherless nigger. Now, do you think I say that shit in real life (expect maybe with very close friends)?
>>
>>33948287
that isn't a "meme" you fucknut that's an image. Also yeah being a failed normalfag is a shitty thing to be. Lean into your odd side and give people a reason to interact with you
>people have already made friend groups before the [sic] uni started
It was odd to watch an entire ecosystem of friend groups and cliques sprout, grow, and finish before my eyes when I was in college. I was never privy to any of it and I have never seen it happen before. It was astounding.
>>
>>33948878
Yeah you get it man. One guy could not distinguish fascism from communism. Some jokes that I hear from people are so braindead stupid that it makes me wonder if it takes so little to actually appeal to people. Like those jokes did not even take effort to make and yet people laugh just because this person is liked. I have no fucking idea anymore, the point is to not think and get down to their level I suppose.

>So what are we autistic social rejects supposed to do? Just curl up in a ball and die of loneliness because no one wants us when we "b ourselves"?
yeah quite literally

You should identify why people don't like you and why you're a dysgenic loser and correct those problems. If you have an IQ above 90 you should have introspection enough to figure these sorts of things out, such as, say, being an obsequious people pleaser is not being a 'genuine friend' for starters. You also need to do more than wake up one day and decide "lalala today is fresh start" with a faggoty useless can-do attitude but just continue with the same bad habits with no good ones. That's just a guess tho.

And are you going to believe me if I tried that already? You clearly have no idea what are you talking about since you have no awareness regarding the idea of "subconsciousness" which is basically 70% of what we do. Those are the things that we cannot just identify you know, we do not have a switch that turns us normal.
At this point I'm just realizing that it's some sort of selection of people that get to be liked. I would fucking LOVE if someone told me what is it about me that makes me the way it is, but I cannot. If anything I'm too honest and genuine with people, maybe that's what gives them the ick, because they don't get to hear what they want to hear.
You sound like the typical boomershit that does not want to participate in solving problems and yet comes over just to tell people to "get over it" lmao.
It's like telling an athlete to "just win" the competition without any training or correcting mistakes.

No I'm not, because you're jus telling me you tried apropos of nothing, instead of providing details, which is the hallmark of lies and half truths. You wrote a paragraph about how hard you have it but have nothing to say about your own introspections. So yeah, I think you're either lying or withholding details that would hurt the credibility of your statement that you tried and make you look silly. If you have to lie to people on a korean basket weaving forum it might be over for you.

You have undiagnosed mental illness and or the personality of your mother, go to a male therapist.

I can tell you from experience, if you LARP as a person you are not and make friends, you will not be happy in those friendships.
Always be authentic

yeah you're just arrested development probably have computer brain and autism

The point is that I'm not pretending to be anybody. I'm trying to simply be the best version of myself where I'm outgoing, kind and getting along with people but it just doesn't seem to work.

>>33948988
XDDDDDDDDD

>>33948986
What it your authentic personality is being an uptight, autistic asshole who isn't naturally very likeable or lovable
>>
>>33948990
what did you want to hear? were you expecting something witty that would realign your perceptions and fix everything? this is 4chan so you probably have autism and dont understand social cues. that's it. that fact you go on in the we live in a society style is and always has been a cope for teenage level angst
>>
>>33948964
You could immediately prove my entire train of thought wrong by simply giving a few details about what you 'tried' and what you think is wrong with you internally. Every post you avoid doing that only proves my point though.
>>
>>33948990
>>33948993
Well I mostly got hung up on the "Start acting like a normie" part.
Because that sort of happened to me when I started to go to Uni. I wasn't comfortable speaking about a lot of my nerdy hobbies and toned down my occasionally somewhat weird interests, sense of humor etc. And once I made friends, I felt like I couldn't "be myself" with them. That shit sucks.
Even though I think they're great people and I still occasionally talk to some of them towards the end I was just happy they moved to different cities and I had a comfortable way to "get out"
>>
>>33949036
>autist figures out what masking is and realizes it's exhausting
>>
>>33949036
I don't mind talking about what's considered more "normal" or "hip" around these people. Obviously you'd begin talking about your "weird interests" once you get to know someone better or just trust them OR know they would genuinely give a shit. It doesn't even matter if you can't "be yourself" to me, since you're meant to have couple of friend groups. What bothers me is that people are straight up just fake to be around you know.

Either way I'm glad you're happy in the end for how it turned out for you.
>>
>>33948878

It's almost comical that the majority of you consider yourself to be "big brain superior intellect" types in comparison to the average normie. Yet, despite your contempt of them, your most secret desire is to join their peer group.

You poor infatuated dog, how inconsistent is your behavior?

Btw, you should work on your reading comprehension.
>>
>>33948496
You ARE your greatest savior and enemy, because the majority of choices in your life are yours to make, for better or worse.
