Long term neets/losers: how do you explain yourselves to people you meet? I'm not ashamed of how i wasted my life, but still, its hard to explain without getting the stigma of a selfish, evil person. I can't even form a relationship of mutual respect, for example in the workplace, let alone any friendshipNormies: What would you think about a person in their twenties who told you they've spent 8+ years as a neet? Or have no work/romantic experience?
>>84283726i dont know as time goes on it feels more and more like i had no way to escape this. i seriously dont know what i was supposed to do. its like my brain doesnt work and cant handle stress, and i dont see anything to gain from the stress either. my parents are both unimpressive people and they grew up in a time when you could easily get a job and afford a house with no skills. what hope do i have?
>>84283755>i dont know as time goes on it feels more and more like i had no way to escape this. i seriously dont know what i was supposed to dome too. but I don't have to worry because everywhere I go I am rejected by people. I know my place and they make it clear they outright hate me and want me dead. I can't change that.
No one really cares. Just lie and say you worked and had relationships, lil nibba.
they don't ask, if they do I just say the truth, if I think they're judgemental I deflect easily by talking about our "common" enemies (the rich, immigrants, lefties, righties)
>>84283726I just tell them Im ugly so people never gave me a chance to raise my social value when I was younger resulting in a feedback loop of despair
>>84283726it really shocks me how uncommon being a neet really is. its only 1 in 10 people under 30. what the hell is wrong with me? why is it so easy for everyone else to find a place in life.
>>84283726Easy. I don't meet people so I don't need to explain myself
posting here all day sounds more grueling than having a full time job. So hopefully you guys are doing cool things like making art or at least playing good vidya
>>84283867We have to, have nobody to leech from
lie about everything, no one cares about the truth anyway
>>84284709> have nobody to leech fromi feel bad for americans in this one regard, you have it made otherwise but no easy neetbuxi bet it'd be 1/5 easily if you had uk/eu system and honestly i think you could afford it if your country got rid of all the scams like the cali homeless scam or minesota fraud
I have actual goals I'm still working towards with the intent of those earning me sustainable income someday, so that helps a lot, but honestly at this point I just tell people and let them resent me. It only really pisses off people who have poor people mentality and I don't really want to be around them anyways. It's genuinely kind of an okay filter for people who are predisposed to envy or contempt.
>>84283726If someone were to ask me why I never dated I'd just respond with>"It was never really important to me then."And it's technically true
>>84283726i just tell them that i'm mentally ill because it's truei don't have a normal brain and i can't function like a normal person
>>84283726I think you are gay, can i prove it mathematically? Maybe. With that being said, cockington and ballsington, pissington and shittington and cummington and masturbatington.
There is great power in simply not explaining yourself to anyone. This in and of itself is great for your mental health regardless of your circumstances. To get out of the habit of conjuring up "I-this, me-that, bla bla bla" stories and explanations when someoen asks you a personal question, and instead say few remarks, or nothing at all if you don't want to talk to them. That's another thing: When you're a student and employee, you have to stop turn and look every time someone say excuse me sir, outside as an adult you don't have to talk to anyone. Been schooled by lawyers on youtube on how to talk to cops in the rare cases that happens, whereas I see so much videotaped police interaction where they automatically launch into their "I-this, me-that, bla bla bla" speeches and then get into all kinds of trouble form misunderstandings that would have been avoided had they jsut kept their mouth shut.

>>84284709if there was nobody to leech from id literally just die, nobody will hire me. id just be face down on the street waiting for starvation to take me, we are not the same. maybe id beg for a bit. nobody will hire a subhuman.
>>84285484hey watch this
>>84285228jizzington
>>84283726i dont owe anyone an explanation
>people you meetthat's some bold assumptionmy family already knows I'm a lazy sack and the mental health jews just get the "I'm so sick and helpless and I need help" act
>>84285748kek>>84283867>>84284709what's up with you dumbasses thinking that not having to work is some curse?
>>84283726I'm not a NEET anymore since I'm going back to college, but I've been one on and off throughout a lot of my life. I embellish my history and make it sound like jobs that I've actually had lasted longer and so on, or like I was making a living doing freelance work full-time when I was really just doing a little bit on the side for pennies. COVID is also a huge get out of jail free ticket, tons of people got laid off due to it and many weren't able to find a new job in the same field afterwards.
>>84283726I rarely ever leave my house, let alone talk to people that I don't know so luckily I've never really had this issue. But I don't really care if people judge me for being neet because I know normgroids can not and will not make an effort to understand those who are different than them. And I don't have any guilt since I know this is the only way I can survive in this world. If they think I'm a selfish or evil person for this then so be it. I won't make an effort to hide my neet status from others either. This is just how I live my life
>>84286485>I'm not a NEET anymore since I'm going back to collegeHow old are you?
34 yo NEET. I see no way out either. I never learned how to handle stress so it's intolerable.
>>84285914Most people have nobody to leech from like that so yes, for them not having a job would be a curse.
>>84285914im happy to not be a miserable wagie but i do feel like im supposed to have some kind of function in society and be able to have the life that other people have instead of a life of video games
>>84283726>stigma of a selfish, evil personI don't relate to this, even as a neet of over a decade. Nobody has treated me as such.>how do you explain yourselves to people you meet?I don't relay or confess everything about myself to every person. I keep my personal life private. If I intend to talk about myself, I talk about my personal interests/hobbies, skills, and things I like. Or, I engage the other person about said things. Of course, realistically, many normalfags are going to ask the:>Where are you from>What do you doetc questions, and they're never going to be easy to answer. You already know, I'm sure. It's something you'll have to accept, or you'll need to carve a real identity beyond "useless neet". Maybe it helps to not label yourself by your job (or lack thereof) if nothing else.
>>84283726>how do you explain yourselves to people you meet?I just don't want to work and interact with people. Nobody cares really, everybody would be like me if they could.
>>84283726>explain yourselves to people you meet?Simple: I don't meet people anymore. I don't even talk to the coworkers unless I absolutely have to. They hate that for some reason, yet they don't bother talking to me first.
>>8428664139. Honestly I was really only a NEET for the last few years because of the fucking pandemic and family bullshit, and the times before that weren't really by choice, just shit luck.
>>84283755>its like my brain doesnt work and cant handle stressYou can't handle stress because you don't tackle stress head-on. Not saying you should, since only you can want to change your situation, but that's the only way to do it - constantly put yourself in stressful situations.
>>84283726people just know that i am mentally disabled within minutes of interacting with me so no explanation is needed
i dont wanna job i dont want success i just wanna binge anime in my nest and make lists and rap songs only mean anything to me with my headmate so we can be free ive never accepted your programming write anime blog posts ignoring the teacher bullshit america media fuck my parents fuck my teacher i just wanna get high smoke a blunt and pass out
>>84287958Realest post ITFT
>>84283726i tell the dentist that if they need to do more work on me because i don't bother to brush my teeth and floss correctly, then tehy make more money. good for them. now shut up and clean my teeth.
>>84288373you stupid caveman
>>84283765Yer I just say I work landscaping and no one questions it. Push wheelbarrows and stuff, you know. But really I leech tax money and play vidya.
>>84283726>Long term neets/losers: how do you explain yourselves to people you meet?There are no good answers.I have NEETed almost 20 years now, and I will stay on this train forever (hopeless autist that can't even handle office work, especially phones).I'd just say that I'm in between jobs and change the subject. Though in truth, I don't meet new people. I have rotted alone for years, and will stay that way.Sure, I hope to get some unpaid cunny before I die; but likely at a low enough level that my situation doesn't matter.
