I feel like I'm missing a certain "X-Factor" when it comes to attracting women. On paper I should be doing well, I'm 24, white, have been told I'm good looking, I used to be a personal trainer and am in good shape, and I have a prestigious and high paying career. The only thing truly wrong with me is that I'm short (5'8") but I don't think I'm short enough to negate literally everything else I have accomplished.

I have had one relationship in the past, and the girl liked me (I ended up breaking up with her) but outside of that I've basically had zero luck with women. When I chat with women online, they're aware of my situation, find me attractive, etc. yet never want to go on a date or meet in person, all they want to do is chat. It's a similar story with a lot of women that I meet in person, most women are actually pretty nice to me and treat me well, but it seems like the very few times I have tried to pursue anything romantic with a woman irl something just fallas flat it's hard to explain. I've never experienced outright rejection, but it's always like the women want to put off a date until later if that makes sense.

I'm hoping someone on here may be able to redpill me on what I'm doing wrong or what's I'm missing. Thanks for taking the time out of your day to read and respond.

Although OCD can be hereditary it is still a personality disorder and with all personality disorders they are not permanent afflictions and can be cured. With all emotions, the more you feed into them the more they are sustained. Even if you don't act on them as long as you continuously think about it, it will remain.
You need to try and focus on something else whenever your OCD gets triggered.

For me, I don't doubt my memory. Only when I am confident I forgot to do something, will I then go and check. Even if I think I may have done something but I can't be sure if I did.
I will not doubt my memory and will continue on with the assumption that I did do that thing.
There are exceptions to this, like if you have to bring something important like a passport. Checking until you are confident you did bring it, is fine.
But you should try and allow yourself to not be completely sure about things.

Im a small streamer and a viewer wanted to send me 50dollars as a donation but sent 750 on accident. he then told me he is disabled and does everything with head command. he is telling me that he want me to send back the money but i was cared its a scam so i told him to contact paypal directly. paypal reached out to me telling me that i have a few days to contest it otherwise he will get the money back- which i had no issue over it; i truly wanted to send him back the money. but 3hours before he receive the money automatically he changed the procedure and it will made me lose money- so i asked him why he did that- which he answered ''i dont care about you and your money troubles i just want my money ASAP you can work i cant and you should stop traveling so much. '' so i directly opened paypal and refused the dispute. i can still send him the money back but a part of me doesnt want to because he acted like an asshole.

Read this giant blog post earnestly:
I have been trapped for a few years now in a state of non-action. Wasting away my free time essentially doing nothing, or extremely low effort bottom of the barrel, mind-melting dopamine farming
I simply do not feel a desire to do anything, the things I know that I enjoy are included
I know that I enjoy them, but the thought of actually having to do them is extremely repugnant - therefore I never act - and because I do not do these things, eventually they leave my consciousness
I am mainly talking about my hobbies here, not my career, health, etc those are fine. But, even if they are based on consumption, not creation, in nature, even something like reading a book or watching a show I simply don't do. It isn't even on my mind to do it, only the fact that I didn't do it is.
I've tried forming habits, tried quotas, timeframes to do specific tasks, etc but nothing sticks
I act entirely on impulse, living a life with zero structure, making life feel unmemorable, fast paced, and honestly confusing. No memories of what I did, no anticipation of what comes next, only the constant fuzz of the current moment
It feels like I am only alive just to put money in a 401k each week.
I know life is a binary system. You either do something or you don't, get over your problems or you don't, yes - dont say it - I know I am the only one with agency here - but it just feels like my brain does not fucking function properly, my conscience is simply wrong

TLDR:
How the fuck do I start enjoying things again, WANTING to do them, and form accountability to ensure that I do them, consistently
For now, I spend MONTHS doing nothing, with only 2 week bursts of activity I cherish and enjoy, then back to being a zombie

so how tf do I manage this? Is it even still worth it to go to uni? I cannot do a full degree online, I need to do in person classes. A large motivation behind moving would be to actually get out into the world. I have 2+ years of living expenses at my current place saved. Should I just reach out to friends I know that have moved away and ask for help with getting an apartment or to visit? I've barely even left my hometown so I'm very, very naive to many things.

Thanks for your encouragement. As much as you could say I'm afraid to chase my passions, I'm also slightly unsure of what I want. At least it feels that way. How did you settle on what you wanted? Or was it more of a case of knowing what you need but not pursuing it?
>>
>>34969966
The latter, in high school I decided to pursue one of my other interests for a career and pushed aside art/animation. I wanted to be a psychologist or therapist and took classes for that at the closest community college due to car issues with plans to transfer to university in state after 2 years. So I didn't settle on what I wanted and those plans fell through too.
>I'm afraid to chase my passions
It can feel scary but I think what you're passionate about is genuinely viable for a number of possible careers, change can be scary too but a change a of routine might what you need especially if you still qualify for financial aid. It's definitely still not to late, as a freshman I met some 26 year olds picking school back up or going for the first time or even old people going back to school.

>>34968645
>Is it even still worth it to go to uni?
You need to be thinking about what job is at the end of the degree. A lot of dumb choices can be made where you won't get hired even with education because you have no connections. Something like nursing or anything else medical can get you hired right away. Also unless you live in NYC or work down the street from your apartment you are going to need a car. In my area I have seen dishwasher want ads that said MUST HAVE RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION. & bro the bus is not reliable it can be late, you can miss it and it doesn't come for an hour. It stops running late at night. It's full of crackheads with no car etc.

I am pretty shit at dating. I hate it. I run out of ideas for dating and I consider only dates where we go and sit down and eat to be dates. Mostly because they are simple enough for me. I have like 3 restaurants I like to go to. I don't like trying new ones. Mostly because I have awful luck. The last time I had a date, the restaurant I had never been to actually had burned down maybe 2 weeks prior to my date. I get there, the shit is torched and abandoned. I didn't have a backup plan and spaghetti'd the whole date. So my question, is it fine to just go on dates to the same place multiple times? I basically never get sick of going to the same places. However, I think women might get sick of that. What do you think? Also, what are some valid ideas for dates? I can't fathom doing something other than like a lunch or dinner date.

The two main arguments for why black people have lower IQs is the environment or genetics.
The real reason is neither, it is due to parentage. Black children are left without fathers, their mothers are irresponsible and don't care for them. Their education is solely provided by the government which expects a certain baseline of knowledge.
Knowledge that those black children did not receive from their parents.
So they are left behind their peers and are thought of and treated as stupid for their lack of a proper upbringing. This shapes who they are how they see themselves.
Not to mention their lack of a father figure leaves them undisciplined.
The black people of today's society are fundamentally shaped by neglect. You can hate them for who they are but remember how they came to be.

>>34971320
In america, when black people started integrating with white people, their IQs started rising significantly. It was for a short period during the 1990s or whenever.
The point is that, the modern black culture that causes the behaviors of black men leaving their families and black woman being irresponsible is being sustained due to a lack integration within our society.
Not in the sense of an economical integration, or black people not being given opportunities. But rather, as a result of our communities being gatekeep and whittled down. A day where a black family will go and have dinner with their white neighbors, will simply never happen.
There is no cultural integration, no communities being formed so ultimately, this cycle will continue for a very long time until something is done which will never happen.

I fuck my gf raw, I'm 33 and she's 40. It's the best feeling in the world, quite literally nothing comes close.

I really, really want to cum inside her raw, but I can't because she doesn't take birth control and I agree with her that she shouldn't. I'm hairy and very masculine and I think the pill could make her lose attraction to me, this shit fucks with female hormones.

Anyway, sometimes I put the condom on right before cumming and cum inside with a condom, and sometimes I cum on her belly (she hates it lol).

I always make her cum on my dick because I know how... basically just rub her clit while fucking at a specific speed, and because I have amazing self control I can cum with her if I wanted, but because I have to pull out and put the condom on it never works well, with the condom sometimes I go soft or take longer.

God fucking damn I need to get a vasectomy... I don't want kids anyway. She's 40 in 5 years then she can't get pregnant anyway but I don't wanna wait 5 years...
Do I ask if she wants to get sterilized?

Thoughts? Advice? I want to safely creampie her. Do I get the vasectomy and store sperm on the bank or something in case I change my mind about kids?

How do kill a narcissist (through uno reversing their attempted mind game bullshit)?

>How do kill a narcissist
Ignore them
>>
If you seek control rather than emancipation. Then you are the narcissist, and a very delusional one.
>>
>>34969292
1/2
There are a few steps to "winning" against a narcissist in their own game. That is, if you consider your opponent losing to be the equivalent of you winning.
Firstly, become utterly indifferent to everything that they do. Or show the appearance of indifference as much as you possibly can.
If you show some form of emotion, even joy when your insults land successfully. They will perceive it as you caring about them in some form.
This is why it is not about winning, as you must suppress your emotions when dealing with them and there will be no happiness gained from victory in doing so.
Secondly, whenever you say anything negative about them, they will endlessly try to shift blame and defend themselves. If you try to fight against it, it shows that their opinion of the situation matters to you. You would be better off outright rejecting their argument without explanation, "You can shift the blame as much as you want it won't change anything." or ignoring it all together.
Thirdly, when the narcissist tries guilt tripping you or engages in narcissistic behaviour, dont question why they are doing it even rhetorically because you don't care about their reasoning.
Just say, "Stop trying to guilt trip me." If they make excuses say, "Stop making excuses, I don't want to hear it." Eventually you might to remove yourself from the conversation. But thats okay.
Finally, Narcissists are practically addicted to being soul sucking vampires, if you show that you are unaffected by their behaviors it will only make them want to try even harder. Which fits in with the plan of making them lose since we cannot act against them since that shows we care, we can only react and this gives us plenty of opportunities to do that.
You want to refrain from using vague names like "narcissist and egomaniac." this is like water off a ducks back to a narcissist since they do not see themselves as such.
>>
>>34971635
2/2
You must collect every failing in their life, whether it was that they got bad grades in highschool, their crush dumped them, they got cheated on, they have a low paying wage, they are ugly. It can be anything. Especially all of their poor behaviors, their attempts at manipulation and such. All of these things are like bullets to a narcissist because their personality disorder is caused by a deep rooted shame. The moment you have accumulated enough venom, and when they have chosen to attack you, that is the time to dig into them and break them down. And after all that, you tell them that they are a worthless failure, and whether they live or die, it doesn't make any difference to you.
Embarrassing them infront of others has a significant effect, but making them feel the ultimate indifference and shame is the true key to victory.
>>
>>34969292
the narcissist does not care about you, you have to realize this. your attempts at breaking someone down like that are rooted in attempting to correct their behavior, trying to have them "wake up" and become normal again but they will not do that, ever (or at least most definitely not for as long as you are trying to fix them). a narcissist needs to be abandoned by everybody, lose all emotional support and victims they feed themselves from, and only then will there ever be a *chance* of the person actually changing. of course that is very unlikely because narcissists are masters at analyzing and enforcing social/power structures to keep people dependent on them and by extension keep around their narcissistic supply, so in reality they just never heal.
narcissism is like an error in the brain, a complete failure to establish normal relationships where the afflicted person starts using power instead of love to maintain social connections, especially with loved ones. as long as the victim can't leave then the narcissist feels satisfied, if you get emotionally invested then that is already a victory because it shows that you still care about the relationship and as such the narcissist is less likely to be abandoned, which is the thing that they actually fear most.
just like anons above said, you can try and ignore them, don't give them information, realize that they are deeply mentally disturbed and don't become affected by any of the many baits that they're going to be constantly trying to pull on you. only problem with that is that it's pretty much impossible, especially if it's someone who's known you for a long time and knows how to push your buttons well - eventually you will slip up and give them even more fuel to gaslight you with more which just keeps the cycle going.
really as sad as it is, the only option you have is to simply leave.

Thanks for answering my questions. At your height 225lbs lean would look good. You should definitely pursue this woman, she likely doesn't have an attentive lover, so you need to be that, make out passionately, eat her pussy, suck her tits. Hold her close, they love that. Then fuck her in the ass and cum on her back.
