advice for a 23 khhv (never made talked to or made eye contact with a woman in my entire life because of avoidant personality, anxiety, and a religious upbringing) who just wasted the whole day reading threads on a "simp chat" forum where people gossip about amateur porn stars?
Go outside Also stop watching Eva, it's making you depressed.
>>34053635i watched eva last year but couldn't relate to shinji>beloved by peers>pilots giant robot to save the world>good at an instrument>good at school>has hot girls throwing themselves at himeven the nhk guy and punpun had qts trying to save them
>>34053662>>beloved by peersdid we watch the same anime?
>>34053662>My japanese cartoons tailored for losers who waste their time on this earth daydreaming about how their lives should look like wasn't realistic enoughStart cutting off anime and all passive entertainment
>>34053716NTA but some anime hit me in the right place at the right time.Sometimes it was something fun and pleasant and uplifting, other times it was inspirational, sometimes it was darker and reflective but ultimately helped me more understand about myself and othersNGE is somewhat dire, the original series anyways. It's not something I rewatch routinely for fun, I'm not really into mecha anime. The movies are less of a downer. >cut off all passive entertainmentWhy? Movies and anime as well as TV are a simple relaxing joy of life.It's also a great way to break the ice with someone or even meet people going out to the one store in the city that still sells Blu Rays and even DVDs, or going to second hand stores and buying them used, bumping into someone who's (also) wearing an anime t-shirt or t-shirt of one of your favorite movies, going to conventions based around those, films festivals, movies in general, etc.
>>34053420>>34053716>>34053765plus watching whatever is a better use of your time and puts you in a better place mentally than lurking the simp chat forum, being mad at politics online, or getting frustrated in video games.
>>34053765>Why?Fulfillment and achievements can not be found in objects of distraction and idleness.Also, unlike OP, you sound like a somewhat well-rounded individual who engaged with life in a healthy manner.
>>34053785>Fulfillment and achievements can not be found in objects of distraction and idleness.OP's end goal is to get with a girl, women love anime and TV series and movies.They also like music as well, some are into whatever normie trendy top 40 pop and rap and others are into retro punk and classic rock or nu-metal and industrial goth, etc.Others are way into sports as well, others not. They might be into literature or visual arts.Women are also into video games these days.Finally, women be shopping.So I'm not saying OP should just sit around by himself watching whatever slop for 16 hours a day. (used to be a NEET so I know what that's like) Just that being a film nerd or punk rocker or anime goth or whatever is all hobbies and lifestyle he can monkeybranch off of to meet girls & make friends and get over his anxiety. I was more or less in his position as well at one point.What were you suggesting instead anyways?
>>34053635This. You gotta watch Gintama instead.
