>34 years old>zero interest in women>no friends>both of my parents hate meWhat do?
>>34453921Why do your parents hate you? How do you feel about any of those things?
>>34453938My dad is angry because I don't apply for jobs. My mother is angry at me for the same reason.
>>34453938>>34453947>How do you feel about any of those things?I wonder why nobody in my family ever check up on me to ask if I am okay and I wonder how I am expected to cope in society when the people who should be worried about me aren't.
My mother said because I am over the age of 18 she doesn't have to do anything for me anymore so why would I ever talk to her?
>>34453947get a job, bozo
>>34453947Just apply. You won't get hired anyway lmao.
I know that feels. Both my parents hate me for dropping out of college, since they feel as though they wasted their time and resources on me...and that I'm not living up to my potential. So I don't get invited invited to any family events anymore.I've replaced my social life with work and was working overtime 6 days a week. Sadly, I got let go due to a certain manager and clique of mean girls not likeing me despite being a top performer with glowing reviews from other upper managers and no prior complaints from other co-workers or HR.Even with years of manufacturing experience and certifications, I am struggling to get hired.Depending on where you live, there may be some job openings at manufacturing facilities where 0 experience is needed. Hiring cafe is a good start. Indeed is popular with tons of postings. Type in "assembler" or "assembly." There are some free ai resume builder sites you can use.
>>34453921Get a hobby. Any hobby. Something that keeps you outside in nature.Be kind to yourself and others in general. Everyone's going through their own shit. You have it within your means to live a life that's worth it to you.
>>34453921same exact situation and age. I'm fairly good looking (my father is even better, legit chad) but i never cared about relationships, sex and girls. Even all the friends i have is just random people that befriended me without me putting any effort. I just don't care about anything, not even my future. I know i'm on route to homelessness but it's like a disaster movie i can't stop watching without interfering
>>34453921The decline of men approaching women functions like a political shock even when nobody frames it that way.It reshapes family formation. Fewer approaches mean fewer relationships, later marriages, lower birth rates, and accelerating demographic decline. That feeds directly into labor shortages, pension stress, immigration politics, and generational conflict. Governments can pass incentives but they cannot legislate attraction or courage.Second, it polarizes gender politics. Many women interpret non-approach as disinterest or resentment while many men experience it as rational risk avoidance shaped by social sanction, economic precarity, and fear of misreading norms. Each side builds narratives about the other and political movements harvest those grievances.Third, it weakens informal social trust. Approaching a stranger used to be a low-level civic act that trained people to tolerate rejection, ambiguity, and difference. When that disappears, people retreat into apps, algorithms, and identity-filtered spaces which harden group boundaries and reduce empathy.Fourth, it shifts power to platforms and institutions. Dating apps, HR departments, and legal frameworks mediate intimacy that used to be negotiated face to face. That concentrates cultural authority in systems optimized for liability management and profit, not human bonding.Finally, it produces downstream radicalization. Large populations of unattached men historically correlate with instability, withdrawal, or extremist politics. Most do not become violent but many disengage from civic life, work, and optimism itself which is politically corrosive.
>>34453947>>34453954Come on man youre 34 years old, youre parents are what, 60-80 years old? Get your shit together. Your failures as a human being reflect wrongly on them.
>>34454334>Just apply for a job you won't get So why shouldn't I just not bother?>>34454481I applied for a job assembling cables, cables for like electrical assemblies, I got an interview and they hated me, I was asked "did you find this job yourself" and they thought because the job listing was on a recruitment website the recruitment agency got me an interview, despite it being all myself.But yes I have lost jobs because of issues with women and managers, despite being a highly performing worker and having good skills, it means nothing when human beings are tribalistic.>>34454582Lots of absolutely horrible people are gainfully employed with no hobbies at all.>>34454864What's interesting is I can go out on nights out to bars and clubs and I generally get success, but it is like 1 week I walk home literally crying, the next week a girl is happy for me to advance. It is completely outside of my normal personality but when nothing goes your way, you take literally any positive experience.>>34454934My parents should be visiting me daily and asking me how I am, how I am feeling, how can they help me improve my mood to get a job, but they don't, they don't care so why should I?
>>34453947Get internal family systems therapy.
>>34453947How do you live? Are you basically fully supported by your parents?
>>34457482I get nothing from my parents, I haven't spoken to my dad in 3 ish years and my mother last gave me money over a year ago.I do something called "data annotation" on a website and make a few hundred dollars a week, I also do online surveys for money to buy groceries which I have been doing for the last year. I also get unemployment benefit from my country which pays for my rent and like half of my bills, I've basically been able to earn a "part time retail job" wage for a year doing this, however it only makes my family hate me more.I have basically cut contact with both of my parents at this point.
>>34457492Honestly that's better than nothing. How long have you been doing that data annotation? I did a quick google search and it looks like it's related to ai. You could probably finesse that into a more rewarding job.It sounds like you basically make only enough money to live and shitpost on 4chan.I used to be in a similar boat where I barely made enough money to exist only in my room and the internet. I thought I was content with that life, but honestly I felt a lot more fulfilled after getting a better job and building a life for myself rather than just existing.
>>34457510Since september last year I have been doing the data annotation.I used to be a university student, but I will admit the poor family structure I have makes me think why even bother applying for jobs, I can't even get my family to be good to one another.
