I WILL PASS MY LEVEL 3 CFA EXAM THIS TIMEI WILL GET STRONGER IN THE GYM I WILL GET A BETTER JOBI WILL GROW HAPPIER AND MORE OPTIMISTIC My level 3 CFA exam approaches. I’ve passed most of my practice exams. However, the last one I took I got a 57%. I’m really nervous about the approaching test. But I need to approach this trail with confidence. I’ve worked so hard since I started studying back in 2021. Now I need to work just a little harder to reach the peak. I’m ready to cross that finish line. I’m trying to be excited about 2026. There are plenty of opportunities for me to reach new heights. I can reach the top of the mountain as long as I keep climbing. Good luck next year frens! WAGMI!
>>76960265>turned 30 today>got my texts from family>went fishing, caught some puffer fish got to test a new rig and bait found out it works just didn’t get the fish I wanted. Also got myself a new lure got to try it a bit seems good, had a puffer fish following itThat’s an okay start to today. I might go get my first cigar. I wish I drank or still liked weed, just as something to do. I’m probably just going to spend the rest of today doing what I normally do play video games scroll and beat off. Maybe I’ll go buy a fleshlight or even get a handjob from an Asian masseuse since really I’d appreciate some pussy today but have been a bit closed off just enjoying my own company.Been lifting hard, it’s just naturally happening for me. Going on walks eating better lifting again. May have met a girl but I’m not expecting much out of it, seems that it only goes somewhere when I don’t pick up on their interest or when I push them into the back of my head. She gives me extra shit for free when I buy stuff from her job.Have other stuff going for me but don’t really wanna spend today think much about it. Going back to school, starting social media (for money), upgrading my apartment.
>>76960265For the next year i hope to start a healthy skin care treatment. Also, i'd like to try a new language.I will get fucking stronger.I will read a bunch of books till my mind explode.I will still believe in myself.I will be a better person, kinder and helpfull Is a rough way, but i keep moving forward.
>>76960265This morning was a hard one.Holiday week was a lot of emotional up and down. Wife bitched me out over something that was her fault (I'm that guy from last wek), got over it, then got drunk and bitched me out again. On round 2 I was drunk enough to defend myself, which I don't usually bother doing because she's impossible to argue with, but somehow I actually won the whole thing. I don't know.Then for a second it looked like the kids would be sleeping over somewhere else one night this week and I could have her all to myself for 12 hours. I got all wound up with idea of dropping the kids off and returning to find her waiting in nothing but heels and a smile. Then that bubble got burst and no, I won't get her alone anytime soon.Which made me think about how lame that is. I get so little attention from her sexually that just the idea of her naked is an impossible fantasy - when we do occasionally get down to sexytimes she keeps as much clothing on as she can get away with. Pretty fucking demoralizing.So in the spirit of the thread, I'm resolving that this'll be the year I get shredded and get some fucking attention like when we were dating. Now or fucking never. And if that doesn't do it, well, then we'll see what happens then.
>>76960509I’m unfamiliar with your other post if you’d like to refresh me but I do want to mention, because it never ceases to perplex me probably due to how simple this is, that woman seem to totally forget all we really need is some sex. We don’t even necessarily need them doing all the house work. Let us get our nut off, be close with them like that and maintain that romantic bond and suddenly we naturally do all the shit we’re supposed to do for them. That’s all it takes is some head. Some guys seem to be lucky just to get some lazy she’ll lay there on her back and scroll while they do their thing, but it’s best when it’s like in the early days of a relationship where they seem to truly desire us to truly want to service and please us. It totally blows my mind. Media always makes the argument of>oh well he wasn’t doing his share to earn itBut over in reality town men don’t just randomly stop lmao. Having that level of closeness feeling like she sexually desires us like she’s submitting to us makes some kind of neurotransmitter / hormone drive in us to do all the shit we’re supposed to do for them. And more often than not what I hear about is the guy still does all the things he’s supposed to do, often even more of his fair share while the bitch does nothing. Not to use this anon as an example but like this >>76958976and all it fucking takes is some sex, something that should just be a normal part of a normal relationship. Yeah stuff like kids get in the way but like in your example dude there’s not even a reciprocating effort. I don’t think I can get married man. I’m so fast to dump women early in a relationship just if a single red flag pops up or anything happens to make question my trust in her. I can’t imagine getting that far but if I did I can’t imagine just sucking it up and dealing with it. Like at the minimum, they should at least communicate what we’re not doing right for the relationship (families) sake
'25 was tough. My gf was in a wheelchair for 3 months from a car accident late last year (fully recovered now). My 42 y/o coworker of 9 years passed away from a freak cardiac event, and my sponsor passed in May. Hit peak cycling PRs training for a long distance ride in Sept - did a hilly 400k, and a solo 150 miler at 20.6mph. In July my dad passed away unexpectedly from a cardiac event. Otherwise healthy guy. Dug myself out of a hole in Sept and started running again and signed up for a marathon next year. Goals and planning ahead are hard for me. I fear the next wrench that gets thrown at life. So I just go day by day. Try to eat ok, roon and roon some more, try to sleep ok. It's been working out well and rooning is magic pill for my despair and depression, so I'll keep doing it. Long time lurker mainly for the humor and roon threads. Maybe one day I'll be convinced by you bros to start lifting or hitting up a gym.
>>76960265took a week off from cardio, still managed to average seven hours of sleep a night which i think is maybe an all time high for the last five years. finally snapped at an indian i work with. i didn't directly insult him but i yelled and said some bad words so he went and complained. my boss has my back, his boss has my back too. he's a slimy retard and everyone knows it. i think i'll be fine since i didnt really cross a line but its some extra motivation to gtfo. i have some events lined up for next month, and now i have a brand new wardrobe to go with it. Christmas was largely uneventful, hadn't seen some of my family since the wedding and got some comments on my weightloss so that was cool. of course this being a holiday week i'm not really watching what i eat too closely, but i dont think i'm too far gone. Been thinking about resolutions, I think I'm going to make sure I write at least 250 words a day, that's roughly a page. Wanted to get into that more last year but never did. I figure even it's a journal that would be something. My ultimate resolution is to get the fuck out of this job ASAP, and even more so, set up some alternate sources of income. Also want to make sure i'm volunteering some more of time. Fitness resolution - i kinda wanna try to get a six pack. Reading - finish all my unread books. Gaming - finish all my unplayed gamesFinancial - gonna go back to my "allowance" except this time i think i'm just gonna take cash out. $5200 a year + whatever gifts i get should be more than enough for frivolous spending on myself. wagmi
>>76960623Previous thread was me complaining about her bitching me out for something that was actually her fault, which set her off on a long-running gripe she's had against me about something else that's also her fault. I'm not exaggerating, but I'm also not getting more specific than that.So then when she brought it back up for a second fight I'd had days of shower-thought about it and had ammo to use against her. I don't typically fight back because why bother? She always argues to win, and will just move goalposts if I start making sense. I typically know I won because she starts nitpicking word choice and grammar instead of actually having a discussion. I also don't argue much because shit, if she's upset I want to support her, not make it worse.So this time I was ready and annoyed, which almost never happens, and I completely trounced her to the point she apologized. Lemme tell ya, that doesn't happen. Ever. Didn't feel good, though. She's my wife and I love her, I don't want to have to do that.All of this is a sideline to the lack of attention, too. I really, really just need some regular sex and would it fucking kill her to dress up all spicy twice a year? Apparently that's too much to ask of a woman in this day and age.I know I'm not exciting to look at anymore, so I've pinned some hopes on me getting sexy fixing everything. It won't, but at least I'll be able to say I tried.
I am a 25 year old vagabond with ambitions.As a recap, I went on a mad dash across SEA starting halfway through 2025. And I'm still going. In this span, I learned a lot of things and nearly lost my virginity, and also took a lot of drugs at a few points.Goals for 2026 are to get in the best shape of my life and with a properly lean body, so as to look like a sex God with my shirt off. And then of course, keep going in life. Maybe make new friends or even relationships.
>>76960678i'm 25 and wanna be like you, it'll be like 3 or 4 years before I get money tho
>>76960658Nta but that sounds pretty bad. Like really bad. Just think about if its this bad right now, how will it be in 5-10 years? Why did you tolerate disrespect early on? Couldve fixed it in time. Im not saying you should do anything since you got kids with her, and at the end of the day its about them but you cant forget yourself, too. If shes reasonable try to have a calm discussion about whats bothering you, but if shes not....well...
>>76960280What happened? You can always try again
>>76960713Yeah, it's not great. I've brought up lack of sex in the past, but she handwaves it with a few stock excuses about being busy. The hard truth of it is, if she cared about what I want she wouldn't be too busy.I'm not leaving her over it or anything like that, it's not that bad yet. Not like she's gone frigid on me. She'll put out just fine when the moment allows, it's only that she's not making any effort beyond what's convenient for her.So I'll try and get her excited by getting in extra good shape, and it might kind of work but probably not really. Best case, honestly, is that I catch some mires at the pool and she gets jealous.I feel like I should stipulate here, she and I are in pretty similar shape, which isn't terrible for either of us. I'm maybe 25lbs away from abs, she's maybe 15lbs overweight herself. I'm not some Jabba-the-Snorlax over here complaining that his sexy wife won't look at him anymore.
>>76960658>>76960897You needs to looksmax immediately.
>>769606786 months in SEA and you couldn't get laid? If you're white, that is literally rock bottom.
>>76960927Nta but I used to think about the idea of vacationing (sex patting) there if I was single in my 40s/50s. And after seeing all these videos of younger guys going there I’m turned off by it. The women are mostly ugly pan faced gooks, it’s all fake they’re literal hookers, the way they throw themselves at men is borderline manipulation which pisses me off. Even in non Thai countries with no red light district I have to assume they just hope for a green card or money.I suppose it’s better than nothing if you have disposable income but I think I would unironcially rather save my money be alone and maybe once a year blow $8 grand at some nice hotel in Vegas and on a pornstar escort who I know does the stuff I would want, go gambling.I would rather find a woman I feel at ease being around beyond a few hours even when sex isn’t on the table. And I just don’t think that exists. I need to be alone most of the time to keep my sanity.
>>76960925You are correct, and I'm trying.
>>76961048>I need to be alone most of the timeGood news, broseph! Even when you're with a woman, you're still alone.
>>76960265well it is still the same archive, haven't pushed the update yettomorrow I am busy and then it is new year alreadywell then it will get an update in the new year :)sigAnon files 01.2025for_my_anonshttps://mega.nz/folder/Lro2TQxT#xGKCfbRYvE5cUkCPZyjzGA/folder/L7RDBDBCMotivational picshttps://mega.nz/folder/Lro2TQxT#xGKCfbRYvE5cUkCPZyjzGA/folder/DmokwDhJsig topicshttps://mega.nz/folder/Lro2TQxT#xGKCfbRYvE5cUkCPZyjzGA/folder/7nQyyRaS
>>76960265I really wanted to go the gym Mon-Tue-Wed but I have a runny nose
>>76960482This is the start of a new chapter of your goal. You're making the right moves, figuring out what you want and what matters. Good luck!
>>76960498You gotta keep on moving, that's the only way you'll accomplish anything. Good luck next year! Those are all admirable goals.
2025 went by quick shssA full year since I broke up with my ex and I still miss her.It's not too bad anymore tho half year into 2025 and I met this qt but after a few months with dates, it seemed she wasn't "feeling it" so we stopped talking. There's been ups and downs this year, but it's the first time in my life I feel that I'm becoming a better man. Im getting closer to God and opening up to people. I dont want to be a depressive fggt and to accomplish things out of anger (getting fit, finishing a career) like I've been doing most of my life.I wish you all the best for 2026, bros!!
>>76960640I'm really sorry about your year, you had to rough. But keep approaching life day by day. Having goals, no matter how small or significant, will give you purpose. We can't wait for you to join us :)
>>76960509Alright, so now we'll have Friday night without kids. She'll want to default to dinner out, which is fine, but if I want interesting sex with an awake partner it has to happen before we go out - she'll be tired and useless after. I'll make my expectations of sex clear, which shouldn't be an issue - like I said elsewhere here, she's not frigid, just not motivated either. I'll also say very deliberately, and not jokingly, that I want her to put on something interesting for the occasion.And then we'll see. A lot depends on her leaving work on time, which on a Friday after a holiday is a fine test of how much of a shit she gives about fulfilling my wants and needs.This is ridiculous, but I guess wish me luck. Sure would like to start the year off on a positive.
>>76960646Sorry your job sucks. I hate how much of a role politics plays in the workplace. In any case, use this experience as motivation to get out next year. The job market is cancer, so network as much as you can. Journaling every night has really helped my mental health as well. Good luck snorlax! WAGMI
>>76960678You've made a lot of progress so far. I'm glad you didn't kill yourself. Keep grinding, next year is going to be even better
>>76961286Thanks for the archive, sigAnon. I forgot to send you an email of my favorite images this year. But I’m sure you’ve saved the best of /MIS/
>>76960498don't hopemake a plan and act
>>76961286>well then it will get an update in the new year :)thank you for your cervix
>>76960803I accomplished none of my goals this year and the year before I only accomplished one out of three.
Best way to improve the week and your life is to get born again (by trusting/believing the Saviour in your place, not by taking a bath featuring an incantation by some sodomite): "And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day." - John 6:40Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added unto you.
>>76962560Don't do this.
