List it all down.Take a deep breath, hold it and exhale, move at your own paceWe're ALL gonna make itThe motivation thread is openPrevious thread >>77376770
>>77391448I fucking did it lads. Two gfs. God, the second date with the second person was amazing. She's just so perfect.
>>77391529Congrats on your dates but don’t be a two timer. Pick one
got tired of being a wagecuck, or dare I say goyboy, so a buddy and I are trying to start a business cooking. he does BBQ and I do pastries. Got really autistically into cinnamon rolls and now I'm making roll variations such as a peanutbutter chocolate roll and strawberry cheesecake roll. also started playing Star Wars the Old Republic online. super cool!waiting on God's providence is hard. you have to remember the Hebrews wandering the desert for 40 years. they received manna daily that would spoil if they tried to keep it - a reminder to wait on God daily to provide. oh, also bought some egg whites! been drinking them for low calorie, cheap protein. super cool too!
>>77391448Today's lifts>Bench 5x5 pyramid 205 225 245>DB rows 3x9>Pushdowns 4x15>Face pulls 4x15Same routine as always because I don't like changeThe cut killed my squat and deadlift months ago, now I think it's finally coming for my bench, just barely got that 5th rep at 245, same thing happened friday :(Grip strength on the rows is improving noticeably however, left arm (my weak side) got all 3 sets without failing which is a first at this weight
>>77391603Both know, both are okay with it. One is a five year relationship and another isn’t looking for anything too serious.
>>77391652Anon, how do you feel about them two timing you? Cause even if they don't admit to it, I guarantee they are and as soon as they find someone better that wants exclusivity, they're gonna bail on you. Value yourself more than this.
>>77391658Don't be jealous
>>77391658Yes, obliviously they’re free to do their thing too. You can’t expect exclusivity in an open thing or from a fwb.Aight, I’m off for an std test, that’s the prerequisite for going bareback with the new person.
>>77391658Or people are okay with non-exclusivity, anon.
>>77391448I'm off to a rough start. Third week in a row that I keep getting patellar subluxation on knee extensions. Our gym has s PT regular who is really nice and gives free tips and shit, spoke to him and he said that it just happens with some people. Something about the groove just not being rigid enough to hold it in place under heavy load... It's a bummer, i really love leg extensions, nothing gets that burn im the quads like them. I really fucking hate knee sleeves and k-tape... It's either get used to those or just try to go harder on everything else. That's life but I'm trying to not let it get me down.>>77391660>>77391661>>77391663I've just seen this a lot and it's pretty much never a sustainable or healthy thing. But hey, it's y'all's life & time, it's yours to waste. I just want better for people.
Doing a big cut for my wedding, it's going well do far. I want a jaw that can cut glass in those pictures.
>>77391669>BetterThat really depends on the point of view. If I decide I want kids, then things might change.
>>77391613Good luck on your business! Running your own store is a lot of work but you will escape dependence on your boss. God helps those who help themselves so keep working on. Eventually you’ll receive his blessings
WE'RE ALL GONNA MAKE IT BRAHS
I start a job in couple days. I'm both a bit excited and a bit frightened. When I was younger and more immature I could have bailed out but today I know better. I have to pause lifting until I know how actually physical the job is, I don't wanna be sore from the start. Also hang in there. Two weeks ago I would never have guessed I'd have such an opportunity. It's like love at the first sight but with a job.
>>77391764thanks anon, I appreciate the positive words :)
>>77391448Got me a little cardio machine under the desk, used it 25 minutes today, working out again later Had a job interview earlier, went wellShould finish my bachelor's degree in a year or twoHoping to finish a technician certification in the meantime May or may not end up without an apartment next year because my friend is moving and I don't know anyone else, won't be able to make the income requirements despite being able to pay rent Feeling alright
>>77391529lmao cuck
>>77391448Happy Monday, folks. New week, mostly the same goals:>buttsex>abs>any kind of goddam exerciseBack still fucking hurts. Didn't stop me from giving the wife the ol' roger-roger during the sexcation, but it did limit options. Didn't try for anything extra - was just happy to be doing the deed.Will try and get the treadmill going again this week, low speed and no incline, see how that goes. Sitting down at the desk for a whole week was tiresome.Omad has maybe been working? It's only 2 weeks in. I did find out the foot on my scale was busted, so who fucking knows how much I actually weigh now. New scale in the mail, won't be too hard on myself as I re-establish numbers.Going to get back to it, whatever I'm actually able to do. Abs won't come in before the pool closes for the year, but I could get close if I just keep plodding on.WAGMI
>>77391631A 245 bench on a cut is still pretty impressive. Dont get discouraged by struggling. You’re going to have to make sacrifices in order to achieve your goal
>>77391448i just want my shoulder and knee to fix. was doing dips today, sharp pain at both of my shoulders. will rest my upper body for 2 days. even then, i'll make it.
>>77391669That’s the spirit! Don’t get too discouraged, there are ways to get around the pain. What’s important is that you’re addressing it now
>>77391687Good luck on your cut! Everyone will be mirin’ you by the big day
>>77391766WAGMI
Great Week Last Week Time to make this one even better.A few weeks ago I posted about how a lady ghosted me on the day of my second date which sucks and all but slowly it caused me to realize so much more about how I perceive stuff and decided it was high time to stop holding the grudges I have held to find the true love in myself. So I wrote every name of people that pissed me off in the pass or did something and simply wrote I forgave them. Turned into probably one of the best decisions I have made. Not truly forgiving the fucked shit but allowing myself to come to peace with it.Lifts were great and I am moving different at the gym just talking to random ass people trying to make my house a home you know?I think we are all gonna make it
>>77392384The trick is to stop using the word "me" in your thoughts at all. Nobody cares, why should you. Obsessing over yourself and those grudges is just taking on weight you self-impose. Why? It's all shit. Treat people well, if they don't respond with the same, move on to other people.Come here to call people incels or jeets when the rage boils over.
>>77391848Focus on the excitement part! There’s more to life than lifting. If this job is truly your dream, then you’ll face obstacles at first. But eventually you’ll figure it out. Good luck!
all my goals for last week were derailed by our fucking HOA sending a notice during the most humid part of the year that the deck needs to get stained. Prepped for it all week and then it fucking rained. barely studied for power bi, did get golf in. made no tweaks to the other app because i burned through all my tokens. we're going through IVF now, i should be jacking off into a cup later this week. goals - dont kms i also just stained half the deck. feels good.
>>77392607I mean, you couldn't tell them it's in the works? What kind of HOA is this that you have to act so quickly?
>>77391931So it sounds like you’re on the right track. Continue moving forward, your life will improve! Have you asked any of your other friends to see if they’re looking for a place to live?
Smoked my last cig today and already have quit drinking so things are looking up.
>>77391448Well it’s me, guy with the Horse Girl lady friend. Things are going really well>goes to the gym and tracks her macros>works with kids on the spectrum and the mentally disabled as her job. >FANTASTIC Cook and baker. >Respects me and my wishes.>her friends like me based on what she’s said to them>her church lady friends like me cause I’m able to lift stuff for them when they feed the homeless (they go to some site and do it, not at some facility). >now to see if her sister like me (as a person). If I don’t offend her sister (she lives with her) or majorly fuck up, I’m her BF, her words. She deleted all photos or reels of her exes. Blocked+removed them from her Social Media. Keep in mind We’re not even BF/GF Yes this is the same one who’s been with 5ish guys and recommitted to chastity during her last relationship. Unlike OrthoBro, I don’t think this one is fishing for a SIMP/golden retriever.So far, no red flags being thrown. I don’t think her faith &religiousity is performative as it’s not been recent. her church stuff has been going on for a year. Like I said, Horse Girl goes to feed the homeless every Sunday with the church ladies (they’re all in their 70’s-80). They make little meals and non perishable bags for the homeless w/no social media about it. It’s kind of sad though that in her church service, she’s the youngest (she’s 23) besides one of the 40 year olds daughter. OTOH>bar studying is kicking my ass
>>77392788Call me when she gives you the ol'>condition stableBut I guess good on you sir. The recommitted to chastity thing weirds me out, but if it works for you... How many girls have you been with, ya know, biblically?
>>77392808I’m a Volcel chief. I could have banged my first GF, but a big voice loud as thunder told me “THIS IS NOT THE ONE”. It was also confirmed that this “MILF” (read, 35 but I’m 28, so not really) also REALLY wanted my sneed but her kid is NINE. And the dad is in the kids life so that’s hella awkward. Dudes on here were bashing me calling me le cuck but I can tell she’s actually meaningfully changed. I was with a virgin once. She still hasn’t kissed ANY guy as far as I know. She was a bit… STRANGE.
>>77392883Aight. I'm not going to judge. If you think she'll make you happy, by all means, go be happy. If you think she'll make you happy.
I WILL CONTINUE TO GROW STRONGER I WILL SUCCEED IN THIS JOBI WILL LAND A BETTET ROLE NEXT SPRING Yesterday I had a stellar workout! I finally benched 240 for 5 reps! I think I’ve figured out the winning formula of Korean barbecue and energy drinks. I also OHPed 155 for 7 reps. It was the best workout I’ve had in a long time. Unfortunately, I slept poorly, so I’ll have to do it again this week. I had a lot of fun learning how to skate. I want to improve so that eventually I can join a beer league team. Even though I’ve begun using the CFA designation, none of my clients have commented on it. I guess everything is business to them. Q2 reporting has begun so work is piling up again. I’m stressed but need to focus hard. I’ve completed numerous filings, I have the knowledge to succeed. I need to reduce my stress levels as well as find balance in my life to achieve happiness. Good luck in your pursuits frens! Don’t be afraid of taking a new paths on the road to success! WAGMI
>>77392080You’ll make it in due time. For the time being, give your body the recover it needs. The gains will come soon
Took all tests, STDs and test hormonal panel, look like an IV junkie, off to lift. Never lifted after being drained, should stick to the machines probably.
>>77392968I would argue if you don't try, you do not win or lose as you have no stake in the game.
>>77392668they gave us a month and it's the worst month of weather to plan around for deck staining. i should have just told them to fuck off for a few months but i needed an actual project.
>>77391995Good luck on getting your wife’s butthole! You may not achieve abs based on your timeline, but you can grow sexier at your own pace
>>77392396Not that anon but thanks for the advice. I think too much of myself
>>77391613SWTOR is kino as fuck, it's like the only star wars thing left that isn't owned by disney and Star Wars fans are so fanatic and proliferating that I don't think that game will ever have service discontinued. Graphics are pretty good too for how old it is. I used to play but my backlog got stupid long so I had to take a break.
>>77393788Undersocialized people often do. It's ok, anon.
>>77392384That’s part of the AA process. We need to identify those who have wronged us and move on. Good job socializing. A lot of people are lonely and want to be interacted with. We’re all gonna make it
Hi anons, I'm the guy in the last thread who said he's aiming to becoming a philandering womanizing bastard player from scratch after a lifetime of inkwelldom.I have slowly started trying to extend myself more in common everyday interactions by manually smiling with customer service or cashiers, being just a touch more friendly and warm, and it's slowly starting to shift something. Baby steps as I improve my social skills, and I'll soon be hitting the pavement to really mack at these hoes, as the pimps would say. I will be directing all 110% of my efforts and focus onto my dating life specifically now, no other real focus besides just fitness and whatever I can extract from bitches outside of sex. This is a skill, a ruthless skill, and i shall succeed. I apparently have a cute face, but as a wise pimp said, looking good ain't good enough. Nevertheless, it's a tool to be utilized, alongside my growing v taper and muscles and style.Perhaps I'm far less intelligent than I think, or perhaps smarter men come up with the most insane rationalizations, but I even shed some light on why I'm going this route. The truth is, I love whores more than anything, especially given how whores have a comparatively higher level of empathy to regular trifling foids. And so I wish to level up my game to peak level, combining the le toxic manipulator manwhore dark arts alongside looksmaxxing (the precious floozies do seem to like a man who's easy on the eyes and even seem to appreciate appearances more than regular bitches who are stuck up) so as to be able to loop in whores and play out my delusional love stories with them. Truly, I think I could only ever love a ran through whore. One with big boobs ideally. I've met more than a few that meet this description. They offer me an almost maternal yet sexually charged comfort, an easygoing vibe that meets a man halfway rather than demand he extend himself first, something I'd been starved of forever as a sensitive young man.
Today's lifts>Pause squats 4x5>RDLs 4x8>lunges 2x20>leg raises 2x20First time ever trying pause squats, worked my way up to 255 on the last set, had to cheat the pauses a little on that, I'll probably park at 245 as my work weightNot gonna do full weight squats again until I'm done cutting, have heard that getting good at pause squats will help the standard squats though
I feel totally unmotivated
>>77392607Stay strong! You’ll escape your role and have a kid eventually. What’s important is that you keep trying and learning
Hi friends, two wins for this week>walking home>run into woman who used to go to my gym>she's older, bigger, walks her dog in the neighborhood>we'd sometimes use the squat rack so we'd greet each other>run into her last week>she says "wow anon looking huuuge">don't feel huge, but filing that away and treasuring itand also>hit 205lb in bench for the first time>945lb total ORM for the big three
>>77391995yeah abs are not happening for me either analbro. no sex here for the last two weeks and her surgery is tomorrow so probably no sex for at least a week after but at least i wont be jerking off after tomorrow.
>>77392782Good job! The future is only going to get better. You’ll hit bumps but aim for consistent improvement
>>77394262In my experience, it's not really a problem as long as you're still able to put that aside when an opportunity presents itself. Besides motivation, what are you having problems with?
>>77394214
>>77392788Yeah sounds like you hit the jackpot. You better do everything to keep this relationship. Good luck on your bar exam! Remind yourself that it’s a marathon, not a sprint
had to put one of my dogs down yesterday, had a tumor in his skull. got him a steak, took him for a walk, and stayed strong until he was gone. gunna go lift soon.
>>77393190What matters is that you’re lifting. Some of our greatest moments are just showing up
>>77394262Who cares? Do the work anyway.
I'm rooting against you, for what it's worth
>>77393815Thanks. I regret not socializing more but I’m trying harder now
I know exactly what needs to be done but I have no idea how to do it.This has happened before and I was able to figure it out then but I feel different this time; probably because some of the problems I'm facing are far greater but even the small ones are stumping me.I just don't know how to break through this ([{but if I did I'd write a book about it and make bank}])
>>77396435Stop killing hookers, anon.
>>77392788She's into horses.
>>77394214Don’t scare the hoes. Learn basic social skills and how to be friendly first
What the FUCK am I suppose to do for a career? I fucked up working in corporate years ago with poor work ethic and ghosting. I've looked at >getting an associates in radiology tech>applying for apprenticeship at union>reskill and try to go back to corporate What else is there? Don't really want to do the healthcare route because I'd only be in it for the money and not worth the stress cause I'm not passionate about helping people. The union apprenticeship is swamped with applicants so I doubt I'd even get in, I applied two years and never got called.
>>77396898Radiology for sure. You’ll make bank eventually.
>>77396898You can do radiology at an andrology clinic, nobody dies there
>>77396898Here's my example:>BC in CS>10 years in gamedev>Zero career prospects, zero savings, culture like in a yogurt someone forgot in the fridge for a year>looking at getting a direct-to-masters in something like nursing
Finally regaining some love for lifting after getting diagnosed with partial androgen insensitivity syndrome and declaring it a futile endeavour a few years ago. I'm never gonna have a particularly impressive physique, but I can always do better.Just need to figure out wtf I'm doing with the rest of my life. Finishing up my studies at the end of this year, no job lined up and absolutely no interest in doing a PhD even though my current research supervisor says I should.
>>77396898Life after 30 is a slow-motion suicide without family. It's all the negatives of getting old; watching your friends drift away as they start their own families, your parents and siblings getting old and die, watching everything in your life slowly putter out as the magic fades; without any of the positives of things like family or community to shore you up. Everything rots away and you're left with the bleakness of oblivion, no hope of anything continuing. Anyone who has experienced considerable ageing among his family members (or already in himself), knows how blackpilling it is. It's really rough, once people pass their early 50s (or sometimes even sooner) you start to notice the slip-ups, forgetfulness, the declining of fine motor skills, the difficulties understanding new information. Human existence is a tragedy, there are so few years that you are allowed with full mental and physical strength. Your peak years are mostly wasted with education, where you have barely any control over your own life, because you have little to no money nor autonomy. Add to that the time spent sleeping, working, hygiene, housework, shopping, appointments, visits to the workshop - what do we have left? Everyone who has to work for a living basically leads a precarious existence, regardless of whether they are a simple worker or a well-paid employee. Before they have built up a comfortable fortune and a well established understanding of the world, the body goes downhill.
Clean for STDs and hormones came back okay-ish. Test at 18,66 nmol/L, still waiting for free test.LH and Prolaktin are high, 10,4 U/L and 418 mU/L respectively, don't know what's up with that.
>>77394247It’s your first time doing pause squats, of course it won’t go perfectly. Keep trying, you’ll get the hang of them
>>77395040Congrats on both fronts! You’re growing stronger and everyone can tell
Trying to quit porn because of how much time I waste. One thing I noticed is that when I wake up late or feel like my day is 'wasted' I regress back to consuming it like some sort of hermit. I just can't seem to figure out how I'm to get out of this mindset.
>>77394262Focus on discipline at first. Just go and put in the effort
>>77397960touch sex and have grass
>>77396081Doggy will always remember the happy days he spent with you :)
>>77396290The first anon who made the original post don't regret its not worth it. Who knows where you would of been if you had not realized faults now! Regret, Fear, Rumination are a mind killer live the day to be better than the last good or bad.
>>77396435Start small. Even setting basic goals daily will help you build yourself up
>>77391603ignore him. he looooves talking about his weird sex polycule so he baits for responses like yours.
>>77397601Welcome back! Lifting isn't always about chasing perfection, it's often about simply improving. Don't jump into a PhD because you have no idea what you're doing in life. There's no shame in taking time off to think about your next step
>>77399115I have no friends to talk to
>>77391613strained my gluteus medius Tuesday, but at least I got to call out of work Wednesday and Thursday!>>77393798you're not lying bro it's freaking great. im doing a sith Inquisitor playthrough and it's addicting. not the biggest fan of Drummond Kaas, but really enjoy(ed) Balmorra. currently just side questing because it's a lovely planet with surprisingly good graphics as you've mentioned
>>77397960So don’t let little moments define your day
We are all going to make it.(except jeets and niggers)

Third date tomorrow, going to eat sushi.
>>77392746Anon, I don't have any other friends.
>>77398915Thanks for the kind words. I’ve made plenty of mistakes but I want to believe that I’ve learned from the experiences. I won’t let fear run my life
>>77400217Good luck champ!
>>77400000you forgot kikeschecked
>>77397623Not yet buddy, don't succumb to this bullshit. YOU can still change the world around you. YOU must be strong enough to will it to happen. Does everything end? Yeah, eventually. But you can change your life and create the world you want to live in at any time that you perceive that you are capable of it. I believe in you, to find new friends, to find love (if that is what you want). Enforce your self concept first, believe in yourself. Then believe in the world around you, and everything can change at that point. >tfw simply don't look at the horrors around me It CAN be that simple, you are a product of your environment, your memories make who you are. Make some new memories CHANGE your world. I know you are capable of it
Got ghosted again.
>>77400779I really appreciate your pep talk. I’m 28 and fucked up, but I still want to believe that I can turn my life around
>>77393699Still striving!>>77395744Hope things went well for her. A healthy woman is a sexy woman! And any little progress you can make counts, right?Had a pretty busy week, but also had a lot more sex than usual due to scheduling. Alas, all vanilla, but sed is sex, dangit.Back finally quit hurting 2 days ago. Back on the treadmill a little today, will start lifting again slowly next week. I had resolved to do OMAD before hurting myself, but thank goodness I had because it's really carried me through this period if inactivity without my cut going down the tubes.Back on the horse, all the horses, next week! Enjoy the weekend, bros. WAGMI
>>77401481Me neither
>>77401481>>77401509What’s up?
>>77401519Nothing. Everything. I'll be okay for weeks, months even, but when the depression hits its very heavy. Hopefully it'll pass soon
>>77401608Because the date starts in two hours, my PC keeps powering down when it running anything more than the VLC and I don’t want to watch Criminal Minds anymore since they removed Inigo Montoya’s character
>>77401608I don't bother with crushes anymore. I ask the girl out and speedrun rejection so that I can move on. Fortunately for me I'm a very picky person also so crushes are far and few between.
>>77401656I hate having feelings for someone. I to not to let it happen anymore. It inevitably ends with that awful cold feeling in your solar plexus when it all goes up in flames.
>>77397623On the opposite end, my life in my 30s (currently 37) has been only amazing and getting better.I was KHHV until 18. I got my shit together in high school, lost 50lbs + working out, and went to college and forced myself to socialize and talk to everyone. It led me to have what I would consider an amazing college life, as I fucked around, made friends, got a GF, etc.After college, 20s absolutely sucked. Making low money and working insane hours. Friends all moved away. Stopped working out, drank all the time. Was just complete shit.Climbing the corporate ladder, around 30 I turned my shit around. Got a GF now fiance. Started working out. Kept moving jobs until I got a position I now love, where I make great money and it's way, way less work. Bought a house.No friends, so I forced myself out there to find new people. Found a great friends group. Now I have time for hobbies, our friends group gets together once a month (individually we do shit, but the ~15 of us get together at least once), have a wonderful time having trips with my fiance and just doing shit, and really life is amazing.but I HAD to put myself out there. I had to actively change my life at every step. If you just sit there and do nothing, of course your life is going to rot away. But seriously, even with the "ideal" college life that I miss a lot, I would never go back, I seriously think this is easily the best time of my life.
>>77400946People really suck but keep trying! You’ll find someone eventually
>>77401764>KHHV at 18>partied in college>15+ friends "get together"Honestly you sound like a normie.My entire family died when I was 19 and I lost my virginity to a prostitute at 24. Still haven't kissed anyone, kek. That copypasta wasn't meant for you, man. Like good for you, for real, but you are not the intended audience lol.
>>77401764Literal normie in every sense of the wordGo back to facebook
>>77401903>>77401905NTA. You guys very conveniently overlooked the “got my shit together” part. You’re criticizing the anon for what he has *now* while failing to acknowledge where he started. This is the attitude of ngmifags.Some of us do it at 18, some of us do it at 58. But it’s something we all have to do if we want to stop living in the gutter. We have to get our shit together. It really sucks that you lost your entire family. I can’t relate and can’t even begin to imagine what that must be like. What would you say to someone that goes through a similar situation? What would you say to help them? It’s probably something on the compassionate side.Once you have the answer, take those compassionate words and say them to yourself.Relating to the “KHHV at 18” comment, It is certainly concerning that we think it’s a bad thing to be a virgin at 18 when that is actually a good thing. It’s what you would most expect lol. Wtf do you know when you’re 18? You don’t know anything at 18 unless life has dealt you a shitty hand and you’ve hard to learn really difficult lessons at an early age. It’s better to wait and grow, finding out who tf you really are, before playing with something as dangerous, serious and beautiful as sex. Racing to be the quickest to lose your virginity is a mistake. The effect of peer/societal pressure is real and sad. Personally, I really wish I would’ve waited. But I can’t change the past. All I can do is move on, cherishing what I have right now despite past mistakes and help others not fall into the same pothole.
>>77401764>20s absolutely suckedI am convinced this is a necessity. It’s the meaning of sacrifice: give up something good now for something great in the future. Your 20s NEED to suck if you want to have 30s and 40s worth living. During your 20s is when you use the agility of your young mind and body to learn and do as much as you can for shit pay. You’re in your 20s, you don’t know shit and nobody is gonna pay you as if you knew shit. That is why you need to go through the suck to grow and evolve into a capable man or woman. If you do that for 10 fucking years, by the time you’re 30, you’ll know a thing or two and people will respect you more and you’ll be capable enough to be trusted with higher paying jobs/roles. But you have to go through the suck. It is not optional on your path to growth. On the opposite side, if you waste your 20s partying and being NEET, eventually you’ll turn 30 with the same skillset. People aren’t that nice at that stage of your life. You’ll have the same resume at 30 than you do at 20. They’ll ask “wtf did you do with the last 10 years of your life?” And you’ll answer “well… I partied and played video games”. That is expected of a stupid 20 year old but it doesn’t land as well when you’re 30 and have no experience doing anything.I’ve seen this truth in my own life and in the lives of many others. So don’t let time continue to pass by. Start now. You have no idea what you’re capable of if you actually, really, genuinely tried.

>>77392788she seems based congrats anon
>>774025445mg is for general heart health, 25mh is a "dose" for hard pp time, just so you know.Sorry about your date, I've been there too. I work out all the time and can get diamond hard, but sometimes I'm a little too nervous with a woman.
>>77402648Don't listen to this. He's talking about viagra doses maybe. I take 2.5mg of cialis and it gets me diamond hard but also gives me a headache if I don't swallow a pint of water with it. 25mg would probably kill me.
>>77403288You’re owed nothing, momma’s boy
>>77403006Literally, unironically, I sometimes take 50mg. I also get headaches and everything turns blue, kek.25mg is a regular dose, you can easily Google this.
>>77403281The thing about this is that women hate each other and don't ever stop to consider how fortunate they are to be doing a thing or be at a place.A lot of the hypothetical women you're talking about grow up to be miserable 60 year old cunts that never even revisit all those fun "memories" she made with her "friends" that she never talks to anymore
>>77403314That’s viagra, innit? Headaches and blue sight. I’ll pop a full pill next time, thanks!
>>77403514Anon... Viagra and Cialis are the same exact drug, just one has an off-brand name.>lern 2 pp drug
>>77403555Anon, are you fucking brain dead? Sildenafil and Tadalafil are completely fucking different drugs. Jesus Christ.
>>77403609Look negro, I'm telling you that a normal dose of Cialis is 25mg, just fucking Google it
>>77403626> CIALIS for Use as Needed for Erectile Dysfunction> The recommended starting dose of CIALIS for use as needed in most patients is 10 mg, taken prior to anticipated sexual activity.> The dose may be increased to 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg, based on individual efficacy and tolerability. The maximum recommended dosing frequency is once per day in most patients.>Usual Adult Dose for Erectile Dysfunction TABLETS (Viagra)>Initial dose: 50 mg orally once a day, as needed, about 1 hour prior to sexual activity>Maintenance dose: May increase to 100 mg or decrease to 25 mg once a day, based on efficacy and tolerability.>Maximum dose: 100 mg orally once a day
>>77403626>>77403671Jesus Christ, fine, I've already put one 25mg pill in my wallet, I'll keep taking quarters daily and pop the whole one next time I meet the date, ideally right before going up to her place.Also downloaded some ED Kegels app, will do those after workouts. Although it did guide me to "goon" with a barely-there grip for at least 3 minutes today as a part of the training. Probably will keep that part for at home.
>>77403671niggle the little packets they gave me say Cialis, 25mg>>77403676Cardio is great for your dick, just fyi
>>77403682I am doing cardio. Workout- interval rooning(1km sprint)- ab exercise sets(usually dragon flags)- rooning- another ab exercise(paloff presses, captain's chair, front lever raises or landmine press, depending on the day)- another roon- stretch/yoga(random shit I see people doing, replacing that with the app thing now I guess). 6 days a week now, basically bro split with two leg days.
>>77403676>>77403682>Cialis (tadalafil) does not have a 25 mg tablet strength. The FDA-approved strengths for this medication, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction, are 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg.Probably says 2.5mg.Anywayn fucking shit bros, none of you better take any medical advice from anyone on this board without doing independent research.
>>77403690Fuck else am I going to do, andrologist's next open slot is on fucking 20.8. We'll see what they say, maybe I've got a venous leak and it's owari da for me and I have to get either platelets injections into my dick or ultrasound treatments.
>>77403701>20.8>non-murican detectedAnyway, I don't know what options you have in your area. Here in the states you can do an online chat with an Amazon pharmacist and get a script for boner pills. If you've got that or a similar option, do it, and do some real research about dosages before taking anything. If I were to recommend a starting experimental dose of cialis based on my own experiences, which I won't, it would be half of a 2.5mg pill. I would see how that affects you first. I personally achieve a diamond-hard hammer-cock with 2.5mg but find half of that does absolutely nothing. Also get real familiar with the concept of a drug's half life in your system, which for cialis is 17.5 hours.
>>77391448Been a while since I last posted, but after 28 years of being virgin, it's soon coming to an end, I finally reconnected with this girl I fell hard for after a year of no contact and next weekend we're going at it. It's all lining up, period came early, no roomate, she wants it too. God bless and WAGMI boys
>>77403704I have a fuckton of cialis already(no script), 5mg daily does not suffice. So now I have the 20mg pill in my wallet to pop before any action(need to time it right, it kicks in what, after 30 minutes?).And the worst problem is that with other dates I'm familiar with I have no issues. Like whatsoever. It's the new person.So now I don't know if it's low test, venous issue or stupid fucking mental health. Have to wait a month to get checked out. I don't think things with the new person will work out if I keep going limp mid-way and finishing her off manually.
>>77403704Actually now that I think about, maybe this cialis is just bum. The one I had the last time was working like gangbusters. Maybe this shit is underdosed.
>>77403690No it definitely says 25mg
>>77403724If you're fine with other girls, it's nothing biological. She may just be a crappy lay. Excitement alone has never been enough to keep me hard, though I can get hard anytime. If the ol' pp isn't properly stimulated it'll pack up and go home - this can literally happen rawdog in a pussy. That's the problem cialis is solving for me.>>77403725That could definitely happen. Try a new bottle before freaking out too hard.>>77403731Ok, out of curioisty where are you located?
>>77403792>where are you located Ya momma's house, I'm reading the Cialis packet right now
>>77402366What I’ve sacrificed my 20s for my career but have no social life?
>>77403963This is what I did, and frankly it's just... Okay.The honest to God truth is that we shouldn't have to make these decisions. You should have been able to stumble outside your parent's house and get a job in a factory paying the equivalent of $85 an hour in today's dollars. You'd "sow your wild oats" for a few years and then get married and buy a house.These modern neuroticism we entertain of "WHAT DEGREE DO I NEED WHAT CERTIFICATION NOW WILL THEY BE HIRING IN MY AREA AND THE TIME I GRADUATE" just should not exist...The government printed trillions of dollars and imported millions of third world slaves, and what we're living currently is the result of that.There's no right answer anymore except the one that feels right to you.
Can't wait to spend the next 30 years sitting in a cubicle doing meaningless work, commuting and sitting in traffic and pretending to care about netflix, the nfl, and food with co-workers who I will spend more time with than my actual family.
>>77404035Or, you know, do something you like
>>77404039If you want money to buy a home and start a family, usually you have to do what pays well and not "what you like."Printing trillions of dollars and importing millions of slaves made it so that the average American can no longer have a fulfilling life.
>>77404058So…start the family then? That’s the fun part, why are you being a sad cunt?Ah nevermind, another pol-brained
>>77404039The things I like are just hobbies which don't translate into any kind of career. I like hiking, biking, cooking, lifting, sometimes playing video games, reading, grilling, and things like that. It feels like everything has already been discovered and built up already so a lot of people are just coasting and a job/career is means to an end.
>>77404063Starting a family and raising them healthy costs money, also pic related
>>77404114Actually it usually requires a partner, start with that, tard
>>77404131>Pic related
>>77404206Okay, stay an incel
>>77404229Shut up fag
WAGMI
>>77392607i kms'd.just need to do another coat of half the deck and then it's just railings which don't need to be done all at once like the floorboards. actually pretty pleased with how it turned out. her surgery for the ivf went well, i jacked in the cup, and we have good numbers to start. the worst part of it was her then being around her mom for two days straight which turns into tagteam OCD - which i really think is just female autism. her mom also loaded our fridge with a ton of crap food. barely did anything with my apps. i need to start writing up more features so when i do have tokens i can just jump right in. had another recruiter call that seemed promising but paid basically what i'm getting now. had an amazing golf session though. oh and bumping up cardio didnt happen because canada. have not had sex in what has to be three weeks. i do feel like i can begin the second half in earnest now. so goals for this week - figure out my actual "all in" salary, start studying for the power bi cert, finish the deck, switch to miles instead of kilometers for my runs to save time and build endurance. try to make one thing suck less at work.
>>77404114grim but true and also seen this one before
>>77404080NTA, but I'd say you're confusing hobbies and relaxation. Video games are great to relax with but you obviously don't make a career out of them. Professional topics that interest you (but don't relax you) also exist, people just don't really find them. Is there anything you've ever found yourself excessively researching or thinking about in your free time to no current benefit? That's a good place to start. If you haven't, let your mind wander a bit
New week, same goals:>wife's butthole, any%>treadmill until abs>big lifting, little eatingBack on the path, boyos. Literally. Back feels great. Got the treadmill back under the desk, got the new scale, going to ease back into lifting today. Lightweight all week, we'll see how that treats me.OMAD kept me pretty level through the inactivity of my convalescence. Should be melting the pounds again soon. I'm excited to try again, which hasn't been the case for a while.Have another week of kids out of town coming next week. No sexcation this time, but lots of opportunities for sex with the missus. Because of the back injury I didn't push any boundaries last week. Will make a few demands next week (wear this, shave that) and push on that butthole at least once. I talked a big game about at least rubbing the tip of my dick on her freshly fingered ass while she's recovering from being eaten out one time this summer, I guess this is going to be the time to do it.WAGMI, folks.
>>77405328Congrats on getting closer to having a kid! Dont give into temptations, you’re too strong for junk food. You still have enough time to make it this year. Commit fully to leaving your job and succeeding
>>77405328Oof, mothers in law. But sounds like you've been putting that one foot in front of the other on a lot of fronts! Keep on going, mang.
>>77405499Congrats on bouncing back! Keep up the positive momentum, every little action adds up. You might not achieve butthole this week, but you’re inching closer. WAGMI
I’m going to commit to pyramid benching for my 5x5. I think I can hit next PRs with this cycle
>>77405499Fucking gross dudeKeep it to yourself
Today's lifts>DB bench 3x7 @ 100s plus 1x6 @ 110s>DB rows 4x8 @ 125>pushdowns 4x15>face pulls 4x15Switched back to DB bench due to constantly sore shoulders, previous best there was 100x4 so nice to see the improvement, shocked I got 110s for 6Rows are getting better, left arm isn't failing early anymoreMaybe I should change up the later stuff too but idk it's convenient
>>77405930Still sounds like a pretty impressive workout! Great job!
>gym nigger had a nigga moment and tried to start a fight I just walked away since Im white lmao
I scheduled a meetup for next week! I was tired of waiting around, so I made it come together! I’m excited, I hope it goes well
>>77406023Fuckin based lmaoooo
okay great. i was feeling overwhelmed and paralyzed at having so much to do with no real starting point or guideline. (i work a 14/14 rotation and put a ton of pressure on myself to try and be as productive as possible on my off days so that i can leave my job but i end up just stressing out and not getting much done) but i know ive knocked a few things out already and have a pretty good grasp of what i can realistically get done this week. the biggest hurdle is detaching from the 'I HAVE TO GET ALL THIS DONE NOW' mindset and just respect my own consistent effort. theres still a lot to be done but ill get there /fit/, we all will.
>>77403792Reporting. Whole 20mg cialis pill definitely did the trick, had really good sex. Put her to bed, tucked her in, slipped away.
>>77406095Good on you, sir!
>>77406113This is such a fucking relief, my dick isn’t dead. If there was a psychological component, this success will definitely help. Thank you, guys, wouldn’t have made it without this advice.
>>77406093Focus on doing the best you can at this moment. You have the right mentality, now focus on following through with your advice. You’ll make it, we all will :)
>>77405499Ignore the other faggot, reading your butthole any% updates and your tenacity to make it happen legitimately motivates me to stick to my own goals.WAGMI
>>77406315Agreed. There’s no shame in using whatever motivates you to make it
I WILL BENCH EVEN MOREI WILL MEET ALL MY DEADLINES I WILL ESCAPE THIS JOB I had a lackluster benching day. I didn’t prepare very well so I didn’t get great results. However I tried something new and I’m optimistic about this week. I’m aiming to bench 245 for at least 4. I’m continuing to improve my skating. My old man joked that I should learn how to crossover. It’ll take a long time before I’m good enough to even play rec hockey, but I’m enjoying the process :) Work continues to be difficult. I’m confident that I’ll meet my deadlines, but I need to stay strong. I need to take tasks one at a time and not feel overloaded. I’ve been through this cycle multiple times, I can’t accord to fall apart Continue aspiring for greatness! We may stumble but we shall not fall. WAGMI
I just started doing a linear progressive beginner program, should I also be doing some kind of focused cardio program like c25k or just focus solely on weight training and walking for cardio?
>>77407482What's your immediate goal?
>>77407560mostly focusing on weight loss, im on a -750 cut right now and working out so i look decent once i knock off 100lbs
>>77407579Then I’d emphasize cardio but still do both
>>77391529>tfw several gfsGenuiely no better feel in this world is there, just on top of the world constantly :)
>>77406315>>77406544Motivation can be such a fickle thing, especially on such a long term project as changing your body. Intellectually, I know the whole anal thing is stupid and pathetic, but it's something I can concentrate on day after day after day after day.>If I walk for an hour right now I'll get to fuck that ass.>I'm not hungry for chips, I'm hungry for butthole.>She'll say yes to anything if I look good enough.All of this is sad if I think about it too hard. But if it gets me lean...The worst thing that happens is she still says no to anal but I can at least say I've really tried, and then I'm sexy enough that I've got options if I decide to look elsewhere for what I want. I really, really hope it doesn't come to that, of course, but I believe in preparing both for success and for failure.So yeah, it's stupid, but if it works is it really that stupid?
>>77407763It isn’t. People live and improve for all types of reasons. We as humans have to endow meaning to our lives otherwise we’ll fall apart. Stay strong and keep aiming for anal!
>>77391448My goal for this week is to get better and return to 'normal'I am planning to achieve a lifting of the curse that has plagued me for the past few monthsI don't know where to begin though
>>77407982Identify a small thing you can work on every day.
I am at a point in life where I do nothing all day. On work days, I wake up, go to work, come home and refresh 4chan, YouTube and Reddit all day. If I'm very lively, I might watch a movie or read 4 pages in a book. On days off, I wake up at 1-2 pm, and just do the same shit. It's so bad at this point that I genuinely feel my body worsening. My arms are getting thinner, belly bigger and constant lower back pain. Have been to the doctors a few times and they are so far to no help. They immediately ruled out depression. They took a bunch of blood tests and everything is apparently perfect except I had very little iron in my blood. After taking iron pills for 6 months and my number being much better but not helping, I am just waiting for the next results to see what will then happen.
>have to a find a third new gym Ive only gotten a single week out of each so far before some guy loses his shit over nothing I really dont get it
>>77408073The problem is your routine. It’s normal to be tired from work but you need to do something beyond return to your room and rot. Even talking to others might be enough at first
>>77397601>current research supervisor says I should.They're looking for a slave I've worked with academics, they're all politicians Everyone I know with a PhD is a neurotic faggot
>>77406095>>77406115Good job, anon. Remember to always trust the medical advice of strangers on the internet.I've taken 50mg before and could not get hard. Other times I take nothing and I'm fine. It really is all psychological, you just needed some reassurance. Good luck fren.
>>77408120Are you getting kicked out or do you just dislike the patrons?
>>77405499Can't wait till you eat that ass anon
>>77408120Are you.... are you the "some guy" anon?
>>77391448Trying to power through a low discipline phase. I overtrained and hurt my shoulder two weeks ago and recovery has been slow, which impacted how I can train, which impacted my mood, which impacted my discipline. But at least I‘m still sticking to my training schedule, so there’s hope.
Hey guys…I need help. >lost job>gf left me>turns out she was only around for money/easy ride>opened up to her about my struggles and got told “how’s that my problem?”>moved back in with Dad>started drinking and over eating>downward spiral>ff 2monthsI’m now at 135kg, the biggest I’ve ever been. None of my clothes fit, I still don’t have a job, thankfully I’ve stopped drinking this week (so far) but I’m just so…lost. Can I get your guys help? I’m just so paralysed with what I should do. Where should I start?
>>77409247Get a job, clearly. Doordash is always hiring.
>>77409247It's easy to quit drinking and then the weekend hits. my advice there after two decades of being a functional alcoholic is decide ahead of time that you're only going to drink on Friday or Saturday, if you decide to drink at all. Your problem right now is that you have no momentum. You need to build that fucker up. Running is cheap and easy to build up. Find a couch to 5k program and start with that.You're overeating? Hard to overeat if you're cooking up everything. Gordon Ramsay has a bunch of cooking tips and videos on Youtube. Learn the basics of cooking. You got the time. Even if it's just breakfast or meal prep for lunch. Keep a routine - a healthy one - while you're on the job hunt. Keep in touch with friends, hell keep on touch with this board or /sig/. Life may suck now but it could and might get worse.
How do you make peace with the fact that you're likely to spend your life alone? I've always been a very asocial and aromantic/asexual being, and now a shrink is suggesting that I have avoidant personality disorder (on top of general anxiety).I just don't seem to be capable of pursuing anything in life. My PAIS fucks my physicality, and I haven't any ability to grow close with anyone in any capacity, so wtf do I turn to? I don't want to become some meek cunt who is perpetually bemoaning his reality, but fuck I just seem to perpetually amount to absolutely nothing.>>77399166>>7740856499.9% sure I won't even apply for a singular PhD program, it's just hard to earnestly write it off entirely given that it seems to be the only feasible option currently on the table, no matter how badly I don't actually want to do it. I'm also quite certain that I would make an absolute meal of it, and I can't cope with the potential of that.
>>77409728Thanks for the advice, vegeta. I’ve gotten big into meal prep but I need to expand my repertoire
>>77391613good luck on your business anon. food biz is very competitive. find your niche and post like a motherfucker on Insta/tiktok. and use alibaba for custom stickers and business cards on the cheap.
>>77401560hey brother you said it yourself 'itll pass soon' you know you wont feel like this forever, use that to do even the smallest beneficial thing for yourself. megadose some vit d, then if that helps a little, do 10 min of stretching, if that helps, go take a walk outside. depression sucks dick especially when it comes out of nowhere and you just feel overwhelmingly stuck, but the more tools you have to fall back on, the faster you can start to pull yourself back up. youll get through it brother.
>>77409749If you have a master's then why not just get a regular 'ol job and start your life outside academia? I probably also have avoidant personality disorder, so no help there, sorry. My parents died when I was 19. I pretty much took for granted I'd die alone.But yeah, maybe look for a good job, anon.
>>77409953This too shall pass. An essential part of the human condition
>>77409247>>opened up to herpic related for you and every single anon out thereNEVER EVER OPEN UP TO A WOMANit is sad to say this: but you are a man, nobody cares
Today I’m going to hit better numbers than last week :)
>>77409247take shrooms. realize something. stop drinking. start lifting. get on an ego trip. best them all
>>77410290Excellent post. Life begins when you have a spiritual awakening
Has anyone here had any experience with these apps that lets you block everything on your phone/PC so that you can focus?Does it work for you?
Stay strong anons :) We shall prevail
>>77410388Something similar, i actually set a paternal lock on my phone so I can't download most apps besides ones for stores. I made the pin 4 random numbers i wouldn't remember and indeed I cannot. It's helped me keep my phone pretty lame
>>77410269Update: I had a shit day lifting. I hope next week is better
>>77409984NTA and also AVPD or schioid likeI don't mean to be disrespectful but I kinda envy your parents being dead. Wait...You can completely reinvent yourself, move anywhere, off yourself, live like a bum or try to make it. If feel like I'm weighed down by decades of expectations and a facede of who I'm supposed to be. But of course the grass is greener and I don't want my parents to die, but in the back of my mind I'm kinda hanging around until they pass and I get estranged enough from siblings and family so I can do my thing. Maybe move to asia, maybe do bike trading in australia and fuck chinese roasties like durandier
>>77410954oh the main point wasn't to flex my parents it was to show you I'm kinda jelly and perhaps consider the silver lining having 0 expectations and no emotional bagage or whatever.The world is yours :)
>>77410828I might follow your example, I spend way too much time on my phone. Have you noticed your productivity improved?
>>77391613Based. I got a new job at cafe/restaurant that the owner is suggesting I could develop into my own thing with part-ownership.Also looking at running a ghost kitchen with my nieces.Best of luck.
My therapist said it's okay to date the 16 year old at church as long as I keep it just to talking until she's a little older. So really we're all gonna make it.Also bought an electric blanket and I'm very comfortable right now.
>>77409930i usually just do different chicken marinades - lemon garlic, fajita, schwarma, occasionally chili with a sweet potato mash on the bottom
>>77411336If you are older than 18, your therapist was wrong.
>>77411336Don’t fall down that hole. Be polite and friendly to her, but don’t engage with her romantically. You’ll only get into trouble
>>77412209Dude, just come unto Christ and things will get better. There'll still be slumps but joy will be maximised.
>>77412405I wish I could find a knights of Columbus/young makes Christian group near me

My back hurts from RDLs so I’m thinking about skipping pull day today :( Appreciate every workout you have frens
>>77414639Some kind chest supported rows? Pulldowns?Heal up though, boss man. Marathon vs sprint etc.
>>77414742You’re right, I should do something. I just won’t deadlift or work insanely hard Thanks. My mentor used to tell me that all the time
>>77409984I was having a bit of a sulk when I posted that because of the fresh AvPD diagnosis. Even though it makes a hell of a lot of sense, it still really threw me and I fearfully ran back to my beloved baseline of avoidance.I guess all there really is to do now is to figure out what sort of job I can actually stay sane in. Every previous job I've worked I've quite suddenly quit after having some sort of leadership responsibility bestowed upon me, which is apparently textbook AvPD, so I'll have to remain more of a grunt worker forever I suppose.I also need to take my writing seriously. I write a few scribbles most days, and maybe piece together a short article once a fortnight, but it should be my primary non-work/study focus - I haven't much else of great potential.
>>77413572I can't wait. I love the archive and have gained inspiration and knowledge from it several times.
>>77416722thanks <3that is all I need to hear, to know that it somehow improved some anons life
>>77416726We love it <3 Focus on your own life, you will accomplish your goals! We’ll eagerly await your update
Losin' weight.Doin' a masters.Learning to use a straight razor.Gotta make a billi in two years.
I just need a little accomplishment to regain momentum in my life
>>77418277Checked front and back. Love the optimism
>>77418277Maybe tone down your expectations on the straight razor. There's no shame in using a safety razor.
>>77418277Straight razors are easy to use bud. Get a quality one, keep it sharp (look into local sharpening shops if you don't want to do it yourself), dry and strop it after every use, and use a good shave soap.Remember, pull the skin taught but not excessively so. Side to side (slicing motion) is a no-no unless you want to get cut. Legitimately figured it out on my first use years ago after watching a couple videos.
>>77418277Good luck champ!
>>77413572Is it possible to have it on another site as well? I get this on Firefox. Chrome has a limit of 2gb per day so it's hard to get the entire collection.
Next week will be better :)
Another week bros I wish you all the best.
>>77419400We have new chances to make it
>>77391448Started second week of zero to 5k, absolutely crushed it. Probably going to up running frequency now that I'm not getting sore anymore.
>>77419815Congrats! Your body has adjusted to exercise and is getting stronger
>>77405328switched to miles, that's gonna take some getting used to. felt good though. did not figure out my all in salary, maybe do that over lunch today. figured out automation though which saved some time at work. the one cert i was looking at is now expiring and moving to something else entirely - that's an opening for me, i think. i finished the deck - it definitely felt great doing something physical while saving us some money. of course now the fucking dryer belt broke last night which with labor is going to cost basically what we saved. ordered the part, i might give it a go. i thought i had hit my limit at work but i'm definitely there now. the whole company culture is just jeeted to death and there's no coming back. i think i'm just gonna go all in on AI. get the $200 a month subscription and just fucking go nuts. basically facing soul death rn and it sucks. goals this week - start studying for new MS cert, maybe change this stupid dryer belt, continue job hunt/line up networking events, get set up on Claude. also need to cut out the jackin it which got back into because of the need to keep the pipes clean for my part of the ivf. gonna see if i can starve myself to sub 200 for the beach.
>>77419959So it sounds like you’ve had a productive week. Good luck with your goals this week! Persist and keep applying to jobs. You’ll find a better one eventually as long as you don’t give up
>>77410019never open up to the woman youre going to spend the rest of your life with? you're a coward and less than nothing.
>>77420082nah this is solid.
>>77420082I’ve learned that lesson the hard way from my mom
>>77420183I'm sorry anon. just know there is a woman out there who isn't like your mother and will love you through it all.
>>77420082did I fucking stutter in the screenshot?yes and this is the hard harsh truthhaving a functioning and happy life with a women means to accept and live some facts which where lived throughout all of humanity except in these periods were societies started to falllearn from the history, the past, your ancestors and not what modern feminism tells youthis is no hate against women but facts which I also find sad but have to accept if I do not want a shitty time in the long term for me and my future family
No feels bar thread, so I'm going to post it here:Spent my 20s working overtime to provide for my girlfriend while she studied. Saved up for our house and wedding. At 31 we were finally ready for children, when she started fucking a coworker, kicked me to the curb, and took the house in the divorce. That was six years ago.I've managed to get my shit together, bought a new house, progressed my career, got in shape now that I wasn't constantly working, and what are my options? Single mothers, divorced women 15 years my senior, and single women who are still "figuring life out" in their fucking 30's with a fling of "situationships" behind them.Ten years ago I thought I'd be a father with a happy family by now.And I can't even say I'm not doing well, outside of not having that.It feels fucking surreal, to be honest.
My dog died a few days ago. She was 16 years and three months old, raised from a pup. Fuck. I miss my dog and am mad that life works this way.Time is precious so make sure you get what you want.
New week, same goals.>wife's butthole, any%>treadmill until abs>big lifting, little eatingBack on track after some ups and downs. Nowhere close to where I'd hoped to be with my physique, but in retrospect my projections weren't realistic with my life. Realigned and re-motivated.Kids are at camp this week, and I'm aiming for some action every evening until they return. And of course, gonna do something with her butthole. The correct progression on my 900 step plan would be getting the small double ended vibrator she has, well, you know, double inserted while I'm downtown. We'll see how all of that goes.WAGMI, folks.
I hear so much about this guys wifes asshole its like Im the one fucking her
>>77391613>you have to remember the Hebrews wandering the desert for 40 years.True, but its a very small desert and if they'd just walked in one direction for a day or two they'd have found the edge.
>>77420183Mommy issues are the most cringe thing a man can have.Get over it. Or the best thing that will happen is you'll marry a woman just like your mother and then remember you hate your mother.
>depression>bed rot>trying to come out of it>considering exerciseHow much improvement could i see from super basic stuff like introduction of pushups, some body weight squats, etc.
>>77420287Not much physically but a shitton mentally. Get yourself a routine. It really doesn't matter for your brain if you're doing a few sets of push ups or deadlifting 5pl8s on a schedule.
>>77420253You gave your dog a wonderful life and she loved you throughout it. Don’t beat yourself up but give yourself space to morn. Those happy memories are how she’ll live on
>>77420253My condolences. You'll meet her again.
>been jerkin it daily for years, probably addicted to porn (just solo stuff) because/and I’m a virgin in my 30s>left for a vacation on Friday July 17, 10 days ago, where I was going to have a roommate>watched no porn for 10 days, didn’t even get a single erection the entire time, no wet dreams or sex dreams>didn’t feel any different than normal, still felt the same lust for women but no interest in talking to them >even went to beach one day and saw all the women in bikinis and still didn’t try to talk to them I guess I’m just gonna go back to jerkin off. It didn’t make me stronger, or make me start hitting on all the women, or anything else like that. What the hell is the point. Jerk off every day, or multiple times a day, or a week and half without even getting an erection… my motivation doesn’t change, just dead
>>77420255There’s no shame in revising your goals if they were unobtainable. Continue to make every day count. That butthole will be yours eventually
>>77420255Anon, listen to me. I am rooting for you. I have been rooting for you this whole time. I'm a huge fan. Listen to me carefully. While you are eating your wife's pussy, put your hands on each of her thighs, push up, and just start eating her ass.>but but I can't becau-No. You eat that ass, anon. Do it. We have been rooting you on for months now and it's time. Be the man and put your tongue there today. You are making a mountain out of a mole hill. If you have any hope of ever doing anal, you need to get on with the ass licking.Next time you post, it better be to say that you tossed that salad.
>>77420287It’ll give you something to work towards and a reason to leave your room often. I think both are helpful
>>77420887No ifs, ands, or butts, right?I really should. It's how I did it that one time, and asking first sure isn't working. Wednesday we're going out. Maybe I'll push the cocktails hard and then go all in when we get home. When she's tipsy/horny is always the best sex anyway.Honestly, this is how I should approach everything sex related. Less asking permission, more asking forgiveness, etc etc.
>>77420955You can do it! Pursue what you want in this world
>>77420955Yes. See you already know the answer. I'm gonna check back here on Thursday and there better be a post from you saying you ate ass. And not just one lick either, you go to town on that thing. We're all rooting for you
I WILL BENCH MORE I WILL MEET MY DEADLINES I WILL SURVIVE I’ve been going through a slump lately. I haven’t been able to meet my benching goals. I think part of my malaise is simply mentality. I need a small victory to regain momentum and push myself back on the right track. Then again, I haven’t been following my routine correctly. I will get back on track and make progress Work has been incredibly stressful lately. One of my clients has been difficult. I’m not sure how to solve their queries which only makes the case more difficult. The easy solution (the client is always right) will only make my life even more challenging. But for the time being, I’ll just try to go with the flow and work hard. There’s no point in bringing my work problems into my actual life. I will survive this job. We may fall off the path to the peak, but we will find our way back eventually. Keep pushing forward through constant effort. WAGMI
>>77420185Thanks. I don't want a Mom, I just want someone to love me
>>77420572>be you>jerk it every day for 20 years>take 10 days off>wonder why 10 days havent solved 20 years of shitty habitsRetard get a grip. Stop jerking it for a few months at least. Oh who am i kidding you already beat off right after posting this
>>77421249Tells anon to get a grip.Lambastes him for doing so.
Maybe nobody will read this but I had a particularly emotionally chaotic couple of weeks. Just a ton of meaningless bullshit.Earlier today I just put on the timer and made myself get up and do something physical for an hour. Got into it and 40:00 to 60:00 was a good boxing workout. I got the best sweat I have had in months, possibly even over a year. Damn it felt good.That was over an hour ago so it is gone now. I think my brain is in a state where it doesn't reward workout out enough and I have to do extreme things to get a good dopamine rush. I might need to cut back on the weed.Anyways, just posting that. Maybe next thread next Monday I will have a better story.
>>77421413Gains are gains. Even if your brain doesn't register it right away.Keep grinding, king.
>highly anxious low-self esteem guy >scolded myself harshly for every tiny mistakes I made>meditated for 2 years, but I only did it for 10 minutes a day>started extending it to 30 min for a week now>mfw my self-hating sessions went away It's really weird.For small mistakes, I don't feel bad anymore.Any big mistakes overwhelm me a little bit before it goes away after a few seconds.Heck, even shit like a pack of dogs chasing after me barely fazed me anymore. To be fair, meditating for 30 minutes is tough. It's like a doing a long plank session while you get agitated every few minutes. You can do nothing, but accept being uncomfortable the entire time. It's like a mental workout in that sense.
>>77421556Try going one day without ever thinking words like "me" and "I".
>>77391448Years ago I was obese, then dropped 40 lbs while gaining some muscle. Felt better, looked better. Well over 10 years have passed since. I'm not a young man anymore. The game is not to be absolutely as huge and strong as possible, it's treating life like a marathon. So a gentler, more sustained approach.Goals for this week are walk out of clinic on Friday at 5 PM with every bit of paperwork and charting done. I'm retooling a lot of my workflow to reduce needless clicking and double-work. Also, I WILL stick to my workout plan, 10K steps per day, 2 days of back, 2 days of cardio, stretching everyday. While I stopped being obese, I never technically got down to a healthy BMI. As part of the long term game, I am going to lose those last 13 lbs. My wife has complex issues with her own body, and when I started losing weight it stirred up a lot of conflicting feelings for her. Now that I have abs, she won't stop checking me out or feeling me up. Fellows, do not listen to anyone's words, believe only their actions.WAGMI
>>77421556Where do you meditate? Do you just sit on the floor and focus on your breathe? I want to get into it but I lack the discipline and I'm not sure what I'm really aiming for desu
>32 >saw oneitis with another bloke the other day >feel like a fucking 17 year old againIt's pathetic really, I also matched her on Tinder last year and was too gutless to message her
>>77421697Nta but read mindfulness in plain english
>>77421697On my bed with back support. I don't care about le proper posture that much.>focus on your breathe?I focus on what is happening around me. The sound, sensation of air hitting your body, and etc. After a while, your focus will naturally include monitoring your breathing too. I can't do the autistic focus on the breath alone.> I lack the discipline and I'm not sure what I'm really aiming for desujust aim to be consistent. Do it at a certain period for 5 min and build up toward it. >>77421599Yeah, gonna try that out.
>>77421685Rooting for you, boss. WAGMI
Finally scheduled the fifth date. Going to play arcades. Feel like a dinner and back to her place was a little understimulating for her so trying new things.
>>774218235 dates? Bro, I think this girl might actually like you.
I discovered I saved someone's life today, or more likely saved the life of their daughter.Feeling pretty pleased with myself.
>>77403706Update, went great. Had lots of sex, lots of cuddling, we're taking it slowly and metting again in a month. This last month I've stopped gooning and watching porn, masturbating, eating healthier and feeling great and confident, even with her previous insecurities like dick size were not even a factor. I finally feel like life is smiling upon me. WAGMI boys
>>77421902anon and his town bicycle.
>>77421909C'mon man don't do this to me
>>77421922Ignore my cynical thought.Congrat on the relationship, anon.
Getting really pissed off that my doctor hasn't been able to diagnose why I am so overly tired all the fucking time. It's beginning to partially ruin my life. I exercise less, eat more and just perform poorly at work. I have always eaten healthy and exercised almost daily, but this tiredness is having me struggle doing these things now.
>>77421923Thanks man. I don't think she's a town bycicle and I hope she's not
>>77421949If she is, you'll find out eventually. For now you're getting some good action and having a great time. Enjoy it!
>>77421949Good thing about modern women is that they are all active on social media with the same usernames. Google her instagram handle and see what you can find. I found out 2 of my dates were either gold diggers or a massive whore and ended up dumping both of them.
>>77421949just don't put her on pedestal or idolize her.Since this is your first relationship, that type of shit can be painful.
>>77421953ty>>77421954I don't think she uses social media, I don't so it's hard for me to track it but I'll keep an eye on it >>77421959Yeah, not a relationship yet, all I've tried to have fell through for one reason or other, so this is not my first rodeo but it's the first one going so far
I told my wife that if we didn't have children before we were too old to have them I'd buy a chainsaw and chop her to pieces.I'm serious about our fertility and all but I was obviously joking about the chainsaw part. I mean there are much better tools for that job to begin with. But now she says she's scared and concerned. I feel kind of stupid and kind of laugh about it at the same time. I really can't talk about this with many people cause it is a crime after all. Telling a girl you'll murder her if she doesn't get pregnant from you can be a serious offense. But come on I'm obviously not gonna do that.Also I spent the entire weekend doing drugs and now I'm at work and feel like my brain is mush. Fuck I regret my actions.
>>77421826I like her too.
>>77400000fucking checked holy based
>>77421984Maybe stop doing drugs and you'll be able to get her pregnant
>>77422035She takes pills me being high has nothing to do with it.Thing is I changed jobs. Used to wfh and get high while at work, then spend weekends sober. Now I work at an office and the only time I get to do drugs is the weekend. I don't do it every weekend tho, most of the time I just stay sober all the time, but it's hella fun to get high sometimes.
>>77391448I took a rest day yesterday after riding my bike for 50km and doing a solid push workout at the gym on the weekend.>>77421984I think you may have fucked your chances at having a kid with her, at least for a little bit. If you guys are trying and eventually she gets pregnant, never leave her side, and help her with anything she needs. It's no picnic for mom. You should also stop doing drugs if you're serious about your fertility and having kids. I quit drinking, and started cardio while my wife and I are trying. We lost our first pregnancy at 20 weeks a few months ago though, still grieving but we tried again the other day. I still think about the daughter we could have had.
>>77422058>me being high has nothing to do with itcope
>>77422058You sound retarded. I hope your wife goes to the cops about your chainsaw threat and divorce rapes you
>>77422088She doesn't even need to divorce rape me, everything I own belongs to her. All my money is on a bank account on her name that I use to avoid paying my debts. She can just leave.>>77422059We're not trying at the moment because of our financial situation. Not like we're poor, but we could do better. Thing is, I've met so many women that have wasted their fertility chasing a good financial situation and ended up childless but with money that I'd much rather have kids while we're still somewhat young and figure out the financial aspect along the way. I have the biological advantage in that sense and I have been very honest that if her fertility is ever stopping me from being a dad I'll just dump her and look for someone younger. We're the same age.We still have about a decade of fertility left or so tho so we're not in a hurry, but I want to erase from her mind any thoughts of waiting too long.
>>77410019that reddit screenshot was taken only 25 minutes ago after "sarmala1" posted it therefore i suspect that its a troll post made by whoever made that pic in order to
>>77422101>in debt and hiding>don't own anything>druggie>threaten to murder herSounds like she's waiting for you to get your shit together if you're currently using her to shield you from your debts. If she's worried about her fertility, she should really consider moving on and find a stable guy to have kids with.
About a week of tracking calories and getting 12-15k steps a day. Enjoying making good meals for myself and my family. Tonight is going to be protein pasta, chicken, corn, beans and cotija cheese with an adobo sauce. I’m down about 5lb so far and it hasn’t felt like I’m cutting at all, just making better choices. I even feel like I’m in a better mood overall. I feel great and am excited to see where this goes in the next few months.Even my dad is starting to get curious about how I’m tracking calories and that weighing and portioning things out makes cooking easier and taste better… it’d be cool seeing him give this a shot for a month and seeing what happens.
>>77422216Maybe she isn't. Maybe she thinks I'll never get it together. If she doesn't want to have children and is pretending to want to so I stay around because I'm hot then she's got to know there will be consequences.
>>77421698All you can do is learn from your mistakes anon. Recognize the next opportunity and understand that its fleeting. Dont miss is
>>77421926Doctor here from a few posts up. Top 4 reasons people are tired are: poor sleep, depression, anemia, thyroid issues. Go talk to your doctor, if you are not getting enough sleep find out why. If you are getting 8 - 10 hours but still tired, something may be wrong with your sleep, and at that point testing your thyroid and for anemia is warranted, as well as screening for and discussing depression. If you are not depressed, the reason doesn't come up on a lab, and you are getting 8 - 10 hours of sleep a night, get a referral to a sleep medicine specialist. Simple as.
>>77421889You're a hero. You should feel proud of yourself :)
>>77421902if you're an autist like us, you need to spill the tea and tell us how having sex even works. what do you do? what was her reaction to you being a virgin at a late age? did you look retarded in bed? is there any way to avoid looking retarded in bed?
Job search anxiety is hitting hard, lads. Gamedev is fucking dead. Dating two women isn’t helping, now it’s just two more sources of anxiety.
>>7742322928 years virgin I'm evidently an autist. I didn't tell her I was a virgin just that it had been years since my last time. What did I do? I started making out, moved on to her tits and eventually oral, then condom and flapped on top of her. Se noticed because we changed positions, but at no time did she say anything. It's not a question of looking retarded but rather of doing what feels good and right. Everything sort of came naturally if I'm honest. Also helped that she loved my pecs, biceps and specially forearms
>>77423894>It's not a question of looking retarded but rather of doing what feels good and right.I'm more of a normie on here (have a partner of 10 years) and when virgins get nervous about sex, this is basically it. Porn is performative, and since it's usually the only source of sex virgins have seen, they feel as if sex has to be performative as well; it has to "look good" from the outside. If you can get out of your head and just focus on what feels good, not what looks good, it becomes very natural. It's only when you are performative in your head that it goes sideways.
>>77421984>Telling a girl you'll murder her if she doesn't get pregnant from you can be a serious offense. But come on I'm obviously not gonna do that.Actually that's exactly what happens, quite a lot. Intimate partner homicide is the #1 cause of death of women of reproductive age. The number one cause of death of pregnant women is their partner murdering them. So, she actually has a lot to worry about.>>77422101>I have been very honest that if her fertility is ever stopping me from being a dad I'll just dump her and look for someone younger.You clearly don't care for her, why wouldn't she be worried about you? She should be hesitant about having children with you. Hopefully she gets her shit together and dumps you before she ends up in a shit situation with a shared child.
>>77420955>>77421068Also it's me again. I'm about have anal here in just a few minutes. Just waiting for arrival right now. I'll think of you
>>77424246Godspeed anon. WAGMI
>>77424259It was great
>>77423894>Everything sort of came naturally if I'm honest.>>77424030>it becomes very naturalYou aren't genuine autists if you think this makes sense to people like me. This is like when normies say "just b yourself".
>>77424246>I'll think of youfucking gay you fucking retarded anon why the FUCK did you say that.
>>77425201
>locked out my knee at the top of my bulgarian split squat>sharp burning tendon pain>doesn't lock out>it's finewhat the actual fuck
>>77425167Congrats anon!!!>>77425200It sounds like cliché but I know you'll get it when the time comes for you. WAGMI anon
>>77424246>>77424259>>77425861Just so you all know, I'm not AnalAnon who has been trying to lick his wife's ass. I'm the anon who told him to lick her this week. I have anal often. AnalAnon, did you do it last night or what? >>77420955
>>77426170Sorry to say, I was wound up for it Tuesday, was downtown and had her spread, and as soon as I made a motion in that direction she blocked me. Neither of us acknowledged that's what happened, and I played it off as plausibly deniably "just resting my tongue", but it was pretty clear that she expects me to try again at some point and isn't having it.I didn't push the issue. Finished the lickaroo, fucked her really, really good in ye olde vanilla missionary with a side of pretzel-bending her legs, and then last night we were too full and tired after dinner for another try. Kids come home today so it's back to the cock-blocked lifestyle.I tried, boss. I really did.Next attempt I'm going to bend her over and eat her that way so she can't do anything about it, and I'm really going to try and wait for her to be tipsy horny enough that she'll let it happen. Probably should eat that way a couple times first so she's not automatically suspicious. Meantime I'll shove something up her butt.This ends the best sex of the summer, and while she willingly enjoyed all the vanilla I cared to give her for the last few weeks, I also made several requests (shave this, wear that) that she ignored. I am left feeling loved but not considered, if that makes sense. I really have to get these abs so I've got some ammo for breaking this cycle.Will continue to strive. WAGMI.
