>>77539220I have never seen a vagina IRLI am 25 years old (quarter of a century)
>>77539229You have to be 18 to post.
I don't want to work.
I think I unironically enjoy going to work. I always anticipate the weekend but I always sit around bored doing nothing.
>>77539220I've been feling kind of tired for a while now, but not the physical kind of tired.
>>77539220How do you make friends at the gym? Most of the people at my gym are old or have a vagina.
>>77539274>How do I sell model trains in the movie theater bathroom?
>>77539274You don't, i do.
>>77539274you dont. most people just want to train in peace after work. most of us get enough socializing throughout the day, the gym should be the one place where I can zone out and focus on me.
Blew up my L5 three and a half months ago, started PT last week and it's good to be doing some exercises but fuck man, I just wanna get back to my old routine. Makes me wanna cry how much I miss lifting
1000 days sober today
was doing weighed pull ups at the gym today, and after I was done, some indian guy came up to me and said "excuse me sir are you a professional?" which made me chuckle. alone in my room another night.
>>77539280>>77539278>>77539274Pre covid gyms were community based, you could walk in, listen to music and lift, and people would shoot head nods your way, make small talk when you asked about how many sets they had left, willingly spotted you, would become regular faces you would say hi too and fist bump, eventually a few of those would turn into genuine friendships. My point being, maybe we have to initiate now, but things can always return to those glory days
>>77539355have you ever thought that small talk like that is just people being conditioned into being "nice". same as making smiling and having eye contact and whatnot. people dont do these things just out of good will.
>>77539361>people dont do these things just out of good will.maybe in india, but in the west its called social grace and a hallmark of a hightrust society
>>77539274Make a small talk everytime you see a regular goer. Btw i switched gym today after 6 months of going to a low traffic one and i went where the hot zoomettes are lurking but i started missing my old gym already lol
>>77539220>30>live alone>min wage>no longer interested in dating>have interest but no real hobbies, would need more money and some prep work to start hobbies (small projects like counter extension so I have room to bake for example or space to put a project car and money to buy one)I have no idea what I’m going to do. I think the one thing I know for sure that I want for a job is to be the boss. If I could be the boss and only take home $50-$80 thousand I think I would be a lot happier, assuming I could take days off each week still. Other than that preferably the job includes moving around some but not a lot. No skills no certifications no time to go get any done from what I’ve seen, all vocational schools have hours that coincide with my fixed work schedule. I’m kind of scared to be real about it.
>>77539381>I want for a job is to be the boss. If I could be the boss and only take home $50-$80 thousand I think I would be a lot happier,>min wageSorry but you live in complete lala-land. You better wake up before your delusion kills you. What you do is basically dreaming of winning the lottery.
>>77539220I've lost 20kg since March and I've still got a few kilos to go and I've also started going to the gym again in August, however losing the weight has made me want to crossdress even more but seeing that I have a pretty dimorphic build and am hairy means I can't really look good in women's clothes :/
test
>>77539220I super bored and wish I could do something cool
>>77539361>making smiling
>>77539423its true people do not be making the smiling at you in the gyms unless they have gift cards they do not want you to redeem
>>77539355Its actually wild when I think about the past and how casually friendly everyone was. People were always talking. Like non-stop.
>>77539220Moved out after a five year relationship. New job is in the background check phase, hopefully it'll be fine and I'll be able to afford my own place with the first salary.Depression and pain from the loss are slowly fading. Still sad, but better now.Guilt remains, but it's okay. Maybe next time I'll do better.
>>77539536Did you cheat anon?
>>77539541No, failed to communicate, fought for three month over stupid shit non-stop.We wanted different things, she wants to travel, be a digital nomad(and can afford it) and I'm a nester who lost his job by sperging out at a newly hired exec over his rape charges.
>>77539241>tfw 18yo and 11 monthstime's up soon... I'll miss this place, guys
Slop vs anti-slop is the battle of barbarism vs civilization.
>>77539548Ah, got ya, hey man I'm in the same boat as you. The moving, the gf, failed communication.Granted I have a hard time talking about feelings and shit. But she knew I loved her and I knew she loved me. And the dumb arguments/negativity. 7 years together, 2 years living together. Shit happens. You can only grow from everything, as long as you can accept and work on what went wrong. Thats what i've been doing, it hurts but we're men. We have to push through.Don't worry friend, WAGMI.
>>77539571WAGMI, anon, we are. Just gotta be better next time than the last.
>>77539229I just saw one for the first time a few weeks ago, it was ok I guess. Don't know what I was expecting, wasn't life changing or anything
Did my first weights workout yesterday in a couple weeks after losing some motivation. Awoken today to an insane amount of lower back pain, I can barely walk. I'm never doing another deadlift ever again
>>77539220I got a call from an ex just now. Basically screamed at me asking repeatedly why I’m fucking her life up and ruining her life. Wouldn’t elaborate. Eventually said I’ll figure it out when I get the court paper. Initially feared she was pregnant but now I believe it means she’s threatening false accusations. The end was I went to fuck her and then broke it off, tried to contact her once a day later to see how she was she ignored me so I let it go for good and a week later she suddenly started spam calling and texting me for a month never replied didn’t hear from her for 3 weeks now I got this call today. Kinda worried, mostly just hope she meets a new guy. I think she’s mad because yeah I basically used her for one last fuck but also I don’t think she’s managed to get another guy to stick around and as a last resort she’s trying to bully me into getting back on the hook. Which I’m not doing, she’s fucking insane.I blocked her number just now. I hope this is the end of that and she finds the love of her life.
>>77539640Hope it gets better. Did you dive in too fast? I find it takes a few weeks to build up after a break.
Matched with a Taiwanese cutie who was only in the city for a few days on vacation. Told her I could show her around and we met up in the afternoon. After an hour of showing her the city we started kissing a bit and within the next hour we're making out and im giving her a full body inspection under her clothes which she didn't mind. Was a pretty eventful day to say the least
>>77539674You fucked her too, right?
>>77539648this is why i just goon now fuck normies fuck them
>>77539679>fuck themThat's the one thing you don't seem to be doing.
>>77539676I invited her to my place but she said no and she wanted to get back to the hostel she was staying at. Honestly it was still a huge win considering I didn't even have to pay or work for that shit like my western women expect nowadays
I've given up on the idea of finding love. Not gonna settle down either, I suppose I'll die a virgin and obtain enlightenment or something like a monk.
Stemfag here, im getting filtered by my last year of masters, the worst part is that I really need to have good grades to keep being in Europe, I don't want to go back to my shithole country.
I make so little progress working out. I find it difficult to keep a routine because of soreness or desire, and I don't think I eat enough protein.
>>77539220i lost a lot of weight. people around me notice, but only mention it very briefly. is this because they are out of shape themselves?
>>77539229Are you a test-tube baby? Everyone has at least seen 1 vagina IRL
>>77539733they probably figure u are just driving up their health insurance premiums by taking those thousand dollar a month fatty pills big pharma is pushing now
I need to fix my brain asap. I just turned 28. I've done nothing. I've achieve nothingd. I'm working towards nothing.All I do is go to work, go home, work out, cook meals, and sleep. There's so much I want to do, but I don't know how to take the first step and actually start doing things instead of just daydreaming about them at work.>I want to learn how to paint>I go out and buy a bunch of painting supplies>I read a bunch of art history books>then the paints just end up sitting on my desk collecting dust.>I want to write a story>I daydream about ideas>I watch a bunch of videos on how to construct a narrative>then I never end up writing anything.This has been the story of my life for as long as I can remember and I've never been able to break the cycle of laziness. I don't want to end up at the end of my 30s looking back on the prime of my life and realize I did absolutely nothing with it, just like how I look back on my wasted high school and college years now. Fuck.
>>77539648don't stick your dick in crazy, the aftermath is not worth it.
>>77539745i dont use weight loss pills or injections, i have been lifting for a year.
>>77539648document everything
>>77539746>looking back on the prime of my lifeyou're not even in the prime of your life for anything creative. People that actually write stories or paint want to express something. No one cares what some snot nosed kid in his bedroom with no experience has to say. Get some real life experience that changes you and gives you something worth expressing on paper. Even if they're shitty experiences. Sitting and trying to imagine shit out of thin air isn't expressing anything true or of value. Do something and write about it, don't write to do something.
Why does everybody care so much about what other people think about them? It's like they're scared to be themselves.I can't even really get along with young people because of this. My "best friends" are these old boomers at my job who don't care and say crazy shit with no filter.
>>77539220where is that turtle garage guy? how's the turtle doing?
>>77539796Hyper-feminine socialization, reputation destruction, gossip and lies erode social capital and standing (not really, but because more and more men are doing it, yeah kinda) but this is how zoomers have been socialized
My recovery sucks because I have no wife to snuggle with
how do you even squat nigga my legs can not stay flat even half way down
>>77539993Just use more weight. Crush yourself down bro
>>77539993lmao @ u
>>77539220Yo
>>77539220I usually avoid these threads but I gotta talk to someone. My girlfriend recently moved in, and Im regretting it terribly. She kept pushing moving in, and I told her fine, but my expectation is that she cleans half the time and takes care of dinner half the time or id wager we'd last 3 months. In return since my company pays my rent she gets free rent with no utities in Seattle one of the most expensive cities for housing in America. We are now 6 weeks in, and every week ive been responsible for dinner at least 4 of the 7 days, she does the dishes half the time and her laundry, but hasnt touched the vacuum swiffer or toilet since moving in, so those become my jobs, and she legit bitches when she's not hungry that she has to take care of dinner. This week I just dissolved it, and said we're responsible for feeding ourselves from now on. I'm also tired of the fact if I dont buy us tickets to a show or concert, plan a date, drive us to a hike, she just sits around the house, so this weekend, when she started organizing her stuff I just straight up ditched her. Pretty sure she hasnt eaten both nights she was in bed by the time I got home at 7:30 tonight.I dont think she realizes how deadly serious I am that she's out in six weeks, but i dont know what to do. Im 32 im looking for someone to have kids with and help raise them, not another child to raise. Sorry kids mommy isnt making dinner tonight cause shes not hungry. Modern women are so shit. Oh look another bitch who doesnt want to plan or pay for shit, but wants to be seen as an equal.Anyway sorry for the Ted talk, thanks for letting me vent fit.
>>77539746I'm the same and almost the same age. You probably shouldn't read this but I've realized that I don't want it hard enough. I love all kinds of art, it's one of the things that makes life worth living and I like the idea of making art but I don't want it hard enough. I've come to term with it at least for the time being. In the future maybe but for now I'm chilling
>wife went out for a drink with friends >didn't cheat or fuck around at all and give me an excuse How can I escape without the relationship breakdown being my fault and looking like the bad guy?
I HATE JUMPER'S KNEE
>>77539220>Haven't smoked weed since January >Sudden, massive urge to do so >Currently job searching (am unemployed loser) and also waiting for waivers to (re)join the military (Reserve) >Prone to panic attacks >Am scared I will get high and be overwhelmed by the thought of my recruiter or a hiring manager being like "ay yo everything looks good so I scheduled you for a drug test tomorrow morning lmao if you don't show up I will immediately permanently blacklist you" >Also earlier this year I told my (hot) psychiatrist I've been pushing myself to get drunk and high more often but have been unsuccessful. She looked confused. I think I'm putting several layers of overthinking into this and there is much wrong with me.
Lemon iced tea plz. I'm still fucking stuck stinking. I'm considering a treatment that cost 2300$ where they just microwave my accrine and apocrine glands under my arms. I don't even have hyperhydrosis, I'm just desperate for something. Because at that point I've done it all.And also the price man...I tightly break even every months or so and If I start digging in my safety net for that shit I won't be able to build it back.
>>77540505why the fuck would you have to push yourself to get drunk and high?
>>77540522I often wonder the same thing. I think it's due to a combination of overthinking and a low bar to pretend like my self control projects an aura of superiority over others, which is ironic both because I don't even have anything against doing drugs and my "self control" is clearly some deep-rooted sense of fear that I am failing to stop from controlling my life.
>>77539746you think you want to do all these things but you dont. just accept it. we are all the same, being honest with yourself is the first step.
Just coffee About to turn 30 in November and really reflecting on my life a decade ago. When I was 19 my mom lost her job and we were a few months away from being evicted. My dad who was once fairly wealthy went broke around that time and at times I had to pay for his groceries and even his 800 dollar cellphone bill. Now I'm 29 and very well off to the point I can retire in my mid 40s with 2.5 million dollars. Honestly my main addiction in life has always been money and my biggest fear is going broke. I think that's why I don't want to get married since I can lose half that shit and end up in a similar position
Addicted to world of warcraft forever . Been skipping gym to play it it's okay though I'm still jacked
>>77540592get a stationary bike and grind out miles while you erp with your orc boyfriend
>>77540592they're designing it to last forever, it's in the name, why grind
>>77540582Interesting larp
Is it over as a 180cm 100kg wristlet, 26 year old dyel that has never done anything past minimal gym class in middle school. Do I even bother this shit is fucked man
>>77540952Lift some weights then faggot
>>77540952Are you retarded? What exactly would be over?
>>77539724>I really need to have good grades to keep being in Europeyou should go back to your shithole country, they need bright individuals like yourself.
Feels good having an EU and US passport
>>77540962Uhhh my ability to look like a normal healthy person and not a skinnyfat gamer goblin for the rest of my life I guessvirgin btw
>>77541001You're 26 not 66 retard you're not even in your prime yet
>>77539336Well done.
>>77541001Post body
I did some genetic testing the other day and found out that I have a rare neuromuscular disorder that causes diminished muscle tone. This is probably why I still look DYEL even after two years of lifting.I've come to terms with the fact that I will never be big no matter what I do, but I'm still not going to give up lifting or getting as big as I possibly can. Meanwhile, I'm going to look into emomaxxing or K-popmaxxing so I can at least appeal to some women despite my perma-DYEL frame.
>>77540952you should give up like you already have. it's really alpha
>>775409521/2/2/3 is achievable in 3-4 months flat with the right program. At your height, 1/2/3/4.
>>77540912Not a larp you poor faggot. I just saved 200k at 29 and can hit 2.5 million by 46 as long as we don't enter a decade long depression.
>my dear dad (68) has been fat for most of the past decade, generally hovering right below or above the obesity mark>he used to be relatively fit before that, but a stack of chronic injuries have left him unable to exercise with any consistency, even walking around the neighborhood causes some mild pain>moved back in with my parents a few months ago cuz I lost my job so I get to see his daily eating habits up close>his meals are square mainly because my mum does most of the cooking, so of course it's the snacking that ruins his diet>can't buy anything sweet without his fat ass devouring it within a few days>doesn't help that he makes himself a couple drinks a day>whenever my mum brings it up with him he just complains that it's "not possible" for him to drop the weight>they're both retired, but my dad spends every day buried in a screen either scrolling Instagram reels or watching sports talk showsIt drives me insane to see him like this. To top it all off his hearing has also been getting worse over the last couple years, so I dread to think what he's going to be like even five years from now. Losing weight isn't going to fix all his physical problems, but it would sure as hell make them more bearable.
>>77541228Get him on ozempic or another glp, provided there are no risks specific to any conditions he has. It seems obvious he won't lose the weight the regular way and at this point it's more likely that the whatever negatives might come from a glp will be far outweighed by increased life expectancy and quality. The older you get the bigger a health risk being fat becomes.
>>77541140>>77541035imIM HOPINGIM HOOOOPING IM GONNA WORK OUUUUT POSITIVE AFFIRMATION!!
>>77541226Sure thing kiddo
>>77541265not him but 200k at 29 isn't much at all. a plumber or electrician in the midwest could save that much after working for 6-8 years lol why are you acting like he said he saved 5 million
>>77541267>Not himSure thing buddy
>>77541270you sound upset and poor. im sorry you havent been able to save up any money but you can do it too
My life is boring and sucks, should I take money out of my investments and just buy a car that I want?
