getting older has the positive trait so you basically stop caring about everything and you accept that sooner or later you will die anyway, much less pressure and stress

the negative is that you also get back pain

When you're bellow 30 you will believe and put hope in two types of memes that people will tell you, and you might even believe these simultaneously
>women more mature than you will definitely go for a young guy like you, your time will come (soon)
>younger women definitely go for older men, your time will come (one day)

Both of these will be proven false once you are older, never wait of put hope in some cliche.

It made love life to get older because it made me realize, that at least my existence, was just an ironic joke. I cared very little when I was young but until my teens, started caring a lot in my 20s as I had nothing and felt so much behind and like I'll never have anything. But those things I always wanted came too late and took to much effort so much so that I completely lost the initial desire for them. At some point in time I had completely lost the ability to feel FOMO or regret and it was exactly then that I started having more a social life (rather late), dating more, getting laid a lot more. Now all I do is post here, drink, work, pay off my mortgage, enjoy my garden and see my kids every other week.
>>
>>226008978
This never worked for me, if I care or don't care nothing comes from it. It's the same.

FOMO is also gone. When you spend enough new years and such alone it's stops meaning anything.

>>226008905
I'll do you a kindness. I was eventually forced to go out and socialize as a way to survive and live. The world around me was crumbling. I was 25 at the time. You're gonna look like a retard and it's fine. People might even call you a retard. They'll certainly say shit about you when you're gone because years of isolation cannot be simply washed away immediatly, you'll look odd, even maybe communicate oddly.

Life will force you to do that eventually because you'll eventually need something from the outside world. Either that or you'll die. It's gonna hurt no matter when you pick it. It's just that doing it a lot later when forced will usually mean so much time has passed that you've lost a lot along the way.

Good news is, if you're willing to put in consistant effort, day after day, week after week, month after month, eventually you'll be rehabilitated. Maybe not the life of the party. Or the guy with the craziest stories. But enough to have a normal life. To date. To work. To have friends. To see your family. To exist instead of rotting.

And no, there is nothing to avoid said pain. No drug to take or secret trick or opportunity to wait for, it's just something you deal with because if you don't do it now, doing it later will make it worse.

Never get too comfortable in it either otherwise isolation will call you back.

>>226009091
It worked enough for me to start moving in my 20s. It went away in my 30s but the train I started in my 20s carried me through out the rest and eventually, almost naturally, led way to giving me the things I always craved. But by then it was far too late. I felt like a chewing gum whose all taste had been chewed out a long time ago. Tried to fake it until I make it thinking it would give me my taste back. Once it's gone it's gone. All that's left is waiting for it to end and telling younger anons to chase it before their brain starts getting used to isolation and void of a life. I often miss the bad feelings tied to FOMO and caring too much, it meant I had hope back then and could have had a feel good story had I acted earlier.

That will solve nothing and you can always do it tomorrow, while you're grateful for the good things in your life today, until your actual time comes and thus you avoid traumatizing a loved one for life or depriving someone in the future from your useful help or valuable company / words / etc. Do you want to end up in Hell or risk that?

I don't think I'm holding up anymore, I think I let go.
Meditation has gotten to the point where I often fall asleep during the practice. Last time I was in the final stages of falling asleep when i started back awake and felt an intense shock go through my body before drifting off again.
It's hard to call anything progress when I have a serious lack of coherent understanding of processes like samadhi and shunyata. Either way I'm pushing onward.
All my efforts have come to nothing more or less despite my most sincere efforts the human world chewed me up and spat me out every way anyone with any investment in a human life would ever care. The friend or two I have are busy with their own lives, I'm estranged from most of my family and I'd be worse off if I weren't. I cannot relate to my fellow man anymore, I don't live the life they live, I don't see what they see, I don't hope or dream. They're irritants digging holes I see no value in at the cost of everything and everyone around them. I jack off sometimes though it feels more to pass the time than anything else, like a hobby I stopped enjoying years ago but still do in lieu of boredom.
I just have no drive to drag myself out of any hole or "do" anything. I don't see the point, and progressing blindly has at every point in my past only lead to worse disaster than stagnation. So despite all evidence suggesting nothing will improve until I change something, there is nothing that seems changeable and nowhere to go that would adjust the variables. I'm in a car, there's no road, no fuel and nothing on the horizon to drive towards. I really don't understand anything anymore, the more I try the more lost I feel. So I've just stopped, I'm developing my soul as far as I can and waiting for the end to come, it feels 10 years overdue as is.

this is what I don't get, I can understand necessity for the sake of paying bills or whatever, but that aside? why bother?
The relationships aren't good, the dates lead to nothing, the work is just trading your life for survival. There's no distinction between existing and rotting. Being active without passion is just rotting in motion.
>otherwise isolation will call you back
what else would be the reasonable response? painful agitated rotting or painful stagnant rotting, what's the value in making the transition? do you enjoy vapid exchanges that much? you like being used and poked and prodded? Why?

Eventually I just accepted that I will die alone. It isn't an easy thing to accept, but with time it gets easier. The shame and disappointment you can see on your parents faces never gets easier, but what can you do?

Some people kill themselves, others go on violent rampages. Acceptance is the only way to avoid destruction.

>>226011692
I think one of the most annoying aspect of the users of 4chan is their inability to realize that something having flaws doesn't mean it automatically disqualifies it. Nothing is perfect. A relationship has its flaws but it's better than rotting alone jerking off and posting on imageboards. Dates can be a pain in the ass but they can lead to relationships and it's better than going home to watch anime. Work is indeed a charge but having money is better than being poor, upgrading your life is better than just rotting or watching it downgrade.

You assume the trade off is negative or neutral. The trade off is positive. Being active without passion is the first step towards leaving the world of rot, that isn't hard to get. Porn addicts who jerk off everyday pretend they don't seek relationships. Weebs who watch shows about people making/having friends and having fun times pretend IRL it's always a net negative to have a social life. Just insanity to rationalize idleness. Rotting is rotting. Staying alone and waiting is rotting. Any form of agitation by design goes against the concept of rotting away because different aspects of your being aren't independant (your rational mind is tied to your reptilian brain, etc...).

Pretending that rotting away is the same as living is peak delusion. It's the stage before either before regret or reaching a point of no return that will do nothing but eventually lead to your total separation from the world.

You come here to have an emulation of social interactions yet pretend you're above human needs and see them as vapids, and you critcize everything but never propose alternatives. I don't mean to be rude because I'm sure you've suffered, but you're a dangerous cancer. Feeble minds read your nonsense and mistake clear brain damage as depth. The only depth in rot is enthropy.

>inb4 oh but you get some good times

>Work is indeed a charge but having money is better than being poor
not if you have no time or agency to spend it and expend your health on getting it.
>upgrading your life is better than just rotting or watching it downgrade
again, upgrading to what? is rotting in a mansion more meaningful to you? why?
>The trade off is positive
I'm not seeing any positive points so far
>Being active without passion is the first step towards leaving the world of rot, that isn't hard to get
Tried this for years all it breeds is resentment for not getting output you somehow feel should spawn from a system that is obviously not producing it. by that logic if I rotted long enough I'd gain a passion for it
>Porn addicts who jerk off everyday pretend they don't seek relationships
it's called coping, do you mock people without legs for trying to get prosthetics?
>Weebs who watch shows about people making/having friends and having fun times pretend IRL it's always a net negative to have a social life
sure having good friends is better than not having any, but having bad ones is worse than having none and there's no guarantee you'll get any good ones within a lifetime, plenty don't
>Just insanity to rationalize idleness
as opposed to insanity to rationalizing work, you're the one arguing against instinct and the outcomes don't look good, just like more cope. As if because people say that's how you should feel about activities that's how you will feel about them regardless of outcome.

No offense but I don't think you've ever dated anyone. I think you're a smart guy and spent a lot of time on ther internet reading about what others experienced and think at this point you might as well have lived the thing. But that's not true. Knowing about something, especially cherrypicked parts, isn't akin to living it. Pretending there is nothing to upgrade in life is pure delusion that can be easily broken by taken away your PC, place to live given to you and easy access to food or medical services (it's not limited to just that btw).

You're a liar and arguing with liars is pointless. Lying on an anonymous board takes no risk. You can just do it. And you can just say make up annoying whatever the other guy says.

You mention too many hypotheticals to not be completely lying about being somehow who mostly lived instead of mostly spent his time idle sulking and reading things online.

It's insane to rationalize having a life and existing and it's mentally insane to argue for people to jerk off on the computer and wait while having pain as much as possible (people who do that end up feeling more pain in their lifetime than those who simply live, they just delay it).

Discourse is impossible without transparancy since genuine disinterest honesty is very rare.
>>
>>226015092
>>226015810
>Staying alone and waiting is rotting
and staying around people that don't care about you and working is also rotting
>Any form of agitation by design goes against the concept of rotting away
and yet it doesn't make death any less inevitable, doesn't make life any more pleasurable, doesn't make passion spawn from nothing and doesn't produce meaning. Ergo there is no meaningful distinction except for the sake of itself. Is a rolling rock more meaningful than a stationary one? By what logic?
>because different aspects of your being aren't independant
I see no connection between this and the previous point, do you mean to say your mind is healthier if you move around? plenty of the people you describe as rotting work out at home, doesn't change anything.
>Pretending that rotting away is the same as living is peak delusion
Again, the only reasoning you've listed just makes it sound like you're the one desperately grasping for delusion to justify your choices
>It's the stage before either before regret or reaching a point of no return that will do nothing but eventually lead to your total separation from the world
it's the stage before you either do something or don't do something, illuminating
>You come here to have an emulation of social interactions yet pretend you're above human needs and see them as vapids
Yes I came here to talk. That doesn't mean I'm above human needs, I said I understood the need to do this to a certain degree in my first reply, I did not understand the motivation to do it beyond necessity since it produces no positive results.
>and you critcize everything but never propose alternatives
I don't have alternatives, I've tried yours and they don't produce results
Me not having an answer to a problem doesn't make your answer good, I don't know how to do a c-section either that doesn't mean taking a shank and hoping for the best is then an optimal solution.

I'm 29 and I guess I'm a pedo. It's not even that I'm not attracted to women my age but I still find girls in late teens physically attractive. Would I want a relationship with a kid? No absolutely not, that's fucking weird, but the general sentiment I've gotten from women is that they think it's creepy for guys to find young women attractive and as I've gotten older my taste (for what I find physically attractive) has expanded but it hasn't really narrowed at all
>>
>>226015092
>>226016059
>I don't mean to be rude because I'm sure you've suffered, but you're a dangerous cancer
yeah that's not rude at all
if your approach to life can be compromised by reason then I'm not sure I'm the cancer. Just because you don't like the outcome doesn't make it any less true.
>Feeble minds read your nonsense and mistake clear brain damage as dept
Such as your own, I suppose since your idea of meaning is pursuing goals which produce nothing because doing something is better than doing nothing. Start drowning infants, it's better than sitting at home by your logic.
>The only depth in rot is enthropy.

>>226016092
>That's because you're a weird schizoid or something
actually you're 100% correct on this one. I've been in two relationships and broke them both off relatively early because they didn't really add anything to my life. I was just as happy single as I was in the relationship so all I notice are the negative aspects. Sex is nice but it's not worth everything else

>oh you said x???? what about that time when x didn't work and y worked instead
I thought we could have an honest conversation instead of you feeling like you're on /pol/ or a random forum trying to win a debate, instead you're doing this shit. I can walk outside, but it can so happen that I sprain my ankle, therefore walking at all is trash and I should avoid it.
You haven't tried anything and this conversation is pointless. Have fun with this existence of trying to gaslight underage retards into thinking having fun, getting a job and existing beyond your bedroom has nothing positive over being an internet addicted porn addicted hikikomori.

I've been married, your view of the world is built on shallow assumptions, rather than the inconvenient truths you prefer to ignore while you peddle a cookie cutter reality where you close your eyes, cover your ears, walk blindly where the person in front of you is and call that living because they do.
>Pretending there is nothing to upgrade in life is pure delusion
yet you cannot effectively verbalize any meaningful action when asked, you just claim it's self evident. A relationship is good because it is said to be good. What if the woman stabs you in the stomach and steals all your money, was it still good? Can you admit that much nuance at least if not the underpinning vapidity of the experience once it comes to its conclusion?
>You mention too many hypotheticals to not be completely lying
I'm starting to think you haven't actually experienced anything in life if you struggle so completely with the idea of having negative experiences around other people.
>It's insane to rationalize having a life and existing and it's mentally insane to argue for people to jerk off on the computer and wait while having pain as much as possible
sane or not you've failed to rationalize your side of the argument, you just keep repeating yourself, it's circular logic at this point.
>You're a liar and arguing with liars is pointless
again, if that needs to be true for your worldview to survive then you're lying to yourself worse than I am.
>>
>>226016250
>I can walk outside, but it can so happen that I sprain my ankle, therefore walking at all is trash and I should avoid it.
the odds of spraining your ankle when going outside is low so there is some feasible benefit, though ultimately the gain of doing so is negligibly small.
The odds of a relationship going well are far far worse than playing russian roulette. How many times do you touch a hot stove before you understand? On average at least.
>You haven't tried anything and this conversation is pointless
Lying to yourself again.
>Have fun with this existence of trying to gaslight underage retards into thinking having fun, getting a job and existing beyond your bedroom has nothing positive over being an internet addicted porn addicted hikikomori
I have a job, I have a house, I've been to 4 continents, I've been married. None of this has any bearing on the argument. You listed a handful of bad excuses for why going out and trying to connect with people is more meaningful and worth the pain as opposed to not doing so and none of them held up to the slightest scrutiny, after that you just started calling me a liar and thinking in circles.

The point here is you're not wrong for doing what you want to do, but you are wrong for thinking any of it brings any more purpose or meaning to you than doing nothing would and your idea that meaning springs from doing meaningless things is a lie to help feed the delusion you use to cope with that fact. There is nothing meaningful about any of it, you can do it or you can not do it. A rotting neet is no less alive than you are except by the consensus of others invested in the same delusion. You are and one day you will no longer be, that is all. Fucking more women and talking to more people about anything doesn't change that and it won't have made the process greater or lesser. It's just some shit you can do. So go do it, why would the truth bother you so much?

40 year old virgin here. I threw in the towel in my late 20s and I almost never come into contact with attractive women so mostly those urges stay dormant and don't bother me.

However, this year at work I was relocated to a new floor with a number of comely young ladies (compared to my last workspace, which had none) and I spent the summer besotted with a chick 14 years younger than me.

Which means you're never truly dead inside, for good or for ill (mostly ill).

I constantly fuck up on my diet and binge eat, I just can't get over all the missed opportunities in my life so I convince myself in the moment that it's so over and I'll never make it anyway so I might as well eat. Then afterwards I feel like shit, but I do the same the next day anyway. It's true I don't have much going for me, but I feel my daily life and work would be a lot easier if I wasn't a fat fuck. Any advice?

for the very first time, a woman rejected me for being too old. i'm 35 and she was 25.

what happened to the half your age plus 7 rule?

>>226022253
Are you sure it was because you were too old? Maybe you're just a creep and she was letting you off easy.

>>226022434
she dropped nonverbal hints of attraction so I started talking to her. Within 24 hours she was asking me if I was familiar with a kissing game she played back in high school. While being extremely fidgety, she asked how old I was and when I told her 35 she immediately muttered to herself "ten years older than me"

You all could've hired a hooker or two if you wanted to. If you didn't, it's because you were too afraid of women and intimacy.
Or you had romantic delusions like "my first time has to be super romantic and special!!!"
I guess the Americans at least have the excuse that prostitution is illegal and very expensive. But plenty of dudes still fly to another country for sex tourism so yeah.

She didn't drop you because of your age, but rather because you were insecure about it. What you experienced is called a "shit test".
All women you're dating or courting will at some point throw you a curve ball, say something very rude out of the blue, or in some other way test if you're strong and confident or not.

This is universal woman behavior, by the way. ALL women do this without exception. Even the "nice good girls" do this.
The fact that she shit-tested you means (or meant) that she was interested in you.
If she didn't have any interest in you she wouldn't even be paying attention to you or ever initiating conversations with you.
>>
>>226024325
usually with a shit test it's her fishing for a reaction. how was this a shit test? what was he supposed to do, dodge the question? just honestly answering and not seeming bothered by it would be the correct response if it really was a shit test
>>
>>226024354
>just honestly answering and not seeming bothered by it would be the correct response if it really was a shit test
True. He most likely showed signs of shame or insecurity when she said "ten years older than me" and she picked up on that.
Anything that lets her know that you feel inadequate, needy, or "not good enough" for her will fail the shit test.
Everything in life is sales. If you don't believe in your product, nobody will buy it. And a lot of the time, the product is YOU.

Western leftist anti-white progressives and their Jew masters have ruined the world. Not a single shred of beauty or joy remains in it. I have no prospects or hope in the future, there is nothing left for me in the remaining four or five decades of life other than to watch these bastards suffer and die. Not just any death, but to die screaming in as much pain and terror as possible. I want them to die in ways the human mind has yet to conceive. Every single sneering, smirking holier than thou American or Britroach virtue signalling godless leftist progressive who celebrates and supports immigration, shitskins, transsexuals, pedophiles, Muslims, groomers, feminists, the whole leftist Jew ensemble.

I am not rich by any means, I make about 10,000 dollars a month and have about a million in savings, but if I could give any part of it to make a liberal die painfully as possible I'd give it without hesitation. I want to pay for them and their children to be tortured on Liveleak like that ring of rich Westerners who paid Indonesians to torture baby monkeys for their amusement. I will dedicate the rest of my life and energies to this one objective, to hoarding enough wealth and resources to make this a reality. If I could pay for just one Judeo-Western leftist to suffer and die, meaning and happiness will be restored to my life once again

Not really. It was lower but the average age a woman got married at in the 1700s was still around 25-27. Not exactly the age you pedos dream about

>how do you cope?
Soft coping: watch some videos about women being retarded sluts that break others man life due to failed relationship and you will appreciate that "mby i didn't get laid, by at least i dont need to pay child support for 20 more years"

Hard cope: look at footage of children with severe disabilities. Children who cannot even move and who would give everything they have just to possess even a tenth of the capabilities you have. And yet, you want to take your own life simply because you haven’t managed to stick your penis inside a woman for five minutes.

This is very much real. I'm 36 and younger people treat me normally, women 10, 15 years younger than me approach me to talk and stuff, but once they learn my age I can feel their disgust. They stop initiating conversation and get awkward.
What am I supposed to do? I'm not gonna lie about my age, I feel like that's even worse, not to mention wrong.

I dunno man, I just want to avoid contact with others as much as I can nowadays. That shit hurts.
>>
>>226022508
>>226031623
I think the lesson to be learned here is yes, you absolutely should lie. Maybe even falsify any documents you can to hide your real age.

You may be thinking, the foundation of a relationship should not be built on lies. But if the roles were reversed, know that bitches would think absolutely nothing of lying, cheating against you without undue stress on their conscience

if it was a shit test, then I passed with flying colors because I didn't even realise what was happening until after I came home that night. That's why I kept talking to her for a long time afterwards, to see if that truly was a deal breaker or if she would start flirting again. after her age gap comment I just kept talking about other stuff as if nothing was out of the ordinary (because I truly believed that at the time).

25yo can barely grasp turning 30 so imagine bumping into some guy who's 30+5. What did he do in life to be alone when most people have a kid by then? Where's his fancy job or things worth waking up for? She realises maybe at 35 she'll be at the same old mediocre job doing mediocre things and it freaks her out and you're collateral damage in this whole conversation. Just a guess but I've worked with plenty 18-30 year olds at my last few jobs and it's always the same story of dread over and over so don't get baited by girls who don't know what they want.

God damn you were really seething. I left early, come back now and the thread is still up.

My idea of meaning is the thing that has consistently given meaning and satisfaction to the lives of people. You propose no alternative. And what results from this lack of atlernative is a way of living that is overwhelmingly proven to be associated with a wayyy shittier live than you'd have just being a normie. Keep seething.

>>226016444
You were never married. Now that this was adressed, I'lll answer the rest. The "inconvenient truths" you refuse to see are the facts that jobless virgins have vastly worst lives than working sex havers. On all metrics. You're more depressed, more prone to alcoholism, suicide, even chronic illness, and so on and so forth.

I verbalized them over and over but you just refused to acknowledge them. Why? Because your life is over and it's also shit. You're probably old. In your 30s or later. You have no one around and you don't work. You can't turn it back around. So you come here to cope and pretend it's all the same, that no one has ever been happy from a relationship, that your lifestyle is just fine and totally isn't depression inducing, and other insanity.
>A relationship is good because it is said to be good
You're probably just mentally ill. Trying to argue with a mentally ill dude like you is like trying argue with a guy who loves eating poop. You're not interested in what normal humans (even animals) naturally seek and instead of admitting you're just some kind of failed human, you pretend none of the things people value are actually that great. With no evidence to that. With just nothing other than how you feel. Despite the overwhelming evidence that people who have normal lives and relationships and friends and sex and a job and who go out have a vastly better life than creatures who decided to deny existence and rot away until death. The logical evolution of your philosophy is immediate suicide.

>w-what i-if when you go outside a big meteorite falls on your head and you like die or something o algo! doesn't that mean you should never go out or that going out to do things isn't necessarily better than staying in the basement all day like me??? touché

>i struggle to understand per capita so i'll just say that you know, you lack nuance
Lol

>having negative experiences around people means living isn't worth it! last night i had a tummy ache, that's proof i should have never existed! it's so much more fulfilling to jerk off everyday, make threads about no gf, and cry in my bed, because one time someone was mean to me and a girl once rejected me!
I won't even bother arguing that overall engaging in the world is a net positive because to you exceptions to the rule are the norms since they justify your insanity

>you have no argument! you have no sense! nobody in the history of ever has claimed what you've been saying! there's no evidence that being a normie is better than watching anime and jerking off to illegal shit like me!

>>226016685
>all relationships go bad! most of them do! that's true because the words on the internet told me o algo (the ones i chose to read teehee)
Powerful. Trying to gaslight edgy teens reading this shit into a terrible alternative of a life because relationships can end. Btw, overwhelming evidence shows that people who date/have dated have a way higher life satisfaction than long term celibates. Doesn't that kinda show you're full of shit? ^_^ teehee

You don't have any of these things. You think you're smart enough to know what it's like to have them. You're not. Seeing what it's like to have it is never the same as having it. You have no arguments. Not a single rational one.
>>
>>226016685
Nothing you've been saying has any substance. None of it. It all relies entirely on the notion that what I described isn't a foolproof method to happiness or satisfaction. It's so stupid I can't even begin go fathom you're sentient. It's like some proto-AI or a brain damaged teen from the third world.

I am not wrong because unlike you I don't base my world vision on my narrow experience. It is objective that having a relationship or having had one is superior to remaining alone. You struggle to understand the notion of per capita. This is because you're stupid.

You're stupid and crazy enough to even argue that having a loved one, having kids and having fun time with friends doesn't bring purpose or meaning to people when compared to your alternatives which are, doing nothing and coping alone in a room. Meaning doesn't come from the lastest flavor of the month book or youtube video some pseud read last week, it isn't a construct. If you can't feel what I described it's probably because on top of being stupid, you're mentally ill. Probably a schizoid which is frequent here. Look it up.
>no less alive
Yes, that was the point of all this, whether neets are dead or not... You're painfully stupid.

The only truth bothering anyone here is both the objective and anecdotal evidence out there that normal beings seek love and community and bonds over nothingness. And that you're most likely a schizoid if you don't see any innate value in the things I mentionned. You need help, I mean this entirely. Get a shrink.
>>
This is not the first performance by this French lad, who has very strong feelings about someone living a life different from his.
>>
>>226036297
You're parroting his argument. Typical schizo shit pretending having strong feelings is somehow bad and being indifferent and passive is good.

I'll say this... If your "alternatives" are so great, how come anons here are mostly unhappy with not having girlfriends, not having a job, not living a normal life, etc... If you're fine with it, that's your life. That's not the issue. How can you not see that the issue is that you are trying to make it so that this alternative is any good while being walking everyday displays that it's fucking garbage far worse than any of the complications tied to employment or having a relationship (they exist).

>I just don't like people anyways
Schizoid
>I just love being alone and don't need anyone
Schizoid
>I don't care that much about sex or having a romantic relationship with a woman
Schizoid
