You're teIling me that I should just put on my big boy boots, and work 40 hour weeks as an old man (25) in the same exact way as a normie who deflowered his 15yo gf, went to parties, made memories that will keep him going until he dies?Why?The best part of your life is 0 - 25, after that it's just coping until you die. Even the "successful" normies I know who make 6 figures live pretty mundane boring lives. Why should I work my ass off just to get to where they are and be only slightly less miserable than I am when I can do absolutely nothing and only be a little more miserable?There's no going back.. Women my age are ran through whores who gave their best years to other men. I'll have to work harder in every possible metric, such as money, car, sex skills, general attitude just to get a very much diminished version of what 15 year olds get for simply existing

>>84761183you're the most relatable poster on this board as a fellow 25 year old who gathered 0 experiences or memories growing up and is now depressed and miserable every day and has no desire to work or serve the system in any way. the only thing that would make me happy would be getting to be a teen again in a sprawling metropolis like New York instead of a decrepit Eastern European village and getting go to crazy and live life to the fullest alongside other teens without thinking about long term consequences or the concept of tomorrow.
>>84761233I'm glad to know that someone identifies with me. Besides being able to live in a city with opportunities, I also hope that my environment will encourage my curiosity and desire to learn. My life has simply shown me that I was powerless, that I couldn't change anything. I want live teenager with the feeling that I have an impact on my life and the world, and knowing that I have friends who truly care about me reinforces that feeling.
>>84761183A society that promotes individualism is such a good thing for those who get all the support and encouragement in the world, which they take for granted of course, and still claim you simply have to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and make something of yourself, or whatever empty platitude comes to their tiny brains at the moment, as if all the things they were able to achieve weren't either presented to them on a silver platter or only gained because of years of their loved ones building them up into a person who can endure the harshness of life.Those of us who weren't so fortunate to get an environment that gave us a sense of self, worth, love and memories that could keep us going despite the hardships we will face, have to wrestle everyday with the realization that we were completely abandoned to our own devices and with no guidance or help from others. Now, we are expected to be part of this society that denied us so much to the point of feeling like inhuman husks.Like the other anon, I find your post quite relatable. I'll be 25 at the end of the month and I've been dreading it for years and years and yet never received the inner call for action, for change seems a fool's errand at this point and I might've even grown content with the numbing loneliness that has marked my everyday existence for the past 8 years.
>>84761183You can still grab some happiness and make some memories. In my late 20s right as I was about to cross into wizarddom as an everythingless virgin, I got a gf who had just turned 20. We only lived together a few years but these memories keep me going. It's bittersweet because I'll probably never find another proper relationship though. And I'll never be anyone's first anything. It is what it is.
>>84761183Those 15yo almost certainly don't know what they had, and/or it went with agony for the soul because obviously the relationship was bound to end some horrible way.
>>84761531I hope that every day I die I could never accept that. The years of old age cannot be filled solely by the years of youth, only in the hope of something significantly inferior to what normal people have experienced. We will never have, no matter what we achieve in life, even becoming a billionaire will never erase this void.
