35 year old KHHV perpetually alone movie lover with life crippling social anxiety herei have already wasted about $300 this year booking movie tickets but not going just to have something to do with my money and time cause cause going to work and coming home to watch movies and shows all the time has me feeling like i'm living the same year over and over again and i can't do it anymore, i need the cinema to escape from the monotony of going to work and coming home but someday i can't bring myself to go cause it feel like an effort leaving the house to go and sit in another dark room alone only with other people there to give me some semblance of community around me.i'm tired of the loner life but it's the only one i know.also was going to see some kids movies in theatres but can't bring myself to do it cause i know families with parents close to my age will be there and that will add to my sense of social shame and failure
>>218010101>was going to see some kids movies in theatresUm, why? You're an adult. Maybe this is why nobody wants to hang out with you.
>>218010125i like movies, all kindsi'm not above a film for kids, they are made by adults for all audiences
>>218010101Have you considered killing yourself?
imagine being this much of a pathetic beta cuckno one is paying any attention to you retard
>>218010145what do you think?perpetually suicidal since i was 17 but live in hope of something changing for the better, think that's a fairly common adult experience though
>>218010101a real loser doesn't even go to the theater.
>>218010101You sound and act like a fucking faggot lmaooo
>>218010151>no one is paying any attention to you retardyeah exactly, that's part of the problem, going through life alone is hard, especially when facing it publicly the shame i feel about being seeing alone in the cinema is all internal and i shouldn't care what strangers around me might think but it's something we all worry about to some extent
>>218010101It sounds like you have nothing to lose and can't get any lower. You might as well go to the cinema and eke out some minor enjoyment from your life.
>>218010207so be iti have no problem with being assumed gay, i am pretty effeminate anyway and i think it's brave to be out and proudnot gay though, just a tired loner that wants to share life with more people but can never find the right people
>>218010221pretty much what i try to do, there is still a lot of shame around doing so cause going out and seeing everyone else able to interact with each other , being accepted, some with partners, families etc, just amplifies the feeling of loneliness and has me wanting to hide away at home again to not face the people who are able to function normally socially
>>218010240Pay attention, you don't sound gay, you sound like a whiny faggot.
>>218010302well yeah, cause i am being one, bottling it up won't get it out of my system
>>218010327Life sucks and you can say it aloud but don't be a whiny faggot about it. No one wants to be around that. Start doing some manly shit. Watch Taxi Driver on repeat and lift weights. Get a vietnam vet jacket. Fucking anything.
>>218010370> watch taxi driverthe movie about the angry loner roughly my age who kills people? probably not the best rec anon
>>218010417Things work out pretty well for him. I would skip the killing part (highly illegal) but take some fucking action in your life.
>>218010101If you lived in Ohio I'd hang w/ you
>>218010512i would if i knew which direction to take that action, getting bit late in life for more trial and error, need one that will actually work out for me this time
>>218010526i'm in shitney australia
How do you make it past the "no singles policy"?
>>218010553Maybe we can go to a massage place together?
>>218010143>films for kids
>>218010101I often notice people on their own in the further in front rows but I never do this myself. I always pick the best seat in the theater and if some normies have to sit more to the side because of me idgaf
>>218010101Nobody gives a shitJust go, enjoy your life and your free time
i havent been to the cinema since TFA
>>218010101>Sorry, Couples only.
>>218010143Yeah you gotta watch them at home, thems the rules old man
>>218010101i feel you op, hope you will be ok and enjoy a kino
>>218010151All the staff probably recognize him and feel bad for him and if he died they'd probably assume the worst but not feel anything about it. >Remember that weird dude?
>>218010101One day I will tell the story of what happened when I went to the cinema with my coworkers but now is not the time. It's still too early, they might be reading this.
>>218010101Holy fuck, dude. Punctuation exists.
>>218011190yeah but my stance on this when it is brought up is that this s 4chan not an English class or work, i'm not going to make gourmet food in a pig trough>>218011163like a care about what a bunch of teenage cinema staff think of me being a regular, least of my concerns, they aren't even my peers anymore>>218011159thanks anon will do>>218011136i do that anyway, just trying to get past the insecurity of seeing one in the cinema as a very childless adult though>>218011110i had not been for 17 years prior to this year, i went from saw 6 to 28 years layer the bone temple, this is a new thing i'm doing, i've seen 26 movies in theatres in the last month
Just get drunk before you go so you have a little liquid courage under your belt
>>218010545No one knows, it's trial end error for everyone, no refunds. Fuck it, just be a whiny faggot, at least you can count on that for the rest of your life. Jesus you're boring.
>he's watching IRON LUNG LMAO
>>218011760nah don't want to depend on alcohol to that extent>>218011773if you aren't entertained by my thread you are welcome to find one that suits you more
most of the time you've been to the cinema there were solo viewers there, do you remember any of them? Probably not. People don't care.if you want a crutch bring a notepad that you scribble on occasionally so people think you're a film critic making notes for a review.
>>218011788saw that in theatres specifically in an 18+ session where i was away from his child fans and could drink just in case it was bad, the movie turned out being ok though
>>218010143>they are made by adults for all audiencesNo, they are made specifically for children and lazy parents who want to shut them up for a few hours. You do not belong in there and everyone probably assumes you're a pedophile creep.
>>218011831the is more a boomer mentalitySpongeBob has a multigeneration fanbase at this point, Zootopia 2 is the 2nd highest grossing animated movie of all time now and had 18+ sessions in my local cinema, they aren't just for kids, even that Hoppers movie coming out next month already has 18+ sessions
>>218010101>HHWhat's this obsession with holding hands among virgins? Holding hands is nothing.
>>218011922just copying the term used here
>>218010101>i'm tired of the loner life but it's the only one i know.I am tooGood luck, anon
>>218010101I went to watch Blade Runner 2049 by myself and the theatre was completely empty except for ONE old guy. Right next to me. He laughed when I sat down. Then tried to make conversation when the movie ended. I escaped.
>>218011922It implies physical touch at the most basic mutual level. It's gay af terminology though.
I went to the cinema alone to watch the Mario movie. Some parents saw me, called me a creep and a pedophile. Had to quickly put my pants back on and leave before they murdered me. It's tough out there for lonely people
>>218010606I don't even get past the no losers sign at my local kinoplex
I don't go see movies unless there's single isolated seats from the rest of the seats. I went to see Marty Supreme and thought I had a whole row for myself, but some fucking asshole sat like 2 seats from me and it kinda ruined the film for me a little bit. I once didn't actually go to a film I bought tickets for because someone took the seat next to me.
>>218010101You're not a loser because you're a loner, you're a loser because you're too much of a fucking woman to enjoy it. It's somewhat acceptable in our ludicrous modern society for a *boy* to feel the way you do, to spend their childhood and teens acting out the social programming forced into them in schools and via media, but you're almost a goddamn middle aged man - reach down between your legs, are there balls there? You've not been gelded? Then stop being such a fucking PUSSY and understand that solitude is the greatest experience a man can enjoy. Use that money to take up a hobby or craft, fuck use it to pay a hooker if that's what you need, but whatever you do take some fucking responsibility for yourself you bleating manchild.There have been times that I spend literally months at a stretch not speaking to another human being beyond superficial pleasantries in passing and when those times pass and I have to go back into the world I fucking *crave* them because assuming you're not a fucking limpdick sadsack faggot solitude is *freedom*. I get to spend time in my garden, I get to build my models, I get to make furniture, I get to go on long bike rides along the coast or in the countryside. If it wasn't absolutely necessary in order to make the money necessary to survive and enable these all too brief periods of beautiful isolation I'd be happy staying that way 99% of the time.But hey maybe that isn't you, maybe you really are a woman-brained poofter who needs social affirmation and external validation to stay sane - the solution is still to stop being a bitch and pursue what it is you need.
>>218010125>>218010143some Pixar movies are kino though
>>218012657See this is why it's hard to make friends as men in Australia, dudes like you acting tough and above emotions for no reason
>>218013165Typical pooftercope, it's not hard to make friends as a real man at all. I learned my woodworking with a bunch of slightly older gents at a community workshop/makerspace, we still play online games together now I live elsewhere. I've loved women and been loved by them. When I feel the need for company I can pop in to the local wargaming club and play a few tabletop games, or head down the pub and watch a game and there's always folk I know there to chat to.Being happy with solitude doesn't mean you *reject* other people - though I can understand why a poofter who's only real interaction with other humans is being rejected like yourself might think that way - merely that you don't *need* other people's approval and validation to enjoy your life. Have you considered that you might unironically be gay? I don't say that as a slur incidentally, but poofters seem to have the same need as women to get all publicly weepy and have everyone around them headpat them to prove that they're wanted, so like I say if that really is you then seriously, seek out fellow bumboys and their hags and you'll have all the simpering validation and backbiting hyper-emotiveness you could ask for.Either way take a hold of your balls and stop bleating that life isn't fair because it's not serving you what you want on a platter, the only one with the agency to give you what you want is yourself.
>>218010101I prefer going to the movies alone. Better than going with friends who only stay around me out of habit.
