So, ive been a neet for a while, saddly got a job, and am once again reminded, reminded why i became one, ill never own anything, im too poor, so no gf, and no friends due to work and sleep and loop, and so most of my life i neeted in the middle of the boonies cuz rent cheaper and just did nothing, cuz i have no future, literal wage slave, and so i turned to games for fun and even social connection, i did this for a long time, and now with the change in online landscape, i notice you cant have friends anymore, ppl are worse, less tolerable, and making banter and finding cool friends online isnt a possibility anymore.It got me then thinking about online friendships and that, at the end of the day they are pointless waste of time, all my years online socializing, ive still felt alone, none of the online friends ive made talk to me anymore, or if they do its rare, and we dont play, cuz they decided to live in the real world and not online, and while it was fun, it was just a distraction, from the fact that real life is miserale, and now online is miserable too, so while it was fun, in te end it was a huge waste of time, and shouldve spent more time developing skills or being isolated in my own bubble alone, forever, like i have been for 5 years, anyone else feel this?
they don't talk to you because you're a bitch, look at what you just typedgrow up and get a real personality
>>747640594I think you meant to post this in /lgbt/
>>747640594i also used that hair in nioh 2
>>747640898its true tho, explain why instead of just, youre a bitch, u cant
>>747640990peak hair ngl
>those first few sentences No idea what your entire post is about but pro tip: crying 24/7 about how you'll never have anything because you suck and having more excuses up your ass than a clown car has clowns will eventually make people believe that you suck and leave you because that's all you talk about. I don't even know you yet I already feel relief that it's going to stay that way, tone town your trauma dumping lol
yes, online friends similar to online forums or this very image board form what is a community of convenienceyou sacrifice real connection, real bonding, for cheap superficial interactions that are just enough to keep you entertained, and even that's been slowly getting worse toospending 1 hour irl talking with a person is worth 1 year of online interactions, if you want to keep your online friends you have to try and transition it to an irl friendship, even if you only see them intermittently due to distance etc
>>747640594do you really expect to have a serious thread about this subject on a subreddit where 99.9% of the users have never had a girlfriend?
>responding to a LLM bait threaddo you fags have 80 IQ?
nice blog faggot, I think I should describe in detail the shit I took today to compensate your thread
>poor>ugly>short>small dick>stupid>mentally illIf you are not me you are living life on easy mode.
>>747641338>spending 1 hour irl talking with a person is worth 1 year of online interactionsyeah no.. irl you must hide you powerlevel and talk about boring meaningless shit to pretend that you are normalonline you can be yourself and actually talk to people that have the same worldview as yourself
>>747640594Correct, only people under the age of 17 still thinks their online friends are worth shit and will help you from across the globe
>>747640594Yes, but I assume you're younger than 30, so at least you learned your lesson early enough to change.
>>747640898What even is a personality? How does one get one??
>>747640594I'm 44. Have had exactly two "best" friends. The first one called me a liar when I tried to explain what happened to me when the cops pulled guns on me in my own bedroom. The second one turned out to have a gay crush on me and went full bitch mode on me when I broke up with my girlfriend at the time. These are people that I had spent considerable time hanging out with and gaming with in real life. These are people I ate with for years. I can't possibly imagine trusting an online friend to be anything other than a connection of convenience. It's possible that eventually we could become close friends offline. But even then, I've lost any naive ability I once had to trust people. Hell, even my own family has fucked me over to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars. How in the world am I supposed to trust a complete random just because we have a few shared interests and maybe played some games together? Really. The fact is that life is lonely and trust is something you should give sparingly and only with actual logical consideration.
>>747640594Yeah it's just you.I mean.. Try to look at your post from the outside looking in. Who wants to hang out with THAT? No one likes this "woe is me" faggotry.
They're about the same worth. You're just doing different shit. The difference is that you're probably acting like a bitch either way. I don't trauma dump to anybody online or offline and they don't to me.At this point I like online shit more. If I don't feel like interacting with people or hopping on or or I'm just busy or whatever, I simply don't. And they do the same. I don't need to make excuses.
>>747641968YOU have to hide your power level and talk about meaningless shit because you already display red flags with your shitty personality. If you were actually pleasant to hang out with you'd find you can talk to and relate to people with the same topics you discuss online Protip: the people you talk to online are human just like the people irl, so they react and enjoy the same talking points. They're not two different races of mythical beings you have to figure out like in your warcraft nerd games

>>747642368>don't read news>don't align to political groups>don't use social media>live years in solitude>see everything from a historical pov>believe everything you hear is false or fake>only trust your evolutionary gut feeling and own logic>face death multiple timesthis worked for me, i can no longer identify with anyone, but now i'm more alone than ever
Yes. “Friends” just remind me of how alone I am. Recently left a discord because of this actually. And it’s not even the first time I’ve done that either. You know how they say “if you encounter the same problem across multiple people, the problem lies within”? Well, it’s true in my case. I’m simply not meant to have friends and I will most likely die alone. At least I’ll always have my waifu I guess. Hope you have a nice day, anon
>>747640594Yeah. I thought my online friends were my friends until I realized that I'm in my thirties and nobody even messages me unless I do so first. Then I finally started going outside and meeting people and now have real friends that really care about me and I wish I did so sooner.
>>747642368The problem is that in order to develop a personality you need real friends that you can have an emotional connection with. If all you have is surface level online friends then you never had a chance to develop a personality and you need to go outside and spill your spaghetti until you somehow end up with people that don't immediately push you away.
>>747640594Not gonna read your dissertation OP, sorry, social media fried my patience and attention span.But basically the answer is "Yes", online friends are not real friends if you can't regularly meet them IRL.
>>747644919Yeah you still have hope.I've noticed that the happiest people are those who met their online friends and it became a durable real life relationship among a group (so not just meeting one person).
>>747645247bro dont se discord, its not worth it, absolute shit show
>>747640594I'm also a NEET and I've come to similar conclusions. In the end, the internet is a bad place to look for meaningful relationships. For one, it makes it too easy to just quit and give up at any point, to ghost someone etc. Remember that meme: "How is cyber bullying real, just walk away from the screen"? It's true, and not just about cyberbullying. We are lazy and prone to stop putting effort into keeping in touch with people. In real life, when we know that we're talking to a real person and not just a bunch of words on the screen, we are likely to put in more effort for longer. This is also adjacent to another issue, in that we don't see people's faces online and when we use text chat, we don't even know what their voice sounds like. There are many different ways to say something using the same words but with a different tone of voice and/or facial expression. These are foundational social cues, but they're largely missing online. As such, it's difficult to discern the true intent behind a message and we often assume the worst.
>>747640594I met my husband while playing guild wars 2 so I wouldn't say so
>>747646665well youre a woman or a troon, u play by different rules
>>747646665oh and back then online was an actual good place, not like the wastelands of today
>>747646665Anon >>747646796 is right. If you're a XX chromosomes woman, boys absolutely throw themselves at you online if they catch even a faint whiff of your tuna, their dream past that point is to meet you IRL. The same cannot be said for them.
>>747646796>gay
>>747640594Bump
>>747646897yes, men r simps and horny af, they will lit do anything for you if ure a woman or look like one
>>747649106>or look like oneWill only take you so far (and that's only if you actually do, consider that men now have a generally sharper troondar than they did before), you're basically gambling on whether your mark is gay or not.
>>747649202yeah ig, ive ad lots of attention as a man who looks like a girl if i try, my point was femininity, wich woman have allot is like playing on easy mode, it doesent even comapre, so idk why that anon decided to post that, as if its the same
>>747649517Lemme guess: Mozambique? Brazil?
>>747648665nah, i like both
>>747640594>I gave in to slavery and barely interact with my friends anymore wtf friendship is a scam???
>>747640594Should I play this game /v/?
>>747649593rather, i am forced to pay rent and be a slave, i have to have a place to live and eat tho, it's designed this way so whats ur point, or are you too dense to figure out the details
>>747649752its aigth, bit barren story wise, but gameplay can be great if u dont mind boring reused sidequests and meaningless loot spamgame: Nioh2
>>747649752First you must determine if coffee is good for you
>>747649915>urthis is why nobody wants to talk to you sis you type like a retard
>>747650204sorry i dont wanna waste time using proper grammar? (and keyboard broken so its hard to press some keys) idk cry abt it or sum :3
>>747650454damn I'm sure your p-a bitch attitude will win them back
>>747640594Considering you have to play garbage games to socialize via gaming, yes.>Friendslop>Comp-Slop>Discord-SlopAll are grim and dog shit. Anyone who's been gaming over a decade has developed enough taste(I hope) to inherently be disgusted by these 3 "genres".
>>747652651slop over used, but yeah, i dislike all those, useless garbage my god, poisoned people and social games
Friends is to see how you waste money in their retard shit games to play one or two times and they disappear, wasting money in things not going to play anymore because they don't like it anymore or they are fucking doomers.
