As a man, is there any upside to growing old or Is this where it all starts going downhill?
You should be looking better, not worse. Take care of yourself and this won't be an issue. You depressing at a woman-tier rate.
cut carbs, cerave eye repair cream, benzos for hangovers, caffeine pills for energy
It's hard when you're working a desk job 70 hours a week.
You most likely super charged your metabolism in your prime and now suffering accelerated aging
Have fun
Feel you. Probably psychological endurance, wisdom and not falling for stupid shit.
*sips*
back in my day I used to be pretty ripped, son. I could party like an animal and I had the fear and respect of my peers.
I don't even know what that means. But yes, I was active. Running, cycling, gym, partying/getting drunk was all I ever did. I was generally always somewhere doing something unless I was studying.
>getting married
>having children
>advancing your career
>not caring what whiny dipshits online think
>or anyone else
I gotta say boys, it's pretty sweet getting older.
thats not a very manly lifestyle, is it genius? Youre a house slave
Get your hormone levels checked. I am in better shape at 31 than I was during my 20s, but yes, in general, the friends group you have in your 20s usually shrinks. You meet new people though, although I work alone so I don't. All my close friends are married and the ones who are still single don't live in the area.
>28
gtfo boomer
>working a desk job 70 hours a week
You sound like a faggot, I work on my feet all night and still hit the gym in the morning 4 times a week
>turn 30 in February
>lose job
>get depressed
>can only wear sweats now
>none of my cloths fit anymore
>constantly drinking
>couldn't give a fuck about anything
I need to change my life around, man. This weight gain is crazy. All I do is drink, I really don't even eat. Shit.
Sounds like adrenal/hormone issues user. Go see a doctor and hit up some oxygen therapy. Then go make some more friends, if you need to move to Aus or to a completely new city it will force you to step outside your comfort zone.
>Getting married
No thanks. I work in Banking and would rather not have some female get 50% of my shit whenever she feels like it.
You are discovering entropy at a younger age than I did.
You will get depressed more as it worsens
eventually you get tired of caring and just accept it. Its the oldpill, fren and there is only one way to escape it
You are weak little faggots. KYS
i'm 34. i've already forgotten what it felt like to have friends.
What the fuck is a berocca? Did you mean a beer? Fucking retard britfags, I hate you so much
I'm 33 & enlisted in the army just incase Russia or China start some shit.
But at one point I was like you I think that maybe it's just the point your body has matured. Being out all hours of the night drinking or just being a dumbass is childish shit & your body is like no no fuck all that.
You'll get used to it & adjust but whatever ya do don't start slacking off. You'll die.
Man. What a life to take drugs to feel normal
How the fuck can anyone work at a desk that long
it's a vitamin c tabled you put in water and drink
Are you American? 70 hours per week...in the UK? Get out of here, go take your month of paid vacation. Now if you'll excuse me, Shlomo needs another dollar.
I'm about to turn 25. I still have every positive thing I had when I was 18 I'm just wiser now.
Ya dun goofd somewhere OP
If you were looking to live your life as a child jumping from one distraction to another, yes, it loses some of its shine as you age
sounds like me but I am only 23 fml.
>Benzos for hangovers
Yeah that's smart, combat pain from a alcohol with a CNS suppressant.
No. Either hair of the dog or hearty breakfast. Don't take benzos fucking period really.
Oh and caffeiene is horrible as well.
>getting married
I know your beta kind, “muh wife says.., I don’t know I gotta ask the wife, gotta sell the car the wife wants it gone”
Stop giving bad advice
>Would rather greed to a family
Capitalism has destroyed your soul
I drink lots of ginger ale, can't stand any other soda or things like coffee.
Something about ginger ale just hits the spot every time especially when it's flat.
A marriage is a contract between different parts. The man works and brings in the money, the wife decides how it is spent. It has always been this way.
>year of our Lord 2019
>not having a covenant marriage
I just don't understand it
>hangovers
How about not drinking alc*hol?
>be huge, raging, r9k faggot
>get a little older
You're projecting so hard I could point your ass at a wall and give a slideshow of all the reasons you're a cuck
OP - you don’t belong here.
Also around your age, my friend group was about 12-15 as well, now I'm comfy hanging out with 4-5 of them don't feel bad people just get lazy. This is why I plan trips together with a larger group during the summer, we rent a cabin and have a blast or something like that. Make excuses to meet up, good friends never really go away and are good to have.
Also just work out more, eat better, care for yourself more.
Im about to turn 31. Yeah i wish my body was as flexible and shit but im in the best shape of my life and couldnt be happier.
Turn 29 soon. Never had a gf and have zero friends. Virgin. Doing better mentally, finacially, and physically than I ever have before. Nut up bitch.
>what are prenups
fucking manlet. draft one that says "wife gets nothing, kids get everything in the event of messy divorce" and no judge can touch it.
What sucks is the more muscular you are, the fatter you get when you stop working out
Not projecting, I’ve been around a lot of married betas who use these excuses constantly. Its all tiresome how these women keep their tiny beta balls in her purse.
you get wiser
>ginger ale hits the spot especially when its warm and flat
You have to go back.jpg
Fucking this. I was so glad to leave my teenage years and early 20's behind. I'd take being in my 30's, with a great family, 6-figure income, and my own house than the confused, drunken, vidya obsessed nerd I was in high school.
>pic related is me up until my mid 20's
based
>24
>lost almost all friends
>getting cucked by international waifu tier gf
>have good job with a lot of money
>autistically saving my paychecks for a dream to start a business in europe
>Want to kill myself everyday upon waking up
>It has always been this way.
Just because something has been that way for a long time doesn’t make it better. You should know that better former slave boi
wrong reply, i meant this retard ^
Opinions on social media?
>getting married
Fuck that shit
>Just turned 31
>Still able to run a 10k at 36:15
>Still the same weight when wrestled in high school
>Still looking like im younger 20s
>Still working ungodly amount of hours like a wage cuck
>Not able to get laid as much because work
>Still able to get 2 hours of cardio in a day
The moment you realize you want your own home and be debt free it goes down hill. Because the insane amount of hours you have to work and to stay healthy on top of it.
Sooo I don't know 28
>drinking the ethanol jew
Cmon lads, you're not 19 anymore
Boomerpilled
Just get over it faggot, eat, lift more and fap.
my dick got even bigger shrug
Yep
Those were the times
>OY VEY dont get married goyim just stay single and never have kids so you can get replaced in a few more generations
Dont use social media. Except 4chinz that is.
Anons talking about drinking itt: stop. It’s literally designed to keep you complacent and lethargic, and you will 100% age worse in your 30s onwards if you don’t stop drinking now. It’s a literal carcinogen
Bro your just getting older
Drink black coffee
I just got social media again for a girls to talk to once I get my priorities straight. But it’s fake as hell, everybody is fucking fake and retarded. Good on you for doing your thing though without those things, I give you my respect
Im 27 i am just finishing my undergrad degree in may and ive felt like ive wanted to kill myself every day since i was 16. What mode is this?
Ok Mr Goldstein what law firm do you work for?
Too simple. Could not possibly work.
Go to bed uncle
>tfw 32 with stable career in a company that's grown to £50M+ annual revenue in the time I've been there

I fucking love being single and successful. At this point I feel like I'm 22 with 10 years experience.
I know, but nihonshu is so fucking delicious and I hate myself.
You have shit genetics....
>working harder not smarter
Well yeah, they exist, but from my experience betas are just as common whether they're married or single. Some men just aren't men.
tell us more about your business
>Hangovers make me bed bound until 4pm when before I'd wake up at 7:30am, down a berocca and go to lectures.
iktf. Good impetus to not get fucked up all the time though
You're forgiven, my British friend
start fasting, bet all those carbs have fucked up your metabolism and started to age you faster, age is more based on habit than time live like shit die like shit.
And what's your aversion to marriage (aside from that, in all likelihood, no girl wants to marry you)?
>growing old
>Just turned 28
What the fuck man, you're 10 years too early with this shit.
quads truth
30 year old boomer is the worst forced meme in recent memory. It's completely nonsensical
Nothing to gain and too much to lose, Shlomo
You don't start falling apart until your late 30s, early 40s
Oil & gas services contractors in the north east of Scotland - electrical
I used to go offshore and do the dirty work but for the past 3 years I've been doing design and contract coordination with the fuckhuge oil operators that have plenty of money to sling at small, efficient companies champing at the bit to grab a piece of the oil service industry.
jesus what a fucking pussy mindset no wonder your wife makes the decision she has more fucking testosterone than you fag boi
ALSO FUCK CAPTCHAS
>tl;dr- If you don't take care of yourself, you end up paying for it.
ftfy
>shocking surprise gut
>drinks all the time
Maintaining a group of friends, even in this technologic age, is a challenge moving into and through your 30s.
You're not wrong. I'v cut down significantly since my 20's but I can't find it in me to kick it 100%. Feels bad man.
im sorry dude but you are sounding liek a fucking pussy.
I am a late 20s guy too and u gotta get in on those high T levels while theyre still available, dont just give up
>Virgin
My older brother was a virgin until he was 29.
There's still hope for you yet,user Don't lose hope.
OP, you must stay active. Find male friends that share the same outdoor activities as you. For me its dirt bike riding. I'm 39 and its the only thing that keeps me going. Many of the guys I ride with are in their 40's and 50's. We go on weekend getaway trips. We ride dirt bikes all day then drink whiskey by a campfire and talk shit till 1am then get up the next morning and do it all over again.
>Bottom line, stop being a faggot.
You're white aren't you? Dear God white people age like milk
Didn't have much sex in my life - overrated
I had a friend who was sparky and got asked to go to the oil rigs in the north sea, He said the pay was so much and tax-free I think, didn't do it in the end didn't like the idea of being stuck there for a few weeks
>t. never had carefree prime teen pussy
Oh also, we smoke a lot of weed. Again...quite being a faggot and don't listen to these losers telling you not to drink.
If only your parents had felt the same I could've been spared reading this stupid post.
