Loneliness

how it is possible that people living in western world are getting more lonely?
We have social media and shit. I can call my buddy who lives 2000km away from me, every day.
Yet it seems like its getting worse.

Haven't had a friend in years. I talk to my exotic woods and listen to them tell me how I should turn them into something nice.

>western world
what is this weird meme?
there is no east or west after the fall of the berlin wall.

>Haven't had a friend in years
why? do you simply dont want to?
I feel like its much easier today to get new friends.

>western world
The Western world, also known as the West, refers to various nations depending on the context, most often including at least parts of Europe, Australasia, and the Americas, with the status of Latin America disputed by some. There are many accepted definitions, all closely interrelated. The Western world is also known as the Occident (from the Latin word occidens, "sunset, West"), in contrast to the Orient (from the Latin word oriens, "rise, East"), or Eastern world.

>people work ALL the time
>no one has the same work schedule
>your free time is spent alone staring at a screen
it's not complicated

Mouse utopia

All my friends either drifted away, moved to another state or died of cancer or suicide.

I'm a bit too eccentric for people (probably a nice way of telling me I have the Autism). Also, my eyes scare people. I was talking to one woman a few years ago and she said she had to stop talking to me because my eyes were "freaking (her) the fuck out."

The only way I can sleep at night is if I run fictional scenarios in my head where I am someone else. This usually goes in for an hour. I am 33 years old

> surrogate activities

Even if it's supposed to be "easier" to socialize, none of what is happening is actual social interaction. Besides, we are having less and less free time to actually socialize. Further, we are set up to socialize in institutions invented way before we were even born, but those institutions were not invented for different people than the masses a short time after the Enlightenment. As things stand we are stuck in an overly technological and anachronistic system that does nothing for us but induce angst, force us unto a path, disenfranchise us and in the end: put you into debt slavery, alone and scared in a tiny box.

Nurseries, schools, universities

>we have social media
There's your answer.
However social our media gets, it doesn't trigger the same physiological responses in our bodies and brains as actually being in the same room as the guy you're talking with.
Spending too much time on social media makes the real deal scary. You get out of practice quickly.
Even kids show the same problems with socialising, in an environment that's supposed to trigger socialising.
All because we have social media.
There's nothing social about it.

>had to stop talking to me because my eyes were "freaking (her) the fuck out."
wow thats not nice
what a bitch

friend (barát) and buddy (haver), two very different thing

>its getting worse
Have sex and learn to code

i have a gf and I study CS
Checkmate incel negro

For therapy, I write simple little adventure stories with a fictional gf. Like we go horseback riding or kayaking. Sometimes, we just go to a movie just to make fun of it.

It hurts, but also helps.

No, I get why. My eyes are a very unnatural looking shade of grey and I'm often asked if I'm wear 'Halloween contacts' and they've been described as freaky or haunting.

the gang's all here

it's not about giving your point of view to someone else
it's about experiencing something with 4 eyes together

>social media brings people together
congratulashuns, yoo playd yourseff

well now you got me interested.
can you post your eyes?

Eh, rather not have my iris pattern on an NSA DB. They're just battleship grey with a very black rim (Lenticular Iris). They look something you'd see in a Sci-Fi android. Tis a family trait that can be traced back to my Oulu ancestors.

We've stopped building communities it's now every family or individual for themselves. Unless you head out into the countryside.

Damn...

hyperbalkanization of interest and needs
I can watch a specific netflix show, read specific books, have a very niche job that pays well, are interested in niche topics, and suddenly you have just you and a guy on an different continent has the same interests as you
Tried to join a sports club, but the different levels of interest in doing team sports was too much. some want to do this semi-pro, some want to win all the time, only a few want it to be fun

Atomization and lack of common social context.

People became unbearable asshole golems in general.

i suspect the more youre on your phone the more anxious real life makes you. it can lead to maladaptive behaviors like self-isolation because the people on your phone, most of the time, are not really people you can just pick up the phone and call without it being super weird.

tl;dr having 1000+ acquaintances can make it feel like you have no real friends.

some people have straight up ice blue husky eyes, it can be very unnerving

Because interacting through a screen is different than interacting in person.

People are absolute cunts to me

why

Because they're aggressive and untrustworthy and like to prey on the weak and downtrodden. Fucking pricks

Loneliness is a byproduct of unfulfilled dreams and having noone to share your dissapointments with. Aim high, crush goals, crush pussy, and crush that faggot voice that says "waah I need a hug". You'll get that hug from Jesus when you die. But your alive nigger, so act like it

Thanks partner, was in a slump and needed this right now

>how it is possible that people living in western world are getting more lonely?
the system itself is falling apart
when the goyim discover that sex is not love, money is a meme, etc they start to wake up and getting redpilled
too many redpills cause cognitive dissonance and they eventually become doomers
luckly i've always enjoyed being alone
my power level is just too high to even mantain an interesting conversation with anyone
but i've embraced my loneliness and it's good because i can invest in myself
studying mkultra and occult shit
discovering new music
shitposting on Jow Forums
making amv's ,etc

It is the lack of healthy physical human contact. Young girls used to hold hands as they went shopping. Now that's a major "no no" as people will assume they are lesbians. Shopping is another problem. Where to shop? Where to spend time together? These places are either being closed or are too dangerous due to gang violence. No more video arcades, no more malls, no more safe gas stations to hang out at... hardly anybody bowls anymore... bars play music too loudly for people to hold conversations, as do all other social clubs, so people just drink and smoke and have to LEAVE to talk, and generally when you leave with somebody it's understood it's for sex.

And, no. Mindless sex does not count as healthy physical human contact.

globalisation

Soul crushing loneliness with zero privacy...welcome to the modern world

Absolutely brother. The only limits we have are the ones we put on ourselves

Based and checked

>Spend less time on social media, more time actually socializing
>Go into nature more
>Read a book
>Get a wife girlfriend (if white)
>Workout

Ever since I started doing 4 of those things I have felt better.

>Technology increases.
>Less work, more leisure.
>More time to realize how lonely you are.
This is not sustainable in the long run unless some seriously powerful energy source is found.

Because no matter how many tools you have to communicate with other people, loneliness is inevitable when a society has no sense of connection to itself, and everyone is just thinking about themselves all the time.

people are retards and not even worth talking to most of the time

Its weird. I was in russia just couple of weeks ago.
I visited a rural city around the Lake Baikal and the people who lived there were very friendly and open to strangers.
A lot of people here in germany are very cold and rarely "truly" friendly towards strangers.
Most of the time the people here just do the basic friendly face.

I had a drink with an old guy in russia and we "talked" about politics.
It got heated at times but this kind of conversations are rare here.
People are so full of themself, every here thinks they are special.

Social media makes people less inclined to reach out due to post-scarcity mentality of friendships and the the fact so little effort needs to be put into maintaining them they've been broadly devalued.

Get those last two semesters. Go with the rice and beans diet to save on food cost.

I have lots of friends... but i dont talk to new ppl much anymore because most of them are gay, dumb, and dysgenic.

I have no problem talking to strangers. I dont like talking to people I know.

How does a Finn express his love for his wife?
He almost tells her.

by watching the anime she appears in over and over

GO BREED. YOU SPURDOS ARE RARE ENOUGH.

>why are people lonely in a society that pushes friend collecting and likes hunting on social media but no real interaction

Internet fuckboy messaging isn't proper socializing, and people are too fucking busy covering their own asses.
