It's not even the age just the mindset of men here. literally becoming trannies and harassing random women on tinder with a fake chad account? i mean what?

26 here. I don't feel like I fit in anywhere anymore. I have Asperger's/high functioning autism so fitting in IRL is hard for me, but I don't feel like I fit in here either since I have a decent job and I'm married.

Damn that sucks. Good look finding work, user.
r9k is unironically more tranny-friendly than /lgbt/ at this point.

Need to go out and get vape juice, milk, and vegetables.

Accepted a job offer, but CBD oil I bought had enough THC in it to test positive two days after last dose, instant job offer refusal no excuse. What's ironic is my brother finally get accepted for his job - an international cybersecurity guy with the government - and they asked BEFORE testing if he was on it because so many vets are and they're handwaving it.

Need to apply for more jobs. Been unemployed since July, was unemployed or part-time-but-not-being-paid since January.

Always tired. Tried to lay down for a nap but couldn't sleep.

Finally have a qt gf that I would lose my virginity to and marry, but she's in Canada and too poor to move herself.

I mean, you could just not do drugs, you fucking retard.

I have a degenerative joint and spine disorder, and lost my insurance before I could treat it. I've got the discs of someone twice my age.

Recently I realized that when you are dealing with depression it's good to be occupied by some activieties.

27, unemployed. Trying to get a part time job at UPS. The job tour is tomorrow at 6am, but my sleep cycle is fucked and I woke up at 5pm today. Not sure how I'm gonna pull this off.

Oh man, the move from NEET sleep cycle to working was the worst. Good luck!

how does an Aspie get a wife?

I found a girl who was just like me. She is also autistic and we have a lot of shared interests. The hard part was convincing myself she that she actually did like me back.

Turning 25 in a couple of days. I haven't done anything in my life, a NEET, have no friends or never have been in a relationship. Is this the point of no return, or do I still have time?

I don't fit in at work, and because I'm in the army I have to live with my colleagues. I am trapped with people I don't get on with and who bully me.

Also I am doing the commando at the end of the year and we are away so much between now and then that I have no time to train properly

>doing the commando

commando COURSE ffs I am tired

6 yrs since we broke up. in my 30s now :/
tried to fix myself in the past 4.
cant imagine meeting someone anymore. the thought itself seems so alien to me like i've never done it before.
shit this is how i die.

I've just turned 26. I have considered spending the time and effort to sign up for tinder or other online dating apps but I just don't see the point.

Anyone who would ever express interest in me would be faking it or it would be some kind of prank. This has been my experience every single time someone has "liked" me. And honestly most people just ignore me or don't even consider me. Every time I see a single girl or a couple on the street its as if they were saying "not for you, not for you." Which is fine, it's their decision, but I can't help feeling down about it.

I want to be in a relationship with a cartoon character instead. Cartoon characters are always happy and positive, and would be excited to see you and do things with you. They have perfect smooth bodies and love to have fun. I understand wanting affection from fictional characters is the result of not reciving affection from real life people. I just want someone to care about me and be happy to see me. Pic related.

IM GONNA DO IT I'M GOING TO BREAK FREE FROM THIS SHITTY SITE

First step is being less ugly. I need to lose 10lbs and possibly get surgical help. Being attractive helps smooth over awkwardness

Working step is I'm going to try to end all negative self talk. Then i will practice being social on people til it doesn't feel forced.

Next step is trying to figure out how to gain a group of friends who aren't losers that drink alone in their room on friday night. I'm not 100% sure how to do this. I'm hoping it will come naturally after the first steps. This is the crucial step i feel many robots are missing in life with tfw no gf.

I was thinking back on my "social anxiety" and realized that as a kid i had lots of friends. it was only until i was beat down in middle school that i started to become withdrawn and weird.

I don't think I can last another year as "yah im socially awkward and shy". It brings you nothing in life

>CK2

I see you are a man of culture user.
You should also try other things like literature, for example. Ever since i reproached, and started reading again my feelings of depression and loneliness have gone way the fuck down. It's a great form of escapism and a way learning.

/lit/ has a pretty damn good wiki about it: 4chanlit.wikia.com/wiki/Science_Fiction

I would suggest every robot to read sci-fi if you dont know what to look for.

Also, literature clubs in Uni have some pretty nice qts hanging around. So this might push up your chances a bit.

If you want something more "robot" oriented for you to read you can feel free to ask.

Sounds like the typical weed addiction. It makes you feel content with your life, while helping you cope with the reality of it. Fact is, you hate your reality and use weed as a measure for distracting from it. In a sense, it's a delusion. You're running away from your problems, and pursue the comforts that being in an altered state of mind gives.

Sooner or later it will all come crashing down. You're already realizing some of the things the weed has been helping you ignore. It's better to make the break yourself, then have it break you.

>commercials feel like they are mocking me
This feel is the worse. They tease me with all the things I will never have, but have dreamed of having. Or they try to psychologically manipulate me.

I guess life wasn't what it was. I'll die alone, envious.

You can be our next van gogh
Don't worry about it.

>been told flat out in job interviews that my art portfolio didnt matter
uhhh if you applied to an ART job where you make ART porfolio is everything. anywways just draw furry porn

>anywways just draw furry porn
This is actually great advice. If you find a niche you can make decent money off of commissions/Patreon. Just don't let them find out you're not a furry.

>It makes you feel content with your life, while helping you cope with the reality of it.
worst part is, i know this perfectly well, i'm just ignoring it

thing is my life isn't even that shit, i have a good job that i took many years of uni working my ass off to get, looking back, it is a small miracle that i managed to do this while smoking more and more as the years went by. Really, as i'm looking back i'm wondering how the hell i even made it anywhere. This makes me Feel a little accomplished.

Then that feeling turns to sadness because if i did this while high as fuck, how much potential have i wasted, imagine what i could have done sober? This doesn't bother me that much though, we are flawed and we all gotta find our own way.

It's bothering me that now that i have a comfy job and money to spend, all i choose to do is get high. I used to be rather Jow Forums and now i'm losing that slowly.

I can't ignore this shit anymore though, i've decided to stop now.

The psychological manipulation everywhere is nightmarish, I feel like my mind is always under attack and I have to second guess if my thoughts and feelings are my own or were artificially placed there

user, I know it's easy to sit in my comfy chair giving you advice right now, but tell you what: If she dumped you for another, then let her go fuck herself. I understood some time ago, that if someone who you loved dumps you for another person, then your whole "love" was nothing more than an illusion.

Im sorry bro. Similar thing happened to me. Got hit with a drug test after I already accepted the job offer. Took the test, knew it was going to fail, and so accepted a shittier job offer so that I wouldnt be left unemployed. Was only after I started the shitty job that the other place let me know that they still wanted to hire me even though I smoke weed. Fuck drug testing, employers have no right to know what I do with my body on my time, never applying for a job that requires it again

I can't pick a career for the life of me. I'll do a few months or a year of something before I decide I don't want to do it anymore. I'm embarrassed to tell my family again because I know they wish the best for me but I continuously fail. I feel like because my family is distant and I have no friends or relationships that my job has to be meaningful or there's no point in living. I'm thinking about getting Jow Forums and working on an organic farm / intentional community and living a sort of minimalist, sustainable life. But it's hard to see an idyllic long term vision. Hopefully it works out, I'm out of ideas after this. Next up is suicide.

Been working the same fast food job for almost 10 years straight. Finished my 2 years of college this past june. Applied to about 30 places around, 0 results. It was a two month struggle just to get a work term, literally offering free labour.
I thought my time had come, thought I could actually start living my life.

Current plan is to save money to go elsewhere for work. Working it out, I've got about a year and a half of work at my current hours, or 10 or so months with a handful of hours at a second minimum wage job.
All this hassle just to get to work towards getting enough money to not have to work...

Yeah, I'm honestly debating just sleeping in and not even bothering to show up, but I have bills coming up so the margin of holding out for something better is getting smaller.

My erections are getting weaker and weaker. I think my dick is going to die soon. Maybe it's because i put some weight and the blood doesn't flow well there or maybe it's because i feel depressed almost every day and i'm too nervous to keep up a full erection. I don't know what to do.

A woman is interested in me I think but she has a kid already. Her kid is like toddler age or whatever. I am 26 and she is 24. I like her too but I am really bothered by her having a kid. I knew her a LOOOONG time ago in like grade school. Seeing her with a kid and shit bugs me out severely despite me liking her.

I will probably just ghost on her like a coward. FUCK MAN. I just want a a woman with no weird baggage to be interested in me. JEsus fuck.

The social part of my brain which was meant to develop 10+ years ago has withered through under-use never to recover. I live with my disabled mother who is more miserable and in pain every day for health reasons. I am too useless to help her in any meaningful or practical way. I am simpering in passive, paralyzed by indecision by literally everything. All of my energy goes to supporting the household financially but that is literally all I'm capable of. My life is completely empty and I can't manage to do the simple things that need doing to move to point where something positive is a possibility.

I'll be going back to school as a 27, soon to be 28 year old. Most likely majoring in Computer Science.

I'm not really sure how to make friends with a bunch of 18-21 year olds who's life experience has been all about school. I guess I could talk about Jow Forums, because this place is all-inclusive.

With each passing year I get more self-conscious and self loathing. I'm struggling with trying to cope with the fact that I'm not going to be a successful misunderstood genius, or not even an average Joe who is working a 9-5 with a modest home. I'm a loser 100%. I'm a loser. I'm dating a loser. He comes from a 1st generation loser boomer family. We're going to have a loser family together and have a bunch of beta children both male and female who don't know how to cope.

I'm trapped, but I also acknowledge that I've never even made the steps to leave. Being in a relationship and smoking blunts is all I really got. I feel like there's eyes on me, everyday. And everyone can't stand to see me fail in a cringing sort of way, even though they have no personal attachments to me anyway.

Where the fuck did the past 10 years of my life go?

All of these posts are real ass shit, the rest of you are faggots.

Looking for a job and education right now. Think im getting a Logistics degree at a local school/work combination. Hope to get my forklift licence later this month and hoping this will land me a comfy forklift driver job or something. A steady job is all i want to pay my damn rent.

Why the hell are you silver?

29-year-old here.

I hate these threads.

Several times I have come to these threads for help, but got none.

You guys have terrible reading comprehension. In one of my posts I would state that my family is giving me money for my psychotropic medication in exchange for letting them use my name and social security number for tax purposes for the illegitimate and morally dubious business practices of my older brother, and then I get somebody replying to my post asking me how I am even able to afford all of my psychotropic medication if I am unemployed... I mean, come on, I explained it all right there within that same post.

And I am not allowed to elaborate any further on my story because Jow Forums only allows for a certain number of characters per post.

And you all get mad at me when I end up doubleposting to elaborate on my story.

And then when I copy+paste bits and pieces of my story that I have already posted in these threads in the past, you all get mad at me for reposting.

And then I have you all forgetting bits and pieces of my story which then leads me to reposting my story, which then results in all of you getting mad at me even further.

It is as if you guys intentionally ignore and/or conveniently forget bits and pieces of my story, making me repeat myself only to have you guys getting mad at me for repeating myself.

Fuck.

Going back to grad school at 29 in a new city where I don't know anyone. Will be returning to my employer so fine on that front.

Any tips on being in a sea of 23~ year olds and even younger kiddies from undergrad? In terms of expectations setting I already expect the worst - that is I'll just be soloing it.

You need to lower your expectations and not post essays while also expecting any kind of detailed response. Last time I checked this isn't a place staffed by certified counselors/doctors actually paid to listen and advise you.

Those may really be what you want.

why won't anyone help me. i don't understand

I feel like a goddamn 15 year old again. All that edgy pontificating about the inequality of the modern world leaving me at the very bottom is rushing back with each passing day. And it's getting harder and harder for me to convince myself I'm being irrational. Why shouldn't I be bitter that the high school bully is now a middle manager making a comfy paycheck and on his way to the top? Why shouldn't I hold women in contempt as more and more of them are either pumping out a kid with a father who isn't sticking around or waiting for mister perfect because having to lower your standards by any amount is worse than being alone? Why shouldn't I hate a society that seems to have been purpose-built to crush men like me to be used as floor mats for everyone else?

I'm too scared to kill myself, but I don't want to live. I just want to fade away.

>why won't anyone help me. i don't understand

>be nearly 30 years old

Nobody else is going to step in and magically fix your life for you. You can either do it yourself or resign yourself to a lifetime of impotent misery.

You just have to really want to make that change and go for it and stick with it. Us all the resources available to you. As it turns out, there actually are a lot of people out there willing to help.

>there are a lot of people willing to help

No, there fucking isn't, I'm slaving away at shit jobs, school full-time, maintaining a 3.7 GPA and nobody GIVES A FUCK. Nobody even bothers to remember my name. I can't even get my car fixed so I might lose everything, despite working so much. Nobody wants to be my friend, so I get no rides, no caring understanding girlfriend there for support, not even my family can help me. Not everyone has been spoonfed your easymode life faggot so fuck off.

Can I start a quick discussion?

For you robots here who had a potential gf or any current girl you are/were interested in and are at least on good terms with but aren't able to move into the gf zone with her, why not have her help you find a gf?

Like I'm not talking about straight up asking her to find you a gf, I mean like at least still hanging with her and potentially/eventually getting to know her friends or at least use her as an in for social events where you could potentially meet a gf similar to what you're looking for?

I understand this may not be possible for every situation, but anyone ever considered this?

Women can see right through that. You're honestly better off just telling a girl friend to help you find a girlfriend.

how can they see through that?

What if you genuinely make an effort to just stay friends with her? That way if she sees you showing interest in a girl, she can be your wingman, because thats what friends do

The best wingmen are girls, no?

>how can they see through that?
They just know. I can't explain it.
>What if you genuinely make an effort to just stay friends with her? That way if she sees you showing interest in a girl, she can be your wingman, because thats what friends do
You can be friends, she may even find it "fun" to get you a gf because it makes her seem important.
>The best wingmen are girls, no?
No. She can tell other girls about you to see if they're interested, but you gotta do the rest from there.

>got a job that only pays 12 an hour
>but it's a 9-5 monday to friday job in a small air conditioned shop with only 7 of us employees and I never have to deal with any customers

I'll take it.

I guess you make a good point with the "gotta do the rest from there" thing

I personally am not really a robot but I am high functioning autism and I do struggle with that sort of stuff, despite not being a virgin and having had multiple sexual partners. Honestly unless you're a turbochad that's probably the hardest part for most people imo.

t. spent the first three decades of my life miserably depressed and suicidal every single day until I realized that my life was my responsibility and figured out what I needed to do to fix it on my own. It doesn't really matter, though. I'm just here to tell you the facts. I don't care if you accept them or not.

The irony here is that you little faggots like to pretend that the people telling you that you need to learn how to help yourself are somehow spoiled and entitled when the truth of the matter is that it's you who thinks he's entitled to endless help and support from strangers. It's cool though, I do take a certain satisfaction in the fact that people with worldviews like yours will in fact be miserable their entire lives, will always blame everyone but themselves for this fact, and will never realize that they could fix the majority of their problems if they only took ownership of them and realized that the only way those problems will be fixed is if they learn how to fix them personally. When you refuse to accept this then your own life is the punishment you deserve. But no, you poor little snowflake, tell us more about how your life is the fault of everyone but yourself. You're just a victim! Why won't anyone help this poor victim?
