Man up! What the fuck is stopping you?
Man up! What the fuck is stopping you?
a pathological fear of abandonment drives me to avoid forming meaningful relationships in the first place
There is almost no reward for me even if I do. The things I want are forbidden, the people are toxic, my ideals are grandiose. What's the point when statistically it's probably more likely to win the lottery and even if I manage to pull off a miracle I still won't be satisfied.
>What the fuck is stopping you?
The rejections from the past that I still remember quite well.
>Man up! What the fuck is stopping you?
Tell me how. Give me a checklist like a quest giver in an RPG and I will do it.
Ethics, and fear of rejection.
Too many potential consequences for blundering in and just trying random shit.
Well geez where to start: finances, lack of charisma and general selling skills, inability to figure what what the 'most important thing' is in any given situation, poor time management skills because of aforementioned inability to figure out what is most important meaning I can never organize a sequence of tasks into a actionable project or sequence, and emotionally it's a history of successive failures which has left me reticent to try similar things again unless something 'different happens'.
The second I can solve at least half of those I'll man up.
>Be confident
>Be responsible
>Act normal
>Get a job
>Get laid
Thats it!
What is confidence.
Which responsibilities are worth taking.
What is normal.
Which job.
Who should I get laid with.
Thats the quest part.
Go do your quest.
Can't do it.
You're just waving at some nebulous point in the distance and saying go.
If I was the sort of idiot who walked towards nebulous points in the distance without any sort of directions or path to follow then why would all it take for me to start is for you to show up and start gesticulating.
Nothing. I will achive my goal and become happy.
But everyone else is doing it and succeeding no problem.
Why cant you?
>everyone else is doing it
I rather doubt that.
ima tell bit ur a robot
If this were untrue, everyone would be like you. But they are not.
a respected member of the community FOUND cavorting in this pit of misogyny and terrorism. tsk tsk.
youre probably the Boi poster too, arent you? bits not gonna like this
I am stopping me.
You're incredibly wrong.
They aren't succeeding.
They're stepping on stupid mousetraps in the dark and making horrible mistakes.
And no ones explaining how the tiny minority who succeed are succeeding.
You know what that makes me think is behind it? Pure luck.
But theyre not though.
Theyre getting jobs and getting laid while you are not.
Why cant you?
Where do you work and who do you sleep with.
I work in a social dynamics research lab and sleep with a girl from China. Why?
cant get a White woman?
>get told to man up
>go and do something new, cooking, helping around the house, etc
>not even really afraid of failure
>immediately face aggression from parents on every little detail of how it's done and get encouraged to just quit
>if I even fidget I get a fucking speech about how I'm a scared wimp who should hate himself
What now?
I am stopping myself, and have no idea what to do.
I also am unable to lie to myself, so faking optimism does not help me.
Finding someone with the same line of thinking as I would save me from my pithole of despair, but few people are autistic and weird in this world.
It is already pretty rare with men, imagine how difficult it would be to find a girlfriend who could stick with me because she understand me.
I just need that one person to talk and do project with.
I have very little hope left.
Tell your parents to fuck off, you crack eggs to make omelettes.
Ah.
Your job is makework and you're a sexual novelty.
No wonder you have to come here and tell people to be like you. You have an unsatisfying life despite checking all the boxes you were supposed to.
?
Where did I say any of that?
Is this what they call projecting?
Are they not? I see a shit load of losers outside too.
Dead-end job, no wife but stupid enough to run the ratrace.
Who wants one of those harpies?
Im in a PhD program. This is hardly dead-end.
And that girl isnt my girlfriend. I just hook up with her because I can.
This doesnt make me chad. Im not even good looking. I watch anime here and there and am a nerd. But I try.
When was the last time youve tried?
there's nothing impressive about getting a PhD in a meme field
I'm not wrong am I.
Why else do you have to come here. You unironically hate your life and you think you fit in.
i got memed into HRT and now i cant stop
I didnt say it to try to impress you.
This is quite a lot of projection.
Yes you did. You can pretend you didn't, but you did.
Uh no, you said I was at a dead-end job. I clarified that I am not.
Why should you feel intimidated by a PhD?
>"i just sleep with her but shes not my girlfriend."
UwU;;
I guess it serves no purpose to admit it, so you wont.
Stop trying to help people who don't need help.
You need help.
You asked for the help here . You didnt like it, spat it out, and now youre crying like a child.
If you cant take criticism, why ask for it?
And I thought women were the children...
February, when my oneitis proved unreachable.
Not use trying for no rewards, I rather be comfy instead.
What criticism have you offered?
Why are you calling people children?
I think it's clear at this point that you're just acting out your misdirected desire to save yourself.
Don't make more of these Man up threads. You need to man up.
Get out of that ridiculous job and stop fucking women who don't give a shit.
im telling bit you trol r9k, the butthole of the internet
Im not even the OP lol
>implying your advice wasnt flippant and dismissive from the beginning and not an obvious lead up to the satisfaction you get every time you make this post
Cock
My body fights against itself.
