I'll set some goals tomorrow.

How do I stop caring what others think of me or perceive me?
I feel like everyone views me as a background character meant only to be acquainted with.
I know I should focus on goals and develop skills but how do I shake off this feeling in the meantime?

which goals and why tomorrow ಠ____ಠ

By others you mean your friends and coworkers or complete strangers?

I'll figure that out tomorrow.

>Meditate (basic guide for dummies:youtube.com/watch?v=F0jedwTzIJg )

this happens when you copy&paste the previous OP instead of using the template

You are supposed to care about what others think about you, it's fucking human nature. However, once you start achieving more you'll notice that you care a little bit less. And part of that is because some people will view you positively as well.

If you got the status of a plum in life, you will care 10x more than when you are well-adjusted.

sounds like a good goal to me

Sometimes when I have my whole day planned out, my subconsciousness just wants to throw it all out the window, it's a really deep rooted urge to destroy and SABOTAGE my own routine,

Any mental tricks to fix?

yes nutrition is one of the most important things to keep in check
it determines how good we perform, how we feel, how healthy we are
not only now but when we are old
eating shit now without thinking about it because we have no issues will fuck one up in the later years

having a fixed sleeping schedule is the next thing
go to bed at the same time, every day no matter what
waking up without effort will come later omn it's own, it will take time

Girl ended the relationship about 6 weeks ago. It was long distance, three-ish years. She's coming back to my country at some point (to visit family at Xmas, and then again later permanently) and she's rather unfairly left the door open and communicated the breakup horribly. She's emotionally underdeveloped. There was/ is a lot to like about her though. I was very committed. We're not speaking. I will likely see her again during Xmas... maybe, we'll see.

My problem right now is the lack of closure. I got none. Not even really a phone call. And the whole upcoming Xmas visit is not helping - I find myself subconsciously keeping track of time 'til Xmas. I know for a fact she was not seeing anyone else at the time although the probably is now. That is to say, she didn't leave me for someone else because she just left the country she was staying in for school. The lack of closure has affected me such that I can't really stop thinking about her/ the relationship. All my lifts have gone up and I'm doing well in school. I have a decent career ahead of me but my mind is sick. I've been on a few dates just to get out there and be social but the girls I saw we're boring. Maybe it was too soon. I don't regret seeing them, it was probably a good thing to do. I've had sex with a nice Russian girl who I'm just friends with. I can go and bang her basically whenever I like, but it feels sort of meaningless. She's a nice person though.

When I was with my ex I had it stupidly in my mind that I could get her pregnant later on and we'd have a son. I always wanted a son and still do. I'll be 30 early next year and I'll be making some decent money.

When she left me I did a bunch of mushrooms and drank whiskey for a day and tripped out thinking about the death of the possibility of my son's life with her and I. This probably seems silly right now but at the time it was a very powerful and real feeling. Anyways, thanks for reading my blog post. Insight appreciated.

Guys I want your input on this idea I have. I know that the "manosphere" already discussed this ad nauseum, but I don't really read up on that stuff as my relationship with my wife has been bretty good and smooth so never really felt the need.

Lately I've noticed that I was blind to an aspect of women that I think many, if not all, share. They seem to completely lack empathy for adult men. My wife is loving, affectionate, dutiful, loyal and very feminine. But she could not give less of a shit about the problems I face alone. She'll pretend to care, but from tone of voice and body language, it's pretty obvious that having to empathize with me elicits mild disgust more than anything. I've noticed this with every girl I've ever met. Women's empathy is reserved for children and "the less fortunate". Other than this, my relationship with my wife is great, but I have been on a big self improvement trip lately and it became apparent that women are better enablers than motivators.

I started imagining and acting like I am a bachelor again (kinda autistic, I know) and despite me being less actively involved in the relationship, things seem to be improving rapidly. It's also helped my fitness as I'm trying to become more attractive to other women. My wife is more focused on my needs now that I'm not meeting hers. Is it even possible to have a purely cooperative relationship with women, or must these games be played for women to invest themselves?

She left the door open and told me we were "for the moment separated" and she wants to see me at Christmas. It's just confusing and I don't know of seeing her at Christmas would even be a good idea.

>been trying to get a girl to go on a date for 4-5 months
>keeps saying yes but she's constantly 'busy', says she'll get in touch and never does
>been trying to play it cool, keep distance and let her come to me, hasn't worked
>recently gave her my number and told her to text me, now realised this is dumb because she won't even though she says she will and I'm letting her control the situation when I should be the one directing it

I want to get her to commit to a date this weekend, I'm just going to be very direct and up-front about what I want next time I see her and see how it goes. Any time we talk she acts like she genuinely likes me, but then comes up with an excuse or ghosts the shit out of me. I know it sounds like she's not interested but I'm pretty confident about it desu, I just think it's my fault for not trying hard enough - I didn't want to try too hard and look desperate, but I guess I misread her. I'm not annoyed at her but the whole thing is a pain in the ass, I thought she was very laid back and wouldn't make me play dumb games or jump through hoops but I guess that's what girls want at the end of the day. Wish me luck and pray for me bros because I really like this girl. What do you guys think?

I kinda feel the same.
there is the saying like:
>the only women that will every truly love you is your mother

>My wife is more focused on my needs now that I'm not meeting hers
which brings me to another one, I can't recall it that good but I hope you get it. It was like:
>stop wasting time solving problems for women
>as soon as something is fixed, she comes up with a different even more stupid thing
>only ever ever ever fix something when it is realy fucking important that may affect anyones wellbeing

>I'm trying to become more attractive to other women
to get further in life and have a higher social status in gatherings?
I hope not to flip your wive


>for the moment separated
there is no short term break up that leads to a happy long lasting bonding afterwards
a break up is a break up
shit happens, don't crawl back
30 years is a shit time but I feel you since I'm the same age

you important can you be for her if she flips you several times and won't even try to meet up with you?
don't be the "beta backup faggit" who she keeps around for months in case she needs something

took a kickboxing class at a super reputable gym for the first time today lads
what a fucking blast
if i keep going long enough and improve enough they’ll let me take muay thai classes which are sparring-only and high speed as fuck
i think this has usurped bodybuilding as my #1 fitness-related passion
i highly, HIGHLY recommend

Dont let yourself be stuck in relationship limbo.Either you are a couple or you break up, its really unfair to you to keep you like this.

I'm not a backup anything, I barely see this girl and the only time I interact with her is when I'm asking her out. She isn't seeing anyone else - whatever her other priorities are I know I'm at the bottom of the pile but that doesn't bother me that much, I just need to work my way up the to-do list as it were

Good shit user, we need more good guys taking these classes.
>t. Muay Thai & Judo

I’m not getting fit to fuck other women, but I think being physically attractive to a wide number of women can only help me.

ask her to date max. 2 times. if she reject you and doesn't ask you to date, gtfo.
sex on 3rd date or gtfo.
you really think a pretty girl will go sexless for 4-5 months. she's using you as a doormat. you should instantly cut contact immediately.

you are the problem in this case. you cannot want a woman being empathic and helpful to your problems.

me too user...

Forgot to mention she's super religious - she definitely isn't fucking around. I just think men aren't high priority for her, afaik she doesn't talk to other guys. She spends all her time with her family or her female friends. She isn't using or relying on me for anything, if I was a doormat she'd be trying to get shit from me or keep me on the hook for something. If I cut contact now I'd probably never hear from her again because I think she isn't interested in guys at all. So my job is to make her interested.

At first I was thinking similar to you and the other user - but I realised that as the man in the situation, it's my responsibility to do 100% of the work and not rely on her to make any decisive move. I need to be the one leading the way, wouldn't you agree?

At this point, I'm ready to call it in and kill myself. I can't make any realistically obtainable goals, but realistic goals will ensure I will always feel enslaved. I don't want a career, money, a gf or anything like that. I can't get a job that won't act like it's supposed to be the centerpiece of my life. I have no real friends, just people that I play 40k with, which I have started losing interest in. I hate my family because they remind of how much of a loser I am and instead of encouraging me to get better, try to get me to accept who I am, which I can't do. I just want to stop suffering. I know none of you guys care, but I don't know what else to do. Every time anyone gives me advice, it is always about fitting in, which is not what I want. I just want to die with what little dignity I have left. On my terms.

Having to drive 20 minutes each way to the gym is getting me down. As a natty is it even worth bothering ? Been lifting for 2 years and can only bench 2pl8 feels pathetic man.

Friends
And many different circles at various points in life (read different cities over years)

Let's talk bro. I care. I feel like crap too.

Maybe talking to other people who feel like crap will help a bit.

I'm sorry you feel that way user, but THOSE digits!

Maybe you should just straight up drop everything and point your life in a completely different direction, get a fresh start. Go get a TEFL certificate and move to some poor SEA country where you can teach kids 20 hours a week and just relax the rest of the time. Or move to a different city or something. Join a church, get a religion that will give you some purpose in life.

what’s the thing you most like to do that, out of all the things you like to do, you could incorporate it the most into a potential job?
e.g if you’re a huge Jow Forumsizen get your CSCS and sacrifice your life to the iron

LETS DO THIS IM TIRED OF BEING FAT

I hit this place about 9 years ago. My family was poor and it depressed me to visit them, I had lost touch with all the friends I said I'd rule the world with, I had no skills or education since I'd grown up completely poor, even the army turned me down. I hated everything and had completely given up.

Although you've probably heard this before, there is a great liberty in finally taking the suicidepill. You're free. You dont need to seethe over the weight of your surely miserable future. You can cut it all free and survive the next day knowing you're on your way of getting out (do an escape bag if you cant get a hand on a firearm). If you've experienced that at least, my advice would be to go and cut out of society. I spent a year learning everything I could about automotive and bike maintenance, bought a flight to Montana, and started riding/driving north through Canadas' country. After a few months I had found a few seasonal gigs that I could return to for enough gas and food money. I spent 4 years going around canada and the american breadbasket. Country folk are a lot kinder to wanderers and I learned an incredible amount of handyman and other useful skills. I felt like I was about to starve to death a few times, and I was certain that I was going to freeze and never wake up when I went to bed more than once, but that was fine. Because I was more free than I'd ever been, and I had nothing to do and nowhere to go. Just basically a dead man wandering around taking in the views.

Go do something different if you have no attachments. Camping in hawaii living off what you catch is incredibly possible and tons of folk do it. Go walk the entirety of south america. Take a conservation internship and live in the Alaskan Bush cutting trail. Or kill yourself, its all the same to me. Seems a bit gay not to go on some kind of adventure first though

You need to keep fapping if you are quitting porn. If you also try to quit fapping you WILL fail. Just fap without porn when you really feel the urge. People need to understand this.

Anons please help I need some advice:
>Sleep a minimum of 7:30h every night
>Almost no sugar in diet
>Don't drink coffee
>Do exercise (not cardio tho)

But I'm almost always tired. At mid morning during uni classes or mid evening I feel like dying, 15-20 minutes of closing my eyes get me going again, but if not I'm barely able to function. Is this normal and I just have to fight against it? Am I lacking vitamins or something?

See a doctor

I found Jow Forums a few weeks ago and saw it as an opportunity to finally do some exercise. I never was fat or something but I thought I could way better. So I changed my diet and work out daily. Workout is still kinda weak but it's just for the start.

When my family and friends noticed they all where like: "Really? Why don't you eat ___? You are weird.", instead of supporting me. Feeling kinda down whenever they talk about me. They always were like: "you could really do something". I don't understand the world.

Probably porn+masturbation addiction. Stop watching porn and reduce masturbation to 2-3 times a week or start with 4-5 if you can't do 2-3.

My wife did the same thing. I was really excited and she just seemed annoyed or at the best bemused by myself talking about finally getting in shape. I eventually just stopped bringing up how my sessions went, PRs and plateau breaks and whatnot, with her. At least I have Jow Forums

What's your calorie intake looking like? Eating for mass, cut, or sustain? Are you paleo/keto/vegan?

SIG in a nutshell

Attached: 83a.png (528x321, 133K)

In fact I'm righr now at 2 weeks no porn and 1 jerk a week (If not I can not yet control the urges to watch porn)
But yeah, nofap gives a shit ton of extra energy

Trying to gain mass, but mostly sustaining due to me not being able to stick with the calorie intake. Not in a "special" diet, just balanced intake but I'm pretty sure I'm eating more carbs than I should

Just got a new laptop, post some /SIG/ wallpapers for it.

So my initial reaction to resentment in this case is that it's definitely coming from a bad place.
Let's think about the source of that.
Is she insecure? Maybe she thinks you would want to get in shape to seek out other women? Or feels that she's in bad shape and you won't find her sexy anymore, being around gym bunnies at the gym etc?
Does she have a valid reason for not trusting you? Have you cheated/been unfaithful?
Does she have a problem with your priorities? Does she feel like you're putting this self-betterment over something else you should value more (time with the kids, financial problems, relationship issues)?
Is she uncaring/narcissistic? I mean this in the clinical sense, like she can't even fake interest in things that don't have to do with her direct benefit?

Once you get to the bottom of the source of the lack of interest/bemusement, you can better address the problem. And if she cant even handle a basic update that your workouts are going well etc, then it IS a problem, user.

I would see your doc as the other user suggested, especially if you're eating and sleeping right.
There's so many variables when it comes to low energy levels, checking for a nutrient deficiency/illness is a good first step. They can then recommend you to a nutritionist/other specialist as needed.

Hopefully faggot mods don't 404 this /Sig/.
I want some recommendations for cologne, bros. I don't really care about the sent (so long as it isn't feminine) I just want something that I can apply once or twice a day and have it last until evening.

Two things:
The ideal man doesn't need a shoulder to cry on. If he does, he should talk to one of his bros since they probably understand him better.
You should take this as a compliment uf anything. The biggest shame a man should feel comes when he is pitied by his lessers. If your wife sees you as someone who is above getting upset that just means you're very mature and in-control in her eyes.

Really implementing stoicism is hard. It's hard to work without worrying about the end result, about the uncertainty. But i will work towards that.
I will try studying 4-5 hours daily without thinking about exams, about the end result. It's the only way, to create the habit, the work ethic, and to begin learning to implement stoicism.
I've been stressing too much, and the stress actively fights against the goals that i set.
It won't be as satisfying as the process of developing a gym habit, but it will be a very important change in my life.
I don't know if i should actively cut alongside this because i'm still too fat to justify any sort of bulking, or just my current small deficit (been losing about 1kg per month, was focusing on recomping).
We're all gonna make it!

>guys my wife is really uncaring about my emotional state and i-
>Naw nigga you just a beast

Nice this is how i feel about BJJ, might pick up Muay Thai soon but God damn it makes bulking hard

>got to the point where I drank half a handle of rum last night and didnt black out
>it isnt fun anymore
>it isnt making me happy anymore
>I'm practically the same shitfaced as sober

I'm looking at the other half of the handle and I think I'm just about ready to quit

Eat more, get a home gym, get enough equipment to modulate your routine so you only have to go to the gym a couple times a week for your compounds etc

You're exactly right.

Your attractiveness to any particular women is largely determined by how many other women find you attractive.

When it comes to end results/evaluating major goals for risk, this video really helped me youtu.be/5J6jAC6XxAI
I've been using it once a quarter or so with any major new venture I'm looking at pursuing. It's my number one tool for deciding on something big (moving, starting a degree, taking on another job) and falls directly in line with Stoic ideology, basically a modern version of premeditatio mellorum (dont trust my spelling on that one senpai).

Throw it out user

also to build on this
>do zero cardio
>sleep 5-7 hours a night
>feel exhausted all the time
>do cardio in the form of skating around 5-8 miles a day from my apartment to uni campus and back
>sleep 4-6 hours a night
>feel pretty awake-ish thru the day
>do kickboxing class on top of all the skating after getting 1 hour of sleep
>feel pretty fucking god damn awake
is cardio a panacaea?

Reminds me when I asked a girl I like on fucking MSN Messenger.

I was a Yahoo messager dude myself. Invited her to play some of the games you could play together on them.

My wife just put a big dent in my truck's fender.

She doesn't really give a shit. She said sorry, but I can tell there was no real change in her. She will continue to not be careful with things that are mine. What am I supposed to do? Beat her? Divorce her? Yell at her? Ignore her? Take ownership and realize that as a man, it was my fault she drove my truck in the first place and ban her from it? None of these seem to offer any meaningful solutions. Am I just a faggot for getting married? Should I divorce and MGTOW? Should I an hero? Sitting down and talking to her about how she wouldn't like it if I treated her stuff that way is a waste, she literally cannot empathize. So what am I supposed to do? I'm honestly asking. I'm tired of my wife's casual attitude to our expensive shit costing me thousands in unnecessary repairs.

Stop being such a wanker and get a better reason than guilt to stop fapping. Like imagine what you can do with the time instead?

Nofap is an unscientific cult anyway. If you wanna have a quick wank just do user. Once you're comfortable the desire will calm down. Unless you're underage b&.

it's no good for your health sitting in limbo waiting on her orders. She might have been nice and you two may have had some fuzzy memories but now she's playing a dick move. Go see her at Christmas with another girl. A better one. That'll boost your gains to no end

not getting fucked up about material stuff is a good start
but she should be aware that not the dent is the problem but the repair costs and the value decrease of the car
if she fucks up stuff in the long term regulary, that's not a good thing

How to overcome jealousy and just let the woman you love do whatever she wants with anyone, no cuck shit, just controlling the anxiety and anger I get when she goes out with her ex/roommate.
For reference; she tells me she wants to be with me, we were in a relationship for the past 4 years and she says she made a mistake when she made a contract with this dude to live with her. They were friends so I didn't make a big deal about it or even care until I found out they were together. Now everytime they go out or do anything I just feel like they are laughing at me despite what she says. I think I have undiagnosed anxiety and probably depression which is why I ended it in the first place.

the fuck that's a no-go
going nights out with her ex and having fun while you sit at home
no, just no

>4444
>quads of death

The quads represent the absolute state of yourself user. Stand up for yourself and dump the bitch that's clearly not giving a shit about you.

Then how do I get over this woman? She is the first girl I've been with that I actually care about or I wouldn't have spent so much time with her. We are so connected and so close and still spend a lot of time together. I refuse to go over there for obvious reasons when he still lives there, I just can't push her out of my mind. Maybe that would make it easier to not succumb to jealousy, I know I need to cut the negativity from my life just she truly is my only friend despite all this shite.

How do I achieve pic related /sig/?
I want to be free of bitch emotions like jealousy, bitterness, resentment.
I also want my mood not to be affected by words/actions of others (struggling a lot with that, no matter how insignificant it is)
Practical tips appreciated

Roll

dont plan out your whole day? set out to do several tasks but leave room for flexibility

There's really no "trick". You just need to develop more awareness of yourself, so that you aren't mindlessly wasting your time doing things you don't want to do.

Mindfulness helps, but if you get into it/mindful meditation, the emphasis should be incorporating mindfulness into your life as much as possible. So, it's better to spend like 1 minute per waking hour being intentionally mindful than it is to mindfully meditate for 30 minutes consecutively, IMHO.

Can be fixed by surgery.
>terrible vision
Depends if you're hyperbolizing, glasses aren't that big of a hindrance, and if you really are as blind as a bat you can get surgery.
>tiny wrists
>non-existent t-levels
Insecurities that you have imposed on yourself and can work around regardless. Also, bottom line you can roid, but i would advise you to refrain from doing so.
>bad insertions
Should that stop you?
>premature ejaculation
You can work on that both physically and mentally. Kegels, etc, very easy to google.
>anxiety
How many psychiatrists does it take to change a light bulb?
Just one. But only if the light bulb really wants to change.
Old joke but holds up, your anxiety stems from many things, and they in turn stem from anxiety. Work to break the cycle.
>at least i'm tall
Be careful when taking pride in things that are not your personal achievements. Don't disregard it, but don't rely on it.

i just want to say, that I really enjoy /sig/ and your ressources, advice and stories. I hope, it can become a stable on Jow Forums again.
After all lifting is one of the most important parts of self improvement, and the lifting quota may be not as high as in /plg/, but definitely higher than in most of the other threads
