Anyone else have a childhood vidya friend?

I had, I haven't talked to him in years. Chances are that he doesn't remember me.
Such is life.
>>255479390
Sure.
We'd have sleepovers, rent psones, n64 and use the computer because snes was outdated as fuck. We'd also buy sliced hot dogs and fries with lots of mayoneise. We were a bunch though like 3 or 4. Also this >>255479608.
I remember I liked a lot of girls back then but now they look hideous.

I've never had one: I've always played alone. Not even online friends.
I'm that silent guy that fills the empty seat in the squad and makes it to MVP without talking or replying to praises.
I've come to accept it and enjoy it.
I have
I still talk to him atleast once a week, often more.
Its alright

>Rumours suggesting bad friend and good friend are in a relationship
Man...I used to play Smash with you guys
Yes. He was also brilliant and could probably become some famous scientist. He ended up getting into heavy drugs and I haven't been in contact with him in like a decade
>>255481279
you should reach out to him, being a "sportsfag" isnt a bad thing, he just wanted more friends while doing an activity he enjoyed you might even be able to get in shape and turn your social life around
>>255482190
>Cooping with a stranger
>Don't exange a word

It's moments like this that keep me coming back man.

I don't really keep friends now as an adult.

No, but I have an internet bro who actually remember my birthday.
I did. Then 8th grade rolled around, he decided to get into constant drug use and I found another friend who continued to share my interests.
>>255482624
I like to think everyone's got one of those friends that turns in to a proper psycho

>>255483076
Not even kinda. He was always a large, clunky guy, like 6.2 or something and clumsy as fuck. Now, he's been on hormones since I last had a conversation with him when he was 22 in 2011 which he started early in the year, and before he started growing his hair out. He was balding pretty bad at 22 but the hormones seem to be regrowing his hair, which was limp and white. Looked fucking strange.
"She's" got a full on square jaw, massive forehead, long ass purple dyed hair, tiny tits, and jumbo thighs. Weirdest looking person I've seen personally, tbh. Everything about her just looks...off.
>>255483453
Did you fix your mom by giving her the D anon?
>>255483504
ThisI miss him
>>255483796
No, I just got the hell out of that household back when I was 17.
No contact with family since then. Good riddance I say.
>>255483453
Ah, another 28-er. Ten years since I had anything resembling a friend, how 'bout you?
>>255482223
Did "Elaine" play yoshi?
>>255484578
Now that you mention it, I think he did when he was Alan.
Fucking hell that theory is terrifyingly spot on
>Use to go to wake up early in the morning to go to his house before school and play Soul Calibur
>We would stay at eachothers houses and take an xbox wherever we went so as to play TimeSplitters with our custom maps. Team Buddies was in there too.
>Remember playing Warcraft 3 on a shitheap laptop with him and his brothers and a a few friends, we found a DotA overhaul that had Naruto characters as the heroes with their own respective skills and models.
>Stayed around at his house and sat through the entirety of him playing LoZ Windwaker.
I feel somewhat sorry for this generation, the "online" of games actually really distances you from people.
>>255484318
Other than a couple of people I talk with on steam/IRC the only thing that resembled an actual friendship was with my gf before we started dating.
And then we broke up 6 years ago.
Fuck people. Fuck human beings in general.

One Childhood friend I haven't hung out with for years, but I bumped into him a few times last spring.
Another childhood friendcommitted suicide last October.
I still hang out with high school friends to this day, but they don't qualify for "childhood" friends.
The people who will be your closest friends are more likely to NOT be your friends from childhood. It's not always the case, but I see it this way.
>>255484742
No it's not. It's just an epic maymay.
>>255479390
He became complete normie throwing away everything me including.
It still hurts.
>>255485670
I know these two guys who apparently have been friends since nursery. I thought they were brothers when I first met them.Im actually jealous of what they have.
All of my friends that were into vidya gave it up in their earlier twenties, or when they finished college.
Within 2-3 years after that all of them got into serious relationships, which all fell apart making them all miserable and far worse financially then they ever could of imagined.
During the first half of all that, my friends said how I should stop playing vidya and tie a knot with some girl.
Now they all say how lucky/smart I was, and how they just fucked themselves for the next 5+ years with mass debt.

Do you still love each other?

Yeah, though it isn't quite as thick as when she moved here. Or maybe I'm more used to hearing it by now.

I still love her, and I like to think it's mutual. And because somebody is probably going to ask at some point, we've been married eight years now.
>>255482432

The times, nor your age, have nothing to do with the act of sharing the goods. Get better friends if they don't still do things like that.
>>255489216
You needed each other anon
>>255479390
Yep, met him in grade school, I over heard him talking about Legend of Dragoon so I asked him out of the blue if he knew where Kongols DS was.
After that we found we both had a real passion for the things we played and soon became good friends.
Now it's been over 11 years or so and we're roommates even. Funny to think how I met my most trusted friend because of video games. That's why LOD will always have special place with me, it got me a brother.
>>255489806

Thanks Mike.
I did, but he got a cunt of a girlfriend and is now the most painful normalfag to be around because she's such a controlling bitch. I want my vidya bro back:_:
>>255491412
Fuck, am I your friend? I've lent out drives full of porn multiple times, with everything except actual illegal stuff because fuck going to prison just to fap, man.Name's not Mike, though/
>>255491349
That last sentence caught me off guard. Sorry to hear.
>>255491378
Sometimes it works out, yeah. Good luck to you two.
>>255491132
I see, unfortunately I had the opposite of one. She was a childhood friend but that was short lived as I grew to dislike her.
She taught me what backstabbing was at a young age and she was a sleep around so I just ended up being repulsed by her.
No fembro for me.
>>255479390
That person is my cousin

he moved out a couple of years ago, and i did last year too

Used to have neighbors across the street that had the best basement, would play vidya all the time at their house. Lots of Dynasty Warriors and other PS2 games. They moved away 8 years ago or so. Alec and Brad, I hope you guys are having fun out there.
>friend shows me street fighter
>have no idea what it is or how to play
>wants to always play it at his house and never tells me how to do specials or single projectiles
>passes me manual " I won't tell you,read it"
>manual only talks about which buttons do what
And to this day I've never played another fighting game other than SF Alpha because of how salty my friend made me when we were kids
No, I had and still have three friends since i was 13 years old. None of them are interested in videogames though, one likes cooking, one's a musical prodigy and one is really into model planes and goes to the gym a lot.I'm so fucking jealous of them, but I still love them
>>255492791
not sure I wasn't interested in stuff like that as a kid but I remember we needed to get something out of my closet and it was kinda too high so I just said hey you should stand on me to reach it. So I laid down and she just stepped on my face with her bare feet. I don't have a foot fetish or am attracted to feet at all so I'm not really sure why I did that.

It's my fault, and now I have nothing. High school's over and I have nobody. Vidya doesn't fill that gap anymore.I'm sorry Austin.

Still, kinda miss the guy and it's a bit upsetting to look back on sometimes. People can say what they like about weed, how harmless it is and shit like that. But I've lost a few good friends now to weed, all they want to do is smoke it and eat some pizza. It's not my thing, I have an addictive personality (currently completely hooked on coffee, 10-14 cups a day) and I cant afford to get addicted, timewise and monetarily.

You know the Bible belt is the world's leading consumer of porn, right
>>255493538
>>255493810
Look at it from Austin's perspective.
He probably thought, "I guess he's not a true friend since he'd rather hang out with different kids. I will move on."
He probably didn't want to go full "battered wife" beta when you tried to reconnect. He might have even thought that you were having troubles with your "cool" friends and didn't want to associate with someone he perceived as shallow...maybe.

Do you realize how many guys this never happened to? The only one that liked me was a fat girl who had an annoying laugh.
>>255483607
I wish people would stop supporting this kind of fucking shit. People who want to be the opposite gender suffer mental conditions. One of my best friends recently (as in the past two years) decided he wanted to become a woman. I've always known something was seriously wrong with him. He would talk about loving blood and jacking off to guro porn. Not to mention his parents are literally retarded. Functional, but they are off quite a bit. He also demanded that I call him a "she" when I straight up told him no. He's not a fucking woman. He's a man and he will always be a fucking man.

Because the shit hurts, anon. Also, you really have no way of knowing that fat-ass was the only one who liked you, girls are crazy protective of revealing their crushes, and as I've come to know over the last year or so, qt wasn't the only one.
Asking her out, however, was incredibly therapeutic for me in that, literally seconds after it happened, I realized how piss-easy it is to just toss your confession out there and see what happens. Since then I've become considerably more brave and my chances with women has improved drastically. tl;dr, if there's a girl you like, get on your phone/facebook/whatever, and ask her out to dinner and to consider it a date right now
>>255496776
Nope. I put my cards on the table. It's her turn and it's going to stay that way

I was kind of a shit to him sometimesI was a shitty kid to a lot of people thank god that's overbut he was a good friend and I have not the faintest idea of what happened to him and probably wouldn't recognize him if we crossed paths, it has happened before with other people from my past oddly enough most seem to recognize me and tell me I haven't changed at all.
>>255498102

i hope it's real. kids act too fucking gay these days. what's even worse is that the bullies turned to psychological bullying. beating someone would be better for both parties

Never seen her since. I wonder how she is doing actually.
Besides that random LAN parties and sleepovers with some friends between 3rd and 5th grade. Then it stopped because games were kid stuff and they were too cool being edgy trendsetters and all that shit.
I literally have no friends anymore.
When I was younger I never had many, but I had some. It just depleted and depleted. When I was 14 it turned into 0 friends.
I'm 18 now and still no friends.
It hurts.

Go back to the catacombs, skelly.
As kids and - later - teenagers we used to write scores in Capcom fighting games.
>X-Men: CotA: I scored 421 wins against 399 loses
>MSHvSF: 322 to 301
>MvC1: 2575 to 2665
And then my brother had to move away. Fast forward several years and I finally bought X360 with UMvC3. Now the score is:

>tfw i used to be normal enough at the beginning of the year
When I say ''Metal Gear Solid of the group''
I'm the weird kid that is only there because I entertain at times. (article: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/video-games/columns/extra-punctuation/11330-Ground-Zeroes-is-Only-Worth-What-Youll-Pay-For-It)
And if you're too fucking lazy to read that, I'm particularly referencing this portion.
Metal Gear is like the weird kid who hangs around with your circle of schoolfriends and is tolerated because he does entertaining things, like the time he punted a sleepy bullfrog into the girl's changing rooms. At other times, though, he might claim to have transformed into a velociraptor, or spend an entire lunch hour explaining that Star Wars doesn't actually have any plot holes if you pay attention to the expanded universe, and in these cases everyone just smiles and nods and makes a circular gesture with their finger near the side of their head.

Well duh, everyone knows that.
I used to. We used to play Smash and Pokemon Stadium and Mario Party all the time. Then I moved away and we saw each other less and less. Playing Smash alone or online just isn't the same as playing with other people.
>>255502441
Yep, that's the worst part, feeling you "have to go" I've never been to a gig, so I wouldn't know what to tell you, do what your friends do I guess, cheer for your buddy, and be safe.

I'm guessing you're trolling, but going getting into a fight with a girl's bf because you want her is the height of retardation.

Last weekend I was at a friend's apartment and we spent the entire day up to 4 A.M playing Online Third Strike. shit was cash.
Aww....this thread is touchingmy penis
Not vidya but I had a friend that I used to play with a lot when I was 5 or around that age. She was the daughter of my father's friend. We moved and I hadn't seen her for like 15 years. Saw her again a few years ago at a family dinner. She was lookin' pretty cute. She seems to like anime too(I'm a weeb). But it was too awkward between us. I didn't know where to start so we pretty much avoided eye contact and didn't talk.

Sometimes I miss him, we had a lot of fun in the past.
>>255503769
You should drop this misconception that living someone else's lifestyle make you more happy.
There is a reason you choose videogames over lifting, you simply forgot about it.
The trick is to stop mourning what you could never accomplish, stop desiring everything you missed and enjoy what you have today, even if it's very little, it's the first step.
Many people who party and lift are miserable inside. Happiness is not an aesthetics, it's a perception.

My friends probably forgot me on purpose. Can't blame them.

One of my fondest memories of the guy: we once set up two tv's next to each other and played through Castlevania: Symphony of the night, I'm on the playstation version, he was on the saturn version. Spent the day noting the differences.
I miss that fucker so much
>>255503510go find him anon, your story is not over
Apologize, repent, try to be his friend and move on with your life
you can't stop the earthquake in retrospect but you can remedy the aftershock
>>255504254
On which basis do you make this claim.
I party and I lifted and I hung out with people like that and some of them, aside from partying and lifting, have terrible spending habits, making them dirt poor, some of them feel "incomplete" because they can fuck any chick they want, but can never maintain a meaningful relationship.
Your problem is that you look at things on their surface and you refuse to delve deeper.
POeople who party and lift are not a different race of people, they are human beings like you and they have problems that makes them miserable just like you.
As for me, all that lifting did for me is lead me to injuries because I lifted like a retard for many years and partying, aside from a very few selective good memories, gave me liver problems.
It ain't all pink and pretty.

Of course. We were always on the same team when our parents would enroll us in soccer or baseball. Every Saturday before a game we would have a sleep over playing video games, eating junk food and watching cheesy movies.

Yeah, keep believing that, then.
You've only got yourself to blame for being miserable. Happiness stares at you right in your face and you can't even see it.
When I was 11 I met my best friend and we'd play games day and night for a while. Nowadays we don't have time for games together (busy schedules and we live far apart) but we still discuss them regularly and we're still close friends, so I'm more than okay with it. I think I'm gonna buy one of those remasters and invite her over to play again next month...we're both grills lel

california here. i know many people like this. they lift and/or party BECAUSE they are miserable or feel incomplete. hell, some guys i know started lifting to get over their insecurities and introvertedness. what was is the result? a big, buff, introverted guy who still can't hold normal conversations, so they hang out with other introverts that work out -- and the result of that is a bunch of buff guys hanging out together. some people think they are gay

You have no idea how much I want to. But I now have enough experience that I know I'm unable to maintain long term friendships. I can't do it. I tried with several people, fantastic friends, but it always ends this way. And it's always my fault.
He is a good guy. He will be successful at his job, and will have a good life.
And in all honesty, the same is probably true for me as well. But if I tried, and the friendship was still there, this time it could ruin us both. So it's better this way.

I've literally been crying since this post. Who the fuck knew /v/ could elicit these kinds of feels out of me.
>>best friends since diapers
>>play games, watch shit together
>>counterstrike together
>>mmo comes out, lose them to e-friends, shake my head that their so stupid not hanging out with their real friends
>>life moves on, still see them regularly and play games
>>as mmo dies they realize the emptiness of what their doing
>>they start wanting to come over more, we play mk8
>>have a riot, just like we were young
Sometimes you have to be patient with the people in your life.
I have a copy of Bushido Blade (PS1) coming in the mail, Gonna play that with my vidya bud. It looked like a fun game to play with a friend, so I hope it is

>high school crush
Shit is gay anyway, people are fucking sociopaths in High School and if you had a crush and were a thing she'd probably talk shit on you behind your back after you break up.

The only parties that I enjoy are parties where I am with close friends.
I went to a Punk Rock club with a bunch of old friends that I know very well and am comfortable with, including a few introverted anti-social types and we had so much fun together with the great chemistry that we ended up dancing, even if we sucked, but we had a great time and I started hitting it off with one of my awkward girl friend in the group. Going out is best when you go out with actual friend.
Otherwise, I went with workmates a bunch of times in all my previous jobs, I went in huge open house parties where I knew one person, it all sucked because I just couldn't connect with anyone, I'm not a chameleon type at all. I can't blend with people I don't know.
So that's what I've been saying about looking on the surface level only. On the surface, parties have this image of great fun and debauchery where everyone has crazy fun, but it's not the case for everybody and there are types of parties and environment for everybody.
This is why most people who never went to the typical boom boom club end up dissapointed by the experience because they pictured these as THE parties when it might just be a matter of you going to the wrong places or with the wrong people.

well, parties -- as in those typical house parties -- usually have friends of friends of friends inviting their friends.
>>255505370nope, she even said I was her type quite recently after I told her I kissed another friend of mine but I dunno, our friendship isn't like that. Maybe if I weren't so happy with my boyfriend hahaha

This.
I also only enjoy parties with 20-30 ppl. More than that is too much.

Its in the hours after you snort a lot of cocaine and you're all by yourself crying in your trashed house when all your friends are gone and the only people who care about you are dead, remembering the old times and how different everything could have been. Just order another hooker for the evening, and you'll be fine today.
Yeah, we used to play Smash bros all weekend every weekend and watch shitty tv but it was awesome. I'm still friends with him but he's an asshole now and neither of us play vidya anymore

You don't sound like someone with aphasia to me. What kind do you have?
>>255506865
Stop freaking out over what you don't have
Realize that you're probably not that bad
Be content with what you have right now, no matter how little it is.
Keep busy, boredom creates loneliness which leads to depression
Complain less
Try to be optimist even in the worst
Accept to live your emotions
Try to interact with people even if you have an hard time
Women are people, dating is a glorified friendship with sex, you can live without em. Most of your desire is hormonal and instinctive anyways, it hardly comes from the heart.
One day, maybe, you'll get a chance at this glorified friendship thing with sex.
For now, just work on yourself, acknowledge flaws and fears and overcome them
Don't take things for granted.
Don't have too many expectations
Accept things as they are if you can't change them, no matter how much they suck.
Acknowledge your limits.
Those are all the ways I do it to stay as content as I can and It's never easy. My point is we all have our own little something and that you should focus on that if you feel like you have nothing. don't focus on the vast hole of everything you don't have and at least cherish the little plate of something you've got and start from there.
I don't intend to give you advice or anything, as I said, what works for me might not work for you. I'm just trying to show you that if a guy like me who is filled with insecurities and with a heart so patched that there's little of the original even left can have an optimist attitude by just changing my perception of things, then anyone can start from somehwere and work their way up even if it'S tough and cruel sometimes.

usually sharing porn with friends when you're older is kind of weird, but if you have a strong enough relationship or have been doing it for a while it's not that bad

Don't give up yet. Live long enough to live forever, and you might still get a second chance.
