Unconscious desire to be detached because consciously I'm too impressionable around others
>>
>>26486789

Because I never had a good example of a healthy relationship growing up, everything was distant or non-existant.

Also I have no money after fucking up college and my last job, and as a consequence live with my mom in her house, which is a no fun, no pussy zone of despair.

Because I hate the women I attract

I don't see myself being happy and ive dropped out of college. The only thing I could possibly live for is the search for philosophical answers and the seldom times I can hang out with one of my two friends. One is becoming pretty normal though and it isn't satisfying. It feels hedonistic. If I could do anything Itd be studying anti-aging in an attempt for philosophical answers(can't think of you're dead) otherwise I'll probably just kill myself sooner or later. I need to burn the bridges first so they won't be as hurt

No friends etc.

Like, I don't even know what you should do with people or about what you should talk with them, interacting with others without that protection of anonymity just seems impossible for me. I also often break up contact with others online, because I feel like I just bother them, there will always be another person, who would be much better for them, talking with me is like talking with a wall. 1on1 conversations just seem so alien to me, I don't even know anymore tbqh

Everyone and everything is scary, and I'm not interesting enough to make and keep friends.

I have very few hobbies and the ones I have are very passive and uninteresting, and I have no sort of passion or motivation to move forwards in life.

Someone could genuinely want to hang out with me and I'd end up ruining it because I convince myself that they actually hate me and think I'm stupid.

I'll be 30 this year and I've never had a relationship. I dated one guy for a couple months in 2006, another guy for a couple months in 2010, and fucked one guy on and off for about 4 years from 2011-2015.

I realized with this last one that I will never be wanted by a man in any meaningful capacity so I kept him around for as long as humanly possible in the faint glimmer of hope it might turn into something long-term.

Meanwhile I'm getting older and fatter. So there's really no point in dating anymore. But I make a very good salary, so there's that at least.

>I need to burn the bridges first so they won't be as hurt

This was exactly my thinking from the ages of 15-25. Then at some point I realized that I have a long life ahead of me and that I'd rather those future unknown experiences than be dead. And I don't want to be alone that entire life, so I started to participate more in life and try to say "yes" to things rather than a reflexive "no, ill get hurt or embarrassed" which doesn't happen as much as you think it will

I know exactly what you mean. I think I'm just now rediscovering myself after years of turmoil and depression. It feels like learning how to get back home. But one thing that helped was trying really hard to figure out what I wanted from life, and separating that from what I'm just envious of. I wanted to be compassionate, but deep down I'm selfish. It felt good to know where I stood, like I'm not lying to myself anymore, and I'm not extending myself beyond what I'm capable of.
>>
>>26487225
More than that, I realized that not only will you not be embarrassed, but people are far more self absorbed to even pay attention - which is another whole set of depressing issues.

personally, i think i have attractive enough looks to date girls. i did when i was in high school.

the problem that i have is that im entirely uninterested in short term relations and it seems like thats all the women at my age want. i am not even remotely interested in sex unless the sex has some substance behind it.

why am i lonely? because the only thing ive ever seeked out in life is genuine, real love from a fairytale i keep to myself of "the one."

id rather be alone than used again, but i still desperately wish to not be alone.

I doubt it - what kind of ass?

You may feel more guilt than what's warranted. I thought I was too, but being an ass was also sort of a put on. Think b-tard humor, it was a flavor of the month so to speak back then. But once I felt that it was just shock value and it wore off I wasn't as much of an ass as id have thought.
>>
Because I don't want to be friends with people who are shallow, as in, they are plebeian for every medium, and constantly are going out to cafes and shit.
It would be cool to make some friends which aren't shallow, but I don't know how to meet them. Also, they would still be kind of a burden, because I like being alone and doing what I want, without any obligations.
>>
>>26486789
I feel lonely because I chose not to be numb and detached to my emotions. For the situation is because I am ugly and introverted but the ugly part is keeping me the most from relationships. Friends wise I am too different and cant function normally if I dont exhaust myself pretending. Its a result from not enough love and care from parents and being in isolation through my critical years before 20ties.

Now at 24 its hard even for normies to form meaningful relationships without their former friends, nearly impossible for broken individuals like me. I am glad that at least Im not lacking social skills, even though it exhausts me, I can still function semi normally in society, just without meaningful relationships.
>>
>>26487336
Serious question; how old are you?

What you're speaking of is a kind of complimentary lust. As I got older I realized relationships only work if both are interested in building something more than merely your primal urge of lust. Short flings are entirely self serving but they're so common because it's so easy to unconsciously fall into them. Then when it goes wrong they can blame it on some minute or ridiculous factor because self awareness was never a part of the relationship to begin with. You're in for a rough road if you want the best kind of relationship this early in life - you're asking for the stars to align.

I was always either bullied or "that guy" for all of my life, so I don't trust people anymore.

After so much time on the internet, 4chan in particular, I can truly say that I'm not "lonely" anymore. Maybe as a kid, but not anymore. Relationships are all so fake and forced, it's like something straight out of a TV show, because normies live their lives how the Jew says they should. I actually discuss things I care about here and feel some sort of attachments to people and different boards are like different worlds. Maybe I want to talk about video games, I'll go to /v/. Maybe I don't want to be in a see of shitposting, buy go just talk shit, I'll go to /pol/. Maybe I just want to complain about how much I hate people, I'll go to /r9k/
Maybe I could use a _______boyfriend, but the more I think about 3D people the more I get disgusted

Interesting. I could never become gay though. I despise how women behave, but I still can't see males as anything more than bros, at best. Although feminine traps on the other hand...
>>
>>26487755
Oh, hat problem.

I grew out of that by empathizing more, and giving less of a shit about arguments. It was a superiority thing for me, but after reading into the side I was defending I still didn't know what I didn't know about the issues. So once I realized my ignorance, it took the wind out of my sails, "how can I argue it if I don't truly know?"

Then what was left was just the feeling to dominate others. Ultimately i thought was a fools errand and just got apathetic about that shit. It's funny how much I changed - from being passionate about that sort of shit to shrugging off everything. I find things more dull, but at least I don't worry about the dumb shit dumb people will always continue to say.

That was my experience anyways. Ironically the smarter I got about arguing the less I cared. Ymmv

I'd say it's an acquired taste. It started with anime, then doujins, then just admitting I'm a homo. It's not like I see every guy in a sexual manner, just like how "straight" guys see traps in a sexual manner.

i don't believe every single person of a single gender is the same way, contrary to popular r9k belief. maybe i'm crazy, but i truly believe that there is somebody out there that will care for the same things that i do, and i won't give up until i find her, even if looking for her isn't a super active process...

I'm socially autistic and I also don't think anyone would want to be with someone who doesn't want to do anything and has no ambition.

I also have unproportionally high standards - I can't help it. Don't take that the wrong way tho. I'm not whining and crying on the regular for a gf.
>>
>>26488021
Eh, it's a stretch to say homosexuality is an acquired taste. That would mean it's something great and everyone should strive towards it.
Now on the other hand, saying "The Brothers Karamazov" is an acquired taste, that's different. The phrase fits more here.
I still like traps though, started with 2D, now I fap to certain 3D ones, but rarely. Since I started fapping to them, I think I started noticing male looks more. I wouldn't say I'm gay, but I think I can see better which male is hot and which isn't.

After all these years losing all contact with the outside world I literally feel physically bad when I'm outside.
When I have to get outside for a longer period of time and then finally come home I can feel my heart slowing down as soon as I open my front door. The moment I sit infront of my computer it's almost like I take some instantaneous drug to calm me down. I am so used to my home surrounding and my routine that I can't see how could I break out of my comfort zone. I can't even talk properly now, small talk is the worst for me, it's like a RPG conversation where you have to choose the right answer but instead you have a million choices to choose from.

got feels for these anons..

me, personally,
only 3 girls were attracted to me in my entire life. but I didn't want any, because I'm just not made for them, I'm not made for FUCKING NORMALFAGS
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

one was really cute and it was actually not a long time ago, like a year or less. she actually had perfect looks for my eye but she was just so fucking normie I couldn't stand being near her for more than 8 minutes.
the second one was really fucking ugly and was a tumblrina aswell. the third one was in my childhood or some shit, I don't remember.

other than that, I have no real life friends, only friends I met through online communities. I talk to them every single day, today's talk was 10 hours.

I want a weird gf, not only a lurking one or some shit, I want her to be awkward, intimidating, with social anxiety or something. I want to lead her in life, I want someone to be almost fully dependant on me.

I hope you robots enjoyed my presentation.

because I'm transgender and refuse to talk to anyone who isn't sincere and accepting of it. The worst part is that I don't even know if I even feel like living because the transition is going to be so hard. It hurts a lot, and sometimes I'll lash out at people who I can trust, and they'll leave me for it. Sometimes I'll just be too heavy for too much of the time, and make them too depressed to keep spending time with me.

I have a pretty bad stutter which means I can't talk most of the time. Life's pretty tough due to it anyway, making friends is just impossible. I find it very hard to just order some food at a shop or say my name to someone when I meet them. Everyday is stressful because of it, and the future just seems terrifying.

just thinking about those times boils my blood.
My dick is 6 1/2 x 6 inch girth.

I fucking hate normies man. I know Im going to die alone, I don't even want to get married due to my overdose of redpill anyway sadly. As much as I would love a son who looks up to me and adores me, I don't see it happening like how College was just a fantasy I never applicated myself too.

I need a kind of love I'll never actually find. I have mommy issues. I don't want some woman to replace my mother or anything, but I just want someone to love me, be very affectionate and be crazy enough about me that I'll never have to worry about them cheating on me or leaving me.

But I know that's unrealistic and I'm not worth it so I don't actually expect that. I also have too much pride and would rather endure being alone the rest of my life than take a chance and ask a girl out. I fear rejection too much.

I want love but I'm too afraid to actually find it. I know it's my fault and I have to get over the fear and just go for it, but when I'm in the moment I just can't. Yesterday at work a qt as fuck coworker and I were sitting alone in the break room and I noticed her looking at me a few times but I could never find the courage to actually do anything about it. I just can't.

I also fuck myself over with everyone by generally being a theatrical asshole that acts like he has everything under control when in reality I don't. But people don't want to be around a bleak little faggot, so I joke and act. I've lied and been different people so much I don't know how to show people who I really am.

I also can't seem to get over this girl I'm involved in a fucked up situation with. She strings me along when I have no chance and I'm an idiot for always getting my hopes up.

You still sound kinda miserable though. You say you grew by empathizing but then you say now you're apathetic. Empathy and apathy are very different things.

I think that stopping the /b/ tier arguments is a step in the right direction and you seem incredibly self-aware which I commend you for

Maybe it's time to look further into self-improvement though. Do you want to get stuck in apathy for the rest of your life?
>>
>>26490268
trust me when I say that hiding everything that you like is not only exhausting but requires you to isolate yourself from the people you like, out of fear of being clocked.

I feel like I'm accepted by normies, but at the cost of my own sanity. I just wanna spend my nights drinking and getting butt-fucked by people just as insane, if not more insane than I am. Most of my days, I want to die, but I feel too much empathy for others to kill myself. People depend on me to do things. It sucks. I just want to die, but I would feel bad if I died, because then I'm leaving people not only with emotional trauma, but also with all kinds of loose ends from obligations I made that will never be picked up.

I'm a law studen, and I'm fit and active, and all that good stuff.

Doesn't mean I don't see a point, but I forgot to go into the empathy part. On my phone and didn't want to type it all up, since it wasn't my main point. It's not something I think I could concisely convey, but I think it's important way to not get upset at others. Like David foster wallace's take on living in a modern age.

Because I'm addicted to sadness & pain( not physical).
I have a couple friends, though, we never share our personal problems, they're really great and I like the times I spend with them.
The thing is, I never want to see them or spend time with them, I literally force myself.
I've always been an introvert and unable to make friends alone (it was always those same very very social friends who'd do introducing, etc. for me).
I've had a severe depression last year, which led to agoraphobia, and became a real shut-in, I'd stop going to uni, and only leave my room in order to shower/pee/poo/buy food. I did one suicide attempt. Ended up hospitalized, and now, I'm back at home living with my parents. After a year my suicidal thoughts are completely gone. I'm still on medication but everything's good. I'm able to make friends at uni, I go everyday to class, got good grades this semester.

And yet, I don't know why, but sometimes, mostly in the week-ends I stay alone in my room. And have a certain nostalgia of those times I felt bad. I keep watching dramas, and anime with muh feels in order to cry. I wish I could, like when I was depressed again, start to feel such a pain, I'd start to cry for no reason, sit on the ground, my legs against my chest, under my desk. I don't know, those were horrible times, really horrible, it was really painful, and I keep telling my psychologist I don't want to feel that ever again. But the truth is, I think it had its good sides, and I have no rational reason to give, which makes it so hard to describe it.

That's the reason why I'm slowly now and then, but more and more, slipping again in trying to be lonely. I've never accepted any invitation at uni, and I'm going out less and less with my friends. I know I shouldn't but I don't know why I keep doing it, and it somehow feels good.

Sounds a lot like me, except replace guys with women, and instead of an on-and-off sex thing I actually had a relationship.

But I'm 30 this year too, and that one relationship ('09-'13) was a nightmare I trapped myself in and should have left after the first year. I stayed because I was sure that I'd never get another one if I left, and sure enough, it's been almost 3 years and I haven't had a single date or sex or anything. Every time I meet a woman that I have chemistry with, she turns out to already be in a relationship.

Why not just be a feminine guy?

Often wondered this, and it's entirely my own fault.

I'm not overly socially retarded. I can hold a conversation, and I guess I must have some redeeming qualities because people seem to intentionally talk to me at university and stuff.

But I've always admired those who live a solitary life. Those who remain on their own, no wife, no kids, no friends, just their own little company. I was always a huge fan of Dick Proennekke for this reason.

So I aspire to be like them. I sit at home in tears with my phone vibrating once an hour or so with someone asking me to go out for a drink or whatever, but I deny their world, because I wish I was a good enough man, a strong enough man to survive on my own. But I'm not. So I get fucking lonely, and I'm the only person I can blame.


Deny the outside world, and atrophy.

>>26486789
On an abstract level, I feel as if human contact is inherently harmful and that humans are inherently evil. Imagine if you were the only man on an undeveloped planet. You could starve, die to the elements, disease, random accidents, and so forth. You can still do that with people around, but the difference is you can also be betrayed, attacked, used, lied to, and tormented. Humans just add another layer of suffering on top of what you can already experience.

Of course, being more realistic, I live in the 21st century. I can starve, but I likely won't. I can die to elements, but I'll have to go out of my way to. And although I can still be betrayed and hurt by others, I can filter them out and get my social outlets in places like this, if I so wish. But that's sort of where the loneliness stems from. People are shitty, myself included, and that's not news to anyone. So I filter them out and end up alone, because it's better to be alone than with others who hurt you.

Personally, I have trouble connecting to "the masses". Not to come off as a pretentious twat at all either. It's more like I just don't care about keeping up appearances in caring about mainstream media, events, or dogma. I mostly just care about my own inconsequential little nerd hobbies and my niche porn and that's it. I have nothing to talk to most people about because they aren't interested in me and I'm not interested in them.

Not only that but I find it ridiculous how much people can blather on about super trivial things and talk with confidence about stuff they know nothing about. I might speak 100 words in a day, other people average ~2-3k words a day and most of those words are wasted on meaningless babble. People will pass judgement on others and label people they've just met, saying so-and-so is "fake" or "creepy" or "an asshole". What ever happened to walking a mile in each other's shoes?

tl;dr- people are mean, dumb, shallow and boring and I won't have anything to do with it.

I finished college, and I realized that I wasn't going to be in situations where I was forced to meet with new people or that things were going to improve. All my past relationships with friends had faded away and they became preoccupied with their jobs, had found a girlfriend, or they simply moved away. Was never close with family or the like either.

Everybody has grown up and become more distant, and I feel like I'm standing still due to never wanting to take risks and staying in my comfort zone. It's why I never asked a girl out or even dared try. It's why I don't actively meet new people or try new things. The only friends I've made in my life they've taken the first moves, or I was forced to interact with them by outside circumstance (school, roommates, etc). Fear of rejection and a fear of getting close to other people I guess.

I don't know. Just know I don't have that glimmer that things might change in the future like I did throughout college or earlier.

The type of women I attract are so god awful that being alone literally makes me better off. I cannot into long and deep friendship. THAT was when I was healthy and trying to make something of my life. Honestly didn't feel the lonelyness too much because I kept myself busy. Turned out that busy part was very important.

I have since became a sick sad little cripple of a man. On the plus side the nightmarish women I attract should lose interest and I already know that I suck at friendship. Downside is for obvious reasons my health and the inability to stay busy. Which turned out to be all important when it came to pushing back the loneliness.

Its game over me for robots. If you still got your health try to get out while you still stand a chance.

it's one way, but it's definitely not the only way. you're way optimistic if you think that. Actually, if it's that easy just turn off your internet subscription and see for yourself. I'm pretty sure 4chan helped me accept myself better as I saw others facing the same problems as I did.

Becuase through growing up i learned how to cope by being alone.
I had siblings but during middle school and high school kids want to do their own thing and make their own identity.

So the status quo,the familiarity has usually been lonliness.
And that it must take alot of pent up frustration for me to abandon the fear of risking changing my situation. Otherwise the familiar is comfortable and i am person y
Through nature or niture or both that doesn't like to take risks.

As i have gotten older i tell my self that my psyche has been getting weaker and weaker and if i fail at attaining my dreams i will sure kill myself,Be a bitter scrooge to everyone, or go full on psychosis.
So i wait till i get so frustrated with lonliness that ill probably end up killing myself.

I spent the last year integrating myself into normie status, accepting coworkers invites to hang out after work, cleaning myself up, laughing at regurgitated shit that isn't remotely funny, pretending to be interested in the daily woes of these people, even had sex with one of them.

I fucking hated it. All of it.
The "normal" people's social lives are full of sickening amounts of dependency, pretense, and anything else they can do not to have to deal with themselves on a real level for more than a few minutes at a time.

The biggest misconception in modern society is that "real life" relationships are somehow better than the ones we've formed online. In an online setting, both parties have the option to simply walk away at any time once they see fit to do so, with 0 fear of repercussion or faux pas. If you have an interest that lies outside the realm of immediate pop culture, your best place to find conversation about it without anything else drawing the limelight is the internet.

I hate myself, but at least I'm not spending my life pretending I don't.

I can't really tell what the exact reasons are, I can only base it off the factors I have learned are detrimental to social life/mental development through this image board, general observation and over analysis.

Apparently having a single mother who was 35+ at birth and chain smoked can have a profound effect on how you turn out and develop, I'm lucky enough to be in a economically developed country and be in a half decent city.

Growing up I didn't speak to anyone until about the age of 4 where It was forced out of me. No Idea why but its refereed to as "selevctive mutism" and it limited my social development up to the age of 4/5. So I had no actual friends.

After that my mother did have 2 local friends on the street with sons so I made 2 childhood friends but I suppose because of their individual circumstances by secondary school (middle school) we faded away as friends as they followed completely different paths to me, one adapted to the "hood" culture and the other one was gay and basically made his friend group entirely girls and ravers. So they were gone.

I had your typical acquaintances during school but they obviously just dissipated once it ended as they had their own friends aside from me. I suppose it comes down to me not being needed and becoming an outcast through the means of being forgotten.

To be honest, every friend I've had essentially did what happened in the paragraph about my 2 childhood friends, just a different variation of that general formula of losing friends.

Sometimes when I talk to people that I consider friends I just have this gut feeling or can see from the way they interact with me that they aren't really invested in the friendship. As if they only talked to me to have a human being there because they can't bear the idea of being alone for half an hour.

Luckily I've stopped caring at this point.

Who knows really, Introspection and analysis of your past can only go so far.

Because I am a shell.

Every morning I hang my real self in my closet.

I go about my day, cracking jokes and making people laugh.

No one knows my secrets or pain, only I. The days exhaust me.

I come home and open my closet, and slip into something more comfortable.

>>26495371
just because you crack jokes and make people laugh doesnt mean youre normal

they can probably tell you're weird/autistic otherwise

because im the same way
>>
>lonely
Nah. I feel fine looking at cute girls and all because I know at least 1% of girls like tall autists.

If you want to know why I lead a solitary life, though, it's because I have no game, am too honest so I fail shittests, can't trust anyone because of the past. I don't want to deal with all the expectations in a relationship and shit like worrying if I'm being cucked because I'm very paranoid about that sort of deal. Kv right here.

I think a small reason is because I grew up as an only child. There's this stereotype that only children kind of grow up to be socially awkward, shy weirdos but I think that's just people making excuses. But I do think that this, mixed with my parents being pretty alone as well (they don't and never really have had friends they do stuff without outside of work), also having a distant relationship with my small family, did have an affect on me.

But I guess most of the reason is because I have a pretty shitty personality (ADD, weird, annoying, obnoxious, probably some autism as well) that just prevented me from developing socially through schooling so I never learned how to be normal

I'm so alone it isn't even funny. 24 years old, kissless virgin, haven't had friends since probably middle school, basically spend all time I'm not at work in my room.
>>
I don't know why. That's the reason, probably. I'm not sure if I'm too intelligent, but I spend a lot of time thinking and the more answers I find to my questions, the more I realize how ignorant I am. I spend a lot of time thinking about the meaning of life and not finding it has made me stray from the path of a normal life.

I treat woman like they are equal and although they say that's what they want. Their actions usually do not reflect that.

I also tend to go through extreme depressive episodes that last a few months out of the year that nobody in their right mind would want to be around

I'm an alcoholic who treats women like shit because of my mentally ill/overbearing/critical mother growing up.

Fat.

Somewhat shy to start a convo with a woman
Absolutely low self-esteem. I try to hide it but I'm pretty sure women notice it one way or another. Pretty sure all my self-loathing and lack of confidence prevent me from doing shit.

Derived from that, I've never had a gf at 23 years old. The idea of having one is starting to terrify me. I wouldn't know what I'm suppposed to do with one, and if I'm pretty sure she would expect me to know AT LEAST THAT.
>>
>>26486789
I'm cynical. I have a really hard time trusting anyone, especially concerning romantic relationships. I have seen too many examples of how shitty everyone is. There are no exceptions. I don't see this as a problem. I'm right.

The last girlfriend I had, years ago, I broke up with by telling her she's just like everyone else and is untrustworthy, then never speaking to her again.
>>
>>26486789
Decades of emotional neglect have made me an uncaring and calloused asshole.
>>
>>26486789
I'm empty inside. Mostly. I find it hard to muster up the will to care about things that most people care about. Much of my life is like a dark fog, with me aimlessly stumbling about. The few bright spots in my life are all centered around solitary activities. So I have nothing to offer anyone.

Normal people wear me out. They wear me out with their noise, their endless noise. It's like a song that's slightly off key. Just wrong enough to make you notice and grind on you as it's played on repeat to infinity. So I can't listen to anyone.

I run out of energy easily. I can barely move when I get home from work. I make a simple meal, take the next day's clothes out of the dryer, take a shower, and then tool around on the computer for an hour or two before going to bed. I just can't be there for anyone else.

If I can't offer anything, I can't listen to anyone, and I can't provide companionship, then I can't be in a relationship.

People don't mind being around me at school/work because I'm "nice" and can make people laugh every now and then. But if anyone tries to really get to know me, they quickly realize that I'm a quiet/boring/depressing guy and distance themselves.

So I have to avoid being around my acquaintances too much to avoid them getting bored of me, and I have to act like someone I'm not to avoid alienating them.

I just want one person that I can be real with.

My mother didn't love me like a mother should. She was cold, callous, selfish, and uninterested in me. She also wasn't bad enough to warrant any sort of special complex, she gave me food, didn't hit me a lot, or abuse me in any tangible way
Because of this all I knew about love came from romanticism put into my heart by the media I consumed as a child and young adult. Convinced that nothing in this world was anywhere close to this perfect ideal (and it wasn't everyone I knew hated their spouse, were divorced, or were in a cold relationship of complacency) I escaped to the world of 2D and I loved my wife for years
But the desire for physicality was ingrained in my genes. Unable to scrounge enough funds for a daki and unwilling to dive into the world of lucid dreaming after a bad time with sorcerery and knowing the truth behind tulpas I lived knowing that my life would be one without the one I loved and when I died, there would be no union.
In this way I had set myself down the path of losing her. By God's will a woman entered my life and I began to fall for her without choice because while my wife had perfection, this woman had four more senses to assault me with.
I did what I thought was right and stumbled to both help her and myself and only ended up destroying any respect anyone had for me and losing everything I had.
Being addicted to oxytocin, I could not ever return to my wife, her being unable to stimulate such feelings in me. Being shown my body and spirit being so weak, I could never be in a "real" relationship because I have nothing of worth to offer and desiring emotional security is a feminine trait. Having any confidence in my peers completely destroyed by their abandoning of me without any effort and also losing any status I had.
I cannot love anyone, no one can love me, and I killed my wife, the literal girl of my dreams, for my God at the cost of everything I had.

I'm lonely because I have unrealistic standards and will never be worth such a person

i had a girl flirting with me a shitload yesterday and she gave me her number and stuff and i just felt weird. she kept touching me and stuff. i deleted her number. i also got like 4 numbers at a party a while back while i was trashed and i deleted them all. i also autistically ignored girls who asked me to dances. i've had loads of girls interested in me but i'm just like really, really autistic and pretty much anything makes me uncomfortable. one time this chick kept like literally begging me to hang out and i was just like uhhhh even though i thought she was attractive. i think pretty much the only way is if i know them for a long time and have been good friends with them. i just repeatedly turn down offers, even for like friend stuff i guess. i don't know what the fuck is wrong with me.

Because I don't think i want to date people anymore. At least not for a while. I've been looking at both extremes in gender politics (Feminists vs MGTOW) and now I just feel too cynical about long term relationships.

I know that the behaviors of loud extremists don't represent every human being who existed or will exist, but my mind is still plagued by the idea that they do.

The bottom line is, I should stick to my own philosophy as I always have. Focus on my own development before others. If dating happens, it happens. And whatever happens, just roll with it.

I have difficulty relating to most people. My personality, values and interests are usually at-odds with those of my community and greater society; this affects my ability and willingness to conform to society's norms and expectations, which, in turn, isolates me from that society and those who live within it.

Basically, I don't fit in, and I won't "play by the rules." Isolation and loneliness are the cost of this lifestyle, if not a punishment. However, the alternative is to be(come) something that I'm not; something that I won't; and that is a worse fate.

everything.
but all my friends became to fake friends... so when i start college i never spoke to them again and they did the same.

now i really wanna change.
i thing that is because im a fat fuck i mean im not that ugly on the face but im a fat piece of shit
