I'm not, I have a qt gf and more good male friends than I know what to do with, but I know some of you losers probably don't have many friends. How do you live with yourselves? PS Having very few male friends is better than being friends with a bunch of women, or even worse, having a woman BEST friend. Jesus christ, I can't even imagine how beta you have to be to enjoy the company of women in a non-romantic manner over the company of men.
Any Anons in the same boat as Paul Rudd in this movie?
Truly being friends with women is impossible unless you are so testosterone deprived that you are one yourself. I love my GF but when it comes to just chilling I would 9/10 times rather just shoot the shit with my buddies instead of her. Now put yourself in the shoes of someone who is not only chilling with girls for fun, but isnt even getting his dick wet from any of them either. Makes no sense at all.
I never had any female friends because I was ugly as shit and terrified of them. I had some friends in elementary and middle school, but I made none in four years of college.
As long as you made a bunch of male friends in college you'll be fine in life (probably).
You sound gay, bro
I get along fine with chicks because I'd never have the courage to ask them out. I also have no desire for sex.
I meant I didn't make any friends in college, male or female

didn't have another date, let alone get anywhere with any woman, for another 8 years. I also believe now that, considering how I presented myself back then (ill-fitting clothes, uncut hair, traces of acne, lame glasses, all from a "I don't care how I look" attitude), that the girl only accepted to go out to a meal with me on the assumption that I couldn't possibly be asking her on an actual date, and that she thought I was just trying to be friends or something. Most likely, though, is that she just pitied me.
Then you failed in life you fucking loser. Get off Yea Forums and the internet and fix yourself right now. Online forums are great if you don't waste away your life using them, but if you spend enough time being a faggot on here that you actually made no friends in college, it's not healthy at all. Jesus christ. No friends at all in college. Absolute blasphemy.
People like you are why people like Jordan Peterson are needed (at least the clean-up-your-room stuff, not so much the political stuff). Somehow your parents failed you so badly that you, as a voting-age adult, had no idea how to dress or act or be socially perceptive at all. And there are millions of guys like you. It's normal to be anxious for a date, it's not normal to be completely fucking clueless with how to be an adult by the time you are 18 (or for many on this board, well into their 20s).
A girl in one of my classes wrote me this letter in the middle of my last semester. I wanted to say thanks but never got the chance because I'm utterly terrified of talking to women
What is this even about it is very strange
He said if you hang with women but aren’t getting laid you’re gay. He didn’t say hang out with guys only for fuck sake.
Yeah there is going to be a problem when millions of men who were literally raised by the internet instead of their absent parents become adults. There is a serious uprising of social ineptitude among young men these days, and there will be problems when such a huge portion of the demographic gets left behind as they get older.
Once I got a letter like that delivered to my door by someone religious. It wasn’t a love letter but it was odd. I should have kept it. It was pretty much an attempt to get me to join their church.
The sentences are cut off and that handwriting is hard on the eyes.
What if you made friends but didn't keep them? I made a bunch of "friends" in college but now, two years later, I hate or and estranged from most and only still talk to 2 of them.
Moving on is fine. But do you have different friends now? Or do you just have no/barely any friends. You should maintain a social circle of peers that is at minimum 5 people large. Humans are social creatures, it's literally unhealthy to be very reclusive.
Keep in mind that the nature of friendship changes as you get older and career/goals/family/etc begin to take up more time in everyone's life. But make no mistake, even if you can't just bum around on the couch with buddies anymore, you still need friends.
My biggest concern with internet dwellers is that, as stated above, people begin to have less time for friendship due to family/goals/careers/etc. But I find that many internet dwellers are losing out on that friendship aspect of life while SIMULTANEOUSLY not filling the gap with the family/goals/career stuff. It just creates an empty life that is wasted. So if any of you are reading this and it describes you, I hope it lights a fire under your ass to get your shit together.
>So if any of you are reading this and it describes you, I hope it lights a fire under your ass to get your shit together.
leave him alone
Based isildur. Normies fuck off back to rddit
Women will really blab on about anything eh.
Agreed. I think that if you are somewhat reclusive/not have very many friends for whatever reason(s), you should be making up for that by fulfilling goals and accomplishing meaningful things. If you're not doing either that's just depressing, you have an empty life.
Yes, a lot of pseudo-intellectual losers on here (and Reddit too, maybe worse their since all irony is lost on Redditors) like to tout that people like Einstein, Newton, Beethoven were social recluses and look at them now! But they don't put two and two together and realize that these guys made up for being completely socially isolated by accomplishing great things and having a genuine and earnest interest in their life's work.
I moved to a new country with my gf two years ago. She had her birthday last year and invited like 30 people to the apartment for the party. I didn’t have any friends to invite. Thankfully I’ve made one friend and his girlfriend are coming to her party this year. Thank god I don’t look like a complete autismo this year.
You can use your gf's social circle to expand your own. It's not uncommon at all. You just need to have some male friends. The value of how male friends bust eachother's balls 24/7 cannot be understated, it is so important for what makes male personalities distinct from females.
>user copies a random post from /ck/ to fit in
yikes
I'm about to move to a new city with nobody I know there . How do you make friends if not for school? That's the only way I made friends in university and through them got introduced to other people .
It can be pretty hard to make friends in college unless you join clubs. I got lucky and ran into a family acquaintance that I had classes with for two semesters but besides them I didn’t make any friends.
You can make friends through work, or through some sort of club/hobby (as long as you go regularly so you don't seem like a weirdo who is only there to meet people). Any friend that I've made past the age of 27 has been from work.
Get a gym membership or do fun runs
Join a community band if you play an instrument
Look for local events or things like bus trips to interesting places
Jason Segal comes into the restaurant I work at every week. He's a super nice guy that is always welcoming to strangers, talks about his work openly, and is very very friendly. I guess I just wanted people to know he's a good guy.
Joining a local band is a great one. You have an excuse to be hanging out with those guys for hours on end and you can try out multiple groups of dudes. Bonus points that it's usually considered cool and chicks dig it.
If you don't play an instrument, sucks to suck.
nice
Friendly reminder that all of your friends would fuck your girlfriend given the opportunity. Some of them will/have already tried. Enjoy your "good" male friends.
Fuck off normie faggot
Im 37 and have 0 friends. I know no one. Is that weird? I sometimes go to AA meetings for human contact. Im too old to date after mt ex and I split so I guess I will just spend the rest of my life alone.
If you have good friends, they won't. People value good friendships enough to not risk it. They might if all context was removed if she is hot, for sure, but if you have good friends they won't try to sleep with your girlfriend.
But no matter how 'good' your girlfriend is, she would sleep with your friends given the right circumstances.
Not true, she's far too ugly
>It just creates an empty life that is wasted.
nah, that's why you do DBT and learn radical acceptance so you no longer need to have goals to be fine with your life
normies are fucking scum to begin with, you barely meet them and they´re already shit behind your back, fuck that, i prefer being alone if that´s the case
Fuck off OP, only insecure faggots in HS pride themselves on shit like that.
How long has it been since the split?
Not having goals is extremely beta. Like the most basic platform of being an adult man is having something to move your life towards, even if you completely fail at progressing towards your goals.
I've already achieved everything I wanted to in life, not my fault there's nothing left to do.
>haven't had any friend in 8 years
>still manage to date/have sex with women
I have zero friends
how did you do it?
1 year. I mainly miss my kid. Maybe im not too old to date I dunno, I just dont know. I stopped drinking but it didnt do anything. At least I see my kid but its not enough but I iust dont know man. I'd kill myself but my daughter needs me so I have to stay alive I guess.
I don't care. Wouldn't have a wedding party either way.
What are you doing here then? Go suck off your buddies you fucking faggot
i talk to them, i ask them out, and then i have sex
>my daughter
You are 100% a virgin, so why even make the thread?
Damn, that sucks. I have friends that are divorced whose only motivation they have are their kids. But they are all happy their wives are gone. Hang in there, bro. All I can say is use that motivation. Might not be much, but it's all I got.
>he said
Sure thing homo
but how do you respond in case some of the girls ask you about your friends? what do you tell them?
I have no friends. Last time I made a friend was at a workplace but now I work at a place filled with boomers, I mean you can talk to them but hanging out with them would be pretty weird. The benefits of the job outweigh though.
All my high school friends are still stuck mentally in highschool, talking about the same gossip shit so I cut them out. I dropped out of college and ended up taking online classes.
I just want someone who's not a total faggot ass normie obsessed with gossiping about others, i hate that shit so much.
Do any of them date or is it hopeless? I kinda got this 26 yo interested but it feels silly.
Been with my girlfriend since college. Had friends in college but slowly started to lose touch with them after graduating in favor of just doing shit with my girl. Now I have no friends and no one to be my best man. No idea what to do, its kind of embarrassing
ive never been asked anything like that
Unless you are over 50 then this is pathetic.
You want this to be true very badly, I know. Because you are a virgin yourself. And I'm sorry, but you are just wrong. I lived a very promiscuous youth and am now enjoying my early 30s with a qt girlfriend and plenty of friends. Sorry user, no amount of you telling me I'm a virgin will change the fact that I'm not.
Well there's clearly something wrong with you, no well adjusted person would be making this type of thread on a saturday night,.
>user why are you so alone?, don´t you have any friends to spend time with?
how do you answer this rethoric?
Most don't date, most don't want to (in fact all that went through a divorce refuse to). I'm close to your age and date (until recently), but I've never been married. I have a live-in girlfriend, but told her I'm never signing a marriage license, she's salty, but is accepting it. 26 should be the absolute cut-off, it's a meme to chase 18 year olds because they are crazy and annoying. Not worth the sex, either.
Honestly, if you don't mind kids, dating is easier in your 30s and you can date "up" with single mom. Just anticipate a little custody drama, and them having no money in the bank. My friends that split that dated again usually waited a year and a half, so you're still in a very normal range.
Looks like one of those Chinese spambots that are always in YouTube comments.
How old are you? Gossiping never ends but it does take on a much less important role in socializing as you get older.
But don't let high school friends who never moved on to bigger and better things hold you back. I had (and still have) a bunch of high school friends who were content with just hanging out and doing nothing 24/7. They get VERY jealous whenever someone attempts to break out of that and do something with their lives, but eventually accept the new you as you. It's the exact definition of the crab in the bucket analogy. You just can't let them shame you from being who you want to be. You may even find that your own ambition will eventually motivate some of them to move forward themselves.
"Fulfilling goal" is a completely subjective concept.
I'm studying for my professional designation. My study breaks are going on Yea Forums and making basement dwellers like yourself feel uncomfortable. Got a few threads pinned now.
ive never heard anyone talk like that but i would probably say i dont feel that way
This so much. Crabs in a bucket. Your loser friends will try to drag you down as you get older, doesn't matter if you knew them sonce pre-k. I wish I saved my texts from when I bought my house last year (it's pretty big and in a nice neighborhood). I got like 20 "good for you" and 3-4 "jeez, I wonder how much that mortgage is" responses. It's like on Yea Forums when a fat girl tells her fat friends she's going on a diet, and they all start secretly rooting against her. Salty, unsuccessful friends are a bigger drag then women in your 30s.
I'm 21, I'm trying to go back to college and somewhat salvage my social life. I'm like 3 years behind now so I'll be taking classes with the faggiest zoomers but you don't really make friends in lectures. I'm thinking about joining clubs but I always viewed them as a bit weird and waste of time. Idk most people i know at university still hang out with the same people from high school. I don't hate my high school friends but I wish our conversations weren't just the same bland shit you know, someone I could actually discuss video games, television/film, politics, instead of gossipshit and sports.
BASED
>I can't even imagine how beta you have to be to enjoy the company of women in a non-romantic manner over the company of men.
well if you don't view women as people you're going to think it's weird to have female friends aren't you. i'd feel bad for your girlfriend but i'm sure she knows what's up, since you spent your weekend bragging about your life to strangers.
Thanks man im getting my life together and this gave me hope.
Dude, hang in there. I have never had a friend get 2 years past a relationship (either divorce or long-term) and be for the worse. They've all hit the upstride at 1.5-2 years.
I moved to Japan years ago and have 0 friends here, my Japanese is terrible and the few foreigners I've met are fucking autistic weeb English teachers.
I don't really give a fuck tho, I got my fiber line, whisky and kino
21 is very young, don't worry. As long as you put your best foot forward you'll end up on the green side of the grass. At your age, it's pretty likely that a good % of your highschool friends will mature at some point in the next 5 years too. They are people too probably thinking similar thoughts to you. You can try to instigate some more interesting activities and whatnot too, don't just sit there and be upset about them being lame, that's lame in and of itself.
But don't discount sports as some dumb airhead stuff. It's great socializing material and can be a good distraction from life if you get into it. In fact it's probably THE #1 baseline topic that men can shoot the shit about. It can even get FAR nerdier, intellectual, and mathematical than most of the other shit you listed if you get into the stats and analytics stuff.
Oh user. Women are people too, don't be mistaken. But they are fundamentally than men in how they treat friendships. Like I said earlier, male friendship is paramount because the value of how male friends bust eachother's balls 24/7 cannot be understated, it is so important for what makes male personalities distinct from females. Women, because of their biology and because of how society has formed regarding gender roles, have absolutely no ability to bust balls on a friendly basis. There is far more to it than that that's the jist of it.
it must be such a burden to know everything.
thats not true. ive had 3 of my close friends gfs come on to me and i turned all 3 down. you dont do that shit to a friend
wow what a bro
>it's an incel pretends to be a normie thread
wow so funny OP, i almost couldn't tell you're a NEET loser with aspergers, you go girl
I absolutely anticipated the hurt feelings this thread would create but the psychology of having an internet stranger hurt your feelings and then proceeding to compartmentalize them as losers with disabilities, instead of facing your own shortcomings, is very interesting.
post your facebook so that we get verify your story then
>is very interesting
it's not. most of the people in here are probably drunk.
user I feel you on a spiritual level. I've got plenty of male friends I'm decent at making small talk but every time I try talking with women (even in a non romantic scenario) my Brain just ceases to operate and I start fumbling and stuttering. I'm going to be alone forever.
>don't just sit there and be upset about them being lame, that's lame in and of itself.
Thanks for the advice, and I agree with this. It's partly my fault as well and I need to acknowledge it. I've isolated myself and i've occupying myself with shit that isn't really noteworthy in a conversation. Not like my HS friends have been doing noteworthy things as they mostly just talk about getting wasted on the weekend and or some crazy story that wasn't totally exaggerated but it's definitely better than what I have going on.
>talk shit
>someone talks shit back
>very interesting
you know how i know you never talked to anyone in your live??
save it for the youtube channel chief
Man, Rashida Jones sure fell off the face of the fucking planet, didn't she
I liked her a lot in angie tribeca. It was like police squad/naked gun but not quite as good because no one was as good as Leslie. Writing and slapstick were really good tho.
Give it a go
Will try, thanks
Is this reddit pasta?
Redditors need to hear that advice more than most people on this board desu
reddit is basically facebook nowadays, they're normies and dont need this kind of advice
That stuff is all terrible advice though. It assumes that finding a woman to have kids with should be your primary goal in life. Its advice for men coming from a woman's perspective (ie reddit)
I hope someone cuts this little faggots throat
>normies
I pretty sure there are exactly 0 posts in this thread that insinuate that finding a woman and having kids is your primary goal.
Reddit is far from what actual normal people are like. They are a different brand of retarded than Yea Forums but they are not normal.
where do these elusive normal people reside?
YouTube comments
Not commenting on internet boards obsessively lmao. There are normal people here, and there are normal people on Reddit, and most other popular message boards. But the greater community of these sites is not normal. I would say that Yea Forums humor is more likely to make a normal person laugh than Reddit humor though. Reddit is where all the teachers pets ended up.
I made none in 9 years of college. You're still ahead.
>She rambled on, but I have never been able to get interested when women talk about themselves. It may be because women are so inept at telling a story (that is, because they place the emphasis in the wrong places), or for some other reason. In any case, I have always turned them a deaf ear.
-No Longer Human
Work at McDonalds for six months. I'm not joking, there's a sort of brotherhood to all being on the same shitty boat. Myself and everyone else I know who's worked at McDonalds have made several friends for life.
For some reason I had chances some of the hottest chicks back in high school, but I was too autistic to seize it. After what they saw as a rejection they normally turned hostile.
After high school I realized most of my friends weren't really friends, we were just around each other. In the meantime, I got values and now know what I truly want in friends and women, but I need to get my shit together to achieve my personal vision first.
The problem is I keep being sidetracked by Yea Forums, the celebrity posting makes me play voice novel porn games like Milfy City, which isn't really about milfs. I feel pathetic doing that, obviously. But I don't know man, I never can stick with a routine for long. I grew up watching fantasy movies and playing rpgs, dreaming of being a hero, but it turns out life is boring. Unless you stay at it long enough for a second of excitement.
Like, there is this girl right now who I think I might have a chance with, but what for? One night stands don't interest me, and I know I won't invest shit into a relationship. I want conpany but I also want to be left alone.
I just shared some thoughts with you because you're my bros, I swear if I see a single sneedposter ITT I'll make 9/11 look like a fuckin joke.
What if I'm in college right now and think most people are shit? I just can't be bothered making friends with normies who are even bellow reddit, and they likely sense my stance
What do you do for a living? Where in Japan are you?
Are you talking about actual friends or acquaintances? Cause the former is rare
I swear my life would be better if I hadn't broken my months long no fap streak

How to get into girls facebook
>women are so inept at telling a story (that is, because they place the emphasis in the wrong places)
I've never been able to put my finger on it before but you're completely right.
I suggest reading the book. Despite it's age it's full of gems that are still very much relevant today.
>During the course of my life I have wished innumerable times that I might meet with a violent death, but I have never once desired to kill anybody. I thought that in killing a dreaded adversary I might actually be bringing him happiness.
>Long personal experience had taught me that when a woman suddenly bursts into hysterics, the way to restore her spirits is to give her something sweet.
>I soon came to understand that drink, tobacco and prostitutes were all excellent means of dissipating (even for a few moments) my dread of human beings.
>I never could think of prostitutes as human beings or even as women. They seemed more like imbeciles or lunatics. But in their arms I felt absolute security. I could sleep soundly.
>Some nights I saw these imbecile, lunatic prostitutes with the halo of Mary.
>The agonies I have suffered night after night have made for a hell composed of infinite diversity of tortures, but - thought this is a very strange way to put it - the wound has gradually become dearer to me than my own flesh and blood, and I have thought its pain to be the emotion of the wound as it lived or even its murmur of affection.
About half the time the password is their name and variation of date of birth. I'm not even joking, people really are that retarded. When that isn't the current password Facebook will tell you that it used to be but it was changed X amount of time ago. Nine times out of ten it's still the password for the email account connected to the Facebook. In fact a quick and easy way is to right now go on your Facebook and search terms like 'hotmail' and 'msn' in your friends' posts and you'll inevitably find several older email addresses that no longer exist but are still connected to their Facebook accounts. You can create the email yourself and use it to reset the password. Failing any of that you could set up a legit looking email account and try phishing for them, but take my word for it the spam filters these days are fucking iron clad so guessing passwords is more reliable. Once in a girl's Facebook search 'password' in her messages - girls almost always share passwords with each other in my experience and you'll usually grab several more accounts this way.
I miss /stol/
I used to have lots of friends but I steadily lost them over the years for various reasons.
Now I'm in my early 30s with zero close friends and my friends are either work associates or people I knew from years ago and have virtually nothing in common with but still see every now and again.
I honestly don't know who I would make my best man if I were to get married. I have a brother in law but we're not close so that would be weird. The "closest" friend I have didn't even make me a groomsman at his wedding although he did ask me to be MC for what I assumed was out of guilt.
I haven't had the fortune of being attractive or desirable to women but I have experienced the rest of what you described. For most of my life the amount of socializing in school was enough for me to get by on. Now I work with a bunch of boomers and people at least 10 years older than me. The loneliness is starting to set in deeper by the day.
I'm turning 29 this year and hope not to see 30.
I don’t have any friends because I’m a genuinely shit person and don’t deserve them.
