Not me, im just built different

We isolated ourselves, by being terrible to each other. It’s not something that’s been done to us. We made it this way. We want to isolate, we want strife, we want divisions. Secondly don’t act like we have it worse than any other generation. If we wanted to change we’d change. But we want everyone else to change first. Then once everyone else apologizes and does what we want, then we’ll begrudgingly admit we aren’t perfect, but everyone else is worse. That’s what this generation is.

Sorry bro y feel that

Does take awhile man and getting legitimate friends is usually only gotten from a stroke of luck because the other person usually must have the same interests, compatible personalities, and is also looking for friends. Having hobbies, developing social skills, and putting myself in proximity with other people also doing the same thing as me whether it is school or hobbies made it much easier than being isolated. For example I've been pretty much friendless for like 2-3 years. I've had people I was close with but I wouldn't really call them legitimate friends where we would talk outside of whatever activity we were doing together. It's only just last month where I found a person that just vibed with me off the bat. He's slowly introducing me to his circle and it's been great. It'll only snowball from here. Besides, you don't need a lot just a few close friends are good enough.

SAME holy shit.

I wish you the best in this life and I hope you find friends that will make you laugh and bring joy into your life.

I totally agree, I'm a bit younger then your sons and I get jealous whenever my parents, grandparents, or uncles/aunts talk about how kids used to just be out on the street playing. It used to be like that for me but it disapeared when I was around 8 or so when we started getting tablets and consoles.

I was born 1987 and i'm in the strange situartion that i experieced both worlds, in my youth there where no mobile phones or internet and we even had a phone with this round dial thing to input the numbers. If you wanted to meet friends you had to call them and be lucky to catch them at home or just walk over to them and ring the door bell. And we played outside all day long - back then it was a common punishment for kids to be prevented to go outside. Later then mobile phones came and i still remember how exiting it was to be outside or just in my room and be able to call a friend or send text messages. Around this time i played video games with my friends most of the time, we still went outside but not as frequently as before but we still met each other to play since very few of us had access to internet But then smartphones and social media and the internet came and i started getting annoyed that people now started to expect me to be accessible all the time - i had an facebook account but only a short while but as social media spread people spread over all platforms and it became more and more complicated to keep contact if you didn't want to have an account on every platform. And video games started to expect you to be online to play with friends and it made less and less sense to actually meet to play And now i have some kind of hate relationship with social media and especially my mobile phone, I hate to be called - no matter who is calling I spend very much time with myself because after becoming an adult and people started working and having kids and moving in other citys many of them don't have time to play games anymore and keeping contact became quite difficult - especially with kids

Let’s be honest all that time hanging around at a friends house everyday was a waste of time and spent most of it getting drunk and stoned. Maybe the youth today spend it studying and learning

@@sko1beer Actually not true. We spent nearly all of our time together talking and joking around. Maybe 25% of the time we were roaming around outside.

27 years young. Left home at 17. I make small talk with just about anyone and have always been a known extrovert. Had no problem lying my way into social scenarios. But then when I was 23 I decided to start being honest. Since then, it's been harder keeping people in my life because... Well... Most people don't want to know the truth. People come and people go. I'm stronger physically and mentally than I've ever been. Isolation has turned me into some sort of beast and made the noise of silence so loud that I cannot ignore it any longer. Starting junior year of college tomorrow. I'm going to ask some attractive people if they'll be my friends. I know it probably won't last. But a guy can hope, right?

23 and 1 or 2 friends but honestly they've helped me in situations when I felt my family couldn't help.

Someone won't come and take you away, but there's always someone waiting for someone or something to come into their life. Connection is a two way street. Make an effort to connect with people and you will find what you are looking for.

@blake1177 Yeah, you're right. Sometimes I think that there is something wrong with me for not having an instagram, tik tok or whatever. Ofc the blame is on me in the end of the day. I lack the social skills or an interesting life for such platforms and don't have that much will to change those things.

@blake1177 Well most of us are more social online then irl, but thanks. Also don't think that you are a side character dude. We all have our own stories. Even if we are the only characters in them...

Honestly great advice! I've already been on the bandwagon of quitting social media as it's been truly toxic but I'm still clinging on onto my smartphone and watching RU-vid half the days I'm not working. While there are great videos like this, I'm still at a plateau at not progressing on any of my goals because I haven't gotten up from my bed yet like I've always wanted to. The first step that I feel will help me is to get rid of this damn smartphone and up to a flip phone so I can find other more productive things to do with my time that's actually fulfilling.

I felt this but still am afraid of the abyss bc it's dark and lonely. But couldn't agree more with your logic of rawdogin the pain and loneliness. I feel like a lot of people don't like that bc that's what they were forced to do as a kid(no drugs or social media for the most part), and we hated every minute of it. So we rather choose the infinity of the internet than the abyss of loneliness.

reincarnation is what happens, but you don’t remember the overhead everyday things like that; the ‘RAM’ is erased, only what’s baked into the hard-drive storage memory through a lifetime is kept. “i know because i have a degree in reincarnation from the university of woo” ;)

Can I just say, I was one of the popular kids you speak of. I had really close friends and a wider circle. I dated pretty girls and had a great time. However, the whole time I remember thinking how horrible it must be to be on the other side. I know you looked at those kids at thought "they must not know how lucky they are". However some do. It may sound big headed, but I did. Your comment reminded me how lucky I was, and that is meant as a compliment, comments like this make me reflect and be even more grateful for every single day I had. You probably didn't expect this reaction, but your comment was a gift to someone completely unlike you and that's a pretty special thing. You might read this comment and think what an asshole as I haven't really articulated the point well, but what I'm saying is you didn't have a bad time for nothing friend, it did impact others even if you didn't think so.

But isn't the existence of people like that a great opportunity to learn? When I see a more successful man than myself, I automatically think, what mindset does he have to produce his behaviors. After you "analyze" a number of such people, you start to understand, and I must say, I got a lot from it and I'm starting to become someone better. Some things I learned, you need a attainable goal that you will pursue without a doubt in yourself or in it's success. Everything else is a "side quest", but you should improve in all areas (social, your field of competence, spiritual, etc...). Do it in small steps, or you will burn out, obviously. Also, you cannot let your ego get in a way of your opportunities.

@@gucciadjective7745 mate from the comment you predicted my thought i will say thats one of the reason you are popular

When i was in highschool i always told myself they are popular succesful and likeable because they were born in better circumstances and i was jealous of everyone for no logical reasoning.

I need to call my friends, like I know they are keepers becouse they would mostly call me first wich means that they care!

I do sure we at some part when kid has social skills but it affected by the circumstances and yeah no one teach anyone social skill even in school as far as I can tell except someone invokes the topic/you just meet the topic It doesn't seems like a big deal but you will feel that it is some kind of deal in adulthood

Then what did I put my points into? Reading comp? DID ALL MY POINTS GO INTO A COLLEGE READING LEVEL?

As an extrovert, I also agree with this. Personally, I have lifelong friends that I consider my family who I've known for decades, but I also acknowledge friends are a temporary thing. In fact, two members of this family were recently kicked out for doing some toxic, unforgivable things. Peace and quiet is a privilege, and I wish I had more alone time because frankly I never do and it exhausts me.

I'm an introvert too, so I kind of understand what you say. I can only call friend to six persons in my life (now three, i lost contact with some), but without them I wouldn't have enjoy my life and learn as much as I have done. Of course, everyone should live their life the way they want to. Good luck with yours.

@@tomewifecollector9608 how? how do you make friends and make plans with them?

@rjk - A good starting point is finding common interests with others and slowly building up a relationship over time. For example, if someone's wearing a t-shirt from a show you like, try commenting on it and see if they're interested in taking the conversation further. Compliments and small talk go a long way and can sometimes take practice. If any of these tactics lead to a dead end, that's alright. Not everyone is looking for new friends right now, so consider it practice for future people who will be more receptive. If you're not in school, try looking around for interest groups in your area like clubs, community events, sports, etc. Work can also be a good option too. Ideally you'll want to be apart of something that allows you to be around the same people for a while, as more exposure to someone will develop your relationship into a friendship. Consistency is key and a little bit of persistence, but never be too pushy as that can scare people away. There are a lot more tips and tricks online that you can look into for meeting new people, but that's been my experience so far and where I've found most success. Keep in mind, this is still a skill, and the only way things will get better is if you practice and put yourself out there. Another trick I've done is if someone plays the same video game as me, I try to friend them in the game so we can possibly play together in the future. Minecraft is a good one if you're into that. How you hold yourself also makes a difference. You want to look approachable and friendly to people who don't know you. Keeping good hygiene, developing a sense of style, being groomed, etc. Trust me, this makes a huge difference. I've struggled with severe depression most of my life, so I've failed in these areas before, and during those periods in my life, I made significantly less acquaintances. Another tip is being genuinely interested in others. Ask questions, let the other person talk. Asking questions about them is a surefire way to get them more engaged with you and become more memorable to them. Always follow up on their answers and try to actively participate in the conversation. You have the opportunity to meet and learn about this new wonderful and beautiful person. Try to take that opportunity to its full potential. Confidence and self-assurance is incredibly appealing. People are good on picking up vibes, and if you're unsure of yourself then it can be a huge turn off for others. If you don't have the confidence yet, then pretend to be someone who does. Fake it if you must. Because faking it will eventually rub off on you in someway. For creating plans, that one is really about gauging how close you are to the person, if you're more comfortable in group settings vs 1x1, and finding opportunities when they arise. If someone invites you to something, always try to go if you can (unless it's like dangerous or something). Sometimes it will suck, but that's okay. This opens the window to meeting more people or putting you on the radar for future hangouts. If no opportunities come your way, then create your own. Hard day of work? Maybe ask some co-workers if they want to get some quick coffee/food after. Birthday coming up? Invite casual friends and acquaintances in case they would be interested. Be inclusive and try to include everyone you can. Choose plans that fit the environment where you're meeting these people. I wouldn't invite co-workers I hardly know to a family reunion, for example. Taking initiative to invite others indicates that you're willing to take the friendship further and allows for future plans to come up down the line. Plus, it always helps to treat others how you want to be treated. Those are some general tips I've acquired over the years. One area I'm not very good in is online stuff. I'm horrible at making online friends lmao. The only reason I use Discord is to talk to irl friends. I believe stuff like Discord or Snapchat can be a powerful tool in getting to know people but I don't really know how to utilize it. Some people do though and even used them on me before. A lot of friendships I've had stemmed from people consistently talking to me on Discord or Snapchar without being too pushy. Although, do try to expand your learning in social skills and try to learn as much as possible in order to improve your skills. Research online. Not everything works for everyone, and a lot of it really is trial and error and seeing what works for you. These are general strategies and tactics that have worked for me so far. I can't give specific advice because I don't know you, don't know what opportunities you have, or where your comfort level is at in social situations

@@glidershower very simpleminded assumptions youre projecting

It’s not hopeless. I can understand you very well. You can become interesting though. You gotta know yourself better and you need to notice the positive qualities that you DO have. Yes you have positive qualities as crazy as it sounds. You gotta practice a bit with people, you know. Take more initiative. Invite yourself to stuff if that makes sense. Like asking if you could join people. I know it takes energy to do that. You can’t expect people to make friends with you. You need to make friends with people. Be the approacher. The mindset of „I‘m not interesting enough“ is limiting you. But idk what to say to you. What I really want to say is please don’t give up. The course of your life can depend on this. Don’t become a loser. Your struggles are valid but some things I‘ve learned is that some things aren’t nearly as impossible as your mind tries to make it out to be.

Getting friends will not make you any less lonely if you will get into their friendzone. Real friends require certain level of homosexuality because you need to get a bit more intimate than just cold business relationship. Without that no matter how many friends you will have you will feel as lonely as if you had noone.

@@deltaxcd i think you mean vulnerability

@@adventurer2700 I don't think its vulnerability. Intimacy does not make you vulnerable it is just scary because your partner may not react to it as you would like. Vulnerability is when you expose compromising information about yourself which later can be used against you.

When you have time to yourself it's time do something with your time. Learn something new that can be of benefit. 1 or 2 GOOD friends is more than enough.

Your worth as a human being comes not from your strength or apparent weakness, but rather from the Image of God which you bear and are made in. Don't ever be tempted to kill yourself or to simply fade away, as these feelings will then lead you to further self-neglect, which will drive you further into despair. Basically, being a loser is a cycle of self-destruction, one which I am guilty of falling into. As a 21 year old male, one thing I have uncovered is that I actually am extremely hesitant and anxious about going out and doing what I want to do, and this extends to being afraid of making conversation. It is possible that this arose in me from perfectionism, but I cannot say. Either way, I am trying to simply be more reckless in how I live my life, just doing things rather than fantasising about them in my room (a habit I developed as a child as a form of escapism from bullying). As a result, I decided to get an old broken outboard motor, fix it up, and put it on a dinghy (with my uncle's guidance), because I wanted to get into engines and practice mechanical skills. My parents always discouraged me from learning new skills, saying things like "but you're no good with your hands," or simply "but you don't know how to do that!": I will never learn if I don't try. I am glad to be now old enough to have some agency to do what I should have done years ago. Anyway, the point I am trying to make in venting this is that I think the solution is simply to live. To be without remorse for not meeting others' expectations and desires. That said, take my advice with heaps of salt, as I am still a messed up detached loser with no friends, no social skills and no job, who fantasises about living like Big Boss from Metal Gear (or "Mad" Mike Hoare to use a real life example). You say that you don't think you will achieve anything in life. What is it you want to achieve in life?

Just wanted to say that you're heard. Life in this day and age isn't easy. I know you're afraid of making mistakes and going the next step feels harder and harder with each time, but look behind you, you made it to where you are right now. You are the version of yourself that has survived and strives. This might sound strange but maybe you're being too hard on yourself there. It's quite astonishing for me to see anyone being able to take care of another living being, babies and animals dependent on us alike. Just take care of yourself, too, alright? I would recommend you try to look for hobbies that are outgoing, it doesn't really matter what it is as long as you're doing it in a group. For me specifically it was martial arts - where I also met my first love. She was in her middle thirties and had a dog and was lonely, too. WIth quite a similar past trying to fit in & an overbearing mother that, by wanting the best for her child, pushed her often times far off the limits, damaging her physically and emotionally. Back then I thought I could help her, but helping her was like draining myself off my energy. I really, really tried to put all my effort into it, but helping her move twice, living through the last days of her beloved dog companion & seeing her at her lowest and being accused of being the cause for some of her issues simultanously while she was only able to halfway keep me in her life as a motivated workforce and financial backer, I eventually just couldn't go on anymore. All that was left in me just collapsed and I broke contact with her. Now, after Corona, I left behind a mess of what my plans for life were, basically starting from zero years later and I just want to go back to doing martial arts and taking care of myself. Take care of yourself too, and be open to let people in your life as far as you're willing to go. That's the whole secret. You will probably have difficulties finding a job even more now that you have a dog, as this means that you will likely have to keep them in your home alone for a long time during most weeks of the year. This is sadly a fact in life, but there are definitely companies that would allow you to bring your dog with you for sure. Ask and only go with how much you're willing to sacrifice, not how much is expected of you - and don't let people rule over your life.

25m, welcome to the club of losers. We are the ones who start many things and cant finish anything for ridiculous reasons or just sick twists of fate, like the pandemic that ended my study in electrical engineering and is the reason why im doing an apprenticeship right now at 25. Childhood was totally screwed.. so much so that i cant even talk about it with others without shocking them. Im a burden for my family. Have also medical issues but oh well fate is what it is. What helps me personally to get through is the belief that all your good deeds and all your suffering will get rewarded in your next live. Some kind words, a friendly gesture or some good advice to someone has much more impact than any amount of money can have, bec. truly good deeds shine through and even break slowly the fabric of this sick egomaniac society. Also ever considered becoming an educator? You are not too old to do it. You like your dog, kids are kind of like dogs but dumber. If you have the financial security then do it. Kids can do wonders to broken souls and suffering makes people wise and good teachers.

Its helpful skill

I'm an "introvert's introvert" but I developed that skill. It's what I do to reduce my suffering from being around people I don't want to be around. When you learn to talk about nothing to everyone, it makes being around them more tolerable. If you keep doing it, you will get better at it, because when you look into it, he was probably having the same 10 conversations over and over. Most people are more approachable than one first thinks. I mean, I wouldn't go up to a 1%er and start chit-chatting, lol. But as the saying goes "Be kind for everyone is fighting a difficult battle." 99% of people don't want to know us, but they're willing to shoot the shit about the weather for 5 minutes. As an introvert, I hate people coming up to me which is part of why I've learned to "draw first blood".

It’s pretty fun honestly (as someone who can) but I can totally see how it’d be very hard to do

It's because he grew up before cell phones were popular. People would talk at bus stops or before class to just kill time, after a few weeks of this, friendships started forming. Now, everyone has their nose buried in their phones as a defensive measure, to avoid someone engaging with them. Engagement is what it's all about, so they're robbing themselves.

@@burningdaylights Having a big family with lots of siblings was more common and fostered better social skills.

I honestly had “friends” like these back in High school. They were just what I call “table friends”. You can crack jokes and laugh all you want at their stories, but you can never talk about personal things.

This is why I'm alone. Once my kid died of SIDS and I got divorced where were all my friends that "had my back" throughout the years? Nowhere. Nobody gave a fuck and it almost cost me my life. So I decided to better myself with or without friends. Now that my life is awesome they all want to hang out again. Turns out they're all losers that just want to use me up. When the going gets real tough and life fucks you inside out you'll find out who your real friends are. Make peace with yourself because in the end you are the only one that truly has to live with yourself.

no way fred said that

@@TOO_RAW hey man, that’s shitty of them, assuming they weren’t going thru their own shit at the same time and really we’re just not reaching out. But the fact you’ve recognized you want to better yourself and they don’t goes to show that if you want to find better friends, you need to look for people more like yourself (similar interests, passions, valuing self-improvement, etc.). Don’t get me wrong, it’s still difficult to do as an adult and it doesn’t feel quite the same as making friends when we were younger, but you can still find people you can enjoy spending time with and getting close with. Sorry you went through all of that, and best of luck🤙

@@BubbaJems2 it was so easy to make friends in the past but after all that trauma I just cant get around to it for some reason now. It just doesn't feel important anymore. All of my motivation gets funneled into my career and hobbies and at the end of the day I have almost no energy to socialize. PTSD changed me but at the same time I wouldn't be where I am now in life without all that horrid shit I had to experience. Seems like the only way I know how to cope with the past is to work myself to the point of exhaustion and stay busy all the time. I'm self employed so I control my schedule but I still work 12 hour days 5+ days a week just to keep my mind occupied. At least I get to work in the wilderness every day and that helps me more than anything else. There's just something so soothing about working in the sound everyday and can go 12 hours without having to say a single word to anyone or even see another person some days.

The school district I went to high school in had already done the big school merge by 6th grade, so when I started school in my HS everyone had already formed their friend group for 3 years at that point. I could get along well with most everyone in my school, but I only did things outside of school with a couple of guys. Once school was over, I immediately lost all contact with them. I saw one of the guys I used to hang out with 4 years later and he was working for Porsche as an engineer, meanwhile I was working at some hole in the wall body shop.

i felt that

Imagine the world where people would describe their most healthy and free youth years as a "terrible decade". I am honestly terrified of what will come next.

Women too, sadly.

Fellas, your mid thirties are awesome. I've noticed women like older guys quite a bit, and by the time your 35 you've had some experiences and know things about life, women, relationships, and hopefully have built up your mental strength to handle life's problems. I 100% agree that my 20's were hard. Didn't know how to handle all that stuff. You figure out who you are in your 20's, it solidifies in your 30's, and your confidence skyrockets because your secure w yourself. Tldr; hit the gym 😎

@@UCABrSfFxOw_91MsYSwPABqQyeah, I relate to this feel as well as a woman. This kind of struggle doesn't vary much between men and women

Whats this movie?

C'mon, is that why my chicken is drying out in the oven? Hey, they lie to everyone, they lie to the fish

Lol it really do be like that.

I fucking hate RU-vid lol. My comment got deleted when the worst thing in it was "your [rude three letter word referring to someone's rear]" was referring to all the people not trying to interact in these comments.

But as I was trying to say, now hyper-self censored, I tried with like 10 people but only one of them is still sort of talking to me in the comments after a day or two, most didn't even respond once. I don't have much in the way of friends but I really see why a lot of these people have no friends lol. I get that initiating can be hard, but if someone else initiates and you ignore it, I don't want to see you whining about having no friends in these comments. Unbelievable bro.

Maybe some haven't seen the notification yet or something, but a few people responded once or twice and then stopped so some mfs saw it and didn't do shit lol

You should not do anything to get people to "admire" you, that's such a toxic goal to go after. You should do things that are fulfilling to you and make improvements for your own sake, not to impress or get adulation from other people

Get on it get to it, eat the dirt and walk the hard path, 'cause there's no other way when starting from nothing (or if you think you have nothing, but everybody got at least a little something - unless they're morbidly obese; guess they have the grave waiting though). Just be spontaneous and go do things, idk. Sometimes the only reason you need is "I don't know" and now you know. Just exist and stop worrying about the façade other people put on. As it is what it truly is for most you see: a façade. If that's what you think you want, then build up that false persona and go out in the world, you'll certainly have a level of success in vanity. So question yourself: is what you perceive others as what you want for yourself as well? Do not be jealous and do not harbor ill feelings about anything if the answer is yes. People are not that blind to strangers from my experience. If the answer is no, then the road is going to be different, and full of brambles, as at that point you'll be mostly alone and the answers will be very well hidden. Comparatively, the signs will be brighter than if you took the road of the blind... or the normie, whatever name fits. Have luck good fun

Don't compare yourself to others people

@@Somerled_Pox You can't change who you are. I need full root access to all my memories in my entire life in order to do that. It's beyond my control.

Get out of ur comfort zone: change your style, pick up a new hobby or search about a new thing. The differences u make can make ur interestingness shine (sorry eng is not my native lango but I think it fits beautifully here lol) and never give up on yourself. With these qualities or without, you can always make your life fun and exciting

I'm a male turning 35 in couple of months, trust me when you reach this age you'll realize people just come and go. Having friends is not that important. Chasing excellence in life is. What matters to me now is building my own business, meeting more women that suits my criteria, and hopefully one day having my own children. Career and family is what matters

Yes

da

Probably !

hey hottie

Nazalost

Same I don't know why I'm like that..

yeah this also hit me quite hard. Sometimes it's really nice to know you are sharing the same pain with others.

its not hard to make friends and they multiply exponentially the more u make. it's hardest at first I'm sure when you have no initial connections but my advice would be do the things you love the most and find others that do those things. but u can make friends anywhere.

@@ShadyRapture it's not hard to make friends but it's hard to keep the connections going for me at least.

This. Can close comments now.

thats how it feels

11:15 - 11:25 Jesus is always there. All you have to do is turn to him. Please. I want you all to have the peace that I found. Please purchase a Bible and get closer to Christ. Your pain will end. Three verses: Philippians 4:7 (KJV) 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 1:25 (KJV) 25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you. John 16:33 (KJV) 33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

try to never fuck it up. youll regret it. speaking of experience of ruining great friendships and relationships

@@eskaban_edits that ain’t happening. Like I said, we’re rock solid. I’d take a bullet for them and I know they’d do the same for me.

I’ve had the same friends for over a decade as well (since std 2 which is equivalent to 3rd grade I think, I was 8) I don’t know why but it’s just not easy to make new ones.

Over my school years, I have lost so many friends. After my graduation this year, almost of my friends ghosted me. But I'm glad my original group in high school are around and active. I tried to make friends in Discord but most friendship last a day or two

This is pretty much the same for me. I've got 3 guys that I know would take a bullet for me and I'd do the same for them. Gf of 5 years just left though and my social circle of females has all branched off to having kids/getting married/long term relationships. I have no clue how I'm going to meet a female without crafting some fake online persona. All my pictures of myself were with my ex

I think in non western countries friendship is more solid...

Not great, not terrible either

Non of us remember what normal used to be like, at least not gen z and millennials. So we can’t remember. We don’t know what’s normal anymore thats why we’re saying it’s “not too great, not too terrible”.

Already am there bud its amazing

You can be saved by Jesus Christ no matter what sin you committed For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 In other words Jesus is saying repent and come to Me, all who are longing to be happy through and through . If you are ready to give your life to Christ just say this prayer Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior.

I guess I was always a quiet kid but i had friends before high school but instantly started reacting to anxiety entering high school by isolating socially during classes but had a table of people to eat by that knew my name at least and one was a past close friend. I was a late bloomer and very self conscious about my looks envious of the older looking students that picked on me for being quiet and started calling me school shooter.

@@tjdude09 basically, if his co-workers are older, by that logic we could deduce that his co-workers took more time/years to get the same job anon has. So basically, anon managed to grind his way a little up the work hierarchy? But of course, he might work at a normal job where all are older just by pure randomness

Maybe he's a professor at a university where all the other professors are old, stale, grinches who once had a life like him, now he's on the path to becoming one if them.

i hate to admit it but yeah me too but i accepted it and im happy alone

@@DoctorEdgarMcQuack no youre not. If you werent happy alone before it means that your base biological structure demands that you have social relationships. What you feel is desensitisation to the loneliness just the same as someone who thinks they operate fine on 4 hours of sleep. Accept the painful truth and do this:, build muscle (that WILL make you more confident and reduce your suffering to moderate amounts) once you got enough confidence from this you start looking into social exposure therapy and meditation and therapy. Stop being a little bitch is what im saying and never convince yourself again that you "feel fine" being lonely, eventually you will get enough motivation from the pain to do something about it.

@@DoctorEdgarMcQuack you won't be later on.

Easier said than done..

@@makutas-v261 that's true, but you won't give up, will ya?

Yeah. I’m in that spiral. No friends, and whenever I reach out it’s usually met with a “im busy but thank you” or just no response at all. A couple times I’ll even get laughed at. It’s a losing game for a lot of us, you really have to spend all your energy building those skills or else you’re dead. The nail on the coffin is dating. Girls want men who’ve dated and know what they’re doing so the inexperienced ones struggle big time with dating. Unfortunate our society is flailing that direction but we can’t change other peoples minds.

Good luck mate. You seem like a good friend

have you unlocked the flamethrower feet ability yet?

I like this man.

Beautiful

I agree. However I would argue that's some people problem. I used to think that I was struggling with something smiliar but the answer was that I was being used and people truly didn't like me. So I needed to go to a different environment and got better results. So I learned to keep your mind open and don't fall apart at rejection. But also try to figure yourself out

@@mario125ww This was very useful

This is the answer. Start small. Take a tiny, tiny step.

Shit is the same as 19

Yeah after you graduate highschool and enter the "real world" is when you either become super out going, or slowly painfully dwindle away until you're absolutely nothing. With noone to rely on

I was alone all my teens so it was really only up from there. Went out drinking with coworkers and finally made friends after 7 years.

@@shamicentertainment1262my story is the opposite, had my own group of close nit friends in high school, was perfectly fine, pretty much got ditched by all of them, and the coworkers I actually liked either quit or got fired

Tnx dude , wish me luck , i will try

@@theonebeyondeverybody3213 You’ve got this man, now go.

I do but get turned down, like every single time

There are deeper and much dark aspects to this that if one isn't cut from the same block as the popular ones one will end up being invisible so when even the normies are struggling something is fundamentally wrong with the society. Just take a long look at the dating market and how only the top 20% or so of the population is visible while the remaining 80% don't exist. The same is often true once one move on from college/uni only for the normie friends to drift away as the years tick by.

I'm almost the same as in the video, also 23, except: 1)Never really used much social media. Started a bit during high school. 2)I actually did develop some deeper than "hello" relationships and I'm actually surprisingly effective at it it seems. It just seems those friendships rarely stick around, and I'm not just talking about sticking around me. I have experienced entire groups of friends that just weirdly disbanded right after I needed to depart due to life circumstances. And that was both during school and college. 3)My friends just all disbanded eventually and now I'm very lonely. I'm not very sad about it, honestly it's whatever.

You're not alone in this man, just take it one day at a time

28 here. Last time I saw my friends, was back in 2017. I try maintaining a connection with my uni friends by messaging, but they can't always answer, because they have their own lives to worry about (and they've returned to their own cities since graduation). I'm trying to get into online groups that share my hobby, but somehow, I feel out of place there as well, despite people there having similar interests to my own... Adult life sucks. I thought that when I grew up, I'd know things and do things; instead, I'm wasting away with vidya and off-brand content to maintain my dopamine levels just high enough to perform my daily adult duties like wageslaving and paying the bills.
