Baggie not trying to be mean but I have seen so many dudes by plane tickets to see their "girl" but if she isn't reciprocating by coming out to see you every once in a while you may be stuck in a losing situation here in your relationship. I wish you luck either way.

Have you ever been in some Workplace / Project... maybe even a game or something

Where you communicate but dont see the person, and at first you find him maybe little clumsy... talks a little funny, its not just words or grammar it is so hard to explain because even children who only learn to talk have that something that drives them in a recognizable way...
Anyway as time goes on you start to notice mistakes, fails that seem just too much for bad luck, its like almost everything turns to shit when he comes near it, and you wonder why, maybe you even take pity and want to help him...

And when you do, idea creeps in like horror and the hair on the back of your neck starts to rise making you feel electrified in a subtle but uncomfortable way...

You know it but you dare not ask or look, you are looking for a way back way out but there is no way! The idea dawns on you have been willingly come into contact and approached a NIGGER.

At this point, I’ve given up all hope for a buyout and am just hoping it goes up a couple bucks in the next few months and I can cash out

How has being involved in crypto influenced your sense of reality and how the world works?

For me, I can't help from seeing literally everything as some sort of a scam now. I see almost all human enterprise as a series of clever pump and dump schemes, and I'm hyperconscious of the extent to which marketing, hype, and apparent crowd consensus can 100% distort my perception of a given product, person or idea. Every word, image, gesture, any piece of communication that comes from another human, I assume to be a slickly produced manipulation ultimately intended to extract value out of me and leave me high and dry.

>Work is a scam that promises security and material well-being but steals your labor and leaves you unfulfilled
>Retail goods are scams that promise convenience and fulfillment but inevitably fail to deliver and leave your wallet empty
>Films, TV shows and video games are scams that squander your productive time on trivial pursuits
>Food products are a scam engineered at the chemical level to taste too good to be true and get you addicted to junk
>Charities by and large are scams that manipulate your sentiments and route your money through shell corporations towards uncharitable ends
>Friends and romantic partners are scammers always trying to get more out of the relationship than they put in
>Even life itself is just a pump and dump scam perpetrated by your genes to get you to make copies of them before they kill you

Basically, if there is something out there in the world that seems appealing or promising, the appeal will crumble to nothing the moment you invest in it (money, time, attention, whatever the currency happens to be) and you will be left holding the bags.

Is this a redpilled attitude or has crypto given me a twisted view of reality?

That's it. I tethered up at $7350 for the first time ever since joining this shitshow in August. ATH $220K down to $40K now because I listened to the HODL meme through Jan/Feb.

Should have listened to the warnings instead. Volume is dogshit. Even look at the Feb 6 low and days preceding, compared to then the trade volume is half what it was, if that. Just whales toying with bagholders at this point. Nobody new jumping into this game. We're bleeding at least to 6k again, and probably a fair shade lower just because the whales are going to want to fake out TAtards who fall for the double bottom meme.

This isn't a shit post, or LARP or any kind of crap post. For the first time I just wanted to ask my fellow /biz/ posters if they ever felt the way I do. Hopefully to either console me, or help me move forward with my decision.

I've been in Crypto since early August, bought Ethereum at $280. I over invest my position, I realize that looking back how fucking retarded it was. Held for about three months, then got into ICO's when that was popular. Went full stack in ENJ only to essentially have the value of my position nearly destroyed by participating in the ICO. I literally lost thousands of dollars. I felt mortified, but dignified to embrace the HODL meme. Held for months until I got back to my ICO buy in price and quickly sold. Of course, at this point the price climbed to almost 3x my buy in. Frustrated I took a shot in the dark and purchased ICX the first day it hit Binance, full stack. Unknowingly, this would become the best decision I ever made in Crypto. Riding the December/January wave, I made nearly 8x my original investment. This is everything I wanted to feel, success, accomplishment. Everyone in my family called me a genius investor. I went from a low of $800 in my investment, to a top evaluation of over $17,000.

Of course, not learning my lesson I just held. Prices fell, I figured it was warranted after all of that. Eventually I got to $10,000, decided to simply continue holding as it was surely going to come back. Soon enough, my position was brought down to simply 2x of my initial investment. I knew what happened, the opportunity I forfeited, I felt like shit. I knew BTC was going to crash, I still do. I opened a 100x short @ $9280, only to be liquidated at the $9400 bear flag, $11 over my liquidation price before this latest crash.

I feel exhausted, I feel defeated, I feel dragged along. Realizing for the last almost half year I've slept far less, almost stopped working out all together. I look back now and realize how much I've been.....

I am in a really bad place too anon. My gf of 4 years left me. I feel lonely as hell. I feel like I will never fall in love with a woman ever again in my life. I wage slaved for half my life with nothing to show for it but debt. On the bright side I discovered crypto 5 months ago and I actually quit my job. I hope crypto becomes more valuable. I think crypto will continue to grow and we may not be the early adopters but I think we are the early investors. The masses have not caught on it.

I am glad that you value freedom and health because most people don't understand what freedom is. As far as the loneliness man I cry almost everyday. I was left and abandoned by a woman I been with for 4 years. She told me she loved me for 4 years and left me. What the hell am I supposed to do? This is why I look at females differently. It's fucked up, I really loved her.

Can we start a thread where we make fun of proud wagecucks? You know the ones with signs saying how they have pledged a sweat oath and how they are better than everyone else because they have student debt?

When's the best day of the week to buy some BTC? Wouldn't it be between Friday and Sunday?

And yeah I get what you mean. I still feel dumb for not signing up and trying to get tier 2 on Kraken earlier. I've been lurking for a week trying to learn as much as I can on crypto before entering, and once I've learned about all the tools and steps I needed, BTC price explodes. Feels bad but if BTC crashes shortly after then I will be a happy man.

Are we done, or do I need another drink?
