Have friends

>>15206536

Mostly work, they don’t account for the fact millennials work 50-100% more hours than their parents did to just get by.

It sure is fun getting judged by them when your lawns a little long or your house is a little unkempt. “Why when so got home I used to mow my lawn and tune up the car everyday, you just gotta do it!”

Must’ve been nice to work 40 hours (with paid lunches mind you so really 35) and have Saturday and Sunday off every week. Vs the millennial reality of 2/3 jobs and 60+ hours, maybe one full day off a week, maybe none.

Neat being called the lazy generation meanwhile you’re carrying an entire generation of drug addled adult children on your back.

>>15206325
HAVE SEX!

I think it's average to have like 2-3 good friends even if you're kind of a loner. I don't understand how some normies have like 20 friends though.

They don't. Just because they go out and get hammered together every Saturday, it does not make those 20 people their friends. Normies have no friends at all.

Have you noticed the increased trend in vouyerism lately? I don't mean like porn. I just mean notice how lately it's gotten more popular to "watch someone else do something" instead of doing it yourself. It's always been sports, such as baseball and basketball. Then it was cam girls that started getting popular. Then twitch streamers and thots. I know this one dude on YouTube has a primitive something guy doing old world stuff his bids get tens of millions of views. How big is Bella Delphine.
It's kinda weird. Humans are getting lazier and just watching others do stuff instead of doing tbemselves

Those 22% probably know alot of people in thier community, but don't consider them friends because most people aren't worth having as a friend. It's an inside-out thing that has to start with people being nice to eachother and getting over their ego, then maybe things will change for the better.

rotting away
many of the young people with potential to make good things and lead lives in which they're economically self-sustaining are all rotting away after being brainwashed since childhood to believe that the things that they love are bad, while the ones who thrive in a parasitic cuckold society are all talking to one-another about how all voluntary trade needs to be more regulated, and women and minorities need more financial and legal subsidizing

As far as the friends thing goes, I think non-normies like you and me (you're on 4channel so you HAVE to be a fuckup) are basically forgoing talking to other people much like how people are forgoing talking to women because easy access to porn exists. I got really lucky with the university I went to because picrelated happened and I was able to find the other weebs early on, so I was able to have fulfilling friendships. But this takes considerable effort since most people hide their powerlevels (and you don't really need to! Having a hobby is more interesting than the hobbyless masses around you that only care for insta and netflix, but most weebs got bullied to shit by peers and parents growing up so they naturally hide everything about themselves in most cases), and with a lot of Twitch/YouTube channels being vlogs about nerd shit I guess kids are substituting friendships with those channels. One of my irl friends works at a hospital and he said he got spooked because there were kids coming in for depression symptoms where all they did is watch Fortnite streams and never go anywhere.

The normies will always be well off friend-wise because they get together based on social status and making connections instead of based on similar interests. They don't give a damn as long as they can profit from your status to better themselves.

>>15206325
not business related! SAGE FAGGOT.
Friends are easy to come by faggot, its getting past the normies who spend more time on their phones playing games then sleeping. Shit drives me fucking NUTS.

>>15207294

False! Making friends -> making connections -> improving your chances of getting ahead in business situations. "It's not the grades you make, it's the hands you shake"

>>15207283
>The normies will .. get together based on social status and making connections instead of based on similar interests.

This isnt necessarily bad DESU, i have friends who are good with plumbing, window/door installs, wood, guns and cars. We typically use our skills to help each other out when necessary. It's not the best friendships but i do like it better than the highschool fair weather shit were friends would quarell over diverging musical tastes or somethign equally as retarded.

>>15207321
It depends on the weebs. Older weebs that got into the community back when it was functioning more as a support group than an anime circlejerk are usually really cool people because they've been through some shit, though some of them don't shower. Newer weebs that got into it after the big streaming sites took hold are usually insufferable and can only discuss anime in shitpost form, though some of them are alright. And this isn't an age-based comparison, some weebs are like you said failed normies that got into anime during college to laugh at it, only to have it become their main hobby later on for various reasons, none of which are community. You really think modern costhots that look WAY too good for this sort of thing stuck around for the community of awkward people that you need patience to interact with?

>>15207351
The trouble with "friendships" like that is a lot of those people suddenly disappear from your life when you've gotten into an "a little sadness" phase. That's why a lot of stacies end up being dog moms.

FB, social media. Destroying real life contact

Also biz doesn't help ;(

I don't know if it's just millennials or part of getting older, but it's almost like no one wants to make any effort to keep friendships anymore, as if friends are all disposable commodities, I have maybe 2-3 friends that will bother to stay in touch, but even then it's limited as everyone is too busy trying to escape their shitty job or whatever

usually i find it's me who has to reach out to anyone to establish communication, i even have a discord setup with friend groups to stay in touch, but even then everyone is too unreliable/"busy" to spend one hour playing a video game together even, as if everyone is a fucking CEO but really they are just a NEET or studying/working a shitty job

the only friendships i bother with now are actually wagie friends who you interact with often, i find one or two at each job, but as soon as you change jobs all contact drops to a minimum, again nobody wants to make the effort to keep in touch...i don't know why this is but it's pretty much the modern standard of our culture in the U.S.

>>15207585
Usually I ditch a friend if they're needy, worthless/self-pitying, or if they hang out often with someone like that.

>>15206351

>social status
Fuck off with this shit. Humans aren't primitive like this. And being social is much more sophisticated than "muh status" or spreading your legs and receiving a dick the way roasties do, which is something often alleged as being "social" here. The same goes for tinder and co. If anything, roasties are autistic for using programs like tinder, getting inseminated, then ending up causing problems for everyone else as single mothers. They are relatively AUTISTIC. Literally a pre-human state from a social perspective.

>>15206325

I agree and disagree with people doing this, honestly i tend to not enjoy being around people during a rut especially if they are the types that happen to always be in a "RUT". I don't mind helping friends out, but helping too many perpetual victims in my past has calloused my heart to such time/happiness vampires.

I've been wondering the same thing for many years now. When I was younger we just went to bars and parties together, but when that faded out no one seemed to make any effort to keep in touch.

Nowadays I spend most weekends all by myself wondering wtf I did wrong to deserve this. Like this weekend I have talked to absolutely no one. Today I just cleaned my apartment and browsed around the internet. When it gets too much I take my bike and ride around the neighbourhood with no destination in particular.

I'm 31, but growing up I kept the same 3-4 friends since middle school. We hung out regularly, some went to similar colleges, got similar jobs, married, drifted a part, but we still made an effort to hangout once a week. One passed away, and then one moved away, and now its just me and my one good friend left who doesnt drink/party.

We sometimes went out drinking and some of us had more friends on the drinking scene or work scene (not me) but they werent long lasting friendships and some would joke about avoiding making more friends.

Normies Ive spoken to so far have never experienced these kind of genuine long lasting friendships before, saying they would have liked to stayed friends with their high school friends. My relatives who are married dont have close friends, just very casual acquaintances which I think the norm is.

I'm happy to have the memories but wish it all lasted longer and still miss my friend who passed away as we spent the most time together traveling, partying, lots of all nighters, concerts, trying new things. I accept Ill never have close friendships like this again.

>>15208450
Ive only done one sexvacation but it was good. If I had more money I would do more or travel more and maybe try relationships in different countries. Gotta focus on making more money and hoping crypto moons.

>>15206325
there is a difference between being alone and loneliness. i myself actually enjoy spending time alone. having maybe 1-2 friends and dear parents is all the company i need. when alone I can focus on doing stuff I think interest me, instead of spending time and money socializing. it's all in perspective however; once you realize you are born alone, and you will die alone, you will see your body is all the company you need.

>>15208411

I wagecuck all year round, earning good money, living in a small shitty student's apartment because I'm living alone anyway, all my weekends are lonely browsing, shows, vidya, reading, and when I get really bad thoughts I drive or walk around the neighborhood.
I don't take any vacation, because where and who would I go?
Almost completely abandoned the idea of companionship, friends, having a "fulfilling live".
I became the perfect state and corporate drone, the system works as designed...

I know, right? The clue issue in this thread is a fucked up mindset. You guys can do a lot of fucking things and instead you wallow in self-inflicted, self-pity.

Here, I have some empathy, so I'm gonna give it to you all straight. This may seem a bit mean-spirited, but it's only because I want to get the message across. Ok, ready?

Stop freaking out you special snowflakes, surprise! You're just like everyone else! Now get over yourself and decide to be happy, or do a thing, or legit...WHATEVER YOU WANT.

Here's a hint: enjoy and embrace simply "being". If you can't stand simply "being" you in the moment, then how in the fuck is anyone else supposed to enjoy "being" around/with you?

I was always the kind of guy that my "friends" would sacrifice.. always the last one to get to know about events, often ignored etc.. after a while i didn't bother contacting any of them anymore because of how they treated me and the funny thing is that they started contacting me years later because i guess their other friends in the circle whom they cherished more than me showed their true colors, but i just ignored them because i don't want to deal with their shit anymore. I guess they realized that i wasn't so bad after all.

It's better with no company than bad company.

>>15208966
Key issue*

>>15208411
I've also been wondering wtf I did to deserve this, as before I was surrounded by a rich circle of friends who I could rely on for anything, I was invited everywhere and we spent almost every weekend doing something, and after college everything just stopped cold. Nothing else really changed except time passing by and people moving around a bit. It's just the harsh reality of post-school life multiplied by the misery-generating social media machines I guess.

It feels like /biz/ is all I have now.

I went from having a good group of friends in my teenage years to progressively 0 now that I'm 27.
I went through tough times with illness though and there was just noone besides my family to help with me, that redpilled me on the nature of modern "friendship" which is extremely shallow and superficial.
That said I didn't put much effort to maintain some of them too but there is a point where you diverge from your childhood friend and have not much to talk about and it feels more like an obligations.

Maybe it was different for men in the past who shared hard times but today it's really just about "having fun", there is no real concept of deeper connection.

Even my brother who is a Chad and has a crazy amount of friends in his 20s has now only 2 or 3 friends.

Not mine either, yet I know a sentence begins with a capital letter and ends up with a point.

btw do you all realize millennials mean people born between 1980 and 2000 or do you incorrectly think it means 2000 until today?

2000+ is called "generation z"

>>15210427
Just wait for AI

Im just chilling at my apartment being miserable with my gf who is trying to find work. Im just dreaming to get enough money so I could safely start a family and protect it from this society. Missed my chance of making it slightly in 2017 and now it seems like it's too late and Im too lazy to even start a business. Im waiting for my gf to leave me because Im unmotivated piece of shit and my dog to die so I can die in peace.

They always move that year kek.
I remember seeing articles saying:
1980 - 1997
Then
1980 - 1998
Now it's apparently 2000?
Everyone gradually realizes that there is not difference between millenials and Gen Z.
Both fucked up, gen z will have it worse though, the global depression is starting at the beginning of their lives.

it's because there's overlap when people are having kids, a three year movement is nothing. also there's no "they", just some vague consensus.
wikipedia defines millennials as "early 80s" to "mid 90s or early 00s". so if you're born 2003 you may identify as a millennial if you wish, though for me the cutoff is 2000 (well, 99). it really depends on how late in life your mom had you, if she belonged to generation x that is

>>15210537
Its time to start trying Anon. My gf left me because I was an unmotivated depressed piece of shit and I regreat not taking the chance at a proper life often. Its not even her I miss, its just someone. You won't have the balls to actually end it when it comes, its just more misery. You'll cling onto whatever you can to live because thats what humans do, you'll need some truely horrible stuff or poor genetics to actually kill yourself and you would've done the last part already if you had them.

Keep trying before its get too hard to do so again, don't make my mistake.

I want this sort of life now. Instead I'm stuck with a gf at her parents house in a stable job, I don't think I want to anymore after being redpilled. I forgot what it's like to be single I'm 23 and have been with her a third of my life.

I miss being alone in life. I worry I'm stuck in the traditional life forever now. A reminder for you incels, appreciate your freedom in everything in life except sex.

The rule is if you can't actually remember 9/11. You are gen z. I was born in 1996 don't remember it exactly, so I'd relate more to gen z

Literally what the fuck do I do? I've never even had a real relationship either- I'm not a virgin and I've usually done fine with girls, but I just haven't had a girlfriend yet. I'm only 20, but I feel like such a disappointment in that sense.
I'm at uni, studying aero engineering, got a job too, I'm fit and relatively attractive- yet all I fucking do is sit in my small dorm room watching fucking twitch. I literally have no interactions, and I used to do great socially. I’m just slowly being chipped away by loneliness.
My crypto and money is fine, I’m not worried about my future success- but I’m scared shitless of feeling like this for the foreseeable future. Is your childhood really the peak of your happiness? I hate feeling this way more than anything.

>>15208761

Staying in your first relationship is a mistake. Personally I found enduring the sadness of my first breakup helped me grow a lot more mature and less fragile. I know people who are still in their first relationship and they are honestly worthless as friends and as people they are so emotionally immature.

>>15207585
>I don't know if it's just millennials or part of getting older, but it's almost like no one wants to make any effort to keep friendships anymore, as if friends are all disposable commodities, I have maybe 2-3 friends that will bother to stay in touch, but even then it's limited as everyone is too busy trying to escape their shitty job or whatever

I'm a noicoiner playing Tekken Advance on a GBA emulator.

I read many posts. This all makes me sad. I am no different. This is end stage capitalism. Globalism is the new feudalism. They are commoditizing human beings. They rape you of everything then import more "migrants" to take your place. The institutions and structures that supported families, courtship, community, etc., in the West have been destroyed. You are now atomized and easier to rape and destroy. If anyone thinks I am wrong or crazy or whatnot please try thinking for yourself, look at how things used to be, imagine how things could be, look to who as gained power and what they are doing with it. Everything is out in the open. Leftism is the religion the Globalists demand we worship. Leftism makes us blind to what is going on. It takes advantage of high trust people and abused empathy in order to destroy us. This is not a conspiracy, this is a religion on evil and conquest. Revolution is the only way forwards at this point. Either way it's only going to get worse. All we have to do is reject comfort and safety, become strong and fight back. I know this is much easier to say than do but what is the other option? Indulge in Western comfort and safety until we die?

Based. I couldn't agree more on this one.

The millennials are the generation "Cuck".
The growing generations are more eco fascist socialists (see germany). Try to imagine a hippie german with a blonde wife and both of them are the stereotypical hippie and the man really loves to let his wife get fucked by african refugee unclean dicks and german hippie men love to eat the pussy of their wife after she get fucked by nigger dicks with nigger smegma.

How can i abandon this country ? Fighting is impossible here there are too much of those hippie-african dick lovers around here.

people are moving constantly these days for jobs and education, there is no settling down in one area and a job for life. everyone is coming and going so it never lasts, kind of the extension of the pnd tinder meme

>>15214429
I agree with the passivity thing... however, what is left to motivate us?
An increasingly shaky economy? Shaky relations between women and men ? The belittling of men ? The belittling of values ? Unrealistic expectations ? Consumerism for random shit we don't need, or even want until we have it drilled into our heads ? Unstable families ? Paper thin "friendships" and social connections ?

>>15207648
You know what. It probably is lol. I think I've read that when men get depressed, they isolate themselves. When women get depressed, the rely on their friends for moral support.

It makes sense too considering how fucked millenials are financially (student loans, shit job market, high cost of living, cut throat job market, etc.). Financial stability is more of a male issue too than a female one. Males are expected to be financially stable or are seen as failures. Women can just be stay at home sluts and are not looked down for it.
Males have the hardest burden.

I’m the complete opposite I feel. I’m struggling to meet people and I think it’s because I have to spend all my time studying

>>15215803
I try but I don’t even know where to start to fix this, so I am panicking. I don’t want my family asking themselves ‘why hasn’t anon got a gf yet- he’s 20 now’.
I’m socially fine on face-value, and I’m not an awkward autist; but I can’t make anyone care about me.

>>15215468

Surely men dont hang around women to listen to them whining?

Jesus Christ. Your in college and watching twitch? I mean I could fucking see a 27 year old doing this because shit just sucks now but your in college not going out getting drunk and fucking?

It's a nihilistic point of view, a terrible one. I myself am miserable from it, but I'm trying to change that. Often I see my 'friends' not wanting to put in any effort in maintaining friendships, or relationships in general. It's spreading, I thought I was the odd man out, but no. Speaking to other mutual friends, my friends are slowly removing themselves from the world. I don't know why specifically, if I had to guess, the most significant causes are :
1) Lack of a reliable family structure (in other words, nuclear family)
2)Social media appearances ( We only post the good things, so when someone sees it, they think that only good things are happening and they are living only blissful and exciting lives)
3)People are becoming less sociable, borderline hostile because of names, choices of words (aka mis-genderizing, racist/sexist/misogynistic language) I'm not entirely sure they get so uppity about it, but I imagine it's because they want to have power over you by being a cry bully.
4)misery loves company , simple reason, but why try if no one else is succeeding?

It kills me to see myself living in some kind of box, I'm losing my social graces, and I constantly want to cut off my friends because of the lack of effort they demonstrate. I keep making an effort into speaking to random people as to stop myself from being too cynical, to get some of my humanity back. That would be my best guess anon.

Best advice ever given on biz

>>15213624
It's just an attempt to categorize people based on the way they act and how major political/economic/social events have influenced groups of people throughout their lives.

>ITT parents blame their kids for being so shitty at everything, ignoring the fact that they offered their kids nothing, were too stupid tell tell their kids to avoid college so they don't have life-long debt and only ever offer advice to young kids like "don't be lazy and get a job"... which is horrible advice
You dumbass boomers and old gen X need to understand that your kids need to refine themselves at young ages. Teach them to learn. Do not teach them what you've learned (beyond lessons from experiences). Help them forge their own path by teaching them to rely on themselves and be productive for themselves. Only then can they climb out of the ole you dug them in by being so selfish all of your life in being as lazy as you've been. Learn of the wonders of the world and have plans to reveal intricate things to them once they're ready. Teach them to be autonomous and valuable while they're still young.
This is your chance. Take this advice. The time is now.

>>15212641
>>15218258
>>15218409
>>15219522
You people touting degeneracy need to grow the fuck up.
Refine yourselves when you're young. Refine your knowledge and skill sets.
Learn about finance. Learn about what interests you. Become valuable.
Make gains and move to where you want to be.
Only after you've achieved autonomy and value can you become a worthy sexual partner. You need to develop confidence in yourselves by being good at things.
There will always be youthful girls out there for you to impress. Wait for feminism to subside, then stake your claim. Now is not the time.
Of course, you could always make gains and then leave the country for less commie-brained girls. Russia is an amazing suggestion. Poland would be great. Others have suggested South America, which is also an amazing suggestion, but if you're a rich white chad, you're going to want the cream of the crop - white qts from countries with low levels of commies.

>t. mid30 boomer but technically a millenial

with internet we dont need to interact with friends anymore it's done online. i'm sure the next generation will rebel against social media and we will see the young boycott smartphones. it will be hip to just own a dumb phone and have no social media account

>>15221492
Same here. Even my so-called "best friend" I had for more than 10 years. I'm 34 and I feel like my life is behind me now, probably because we should have a family life too now... So we're kind of stuck in the middle, looking back at our youth, and worrying about the present and futur adult void.

study and read

I honestly know so much stuff its mind boggling (not saying its useful). The amount of knowledge i know have about very specific topics from botany, economics, geology, marketing and so on.

Constantly reading and learning is the only thing that keeps the Anne Hiro away. I actually feel kind of blessed that i have the opprotunity to just learn. Again, would probably like to have a wife one day but day to day im actually quite comfy just immersing myself in the pursuit of knowledge.

Right now im studying quantitative social research, just for fun.

yeah but it's wrong, you can decide your life starts now. You still have 35 years to go. You can find other people who share the same interests, plenty of other people who think like you out there. Look at tone vays in crypto. In is 40s or late 30s, no children no gf but he travels constantly and meet new people.
