I ask myself this a lot. Self-deception is a tricky thing. Maybe on some level I do wish that I was less of a NEET. I have dreams where I socialize with old friends that I haven't seen in years, but when I'm awake the idea of having friends seems unpleasant.

Maybe it's just terrifying though and I convince myself that it's unpleasant because I'm too scared to go out of my comfort zone.

In all honesty, OP kinda stated the problem with normalshits. They always want more than they have, regardless of what they have. You have no idea how ridiculously lucky you are to even be able to lead a comfortable and safe life. The entire idea of such a lifestyle being available to everyday common folk is still so very new and fresh and it baffles me that so few people can appreciate it. People in the past, hell, many people today would fucking kill their families for the chance to have enough to eat let alone be able to spend every single day of their lives in total safety doing whatever the fuck they wanted to do and yet NEETs are idiotic fucks depressed because they can't have the life of goddamn James Bond or something.

I don't think they want to live an exciting life or the life of James Bond, I think they just want basic social contact. If you were to take a person from older times, lock them inside of a small room, but give them all of the food they would ever need, then I don't think they would be very happy.

Sure, they would be safe and well fed, but they would still want some kind of contact with another living thing.

It's not really the same thing though. You're just text on a screen to me and I'm the same thing to you. It's different when you touch another living thing or hear their voice. I can't put it into words, it's just this connection that you can't get through text.

I've never had a human friend, but I've had a dog and it was like that. He would know when I was sad and sit on my lap, we would go for walks, I would talk to him, etc. It's an experience that you can't really have through the internet.

Sometimes I feel sad, but I don't actually know why. I love my life. I mean, what's not to love? I take it easy every day, I have access to the fountain of knowledge that is the internet, and I spend my days playing or studying the things that I love, and yet I feel sad sometimes.

I wish I could figure it out. Really look into myself and see what I'm longing for. I don't think it's socialization because I know what that feels like and it's draining.

I suppose maybe I want a truNEET best friend. Just something like, "Marcus is my friend and we're going on a group date to the movie theater today. I'm bringing my DS with Rinko and he's bringing his DS with Nene."

I think that would be fun. We could talk to each other, play Love Plus together, it would be nice.

I think the problem some people on /jp/ may have is that we're so happy that we've become desensitized to happiness.

Our lives are too good. They're so perfect and filled with so much joy that the mind adapts and that level of ecstasy becomes our baseline happiness and we can't do anything to feel better than that so we just feel content. Not happy, not sad, just neutral.

I'm beginning to believe that a happy life requires unpleasantness. It makes no sense, but that seems to be how the mind works. The yin and the yang of it all.

Personally I know that I love being a NEET the most after I've been forced to socialize. Family members come over, I have to speak to them, maybe they stay over for several days, it's awful, but once they're gone it is like heaven to live like this.

I tried socialising with those types back when I was at college and quickly discovered that most fans of anime and stuff that you'll meet in real life are incredibly aggravating anyway. One of them even followed me into Japanese classes expecting everyone else there to be into Naruto and whatnot like himself. He soon dropped out of course. You're better off without such people in your life.

That said, there's a small chance that you'll meet someone cool, but the one true NEET /jp/er friend I've ever had eventually turned all normal on me after a couple of years and is now attempting to drag me out of my shell with him even though it's really comfortable and warm in here and most importantly there are no people. I dislike most of those and I'm sad that one of the few that I got on with is all outgoing and socialising and whatnot these days, but I know he's happy, so I won't complain. ;_;

I've had this before and it is great. It was only online, so I would imagine that it's even better in real life.

Unfortunately though, he stopped being a NEET. He got a girlfriend, a job, and he's so busy now that we don't really talk anymore. We used to talk every single day. We would play MMOs together, talk about whatever eroge we were playing, and it was great. Happiest time of my life.

I think one best friend is the key to happiness. The love between two best friends is the most sincere form of love. It asks for nothing, there's no lust, it's just two people who care about each other and want to spend time together. It goes far beyond romantic love, which is more of a selfish, lustful love.

You can do all of this truNEET posturing if you want, but if you truly didn't want friendship then you wouldn't be here. Why would you be? That makes no sense. Someone who doesn't want socialization and yet actively posts in an online community.

Just admit it to yourself. On some level you want a friend, maybe not a lot of friends and certainly not a normal friend, but a /jp/ friend. Even if it never goes beyond talking to the board then it's still a form of friendship.

That's what friendship is though. Talking to someone who shares your interests, discussing your hobbies, sometimes doing the hobbies together and maybe playing a game together. It's just like /jp/, but you talk to them on a regular basis and you know their name.

There is nothing more infuriating than this.

He started playing around with research chemicals he ordered from the internet and it changed him. He later started going clubbing regularly, got non-NEET friends and even a girlfriend, and we don't really talk much anymore. I think it might actually be a year since we last saw each other in real life.

Again though, I'm kind of happy for him in a way. If he wasn't happy living the way I still am, then it's good that he got out of it. I would never actually say anything bad about it to him, even though I don't have any desire to participate in it all. If it's the drugs alone that have messed up his brain chemistry and turned him into a new, arguably better person, then that is kind of sad in a way though.

Actually I have *one* otaku friend. He's the older brother of a former friend of mine.

We all liked anime and such back in high school, but then the younger brother suddenly changed and turned into a normal due to some of his friends. He started clubbing and often was like "sup anon hey you should go out more, drinking is so much fun!" and we eventually stopped talking.

When I started uni I was surprised to meet again with his older brother again. The first thing I told him was "huh... so do you still watch anime? because if you do you've got to watch..." it was a bit risky and I didn't feel very comfortable saying that, but then his expression changed and he said "oh I know, I plan to watch it soon" and we became closer again.

The bad part is that he skips most of the classes so I barely see him. And while he does a decent job hiding his power level (in the sense that he's not a OBNOXIOUS retarded faggot who practically yells at everyone what his embarrasing hobbies are) he talks normally about anime when we're near a bus stop or something while going home. Probably I'm too self-conscious or something, but I feel extremely uncomfortable discussing otaku things around normals.

That being said, I'd like to meet more people like this. I usually enjoy the time we spend talking and such.

The characters in VNs aren't really idealized. Maybe the girls are, but the friends are typically dicks. You can easily make a better friend in reality than whatever friend the protagonist in a VN usually has.

I think the problem is fear. You said it right there. You see reality as shitty, I'm guessing because it's unpredictable and potentially painful, but that doesn't mean you're some schizoid that would never want a friend. It just means that you're scared to make a friend. I feel the same way.

Well, if all you want is romance then you're probably going to be disappointed by reality. I don't see why the love of 2D girls can't be shared with 3D friends though.

I've had it before and it was fun. You have an idealized 2D girl that you love and you can talk about it with your best 3D friend who understands it and feels the same way about another 2D character and you also share other interests.

>it's silly to imply that visual novels are anything other than pure escapism, the experience of which can't really be translated into real life all that well.

I agree, I don't think you could ever have a relationship in reality that is as good as one that you would have in a visual novel, but I'm just saying that friendship is a whole different thing entirely and to throw it out is to miss out on an amazing part of life.

Personally I think it's better. Romantic love is very selfish when you get down to it, it's based on aesthetics, what they personally find attractive, if you're able to say the right things and make them feel romantic feelings towards you, etc. Friendship is a more gradual and long-lasting form of love that builds up not because of some sort of chemical attraction, but because you genuinely enjoy each other's company. It's sincere and honest love, while romantic love is volatile and lewd, based upon lust and attraction.

I don't understand why this would bother you though. I feel the same way to some degree, but it's no cause for hatred. It's just like when you look at another culture and they're doing strange things. It's odd from my perspective, but it's no reason to hate them. The lewd and perverse nature of normals just adds to the diversity of earth. It's interesting to have different types of people. You don't have to join them, but it's fascinating to know that there's such a wide variety of people out there.

NEETs typically hate normals for the same reason that western atheists typically hate christians.

They both live in a culture that is largely filled with people who are the exact opposite and they feel that they're being pressured to conform to the majority and they lash out. It's why western atheists basically ignore religions that aren't common in their culture and exclusively lash out at christianity and why NEETs hate normals, but probably have no contempt for the normals in China or India.

Are normals really judgmental? Sure, family members who are normals can be like this, but they do it because they care and they think they're helping you. They may be close-minded, but their heart is in the right place.

You can't really be judgmental unless you care about the person though. It's just not worth the effort.

I love how ridiculously distorted "normal" has become over the years.

What /jp/ considers to be a normal is the average /a/ poster, what /a/ considers a normal is the average /v/ poster, what /v/ considers a normal is the average /r9k/ poster, what /r9k/ considers a normal is the average /soc/ poster, and everyone outside of 4chan that has active social lives and is actually a normal, socially acceptable member of society thinks that everyone here is a huge fucking loser.

>> No.8911012

A normal stumbles into /jp/ thinking, oh boy I finally found people who reject the popular kids who wouldn't talk to me, I'm finally home!

But when these normals approach the NEETs they're only laughed at and degraded. This upsets the normals, they can't understand it. They were so sure that they had finally found their own, they can't let it stand like this! So they fight and bicker, you're all just autists, you know you really want a normal life, you're just lying to yourself! They try and hide their rejection, doing everything they can to bring these NEETs out of their shells. Afterall, these normal can't give up on their happiness so easily. In time more and more normals come, and together they pretend to be the people who even still want nothing to do with them, together claiming there's is the only way to happiness.

So they live their lie. In terms they would understand, it's like stalking a girl after she rejects your confession, mailing her over and over again, "why?".

I don't like normalfags. I'll be honest, I think normal people are the cancer killing 4chan. Look at /b/'s front page, it's all 'my girlfriend' this and 'my girlfriend' that, it's nothing but posturing bravado in my eyes and it doesn't contribute to the overrall quality of a board. Want to know why night time /a/ and previously night time /v/ were remembered so fondly? Because most of the people on 4chan at 2:00am PST are not 'normal' considering societal definition, often abnormal people are the most creative though, they take out their abnormality in artistic ways. That's why so many of them are good at creative writing (look at how many famous authors have been abnormalfags). And I'm not talking serial killer abnormal or, or anyone who feels the need to identify with pathetic subcultures like emo or scene, I'm talking about people who are just quite cynical and have an understanding of the term 'dry wit'.

In short, normal people are boring - they talk about normal things, their normal life with their normal girlfriend at their normal school/college/workplace with their normal friends eating their normal food and retiring to their normal apartment/house. They aren't interesting. Take that horse head dude on Nico Nico, he's clearly as abnormal as they come, yet he's absolutely hilarious as a result. The world would be fucking BORING without people like that. Basically, /b/'s content these days is normal people dealing with normal things in a normal way ('hey /b/, i fucked such and such a girl, but X problem happened, what do I do?') Tell me honestly, is that as hilarious as hearing anons give serious advice on how to jerk off over sleeping girls? Or hearing someone recount an genuine incest story? Fuck no.

What you're saying makes no sense. By its definition a normal is someone who is the average, it's the most common type that all other types are judged by. A normal would have no trouble "finding their own" because everyone around them is like that.

All that you've done is divide a community into two different camps with your truNEET elitist bullshit. One is filled with schizoids and the other is filled with avoidants. Neither are even remotely normal, but one despises communicating with other humans and the other is just terrified of it.

It's like fly strips. You can't avoid flies, they're unpleasant and disgusting, but they're coming anyway. You can setup a bunch of fly strips though and then all of the flies go towards it, get stuck to the strip, and stay there. This keeps the rest of the house clean.
