We live in a meaningless society. We've literally replaced everything with fucking consumption. Welcome to capitalism in the 21st century.

All the greatest authors have been neurotic incels and permavirgins. For example, pic related hated women, never had any success with them and eventually killed himself over one.

You should read Cesare Pavese's This Business of Living. Emotionally speaking I think Pavese is one of the few authors who knows, very keenly, exactly how bad things really are

He went volcel and managed a solid decade or so of a splendid writing career before falling in love again with another succubus and killing himself. I avoid women for similar reasons as yourself, and that book falling into my life was like receiving a direct warning from God that love - the way I do it - will literally kill me. It put me off a pursuit I had seriously begun to consider and saved me a world of trouble.
