I have a decent sum saved up for retirement. I make around 90k a year and since I live alone and don't really have anything to spend it on, it's been piling up.
>>10958974
Maybe I have undiagnosed depression or adhd but nothing that has kept me from working or interacting with others on a daily basis.
>>10958981
I think you're taking your normalcy for granted. There used to be more people like me here 10 years ago. On /r9k/ you'll find some similar people as well albeit in their early to late 20s.
>>10959046
I've always been as cordial and indifferent to women as possible my whole life. I tend to avoid touching people since I'm not sure how they'd react. My only interaction with them these days is in professional settings so a handshake usually suffices. I do remember this incident in high school when this destitute geek in my class would get hugs from all the girls, it lifted his spirits up quite a bit. But I always sat in the back of the room and saw the groaning faces they made. I saw all of their friends silently laughing as they took turns mocking him. I think that may have subconsciously influenced me to avoid physical intimacy lest I become him.
>>10958987
Why would it be relatable if I were 24 and not 44? This is where the path of that hopeless 24 year old leads, he doesn't suddenly solve his problems and become a well adjusted member of society. He keeps making the same mistakes over and over again only those mistakes get harder and harder to wipe away. You tell yourself your just a kid and that you'll turn things around but then one day you look at the mirror and see a stranger in your place. Some withered husk standing where you're standing, moving as you move and then you realize that you blew it. That there's no salvaging this mess.
As for my days, I wake up and go to work, come back late in the evening and then do whatever I want for the rest of the day. I usually write and have managed to get 3 novellas published as well as a couple of essays in various journals.
>>10959126
My life is fairly boring and monotonous, not much to say. I tried to do what everyone else did on the surface but in the end I failed miserably. I went to school but never really made friends. My religious parents discouraged me from interacting with kids who were not of our religion (most other kids) when I was young so I never really hung out with anyone else after school. I gradually became more and more socially withdrawn, alienated, disillusioned with other people, annoyed at religious hypocrisy, lost my faith, etc. I was a bad student and finished college very late, by then I knew no one and had no one. I lucked my way into a job but I was never truly satisfied, the feelings never really went away. These feelings kept festering until one day I was 40 years old and my whole life had passed me by while I was waiting for the damn thing to start.

No offense, but yes most of them in fact do. Even the worst cases manage to hit some type of stride by their mid 30s. Not to put you down any. You can still change and work on getting yourself out into the world with small steps. Unless you've grown to romanticize your victimhood, which is a fight you'll have to deal with.

It profits you nothing to play the victim, and I say this as one of those "hopeless" guys who isn't even in the clear yet, not some clueless normie taking shots at you who has no idea how difficult and isolating such life is. I do - to a painfully intimate degree. But this defiant victimhood is a form of narcissistic self-love that you need to try and overcome. This funk that you're in is for life only if you want it to be. You can move on and out into the world, if you really want to. But you have to want it. Work at it slowly.

Not sure what her GOAT is but, she mostly reads YA fiction.

She does enjoy some of the biggest names in actual literature (Hemmingway, Wolfe, Steinbeck) but anything that requires any actual delving into the canon is too much for what amounts to a casual hobby for her. Only legitimate classic on her shelf is Middlemarch.

I talked to her about it and bought her about 5 books she saw in a used bookstore. She got really excited and told me with a huge smile we'd read together and she'd make it her new hobby

She went through some rough times and one night she began to cry. I asked her what was the matter and she told me she's dissapointed me. I told her no, you're busy. You have no obligation to read these. She cried again.

I saw her reading the first book she started today, really focuses, about halfway through the book. She takes a very long time to read a page. And so she started crying again.

Step 1: Pick up nerd tower
Step 2: Smash on floor of study
Step 3: Go for a walk
Step 4: Correct any bad sleep cycle habits
Step 5: Stop doing any drugs, smoking or binge drinking
Step 6: Start running, swimming, going to the gym just one day a week. Make it a sunday so no excuses
Step 7: Exercise more and more. Once you feel the positive psychological effects it will be like a new addiction.
Step 8: Stop eating shit. Don't eat any processed crap and always eat breakfast.
Step 9: Find a way to socialise yourself, join a club, a shitty social sports club. Just do anything that will expose you to people who will not be likely to knock your confidence.
Step 10: Put yourself out there online, tinder, match, cupid. Whatever it takes man. It's a fact that men gain confidence from sex, in fact they gain exponentially from it. This is why Chad is such a dick.

Finally: Stop watching porn... wanking doesn't really matter, once you stop watching porn you will eventually lose the urge to masturbate as often.

Note: This obviously goes out to all Wizards out there who want to make a change. It can be done and if you won't make a change but merely moan and wallow in self hatred, you deserve your fate.

She absolutely adores Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, and Grimm's Fairy Tales; but more the former than the latter. She also has a tendency to pick up whatever book I may have on hand and read through that; sadly, she never really talks about said books-- I don't know if she's just bad at forming opinions and generating conversation thereof, or what. Then again, I do recall her trying to read C&P one time, but failed to get more than a hundred pages in. I asked her why she stopped, and she told me that she had gotten sick and tired of reading about Raskolnikov being a whiny faggot.

Wait, so you never figured out pity sex? It's like pick up artist sex with a hot girl where you both feel disgusted afterwards, but you definitely don't during. It's like when you what you really need is intimacy and you convince yourself that sex is the same thing, so you beg some friendly girl until she's cool with it. But because you're sad and lonely inside you just come really quick and then lay there hoping to hug her and cry for an hour. It's masochistic, that need for intimacy, especially when you view women as antagonistic. It's really fucked up and worth a try at least once in your life, like sleeping with a hooker or having a threesome. The rationalisation you built up to not do something is boring, and if you want to really test your beta weakness for all its worth, you should submit to the cruelty in exchange for the intimacy like a norm human being. Otherwise you'll just end up not caring what those women think of you and then relishing every hug for the sensation alone.

She is a Chinese national, but is surprisingly not well read in Western literature, her undergrad major in Chinese literature in China.
