/lit/ - Literature

>>6322161
That's not a fucking /lit/ feel, you pseud.

/lit/ feel is falling in love with a woman after kissing her, having a manic episode, ultimately being rejected, and eating deep-web speed-paste for six months straight while you write your masterpiece of experimental philosophy.

>Telling me to apply for grants like they're a sure thing
>Life is going well

>Feel aimless and inauthentic
>Depressed, but in a way where I cannot write

I don't like it.

>>6322172
That's not a goddamn /lit/ feel either, you fucking charlatan.

/lit/ feel is finishing your masterpiece of numerology while holed up in an apartment in Siberia, self-publishing it, and getting no readers.

>>6322175
Are we going for actual /lit/ feels, or "le bohemian life" faggot shit?

The ennui of the 21st century is not yesterday's ennui. It is not being romantically oblomovian, or living the life of a Dostoevsky or Tolstoy character. It is being a commodity in a gargantuan market, which is simply a wart on the side of YA, which is a wart on media. It is walking outside to write a nature poem and being greeted by railing and pathways and bicyclists and honking, and writing on the railing and the pathways and the bicyclists and the honking, because the pastoral and the natural is dead. It is writing an elegy to the stars because the sky is dead because the city lives at night and hums into the sky. It is writing on the hollow and the codified and the quantified, volumes of work drowned in volumes of commentary.

If you're living the "/lit/" lifestyle, bringing me back in time with you, because all I see are cars and monitors.

If you are at Uni, take Creative Writing courses. If not, or you don't want to, join a writer's workshop. If you don't want to, go to forums dedicated to writing.

/lit/ is literally the worst place to post because MOST posters are bitter and will deride anything, good or bad, having become extremely cynical. You can get critical, helpful feedback from better places than /lit/

Is this a lit feel?

This is actually pretty close. I began talking to a girl recently. Nothing happened. We just spoke casually about our lives and literature. After a month of talking, maybe a few weeks more, she made an offhand comment about a bad sexual experience she had had the other day. The depth of the pain I felt upon hearing that is ineffable. I couldn't believe she'd fuck some other guy while she and I were talking. I had everything planned out -- the route we'd take on our travels through Europe, where I would propose to her, where we'd get married, our house in Vermont, the cozy evenings we'd spend together reading near the fireplace in silence, etc. -- and she ruined it all with just one sentence. I've been ignoring her since that encounter. I doubt I'll talk to her again. On the bright side, however, I now have the emotional fuel I needed to complete my magnum opus.

This is a true story, by the way.

>bookmark falls out of copy of War and Peace
>hadn't read the book in 2 weeks so I didn't know where I was

>>6322222
That's what I'm talkin about.

>>6322211
Not necessarily /lit/ but a step away from fatalism. Now that you've realized that none matters, you're free to do anything you want. You can shitpost here all day to your heart's content. Anything. Do it as long as it makes and keeps you happy. Good luck anon.

>being this /r9k/

You are not the center of the universe, and other people cannot read your mind. This is probably pasta. I hope it's pasta, for your sake. I hope it's just a joke, something to help you deflect, an exaggeration to cover up the small pain you actually did feel. If a girl existing and having had sex while you—within the confines of your own mind—had a crush on her, and that's what fuels you for a "magnum opus", please remove yourself from the gene pool.

>>6322236
Triggered?

>>6322163
actually /lit/ is repeatedly treating her like shit and never fully expressing how deep your love goes in the whole relationship, because you're deeply insecure of being fully loved yourself so not only withhold that love but actively polarise it, and then she leaves you and you toil away, reading and writing, in hope that you'll improve your mind and reach a level of success where you don't secretly hate yourself, so maybe when the next girl comes along you don't hate yourself so much and push her away

>>6322239

>>6322246
I disagree. If anon truly felt like he loved her, fucking another guy makes it obvious that she doesn't feel the same way at all.

>>6322246
You know nothing of that anon's level of involvement.

In fact, his actions (using the encounter as a springboard to getting some serious writing done) have nothing to do with her, it's all internal. I don't see what you all are getting so buttfrustrated about. Oh yeah, that's right, you're here from tumblr and are obsessed with anything you can construe as a microagression against le empowered woman. Fuck you both.

He was probably joking. If you cannot sense le irony dripping wet off each post on this board blue and bright, then filling you in, I am thus.

My freshman year (of high school) English teacher is pretty much /lit/: the person.

He's the teacher that's inspired me most.

Dont give up hope, /lit/eral retards, he married around 36 (to a coworker in the school and she had a top personality and is gorgeous) and has a daughter and maybe more kids by now.

>>6322267
>steal

>>6322259
So? You cannot control how someone else feels. This board has tons of philosophy threads; I'd expect you all to be more well-adjusted, more aware of this fact. Things are the way they are. If some girl does not like you, then what the fuck does it matter? If you're ACTUALLY dating a girl and she tries to cuck you, throw her away.

If the girl was never into you, or found it within reason to be shit to you, then you were incorrect to have feelings for them. Anytime I've ever been broken up with, or have broken up with anyone, it's always been without any negative ramifications to my emotions. The relationship is dead, so move on.

Getting caught up on some girl is normie as fuck. Just as retarded as feminists trying to destroy gender as a concept by employing it in all their rhetoric. Simply exist outside the bounds of expected feeling.

That's retarded. Anon had real epistemic reasons to believe that she was interested.

>Getting caught up on some girl is normie as fuck.

No, disallowing yourself from real passion is normie as fuck. You strike me as the kind of person to brag about all of the bitches fighting over him while simultaneously (&secretly) wishing for a woman to live for.

I talked philosophy and life with my best friend every night for months. When he started holding doors open for me, and being nice and shit, I knew something was up. It was weird, uncomfortable, and not at all what I wanted out of the FRIENDSHIP. God, I had to tear it out of him that he'd apparently fallen in love with me; made ME say it. It's not like I took pleasure in telling him that I was not interested, and that I had physical standards (inb4 le shallow). Asking me to just hug him and really pathetic, weird ass shit from someone I just wanted to talk philosophy and life to. Someone who I considered a good friend.

Weirding relationships up isn't always a good thing. Sometimes, people aren't into you. If so, drop 'em, or remain friends. But don't be a bitter fuck. It's retarded and pathetic.

>somehow I'm going to be "unreasonable" because /r9k/

>>6322286
>somehow I'm going to be "unreasonable" because /r9k/

Nice strawman.

Your situation is different than anon's, ya fuckin' cheez-it. Anon cold-called this girl and they started having real conversation.

By the way, you're really sociopathic for acting like it was unnatural for your friend to fall for you.

Reevaluate everything

>>6322286
>Asking me to just hug him and really pathetic, weird ass shit from someone I just wanted to talk philosophy and life to
I'm anti-r9k and anti-betatude, but seriously, everyone wants to be loved, everyone wants to feel affection. it's what they live for
He saw something in you that he valued, and wanted to be valued back. Pathetic and some weird ass shit? Nah, just pretty fuckin human

>>6322292
>you're really sociopathic for acting like it was unnatural for your friend to fall for you.

Not unnatural, just weird and not something I particularly liked. It's happened before, and it's always some grimy loser. It's really weird, when you can see it in their eyes. You look into theirs, and they might say something a little off-putting, and you can just see it kind of lingering in there, in their eyes and in the air. Feels like they know they've been found out, too, but they shirk away.

And they never say anything. My friend, still friends with, is the only one I've actually gotten the "I love you" out of. Even then, I had to straight out ask "are you in love with me or something?" to get an answer.

Why should someone have to reciprocate? Or even appreciate these feelings? If their love is so natural, then shouldn't I be falling in love too? That's not happening.

I don't think it's sociopathic at all to simply want someone to talk to: nothing more or less.

>>6322296
>asking your friend to hug you
>"m-maybe you will feel the same way I do if you do."

Not making this shit up. It was really weird.

>>6322302
>has deep & real conversation with "friend" (even though you talk so much shit) about philosophical topics

Fucking talk to your friends of the same gender about these things, or family.

>If their love is so natural, then shouldn't I be falling in love too? That's not happening.

You're so narcissistic it hurts.

>>6322161
I actually broke up with my perfect exgf because I don't feel comfortable in happy and healthy relationships and it was killing my solitary drive to do mathematics or read good lit.

I'm the perfect example of the pampered middle class child who's had a cookie cutter life and resents it.

>>6322303
And that's precisely the thing: this shit is not weird, it happens all the time. You're just making it out to be something extraordinary because you're a special snowflake.

Anyway, enough about that. Derailing the thread. Stop posting

>>6322303
You sound like a bitch tbh

>>6322305
>Fucking talk to your friends of the same gender about these things

It is very hard to find women who don't want to talk about feminism. You and I both know that.

>talk to someone about the self, or what people should do in life
>sexual attraction

How do these things mix, exactly?

And I'm not narcissistic. If I was, then I would have told him he had a chance, and strung him along. I was completely frank and told him I had absolutely no interest, never would, and that all hope for a relationship should be thrown away. That's the proper thing to do.

Friendship is maintained, by the way. He dropped out of college, but I doubt it was because of me.

>>6322308
Oh come on. If I was stupid enough to hang out with an ugly fat girl because I enjoyed talking with her, (lmao) I'd be pretty disgusted with the situation too.

>>6322310
It probably was because of you, let's be honest here.

>>6322310
Jesus christ, just get a trip already so we can ignore you.

>>6322309
Okay, so let's say you're just intent on talking to this girl, and then all of a sudden she starts doting on you and tells you she loves you and wants you to hug her. That's not going to be a bother, if your intent was only to talk?

You wouldn't seriously enjoy unwelcomed affection, would you?

Note that this girl is severely overweight.

>inb4 shallow because I don't want to date someone 3 times my weight

>>6322303
Trust me, I believe you're not making it up.
>Feels like they know they've been found out, too, but they shirk away.
Because he had a crush on you, something extremely natural, and ashamed because he was momentarily hit with every mans deepest insecurity, that they're unlovable (I can't say you have that insecurity, because you've got guys falling all over you).

>Why should someone have to reciprocate? Or even appreciate these feelings? If their love is so natural, then shouldn't I be falling in love too? That's not happening.
Because someone appreciates you as a human, that makes them shitty? No one chooses to fall for someone, it's a natural process.

You're not sociopathic for just wanting a friendship, your sociopathic for completely ignoring someone's feelings and thinking they're in the wrong for developing them.

you are the reason I have problems trusting women

>>6322318
>this much narcissism

You need a good fucking ass kicking.

Probably not.

>inb4 he's on antidepressants because of me

Yes, all the ills of one person rest on the existence of another. Very reasonable.

>>6322302
Christ, you sound like an autist, having to have him spell it out for you like that. He was your friend, he thought about you all the time, he was the only person in the world who thought as highly of you as you do, and you treat him like he's a creep. I feel sorry for that poor guy who somehow deluded himself into loving you.

>>6322310
>I was completely frank and told him I had absolutely no interest, never would, and that all hope for a relationship should be thrown away. That's the proper thing to do.
This is acceptable. Being grossed out at his attraction towards you and fundamentally rejecting it as creepy, however, m'lady, makes you a cunt

>>6322321
>all the ills of one person rest on the existence of another. Very reasonable.

Clearly, you have not read any literature ever.

Clearly, you belong on tumblr.

>>6322319
I don't believe she said that he was shitty for it. If a fat bitch was on me I'd tell her to fuck off. However I'd never befriend one in the first place.

>>6322319
>your sociopathic for completely ignoring someone's feelings and thinking they're in the wrong for developing them

Well, they ARE wrong. I would not have reciprocated, so they were objectively wrong to have fallen for me. I don't understand why anyone should take this harshly. If you love someone, but they do not love you back, then you should get over it. If they were deserving of your love, they would have loved you. I did not love them back, so they should have felt perfectly fine dropping me.

I don't see how that's hard to understand.

I literally had to, for HOURS, talk to this guy and explain to him that I would never reciprocate. Yeah, he did voice those concerns about loveableness and shit, but I was hoping that, by being incredibly frank and, perhaps, insulting, he would realize his error. It was silly of him to have felt that way, because I am a bad person undeserving of anyone's love. I proved my point—we're still friends.

>I don't believe she said that he was shitty for it. If a fat bitch was on me I'd tell her to fuck off. However I'd never befriend one in the first place.
Because fat women often have shitty insufferable personalities, because society is incessanltly cruel to them. beta/ugly men may be smart

>>6322321
Perfectly reasonable, and dreadfully common.

I think you're forgetting about all those 19th century novels that portray male characters getting emotionally wrecked by snooty bitches

I think you're b8ing anyway.

>>6322330
It is creepy and weird, though. So no, you are the cunt.

If you are attracted to someone, or beginning to be, you should say so. Then the feelings could be cut down before they take root and fester. Or, if they reciprocate, the whole game would be cut short. Both are better alternatives.

Openness is something I stress and appreciate. Crushes are, past the age of 12, honestly very strange and creepy. I do not like feeling that sort of odd admiration and adoration that comes with it; it makes discourse very uncomfortable. People should not hang over others as though they were drapes.

>>6322336
God you are insufferable.

>>6322345
>People should not hang over others as though they were drapes.

>>6322336
>I would not have reciprocated, so they were objectively wrong to have fallen for me
how the fuck would they know that you wouldn't have liked them back? If he wasn't a deeply insecure pile of sadness before this situation, he is now
>If you love someone, but they do not love you back, then you should get over it
That's not the problem here, the problem is being a cunt and jumping through mental hoops to convince yourself that you're not, and you're little bit about self-deprecation there came out of nowhere, as you were previously blaming him for liking you then saying you're the one who's a "bad person"

>>6322282
Just find your center and be you, teach-bro

>>6322339
That better a small violin. I am a bad person though, but this isn't that big of a deal to me. I just want people to talk to, not to love. I am undeserving, because I will not reciprocate. Love is weird and creepy.

>>6322341
Yeah, but those novels are Romantic and over the top on purpose. Getting emotionally wrecked over women/men is ridiculous. I honestly have very little sympathy.

I am not baiting. Everything I am saying is 100% true.

>>6322340
The intelligence of the guy doesn't make a difference in this scenario. Him being smart or a good guy shouldn't mean that she has to fuck the kid. Physical attraction is needed for one to feel "love".

Nobody is arguing that. What we're saying is that you're boring as fuck.

>>6322345
>If you are attracted to someone, or beginning to be, you should say so
ya, because allowing friendship to develop first to see if you jive is just idiotic. Oh ya wait, every girlfriend I've ever had started off like this, I felt her out for a while as friends to test our compatability and then it evolved
>Openness is something I stress and appreciate.
Right, he should've come strait out and honked your tits and slapped your ass, fucking lying cowardly beta scum!

>>6322350
He is far from a pile of sadness. His mother apparently blames me for his lack of drive these days, though, and for his therapy sessions. He assures me this is incorrect.

His mother has set up times when he cannot use his desktop. This is who I'm dealing with. A future trucker, current NEET, who takes orders from his mother. He is good at talking, but this is not something to love someone over.

>>6322345
>Crushes are, past the age of 12, honestly very strange and creepy
except for the part where if he was attractive, had good posture and was charming, you'd eat up the crush and want to fuck him.
Every time you use the word 'creepy' to describe this man I hope you hook up with a guy who skullfucks you so hard you can no longer breathe

>>6322307
It's not cookie cutter if you look deep enough, you pretzel.

>>6322362
>falling in love upon first meeting someone

I don't think we're talking about the same thing. Being attracted to someone and wanting to date them is not love. Many couples do not even utter the word until far along into the relationship.

Going into a friendship with feelings of love is silly, and I think you have as little experience with real love as I do if you think that's possible. What, is this love at first sight? Feeling out and love are not the same. But if you develop feelings for a friend, want to be more than friends, you shouldn't wait months and months until the other person forces you to admit your feelings.

I'd rather not crush people's hopes, but it's partially their fault.

>>6322345
Where's your sense of romance? Being direct about everything ruins everything. When a girl tells me too soon that she loves me, I become repulsed. When you say you want someone to be open and direct with you, what you're saying is that you want someone to approach you tactlessly. Emotions have to be properly cared for. If you just express yourself openly all the time, if you don't allow your emotions to quietly build up, you'll never truly feel love of any depth. Too much openness always leads to a quick dissolution of feelings. You need to learn how to read between the lines and understand social cues. It's all part of the exciting romantic game. But perhaps you're not cut out for that. You seem insensitive.

>>6322355
>I am undeserving, because I will not reciprocate
No, you're undeserving because you're shamelessly devoid of human empathy
>Love is weird and creepy
Stop trying to save face, if he was attractive and animated you'd suck his dick

>>6322362
You make good points but I don't understand why you guys are so angry at this sloot. She turned down a fat, most likely ugly guy that she had no feelings for. How does that make her a cunt?

>>6322369
This is the exact sort of thinking that sees divorce rates at such highs. People go in looking for a spark, looking for excitement, and marry when they find a very great spark. However, if this excitement is the main focus, you will inevitably find it fizzling away. If you are not fine with embers, you are not fine with love. Love, as you define it, must die off.

Love, as I see it, is something to pass time in the comfort of. Good luck on your failed endeavors—they will not last decades, I am sure you will find.

>>6322365
>You're a bitch

So she should have just let the fatty fuck her in the pooper so his feelings weren't hurt?

>>6322374
She's trying to justify it on 4chan.

Instead of feeling sorry for him, and moving on, she has to convince herself she has the moral highground.

Derailing an entire thread in an ecstasy of narcissism.

>>6322378
Just leave already.

Wow, you can bait 4chan by being completely unreasonable. Congratulations. Even though you keep responding in an attempt to feel like your feelings are validated, you'll still think about this conversation for the rest of your life.

Have fun

>>6322368
>Going into a friendship with feelings of love is silly
except for all the situations where it evolves into a relationship, though
>Being attracted to someone and wanting to date them is not love
love is subjective, it's a firing of chemicals and hormones, who knows, he may have felt more strongly about you than anyone in his entire life, dismiss the term 'love' if you will
>and I think you have as little experience with real love as I do if you think that's possible
nice projection. I have plenty of experience with many levels of love.

>I'd rather not crush people's hopes, but it's partially their fault
>I am kind of reveling in the retelling though.
This is the part, where, repeat after me you say "I an awful cunt, undeserving of love not just because I'm "bad" but because I'm hopelessly shallow, narcissistic and sociopathic. Any guys that have/will have crushes on me are solely based on my looks, because if they got to know the real me, they'd vomit on my shoes and walk away"

>>6322367
I might have exaggerated with the girl part.
I just didn't feel attracted to her even though she was the hottest girl I've been with and the nicest, hands down.
I just didn't see the fact that she had the potential to make me happy as a determining factor on whether I would stay with her or not.
There are many women out there who can make practically anyone happy, but that doesn't mean you HAVE to stay with them until they start fucking up.

To clarify, love as sweaty NEETs see it is weird and creepy. "Oneitis" is weird and creepy. If you've never been the subject of a NEET's oneitis, I don't think you can really talk.

Here's that reply you wanted.

It's a god damn feels thread... You guys crying for this lard ass that probably doesn't exist is what derailed the thread.

nice strawman. like I've said 3 times, she doesn't owe him anything and is fine to cut off contact, but to inwardly reject his natural feelings and think "wow what a creep" is abominable

>>6322222
I know that feel. I don't feel it towards just girls, either - when I'm confronted with the fact that people around me have satisfying sexual lives and real relationships, it makes me feel sad. I'm aware this is my fault and fucked up, but that doesn't make it go away. There's a real sort of blow to me when I talk to someone who's a huge nerd and internet weeb and then find out that they have a long-lasting relationship. Fuck.

>>6322390
Haha fuck I forgot about that, sorry. Carry on

>To clarify, love as sweaty NEETs see it is weird and creepy. "Oneitis" is weird and creepy. If you've never been the subject of a NEET's oneitis, I don't think you can really talk.
I've actually had a fuckload of unnattractive/social weird girls be really into me. Rather than thinking they're 'creepy' when I turn them down, I just feel good about myself that people see good qualities in me

>>6322390
He exists. I'm making absolutely nothing up. If you guys want to believe that it's not true, that's fine.

>>6322386
Just because I haven't fallen in love doesn't make me a sociopath. And it's not like I'm not upfront about how I feel. I tell people I'm not into love. Falling in love with me is strange, when people know that I'm not going to reciprocate. I say I'm not one for love, at least not yet, so why think you're the one?

And it's not like my life is totally devoid of physical interaction with the other sex. Men do not vomit on me before, during, or after. In fact, most seem to be fine with me not being clingy and weird. I like it when guys aren't clingy and weird.

Myself, and many other women, have had sex. This is simply a fact you are going to have to get used to. I would really think that /lit/ would be a little less vitriolic than /r9k/. It's not like sucking a dick makes you a bad person. Once the semen hits the stomach, your alignment shifts. You're like the guy from Clerks.

no one in the thread mentioned that though.

This is the part where I conclude you're either b8ing and you let your defences down or you're literally just mentally ill/have some sort of histrionic personality disorder.

tits or get the fuck out

>>6322420
What an empowering post.

>>6322387
I understand you perfectly.

No, of course do not stay with her if there is no physical attraction and/or you're simply not as happy with her as you could be with another despite her vibrant personality, kindness, and incredible looks.

Funny, I found myself in a similar situation, though I ended the pursuit instead of having dated her. She's an incredible person, has the best laugh and smile, can sing, has child-bearing hips, is very pretty in a very down-to-Earth sense, but for some reason my attraction just...kind of stopped plus she went away back to the college I thought I'd be attending but that fell through anyway.

If anything, I'm in the same boat as you- spoiled little middle-class cuck.

>>6322426
>A woman has had sex
>This must be stopped at once

I really don't understand. I'm not aligned with third wave feminism or tumblr in any way. Diametrically opposed, really. However, I still have sex, yes. People are free to do such things. I'm not proud, nor am I ashamed. It's simply the way it is for me.

>If you don't know their name when you're having sex, you're a slag

why respond to the one stupid ad hominem post, rather than argue logically with all the logical ones?

Look, stop beating around the bush. You came to this thread for attention & validation. On the contrary, nobody gave it to you. Just give up

>>6322436
Listen to yourself. It's less about you being a cumdumpster than it is about you having unrealistically high standards because you think you're the shit, no guy has been good enough for you yet IN YOUR LIFE. sounds pretty self absorbed

>>6322431
This is a blue board.

If you go on /soc/ you may have seen them before, but that's as far as I'll go here. I don't usually do that sort of thing though, so it's slim.

>>6322438
What logical ones? She did nothing wrong by rejecting tubby. She desired a strictly intellectual friendship.

>>6322436
>>If you don't know their name when you're having sex, you're a slag

Are you actually denying that having sex with someone you don't even know basic things about is slutty? Christ.

>>6322450
>>6322451

Kill yourself

>>6322449
>don't feel love
>high standards

I don't know. I just haven't felt love. I haven't felt a connection like that. So I'm looking for something less, and I cannot find that either. I don't know why that would make me self-absorbed. I do not love myself. I do not love, romantically, anyone. I do love my parents though, and relatives in general.

>>6322450
>If you go on /soc/ you may have seen them before,

I knew it, it was bait all along

>>6322453

>>6322455

Fucking pleb

>>6322456

I've said before, I'm very open and frank. Posting on /soc/ is really that much of a misstep? I will admit, there are far too many penis threads, but still.

>>6322457
>I'm a promiscuous cunt

>>6322455

really? every word that has come out of your semen stained mouth in this thread would suggest otherwise. that's right though, you're just saving face and being self-deprecating so other people's comments won't sting as hard.

have a nice life. enjoy that skullfucking

>>6322460
I'm sorry that I'm not the Ice Queen you're trying to make me.

>>6322465

Second time someone has used this as an insult. Very odd. I hope you lick a vagina and enjoy it. Is this supposed to be like that "bet you kiss girls" thing? Memes are moving too fast for me.

>>6322466
please tell me /lit/ has some script kiddies on who can get the IP and doxx this bitch, find out who the guy is and fill him in

>>6322465
You guys are all sympathizing with the obese guy on the assumption that love is real and not just one's desire to procreate.

>>6322417
No, screw you retards, this guy's right.

Maybe the slooty chick just can't into articulating her emotions (or lack thereof, hurdy dur) but a person crushing on you and you rejecting them and feeling so buttpained that a normal, human interaction happened that the other person has no control over (they have control over how to maintain it/respond to it and that's it) makes you a gigantic SEE YOU NEXT.

Maybe she's failing to articulate exactly how he acted, that's fine.
As I understand it, he "one special girl'd" her and she's overreacting like a SEEYOUNEXT.

Men shouldn't "one special girl" you, that's fine, but you're acting like he had the GALL to even develop those feelings for you at all.

You seem like you revel in being distant and mentally masturbate to the thought of being aloof and dismissive, which doesn't make you a SEEYOUNEXT, just insufferably annoying and dull.

shit, /lit/ really has no experience with women. "creepy" and "weird" is not something girls can explain the meaning of. or they are too dumb to do it
also nothing wrong with women fucking random men w/o any info about them. youre just projecting your insecurity because you couldnt fug a qt grill like that

but yeah woulndt fug this sloot, shes fucked up

I prefer it nameless. The times I've heard my name during sex have been very mortifying. I do not know why, but it chills me.

>>6322426
What are you memeing about, that post is GOLDEN

>>6322496
What the fuck does it even mean to not believe in monogamy? Does she think couples who stay together their entire lives are just pretending?

>>6322496
nah you're just dating a whore. women like the one "cucking" you and the attention sloot in this thread will get to the point where they either settle with a beta or literally have to completely lie about their sexual history to ever even attempt a marriage, and even then the divorce is inevitable

>>6322510
Well, I'm bored. Night /lit/. Please don't be creepy.

>>6322501
I don't think they're pretending. I believe that they truly think they're "in love" and "soul mates" but in reality it all started with a physical attraction. I think every relationship is attraction + friendship + the socially pushed idea of something more than that. At the end of the day we're nothing more than chemically driven machines that want to make babies.

>>6322506

How does it feel to know that any marriage you may have will statistically likely be a failure and you'll ruin your children's lives?

Night. Unsure if you're right or the beta is, but I sympathize with him, at least as far as I understand the story. I don't get how a guy liking you wouldn't boost your self-confidence and make you feel good, but I'm not a woman so maybe it's just a chick feel.

Hope you find the love of your life someday and read a lot of good lit on the way, not before gaining some empathy.

>>6322528
No, I'm the memester who wrote the SEE YOU NEXT post.

She has an empathy problem and gives the womenz a bad name more or less, but if nothing else it's produced some tipping-tier gold posts

>>6322525
Marriage isn't even in her far considerations, people like that live by "YOLO", so of course why wouldn't they indulge their every physical need to no end? If they successfully reach the age of 40+ their lives will be empty and worthless.

They incorporate some minority of the left but are always the most obnoxious and have NO values.

You could just move out of the city you know fuckwit

Why is /lit/ so /r9k/?

>>6322595
Not really. If she was emotionally cheating in her previous relationship, what makes you think she won't repeat the same fucking thing in her next ones?

You were saved from worse heartache, anon.

Being with the person you would drink sulfur for, only to find out they were incredibly lonely and looked for affection from other guys... hurts.

>>6322191

>>6322781
Life is the city. Everything that isn't a major city is a historic version of a major city or a town that desperately wants to be one. Look at any society and you'll see two opposites: living in a small village (which represents the past) and living in a major city (which represents the present and future). Every other town or place is between them, and are thus irrelvant in comparison. The same instinct that made one type of prehistoric man begin cutting down trees and settling in a small village is the same instinct that motivated white dudes to see native indians and their way of life as inferior and destroy them and replace their landscapes with carefully-designed grids of practical businesses and homes whose occupants have gradually become more insular and autistic and obsessed with order. Autism is the future. I am 100% objectively correct about this, and I'm usually pretty insecure about my convictions, but this is something I will be proven correct with. The future is a generation of autistic kids choosing the solipsisitic and carefully-controlled worlds of virtual reality over the comparative wilderness of "real life", which they will treat as inferior "server" on which to exist. I doubt the hoi polloi in this thread can even comprehend the place I'm coming from with this, and if you're still reading this post then honestly you've just been informed about something very inciteful about the future of our species. This is not ironic.

>>6322345
>Crushes are, past the age of 12, honestly very strange and creepy.

Yeah, I'm sure you're the kind of intelligent, forward-thinking person who can make reasonable and informed predictions about the future of humanity. The future you describe is Ready Player One-tier; it's wish-fulfilment for autistic losers.
