When did you realize that literature isn't life? That maybe you being an incel is a product of sitting inside and reading, having an interest in epistemology instead of some dumb rapper's new album? Most women I went to college with and, are soon to graduate, are quite literally stupid and superficial. They are aesthetics driven, fall in love with the idea of something but never follow through with the reality, and have no time for genuine intellect from a male. You have to dumb yourself down, you have to be exciting, you have to be bad for them to even look at you.

I've come to the realization that if you fancy yourself an intelligent and knowledgeable person but are concerned with being an incel what that means is that you're not as intelligent and knowledgeable as you think you are
Or to put it more accurately you were never really meant for that life
You have just used it as a surrogate in the stead of the life you really wanted deep down all along which was just to be an average person who falls into an average life

>When did you realize that literature isn't life?

Without life there is no literature. Therefore, life is needed for literature; the opposite is not true.

>That maybe you being an incel is a product of sitting inside and reading, having an interest in epistemology instead of some dumb rapper's new album?

Being an “incel” is much more than a product of sitting inside and reading. Sitting inside and reading may be a product of poor social adjustment and adaptability. Poor social skills may be a product of being surrounded by dumbasses that want to be rappers, and the logic continues in multiple causal directions, making such cases corrolatory at best.


>Most women I went to college with and, are soon to graduate, are quite literally stupid and superficial.

Let them be stupid and superficial on their own terms. The best thing you can do is understand that you’re smarter and communicate just enough of an idea to play them to your advantage, if that’s what you’re getting at.

>They are aesthetics driven,

So is everyone, the object of what is and is not aesthetic changes. Money may be aesthetic to one where architectural design is to another. Another could just like the look of a clean shaven pussy on his dick. Fat people like watching cake boss. Each have their associates emotions and dangers.

>fall in love with the idea of something but never follow through with the reality, and have no time for genuine intellect from a male.

You are coping so hard I cannot offer you much, other than to focus on what makes you happy, and make sure that which makes you happy is none other than you.

Spooky nights, and they come earlier too

OP, let me put this way.

Imagine all your life, you're handsome, and girls all your life wanna suck your dick, you will be unable to understand a chad life.

Same way, all your life, since you're a small kid, most normal people will always hold a grunge or literally hate you, since you were a small kid, they always remind you how smart you are (simply how a hot girl is reminded every day she's hot), you lack an interest into plebians entertainment because is just stupid, trivial, dumb, very predictable. It feels like dumbed down shit for mentally handicaped kids. You need something to fill the empty void of your life where people argue about their retarded lifes and repeat stupid anecdotes about the same stupid shit they always repeat in every family reunion to strangers during the rest of their lifes, many times things that happened 50 years ago. Then you simply smile, but you're alienated because they don't seem to mind to repeat the same anecdata, the same political views, the same stupidity, the same triviality, over and over again, the same opinions, the same mediocrity.
After a while you're literally starving for some kind of intelectual debate, something interesting beyond the generic mediocre shit you see on anime, films, games.
Somehow at some point you start to read literature and find someone you consider your equal, or somehow someone smarter than you, you finally see there's another person out there that had your same concerns about life, and listen his ideas or debates, and you listen, and you learn.

OP, is not like we would prefer a social life, we yearn of having friends and getting a gf, but most people are simpletons who may be fucking NPC, like the fucking r9k maymay.

It gets tiresome to spend time with people who are less smart than you, since is like spending time with literal children, and most socializing feels like patronizing where they're silent when you try to discuss something you're passionate about and in the end they hate you, so is better to simply be quiet listening their mediocre lifes and mediocre problems about their mediocre memes they saw at facebook.

>literature isn't life
Understanding is life. Reading aids in the learning and understanding process. It is not life in and of itself.
>incel
Involuntary celibacy is due to lack of social skills. I myself am perfectly capable of socializing, as are many others on this board. The point is that this form of socializing, the socializing that focuses on getting "laid" is absolutely pointless to someone who is living a balanced life.
>Most women ... are quite literally stupid and superficial.
All the more reason to disregard "most women". Most people in general are not worth the effort to socialize with, hence the aversion to most social situations. Attention-vampirism of this sort does nothing to aid in a man's rising to greatness.
>You have to dumb yourself down, you have to be exciting, you have to be bad for them to even look at you.
Objectively wrong and bluepilled. You don't have to be a brainlet to be exciting. Women love balance. The man who has obtained balance between his intellect and his intuition is the superior man, and the true master of his own destiny. Women find this attractive, however, they have to get to know you on a personal level in order to see it. Getting their attention isn't the hard part. Getting them to give you their loyalty and devotion is. Through this whole process, at no point is a man required to lower his standards to such things as "rap music" or other transparent, banal frivolities found in pop culture.

I feel the same way. It's always maximum comfy bedding down for winter, having a warm hearth, etc. Winter isn't pleasurable, but it's great to be physically reminded that home is a place for respite. The worst time of year is late springtime when the trees come into bloom, suddenly the days are long, the lovers go waltzing outside, and life is being lived everywhere except my sad little corner of it. Truly, as a melancholic, it is somehow doubly depressing and insulting to see the rest of the world wake up.

>> No.12029704

The reason you're an incel isn't your interest in literature or philosophy. It's because you're an insufferable fag. I read all the time and post on 4chan and I was able to find dates. I'm engaged now, and it's awesome. Get a grip, dude.
