I think a lot of 19th century books written by women are great to understand a woman's emotions and thought processes. Obviously Jane Austen, but also George Eliot, The Bronte Sisters, etc

Anyone can pull a girl. Just stop being fat, wear decent clean clothes, lift weights, and be hygienic. If you sincerely do all that and still can't into women then it's time to think about kys yourself.

You’ve got to find one with a distinct talent, like a musician, artist, or maybe an academic in a different field than yours. This way, even if she’s lacking in general, there’s still grounds for some respect and admiration. Either way you’ll catch feelings at some point that force you to let go of that cynicism, temporarily at least.

It depends, erotica can depict sexual themes that can be even worse than the ones you already have with normal porn.

Maybe this is a tough pill to swallow, but I’m starting to think that autistically reading philosophy and literature (and taking about it online with strangers) isn’t a legitimate hobby unless you’re a student. I just graduated college and have been working for ~6 months now and have realized that the overwhelming majority of people, even “smart” people, just think it’s weird to have academic interests outside of university. Anyone else relate to this?

Yeah, I graduated 6 months ago too and I'm actually getting even deeper into my reading recently. I guess it's possible that this is just an objectively bad hobby. I honestly hadn't considered that lmao

No Longer Human taught me to "apprentice in women" with whores. Once I've fucked a hundred or so and I'm no longer desperate for sex I will exude an experience and confidence that will make women I actually care about naturally attracted to me.

Yeah, I mean it definitely alienates you from people a little. I work as a consultant and people think it’s odd I don’t read WSJ or [insert basic business book here].

On the other hand it’s also one of the only things I really enjoy doing. Just am starting to realize that I’ll need to intentionally cultivate other “normal” hobbies to have shit to talk to people about

>have an assigned mentor at my job
>hey will anyone care if I print like 50-100 pages on the company printer for personal stuff once in a while
>nah man, nobody would even notice. Do you have forms or something?
>No, sometimes I have PDFs I wanna read, but it’s hard to read on my comp
>Oh, like books?
>Sometimes, or papers, essays, kind of whatever I get into
>Yeah dude (voice gets louder in the office), nobody will care at all, but if you read PAPERS for fun we might need to take you to a happy hour STAT

It’s a good job lol, but it kind of amuses me to continually be reminded that most people only studied because they were forced to. College courses must have been an absolute slog for them then.
