Book about wasted years you will never get back

>> No.15093013

Bump. I’d like to give a book like this to my dad. He’s always talking to me about his partying days but he never realizes that while he was out chasing poon and getting drunk his wife and son were alone wondering where he went. He still doesn’t think he did anything wrong and likes to chastise us for being religious and not a party goer like him. I remind him if it wasn’t for me and my brother he wouldn’t have anyone to to talk to and if wasn’t for the church our mom wouldn’t be buried so close to home

>"You will never represent, Raphael, a young girl’s erotic dream. You have to resign yourself to the inevitable; such things are not for you. It’s already too late, in any case. The sexual failure you’ve known since your adolescence, Raphael, the frustration that has followed you since the age of thirteen, will leave their indelible mark. Even supposing that you might have women in the future - which in all frankness I doubt - this will not be enough; nothing will ever be enough. You will always be an orphan to those adolescent loves you never knew. In you the wound is already deep; it will get deeper and deeper. An atrocious, unremitting bitterness will end up gripping your heart. For you there will be neither redemption nor deliverance. That’s how it is."

Imagine being a greasy thirty year old who bases his self worth on pulling party sluts by pretending to be richer than he really is.
The only lesson to be gained from youth is the realization that life has very little to offer.

Adolescent love is special because of the love, not the adolescence. Love transmutes the context into something "special". Young love is lauded as a special thing in itself because it's the most common way romance is experienced.
But if you date for the first time and you're old, you get to not only appreciate it with maturity but you'll also bring a refreshing energy to your relationship on account of it being a grand new thing for you, that will generate a more lively dynamic with your partner.

People who find love late don't often seem to lament finding it then - they appreciate it fully then, and consistently argue against the common sorts of worries you guys are promoting here.

Cope. Adolescent love is special because it is the least contingent on external circumstances - does he have money? How many cocks has she taken by now? Would we make a good fit in the long run? These are things that are not pertinent to adolescent love. There's you and her, going through it for the first time probably, feeling the purest expression of attraction between two people of the opposite sex that both of you'll ever feel in all likelihood. Time will wither your bodies and poison your minds with disappointment, trauma, paranoia about each other's exes and hidden sides, and a loss of innocence above all. The ceaseless flow of time will make sure that if you didn't experience it when you were a teen, you'll never experience it afterwards. Once it's gone all you can do is pray that reincarnation is real and maybe you'll be given another shot.

This poem by Dickinson always helps me to deal with it:

From the coast of gold, across the seven seas
I’m traveling on, far and wide
But now it seems, I’m just a stranger to myself
And all the things I sometimes do, it isn’t me but someone else

I close my eyes and think of home
Another city goes by in the night, ain’t it funny how it is
You never miss if ‘til it’s gone away
And my heart is lying there and will be til’ my dying day

So understand, don’t waste your time
Always searching for those wasted years
Face up, make your stand
And realize you’re living in the golden years

Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind
Can’t ease this pain, so easily, when you can’t find the words to say
It’s hard to make it through another day
And it makes me wanna cry and throw my hands up to the sky

So understand, don’t waste your time
Always searching for those wasted years
Face up, make your stand
And realize you’re living in the golden years

>> No.15094507
