Exact same feeling.

I think we grow tired of it especially around an age where the development of our identity has reached its capstone-years.
Schopenhauer ( since he was already referred to with the Pepe in OP's pic ) said: "Man reaches the maturity of his reasoning and mental faculties scarcely before he is eight-and-twenty."

I think the virtual in today's world is really the perfect ground for experimenting with one's identity and seeking a variety of stimuli to either like or dislike for ourselves to construct a 'self' with.
But having accomplished that, we now feel ready for a world we actually have only in passing participated in.
Mostly we were too busy here and elsewhere online trying to figure out who we were, not in the real word like it happened for centuries before;

I don't know if I feel *more* alone, but I do feel like there's something I'm missing that others have when they're together

I think, in part, it stems from the fact that I've known love. I was with a girl 5 years, and I know how deep a connection to another person can be, and interaction seems somewhat meaningless without it. They're all having fun, not knowing what they're missing, and I'm having fun too, but I know it could be even deeper and so I feel somewhat lost. Everything seems so artificial otherwise.

I only say that it might be that because I cannot recall feeling like this before having been in love

I used to be very ascetic.
And sex was never a thing I got where I actively pursued it. More like getting lucky.

And now, I feel like I missed out on this completely.
I was not only picky, but I was also a romanticist with a oneitis bullshit notion of love that caused more damage than anything else.

Kierkegaard sees one go from aesthetical to ethical and eventually religious.
Well I see myself regressing perhaps. But I feel like it's a liberation from those archaic notions which led to little happiness in the end.

I've gotten back in contact with some old friends from before I was dealing with all of my current shit, and they keep me around but I barely speak and at least one of them has commented on feeling more depressed.

I was a womanizing bastard who would get into short-lived relationships with girls primarily for the sex. I would always laugh at anons and call them faggots in relationship threads when they talked about being sad that their gf broke up with them. Recently I met a girl who I genuinely love and care for, ended up getting into an amazing relationship with her, and she subsequently broke up with me. Knowing that she is now back with her ex and possibly only used me as a rebound makes it worse, because at one point she told me she loved me and I am now doubting the truth of that. Now I contemplate suicide daily. I know the usual response is "women are all the same, find another one" or "lol oneitis" etc., and I've even said that to other people frequently. But that shit hurts when you experience it yourself.

Getting dumped causes huge narcissistic injury, and I am a horrible narcissist, although this realization doesn't make the heartbreak any less real. The fact that she picked someone else over me, and that that person was her ex no less (who texted her on Valentine's Day telling her to kill herself), brings about negative feelings of worthlessness and personal defect.

I used to watch quite a bit of anime back in the day, not a lot, but i really enjoyed it at least. Today after not watching any for about a year i went and watched first episode of kill la kill. It was ok but im not sure if im even going to watch the rest of it. I feel like im at that stage where im supposed to be going out with friends and being with a gf but im still not there yet, but im also passed the vidya llaying/anime watching days. Now im stuck with only books and a couple other things im into, which still cant satisfy me fully, so sometimes i just have sit around and think about all this.
