i am tired of this. i am more intelligent than the people around me, yet i see them succeed where i only fail.

i have this grasp on the universe, on human nature that others do not have, and yet i have no girlfriend and just a small group of likeminded friends.

i am a well spoken, educated, tall, white guy, 23 years old and i must beg for a shit job to waste all my money at university. what is this life? why should i fight for this? to what end?

You have fallen prey to the ludic fallacy. You believe that an aptitude for games is proof of your intelligence, but it is only proof of your aptitude for games and idealized, unrealistic spaces. Like most people, you are interested in things you are good at, so you are desperately trying to get into University despite no inherent interest in study.

Given your ridiculously overblown sense of self-importance, I can't see where I'd care if you killed yourself.

Okay, really...what the hell does this even mean? If you have to go this far out to give yourself a false sense of importance then, perhaps, there is as little hope as you perceive.

You are a moron. this is the first question you should solve before doing anything.
You are a fucking hamster in a wheel, running to nowhere. You are not different from the retards in your high school that only thought of fucking.

Some of us could get women. We choose not, because it take effort and money. Even morons know that. They lie, they pretend, and they have been training since they are twelve. You just sit there and expect the women will fall for you because you are so fucking smart. It takes goddamn work, as anything else.

Some of us could get as much money as we want.
Dont believe me? look at this.

Oh and, by the way, you know what it takes to have a girlfriend? Forward momentum...it's not about where you are but where you aim to be. Set real, actionable, goals and take the necessary steps to achieve them. Stop sitting around and telling yourself how great you are and actually start doing things, okay? Or else end it. No one here will give a damn either way.

Being intelligent is a form of stupidity. The average person is stupid, therefor you must be able to deal with them.


People do not like
-those who seem smarter than them
-those who look down upon them
-those who cannot relate to them

If you want to succeed, then start acting stupid, get to know stupid people, talk about stupid things with them. You need connections because connections are how you get places, not skills.

Life (in societies) is just a popularity contest.

Fuck trying to get some big social group or win a special girls heart.

I have a handful of small groups I alternate between, which means I don't have to do everything with or tell everything to the same people, I split up different parts of my life and personality up between different small groups. Too damn complicated to try and find some select few that like ALL the things you do, or appreciate EVERY part of who you are.

And women? First, the whole friends first thing is a pain and a waste. For one, never date someone out of any of your circles of friends, it fucks everything up before, after, and during.
--Don't let someone you're interested in fucking get too deeply embedded in any of your social groups. It messes things up when you have to weigh what she wants versus what everyone else wants to do, trying to give her enough attention to keep her happy and so on. Then aside from it looking like you are choosing her over them or them over her everytime you do something, what happens when you get tired of her and dump her? Will they still want her around despite her now being an ex? Will she still try and hang out with them whether you're there or not, her talking shit about you while you're not there and turning them against you or sharing things you'd rather them not know? And of course, what if she gets bored, dumps you and starts fucking one of them, or a friend fucks her and now she's not only cheated on you, its fucked up a friendship and maybe killed the whole group.

When you want a girl around, do like I do.
Find someone that suits your tastes, sit and talk with them or whatever, get them interested, and then do whatever makes you happy- a romantic companion, just a casual friend you get to fuck at the end of the day, or just like me, just do the seduction thing and have something to fuck whenever you feel like. Then go and do what you want with you
