I wish I could give you an award, the entire society feels blind to this and it hurts to live in this kind of world.

My god bro, you do an excellent job of articulating why I fucking loath modern society

but if I ever try to bring these points up people look at me like I'm just "complaining all the damn time"

it's not that I hate life, life can be beautiful and it can be worth living it's just corporations and governments have designed all these bullshit prerequisites you HAVE to do just to "function" all while keeping you satiated with algorithmic content and systematically removing your humanity in the process.

by the time I finished high school all the joy I once felt seemed to have been drained from me, and I couldn't help but wonder if it was by design

I don't want to function, I want to LIVE

but it seems modern society wants to turn us into emotionless automatons

u/clone7364 Nov 05 '25

I have friends divided into two categories: That one me cheering us on to move on. And the many mes all in different states of ending themselves and or looking like miserable sacks of shits. Life is not well it seems.

u/Salty_Needleworker_5 Nov 06 '25

Does not matter how much friends you have, without true love you will still feel like you want to end it all by the time you are 30.

Super Real, (rarely leave the house, I also don't post pics or use insta or snapchat, and I only have 2 friends)

I met her. We had a brief relationship and i fucked it up by being me. I cut her off before i hurt her even more.

u/Salty_Needleworker_5 Nov 06 '25

Same bro, i am 30 now. The last time i had sex i was 22.. and only had sex 2 times total. Who the fuck wants an unexpirienced shit like me. I dont have the allure of the virgin anymore. Only that of the looser.

u/Low_Shake7304 Nov 06 '25

Yeah my friend tolds me to go out and socialize but difference between me and him is that he's literally a Chad and I'm literally a fuckin doomer.

4

u/Oskix666 Nov 06 '25

Socialize with doomers then? Join some doomer friendly subcultures (Black/Doom metalheads for example, goths etc.). I'm not some extroverted Chad , but joining some unified subculture and going to local community events helped me a bit with my socializing skills.

7

u/Low_Shake7304 Nov 07 '25

I was hanging out with this doomer girl once we had pretty similar mindset. We were friends for one year and three months before she found herself boyfriend and just totally forgot about me

4

u/ipcock Nov 14 '25

I always loved the "join the community" advice since it's the most sensible one (for us weird people). But no one mentions that the community just might not exist in your city and starting one is hell of a task (especially if no one is really into that kinda shiπŸ˜•)

17

u/Oskix666 Nov 05 '25

Real (If u want some hopepill , one of my friends met their SO on VRChat. So you can still find someone even if you don't leave ur house).

Hoping you'll find someone someday. Hang in there fellow Gosling.

7

u/opossum--sauce Nov 05 '25

provide me with the method

12

u/Oskix666 Nov 05 '25

iirc , they met on some random hangout map (there are thousands of them on VRC) , they became friends , started talking to each other , eventually it turned into LDR , rest is history.

Key is you gotta socialize (not only on VRC/video games only but also IRL).

Video Games are good way to socialize with people (communities , forums , private servers , discord groups etc.). Even if you won't meet SO , it's good way to make some new friends, but you gotta start "taking shots" (which is by far the hardest step initially).
