RELATIONSHIPS: helping wizards deplete their mana since 2011

Altra, try growing your hair out. Can you?

Stop flaunting your follicle privilege

woah, much the opposite bud. I normally keep my head shaved because my hair is thinning. I've let it grow a bit more in recent years because most girls like it better..... this is probably why dudes hold on far longer than they should.

[Raist]

It's a fact that most girls-

[Atramental]

So many cute lesbians here.  :'(

Anyways, I went from 53 followers to 70 since starting this charade.

[BlueTsunami]

[Atramental]

You know what's totally pathetic (besides what I am doing)?

Guys who I haven't even matched with are trying to message me on instagram. 

[Atramental]

This Bald Old Fucker GOT THIS CHICK WHEN SHE WAS 15 YEARS OLD!!! AAAAAAHHHH!! 

[seagrams hotsauce]

Not that this wasn't already going too far, but dude, take a second to realize you are now working yourself up into being jealous of child predators. You need Jesus, or LSD.

I’m not jealous. I’m perplexed and shocked.

Where the fuck were her parents? 

[seagrams hotsauce]

15 year old girls do all types of dumb shit dawg

[Atramental]

This girl is alright.

Meanwhile in the boring subplot of Horny cynical Frenchman :
Upgraded to "Agreed to a drink when back in France".

[toku]

you could have spent all this time working on your art

[Atramental]

Filth and degeneracy is my art.

Don't worry. I'm gonna draw some more this afternoon.

This would NEVER happen if I was posing as myself. 

[seagrams hotsauce]

Stop doing this dude. It's creepy as fuck.

[toku]

dude just go masturbate

[Atramental]

Stop doing this dude. It's creepy as fuck.

I'll stop when I'm dead.

dude just go masturbate

I drank a bunch of kava and kratom last night.

I can't get aroused even if I tried.

[seagrams hotsauce]

How are you justifying this to yourself? What benefit does this serve you? I can't imagine what mental hoops you have to jump through to view this as anything but self-destructive

[Atramental]

Seeing how other people operate, who I would never meet under normal circumstances, fascinates me.

[mormapope]

Have you thought about getting some toys of some sort Atra? Is it sex youre craving or intimacy?

Tbh, I think you need a relationship with a gal that has your temperament and sense of humor. Its all based on luck and timing, and it'd probably be worse for you to go on dates that go nowhere rather than you being you and the timing being right.

Sex for sex is a game but finding people you love and care about is a matter of being honest and vulnerable.

Then go to a bar or a trivia night or find a book club or a pick up basketball game. Pretending to be someone else online is not rational, healthy behavior. You'll eventually regret this and feel tremendously embarrassed by it, if you're lucky. If not, you're gonna wind up in a very dark place.

I'm telling you dude, quit while you're ahead.

I don't know what's worse the honesty part or the vulnerable part.

 

[Atramental]

Okay, it's gone.

I'll go back to being a boring sap for now. 

[shosta]

Atra, by spending all this time thinking about how good life is for other hypothetical people, you miss out on opportunities to discover how good you can make life for yourself, robbing you of growth and actualized potential. When you're done with this stint you'll just feel bitter, jealous, and not have anything to actually show for it.

Also it's creepy as fuck.

Edit: thank god

[seagrams hotsauce]

Good move homie. That is not the kind of 'interesting' you want to cultivate, unless you're aspiring to one day be the subject of a wikipedia page TVC will be enamored by. And as Shotsa pointed out, that energy is better spent trying to push the dial forward in constructive ways.

Tinder is a fucking joke.  Hate to break it you, guys.

i went to a wedding last month where the couple met on Tinder.

 

[Atramental]

Was it a redneck wedding per chance?

[nudemacusers]

there are no jokes, only truths.

[toku]

and truth is always shifting

Not many women share my temperament/sense of humor and if they do they’re most likely lesbians. 

And I don’t know what I want half the time. Maybe if I’m being completely honest with myself I want to exist outside the bounds of human experience and live in a sand box world where I can be a god. 

[BlueTsunami]

Now its time to make the most widely used joke Tinder account template; the ideal version of yourself

[Atramental]

That was the duck account.

I think you need a lady to confide in that's goofy and probably somewhat gay or bi. Most women that I vibe with are bi. I know youve said your area is barren when it comes to vibing with women, finding a woman you like talking to, that you wanna talk to, could lead to you or her flying out for some cuddles and banging.

Its not exactly profound advice to seek someone like yourself, but a relationship shouldn't feel like hard work or compromising yourself.

[toku]

yeah you want what everyone wants atra, understanding

[Atramental]

I suppose.

Very few people understand me.

[toku]

I think, if you want to be happy then you have to be brave enough to risk being miserable. Do few people understand you because you don't give them a fair chance to?

It’s probably a mix of me being too stand offish and them being put on edge by my anxious demeanor for there to be a bridge of mutual understanding.

Or if some effort is made to get through to me I’ll usually start talking matter-of-factly about some odd bullshit because small talk bores the fuck out of me but most people can’t handle anything beyond small talk.


Here’s some potential reasons why I may rub people the wrong way:
-I have no love of sports
-I’m becoming increasingly apolitical and generally apathetic
-I’m not religious
-I couldn’t care less if there’s a god or not
-I don’t care for fast cars (or big trucks) except on a purely aesthetic level
-“nerdy stuff” that I might’ve once enjoyed feels so stale and “by the numbers” now.
-I don’t idolize TV shows like some people do
-my music taste can be kinda robotic and not something the “cool kids” would dance the night away to
-I love dark and challenging art
-I crave to alter my consciousness whenever I can because “standard reality” bores & depresses me so much.
-I feel like my age group/generation is going become just as insufferable as baby boomers but for slightly different reasons
-I work constantly but have nothing to show for it except a bitter attitude, a gut, and dark circles underneath my eyes
-I like to joke about things that I shouldn’t joke about 

etc etc etc...

So in my drunk self I talked to one of the girls I like who said she wasn't interested before. Which is fine. But I told her I had been trying to take her out(I started talking to her because she's always checking my snap feed which yes means nothing). And this time she replied with a specific date and time to take her out.

But I think she was drunk too.

And I'm too scared to check up on this.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Seldomlaids and wizards in training overthink this shit all the time.  They think getting a girl is some herculean effort but hundreds of millions, if not billions, of people are going to have sex today.  I guarantee you that virtually none of them have a list as to why they are or aren't getting laid.

Having lost my virginity at 19, one of the toughest things to break was the navel gazing and self stroking I did as to why I wasn't getting any.  Also I do almost no online dating.  I really have a hard time thinking that someone with an active social life has trouble getting anyone.  Spending all your time in front of a screen isn't healthy.

[Atramental]

Self stroking tho

Yolo

[nudemacusers]

Here’s some potential reasons why I may rub people the wrong way:
-I made a distinguished mentally-challenged list

fixed for u. stop overthinking this shit jfc.
also you're not special. 'dark art' and 'robotic music taste' pls.

[Atramental]

 

edit: I’ve said this before but I probably should just leave South Carolina.

I’m not culturally in sync with it and it’s residents anymore.

[nudemacusers]

You could probably even find special interest groups particularly in the things you mentioned.

Hit up an independent/not too commercial bookstore, record store, art supply store, coffee house, pub etc. and there's usually bulletin board full of meetups/events for people with similar interests.

or, as someone who was atheist, listened to merzbow and had suehiro marou art in his house while attending college in small nowhere town, realize nobody cares about that shit when they just want to get their nut. reducing yourself and others to attributes related to media consumption of all things is only going to lead to disappointment, the great thing of meeting new people is the spread and exposure to disparate tastes & experiences.

[nudemacusers]

i mean that list is just a heap of negativity. who wants that.

[BlueTsunami]

One tends to forget what real chemistry feels like, that innate sense of familiarity, when your search for a significant other is boiled down to specific criteria over the internet. This will never, ever tranalate over these series of tubes.

[Atramental]

i mean that list is just a heap of negativity. who wants that.

They don’t. Which is why I try not to bring it up. Which is why I come off as stiff because I’m a cauldron of negativity trying not to boil over.

[Rahxephon91]

Well my problems are that I don't try, am afraid, and just assume it won't go my way.

If I could get past those, things would be butter.

[nudemacusers]

breh the reality is that even if you don't bring up your interests or 4chan misanthropy its obviously preventing you from connecting with other people, even you see that... so maybe just drop it entirely?

1. stop making lists about how you're misunderstood.
2. see 1.
3. go be social with your coworkers and peers in your geographic vicinity. you might actually enjoy yourself.

and for rahx the reality of 99% of social engagements is that people just want to relax and have fun, shit isn't deep or a tribulation. there is nothing to not 'go your way'. it just goes.

But... I have several times and I didn't enjoy myself. 

I don't know what to say at this point, man.

Anyways, I better try and sleep. Maybe I'll be in better mood tomorrow.

[toku]

you're gonna be alright

[Huff]

Just fake enjoying yourself enough times until you forget if your faking it or not

[Rahxephon91]

and for rahx the reality of 99% of social engagements is that people just want to relax and have fun, shit isn't deep or a tribulation. there is nothing to not 'go your way'. it just goes.

And I know that usually. I go out a lot and with the mindset of just going out to have fun. And I do regardless of meeting women or not. Which is porbably why I have felt better about life in geneal, because I have mostly dropped any expectations towards that stuff.

Still, when it does come up and I feel I have a slight chance with any woman, I buckle up. I over think it, assume it's a fools errand, and when it does not happen for any reason I'm disappointed and for a bit get emo and "women don't like me blah blah forever alone" for a bit.

I've gotten a bit better, but I'm not there yet. Either way, my focus is simply on trying to be a cool person right now. Women stuff would be very nice obviously, but I'm not going to worry too much.

[eleuin]

people who go "I'm not like the other girls" get roasted all the time on social media 
nobody is special

guarantee that attitude comes off more than acting cold trying to hide it

[thisismyusername]

I would be such an amazing bi girl. Sheeeeit. 

What makes you think you aren't already? Be the bottom you were born to be.

Also WTF am I reading from you. You're imitating a lesbian (or were) for some godforesaken reason?
