the kind of "life experience" hes talking about is overrated. I'm 35 now, I was hyper-social between the ages of like 18-26 or so, I'd go out and drink constantly, every weekend, many times during the week, I dated a lot, made lots of friends, traveled a bit. There comes a point though where it's all just the same shit repeating over and over again. Like going out and getting drunk for the 900th time isn't much better/different than the 70th time, you're not "learning" from those repeat experiences. Same with dating & talking to women, ya there's a learning curve at the very beginning, but approaching the 1000th girl isn't going to teach you anything you didn't know by the time you approached the 50th girl.

Anyway after I reached my mid to late 20s I just kind of got sick of it all, didn't like waking up with a hangover, didn't find much enjoyment or entertainment in going out repeating the same shit with the same people. I became a lot more withdrawn, I stopped answering calls from friends, stopped drinking, stopped going out altogether eventually. Don't think I go out for social activity more than a few times a year now (usually just New Years I get drunk, that's it). Don't care about dating as much either, got out of a 4 year relationship like 6 months ago and haven't even really tried getting back into a new one.

I guess my point is: get a little bit of life experience, but once you've been "social" for a couple years, you've experienced about all you're going to get out of it and after that you won't be missing much.

ah sure, don't get me wrong I'm not saying "dont have friends", but the idea that the social interactions are extremely educational or give you any real "experience" is what I'm disagreeing with.

If you enjoy spending time with your friends because it makes you feel good, by all means do it, that's great. Personally I don't get much enjoyment out of it.

Wagecucking is toppest retardation. I'm now working three days a week, making a bit over 3k/mo and I sometimes wonder why I bother really. I dump like 80% into investments but I mean what's the purpose? Sure you have liars, queers, and unironic retards that say they like working for the socialization, but eating shit from a bowl is a social activity if you get enough people doing it with you. Something being a social activity doesn't necessarily make it a fun activity. I'm thinking about dropping down to two days a week. Thanks to the weirdness where I work its only a couple hundred less each month. Honestly the only reason I'm not a double dayer yet is because manager said I need another year of experience before I'm allowed to apply for the position. There is no reason to work besides money. Any other reason given could be done much better and provide more happiness doing it not as a job.

any advice for anti social fags? I have the same experience as yours, just without the "going out and drink every weekend" part..

It honestly isn't fun at all to go out and drink, it's almost as if god got lazy and said "fuck it" when he was tweaking my extrovert gene before being born.

Can a person force himself to have fun in clubs? Do you naturally feel uplifted when you were out clubbing?

Its something "normies" say to validate their ego, just like NEETS like to shit post on this board about muh wagecuck. In the end the universe has only two rules

1. no particle must ever stop moving
2. There is limit to the speed (relative to every other particle in the universe) with which they can move

Other than that we are all being dealt with by something far larger than we can comprehend and the only advice i can give is to let go. At any point you are but a product of that moment and the simplest (not easiest) thing to do is to let go.

No, it's called becoming lame. I'm 31 and though I don't go out and drink as much anymore, I still hang out with friends all the time, travel with a pack in the summers, etc.. Not everyone has to enter the boomer American dream of mini-malls and SUVs once they hit 27.

People who fuck up get married & have kids too early, and those kids then fuck up and the cycle perpetuates

Successful people have kids in their 30s whose children are then successful

the former reproduces more however which is why the world is bad

Don't fight it. Accept who you are and what you prefer doing. Going out clubbing is totally overrated imo, there's a reason everyone has to get drunk to enjoy it. You can have a social life and probably feel better doing outdoor activities, going into nature etc. and you'll feel good afterwards.

uhm, well when I was out socializing, drinking, clubbing, partying, there were definitely fun moments where I'd feel good, laugh, smile, etc. but I was always a very introverted person and always felt like I was "forcing myself" to go out and be social, like it was a real chore to make the effort.

Like I said, as I got older I just cared less and less about making that effort to where now I barely ever go out with friends. I still keep in touch with some of my best friends, talk online occasionally, meet in person rarely (few times a year). I'm completely happy spending most of my time alone, working on business, or just wasting time online, watching movie/tv, reading books, and occasionally going outside doing a little hiking, kayaking, swimming. I try to maintain a decent lifestyle, I go to the gym regularly, I know how to cook and prepare most of my meals at home, I keep my condo fairly tidy, so it's not like I live in squalor or let my life deterioriate despite not being social.

I guess my advice to you is just be honest with yourself. If you're shy/introverted but you have a real ache or need to go out and be social, if you feel like you're "missing out" and it makes you lonely, then force yourself to go make friends. It doesn't have to be drinking or clubbing, it can just be doing whatever hobby you're interested in, join a club or attend events that relate to your interests, or start going to the gym (made a couple good friends at the gym myself), or whatever else.

On the otherhand if you don't really care about socializing, but you somehow feel obligated, like you're made to feel abnormal because you dont' socialize, then fuck it, just embrace who you are, its okay to be antisocial as long as you aren't miserable or lonely. Personally I never get lonely, not even after months of no human contact, I'm completely content being alone at all times, I smile all the time, my mood is generally neutral/positive, I'm content in solitude.
