This basically. People keep telling each other looks don't matter, just be confident bro, etc. It's a rude awakening when you realize looks are basically the ONLY thing that matters. Not even height or frame matter, since they presuppose a handsome face. When a girl says she likes tall guys, she isn't thinking of a 6'6 skinny nerd covered in acne. Same when they tell you they like "confidence". They picture a tall, dark, handsome guy being confident, not the leader of the chess club.

I'll give you status. Money is closely interlinked but it's a very beta mating strategy. Provider, not lover.

I didn't suggest this. you wrote "what else should I care about?' and I replied "other people". as in, 'you should care about other people'. from what I've read so far, you don't seem to care about anyone other than yourself. you don't appreciate your family, and you don't appreciate your friends.
> the few remaining friends I have from high school who use me as an unpaid therapist
consider this - your friends see you as someone who they can reliably talk to about difficult personal issues. whether they acknowledge it or not, they value you. here's the kicker - you don't recognize (and won't accept) this because you don't think they have anything worth providing to you. you think this because you see them as being below you. they can't provide you with a sense of value because they are inferior.

start caring about other people, get hobbies, pursue interests, achieve things, eat well and exercise.

that's a lot of "objective" data (not really) but mine and most other people's actual experience contradict it. things like charisma matter quite a lot when it comes to dating and all other social interactions.

plenty of ugly and/or short and/or narrow and/or non-white people do well romantically (and otherwise socially) because they are charming and fun to be around.

it's important to realize that these claims are always made by men with low romantic success who are bitter/jaded by this fact and try to justify their learned helplessness by picking and choosing data to match their preconceived (and flawed) perception of reality. (unscientific)

this is actually a pretty easy question for me to answer.
healthy diet
>any diet that is varied and mostly comprised of whole (i.e. 'single ingredient') foods.
>sufficient (~40g daily) fiber intake, and sufficient vitamin and mineral consumption (see lpi for sensible rda's) as well as adequate omega 3 consumption.
>avoiding (added) sugars and also transfats, and keeping saturated fat and cholesterol at consumption under reasonable thresholds (I won't specify because this is a contentious issue, and they will inevitably vary from person to person. for example, someone with heart disease should aim to eat much less sat fat than someone without) basically 'reasonable thresholds' works out to 'if you eat meat, eat lean meats'.

exercise (I could go real specific, but I'll just outline the fundamentals)
>aerobic exercise ~3-4 times per week
>resistance training ~3 times per week
>maintain an active lifestyle (in other words, avoid spending long stretches of time sedentary, spend time outdoors, etc.)

I'm glad that you're receptive. What I wanted to get across most of all, was that you have family and friends who care about you.

The catch-22 of all the /r9k/ stuff, is that people don't care about you because you don't care about them. Also, women don't 'want' men who 'need' them. To succeed with other people, you need to care about them. To succeed romantically, you need to be alright without without romance.

The irony of this bitter r9k outlook is that if you subscribe to it there's a 100% chance that it's going to detract from your personality in the long run. You're nuking the one aspect of yourself that might've been your top quality because other people in the world have it easier in some ways.

I know r9k probably hear this a lot and it's going to be said to them again and again from people in all walks of life until they finally understand it but you need to learn to love yourself before you'll ever be able to truly love someone else. If you can't get there then you're only wanting another person as a social acquisition and status marker, you don't want a real partnership in any adult sense.

[Anonymous No.10717329]

It's a pretty big logic leap from "men who look good tend to be more successful" to "if you don't look good you cannot be successful no matter how hard you try"

Besides, this mentality in which a person is valued according to his "success" or the opinion others / women have about him is absolute bullshit and also a very american thing

You can be a literal hermit who never has any contact with society and still be an excellent person, you can be despised and hated or ignored by everyone and still be an excellent person

To more directly address the image in the OP, the meaning of "be yourself" is not "be yourself and you'll be successful", it's "be yourself and you'll be happy because you'll stop trying to be successful"

Doubtful.
'ugliness' depends largely on subjective beauty standards. There is, of course, universals basics to our biology (mainly complimentary proportions and overall symmetry) but for the most part it depends on the beauty standard and personal preference. To see present-day differing standards, look at the standard of male beauty for the western world, and the standard of male beauty in South Korea. 100 years ago and further back, the typical person would have a much rougher lifestyle that would make them look old, worn, unhygienic, and probably fairly ugly by all beauty standards of today. Someone who spends 16yrs a day in the open sun, working hard, will not look good (old herders and farmers, doesn't apply so much today except to a small minority in certain countries). Yet someone who lives a purely sedentary lifestyle and eats absolute shit, will not be healthy or good-looking either. Prehistoric peoples would have looked damn-near disgusting to us, as they'd have a life exposed to the elements, with harsh work and no comforts/assistance of the modern world/technology/medicine.

Bill Gates was not a nerd. He was actually a player, and standing 6 ft 2 and coming from a wasp-af family, you can completely understand how he chad-ed his way into hardcore business, which is a cutthroat path.

This guy went to my school and joined a final club (The Fox), and I can tell you right now that if you're not chad, you never made it into a final club.

i will always remember the time i was in manhattan at some music store buying some bullshit that i couldn't find on a torrent, and there was this hot asian chick outside, so i natured checked out her ass and tits, but carefully so she wouldn't notice, and then her man(let) walks up and puts his arm around her and stares into my eyes i guess trying to be intimidating...he was a white guy with giant steroid arms that look like they didn't fit his body, white bodybuilder manlet clinging to his asian gf for dear life probably scared of being cucked anytime she is out of his site, i've basically failed at life, but i still feel embarrassed for that guy, what a sad man

But it is anon, I was a /fit/ fag, stopped excersizing, gained weight, loss my hair. and voila all the women were gone.
My personality did not changed much, neither my wealth or my enviroment (same city, same job same places to hang out) what changed was my body, either intentionally on my own doing or through genetics.
Looks do matter, they really do. If you are like me who was relatively doing okay but later on became a hideous beast you would personally experience that fact.
It is what it is, I'm not bitter after all some things, like my weight, are under my controll. But still even though I'm not bitter now I do understand why old women who lost their beauty became so angry and depressed.

Looks do matter, here's another jillete

so you're one of those losers who was chad in high school and now is a fucking loser, the reason u look like shit is because u have a slothful personality, it's a reflection of who u are and girls can smell "washed up high school jock" or whatever from a mile away

[Anonymous No.10719396]

I was never a chad, I'm below average height. Have bush eyebrows but I was fit, I had a nice full head hair etc. I fared okay, I had girlfriends, I had women who were interested in me. I was a quiet intorvert then and I'm a quiet introvert now again my personality has not changed that much between 23 to 28.
I'm not saying the deal is sealed and balding fat manlets will never get laid. My argument is that looks do matter a lot and you will have a hard time with women if you are ugly/fat/balding/short, more of those look traits you have, less likely the women will be interested in you.

I don't know much about you but If I may assume I think you never had a "downfall" in looks department like I had. Maybe that's why you don't understand it, maybe you are still in your prime 18-19 and therefore can't emphatize.
I do wish that you never have to emphatize at all though, may you be a muscular 6'3 man with full hair even at the age of 90.

When did I said it wasn't my own fault? I admitted some of them were due to my fault, I never state that I won't have a better chance if I loose weight. Hell I'm arguing for looks do matter so I ofcourse would fare better If I lost weight.
But other stuff are genetic, like my short height, which was quite a distadvantage (not you will remain a virgin distadvantage but still) even when I was good looking. Moreover I'm quite bald at a young age which is also detrimental.
>>10719400
>>10719405
>>10719409
Regarding my prime. I can confidently say it was between 18-20. I was even beginning to struggle a little even when I was not fat but as bald as fuck at the age of 24, picture related.
Look maybe you were pimply fat beasts at 18 and you had a great sex life at 25, 26, or 35. I'm sure a 6'2 chad would have more options at 30 when he has more experience, more money etc. Great, good for you. For me my prime was in a different time.

Anyways, looks do matter, and if you personally experienced a decline, whether due to your fault or not, you would agree with me. that was my point. Sorry I made it a personal blog post.

No excuse for losing weight but for these, there is no time for them when you are doing phd in basketweaving, maybe later.

I have a nice face and I still rarely get laid because I'm autismal and can't act like a normal confident guy in social interactions.

Like yeah I'm sure on average a 9/10 tall Chad probably gets laid a lot more than your average chump, but these infographics are always clearly made by incel virgins trying desperately to justify why they can't get laid.

There's a trend, but personality has an enormous impact that is harder to quantify. For example, if those papers had a good joke in them, I'd bet they'd do better than the attractive individuals or at parity.
As an attractive dude with a high body count, the majority of the battle is respect, extraversion, an obsession with eliminating fear, and a ridiculously high work ethic with a desire to learn to match. Those qualities will get you laid way more than being an 8. Income has an impact too. A solid $200k a year will make you way more appealing than an attractive shmuck -easily gotten with a degree in CS and any desire to work. Additionally, optimism has an ENORMOUS impact on life quality and the perspective others have on your life quality. Also, the people that automatically filter by attractiveness rarely make it to enormously high positions of power -people fraught in biases rarely do, and if they do it's because of disfunction and it's instable-, so you have to move around more to find people that believe in you.

how come no one ever talks about any other kinds of dysphoria besides gender? people always tell me i'm hot, good looking, etc. but i just feel like idk maybe like a fat neckbeard i guess

wait, do you think if i went to a pro-tranny shrink they would say i should grow out a shaggy beard and get a fedora? that's what they tell dudes who feel like chicks right? get some fake tits and hormones...but for some reason i don't think this is a good solution, i'd rather just be able to be conscious of myself as good looking rather than grow a potbelly, a big ass beard, and get a bunch of jorts, know what i mean?

Well okay there's data but like what the fuck do you want to do, live in spite and hatred until you die? Life is about transcendance, either religious or artistic or interpersonal, it's about becoming more than you used to be. You can't just say "I lost" and then live the rest of your life out in anger and spite and nothingness. Well, you could, but I'd laugh at you and call you a faggot. Because that's what you are if you do that: you're a faggot.
