My physical repulsiveness and bankruptcy of charisma have condemned me to a life devoid of sex, romance, and female companionship.
What books will aid me in the spiritual navigation of this awful, inameliorable predicament? What book can help me find meaning in this barren tundra of a life?
My parents made an inquiry regarding marriage because I am a twenty year old male, and I realized, right there and then, that it just wouldnt happen for me.

You're younger than me and have given up on things that aren't foregone for myself. I've got no books but the attitude you're bringing will leave you in the same spot you started.

Anecdotal evidence, but I work with a dude with a bulging gut, flat ass, messed up teeth that cause a speech impediment, and cross eyes due to a dog biting his face as a child.

If that dude can be real, nice, and chill enough for me to go to the bar with him (telling me stories of ex girls!) then you can as well. Feeling like you've been dealt the worst hand will just fuck you up, if you're not a NEET, talk to anyone near you, most people won't mind if you're genuine.

I hear complaints like this online all the time and it's just excuses excuses excuses instead of actually trying to be a good person who doesn't wallow in self-pity.

you can talk to me anon, im you but older, more depraved, more bitter, jaded, and resentful. my family has given up on me long ago, and i got kicked out of the house right after turning 18 because I guess my parents couldn't stand having a constant reminder of them being genetically deformed freaks and a testament to their failure around them,but ofcourse they knew exactly what wad going to happen as my dad is an ugly fat bald manlet who only had money and nothing else and my mother is a gold digging whore, I got the worst genes possible, it was over before it even started.
send me a mail to piston@waifu.club and we can find a way to talk, as I personally find talking with my other 21yo permavirgins quite therapeutic, perhaps it can help you too

Camus's 'Myth of Sisyphus' is pretty good, might finally give you the courage to an hero.
Other than that, try reading something that provides a perspective other than your own, something you don't initially relate to.
Ted Hughes 'Crow' is an excellent collection of poetry, very bleak and abysmal.
Works from playwrights such as Sarah Kane, Caryl Churchill and Tennessee Williams will likely provide a perspective other than your own, that're still easy enough to empathise with.
Shelly's 'Frankenstein' and Morrison's 'The Bluest Eye' are both painfully visceral novels written by women. They might help you sympathise with the opposite sex - but probably not.

Not OP, I tried tinder and it destroyed what little confidence I had left. Spent like £40 on tinder gold as well. Constantly trying to forge some ideal profile like some marketing bugman, matching with a few girls every week, one responds, she ghosts you after two messages, repeat.

You'd think one of you incels would have taken the time to write a book about inceldom.

>> No.14535390

the prague cemetery by umberto eco.
really though any book will help you get a sense of perspective. if you fixate on your perceived lack of possibilities things will fulfill themselves. inceldom shouldn't be something you come to terms with, it's something you transcend when you finally get laid and realise over the next few days that your problems are far worse than a lack of sex. all the things that sex and the lack of it signify will then torment you.
you should also message >>14534016. part of why so many people become incels is their allowing friendships to atrophy without finding new ones.

I'm a little older than you and an only child at that. My mother is a very stupid woman and she doesn't have much going on in her life. Her sister, my aunt, already has 5 grandchildren. I had to move out of the house because I was holding myself from beating the shit out of her. She kept naming my unborn children, asking me if there are going to be any "ladies" whenever I left the house and once even screamed that I'm a loser with no self respect or confidence and that is why I have nobody.
Also, lack of sex and female validation is detrimental and don't let any normalfag here tell you otherwise.

kys normgroid retard, you twofaced shits will always say "sex isnt a big deal sex doesnt matter" yet you cant go a month without having sex, you get suicidally depressed from merely a few months without having sex, and you dont know of any single activity that is more pleasurable and crucial to making your life one worth living. and then you have the audacity to tell people who havent ever felt any affection and intimacy and physical contact from a female in over 2 decades that we dont need sex and that we shouldnt care about it, and then you go drink neurotoxins with your fellow normgroid friends who all since 16-17 never went a year without feeling any love from a female and complain to them that youre on a dry spell and didnt have sex in over 2 weeks

If those dudes try reaaaaaaally hard, and exhibit nothing but positvity, and bury themselves entirely behind a facade of fake niceties while suppressing everything natural about their personalities, and accept the fact that they will spend 99% of their lives miserable while the rest of the world gloats openly about their happiness, then they can have a chance to buy some used up hole dinner so that said hole can then come to 4chan and brag about how good of a person they are for getting plugged by human garbage disposals who are more willing to play their game than the sad incels on here. I really can't fathom why we aren't all sad fat sacks of vaguely nauseating blubber rolling around making shallow marvel references and forcing laughs at womens shitty jokes, its just so enticing

Just earn a fuck load of money. STEM careers that pay six figures. Uggos can’t afford to study humanities - you need to be doing IT and shit.

Use the money to make the absolute most out of your disgusting ass self as possible. Don’t smoke. Have a good diet. Get a female to help buy your wardrobe. Don’t get fat. Buy a nice house. Have interests and volunteer. Be fucking clean at all times. Smell good. Respect yourself, cultivate self control and confidence. If you have your shit together then I guarantee you will find someone and have a relationship.

Maybe for the average normie. Alcohol and partying? People literally do that to escape their reality. The people which come to this site most likely are not the type to obsess over loud clubs and drinking. Why would they find profound appreciation in sex for mere pleasure?

You guys are so in your own heads it’s absurd. Overly analytical. You buy into the Hollywood lies that depend on your insecurity. Stop measuring yourself against a manufactured infographic about people’s hobbies and pleasures. That shit literally does not matter.

Why do you do this to yourselves?

I'm kind of in the same position, so my personal advice would be to focus on a long term goal or passion that brings you pride or joy, and in hard times try to reminiscence about any positive experiences or accomplishments.
