Getting a regular office job is the single biggest regret of my life. Any time I have to sit in a meeting or an interview and see how mundane and uninspired I have to be I want to shoot myself in the head. I wanted more out of my life than being this sort of person.

I literally can't stop thinking about mutilating/killing myself, especially at night. And even so i doubt i will do anything, isn't fear the reason why i'am in such a pitiful state in the first place? Why would i suddenly be able to break the spell and actually take action. Maybe suicide by cop is an option for someone like me.

I have almost got a complete outline of the novel i am planning. I have elected to write it out by hand in a writing pad. Has anybody done this and can offer any advice or suggestions?

Also wide-ruled or college?

What do you want me to say exactly? There's just something wrong with me, i don't know why. A part that's missing, or something that went wrong but i can't remember. I'am trapped in my own mind and i simply loathe myself, all aspects, physical, mental on principal. And my timidity and pride prevent me from reaching out to anyone, not like i really have anyone to reach to anyway as i have never had any real friends or anyone i have felt close to. It would be clitche to say that all my problems revole around not gropwing up in a proper family unite, my parents split up when i was 2 or 3 which leads me to suspect i was an unwanted pregnancy, i don't think i even have a single memory of them being together in a room, and my father was clearly not interested in raising a child as we only met on holidays. But again, why does it matter i can't change the past and yet i'am in a prison of it's design. It doesn't matter.

It doesn't really matter. I dislike almost all of it, my features and my body, i'am objectively ugly, a big forehead and bad skin, i'am very short which is one of the things people first notice about me, a small frame and tiny arms, i'am the very opposite of what someone might think of when they picture what a stately, virile man should look like. I'am timid to a point that's sickening, i don't believe i have even in my life made a single difficult decision, i just avoid and hide. I hate hearing the sound of my own voice and how i choose my words, i never seem to be able to properly express what i think and feel so i speak as little as possible. I can't live by any principles i set myself to or follow virtues i know will help me. I'am an obsequious little craven who has never felt the warmth of others because i'am made of cork and i have no fire inside me to warm others, so everyone should stay away.

I relate to almost everything you're saying. The difference between us is the childhood trauma. I was abused by my cousins when I was young and I blame that for my complete failure with women. I also hate myself. I tried hanging myself earlier this year when my parents were on holiday. I know I don't have the balls to hang, so I took a bunch of sleeping pills and waited with the rope around my neck. Blackout and I woke up naked on my bed. It's a shame we can't live but also can't die. What works for me is writing. I get all those bad things that happened and put them in stories. It's a nice way to transform your misery into something beautiful. You should try it because you write really well. I genuinely enjoyed your posts. Best of luck, pal.

i have this weird dichotomy inside of me that's been quietly plagueing me for the past 4 years or so. the dichotomy of carefree unconscious fun autonomous existance vs meaningful slow deliberate thoughtful existance.

on the one hand is laughter and fun saying whatever the fuck i want, on the other is a search for truth and meaning. i can't seem to reconcile these modes of being. the fun path results in more friendship and less worry and more frivolity and excitement i suppose, but the other path leads to knowledge and progress and truth and a sense of "the things i say are meaningful and bigger than me"

in social situations this dichotomy manifests the most, if i'm on fun path i tend to say things that are fun, and i keep the conversation going, and i seem to laugh a lot more, and people are attracted to me, and life is generally better, but on the other path i stay relatively quiet and feel like nothing is really worth saying, that all conversation boils down to the same old shit at the end of the day, that nothing new is being created or no higher 'truth' is not being found so why participate in idle chatter?

if im on the fun path life seems to rush right by, and a part of me is like "wait hold on, let me memorise these events, lets take it slow and savor every word of every conversation, let's not go too quick" but then i lose the spontaneous excitement of life. there's a sense of speed and memory that plays a role in this dichotomy, fun = faster speed, less memories, thoughtful = slower speed, more memories

i think ive been on the slow thoughtful path for too long and i yearn for excitement and laughter and fun

Yep. It a burden to talk about it cause people always see it through pornographic filters and say "wooow I wish that happened with me". I also don't know how to feel. They were teenagers (14 or 15) so I can't really blame them like I'd blame an adult. The only therapist I've been to said I should talk to them about it, but that would be too uncomfortable.

My triple-life plan has officially been launched tonight. I'm living in another city, away from all of my previous friends and I'm building new social circles there. It took some time (about 5 months) but I'm seeing some fruition so I came to leave an update there. I have 3 distinct friend circles in my new city, which are made of about 4 people each. One of those circles is never gonna cross the others, including my old city friend circles as my personality is radically different with them. I'm also keeping that social circle private because I'm flirting with a woman I don't want anyone to meet inside as I'm fucking tired of women destroying my buddies groups.

The end goal is to have different lives I can swap whenever I get bored and, if I can manage to, different women I can meet and spend time with. I will stay celibate to make sure peace is respected in those friend groups. My next move is to solidify my current social circles as much as I can then unlock another flirt. It's funny to write but the hardest part in all of this is to make sure no one in a given isolated social circles is aware of other social circles and keep the secret to my grave. I can't talk to anybody about that plan, or at least not in great details to my normie friends because this will out me as some kind of manipulative bastard. I've only told a single friend who I think is a sociopath and is literally doing the same thing as me in another country right now. Only that guy can understand and since he doesn't give a shit, I know he won't out me plus he always has good advices to keep things under wraps.

I can't give specifics because family may browse this board, but at some point I intend to, hopefully, die. I'll die either way. I'm between the ages of 20-26 with a late stage disease.
I feel like it's a little ironic, how much I wanted to die, and how miserably I failed several suicide attempts, and now death comes waltzing right up to me. As for the disease, it's not going to result in a guaranteed death after a certain amount of time, but it does mean that I will slowly lose function in my organs and my cognitive ability will decline dramatically. I am also going deaf and blind at this moment. Not sure how far these will go, but it's gotten pretty bad. To avoid the worst case scenario- that I am kept on life support for decades as a near vegetable- I am going to escape on my own.
I am grateful for everything that I had in life. I am grateful to all the people that showed me kindness. I am grateful to God that things were not worse than they were. I lived my life horribly and squandered everything that I had been given. I did things that were beyond retarded, and the parties involved showed me mercy.
My political beliefs were held with conviction. I do not recant them even now. I don't hate anyone, and I do feel guilty that, despite as much as I care about many black folks, jews and such, the factual reality prevents me from dying at peace with the political situation. I do not hate anyone, even those that have wronged me.
As for the system, despite the fact that the system itself is evil, I do not hate the people that partake in it. I also don't hate the system because it had wronged me: I have been afforded many undeserved privileges over my lifetime. I hate the system because it is evil, and it enables evil, and it does evil.
I will not be killing myself on a specific day, but I will be getting a DNR order shortly. I plan to, after that, escape and let myself die naturally. I may commit suicide, or I may not. I am done with the suicide games, the attempt, hospitalization, lying, release, attempt, repeat. I want to let go. I can't keep going even though I am open to it because, to use the popular idiom, the walls are closing in on me. I am going to escape a certain worse fate.

I always wanted to do something good and help the world in some way. It is honestly heartbraking to see how much pain there is, how evil this technological society is, and how little is being done. I think may be, supposing God is meddling in affairs so insignificant, Him telling me not to do what I was previously planning to do.
I will keep posting as usual until the day that I escape. Have a good one, anons.

Is it somehow wrong or antisocial to have the view that most people don't know what they're talking about, and whenever they express some serious opinion about the world it is always somehow a projection of their own grievance, ignorance, or somehow duplicitous? A strongly opinionated person is precisely someone who knows the least on a given subject. It is a compensation. To me, these opinionated people are not to be trusted. How little any of us actually knows about the world. How far it is that what any of us REALLY have is an objective, dispassionate, yet somehow fervent opinion of the world. There is always a personal motivation. An opinion, especially a political one, is always a form of vengeance, of putting a certain group of people "in their place", as a correction for some deeply held grievance. This is why the opinionated person must always force his view on others: the raison d'etre of the opinion is to change the perception of reality or of himself in the eyes of others, not to evaluate. A man who is opinionated but silent is redundant.

I'm reminded of being at a bar with a young man who was hell-bent on turning the conversation toward the fact that all women are whores. He clearly had no methodology for his conclusions, but he was only expressing whatever in that moment made him feel vindicated in his scorn for women. He would have loudly agreed with any comment made about women in that moment so long as it was negative. Clearly, if he could convince himself and others that all women are indeed whores, then he is innocent of his own failures that led him to that sad position.

The opinionated person is always confessing something about himself. Narcissists are very telling in this regard. The narcissist is someone who is always ill-at-ease, and whom seeks to compensate his feelings of inadequacy by aggressively asserting some form of trashing others. In this way, all harshly negative opinions are narcissistic because they seek selfish ends: to level the playing field and reassert a dominant or "knowing" position which conveniently always privileges the person speaking.

All beliefs are held because there is a reason to. If there is no reason to believe something, it would be useless to believe it.
Don't even try mentioning useless or trivial facts which are "believed" because there is evidence: the reason for believing those is conformity, its use in predictive power, or else it is not believed, only "accepted" because it is convenient to do so.

I am so god damn pissed and I hate myself and my life so much. I just met a girl a few weeks ago and fell madly in love with her, but not only do I probably have no chance with her but I just found out that for many years she had been all alone and gone through horrible circumstances that she couldn't talk about. And her age combined with the number of years she said she was having such a hard time means her rough times have been going back to when she was a young teenager.
Spending time with her has been the first thing that I've had in my entire life that made me feel truly happy without a tinge of sadness, and I was already wishing that I could have just met her sooner and that I could help her out as much as I can, but now I find out she went through all this and I'm just so damn mad at the world and myself for not having somehow found a way to stop it.
I hate everything that hurt her and everything that kept me away from her and everything that's wrong with me that's keeping me from being able to do anything meaningful for her.
She is so much better than me at everything, she is so articulate, so friendly, so sweet, incredibly funny, adorable, her singing is beautiful and she is getting high marks in university on top of all of it, but she was crying saying she had a hard life and was alone for many years and the things she did before weren't working out.
She is so nice to me but there's almost nothing I can do for her right now, and I want to change the past to make her not hurt anymore.
I hate my stupid schizo brain that makes it so difficult for me to figure out what I have to do to get my life together, I hate my stupid body with its lung problems and sleep issues and aches and bad metabolism, and I want to rip my throat out because I hate my disgusting voice. Why the fuck do I have to be so shitty that I care so much but I can't do a god damn thing to help her?

For what purpose are you going to go to graduate school? For a professional Masters by Coursework? Do you enjoy doing the same 5 things over and over again until you commit suicide or they change the standards of practice and you feel outdated?

For a research masters? Because you didn't do a real honours degree because you're Bologna or Seppo or Pommie?

For a doctorate? Do you know what your original contribution to scholarly knowledge is? Do you know that your discipline will break you in two as you discover its deep innermost secrets of pathetic methodological failure? Or that if you don't have this crack frenzied apotheosis that you failed and that your Muse ghosted you?

Depends what country, what field, what your goals are

The only advice that really isn't context dependent is to talk to as many grad students and professors as possible and ask THEIR advice. I would worry less about some of the things the other anon mentioned, like your scholarly contribution, since scholarship is mostly dead and terrible now. I mean, care about that stuff if you want, but know what the stakes are before you wade in. Definitely don't expect grad school to be some life of the mind shit. Maybe it will be for you, maybe you have one of the few remaining fields where people are still cool and things are small enough that it isn't 70% taken over by racial grievance studies. But maybe not. That's where you have to do your due diligence and figure it out.

Once you know what you want and what the odds of getting it are, you can decide. For example if you know you could get a free ride at Princeton and have literally 6 years to finish a book project you intended to finish anyway, and scraping to meet the other statistical anomaly autistic people you want to be friends with, and you don't mind then being a 30+ year old English PhD applying for $60k/yr jobs at libraries, and you don't mind that most of your peers on the way there are likely to be very rich very "gay acting" people and hypersocial office women or that all of them will be studying colonialism and transgender Shakespeare, then maybe it's good for you. It's just not one size fits all.

I would demystify it first and foremost. Unfortunately this is something that can't be done until you're on the other side. One thing I recommend contemplating is that when you're 35, if you're a decent honest person anyway, nothing really matters anymore except having money to live and a lifestyle you identify with. At 21 it's easy to think having a PhD is objectively important or objectively meaningful but just like how you don't think of your SATs after you graduate your BA, you probably won't think of your PhD once you're just some guy with a PhD. But there is another kind of person who really really identifies with having a PhD. You can find them on Twitter, telling you and everyone that they have a PhD. Those are usually the gay acting and hypersocial women types.

I came home after an awful day at work and practically passed out because I was so tired but I went on to have some insane and vivid dreams lol. It feels like I never went in, now. I'm looking forward to doing some reading tonight instead of just going to sleep and going back in tomorrow.

In fact, depending on how tomorrow morning goes, I might donate some more books to charity because once they're out of sight then they're out of mind.

The only downside is that I've volunteered in a charity shop before and I've seen how books are treated there. They're thrown out if they don't sell within a time frame and, from what I remember, the older women were our best customers and they mostly bought erotic fiction lol. Good times.

This shit has propaganda written all over it. I can't believe anyone actually cares about this fake story.
The defense secretary even admitted that they have no proof that any of these balloons are surveilling. Which is laughable to me. If they didn't know what it was, why do they keep saying otherwise, and why shoot it down at all? And why does all of the U.S media parrot what the pentagon is saying if they don't know for certain? For the sake of putting on a performance. Some retarded cold war tier propaganda war is going on. I'm sure the military knows full well what it really is, or has the technology to tell, but doesn't want to show us because they know it isn't anything.
The media picked up on and hyped the original balloon story feeding into people's paranoia. Absent any of this hype it would have never have been a story. It becoming a story forced a performative response, or alternatively the government saw the media hyping it as an opportunity to run with their own story about China bad.
In a week or so this story will disappear and they will never come forward showing the public real evidence .

Women are not as "strong and capable as men", but nor are they useless animals. They are just their own thing in their own nature, like an anti-matter. The moment you start examining women for what they are, and the rules they play by, you will start approaching the truth.
Imagine you were transported into a different universe where everything fundamental and habitual no longer applies. Gravity doesn't make things fall down, light doesn't shit, 2 + 2 doesn't equal 4... That is so full of intrigue, so why discard it?

The danger for you after turning 30 is how little you will start to care about all the things that gave you anxiety in your 20's.
Lots of shit that society tries to sell you is only particularly cool when you are in your late teens and 20's and you have that overwhelming aspirational anxiety that makes you crave symbols of success.
A 24 yr old with a cool car is cool person. A 34 yr old with a cool car is a 34 year old with a cool car. Its the same for women. Everything.

If you want to achieve something in your 30's but haven't already your biggest threat is going to be the creeping disinterest in "success" as an object of desire at all.

Music is special compared to literature because of its proximity to emotion. How much easier it is for people of any age to manipulate it to be emotionally compelling. I can appreciate young musicians much easier than I can appreciate young authors, is my point.
You just can't be a great author until at minimum 30. Only a fledgling talent. At least all of the great authors I can think of off the top of my head were older than that when they wrote their best stuff. I picked 30 because Melville wrote MD at 32, and I rounded down. Literature is more unwieldy, and you need a lot of time to master the art, and mature.
Great songs can be written in 5 minutes on a tour bus. I've seen how the Beatles wrote their songs. Also the countless classical musical prodigies. Never heard of a 5 year old literature prodigy. Just something I was thinking of, doesn't really mean anything one way or another. Something to do with the inaccessibility of language.

You know, I’m sure I’m more successful than a lot of people and maybe even most my age, but I just can’t be happy with that if I’m not the right kind of successful. I have very specific things I wish I did, but because I didn’t, I’m just not happy.

Music has a low entry bar and therefore lower standards compared to literature, which is only natural considering how much time and effort is requires to get through a regular novel, let alone a classic. You can get by in music through sheer cleverness and attitude. I'm not sure you could do that through literature. This is in no way knocking music as "an inferior" medium, it's just the nature of the average experience, but the reaches are always limitless when it comes to art, no matter how its packaged. And the further the reach, the more justified the merit. It doesn't help what we know as music has changed so dramatically over the previous century, whereas a novel can be three centuries old and still be less shocking to a youngster than if you were to make them sit through an entire symphony. How little can the layman grasp from classical music these days? I am a layman, and I admit that I struggle more often than usual.

My body is going to decay, and I will not have done anything of value. Maybe there is no value. I feel like an animal trapped in a cage, screaming and screaming. Inarticulate, impotent, a harm to anyone who comes near me. It doesn't help to be in love today. We've all loved our dog or cat or family or something, real love is not different from that after a couple years. It's not a drug anymore and this huge, gaping hole comes back. Things are just wretched through and through. I wrong the people around me. I drain the people around me. I have no escape. I'm not stupid enough to think I'll really kill myself anymore. I won't do it. So I'm just trapped, screaming and thrashing around and waiting for it to be over, like everybody else. I can't fucking keep a handle on it. I hate myself so much. I feel so vicious.

I really regret taking a staff job at a university. My first job after college was in private but that didn’t work out so I took a job here on the staff. I’m in my 5th year here now and it’s a comfortable job but I don’t see any long-term future for myself in this sort of job, and now I’m without a graduate degree, any transferable experience, and any obvious direction to move in that I wouldn’t have been better off moving in 5 years ago.

Truly I am Feeling That Feel When No GF.

I walked through a mall, windowshopping, picking out what outfits I'd buy my gf if I had one.

I'd have liked to have someone to give flowers to today, someone smaller and cuter than me who enjoys it when I kiss her on the top of her head. Someone I could pick up after work, someone I could hold tight at night. Whisper things to each other we will forget after this brief moment of hypnagogia

There is one girl I know and we're friends at best and drinking buddies at worst. There's another one in my Tinder-matches (six in total, four never responded) whose answer I'm waiting on just so we pretend to have a slightly better understanding of one another, good enough to meet inperson. Inperson where I can actually attempt to put on a show and try to woo her.

I feel lost. There's been a time in which all I wanted was to have friends; I got that. Then I wanted to have sex and have a girlfriend I would love; I got that. Then I wanted to go abroad to study; here I am. Now despite my best efforts I am not what I hoped I would become. I am not a genius, /lit/. No amount of work is going to change that. I'm never going to make a dent on the great veil.

I want to describe it all to you, so you can be here with me, for just a minute. I want you to feel the soft, warm skin around my thighs. To feel the frilly white panties that have a slight tear on the back, the smell of my perfume and my hair. I want you to feel my hands in yours – delicate and small. The sensation of your fingers on my lips, I want you to feel my heat and warmth. I want you to be there with me, to feel my neck. To look into my eyes, which are a little tired and puffy. To hear my voice, to whisper to you about something you love. To find out what that is, and explore you as you explore me. To have our feet touch under a blanket, to look out at the stars. To take us both away from all this stressful life, for just a minute. Me and you.

can you believe belle delphine wrote this. i'm not saying it's incredible (or even good) prose or anything, but that she thought to write it, and like this. and to even be so romantically-minded considering everything.
it's all really quixotic isn't it?

I used to think kids books are shit, especially modern ones. Read the ending of holes (cause our family loves referencing it) and man, that was a great read. He had to explain some things (like the time he mentioned how Zero brought the shovel from camp), but otherwise it was still a fun adventure. Now I hold a higher respect for the craft of writing kids book, although the quality that made Holes good is likely lost on modern books.

ATTENTION: I HATE WOMEN

Now that that is out of the way, this is a reminder to all incels with gfs to get your gf a valentine's gay gift. Remember, women are retards, just because it's "illogical" and a meaningless fake holiday doesn't mean they won't like it and appreciate it. They FEEL the need for a valentine's card more than they THINK that it's retarded, the opposite of a man.

You can easily make a personalized card using mspaint, just resize the page to 850 x 1100 pixels (turn off maintain ratio), then go to file>print settings>portrait mode, then divide the picture into quadrants with a thin line (delete it later by filling it with white), then put the front of the card in the bottom right quadrant and put the two inside panels of the card in the top two quadrants (put left where you want right to be and vice versa, then flip them horizontally and vertically when you're done making them), then print it out and fold it into a card and maybe sign it. I probably fucked something up here so if it turns out weird you have to fix it.

Try to also remember something frivolous your idiot gf likes and go buy it for her, especially if it's chocolates or flowers. I asked me mum and she said the chocolates/flowers are important and not really optional, wouldn't explain why. This is also why you should be keeping mental notes of little dumbass things your gf says she likes or wants in passing. If you remember from three months ago that she said she wanted a specific orange colored yarn and you get that for her you win big points. But be careful getting things she can't use, stay away from cosmetics DO NOT GET HER STRETCH MARK CREAM I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH

Also reminder to tell your dear old mum you care about her. Try remembering something nice about her and showing that you see her as a person and a woman and not just as your mum.

Gold-digging was just about the only way women could secure a livelihood and a place to live, since property only passed to male heirs. In the novel initially the only way she would've been able to stay after her father's death would be to marry the new heir, Mr. Collins who is extremely unattractive.
P&P is clearly a self-insert fantasy, with Elizabeth being Austen, and her family just like the Bennets were members of the declining gentry. According to wikipedia their family's economic prospects were not all that great, with an income about equivalent today of $27,000
>Reverend Austen had an annual income of £200 (equivalent to £27,000 in 2021) from his two livings.[33] This was a very modest income at the time; by comparison, a skilled worker like a blacksmith or a carpenter could make about £100 annually while the typical annual income of a gentry family was between £1,000 and £5,000

It was a big one, too, and I felt a searing pain that raced through the nerves around my anus in the immediate aftermath. It's gone down to a dull ache, but I can still feel the soreness.

I was probably right to take such drastic actions against it. It hasn't exactly impeded daily life but I've felt it down there for years and I'm glad to finally be rid of it, even at the cost of some temporary pain.

Hunger is the end of ideology.

People who prioritize an abstraction, an ideal, above hunger are exceptions, not the norm.

You can't eat ideals.

The impotence of all political projects that seek to overthrow the current system is the belief that the 'masses' value something more than keeping hunger at arms length.

Ideologues believe that people have been interfered with, bamboozled, by some malevolent outside force that makes them value hunger above the abstract nuclei of the ideology, yet take away all the regime's propaganda but keep the regular meals and nothing will change.

You can convince people of many things, but you don't need to convince people that they are hungry.

Very few people are concerned with what they ate yesterday or what they will eat tomorrow.

Like cats or dogs at the food bowl people they will not be disturbed while eating.

Promises of the return to cornucopian golden ages lost to the past, or blisteringly optimistic forecasts of unleashed abundance are meaningless when the food is already on the table.

Promises of social orders that will orient man toward the true north of existence are meaningless when the food is already on the table.

There is no collective belonging when the food is already on the table.

No hunt, no group.

Belonging and the Other haunt the skies on radio frequency. There is a swirling, ghostly procession of vestigial impulses without foothold, constantly seeking purchase and finding nothing. Play fighting, roughhousing across nations, just in case the food goes away.

The food hasn't gone away, yet.

Is there any point in talking to a doctor about having your dick fondled by an uncle as a kid and in your teens? It's something that's always bothered me. It was always done as a "joke" in front of everyone so I guess none of the other adults knew how to react or just took it as "him being him" trying to be funny. But honestly it was very humiliatibg. The fact we used to all cover our crotches when he came along should have indicated to everyone that this shit wasnt right but there we were us boys just covering our crotches and giggling like faggots not really knowing what to do

Funny though that when you bring it up, youre the one that gets cut out from the family lol.

I'm a weak man. I'm not sure I am a weak man but I think once you self-identify one it's very hard to shake off. No idea what to do. Work out maybe, get some testosterone going. I hate working out though, I hate the idea of slaving over and over again just to become good looking, and besides the moment you lay off it for a week it's all gone either way. It's ridiculous. Maybe if you do it only for the psychology of it though. I don't really have any other ideas. I was raised by a teenage girl. She's alright, but I missed a lot of stuff growing up.

This clip?..... shit. The whole thing about the "game" was to not get molested. I remember one time we were ragging on my brother and laughing at him be used he was there letting him self get molested while making "ohhhhh/errrrr" sounds like he's annoyed or bothered but then not doing anything to squirm out of it or cover his dick.

But thing is we all knew it was fucked up but we were laughing at each other over it but at the same time we couldnt do anything. Like what if someone just straight said fuck off over it. They would be scolded for "disrespecting your elders" just like I was for simply telling him off as an adult to talk his boastful rubbish outside of my dying grandmother's room

And there I was being told off for disrespecting my elders and being told I shouldn't talk to him like that tin front of company or others. But it was fine to humiliate all of us throughout childhood with that dick fondling shit. Fuck off

You've got to make working out habitual so tha ttoyntheb feel weird not doing that little somehting.

Try this for a month. It's what got me started and builds you up to it so it's not too daunting plus has rest days. Doesn't even need to be done in 1 set. If the day asks you to do 10 pushups, you can even do 3 in the morning, 3 after work then 4 before bed. Or do it as 3,3,4 in the one session.

By the time you are doing 50 you probably feel weird not doing 50 pushups the next workout day. Then after that to just added to it

I'm a hairdresser. Predominantly for women. Pretty good and successful at it too

My partner still seems ashamed or a little bit embarrassed about my profession because she always has to add other things to the end when I say when I do. Or someone asks her when I do. Eg if I tell someone I'm a hairdresser she will needlessly add something like "can you believe it he went from XYZ masculine profession to this?" Or she points out how lucky I used to be a mechanic because I fix her car.

Just small things like that. Then behind closed doors she constantly wants me to play with her hair and do it all up for no reason and seems to love that I'm a hairdresser. Just not I fornt of other people

No, pretty girls have called me handsome, that's kind of my strongest capital on the dating market.
>tldr: I have an obsessive fear of showing nervousness, which ultimately makes me batshit nervous - a self-fulfilling prophecy
I've always been shy as far back as I recall. I remember my parents, especially my dad, mocking me for being shy and he always tried to force me to walk into social situations, perform in front of people and so on. The more I hated some social event, the more he forced me to go into it. I understand what he wanted to do, but the delivery was bad. It was based on negative motivation rather than positive, and he just kept mocking me for wanting to quit these situations, till this day he sometimes reminds me of one embarrassing occasion where I cried in front of a crowd at like 12yo.
Anyway, I kind of developed this phobia of (social) fear and its psychosomatic effects. It's half phobia, half obsessive, where I just panic days prior to a social occasion and sleep bad, feel nauseous and all that stuff. These effects, and the fact that in that state I'm fucking boring and embarrass myself with nervous reactions, are what I fear. I can't help it, I just panic with people and want to escape the situation. That's a strong feeling - just wanting to miraculously be alone suddenly.
Strangely enough, the fear is sort of stronger with people I know, afaik usual social fears get stronger with people you don't know, but I just don't want to seem nervous in front of my loved ones.. or also a potential gf.

only people who really know you can make a real valuation of you. only someone you let in, let get really close, can reject you in a way that really hurts. you've got some kind of negative myth about your being that's likely a result of your parents being mega faggots that you are terrified of having confirmed by another person. you have to go to the source and confront that both internally by figuring it out and combating it and externally by slowly building up positive experiences with other people

The biggest argument against it is ecology. If we don't use the domesticated animals they die, there's less biodiversity and we lose power over the world. Methods to harvest energy and resources that may not be available in any other form disappear forever. Where I am animals graze on land that's too rough for farming.
Vegans hate animals or they wouldn't want to remove them from the world.

Gives me hope++ for the upcoming years. >your dad is shit Tbf he probably sincerely thought this was the right thing to do for my good.
