Re: Advice From A Sexually Experienced Man (AKA I Envy My Roommate)

Goddammit.

Yes, I can guarantee number four on that list will never happen, not to you and not to anyone, because life isn't a shoujo anime. Hate to break it to you man.

This narrative could just as well be forged about you:
>you'll never finally pin him down after he tries to pretend he isn't noticing you while he constantly throws glances from across the room
>that puffed-up swagger that's so adorable will never be done in front of you
>he'll never try start a thread on the internet asking for advice on what you see in him
>you'll never prick through all his self-flagellation to tell him the myriad of reasons why you like him
>you'll never comfort him once he hits a low
>you'll never be there to see how he shoots his films and realize how passionate he is about his hobby
>you'll never hear him confess how much he actually hates the whole alpha male gig
>you'll never guide him through his first steps in bed while he listens and adapts to what you want from him
>you'll never be by his side while he overcomes his problems and whispers in your ear that you're his rock

In short, don't hang out with arcanines(not in the least because they're shite in the metagame).

Funny thing is, I don't even watch anime. I might as well start, since my social life has gradually vanished to the point where I'm basically an otaku without the anime and the body pillow.

I remain in contact with a single person in any kind of social context at this date in time. Things are not looking good.

God, this freaked me out a lot more than I wanted to admit. One, because none of that except for the "passion" shit is even remotely attractive. Two, because imagining a woman who is genuinely attracted to me is like imagining a unicorn or God.

I dunno dude, I know you wrote that just to spite me, but that really did hurt to read. I felt nausea reading that.

I know Arcanine is a Pokemon, but that's as far as I understood that reference. Something something EV training.

You've had socially isolated periods before and gotten yourself out of them, and your skills are better now. It's a shitty situation to be in, and I'm sorry you're going through that, but don't go leaping into despair.

I don't totally get everything BasedBuzzed was saying, but I don't think he was saying it to hurt you. At least some of the things he was listing sound like pretty common romantic fantasies; the guy who plays hard-to-get but it's really because he's so into her that he's shy about it, being the one special person that he's willing to be vulnerable with. These kinds of tropes are often played out in pretty unhealthy ways in fictional romances (as are so many tropes aimed at all genders), but just because you don't think there's anything attractive there doesn't mean there aren't people who would find it so.

Arcanine is a reference to /rk9/, the typical board where such feels stuff is posted. It's also a pretty toxic community that might know the feelings you're going through well, but will also try to spoonfeed you a handy helping of beaches and shores and 3DPD to go along with it.

This is not to mock you, and done with self-descriptions you've made at various points. You say they're unattractive qualities but there are dudettes out there who think of them as attractive. Some bad dudettes like fixer-uppers, but also dudettes who will see you as more authentic when they see your vulnerable side and how you write about it, perhaps because it might resonate with some of their own hang-ups. You will always be attractive, sympathetic or brave to some folks.

Looking on the bright side, I don't go on 4chan. I found that on Reddit.

Collective response to my writings on here has universally been disgust at worst and exasperation at best, so let's not give me that much credit.

If I ever meet one of those unicorns, I'll be sure to tell you. There hasn't been a single one so far that hasn't been completely manipulative.

With my banishment from my own fucking incel forums, combined with my lack of any actual progress in obtaining full manhood status, I'm thinking of either going to /r9k/ myself or starting another incel board. All the self-loathing you can eat, now with 90% less Red Pills!

Sign me up for a lifetime subscription, I'm gonna be needing it.

I've been reading through your threads for a while, but I never could think of any real good advice to give.
Then I noticed the post where you (presumably) joked about starting to watch anime.
To be serious, I think you should check out Welcome to the N.H.K.

While it's more effective with otaku, I showed the series to an Internet friend last year and it (along the ecchi comedy, Golden Boy for some reason) helped him feel better. Shoot, the series even woke me up when I wstched in 2012!
I'm not sure if there are other anime about social anxieties and such (sans Watamote, is more offensive than humorous), but Welcome to the N.H.K is really an insightful series.

Afraid I can't offer much else since I've never been in any relationships or had problems with girls before :/

Goddammit.

Fuck it. I have my guitar, my artwork, my films and my dogs.

Yuck, when I first encountered /r9k/ it was filled to the brim with pretensious assholes.
