Am I... old?

Am I... old?

Due to a breakup I'm currently in a shitty point of my life, and as I'm looking forward to improve myself and strive for a better version of myself... I also realize I'm 30 years old. My body, no matter what, is in decline now, isn't it?

Any other anons already experienced it? How have you dealt with it?

Is it really going to get worse from now on?

Men don't start declining until like 35 and even then it's slow

you won't feel decline until you're in your 40s. you still have 7-10 good years

>My body, no matter what, is in decline now, isn't it?
if you let it be, sure

Your body really starts declining at 50 or so lol. Even some 60 year old slook like fucking gods now.

Welcome to life...

I was at my strongest at 35, back injury at 36, few years of light work, 46 and I'm back on track stronger and fitter than I have ever been.

It's all about those genes, but one day we'll all start to fade away.

>tfw watching my dad get old

I'm 42 and life is grand, it's all what you make it

>tfw watching Arnold get old.

Life ends at 20, so yes you oldcel cuck

Don't be a fag. Prime Batman is like 35.
You will only be in decline if you have a shitty lifestyle. If you are smart you can be better now than you ever have been.
You only automatically start going into reverse at like 40 due to DNA damage and shit.
And remember, chicks naturally dig older men with their shit together who are still virile and winning at life. They also dig degeneracy so don't let them be your guiding influence, obviously, but since you've had a breakup, don't feel like you are over the hill. Unless you are literally gay, in which case, Like a woman, you are over the hill soon.

Aint that the fucking truth

I'm 31, best shape of my life. I was strong fat about a year ago, emphasis on the strong, I suffered a pretty bad injury falling almost 2 story's landing on an scba tank on my back, got a little faster laying around recovering and one day I looked in there mirror and just had enough, I've always been strong and worked out but permabulked my first 30 years on this planet, I did a couple month suicide cut and looked pretty good, went to maintenance for a couple months got stronger, and I'm cutting hard again now, for the first time in my life I have visible abs, is not too late user you can make it, if my fat ass made it you can to

do roids

Should have said emphasis on the fat sorry. When I finish this cut I will post pics for insulation, from fat ass balls to a decently cut thicc mode so late in life I'm pretty proud

Fuck this phone, inspiration not insulation, my pics are not gonna keep your house warm

>26
>Quit smoking, drinking and doing drugs over year ago
>Look younger than in my early 20s

...

To put this in perspective: Oxygen is killing us. As we breathe to live, so does the oxygen react with our cell and ages them. Since the day you started breathing, you were already in decline. And you've built despite that. Your decline can be offset, but it will only become harder the longer you wait.

So build now and be strong.

offtopic, but I was cleaning up my Veeky Forums folder and your post reminded me of this one

Sorry I'm half retarded on a normal day and tired as fuck just got off a 24 hour shift. My autistic ramblings add nothing to the thread, and my phone posting typos only make it worse

i'm 29 and recently quit smoking and drinking along with drug use. i feel better than i have in my entire life.

It's alright, my boy

Also 26. All my friends are starting to look like shit, haggard, deep wrinkles and lines forming. In 10 years these guys are gonna look more like 50 than 35.

I'm the only one that works out, takes care of himself, doesn't abuse alcohol or cigs and eats well and I'm still pretty fresh faced.

I, for one, found your posts quite insulational.

top kek

Glad I could keep you warm and energy efficient

I always wanted to be successful and ripped in my mud 30's

homer looks cute here

This, it's only quick if you have a shitty diet.

Eat right and exercise, it's the best thing you can do for yourself.

>28
>had a 7 year long relationship with my college sweetheart end last year

If I can do all of this, nothing's stopping you.

The problem isn't that I'm old or not completely in shape (but I'm going to be, though).

Even if I did pass my peak, I'd accept it and keep on going. This thread was just the moment it first hit me. The replies helped me think otherwise, and I'm glad for that.

The real battle I'm facing, is losing her. I thought she was the one for the rest of my life. I still do. But... she's gone now.
I'm sure I'll bounce back eventually, but I just know I'll be lesser for it. I've had plenty of girlfriends in my life, but she was irreplaceably perfect.

It fucking hurts, man.

It's hard to believe I'll ever be as happy as I was the past four years.

If you think you're old: you're old.

But, yes, you are old.

Yeah I let myself be a worthless grieving slob for a few months thinking my love life was over and I'd never find someone better.

The sooner you knock that off and start back on the path to dating, the better you'll feel. Also take the opportunity to do the things you couldn't do as much single with a girl nagging you to be home or whatever.

Sounding blue pilled as fuck user.

You nested, you allowed yourself to have feels for a woman. You had oneitis. Remember what the ancients knew and has only recently been forgotten thanks to nu-male cucks and feminism: All women are bitches/sluts, they aren't loyal, their sexuality must be repressed by patriarchy for the sake of civilisation itself or we degenerate into 80/20 hypergamous hareems with vast armies of spurned betas, declining birth rates, single mothers, crime, and influxes of aggressive rapefugees to fill the masculine vaccumm. Since women aren't in check, treat them as the sexual revolution demands - pump & dump sluts. Keep your feels separate from the bitches you fuck. And bag that shit to avoid AIDS.

Question - be brutally honest with yourself. How many girls would you need to fuck to forget her forever. If you fucked one genuine 10 with a good personality, you wouldn't give a fucking shit about this so-called 'special' girl.

Everything you've said shows you aren't Chad. Not in shape, worried about being old and past it at 30 (lol!!!) You SHOULD be more valuable to women, and more sexy now than you were 5 years ago. And if not, stop doing the dumb shit that has wasted that potential for personal growth. Look after your body, your career, your appearance. A silver fox can do better than a 20 year old dude if you know how to game women and use your years wisely.

30 is not too late to wise-up. Just don't waste the next 30 years. And don't make a woman the center of your life, ever. Men are naturally inclined to have self sacrificial instincts, but the game has changed. Sacrificing for your own kids and grand kids makes sense, but some bitch? Fuck her. Move on bro. Go on holiday to Amsterdam, bang some hookers, get your shit in shape. You'll be fine!

You got to take all the things that you know are right and that you've procrastinated on, and make it right.

Its uphill, you just have to try.

>Look after your damn teeth

this

my hygiene went to shit at 25 I didn't get bother getting my wisdom tooth pulled and it knocked out a molar causing me to eat funny and wear down an incisor

Thanks, user. I'm about an hour drive away from Amsterdam, but in my city there are prostitutes as well.
Maybe I'll even go there this evening. We'll see.

But I think your post would be more suitable for 20 year old me and he would've appreciated it.

30 year old me just wants to settle down. Have my own family. To be the man that takes good care of his wife.
To become a father and be the best goddamn dad I could be to my son or daughter. And all of this was supposed to be with her... this hurts so much. She was my 'the one'.

With Veeky Forums's knowledge and blessing I'll improve myself immensely and be better now than I have ever been. I'm going to get my things in order and everything.

It's all just so hollow, though. Hope I'll snap out of it rather sooner than later.

I've been a worthless grieving slob for about two weeks now. Fortunately I'm putting a stop to it today, though.

>Also take the opportunity to do the things you couldn't do as much single with a girl nagging you to be home or whatever.
Hah. Her nagging to be home was the best thing. I loved her attention and I loved every second together with her.

I'll make it right. I won't try. I'm going to do it.

I'm curious user what caused the break up

It sounds like to me you stopped developing..... like you loved spending every second with her when did you go off and express yourself? Learn something knew or discover a new joke or anything that you could bring back to the relationship. I don't believe any relationship can survive with people right by eachother side 24/7. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

>move to another city together
>hate it there, struggle personally
>don't talk about my feelings and leave her in the dark
>she develops feelings for another
>she talks to me about it before it escalates
>talk a lot and we both give it a shot together
>the more we talk, the more I realize I had already lost her months ago
>I've become the adventurous option, while he became the safe option
>she has chosen for me, but continuously fears it was the wrong choice
>despite it all, still love each other tremendously
>deep down know it's already over and the battle long lost
>let her go

It was the best choice I could've made. I know that.

But not a second goes by where I doubt it. I should've given it more time. We should've talked more. Of course the spark wouldn't be back in a week. I had to give her time. I... I made the wrong choice and I lost her.

I regret it so much.

But it was the only choice... right?

Thanks i needed this thread

But what exactly is "eat right"?

Perhaps.

Either way, hard lessons have been taught and learned.

Hopefully I'll be able to apply them in my next relationship; if I ever stop being afraid of letting my guard down again, that is.
I wasn't prepared for this amount of heartbreak and I don't ever want to experience it again.

Absolutely the right choice. Don't even think about second guessing.

user, I am only 31. I got married like 6 months ago. Biggest mistake of my damn life. I'll be getting a divorce as soon as I can (they make you wait a year!). I got married because my long term GF was having Visa issues. I thought she'd be grateful - women literally aren't capable of understanding honour or loyalty or gratitude in the same way a man can understand.

Go bang a hooker. You have love/loss hormones fucking up your happiness.

Maybe you should get involved with something constructive. Maybe you should become active in Gert Wilder's Party for Freedom and help save your country.

Don't be a loser who thinks his life is over at 30, epic fail. Just as an example from your nation - Fucking Vincent Van Gogh only started painting at 27! Bad example in other regards, but he was hardly 'past his prime' at 30! Fucks sake man. Get some perspective.

What the fuck... Go on Jewtube and listen to the Black Philip show podcasts and find your inner pimp.

You have this backwards mang. Imagine this from a selfish male perspective.

>She doesn't like it.
>Walking down the street.

GET A FUCKING GRIP! And grow a pair. And I mean that in the kindest possible way user!

Get your will changed or done after you're divorced. In many places marriage puts your spouse as your next of kin then divorce for some reason doesn't reverse that.

If she was perfect then it wouldn't have ended. I don't say that to be cruel, it's just the reality. Don't get deluded into thinking something will last forever. I'm not saying to become cynical either, but as hard as it is not to you need to avaoid dwelling on what if's. Take some time to mentally recover and move on, you can always find someone just as good if not better even if that seems impossible.

Thanks, bro. I'm sure I'll recover eventually, but it's been hard as fuck so far.

For now it'll just be hookers and iron.

It does seem impossible.

But I won't give up.

>tfw my dad avoided all these his entire life, then got cancer and died a year after he retired to take care of mum who has a brain tumour.

Well i know how im dying.

similar im 31, been lifting eating clean for like 90% of the last ten years. All my friends are starting to look like shit, bald, fat, old looking.

I have 22 year olds still throwing themselves at me. They think im like 25, even had 21 year olds come at me..

I'm pretty dumb and have done alot of stupid self destructive stuff in my life. But one thing I hit the bullseye on is taking my fitness serious as fuck.

I legit have one of the best 100% natural bodies I have ever seen.

Don't believe the "too old" hype, user.
I'm 39 and just got started lifting 7 months ago. Already past 1/2/3/4 and am on the way to 1.5/3/4/5.
I also finally decided to go back to college last year and I'm pulling a 4.0 with ease. I thought the young people would kill me since I hadn't seen the inside of a classroom for 20 years. As Trump would say, "Wrong."

I would add: do meditation/yoga and dont stress.
I did everything in this list since I'm 23. Now I'm 34, I fit in with students and people assume I'm their age (doing Masters degree).

Thanks for the tip. I honestly don't know if I will be getting married again. I used to think I would only do it after having kids to give them stability or some shit. I did it to help this bitch not be thrown out the country, and if anything rather than eternal gratitude, all it has done is make her feel like her position is safe so she doesn't have to try as hard and acts like she can call the shots now. She thinks she's the fucking CEO of me all of a sudden, even though we had long discussions before hand about how I still saw as a gf and bf and the legal document was just to keep her from deportation. There is a reason they are called bitches. And she keeps telling me she's not a feminist. All bitches are self serving parasites, it's in their very nature.

Atta boy. You'll be on your feet in no time. Separate your body needs (sex) from your mental needs (friendship/companionship, etc).

These are just sensible steps to prevent being dead/disabled even sooner. Nothing makes you immortal. Do you live near a coal factory or something?

Pics or didn't happen. No homo.

>meditation/yoga
I forgot that but good addition. Time time to constantly re-assess your trajectory in life.

The last job I did people assumed I was in my early 20's and into Sports in a big way due to athletic physique and complete lack of signs of aging. I'm not. Haven't played Sports in a decade (probably my loss not playing them, but watching Sports is basically cucking yourself) and am 31. And at the gym the only guys clearly kicking my ass tend to be roid mutants and ultimately they are fucking their organs. And chicks dig a naturally healthy athletic looking guy. i see them miring and even my (soon to be ex-)wife has pointed out the me hot bitches inspecting me up and down when they think no one is looking.

You actually seem in a great position for self improvement. I know what being rejected by the girl of ''your life'' is, pretty recently for me.

You weren't ''good enough'', now what are you going to do about that? What happens if you meet someone else like her or even better? will you let this happen again? or are you going to improve and be ready, aim higher?

Its all up to you man.

Quads of truth

It's time for me to leave the boy behind and become a man. I'm 30. It's time.

I will be the best that I can be from now on.

Goddamit do I love when Veeky Forums gives more legit advice than shitposting.

Listen to these fellas, they're on point.

This thread has motivated me. Went through a divorce myself. She valued her career and face more then me (she's chinese). Was told I was basically dead weight (after 5years of supporting her ambitions).
Time to move on and be better then the man I was yesterday. Thank you for this thread user I really needed to see it today.

This guy called it. I'm 42, started BJJ 38 and I would beat the living shit out of 30 year old me. It wouldn't even be a fair fight.

you're going to make it, my friend

Your light will outshine hers by tenfold and you will be more than you have ever been.
