You're a man right?
Under 30?
That means you haven't even warmed up yet.
Take care of the next years and become the guy you always wanted to be in your 30s.
You will rake maximum pussy. Men age fucking well when they take care of themselves.
So your choice, you can either take care of yourself and in 2-3 years look back on your awesome progress, or just stay cuck and be exactly the same when you turn 30. Up to you user.
>29 going 30
all I have is frog posting, could be worse thou
this absolutely
31 here
highschool:awkward good-looking kid, fugg, but the girls pick me rather than the opposite, not necessrily the prettiest
uni: girlfriend on and off, always feel I could do better, smoke more and more weed, gradually faze out of relationships, fugg here and there, nothing worth bragging about
post-uni:few years as bartender, gf? lol, it's sodome and gomorrah, drugs, sex parties, the whole shabang
26: decide I'm not going to be a bartender all my life. Dive into work,work. Work around the clock for 3 years to put enough aside to enroll in MBA, get in, work even more, classes+night job, holidays. absolutely no life, no gf, no sex (twice in 4 years), party max twice a year, generally fall asleep after the 2nd glass because I'm so fucking tired
29: graduate with honors, valedictorian. The international career I was aiming for falls apart when we discover my brother is schizophrene, decide to go back to France to help family.
30: assistant F&B director in a big hotel/casino resort. Hours are insane, still no life, jsut manage to keep working out 1-2 a week lest I go full Freefall because of stress, salary no where near justifying the hours. Come to the realization my MBA won't prevent me from working week-ends, christmas and NY eve (food industry, stay away kids). Feel like I've fucked up everything, spend money and energy for nothing, and like I'm a fucking mongoloid who believed himself smart and enterprising. I gradually start hating my job
cont.
Today: Jumped the fence. Quit my job 6 months ago, and forbid myself to accept anything remotely connected to the food industry. Kinda bum around smoking weed and doing temp jobs for a 5-6 month,but fitness and food are back on track now that my life has some regularity to it, then get tired of it.
Currently in the final laps of hiring interviews to work for a global recruiting firm as hiring consultant for financial executives. I'm the leanest and hottest I've ever been, students hit on me when I go out. If this job comes through I'll be making more money than I ever made before, even without bonuses (which are nearly 1/3 of gross yearly), I'll be able to work 12 hours a dy if needed but still have time for sports and cuties and the lads, hop in on my parents and brother twice a week, i.e a life.
Nothing is set before 30, guys take longer to mature, most of my friends also found their footing after their twenties.
You are depressed first of all because of that weight. Focus on losing the fat, and block out the rest. The self-esteem boost will trigger a chain reaction of looking at everything more positively and feeling more aggressivity and appetite for everything.
Don't think it's "too late", you're still a pup from a 50 yo perspective, now is the time to take risks and send everything to fuck if it's not what you hoped for in life. Falling in a runt is the worst thing you could do.
Pretty much the same as you but I'm scrawny. I won't give up if you don't user.
Also, stop watching sportsball
Time to do a cycle then TRT and wake up from the fog you're in
Even if I make it I'll still be fucking 30 with zero life experience.
I'm not going to "rake maximum pussy."
I'll be too old for late teens/early 20s girls, and I'll be too inexperienced/immature for girls my own age.
Nice self-defeatist mindset. And what makes you think that you can't. Have you been there and done that?
What exactly do you have to lose in trying? Do you have any idea how fast you can get life expierence? Do you really think all those "normies" that are 30s have figured it all out?
Like I said, you can stay cuck, or fucking get off your ass and do something about.
Sort yourself out user.
I genuinely want you to succeed.
26 soon-ish 27 here
got a year contract at work in IT
no gf
my own place
feeling lonely than ever
skipping gym left and right
It's not that I'm giving up in terms of lifting but there's some adjustment of expectations.
In my teens and 20s I always assumed that I'd find some waifu to be with. It never happened and now I realize I'm almost 30 and have never had a gf.
Most girls my age are mothers or at least have had a ton of relationship experience. I'm just evaluating the position I'm in and I'm in no-man's land because there are decades of my life that I can never get back and no matter what I do I will always have those missing experiences that others expect me to have.
Just getting fit and building muscle isn't going to magically fix all those lost years.
I know that feeling user.
I totally get it.
But I want to you realize that despite all that, you've get years ahead of you. Years that can be spend in ways that make you happy.
If anything, you can look back when you are 90 and say: "Well, I sure wasted 1/3 of my life, but 2/3 have been fucking awesome thanks to that. Took me long enough to finally wake up and be the man i always wanted to be."
You are lucky and blessed to be born a man. I know some men in their 50s who not only look like they are in their 30s, but who are still freakishly horny, and even get young girls. Why? Because they take care of themselves, and live life to the fullest.
Constraints are for those with no grand vision.
Learn from your mistakes user, and then move the fuck on and make new, better ones.
feel the same way

Well, it's complicated.
Technically you missed out on teen love, but the whole teen love meme is arguably an imagistic social construct part of "youth culture" (jewish psyop warfare)

I have an autoimmune disease (Crohn's) and my husband wants me to get pregnant again. If we did, I would want to have a kid sooner rather than later, but I'm terrified my Crohn's will flare up again.
Last time I had to have 2 surgeries in 3 days at 5 months preggers and I had to be monitored for the rest very closely. Almost lost the baby. Almost died.
On top of that when I got pregnant last time I was obese, and I don't want to be again. I haven't lost enough weight in my mind to get pregnant again. I want to lose another 30 lbs, but that will take time.
On top of that the very idea makes me terrified. And my husband understands, but he still wants another kid. I'm torn and feeling depressed. Either I take the risk, try to have another child, could lose it or not, could need surgery or not, etc or regret not having another child.
idk what to do guys.

I have no job and its because I have no experience for what I want to get into. Most internships demand you still be in school. If it wasn't for this board the gym, my dog and few irl friends I'd probably have done away with my life.
My network is shit, my experience is shit. What do? Janitorial work?
What was your major?
Re-enroll, do the bare minimum and use the time to gain XP, duh.
This. You might fuck it up, but that still gives you better odds than if you never even try, and there really is no good reason you can't live a good life.
I think, first, you need to forget women for a while. Not forever. Just put them behind your own growth and the life you will start building.
I'm doing just what this user says, I've been in your situation, and am still climbing out of it.
I've got a five year plan; get Veeky Forums and get into work I like. I've already finished training in a trade I enjoy, after exploring them, and will be starting work in spring. From there I'll start saving and living a more social life. Enjoy time with my older family members.
In ten years? I tentatively plan to be married, be it to a good traditional woman or a foreign girl after a long holiday, with my own home and a child or two. If needed, make this twenty years. It's life; there is no rushing these things.
Nothing major.

Go back to school to do internships? probably the best course of action I guess. Squeezing blood from a stone $ wise at this point.
Yeah, and depending on your school/uni's requirements in terms of courses / hours per week for internships you might get away with also working something else on the side to make a few bucks.

How do I fix my shit body while I can?
Lift and eat appropriately.
I did. Two actually. My surgeon and my gastroenterology doctor.
They'd keep me on my immuno suppressants throughout the pregnancy. Which has it's own risks because until a few years ago it was widely believed it caused birth defects. New studies show, not so much. But every one of my containers say "Don't take if pregnant or breastfeeding". My doctor would keep me on it throughout the pregnancy to prevent a flare up or curb one to do minimal damage.
Women with Crohn's are prone to flare ups either during or immediately after pregnancy. My past experience shows I'd have a flare up during if I didn't take the medication.
They say the closer to a healthy weight I am the better the pregnancy will be, but the longer it takes the older I get and that has it's own risks. On top of that, I don't want my daughter 4+ years difference to a younger sibling. I wanted them closer. I would have had another already if I didn't need follow up surgeries after my daughter was born.
i dunno if you all have looked into adoption or how hard it is to do/how long it takes but that could be an alternative to getting pregnant again
Been lifting for about 3 months doing GSLP.
As far as eating properly, should I be eating more or less?
are you two me?
How do I start lifting?
who fucking gives a shit about your nfl team. Why in a million years would you ever base your happiness on that????
Drop the hormones.
This means no more dairy and sugar.
>caring about nigger ball
Fucking hell how do most of you live without killing yourselves? I'm an 18 year old uni sophomore and I feel like I've wasted so much time and opportunities, not to mention the depression
By realizing that, really, even those who have taken advantage of the time and opportunities are nowhere close to content, and are agonizing over the way they spent the time and which opportunities they took instead of others.
Life is just that, life. It goes on and you make of it what you will until you meet your maker, hopefully on good terms with Him.
I wanted to become a Priest/Pastor. Despite all the bad press and the way the church is in decline in the west. I still do. Yet, instead, I'm a Veeky Forums locksmith. Life is pretty weird in the places it takes you. If you can say the world is a better place, and lives were improved by your own existence, even if only slightly, I'd say it's a good life.
I don't really eat sweet things and the only dairy I eat is cheese.
Just get an ostomy and let your husband fuck it

No it's a great experience and I feel bad for anyone who decided not to give it a go.

30 years old and got back into lifting. More gains than ever, looking better than ever, more success with women than ever. Spent the last one and a half years working like 80-100 hours a week on my business so I can live off it. Not nearly there, but getting closer. Still depressed but things are getting better. Have developed closer relationships with some of my friends and might start sharing a house with a good buddy who is also self-employed, so we can help each other grow our businesses more efficiently.
Less. You fat, disgusting, repulsive, cowardly, salami, fuck.
But I hate my accounting major and can't see myself doing it in the future. I've already switched majors like 2 times now.
I have been trying to get a new job though. I want to get a nice comfy office job, but my resume is a fucking joke and since I've only worked in my shit job, its hard for recruiters to take me seriously.
You guys should turn this thread into a general. There are probably tons of people on this forum that are over 25, haven't done shit with themselves, and have fallen victim to the feminine viewpoint that life is best in the early years.
I wonder how many of us have no career, no social skills, no sex life, no friends, no future and are just sitting here waiting for a push in the right direction...

I did 3 years of Pre-Pharmacy, 2 years of Pharmacy school. I fucking hated it and every asshat involved in it. No degree because fuck you go the full way or rot. I have an Associates, but that isn't worth the paper it's written on.

Apply to community college for a semester. Take whatever you want it doesn't matter. You're a student again. Get that internship and stop feeling sorry for yourself.

half of my life is good but other half is shit. I've realised that you need affection and physical intimacy to stay sane as a human. I'm losing it slowly from lack of deep human touch and work/travel stress.
Its nice to vent sometimes. Hope all of us find a way forward. Good Luck cunts.
Should have done what I did, and never have affection or intimacy in your life. It makes it a lot less harder to be lonely when you've never felt what it's like to be with another person.
I like welding in my spare time. Wish I'd studied in something more mechanical based when I was younger.
I dont want to make you feel bad user, but I'd much rather know what I'm missing out on than not.
I'm 18 years old, and after my sophomore year of college I'm gonna take my credits and try out for the Rangers. The only reason I have the courage to straight up lie to my mother and break her heart is because I've stopped taking life so seriously. I've spent recent months training and daydreaming about what could be. But I fear the nonchalance I'm bringing into my life is poisonous, I don't feel anything for things other than the dream I'm obsessed with. I'm scared this will haunt me later on, like I'm gambling my happiness on a test I'm preparing for. Should I be more worried? Or is this what focus looks like?

Can't you be a pharmacy tech? I know its not the same but at least you will have experience working around medicine and in a professional setting.
you're 18 m8. you're allowed to make stupid decisions and get away with it. if the worst thing that happens is that you get 4 years of military experience, then you will come out of it like 21 with a new idea of what to do.
no one in their 20's knows what they're doing. i know guys who've done electrical engineering who then go on to do medicine. i know guys who started as teachers and became geologists.

why are women so much goddamn work?
Once they love you they want ALL of your attention and presence ALL of the time
How do you not feel smothered by that?
Do you wear the number of women you've slept with on your sleeve? Go out there and fuck lol
Not that it would shake me from my decision because I'm not a fucking pushover, but why do you think it's a stupid decision?
Well then fuck off and be depressed then jesus christ
Boo hoo a woman loves me waahhh
Jk dude, it sounds like your life is getting back on track. Plus note pic related for your next girl
i don't think it's one. it could end up being one of those things where you will later reflect and think "fuck maybe shouldn't have done that". there's obvious risk associated with ranger school - high washout rates, injury etc. some people look at that risk and will say it's not a smart decision, but they look at the washout rates like they're luck based statistics and not reflections of qualities within a population.
just do what you want. if it doesn't work, you have a lot of time to reconsider and realign. i'm almost 25, and i'm currently studying and applying to medicine through one giant cunt of a post grad pathway that takes less than 10% of people who sit the exam. i'm only just now thinking about engineering or something.
all i can say m8 is that it's grit, and being too stupid to quit. that's what will get you there, or somewhere just as nice.

It's one of the most retarded sports, just a whole bunch of retarded 300lb apes running into each other for 8 seconds at a time. It has nothing to do with what Drumpflestiltskins says about it, not that kneeling for the national anthem makes it any more appealing to watch.
Do you follow any sport or are you a typical liberal that doesn't believe in physical fitness unless you're wearing a skin-tight latex suit and riding a bicycle?
26 hitting 27. I just went on a journey for my passion found out it was empty too. Life just kind of empty. Bored every day. Not making gains in gym. Trying to find a goal. Realize I don't want anything. Idk what do wait 40 years till I die?
a chance at used up roasties keeps you going?
>a typical liberal that doesn't believe in physical fitness unless you're wearing a skin-tight latex suit and riding a bicycle?
your god empeorr literally said that fitness is bad for you because it "drains your batteries that start at 100% at the beginning of life" you fucking autistic MAGAngoloid
Veeky Forums is safe space. plz go.
Baseball and hockey. Not a liberal btw, pretty much the opposite -- "Drumpflestiltskin" was used satirically
Pic related (it's every woman you'll ever fuck when real men are around and you try to be manly)
Then allow me to attempt to change your mind. Baseball is boring as fuck and hockey is just soccer with sticks.
Football is nuanced and casuals and newbies have a hard time with it because it's hard to understand what's happening. Whereas simpler sports you literally just follow the ball. Football is strategic. Yeah, great players will make great plays and pure athleticism can carry teams. But it's such a team sport that even a single weak cog can be exploited and cause the entire team to falter. This is why there's only 16 games in a season but only 2 teams have gone undefeated, and neither won the championship. It's a tough sport.
