Whats loneliness?
And EVERYBODY has a fucked up family. Whether you know it or not, no matter what they say or act like to strangers...EVERYBODY is human, and that means we all have flaws (well except maybe me :sneaky: ).

HAHAHA! You think posts in an online forum make you elite? Im elite in REAL LIFE. As for my age, Ill tell you my first computer was a Kaypro 10. Asexual?
"Do great things because they make you happy, not because you are afraid how people are going to judge you."
Thats what I just said. So get off the booze and get out of bed...tell that chick your with to do the same.
Edit: I guess I should clarify, that last statement wasn't directed at anyone in particular...simply a life suggestion. Don't be affraid to step outside and actually TRY.

Dude life isn't perfect. You aren't perfect. If you try and keep things perfect you'll be missing the point of life. You really need to go fuck something dude.
Seriously, maybe you should click on that link op had...

Whoops, did I forget sarcasm mode? If I said I was perfect it was purely jest. In fact I came in here with the goal of bragging about how much less perfect I was than anybody else here.
Theres several other things rolling around in my brain that I want to say, but can't get them to transfer here onto the internet for some reason. Communication has always been a difficult spot.

EliteRetard, when you say you don't/can't talk to people, is it a lack of spontaneity, emotional expression, and misinterpretation of others that makes you think so?

Hit up several folks. But iunno, doesn't seem like going anywhere.
I like trying new, different, weird & exotic foods. Only person I found to share same taste is some pretty local rapper chick. But she's semi-busy most of the time. I hit her up, she sounded interested, kind of promising, but won't get my hopes up on hearing back from her.
I want to try getting ahold of several people, but past 2 weekends people have pretty much had any excuse possible to not associate with me.
Hitting up male friends not my first choice of having some socialization, but any chance to meet new people or make new friends & possibly meet a potential special someone, is better than no social life at all, I guess.
Work 6 days a week, Saturday evenings really my only free day for doing much of anything. Ain't shit to do on Sundays & most people just want to rest up anyway, myself included.
Looks like 2 shows coming up next weekend, so that's good. Chance to meet people. City life always puts me in a better place anyway.

Every time I save up any amount, I end up unemployed & float on the savings until landing another job. Has been ongoing repeatedly over the past 4 years.
I've been trying to aim for at least 5K savings to make a move to Vegas, but most I get to is 2-3K before being unemployed again.

What?
All I know is I'm missing something...nobody wants to talk to me. If they do they usually get disturbed/angry/offended. The few people who do talk to me always tell me to keep my mouth shut, they don't like going anywhere with me and tell me I don't know how to talk to people. Unfortunately nobody will give me the instruction manual so I don't know WTF I'm doing. Everybody says I should have learned by now, but nobody is teaching me so I havn't improved much. At least I can talk to a mechanic or order my own food and such now.

That's kind of along the lines I'm talking about, although you seem truly unaware of what it is that causes the trouble. If this is still happening in your 40's, may I assume you're talking about coworkers who criticize and avoid you? And are they more specific in their description? I.e. is it largely involving things like tone or gestures, or is it maybe a matter of being inappropriately frank with others?

I pretty much threw my cards on the table this weekend.
Been trying to get ahold of my fat ugly pregnant friend. Finally she agreed to do something, although I had been dodging her question of what that "something" was until I picked her up.
Then I answered her. Told her I was gonna get a room.
Then she went on the whole "what part don't you understand that we just friends?" I turned around & dropped her ass right back off. Fuck up outta here with that shit bitch.
... Not even ugly fat pregnant bitches want me.
Prostitutes it is...

You're not going to find someone until you learn to like yourself more first.

I don't work anymore, long story short I did what society said I had to do. Work hard for shit pay and accept all the harassment and abuse. You must live a shit life just for the privalege of having life. And after many years of working my ass off I finally got fed up with some of the shit and I finally said NO. So they got all their lawyers and shit to write up charges against me for harassment and whatever else and at the first chance they got they fired me. Which actually took a while, because they couldn't find anyone who could do anywhere near as good as me...they actually had to buy more equipment and hire several people to replace my one position.
I've gotten a lot dumber since I got out of school...but I said to myself, why the fuck do I want to spend my entire existence for the betterment of some asshole? So what if I get a building to sleep in and food scraps to keep me alive. I know I can survive without the things necessary to work a shit job. So thats what I did, I became homeless. I no longer need to spend $1200 a month in rent. I no longer need to talk to/deal with people or spend hundreds in gas and car maintainance...I have no expenses unless I want to.
Its been a little over a year now, and things seem to be going OK. I had cheap vehicles that I bought in cash for work, lived in those until they broke and got another. Visited family (which is what Im doing now, and borrowing their internet) and did whatever I wanted to do. I'm good with money so now theres no problems paying for gas and maintainance, or food. Though I did just buy a really crappy junker of all junkers. I gotta sell it and get something else. First real junker Ive gotten, its a massive sink hole of unending repairs. But Ive driven it over 7K miles in the last 2 months. Mostly through Florida (during spring break), even did Disney World for a week just because I could.
After traveling across America I realize there are some places where you can get a damn good house for under $50K. I might just do that. First though Im going to try to go to Japan. At the end of June if possible. Its amazing how fucked up and totally wrong society is...but maybe my experience is slightly different because Im retarded. Maybe normal people don't get treated like shit or taken advantage of, I dunno. But I do know that I can survive plenty fine on my own. At this point I don't really care what people think...and don't really care if I know how to talk to people correctly. So what if I dont get laid...I still havn't had anyone answer whats so great about it?
It all goes back to that question I asked earlier, what do you really want from life? Are you really happy getting shit on 60+ hours a week for the enjoyment of somebody else. You really happy with what you get out of that arangement? To me it seems like sex and drugs is just a tool to brainwash people. Its been massively hyped as a great and wonderfull thing just to keep people happy with a worthless existence. I might not ever acomplish anything noteworthy...but at least I'm really trying to figure out something. What do I really wan't, what is the real meaning of life? Maybe Ill never find the answers, but I think Im still far better off than being a slave to society.
Ill admit that I havn't really seen anything amazing or breath taking yet...but there are some places worth visiting if youve never gone. Ill keep looking, I have had some good fun and great food along the way. I havn't needed to talk to anyone either, other than "fix my car" and "give me food", I might not ever get into a bar/club or "social" event...but it doesn't sound like I'm actually missing anything.

:thumbsup:, at least for most of this. Having to rely on your family, not so much

Actually Im not relying on family...I come at their request. Florida was for my sister, who has a military husband and young daughter and was planning on a major surgery. She wanted somebody there to help her out. I simply decided to make a fun trip out of it since I had never been to Florida. Unfortunately her husband ended up getting new orders forcing them to move before she was able to get the surgery...so I helped clean up the place, and did all the yard work including tilling and reseeding the entire front yard. I bought them food a few times and paid for my own food while I was there...but I did use their internet and TV.
I came back here to Washington to help my parents...my Mom had surgery on her shoulder because of damage from an old biking accident. It finally became enough of a problem it was getting in the way of her work. I've been helping around the house, doing yard work, reorganizing the garage and putting up shelves and such. I also have a sister in the area (~40min from parents) that was purchasing a house and a truck and wanted some assistance. I've got the time to do research and I'm pretty good at it so I helped there (again borrowing internet). I will be helping with the move painting yard work ect.
Then as I said, I have plans to go to Japan at the end of June. No family there, I will have to pay for everything myself for three months. Im just going for the hell of it. I've never been and just feel like why the hell not? The place Im staying at should have internet so I will probably borrow internet there as well.
After Japan, I dudnno...like I said, I realized I may actually be able to get a nice house for cheap somewhere in America. Everything is stupid shit expensive where I was previously living and working, but trips across the country have shown me there are some nice affordable places to live. If I can buy a nice house for $30K who cares where it is or what the job market is like. Thats under $150 a month. So thats what I may do when I come back.
But I can and have lived in my car for long periods of time, I don't need to rely on family at all. If they ask for my help and I am able to then sure why not...and Ill borrow their internet while Im there. Gets me up to date with whats going on and I can talk other people or freinds...learn new things, do research, all kinds of stuff. I had pretty much decided to live the rest of my days in my car or out camping...I didn't realize I could actually get a house without a job. So origionally I wasn't planning on having internet or anything, but if the resource is available I don't mind using it.
If internet were widely available while traveling, I may have tried to find a way to utilize it...but I didn't see any practical way to do so before. If I can get myself a home base though, then Ill connect my own internet there and then take my travels one at a time from there. It does make things much easier when you can plan and research your trip online. And you can share that plan with freinds/family so they aren't freaking out about you.
Because of the internet I found somebody who may be able to build me a custom vehicle when I get back from Japan (well not 100% sure I can go just yet)...thats definately something Im going to look into.
Its amazing how much shit you can do when you don't have ungodly huge financial burdens. All total my expenses are like $200 a month, insurance, cell phone, food/water, fuel/maintainance, ect. Its very easy to get $200. I now realize how massively fucking stupid I was working my ass off hundreds of hours a month for shit pay and then being forced to spend all of the pay I did get on job related expenses. Its so fucking easy to get $7/hr without working a "job" its not even funny. But without all the massive job related expenses I don't have to work anywhere near as many hours. I have all the time to enjoy for myself.
Simple savings accounts, stock trading, base/precious metals trading, deliveries, simple shit like painting/plumbing/electrical/computer repair. I can get $200 in a day if I spend the same ammount of effort as I did in a "real job" that only gave me a third of that (less after taxes). If I want to do anything fancy all I have to do is get a little more money. For me its mostly buying/selling...I don't have to deal with anybody, its super easy, and you can make decent money. Risky? Sure, but worst case I loose money and have to go back and sit in my car for a few more days.
I havn't yet, but if I got desperate Im sure I could "beg" like a homeless person as well. I'm sure at the end of the day I could have some gas/food and a few dollars if I needed to. But I plan ahead, I always have several gallons of water in the car and some nutritionally dense long storage foods like penut butter and dried foods. Enough to last a month easily, and its really not that much when your only using maybe 1K calories a day. Buying in bulk makes things inexpensive as well. I usually don't spend more than $2.50/lb on anything.
Well I just realized Im writing this long arse rant in the quick reply box...and Im not even sure what I was talking about at the begining. I'm gonna go do some real work now, I've gotten a good dose of mid day fun.
