This was pretty good but it was basically just a romance flick

This was pretty good but it was basically just a romance flick

That movie fucked me up when i was high, changed my whole view of love

In what way, my man?

I came to terms with the fact that somethings will never happen regardless of the feelings people have

But that just means you'll find someone else later on

True, it almost feels like they're each other's first love. Your first love almost never works out yet it will always have the biggest impact on you.

No it doesn't. It doesn't at all.
Some people live their whole life alone.

Yeah but that person can leave a huge mark on you that sticks with you for years.

Only if you try to be alone

What does that even mean.

The only people who "spend their whole life alone" are ones who either prefer to be alone, or who wallow too much in their own self pity instead of just trying to not be alone.

>implying it can't be pretty good because it has romance

kys

just b more confident bro lol like just talk to her dude the worst thing that can happen is she says no lol then u can be happy u tried instead of being sad u didnt haha

I have a similar relationship with a girl since we were 16, we are 22 now. Every time we are close spark fly and you can feel something special but every time we try to take the next step life comes in the way

not the other user, but you're oversimplifying the circumstantial reasons for why some people are forever alones. this isn't the thread to discuss the complexities of the issue so let it go.

That's true though. People need to get over themselves and learn that rejection is a part of life, and there will be other opportunities to succeed. Hardship is how we grow and develop as people and if you never try you'll never grow.

Or they're just physically repulsive and/or mentally deficient.

But I forgot, people like that are actually invisible to pathological optimists.

Why not? it's an interesting conversation, and it's not like we're talking about anything else. I'm not trying to make you angry or whatever

It never goes away, been friends since we were 15, now ten years later and sparks still fly whenever we get the chance to catch up. At least I finally got the chance to fuck her finally, but I still know deep down we will never be together even though I would want nothing more.

Ugly people settle for ugly people, and yeah you're right about the mentally deficient but I don't think a lot of them have the capacity to know about that shit anyway.

And I'm not an optimist, I just realized that there's no reason to sit around wondering why I'm alone instead of trying something to improve my situation.

im glad that sweeping generality has 100% veracity

mean for
whoops

>Ugly people settle for ugly people
That's kind of a meme people tell themselves. A lot of ugly women still pursue more attractive men and a lot of ugly men pursue internet porn site subscriptions.

At least the women are putting themselves out there, right? That's the main point I'm trying to make I guess

i'm ugly as shit and only want to be with beautiful women. i've been with ugly girls before but never settled with them because my standards are out of my league.

if by putting themselves out there you mean walking outside, then yeah i guess

>10 years
>sparks
It doesn't take a decade to not be autistic and ask a girl out on a date. Quit romantocizing the situation and just do it. Beta Fags like you are you're own worst enemies.

But at least you're making an effort instead of wallowing about it so that's perfectly fine

'Putting themselves out there' doesn't mean a lot in modernity because it's not even so much a matter of entering into any 'out there' so to speak; a woman basically just needs working internet and a dating site profile to draw in attention from heaps of people, and statistically at least a few will be above her with respect to general attractiveness.

There is evidence to back this up, actually. OKcupid released a bunch of stats regarding their userbase and apparently most women perceive most men as being beneath average with respect to attractiveness (Despite this making no mathematical sense) and men are far more forgiving of appearances.

So a desperate but kind of attractive guy is very likely to end up with a desperate and unattractive girl.

Shit just happens.

I was close to being with her but then she and i got into different relationships. I was in a 3 year long relationship until last year.I saw her this autumn and asked her if there are still feelings between us. She said they still were. Then I the retard that i am fucked her over because i tought i could get together with my ex again. I couldn't

I've seen that image and I agree it's definitely easier for a woman to find a man and that's bullshit, but it shouldn't stop other men from trying. I mean don't be a thirsty beta about it, but you get what I mean.

I have told her you moron. She lives in a different city, but we still usually fuck most times we meet up together even though I have a committed girlfriend. We both just realize an actual relationship between us could never really work out, but we're still best friends and fuck buddies.

Yeah but he's still alone. Which returns us to our original point; some people just end up lonely, effort or no, because life can just kick you in the dick that way.

it has literally zero story or character development.

it might make a good 'message', but without those things the movie will be boring no matter what. art has to be captivating in some way, this wasn't.

That's fair, and yeah shit does happen, but giving up on love certainly won't help anything.

>The one post that actually talks about the film

Get out we're busy pontificating about things we collectively don't know much about.

but pontificating about shit we might not know about could lead to greater understanding on the subject. I mean at least with philosophical shit. I don't think we should pontificate about math

literally Nothing Interesting Happens: The Movie

It's so sad thinking about life sometimes. It's not neat and perfect. Why couldn't Bill Murray have been 20 years younger? Why did they both have to already be married? Why can't they both live in Tokyo forever?

It's even sadder knowing that they probably would've grown tired of each other after a few months anyway. Whatever 'perfection' we find in life is never going to last. Then we're left with only memories.

>only if you try to be alone

Yeah life can hit you pretty hard sometimes. I am currently satisfied with mine but i know i could turn to shit in a heartbeat

When I said "physically repulsive", I didn't mean like "the ugly guy of the group, who has the fat girlfriend", I meant like "the guy so ugly that nobody wants to be friends with him".

There's one in every office, and a few in every school. They can be male or female. It's sad, but they will almost certainly be alone forever and that's just the way of the world.

If you think these people will find love instead of occasionally paying for sex and company, you're pathologically optimistic.

Yeah and then you'll have memories of the good times staring at you from far away while your life goes to shit. I should get a grip though. This movie plus this comment are making me experience feelings I haven't felt in a while.

This must be how it feels to peak in high school or whatever.

I imagine at a certain point a person becomes so aware of how disgusting they are that even they themselves don't savor the prospect of having sex with another person, since it would be such a huge disservice to the other party.

Peaking in highschool is better than never peaking at all, I guess ;___;

So go out and peak user. Go peak all over the pace. There's a whole world out there waiting for you to peak on it
