Sup Forums, What's the point in living if I've already missed out on the one thing I ever wanted; teenage love?

>pic related, probably me soon

Post timestamp

its not me

So

Teenaged love is highly overrated.

It's largely a learning experience, and while yes, it's intense, passionate, and occasionally fun, it's never as rosey as movies, the media, and people's memories make it out to be. You spend more time stressed and insecure than you do happy, unless you get really, truly lucky. Much like how preschool and kindergarten are basically about learning what not to do when interacting with other kids, middle school and high school relationships are basically just learning what not to do in relationships.

You missed the tutorial, mate, but you've still got the whole game ahead of you. Maybe stick around and see how it goes?

I can't post a timestamp of someone that's not me...?

You post yourself

Yeah, that makes sense... Thanks user.

I feel like it was the easiest time of our lives to actually meet relateable people too. And now I don't know anyone irl outside of my family.

Damn that was a good one. I feel happy with my girlfriend but I see where you're stance is. Im constantly stressed and anxious when I'm not talking to her and so is she. Every night when one of us sleeps the other is anxious and wants to talk but can't. It's a weird thing

why?

never too old to rob the cradle

>never to young to rob the grave

Yeah I know..

I feel like it wouldn't be the same however

Those are the rules of Sup Forums, timestamp to prove you are not a troll

i don't know how a pic of me would make me not a troll

I don't agree with it being like that, but this IS how society rolls nowadays. It's stupid, but nothing we can do to really fix it anymore can we.

Are you new here?

Bump

nahh, just mentally challenged, apparently

get into drugs and satan quick

>I feel like it was the easiest time of our lives to actually meet relateable people too.
Yes and no. You're kind of thrown into a big box full of horny people, and you all at least have something in common, but at the same time, once you're out on your own it gets easier to find people you really have stuff in common with. If I think back to highschool the people who were most similar to me only had a few things in common, but the people I can meet now will share more of my interests, or will be fucking crazy people I'd never have met in highschool. Plus, the sex gets better because more people know what they're doing, and money enters the equation.

Yep. Pretty common when you're young and dumb. It gets better, trust me.

I don't see it as really being a bad thing. You spend a few years when you start fucking up and making mistakes. That's true of pretty much any new skill you pick up.

>once you're out on your own it gets easier to find people you really have stuff in common with

Well yes but ultimately it's much harder to meet people in general when you know practically no-one irl. Especially if you're a complete autist when it comes to conversations and such

>Plus, the sex gets better because more people know what they're doing, and money enters the equation

Oh and also I feel like lack of knowledge and that makes it all the more of an experience and generally fun overall.

Money being introduced, in a way, ruins the whole feel of things, if that makes any sense at all?

haha i wish i knew people man, i wish

It's the dating situation is general, everyone is just disposable. Grandparents have been together since they were married, around 18 in fact. Don't think they fight? They do, all the goddamn time, but then they fix whatever the fuck it was and still love eachother in the end. I don't see that anymore, it's one argument like they have all the time and a newer couple is just toast. Ridiculous.

Not really. Just find something you enjoy, go somewhere where that thing happens, talk to some people. It's not hard. Hit up a gym, a comic book store, or a convention. Especially a convention. I've met more people at comic and anime cons than I have at pretty much anywhere else. Everybody is excited and wants to meet new people, and you know you're going to have something in common with pretty much everybody you meet. You wouldn't believe how much sex happens every night at a hotel when they host a convention of some kind. Just don't drink too much. Lots of cosplay, makeup, and alcohol can lead to you waking up next to something ENTIRELY DIFFERENT than who you went to bed with.

>money ruins things
We're talking about two different things here. You mean relationships, I was just talking about sex. A lot of the time if I'm feeling lonely or on a dry spell or if I just want to get my dick sucked without drama, I'll hit up an escort. Just remember that if you decide to go that way, don't get it cheap. If you're dropping anything less than $500 a night you should be going elsewhere, though the economics of such things vary by region. Get high class girls who only work by referral, and always use a condom.

I hear you, though I'm not sure being locked with someone you don't really love or even like for 60 years is the opposite of what most people would think of as a good thing.

The idea is that you should try to work out your problems instead of calling it quits the first time you have a fight of any significane

I guess dude. I just don't even know how to engage in convos with straight-up randoms or most people for that matter.

> Just find something you enjoy, go somewhere where that thing happens

Yeah, Just need to figure out what, really. Not much I can really think of that'd be a public gathering tbh

>Hit up a gym
kek

...

>The idea is that you should try to work out your problems instead of calling it quits the first time you have a fight of any significance
This isn't really an idea most people have though. Yeah, you hear a bit of that "you deserve better gurl" kind of thing, but you have just as many people getting hitched to someone they have almost nothing in common with because they just happened to get knocked up. To be honest I think the idea of having an exclusive monogamous relationship is kind of insane, because humans aren't naturally monogomous, but if you insist on getting into one, I agree with you, find someone who fits you and try to stick with them, work things out.

You only get better when you practice, mate. Go meet some people. What's the worst that happens? You get rejected and spend all your time alone? That's happening anyway. Failing that, just drop some cash on an escort. Some of the girls I know say that half the guys they meet up with don't even want sex, they just cuddle or hang out or go on dates. Money *can* buy friendship. Or at least satisfying temporary companionship.

Teenage love sucks.
>Can't drive. GL dating someone.
>Zero privacy.
>Hormones. Puberty makes you do stupid shit.
>You arn't educated
>Zero relevant perspective on life

Get over it. Grow up. Live life. Fuck me OP why are you such a pussy?

>To be honest I think the idea of having an exclusive monogamous relationship is kind of insane, because humans aren't naturally monogomous, but if you insist on getting into one, I agree with you, find someone who fits you and try to stick with them, work things out.

I just feel like the connection is more special with only one person, and the longer it lasts the more meaning it has. I suppose I'm just sentimental.

>Money *can* buy friendship
Yeah that's all good if you have money and all lol

I'll figure it out, man. It's just eating me from the inside almost just knowing that I missed out on the "tutorial" as I believe, you put it.

Thanks, user.

I feel like that's the fun of it all though dude

>the connection is more special with only one person, and the longer it lasts the more meaning it has.
Eh... Kind of, but neurologically that doesn't really work. If you want to keep a relationship strong, opening things up after the first 3-5 years is the best way to do it, because that's how long neurochemical "love" lasts, which is one of the main reasons why you should make sure you can be good friends with your partner, because when that hormone cocktail in your brain runs dry, you still gotta make it work. Humans just aren't built to be monogomous, from a brain perspective at least. With many other animals that pair for life, they stop having arousal responses to the opposite sex after they've bonded, which doesn't happen in humans.

Wait. If you don't have a social life, how do you not have money? What are you doing with your time? If you're just stuck up in a hospital or something I get that tho, had a friend with some spine damage who couldn't get out or make money, know that can be rough.

>be me years ago
>had a license while i was 16
>get got lots of pussy.
>teen love is great

>Wait. If you don't have a social life, how do you not have money?

I do *have* money but not enough for anything like that.

I'm one of them lazy fucks that lives on what I believe is called "welfare" in the U.S. It's enough to just about get by, if that.

What are you on welfare for? Do you have some debilitating medical issues? To be honest, if you can type and have a stable internet connection, there are plenty of ways you could be earning money right now.

Next year you won't even admit to posting this. You'll be fine.

How old are you? Life is so dull when you're a child. Fuck that.
That is you. Highschool pussy is easy, But would you rather date an actual woman or some hormonal cunt? I mean, highschool girls are cancer. Ever talked to one? Fuck that.

I like relationships>fucking though.. I am that kind of man. To each their own.

i'm a fucking literal autist that also has global development delay that I technically shouldn't even be given welfare for still

wow the one thing you ever wanted was teenage love?

you sure think small, I don't know what the point of you living is either

>an actual woman or some hormonal cunt
I think I'd argue that most of the "damn that's a woman!" I've seen in my life have been hormonal cunts at one time or another. Hell, most men are hormonal cunts sometimes.

Well you're clearly capable of typing, have internet, and can talk, so there are ways you could be making money right now, excuses be damned.

Exactly! Life was dull as a child....for some people. I always feel like I missed out on being one of the people it wasn't dull as fuck for

>I always feel like I missed out on being one of the people it wasn't dull as fuck for
Yeah... Trust me, kids who have too interesting childhoods rarely end up doing well.

Oh, I'm not denying that at all! Hiring an escort and shit isn't really for me though

>im 23
your right. relationships are better than mindless sex with a whore. doesnt mean picking up chicks inst fun. your just triggered because you didnt get mad pussy in highschool

sounds lame. I've always been above the curve in logical thinking(maturity?).

Women in high school bored the hell out of me. I was in HS like 10 years ago. Rich lifestyle. Ignorant of anything but their money. Hell.. my cultural upbringing for my brain was terrible. The women? I would never want my child to speak how they did.

I am from a very white collar background. My perspective is different then most. Life isn't all pussy and fun. I am here to play a game. My game.

On another note that stupidity did have it's advantages.

eh...

You're saying it sounds lame, typing like a teenager, and talking about how mature you are. Do you see why that looks questionable to me?

To be honest, I never really thought it was either, but there's something really refreshing about it. You date so many bitches who are just cute chicks you're throwing some money at to enjoy some time together and eventually fuck, and yeah, it's great, but it's nice to just skip the bullshit some times, you know? No extra dates, no pretending to be in love, just give her $650, spend the night at her place and enjoy the sex, company, and food, the next day you say goodbye and just leave. No drama, just a quick, honest exchange that you both enjoy and benefit from.

Definitely not for everyone, but you should try it before you knock it, no pun intended.

I'm 24. Got plenty in HS. But zero emotional connection. Nothing compared to my relationship right now.
It does sound lame in my opinion. To each their own.

ur gay

You won't be able not to experience it.

First "love" is always the same cringy, messy ordeal. Like previous anons said, a learning experience.

kinda the opposite if you think about it

Yeah but its just not the same...

>inb4 im a bitch that needs to get over it

OP is just a whiny cunt. im here to remind him of that fact. Why? Because life.

pretty much

>It does sound lame in my opinion.
Assuming your personal bio isn't just full of shit, you and I sound like we actually have a lot in common, but in my opinion having a more emotional chick can be great. I've always found it super easy to cut and run if things are at a place I don't like in a relationship, so if a girl is more emotional and clingy, it kind of balances out a bit. I know that being too detached is an issue I've had in the past, so if I can find a girl who balances out my more grounded mentality with a bit of fire, mores the better. If I get sick of that but still want to get off, I just get an escort. Variety, spice, the rest.

>enjoy the sex, company, and food
>the food
Do you go on dates with a hooker? If not, what kinda fucking ho are you getting that she cooks for you?

The only thing you missed is not being a faggot, faggot.

Cut deep.

kek

take it from someone who just came within inches from killing himself: put the razor away, load the fuck up on benadryl, and after two weeks, never take psych meds again

oh and also love is a lie, life is pointless, and the only good reason to go on living is to see where it takes you

(OP) #

>girlfriend meme

You mean fuckbuddy

Stop the virtue signaling you pathetic peice of shit, dont call her your "girlfriend", you dont really care about her, you just want to show off so no one thinks you are a degenerate, which sharing her on the internet automatically makes you. this is why love is dead and bullshit if it ever really existed

Not hookers man, escorts. I know not eveywhere exactly keeps to the slang my area uses, but around here escort generally refers to a "high class" prostitute. Generally educated, healthy, model-gorgeous chicks who get regular medical checkups, charge way more than a street girl, and only work by referral. A lot of the girls I know spend just as much time talking, "dating", or cuddling with clients as they do having sex.

As far as the food part goes, my IRL job is a chef at an upscale restaurant, so half the time if I'm spending a night with a girl who knows me already, I'll offer to bring over some stuff and cook, and she'll give me a discount, or not, either way, I love cooking and girls generally love it when I cook, so it ends up happening most of the time. Plus, some of the girls know how to cook, because I guess some clients are into that if they're going for the girlfriend thing.

I'm not just grabbing some girl off the street. Generally speaking a night with an escort will start with me seeing some pictures on her instagram when I'm horny, thinking, "Oh yeah, she's fucking hot," meeting up with her, sex, then just chilling and/or cooking, then more sex, then sleep, then sometimes sex the following morning. Bit different experience, and costs more, but in my opinion way better than just getting some whore off the street.

The media depicts teenage love the same way as college, and we all know how that works out.

This sentence is so grammatically ambiguous as to be almost completely meaningless.
>The media depicts teenage love the same way as college (in that teenage love and college are depicted as the same by the media)
>The media depicts teenage love the same way as college (in that the media and college depicts teenage love the same)
>The media depicts teenage love the same way as college (in that teenage love and college are depicted by the same method)

ikr

I can't help but think this is kind of a limited way to start at thread. There are basically only three types of responses to get, and little potential for expansion of the topic.

Eliza again. Haunting me with her presence

i know V.V sorry!

>tfw you never got to have sneaky sex with a girl during high school
>tfw you still can't get that one from high school out of your fucking head

>teenage love
>be awkward and overly romantic over random girl in school
>think it's cute
>end up breaking up
>you beat yourself up for it for months
>become senior and realize "fuck that bitch"
>grow up.


Seriously faggot. This isn't fucking Boy Meets World.
You are no Corey, and there will be no Topanga for you.

pretty much

>tfw you're a creepy clingy autist

ok

Sup Forums seems rather intelligible lately.

I'm not clingy, I just get stuck on what could have been and missed chances.

Amazingly, Sup Forums has become one of the least shit boards on this whole site.

It's been a weird couple of years, eh?

No, I get it, you get stuck up on what might have been. You can't let go... You... Cling to them. You might say.

Brush your teeth though...

Dude... it's clingy

same

Fair enough, but if she got another boyfriend I wouldn't get all mopey about it.
Hell, the only reason I've even been thinking about her at all is because she happens to be single.

Then ask her out.

TEENAGE LOVE DOES NOT EXIST

DONT KILL YOURSELF OVER SOMETHING RETARDED

I would if I could actually see her in person.

Plus, it's been two years since graduation. I am talking to her Facebook, mainly because I've been wanting to catch up with some of my old classmates.

Just ask her out for drinks or coffee or something.

I'm 27 and didn't have my first real relationship until I was 22, she was 18. The difference between someone in their twenties and a teenager is almost nothing.

Neither of you have very much experience, your both just going through the trials and tribulations of growing up and becoming an adult. So what if you don't have a "teenage love".

Get a girlfriend in college, its way better and you don't have to deal with anyones parents.

That is the plan, but I'm still in the process of getting reacquainted with her.


I know how cringy all this sounds, but this is quite honestly the first semblance of real progress I've made towards starting a relationship with someone.

>The difference between someone in their twenties and a teenager is almost nothing.
I... Nigger what? I can barely stand to be around most people who are only a year or two younger than me, and you're saying there's little difference between an actual adult and a highschooler?

I'm not sure if you just have really great teenagers or really terrible 20somethings, but I kind of want to go where you are and find out.

Something is better than nothing.

Damn right it is.

Baby steps and all that.

Is college dating better than HS dating

Yes, in basically every way.

So did i user but honestly you gotta stop worrying what could have happened and think about potential people have had alot worse things go through their life and they push through it trust me man your life will get better as long as you try to make it better. Im broke work 6 days a week im only 18. None of my high school friends ever talk to me. I rarely talk to anyone except when im working but i dont consider my life bad only because i know it will be better someday

Thats good. A gf will be nice after the military.

Yes, unless you like mania, drama, and crippling emotional turmoil. People are generally more chill about dating by the time they hit college, and the sex is almost always better, unless you happen to just love railing teenagers.

yes, a lot. it takes some people some time to grow up. Most people start to get there after the HS point, some before though.

Get some ass while you're in the military. You're in shape and you have a uniform, two things that make it easier to pick up chicks. Pick any given bar in a town near a base, and I guarentee you there are a handful of women in there specifically looking to get fucked by some off duty military hunk.

You'll want something else soon probably. if not kys

>unless you happen to just love railing teenagers.

Well, I do feel left out when chad bros talk about hitting stacy from the back after practice. That sounds like a great experience but losing my virginity to someone I actually like sounds a lot more promising.

>losing my virginity to someone I actually like sounds a lot more promising
To be honest losing your v card is kind of overrated. It's almost always mediocre sex, and you don't feel particularly different afterwards. I waited when I was a teenager, and if I had to do it again, I wouldn't have. Sex is just sex. There's nothing sacred or holy about it. Can it be intimate, loving, and life changing? Yeah, but it isn't usually. I kind of see losing your v card like taking the training wheels off your first bike, in that it only seems like a big moment when it's ahead of you.
