After lurking for a couple weeks after knocking up the courage, I've come across a sad realization.
We are lonely people, /cm/; so very, very lonely...

I'm not. I actually have a very active and entertainingly diverse social life and go out almost every day.

Lonely? Not exactly. I choose not to associate myself with a lot of people after a lifetime of disappointments and ruined friendships over stupid things that never mattered. Even so, a bunch of my current friends don't even understand me as it is seeing as they don't go on the internet.
It's kind of funny, actually.

I'm not lonely. I can chat with the entire /cm/ + the people on skype and msn whenever i want.
But IRL, i don't like hanging out with people.
Most of the girls now are backstabbing each other and if i dare to talk with a boy all will go "OMG U LIEK HIM U LIEK HIM OMGOMG"
I occasionally talk with people at school, and maybe hang out with them after.
I'd rather lurk 4chan and play console games than socialize.

Also, 3D is pig disgusting.

I'm more extremely horny than ronry. I have one close friend and I don't hang out with people much even though I try hard to make new friends, but I've failed so much I give up and have gotten rather used to it.
But what really sucks is I can't really be a slut, but I can't get laid at all either. I have a very strong sex drive yet I've literally gone years without getting any. Shit sucks.

I come here to look at pretty pictures maybe three times a week, it doesn't make me ronery. Sometimes I even have a non-imaginary friend sitting next to me while I'm here, believe it or not.

Am in a happy relationship, with sexual activity at least twice a week. I see my social group twice a week for at least 6 hours at a time. I am an introvert, so this is an adequate amount of socialness. Currently have a room to myself, so life is beautiful.

I used to not be so lonely. Had 5 really great friends. All the kinds of friends that would take a bullet for you. But we all went our separate ways in life in different states. They found new friends and boyfriends/girlfriends. We still talk online a lot, but it's not the same. I on the other hand failed out of school and am currently headed no where in life with no one by my side.

As for relationships, I want to find a boy, but most of the gay guys I find either don't like me or I don't like them. And I'm a hermit, so finding already hard to find people by being a shut in won't cut it. I've once again turned to the internet for friendships in this transitional period of my life. Hopefully I find some people in real life soon.

I have good fandom friends. I just won't touch 3D men
because in college all they want is a hook up, and that's lame.
Non-fandom life is so dreary, I tried doing a semester with it. All people do is drink and hook up with ugly 3D guys (good-looking irl guys are hard to find, and when you do find them, they're total sluts because well..they're hot). It's so disappointing. And so, this somewhat attractive anon-girl would rather be on 4chan. plus, drinking makes you fat anyway.

It sucks, I have a couple girlfriends who are like "I can't like real boys, blah blah" which is balls, because thats a really good experience to have (I guess if you're straight, whatever).

I've always enjoyed irl sex and fun-time and having an active social life. I'm a huge nerd, but it always comes second place to real life. I have two jobs, go to university, own my own place, get high with my friends, go to movies, have sex with men and women I meet, and then I rpg online, play with my Wii, freak out on Rockband, and get off to hot young gentlemen.

It's a busy life, but a beautiful compromise. I wish so many fan-girls didn't get so picky with irl men just because they didn't stand up to their weird drawn-guy standards. I was like that for a month once. Then I got so sick of myself I stopped. It will hold you back.

While I might be unhappy or lonely once in a while, and relationships might fall apart, things works out one way or another. I don't go looking for relationships or friendships, but i stopped actively trying to avoid them as well after high school. There's just no point getting hung up over meaningless things. Sometimes being alone is nice, and it's something I missed while I've been in my ongoing failing relationship, just as it's something I'll hate when it's over. Everyone is lonely from time to time, but life is long and things always get worse but they also get better. I just try to stay objective.

>>844713
Probably not. I hang out with friends once or twice a week when I have time between work and other hobbies, but even though I'm probably not the best example since my hobbies are pretty nerdy for the most part and I dont have more than one or two close friends at any given time, I usually just don't post around here, and I know others who are the same. We just lurk for the pics and are usually too lazy or disinterested to say anything. The internet attracts all sorts of people...

Been in a 4 year relationship before. It gets tiresome, trust me. The whole social pressure of NEEDING SOMEONE OMG and not being a virgin is all bullshit, don't feel bad for being here. Live according to your own standards.

I am surprised at the little man hating in this thread (compared to the rampant misogyny in /a/ oh boy). Girls generally handle roneriness better than guys from what I know.
I hate the whole "girls can get whoever they want" coming from geek guys, there are plenty of shy girls.

I'm actually lurking far longer then I typically do simply because I've got a paper to write and I'm avoiding it like the damn plague. Unless I start a thread and want to keep an eye on it, I'm typically only long enough to browse for pics I like then move on to other things.

I guess I don't have much of a social life, but that unrelated to 4chan or the internets. I'm just not a particularly social person, though I try if it's needed of me. Actually, I can be very outgoing and wouldn't consider myself shy. Hell, I work in a bar. Drinking doesn't appeal to me, though, because I can't find anything that doesn't taste like what I assume horse piss tastes like and I don't like loosing my lucidity. Sobriety also really reminds you how fucking annoying drunk people are.

I could come up with a lot of reasons for being a virgin internet loser cruising /cm/, but lately the foremost reason in my mind is how slowly nearly all of the guys I know are maturing.

All the guys I meet have the mental age of 8-10 year olds. It's bad enough that I have to deal with their shitfit temper tantrums and irritating bids for attention and validation at my job, I can't imagine actually WANTING to have one of these loathesome presences in my life, even for only a few hours a week.

Sometimes I hear them whining and I just want to say, "This exact same problem is something I figured out and got over more than 10 years ago." Where the fuck have they been, a bubble?

At any rate, the concept of having sex with any of them? I'd feel like I was raping a little kid or a retarded person, because they're just that fucking stunted. I have to constantly rein myself in, use gentle, small words, handle them with kid gloves because they're so tender and delicate.

There are plenty of exceptions, of course there are, but y'know, fuck it. I don't need one of these, at all. Fish, bicycle, etc. If a good one comes up, I'll know, but in the meantime, sincerely fuck it.

I'm not lonely for friends, but I AM lonely for a significant other. I'm old enough that most of my friends are now married or engaged and it IS a bit depressing.

But I'm picky and, unfortunately, a bit shy. But you know what? Guys my age (30-something) tend to be unattractive and bitter. I'd totally pick up a 20-something, but that'd be a little creepy.

It's still not a proper expression.

"Y'all, sometimes spelled as "Ya'll", "Yawl", or "Yaw", and archaically spelled "You-all", is a fused grammaticalization of the phrase "you all". It is used primarily as a plural second-person pronoun, and less often as a singular second-person pronoun. Commonly believed to have originated in the Southern United States, it is primarily associated with Southern American English, NIGGER Vernacular English, and some dialects of the Western United States."

I want to whine here for a moment so I apologize in advance, but I am just not good at making/keeping friends. I would love to have one or two close friends that I can talk with regularly and go out with sometimes. I'm not a terribly social person, and I guess I'm pretty awkward, but I don't really think it's in a terrible way. The thing is that I always end up screwing up any friendships I might have made by not knowing how to deal with any romantic issues that pop up. The people that I'm attracted to as friends seem to be attracted to me as more than friends, and it just never works out. I want to be friends with the nerd guys who surf /a/ all day, but I want to fuck my female calculus teacher. Though of course I'm too shy to do anything about that, so I just bawwww over it, and of course I lose the "friends" I have eventually.

So I haven't really kept a friend for more than a couple of months in the last few years. It really kills me. I'm sick of dick, I just really want a friend. The internet is seriously the best friend I have.
