Any of you have little or no social life outside of work and family?

Socializing at this age is a bit useless, cause everyone else will be hypocrite toward you and would only keep socializing only for his own interests instead of a honest friendship.

You should definitely move near the city, but not in the city. Something like 20min from it should be good; this way you'll have the majority of the conveniences a city has to offer, but without the majority of its inconveniences.

People come and go, they won't stay with you forever. Pay them no mind, you don't need them.

This is the reality for most adults.

Seriously, outside of coworkers, unless you're involved in some group or organization (church, club, hobby group, etc), most adults -- even married ones -- really don't have much of a "social circle" (regardless of what they may CLAIM); at least in any REAL terms (not counting the superficial "fakebook" crap).

Im 23 and haven't had any social life since I was 7 , never dated, not interesting in dating, one friend right now, never had many friends to begin with through school. I was that guy sitting quietly in class doing his work and drawing and that guy sitting alone at a table in the lunch room , I don't classify as mgtow though I read this sub from to time because ive been doing what im still doing for my entire life. I kind of socialize at work because I kind of have to and I work with some dudes who wont stop talking but even then I try to go do my own task away from them ,

The city I live in is a nice one in texas and there's multiple opportunities for social interactions and dating, but im more focused on becoming a graphic designer so I just stay at home after work and just draw, infact its 1:36am and I am about to start drawing some designs here shortly , I usually work 6am-2pm, 7-3pm shifts so when im done with that I just draw and sleep. but im off tomorrow or today so ima start something here shortly and maybe go back to sleep.

I don't think you messed up, if you feel like you wanna be more social than i'd say go head and try it especially since you're nearly 40 it cant hurt just be aware that the grass is not always greener on that side.. The career mindset Is a nice one to have though so i'd say focus on your career. many people in my age group for example waste time partying, socializing instead of whats important which is their future,

I don't because I don't need it. People are annoying.

Get a dog.

I got two kids and I would classify them as anti social life lol. When their mother has them I’m free as a bird. I usually see my Magic friends twice a week and go fencing once a week. It’s been fun and I don’t see it getting boring for a while.

Cities are great so long as you avoid most people and try not to breathe the air and if you enjoy constant noise, chaos and bad restaurants more while not being able to find fresh organic food from a garden...

buff_minorcan · 2019-02-25T08:11:34+00:00

Reality is your almost 40 and there is no organic way to make new friends and your age. If you think it's because you live out in the middle of nowhere....you're wrong. It's cause you are an adult, and friendships are made as children. Sounds like your truest friends all married up so that's that.

Is there anything you can do? Well might sound like an odd suggestion but see about working at a restaurant just part time. I really enjoy waiting tables. Not because I need the money but because it's some kind of fun socializing and one of the last places where you don't have to be politically correct. Restaurant people are always down to go out and have fun. Unlikely you will make true friends but hey, maybe you just need a night out from time to time.

I know I spend most nights solo and love it but every once in awhile if a coworker is having a get together at their place I'll swing by. Have a few drinks, laugh, sprinkle MGTOW redpill knowledge to keep it interesting.

Waiting tables to survive is no fun. Waiting tables for fun can be good times.

Hobbies are great for that. I have real life friends I see twice a year (for various reasons) but my hobbies keep me meeting new people throughout the year, people will the same interests and as passionnate as you

Trots04 · 2019-02-25T08:21:34+00:00

Have you thought about starting a more socially fulfilling hobby?

Examples: sport coach, scout leader, join a woodworking club, bushwalking club, etc.

2019-02-25T12:32:56+00:00

Yep.

wilk2814 · 2019-02-25T14:41:44+00:00

Yeah. It's awesome :-)

I’m 19, not going to college.

I have a new job as a canvasser, and when I get off, I spend time learning how to design and develop websites.

I do feel lonely sometimes, because all of my friends are off at college, or just doing their own thing in general.

I really only have my brother, which I’m fine with. He is my social circle.

Infact, I’m thinking about deleting most of my social media altogether (Snapchat, instagram, etc), because it’s just brainwashing. I just want to go MIA, and resurface as a successful entrepreneur.

Most of the kids my age are focusing on relationships, or taking pointless college classes.

So fuck it! I don’t need em.

I don't work, I have no family, and I don't know any other MGTOW fellows IRL. I don't really have a social life to speak of.

hanskywalk3r · 2019-02-25T13:41:31+00:00

Glad I'm not the only one.

A lot of you are happy to be solo but I'm sick of it. Even just one friend to call up or hang out with occasionally would be a God send but here we are
