To be honest it sounds like either you have dopamine burnout or you yourself are boring.
Boring insofar as you don't have many hobbies, social groups, sports, etc.
And if I am wrong on that, the next obvious choice is that you don't have many dimensions to connect on and/or you haven't found a girl that connects on those levels.
Sex with a hot girl but no emotional connection is boring. Picking up girls is boring. It's an empty life.
Building a life and connecting emotionally is what we have evolved to do. That is where fulfillment lies.
But if you've spent a life jerking off to porn and playing video games you have likly burnt out your dopamine system.

good take!
dopamine burnout can be healed with exercise, music, protein, and going outside which are all things i need. definitely trying this.

Haha actually no, dopamine burnout is a long time neurological thing. You need to reduce activities that you find entertaining, addicring or pleasurable.
You will know when you don't get bored doing nothing. That means you are back to base line

Holy shit dude. If you stop doing those things it will help. Start working out a lot and your sex drive will go through the roof!

It's basically where your life consist of only a handful of items that are basically ALL quick entertainment or addicting (video games, jerking off, obsession with hobbies).
You will know you have it when almost EVERYTHING seems boring or normal activities do not seem worthwhile.
You should moderate dopamine usage.

i can relate to the part where girls all start to look average.
girls who i would have killed to hook up with when i was younger are opening me and all i see when i look at them is someone with a rodent face, or a girl with just a little too much make up, or a little too much fat, or some weird feature like a zit on her forehead or weird posture, or a little older than i like, etc.
it's annoying, kind of wished my standards were lower because you come to recognize that genuinely hot girls are very rare. once you start to get some it feels like your standards go high and you become picky like a woman.
i don't recommend the coke though, absolutely killed my dick the few times i tried it and tried to fuck. couldn't feel a thing, last time that happened to me i tried to just pull out and finish myself off and it wouldn't work, woke up the next morning with bruises on my dick i was squeezing so hard just to feel something.

Looks like you need to find purpose and mission man.

Thatβs normal. The average person is boring and ugly. But itβs necessary to go through them to meet higher quality people.
