work hard and do your best user
you’re gonna make it

exactly the same for me

now you need to strategize. for that do independent research. no one will openly tell you the stuff you really need to know.

Same for me, start by dumping anime

holy shit are you me?

Maybe you should stop by being an anime tranny degenerate

Move out of your parents.
Learn Spanish or mandarin.
Live in the hood.
Buy a gun.
Learn how to shoot it.
Hit the gym regularly.
Don’t forget to live.

You’re only 20. You’re not a measurably different person than you were in high school yet.

You're in for a fun ride, dude. In a year, you can legally drink with your friends at bars, games, concerts, wherever you want. You're gonna have some fucking benders to tell stories about. In 5 years, you'll be able to rent a car. So you'll be able to fly to anywhere in the US and be able to get around wherever you want. You're going to start making real money, which means you can start doing real things an having real hobbies.

Oh and if you're a fuckup right now, you have 10 fuckin years to get your shit together before society considers you to be a real adult. Have fun!

I'm 30, bet I've accomplished less than you

>You're in for a fun ride, dude. In a year, you can legally drink
kys

For what reason?

>Alcohol

ngmi

nothing you couldnt have done at 18 now shut up and get at it

Wtf are you on. Stop pretending you're an adult you're 20 years old ffs

you are realizing adulthood is the hugest scam

>You're gonna have some fucking benders to tell stories about

Which nobody will want to listen about unless they are a loser who can only reminisce about their college years.

From my experience? Soul draining nothing. Life sucks from about 16 to 24.

I’m 20 and I used to feel great and young and good about my age, like my life was just starting, up until a few months ago. I used to just brush off these threads as bait but now it’s really started to get to me. Is 20 really old? I’ve been cocoon mode since 17 and I thought it was a good thing as I focusing on myself and on self improvement but this board would have me believe I’ve wasted my life because I wasn’t building memories. I’m almost 21 now fuck. Did I really waste my prime years?

Sometimes I don't even know if these posts are genuine anymore

You're literally not even an adult yet

>tfw I’m a son to be 25 year old boomer
College was a mistake

you feel bad because you missed out on opportunities. you still have enough

I'm 20 too and I feel the same. I have spent the last 4 years on self impovement and shit. But now I look back and I realise 14 yr old girls have more experience than me. I have spent 4 years doing routines. I have no experiences. No memories. Every day is the same. Yes I have a good body, yes I excel academically, yes I look good. And yet I feel like I have wasted my youth. I am now scared of even going on a date with a girl. What will she do when she finds out I have never experienced so many things that are normal for normies growing up?

>cocoon mode
you have wasted a lot of time but you can undoubtedly make up for it

Global War, Economic Collapse, Manlets, and Women who think that they are men.

>don't get addicted to any drugs

23 year old here, my personal advice if you're in school is force yourself to join a club, worked wonders for me.

best time of your life where you shed your teenage anxieties and conquer the different arenas of life

Its gets worse. I'm 23 and followed the same life like you except less weights and fitness more academically oriented and I realized that I wasted my youth on a college lie fed to me by my parents.

>Also doesn't help that my college was mostly guys 55-45 ratio and the women here if they were decent were sleeping around with a guy a week.

I’m also 20. I did a lot of partying and drugs from 15 til now. I’m sort of ambivalent about the whole thing. I lost my virginity last year. I’m studying law at university and I have two good, trustworthy friends. I had a lot of toxic friends who I’ve since cut off, because many of them are now criminals. I’m relatively Yas Forums, 6’0 and 82KG, been lifting intermittently from 16. I’m sort of bummed about university being cut short because I was hoping to find a romantic partner, I don’t have a lot of sexual experience.

Altogether I’m rather ambivalent, and that’s probably not a good thing. These are my thoughts as a fellow 20 year old.

literally nothing and fuck you wojackniggers honestly

Yeah... I basically did everything as I was supposed to... I already have a high paying job lined up and everything. But I feel like it was all for nothing. I am just a robot doing what I am supposed to.
At my college there are like 4 women in my class of 140 (and they are either ugly or massive whores). If I just live my normal life I can go without interacting with a woman (that is not my relative) for months...

>14 yr old girls have more experience than me
at sucking dick yes.

Here's what will happen

At anything that is not school, gym or work, yes. I am living a parallel life.

I'm 27.
Life's better after college. 3 years ago I was in college and had $200 to my name, now I'm making $75k/yr.
Don't care about lifting as much. I still do it for myself but I have a wife who I don't need to impress.
Only thing I miss is fucking 18-year-olds. That's ok though. I'll take the money and the freedom.

This will NOT be my destiny!

Make sure of it , that's what I said , and now i'm 26 so better start doing things boy

But user, I got fit, I read some books, I got my math degree, I got really good at a hobby, I developed my own unique taste in music, films, and art. Also I got severe depression from the loneliness but I guess that comes with the territory.

Thing is you can do all that while also socializing. Cocoon mode is just a cope for people with no social life.

You're in for nothing, you're still young until you hit 25.

Something similar minus the high paying job, I am about to finish an accelerated masters program and need a break before I look for work. I was hoping to spend my 3 or 4 months working out and maybe trying to finally pick up a GF but I don't know if its worth it anymore.

This

Almost 30 here, you're gonna come on Yas Forums and laugh at the 'boomers' 5-15 years older than you complaining about their shitty lives.

Then suddenly you'll be almost 30 and realize that you wasted 10~ years shitposting while pretending like you were totally gonna make it.

What do you recommend then. I got fucked that my parents are both immigrants who helicoptered my ass all the way to senior of high school and even I wasn't allowed out of the apartment, mind you not a house 4 people living in a 2 bedroom means no privacy, though I had a car and bowed to their wishes of going to college.

Pick yourselves up zoomers. I see a lot of you are depressed and look hopeless, what you don't see is the truth in the mirror and what you have become. Most of you made huge progress but you are freaking poisoned by social media cause you there are men who are leaner and better than you. Compare youself to the guy you were yesterday. Life os short

> t. 30 year old boomer

All the angst and hormones of being a teenager, plus you get to deal with adult responsibilities.
This is the best time to develop into the man you want to be. Form the right habits now and it will be easier to stay mentally and physically fit when you start to decline into your 30's.

You won't notice it at first, but slowly, some issues will pop up in your life. They'll be very small and easy to ignore at first, so that's probably what you'll do. They'll grow slowly, just slowly enough that you can make cope-level non-adjustments in your life to be able to ignore them longer and longer. You'll tell yourself that you're fine, and that you don't need to radically change your life. After all, radical change is scary and so many people have been fucked up by it! Best to play it safe, right? Then, you'll realize that all these problems that you've been hiding are actually huge now, and that you've never noticed because of how slowly they've grown. People will see them, but they won't tell you about them because its impolite. So, you'll be blissfully unaware until you're a mid-30s bald, fat, hairy alcoholic with no money working a job he hates with a woman that he's settled for and kids that prevent him from killing himself or throwing his whole life away and starting anew. You'll be trapped with no way out and then you'll finally realize what older people have been talking about. You never really understand just how life can break people, make them kill themselves, make them abusive, make them ugly. Then you'll wake up and it's happened to you. And at that point, it's either you work extremely hard for the rest of your life to salvage some shred of meaning from it all, or (more likely), you'll give up.

Make the radical changes now. Jump on every tiny problem with all your efforts. Use your youth and energy to accomplish your dreams NOW and NEVER settle for anything less. CRUSH your competition, work HARDER THAN YOU HAVE EVER IMAGINED because that is the one way you end up with a life that's been worth living.

That's what you're in for.

You're still a kid. Most people are kids until they're in their mid twenties, IMO.

Get a 401k or Roth, save as much money as humanly possible. Building positive habits is fucking huge, as well as learning _how_ to build those habits. Take care of your skin and mental health.

It's easy to think "Oh no I'm 20 and I've wasted my whole life" because it's really hard to actually conceptualize how long life is at that age. It's okay to be afraid, or to feel lost, or whatever. That's kind of what being a young adult is. It's not okay to do nothing.

Career wise my advice would be to try a lot of different stuff and make a list of what you liked, disliked, and why and try to build up a venn diagram. Think of it like -- what you're good at, what you believe in, what you enjoy, and what you can get paid for. You can build from there.

Work on building friendships. It's really hard to make friends as an adult b/c you're not sharing any real big formative experiences.

Oh keep learning shit. It's super easy to get complacent and comfortably miserable. Whatever you do, don't do that. Once you stop running you'll forget how. Maybe not right away, but that's the trap of it. You won't notice it's killing you until you're deep in.

Where do you get a 5% ROI? The highest i can find is 2% (UK).

If feel like I missed on my highschool years. At least I stopped being a dork senior year and enjoyed myself. But still, I was too much of an idiot to notice signals from girls. I don't know. It's a bittersweet feel.

turning 30 think year. still banging 22 year olds an the regular. my advice:
>don't stop lifting
>establish a career
>get out of any toxic relationships; partners, parents, friends, workplaces.
>know yourself. mediation, reflect on your week, if there's one thing I agree with Pol tards on it's western civilization is too consumer focused. Netflix binging is a disease. thinking about yourself and why you made the choices you did on a given day will do you good for emotional maturity
>fuck hard, slap them, choke them, degrad them and you won't be able to get rid of them.
>if you haven't yet fix your fucking diet

>I’m 20
You're a child.
