There will be no great purchase of a sports car, no homewrecking, divorce-inducing chase after a girl young enough to be my daughter. I’ve had severe clinical depression since I was like 14; there were never any great pussy-slaying salad days of yore to attempt to return to. When you’re 18, that’s a curse. When you’re pushing 40, it’s a blessing, because you know exactly what you bring to the table (not much) and as such will never be “that guy” at a bar, or on an app, or whatever. Closest thing to a Porsche for me is a vintage Japanese arcade cabinet I bought at the height of the pandemic. (The cabinet in question came out in 1993, and the fact that 1993 is now vintage, is depressing in itself). One weird thing about getting old though is you do start to have a real sense of being transient and that loving sucks - Example: People talk about celebrities and you have no idea who they are, or if you do, you don’t get why you should give a gently caress, whereas when you are young, pop culture knowledge is almost inexorable from building a personality. Aside from games I’ve lost any real understanding of pop culture, especially music. Social media just amplifies the degree to which I’m old and hosed, the only bitter solace being that Gen Z is going to experience the same sinking sensation of shrinking relevance when they log in on Gen A’s neurolink matrix holodeck system (which will still be used primarily for tithing to attractive people just for existing). The hardest thing though is realizing that your dreams aren’t going to happen. Like, I have a better life and partner than I have any right to expect. I’m well educated and work in a field where I get to help people instead of just pushing papers around. I’m underpaid but what I do now is legitimately an end goal in itself for lots of people. But I still feel like a dismal failure at least several times a week because after years of effort I came within spitting distance to a minor level of success in a creative field like 15 years ago and had it snatched from me by a lawsuit by people with more money than god. I’ve seen people associated with that project go on to have decent levels of success and it kills me that my sadbrain just caused me to fall into a dream ending rut after such a major setback. I guess at some point you really start to feel like you’re slipping away instead of emerging. Some people react to this by desperately clinging to scraps of faded youth, others just kind of fall into a gradual silent despair. I’m more the second option and it sucks. TLDR; Ferrari and hot blonde, ala Outrun.

you can easily avoid a midlife crisis by just doing the things you like right away, as soon as you become an adult, and continuing to do things as it takes your fancy as you age

not being an age that gets portrayed a lot, like in media, doesn’t make you like, a bad person just do some things that are nice and enjoy them?

mom and dad fight a lot posted:Me too after the divorce, so I started playing the tin whistle, whittling for a while, and recently I built a Balearic sling to launch rocks into the ocean. This led me down the most hosed up internet black hole I've had the displeasure of stumbling upon in a very long time. They're like us, but they only care about one thing. And it's disgusting. This is where I'll be spending my midlife crisis btw, don't come looking for me. (I'm ashamed.)

Maybe i`ll become a monk or something like that. I am tired of my career, my job is a joke, no family to worry about. And i have had enough hedonistic pleasures. The drugs dont work, the winebuzz feels off and all the things i do distract myself feel completely barren and joyless now. Frequently i will just stop jerking off while i am building to climax because is just cant be bothered about anything anymore. I dont enjoy the things that a monk has to give up so i migth as well give them up too.

I like my life and the stuff I have but sometimes I just want to go to a different town, leave everything behind and live in a small 1bdrm apartment in a small city. I have no idea why, I just do.

My friend I'm sorry and that sounds like depression Perhaps instead of becoming a monk talk to a professional and see if theres a way you could enjoy some things again instead?

I'm gonna go on Facebook and finally tell that guy I had a massive crush on in high-school that I really had a massive crush on him. Those 3rd period showers gave me enough material that I made it to college with little trouble.
