Lol, you don't meet a wife on tinder or a nightclub man. That's not judging. That's just a fact...

Do you think it's a waste of time (and money, lettuce be cereal, i'm going to be picking up the bill) if I go today? Should I just keep it friendly but professional tomorrow in a proper setting rather than meeting two of them today in a casual setting for food, given they all have BFs?
picking up the bill for 3 girls you will be tutoring/ aren't even real friends with.. is moronic. i wouldn't go personally/ nothing to gain, unless one has a slooty vibe

I'm starting to sympathize with used car salesman brah. Guy has everything like me; a good job, good savings, gets to go on vacations, some good brahs, no debt - but without a woman, it's meaningless. You're constantly lonely and life is pointless. I'm not even talking about marriage, but I don't talk to women. I have Tinder matches but don't know how to converse with women. I don't have ANY hope of getting a GF. Just like used car guy, I work in a male dominated environment so I don't have any female companionship at all. I'll probably never have sex again unless I pay for it. And it's just led to a massive FA hole in my life.

I want kids. I want something to look forward to. I want someone to tell me they love me. But the way my life is going, i'm thinking it's going to end in depression and suicide just like most corporates who never marry.



However, what if I think phuck saving and just make the most of my life from 25 to 40? If I know i'm going to call it a day when i'm single and there's nothing to live for, why waste my prime years not enjoying life and being a frugal kunt who saves for his wife to live in a 5-bedroom house? What if I fly business class instead of premium economy? What if I buy a Breitling as my daily wear instead of an Armani? What if I finance a $200,000 AMG Convertible Mercedes or a bit more and get a candy red Ferrari 458 on my poverty $75K salary with no phucks given, even if it's "beyond my means"?

There's no point me buying a house. It will just go to charity as i'll have no wife or kids to pass it to. Phuck paying mortgage for my remaining 15 years. I may as well move out of my parents house, rent a nice bachelor pad, buy the hnnnnngggggg watch I always wanted and saw the MD's wear in Investment Banks, drive a car that only a board member can afford and start living.



Rather than just rotting because my life is lonely, i'm an FA with no hope or saving hard to start a business and become a fund manager, why not just blow away any savings and inheritance I have on watches, cars, renting a nice pad, drinking goat alcohol everyday, partying with hookers, and then just die once all the money runs out?

Btw, i'm legit not even doing any of this to show off on Insta (I don't even have IG); i've honestly been contemplating that there's no point to my life and I may as well just go all out and enjoy it. I'll start small with a Breitling and see if that makes me feel better about life, and if so, i'll slowly add the rest in!



Thoughts Misc? Inb4 go see a counselor, go get an accountant and go hire an escort before you piss away all your savings and life in 3 years
Yes, spending more money on something stupid is going to make you feel like a man...? really?
Why don't you stand up for your country and not rot EU/ UK away?
Thenyou might have pride? If that isn't your style?... Then yes, spend a lot of money on stupid stuff, that will make you feel like a man and so smart.

One is a real friend; the other two are her friends from uni.

Won't I improve my social skills if I for lunch or dinner with them? Bare in mind that I barely talk to females IRL because there's so few in the work place and I don't keep in touch with school friends.

It will cost me what, $70 for food and $30 for drinks? For the 4 of us? It seems like a small fee relative to the 10K Breitling, and atleast it will help me in some way with women. Women don't have a clue what a Breitling is srs...

Most of her friends are in relationships. I think she kind of fancies me herself, but obviously won't leave her BF for someone like me.

My plan is to learn how to talk to women with true genuine advice (from unbiased girls in relationships), and then transfer those skills across to cold approaching.

If I cold approach women straight away, completely unprepared, they will bertstare me and run away or chat to me for free drinks, not because they are interested in dating.

I think it's worth a couple of $100 dinners with girls in a relationship to learn fast and then hit the wife-material girls in the library, coffee shops and book/activity clubs and know what to say, how to say it, and how to act.

At the moment if I went and talked to a girl and she said something, i'd use things like "poverty, not sure if SRS, just lay down and rot, ayyylmao, etc" in real life conversation (srs)

I'm almost in the same situation as you brah, except I still live with parents, going to college, and no car.


I also never complain and mope around your not having women. We NEED to be talking to them brah. Our social skills are sht around women and we'll never slay if we don't try. At an old age we'll both look back wishing we had conquered our fears and tried

More Advice:

Fuk everything else and Buy a motorcycle. Motorcycles beat everything when it comes to thrill and fun factor. Not to mention Road Trips. And they're cheap so if you do happen to get laid, you won't realized you good yourself in debt

nope cause women can see a cuck a mile away.

that's one thing i give women credit for; their senses are usually on point.

they can smell desperation like sharks can smell blood in water.

even with money, your game is fuked up. women are going to use you for money, and cheat on you with someone like me.

You seem to entertain only extreme permutations of how your life may play out, which isn't realistic or healthy. Stop over-analysing.Just follow your intuition and you'll find that the pieces will all fall gradually into place.

Sure there is nothing inherently unique about some of the most reliable mechanical movements out there. Try again mate.

Rolex is like Mercedes, it's a good quality entry level luxury brand where everybody knows what it means and recognizes it.

AP is leagues above Rolex in price and aim. Hublot isn't however, more on the level of Omega/Breitling.

Lol, I get your point. Luckily for me, i'm too much of a ruthless, emotionless corporate to become a cuck.

If I was with a girl and she cheated on me, I wouldn't care if she got hit by a truck infront of my eyes. I wouldn't be affected in any way at all. I would just go to Dominos and get some pizza and track global markets on my phone.

I don't do second chances. I don't trust clients. I don't let people cross me. I've learned to become very stern and dominant. I'm great at what I do. I secure bids from commercial clients when my competitors are 20 years older than me with 15 years experience in senior consultancy.

My problem isn't finding sloots. I have the confidence and charisma to chat to women short term and impress them. It's just keeping them around for a relationship long term. It's letting them see the real me i.e. the miscer who drops lingo with his boys. You can "fake it until you make it" with one night stands, but you can't with girls you want to wife...

I don't have issues with confidence. I've said that numerous times. Read some of my past threads or post 82.

I have a problem of:

1) I don't know where to find wife-material girls

2) I don't know how to be less misc/less myself/more normal around them - I don't do chit to be a social conformist like have IG and know about the life of the kardashians and all that crap. My interests aren't shopping and netflix and chocolate eating

3) I don't know how to not lose hope on all women after "sloots" present themselves as really easy to me; what makes me think girls who are GF material won't turn into this?

4) I have trust issues, major ones.

If you have all that cash, you would be better off going to some PUA bootcamps or pretty much any kind of bootcamp that would help boost your social skills.

I have a problem of:

1) I don't know where to find wife-material girls

2) I don't know how to be less misc/less myself/more normal around them - I don't do chit to be a social conformist like have IG and know about the life of the kardashians and all that crap. My interests aren't shopping and netflix and chocolate eating

3) I don't know how to not lose hope on all women after "sloots" present themselves as really easy to me; what makes me think girls who are GF material won't turn into this?

4) I have trust issues, major ones.
In response:

1) Don't look or try so hard! Do you go to church? (not religious per se, so ok, ... do you know nice girls in anyway?) Like we are out there, we babysit, we work as baristas, we go to college. Just don't look for us where we aren't. Don't look for us slooting it up and then be mad when you find us slooting.

2) Just be yourself. Stop trying so hard. I could care less about kardashians and shopping. WE are everywhere. Ever go to a library, or talk to us when we are working at a normal job?

3) Don't lose hope in ALL of us just becuase you know a few sloots. I think actually that most of us are not sloots, even if we have had a boyfriend or two, stop judging. If you are only looking for a virgin, then why are you trying so hard to not be a virgin?

4) Yes clearly, read my last points. Good luck. We are not all out to get you.

Lol bro, I legit wouldn't regret much if I died today (srs). Let alone in 15 years when I had racked up a credit bill, made the most of life, enjoyed it to the core, and died after maximising it...

Honestly you're probably right.

But I don't have time to go see a specialist. I wouldn't even know where to start. I can't see my GP because he's a family doctor...

I would try to at least talk to someone..or get a valid second opinion on your situation before going full YOLO.


That being said..I am in the same situation. Income of 105,000 a year before age 30, likely to get promoted to 120,00 by next year. I don't mind my job - I get to travel/work with cool technology etc, so I have no qualms with working during the week. no need save a ton of money to stop working at age 40.

Right now I set aside a crap ton of my income for retirement..but I am thinking..why? What's the point? Why pay off my mortgage faster and life frugally now? I have failed to come even close to finding someone in the past 8 years.

If you have family/wife/etc you have something to save for. Your retirement together. a cabin to enjoy each other. Kids activities/college/etc. If you don't, you are just wasting your prime years of your life for nothing.

I recently dropped my 401k/ROTH to max 6% for the company match, and left it at that. Will have 20,000 in savings/bonds by end of august so I will have a good emergency fund. I was living off of ~1,500 a month after all fixed expenses, which is enough for me. But if I drop my retirement I can life off of ~3,000 a month after all fixed expenses, while putting in a steady 6% in retirement and ~100 a month into savings/bonds. Keep it at that and enjoy 3,000 dollars a month to just enjoy my youth while I can. 100 bucks a day. BRB go to nice steakhouse on a tues. BRB take random trip to mexico over the weekend. BRB get nice 75+" inch flat screen. Just whatever I want as long as I keep my spending within 100 dollars a day. When my income rises to 120,000 it will be around 130 dollars a day.



Recently bought a Sous Vide Precision Cooker and some prime ribeyes to cook over my grill this week. I call it "Laying Down and Rotting" in style. (srs)

Also...like other posters have said I would recommend spending your money more on experiences than things. the novely does wear off...TRUST ME. You can spin this whole thing off as positive. Create a list of chit you always wanted to do, or try, or experience and start knocking stuff off, that is what I plan to do.

In the end...it almost sounds better than settling down with a wife and 3 kids nagging you every day. maybe it is a blessing in disguise.

Lol I'm not taking any of this shyt seriously. There's no way.
How to stay MOTIVATED: Take it one day at a time, surround yourself with positivity, create a vision board, make S.M.A.R.T. goals, reward yourself, BELIEVE in yourself, acknowledge your positive attributes, recognize your progress, visualize accomplishing your goals, be kind to yourself, and above all - DON'T COMPARE yourself to others.
