I’d say I have a slither amount of hope left at 19, but I know it’ll vaporize once I hit my mid 20s
 
15-16 probably
 
It was a process.
When I had absolute 0 hope, 18
 
24 is when I stopped trying to do anything and just ldar so ill go with that
 
I can confidently say the last ember of hope was extinguished when I was 18.
 
I think it started when I first entered college, as I faced the same wariness from people that I did in high school only to a much lesser degree, and I did become moderately well-liked in my degree program for being the "smart" guy who people went to for help with their classes. However, sex and romantic relationships were a different matter as I was basically considered "damaged" and was told flat out by people that somebody like me would make things very difficult for them in terms of a potential partner.

The final nail in the coffin was when I was 29 and I tried contacting some of my old friends from when I was an undergrad when I finished my Master's. They all knew each other, and they basically implied that they had outgrown me as they were all married and one of them had a kid on the way, and that they also said that somebody like me was not what they needed in their lives anymore as I guess they had all collectively decided to "cut off the crazy person."

After that I knew that things were not going to change for me and that this was what I could look forward to from then on.

wtf, people are so evil when you’re not what they want
 
I would say 7 when I caught my mom cheating on my dad while he was at work trying to support us
 
The moment I decided to check this site out

But yeah I’ll say around 2022
 
I never had any hope to begin with tbh
 
16, that's around when my prospects came crashing
 
Jesus, what did you even think of that as a 7 year old?
i mean i couldn't fully grasp the repercussions of the whole thing but i knew it was bad and it played a major role in me going from introverted to full blown asocial around girls and eventually women and will most likely never trust them let alone share anything with them for the remainder of my life

At the very least you learnt early, so sorry about that though that is fucked up brother
 
16 is when I started to realize that things weren't going to go my way,
23 is when I accepted that is was over.
 
It's never over! Just keep trying + being confident as fuck!

I suppose people thought I was "quirky" but intelligent when I was in college as I have a semi-serious psychiatric disorder but then fast-forward a few years later, and somehow "quirky" morphed into "avoid the crazy" with these same people a few years later even though they said I didn't do anything wrong.
 

I have a birthmark on my chest because I was going to come out of the womb feet first or some shit, so they had to move me or something from my understanding.

I was not supposed to be born.
 
I lost all hope during my first year at university. That year was hell. I was bullied in the dorm where I was staying. Foids started it, ridiculing me in front of the senior students, but then everyone joined in. I had such a hard time that I ended up failing several classes and was expelled from college. Since that shitty year, everything has gone downhill.

I wanna say around 17-18.
 
probably 2021 but the last attempt i did at anything was at june 15 of this year ever since then i completely lost it all and im just existing and its been as miserable as i never could even imagine.
 
15-16, that shit abt being completely cooked if you didnt have a high school romance is real as fuck
 
15, but I knew about blackpill since I was 14, I was just in denial for an entire year.
 
I never had it in the first place
 
16 is when I got IQ and racepilled and became severely depressed, only rotting in my room, on my phone or playing videogames from time to time. And at 18 I became fully blackpilled and started losing all hope
