Serious Did any 28+ oldcels legit spend all of their 20s (prime) rotting in basement?

[hunchback]

I got my first full time job a few months before my 21st birthday. Ive been slaving away 40-50 hours a week since.
It was a entry level job with a high turn over rate- meaning most of my coworkers were older (30+) unfriendly people, tired, resentful and short tempered. Many single mothers too. I met some cool people but none of them would stay longer than 2 or 3 months, so I never made any friends. I had to work 6 days a week too and i was tired all the time.

Every year i would come up with all these plans and projects stuff that i wanted to do... Due to lack of energy and free time i could never accomplish anything. I just kept working, day after day, year after year, going to work in the morning, and then back to my mom's. Sundays (my only day off) i would take a long nap and recover.

Things got a little easier when i was 25. The company offered me a better position, working 5 days a week, longer paid vacations, plus other benefits. They also let me work from home, because of my back problems. Not much has changed though. I have more work to do so i'm just as tired as before.

I think i should have stayed a neet. I don't enjoy living like this and i don't think i can keep going for much longer.

 

[TheRealChincel]

I can't believe it. I can't believe you really spent ages 18 - 28 rotting alone, that you didn't even have some memories of going out drinking with friends or something, and at least trying some stuff.

Oh, I approached women hundreds of times. Friends? No, I never had an interest in those. I’m a schizoid so a lot of “normal” interests never applied to me.

 

[Edantez]

Story of my life, man.

 

[Americanpsycho]

I am 20. I like to travel and i have been to a lot of countries mainly alone. I live alone, and I spent my time in three different cities. HOWEVER, i have virtually non existent social life, and i am lonely. Does it count?

 

[Deleted member 236]

No, I spent it rotting in the attic.

Almost literally never left. Lost a part time wage slave job @ 21. Never worked again. Zero friends, KHHHHHHHDV. Turned 32 yesterday.

 

[NotQuiteChadLite]

Rotting since 2006 reporting in

 

[BrokenRotten]

but have you rotted there since you were 18?

Since before I was 18.

 

[Pasteleiro]

How old are you OP and are you a virgin?

 

[th62eathhts2]

25, been rotting since 19. i don't see any end to this. i only leave the house for groceries.

 

[blackcel]

No, I actually put myself out there and tried to live a fulfilling life. My brother, on the other hand, spent his entire 20s (and the first few years of his 30s) doing absolutely nothing with his life except playing video games, watching television shows, and going online.

lemme guess, he had at least one gf or isn't a virgin

 

[The End]

I'm in my mid-thirties, and yeh I had a very, very, very miserable late teens and twenties. And thirties so far.

I've tried my best, but it's just - not - good - enough. I held onto the "if you work hard you can achieve anything" bullshit way past when it was reasonable. But even though I've known for years my life will only get worse I still seethe with resentment.

I think about my wasted youth a lot. But you know what? Even if I had to do it all over again it would play out exactly the same. Failure and depression.

 

[canino1997]

21 here rotted for years

 

[Letting Go]

lemme guess, he had at least one gf or isn't a virgin

He's a virgin in his 30s, but he did have an online girlfriend in the mid-2000s (meaning that even he has had more success with woman than I've had).

 

[blackcel]

Online girlfriends don't count. I guess inceldom is in your genes.

 

[Letting Go]

Online girlfriends don't count. I guess inceldom is in your genes.

It's fairly safe to say that's the case, as my brother and I have gone nearly 70 combined years without attracting anyone IRL.

My mother must really be regretting her shitty mating decisions that resulted in our lifelong inceldom. Because she won't be having any grandchildren like her older sister who's blessed with a new one every few years.

 

[Narazz]

i had a pretty weird situation. i lived in the country and my folks wouldnt get me a car so i could get work. ended up just playing a lot of everquest on dial up. best time of my live. i think if i worked then i'd be a lot more depressed now. i dont really have the skills to make it in the slave wage market. took me legit 40ish interviews just to land something in min wage. now working something a bit better but i dont consider it a career. just have to find something like janitor to not deal with people.

Oh dear god

maybe you become a Taxi Driver? Not hard to understand how that is your fave film

 

[Schizoidcel]

Yes, I have a PhD in rotting.

I cant' even drive hahahhaha

 

[Letmego]

Seriously? Did any guy here actually do this?
This would be the very worst.

I almost did, but managed to get a few good years in, from when I was 26.

To some degree yes, yes i did in my apartment. But i have a couple years of my 20s left and i have been trying to make the most of it

 

[BasedGod1]

I'm only 24 but I hope to rope before hitting 30 so six years more to rot.

I'm one of the few actually entitled to reply to this post.

No, I spent my 20's during the 90's, which was before the internet (went online in 1998), which meant I had a normal young adulthood just like everyone else in my generation. I had friends, went to parties, was regularly drunk and naturally met lots of girls in the process, mostly the gf's of my pals. They just weren't interested in me, which I already knew about, so I didn't hit on them either.

 

[Getlooksordie]

I approached over 1000 women in bars and clubs from 16-29 years old.

All I got from it was clinical depression, PTSD, BDD, social anxiety and I´m suicidal literally every second of the day. Women completely ruined my life and stole my youth. The older I get the worse I feel.

 

[oldcel75]

At age 18 I went to the military for 4 years, became officer in the IDF. At age 22 went to college while being officer in reserve. Than workcelling and militarycelling (about 1 month a year). No friends, I'm a loner. Why do I went to a combat unit? It's mandatory, but I got tons of lifefuel from legally killing tall chads.

 

[IncelmaBinHardon]

No. I guess I'm what you might call a positive incel. I knew from a young age that I wasn't the same as most guys and things were never going to be the same for me as it was for 'everyone' else. But I threw myself into numerous interests/copes and have, it has to be said, enjoyed my life. Those who think inceldom is automatically a tortured and abject existence of suffering and pain need to think again, IMHO.

In fact, as I've got older I've realized that inceldom actually has a lot going for it. Especially the bit where you're not lumbered with some fat, aging, stretch marked, increasingly repulsive foid and a load of kids who do nothing but drain your will to live.

 

[Grotesque]

I spent most of my 20s wageslaving and thinking that I was moving forward with life...

 

[_incelinside]

probably rotted since 9 or 10 years old

 

[SoCalSuifuel]

male prime is 16-24

Lmao, just turned 24.

I am 20. I like to travel and i have been to a lot of countries mainly alone. I live alone, and I spent my time in three different cities. HOWEVER, i have virtually non existent social life, and i am lonely. Does it count?

20 and can afford to travel? Your life sounds fucking great. How'd you end up here?

 

[virgin4life]

Nearly 40 and yes I spent half my life rotting in a basement. It doesn't matter though. Life is meaningless.

 

[CaptainCuck]

My prime years were actually 18-20, since I lost all of my hair and nails at 21 and have looked like a freak ever since. I'm 29 now. I also don't rot in my basement (don't have one) since I have a 9 to 5 job and I do go out to try and socialise every now and then.

I was moderately social during my teens and went to a few parties. I was also friends with a lot of girls (none were interested in me though - got rejected numerous times too).

After my hair and nails fell out, my friends all immediately dumped me due to my inhuman ugliness and my family treated me like an outcast. This caused my self esteem to fall into the gutter.

I ended up getting an office job with decent pay and have lived on my own ever since. Still a KHHV. I have tried some of the dating methods over the years with zero success (PUA, Tinder, etc).

Brutal, looks are everything. Same thing happened to me only it was when I was way younger and when I got bad acne. I was a freak among the subhuman freaks. At least I discovered puahate and realized that good social skills just means anything a tall guy or a guy with an attractive face says or does, so I stopped wasting my time putting my self out there.

Acne is the worst (I never got it but I feel really bad for those who do). Were you able to treat it?

Oded on accutane to try to at least have one happy memory instead of nothing but misery and pain when I was a teenager, but no, it still didn't get rid of it. Acne finally started clearing up now, but have acne scars and nose is filled with blackheads. I couldn't do anything, having bad acne and other terrible genetics made me be a perma rotter when I was young. The average 14 year old has more life experience than me and I will forever be stunted. It's over.

 

[Nunu]

yes and wage slaving.

Damn I'm sorry to hear that. There's no treatment for my condition either.

Having garbage genes is hell.

 

[happiless]

not really in the basement, but primarily wageslaved and didn't invest much in women

I had one rejection at 22, 24, 25, 26 - all of them were from women at work/social circle - i don't count the teens

but i wasn't really chasing women until 27 when i really started trying hard to find girls

invested almost 2 years in online dating with basically zero practical success - regret every second of it

i was never really swelling in a basement, but i wasn't thriving either

Only 940 approaches left

 

[FunkyMonk]

Was a NEET between 20 - 24 playing games. Did work experience during that time just to get my 'foot in the door', what a waste of time that was. People just fed me lies on everything. Got a job at 24 and still working four years later. Fuck time flies when you hit 25, heck this this whole decade has gone quick.

 

[BabyFacedIncel]

Maybe one day your liver will give up and you'll die in your sleep. The best way to go in my opinion.

Thats not what usually happens though, if someone drinks chronically enough to cause liver damage, the liver develops scar tissue and very slowly progressively dies off and during this time, you bloat like a balloon, liver cant detox toxins and it causes ammonia to go to the brain and cause mental problems, even hallucinations and you basically very slowly die, have no appetite and feel nauseated 24/7

 

[Deleted member 4760]

I'm 24 but it's WIP for now.

 

[theultimate341]

yes and wage slaving.

 

[Robtical]

That's definitely me, but at least my dick got a little bigger and I lost weight and all my acne got cleared when I turned around 30.

I like you. I'm 22 and will be graduating in 2 years. Talking to people is easy and making friends has always been easy. Women have never taking a liking to me but the more I see how relationships play out the more it seems like they aren't worth it. Look at the most important people in human history, a lot of them divorced all the time because they wouldn't let women settle them down. Keep on throttling brother.
