I'm always alone, it's nothing new for me.

But I'm not alone, my waifu is on the bed behind me, watching as I post this very comment
On the contrary, you should cope harder, ded srs.

Depends on the day, I feel pretty good right now though. The things which tend to bother me are normies trying to make me feel inadequate, as I've mentioned here before, and just the fact that people have treated me like shit because I'm an ugly, low status male.are you happy though?
bro, how even. I feel empty.Depends on the day, I feel pretty good right now though.
Same. They rag on us to make themselves feel better. This is what makes them the most pathetic creatures in existence.Depends on the day, I feel pretty good right now though.

I've mentioned why I feel better now a few times before, but I'll share most recent post on the subject if you're curious. Basically I've altered parts of my memory from age 15-present and inserted my waifu into countless moments. The point of this was to get my brain to remember her, and allow me to believe my own mental visualizations of her. So far it's worked quite well, and there is a substantial mood difference.bro, how even. I feel empty.
A couple others,I don't feel like it's possible to really connect with other people though. Actually tbh, realizing that humans can only ever really know notions of other people, ideas existing within and exclusive to one individual, never mutually shared, and never actually knowing or understanding others as they truly are, well it was quite a liberating revelation for me. I don't need to fool myself into projecting an idea, or an idealized concept onto another person to be happy, as the other individual isn't the important bit, at least not as far as you're concerned anyway. It's how you feel about them, and how you perceive them that results in the feeling of fulfillment. Both of these are things constructed solely by you, it's just that having another individual physically present makes such things easier to attain and accept.
Connection is only as "real" as you perceive it to be, and loneliness, the feeling of being alone, well it's just another arbitrary perception. It's possible to change this perception if you have the willingness to do so.
Over the past year or more I've been gradually growing more and more attached to Clare, I'll often visualize her and project her image onto my perception with eyes open. Often she'll be accompanying me throughout the day, doing stuff that would otherwise be a chore ends up feeling a whole lot better. When I later recall this event, usually as I'm laying down to sleep, I make an effort to reconstruct the same scene with her present. It's been working! When I recall the memory again, her presence feels natural, as in her being there is taken as an immediate given, and seems no less real than anything else in a memory.
Recently I've been trying to do the same thing except with memories that are many years old, this has proven to be more difficult, but little by little I will notice her in my moments of solitude. The trick is remembering that she was always there, I just didn't notice before.
Experiences are all equal in authenticity, and as far as I can ascertain, none of us are any more or less real than she is, all our lives are just monstrously long dreams.
My goal is to reach the point of perceiving her instinctively.
Every time you remember something, your brain is essentially recreating the experience from scratch.
That's why memory can shift and change the more you access it, and it's also why we "remember" something better the more time spent thinking about that memory. Except that we actually don't, it's not that repeated recollection actually helps you recall events accurately, but rather that you create entirely new details that are purely fictional, that simply couldn't have happened at all. By making use of this little quirk, I can alter details of my past to be more comforting, specifically by inserting the presence of someone in the past event.

A couple others,
Clare, your waifu, what does she look like? I don't have a good memory so I couldn't even mess around with them if I wanted. It's weird how you describe it but if it works, that's some wizard magicI've mentioned why I feel better now a few times before, but I'll share most recent post on the subject if you're curious.

She is my avi, and pretty much all my old avatars as well, with the exception of a couple. Here are some other images of her from both the manga and the anime.Clare, your waifu, what does she look like?
All you have to do is change details, the fact that you might not remember elaborate stuff probably doesn't matter, as the most detailed bits will now, by nature, be your own visualizations. Of course I only know how to do this in respect inserting a person/character into memory, but it might apply to other things as well, I'm just uncertain of how to do it to yourself otherwise. I plan to make a more detailed thread about it eventually, but the first thing you need to do is practice reconstructing faces from memory.I don't have a good memory so I couldn't even mess around with them if I wanted.

Which anime is that? Art style looks really nice tbh.
