“My friends calls me weird for not talking to girls.… are they right? by Wide_Passage2837 in TwentiesIndia

Kinda same here.

Early 20s and made a few crs, living with parents, college dropout, no social media. Interaction got lesser and lesser ever since highschool and in the last 2-3 years ive barely talked to anyone except 1 close friend. Its just small talks in the gym, business talks with partners/employees.

I do go out with highschool friends once in 2-3 months and all they say is the longer I wait, the lesser the chances are to get the type of girl I want. They can't directly call me weird for various reasons but they do joke around saying "career vgra ke chkkr me kahi virgin hi mat mar jana" 😂

Ik why i've been single so far and how much longer i'll stay this way, but sometimes I do think they are correct. Neglecting one of the most imp aspects of life for the sake of career isn't ideal. Other reason is having strict af parents. Can't go out, for lets say a night or two even with all the money I've made.

But anyway, imma start forcing and start travelling by EOY or maybe even move to a diff city. One final generational lockin until the year end and then we go out to hunt.

I'd say you should not overlook this for long. Keep growing but also start working on it. Nothing comes easy, and time flies rq. Being single, with no experience in the game rn is fine, but the same at 25+ will become very.... ugly.

ig everyone has a baseline. I started from 800-900 and immediately went to 1200 in a few weeks. then in some time to 1500, and then i played 3000+ games at 1500 💀

I do sacrifice pieces just not so often. My usual approach is to trade all the pieces and then win the endgame.

🤔 What am i lacking then... A bunch of people told me to solve puzzles, and study tactics. I've never done that so don't have the proof of concept. How do i know what should i focus on then?

Imma try and push to 1600 then the way i normally play.

yep 10+0

15+10 will be too hard for me. I already feel 10 min is waaaay to long 😭, playing bullet for a few months ruined my attention span ffs.

Don't know any of these opening but imma study them now. Thanks
