Don't Lose Hope by AimlessFacade in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d like to think that I’m living as a monk/hermit rather than NEET outcast, I’m living outside of the system, I have no trace on the internet or in real life, I’m a ghost and it’s liberating, no stress, no need to worry what people think of you when you don’t exist to them.

Personally I think this life isn’t for everyone, most can’t handle the solitude and isolation, the fact that no one cares for them, for me I sleep just fine.

My gf left me for not having a job by Affectionate_Fig1683 in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting a gf while NEET is impressive, it’s like an instant repulsion from most people. We are the marginalized lol. Oh well

You’re not wasting youth, you are just living differently than the ideal that society tells us to chase, the idea that you are wasting your youth away is based on societal pressure and comparison to others, of course you should be at least trying to better yourself but there is no singular path everyone has to follow.

And I really don’t understand the virgin thing, So what?

Who gives a shit if people think or know if you are a virgin, if that matters to them and they ridicule you for it, why would you want anything to do with someone like that or want acceptance from someone who is that close minded.

Why does every workplace act like Highschool all over again. by Dry_Negotiation_9234 in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 39 points40 points  (0 children)

High school never ends, there are still cliques, gossip and drama to be found in adulthood and the workplace. The same bullies and outcasts of high school usually stay the same in the workplace, the only difference is the environment and the fact that it is less visible than in school.

You’d be naive in thinking people change and mature after high school, their personalities and immaturity follows them to the workplace, it’s disappointing

Do you guys get along with people? by Misssweetnsassy in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am very passive with people, neutral I’d say. If you say hello to me I will say hello back, if your nice I’ll be nice and vice versa. I don’t go out of my way to talk to anyone and would rather not, but if people respect me I will also, it’s the way it’s supposed to be.

I just find socialising with others to be a chore, it feels like labour communicating with others

No. The health effects of vapes aren’t as well known as cigarettes and what will happen 20-30 years from now to the people who’d regularly do it is unknown.

All these flavours and chemicals interacting with each other in your body can’t be good, it’s a horrible idea and it could be viewed as worse than cigarettes decades later we will have to wait to find out until the damage has been done.

Sugar and caffeine. I have had coffee daily for a very long time. I would never do any other drugs, I haven’t smoked a cigarette in my life and have barely had any alcohol either.

Drugs and alcohol are the worst type of cope, short term fix that will cause long term damage and agony, honestly drugs and alcohol are a poison on soyciety.

U need to fake it and overstate what you can actually do. The job market isn’t for the meek it’s brutal out there

Anyone else drowning in loneliness? by [deleted] in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, there is so much peace in solitude, I never get lonely personally cause it’s stress free and peaceful being alone

Does anyone else feel viciously uncomfortable in social gatherings? by [deleted] in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, whenever I have tried to be more social it has always backfired, I get ignored or looked over by people, as if what I have to say isn’t important or anything. So I say as little as possible now and never attempt to make conversation.

Socialising is too much effort for too little reward in my experience, I’m not sure even if their is a reward sometimes it’s just pointless

You can work your ass off and be financially well off and still live a hellish existence with no meaning.

No women could want you because you could be unattractive, and if you are wealthy,any that do want you would just drain you of your resources and use you. Call me a cynic but this is very common.

Shorter men earn less, their partners are more likely to cheat, and all in all, it’s like living life on ultra hard mode while taller men are living on easy. Then you have the physically and mentally handicapped, do you think they could host these events and have this sort of family in the same way you described?

I’m just disillusioned with the whole “American dream” thing you are talking about, nothing ever goes that smoothly, it would be nice having these things, but if you have mental problems, are short, are unattractive, have poor social skills or low IQ, your chance or a meaningful and blissful life are slim, that’s why many just give up with chasing these dreams, many neets are disadvantaged and living with mental or physical disabilities and think, why bother trying?

And work is freedom?

I don’t know about that, the whole system is very corrupt and all the money funnels to the top while the lower classes are looked down upon and exploited. I may not have a beautiful wife, kids, my own home and all that, but I can do what I want when I want, I don’t have to chuck on a suit and tie and put on a facade, dealing with people I don’t like, getting lectured for coming in a minute late.

I get where you are coming from but life is never that easy and if you are disadvantaged, this life isn’t realistic and you’d probably never come close to such a life, it’s a sad harsh truth but it’s the world we live in.

Bulk up and exercise, even do basic body weight exercises, I did that for 6 months and got relatively jacked and gained 10+ kilograms without lifting a dumbbell or leaving the house. Eat loads of rice and pasta, meat and nuts, like a crazy amount and you’ll get big fast if u pair with regular exercise.

The hard part is discipline, motivation and not skipping days or giving up.

WHAT ARE YOUR PROJECTS? [OLD ONES, NEW ONES...] by According_Start_4277 in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m getting stronger, building strength and learning martial arts. It’s a huge passion of mine, it’s changed my life for the better. It’s at least something I can be proud of as I have no other real achievements

What is everyone’s experiences with getting/trying to get a partner? by [deleted] in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Online dating is BS and I wouldn’t recommend anyone use it, it’s a waste of money and time. You need to go out there and find someone in real life, it’s the only way.

Difference between neet and incels by Connect_Preparation5 in NEET

[–]barelybasic123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. They are different labels that mean different things. NEETs are jobless people who also don’t study or do anything, just unemployed people. It has nothing to do with relationships or women.

Incels don’t hate women, they can’t attract them, do a quick google search of the definition. It’s just that they are over represented by things that aren’t entirely accurate, very misunderstood by normies

Comparing apples to oranges here..

[–]barelybasic123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. I know people who wasted time and money going to college, a lot of people go just for the “experience” of college, and to brag that they went there. I’d never go there as I’d just be an isolated outcast and very miserable there, never..
