the pursuit of knowledge
the love for science

I watch anime.
I get high.
I walk around the country side, (one of the reasons I have no friends, I live in the middle of fucking nowhere)
Internet.
Various physical activities.

most of the above simply occupies my day, purposely leaving no time for people.

I joined a dating site. Starting doing aerobic exercise every morning, lost 20 pounds and got some pussy. Fat and not that good looking pussy, but pussy none the same. Then as I got better looking. I got better looking women, also experience from previous girls, so I was good in bed. I am currently dating a decent looking gal, who is sweet to me and I'm relatively happy.

Try doing the same thing, it's pretty fucking easy.
Replace females with males as nessicary, tada!

Anal masturbation.

Music

Bastermation
Pursuing little goals like growing fruit and cooking.
Songwriting
Etc

I go to college. I can not really make friends there, as I'm the weird guy from Eastern Europe, with a funny accent, and a metalhead, but those 15 hours are the best of my week. I can be witty in classes, more clever than most, actualy talk to people...

I haven't gone out to have fun in over 5 months. I feel so miserable.

Also, books.

This guy has it right.

I have friends and a girlfriend but they all live in the city so I don't see them as much as I should.

I have a couple of friends here, they mostly just like getting pissed and walking around for hours though, it's fun when you're with people who can spark something interesting.

Knowledge is the only thing that keeps me living to be honest, being in pursuit of something, I need it to keep me busy and keep me feeling alive.

I work at a retail chain, live with my girlfriend in a one bedroom apartment, have a few close freinds, smoke weed, drink occasionally, have over 1200 dollars saved after three months and that increases every two weeks.

I play Earthbound, Lyle in Cube Sector and Masters of the Ur Quan (thanks to the freeware game thread /r9k/ had a couple months ago)

I play bass occasionally, though I haven't played with another musician in a long time, unfortunately.

/r9k/, stumble and just recently trying to figure out what thisismymilwaukee.com is all about along with the rest of the folks on ARG.

I abuse the fuck out of my Netflix account. I watch, on average, three or four movies a week.

Earthbound makes you feel good.

Also:
Cigarettes
I hang out with my cousin. Barely counts as friends, but we have fun. I have friends but nobody really gives enough of a shit to call.

>>2419888
What do I use to replace it? Writing. :)

I was gonna read some Shakespeare, but instead I spent the entire day on 4chan. After spending an hour or so hovering around my mom cleaning, that is.

Hmm... I watch a lot of TV. I think I have agorophobia, or what ever that phobia is when you're afraid to go outside.

I'll be getting a dog soon. Hopefully, it'll give me the incentive to get out and start running so I can tone up after a year of sitting around doing nothing. I have only a few--but enough--friends to keep me from becoming a complete recluse, but with them, it's hard to meet new people because we don't do much when we get together besides sitting around and gaming.

Failing that, I have my vidya, anime, and job to fill in those lonely hours.

Everyone is probably going to call me a faggot for this, but I spend time with my family to make up for it. When I get really lonely, I can usually spend time with my stepdad who loves to talk. My mom takes me out to eat every Friday and I really enjoy it. Also, 20 year old college student with no friends.

Deal with it? It doesn't bother me.

I spend my time reading, writing and gaming, if that's what you're asking.

What the hell is so goddamn difficult about interacting with other people?

>>2419998
Earthbound makes me feel fantastic. It's what I use to take my mind off of the fact that I only have an hour before work.

God I love that game. I just destroyed the MANI MANI statue and got out of Moonside.

I have various online friends I talk to semi-regularly. That helps.

Otherwise, I don't, and just try (and fail) to focus on getting out of my shitty situation so I can be more social.

On the contrary, I'm pretty much the coolest guy ever and I have a lot of friends who I talk to on a regular basis. Granted, I still spend most of my time at home on the computer. Never had a girlfriend despite a handful of girls who have told me that they are attracted to me. I'm in the process of reeling in a cute Arab girl, so I can have someone to appreciate my utter wit (also so I can touch her boobies). But when I'm not preoccupied with girls I typically am in an altered state of mind, via drugs. I practice escapism very heavily. I read books, listen to music, and watch movies very often.

I have a very important penis.

Well, I try some things like
guitar-oh wait this would be so much more fun if i had friends to form a band with

video games-oh wait this would be so much more fun if i had friends who like the same games i do

music- oh wait this would be so much more fun if i had friends i could talk about music with

I has a few friends. Mostly, being alone doesn't bother me nearly as much as it used to (used to really depress me), but I have people I can see if I get bored on my own. Otherwise I just drink, work, read, or internets. I usually prefer being alone, since it doesn't cost anything, and I don't have to focus on being entertaining.

oh, forgot about masturbation. Regular, occasionally anal, need to have a wank before I can start the day a lot of the time.

I love me some vidya.

Sometimes you don't realise how great solitude is when you're hanging with a bunch of people and getting pretty pissed off.

>>2420073
Oh yea, I forgot to mention I'm supposed to be reading Shakespeare so me and my parents can talk about it (read "arguing with each other while praising everything I say despite me being too afraid to say anything I think might be confrontational in a not-purely-logic-based way; my mom always 'wins', by the way, and looks to me to back her up"). I love being around them and they're both wonderful parents and wonderful people but the problem is it can very often get even more depressing than being alone. Especially when talking about philosophically-heavy works (sibling died not-all-that-long ago).

>>2420157

I wish I could have ever posted that on R9k

Listen to a shitload of music

Read books

Play vidya

Watch the occasional movie/tv

Wank

This is my life

I live with friends, see a lot of concerts, have colleagues, shit's fun. Wouldn't mind having some female friends though, I kinda miss that, girls are fun.

internet.
i have a few close online friends i talk to.. so i guess that keeps me sane.
video games..
and.. that's pretty much it.
this has been getting me down a lot lately though.

I don't really get lonely, and aside form maybe wishing I had a very causal fuck buddy I really enjoy being alone quite a bit

I get bored and depressed at times, but lack of socialization isn't really the cause and it never feels like the solution either, in fact when I am depressed or bored I feel less like being around people than I do normally.

My time is mostly spread between books, movies, school work, internet, masturbation and video games. The only one of those that is a replacement for socialization is the internet I guess and I spend a shit load of time on the internet, so I guess that is my social outlet, also occasionally getting together with my family for dinner or major holidays.

Vidya games. Usually Valve stuff.

that's basically me. I get that feeling of boredom and depression, but never loneliness. Just, if you don't distract yourself enough you start to remember how empty your life is, and it's not just that, but the fact that I CANT THINK OF A SINGLE THING I WANT IN IT. Nothing tangible exists that will fill the void.

Maybe this would spark an interest... http://www.crimethinc.com/

The grass is always greener for me. When I notice I've been spending a lot of time around people, I fantasize about happily spending time alone. When I notice I've been spending time alone a lot, I fantasize about happily being around other people. I end up alone 99% of the time because it's easier/less anxiety-inducing.

Half-arsedly look for a job,
read books from library or Amazon,
walk around my city to not feel physically alone,
vidya, usually in bursts,
wikipedia/youtube/4chan/interbutt,
fap.

I weep.

I talk to people on the internet like on TF2Chan and shit, but I get banned for saything something "wrong" or whatever, and then I feel like I'm ostracized online just like I am in real life and I cut myself and cry myself to sleep.

I plan to kill myself on Christmas Eve.

So, really, I don't cope with my ineptness at all, I just live a cycle of continuously fucking up until I die.

Fuck.

OK, at this point it's serious business. Get help immediately.

1800-SUICIDE.

I'm always either doing homework or putting off doing homework.
