yea i agree it seems like i'll just have to deal with that sort of lonley feeling but at least it won't be for nothing.

Thank you will check it out!!!

yea after trying to figure stuff out this seems to be the best approach right now so i'm gonna give this everything i've got.

So to keep this simple after highschool i went straight into my self developement journey and this has led to long periods of me being by myself. Stayin inside and working, not talking to alot of people ect... to the point of if i am in a social situation my brain stops working and i never know what to say. As a beginner can someone recommend some effctive ways to start socializing that aren't to crazy that i can get into? Because for a long while i figured that i would never be able to get better but then i realized that i was never really trying and i now understand how important socialization really is. I'm willing to do what ever it takes. I want to be the type of person who can lead a converstion with a stranger vs someone thats afraid of talking to people. So if there's any tips on how to start plz lmk cause i'm tired of this effecting my life. So where do you think someone who's been isolated for 3-5 years and not socializing and afraid of talking to people should start?

So i'm a 23 year old male and i come from a VERY underprivelliged background which has led to many challenges. Most of my younger years were focused on mailny money and survival stuff rather than dating and relationships. I live with my parents and now i'm mainly focused on my online buisiness and building something great . I'm really just wrting the post to see if dating is really worth it or if it would make more sense to focus on my career rather than try and date the opposite sex. Especially when everyone says that relationships are one of the most meaningfull aspects of life. However i find that for me it would make much more sense to put dating to the side and focus on growing my buisiness. Even tho this leads to lots of lonliness and isolation i find that i must find ways to deal with this and since i no longer watch pornography [i'm 2 weeks clean] i use all of the built up sexual tension by practicing nofap and semen retention and direct it into my work and just try to be an overall productive person. This definetly helps but the feeling of lonliness never goes away. This led me to wonder if it is even possible to be happy single without dating and experiencing romantic relations and just focus on the work or the other way around.

As a 23 year old male this is something that i heavily struggle with and on my self improvement journey i can't seem to let go of it. This is because mainly social media shows us people achieving lots of success at really young ages and it makes me feel like i'm behind in life like crazy even tho i come from a very underprivelliged background. I try to focus on my self however i notice that my mind keeps telling me that everyone already has everything that i want and doing all of the things that i want to do like : Travelling, Dating, New Cars ect... which are things that i am unable to do at the moment. I know this probably sound stupid but i feel like if i can figure out how to deal with this effectively then it can lead to a better quality life. The thing is i have already made some slight advances in my own carreer like an online buisiness that i started made about $1000 in about a month but there's still LOADS of work to be done. So if anyone has any idea of effective ways to deal with comparing myself to others and feeling behind i'd love to hear them and maybe i can manage this problem or even put an end to it because it fees lik everytime i do something i am proud of i remember that i seen someone my age or younger on instagram that has WAYY more than i do and it makes my achievement feel pretty much worthless. This problem i feel is rly holding me back and Leo i don't know if you ever had to deal with it but if you did what methods did you use to help?

I agree i'm going to focus on my self and my business so that i can develope a sense of confidence and compitence. I know this will take a long time however i'm willing to do whatever it takes to improve, so if my 20s a gonna be me focusing on my finances and my self in general hopefully i can start to date in my 30s or late 20s

Hey everyone just wanted to say thank you for all your kind replies and will definetly use them in my self improvement journey and @Thought Art sorry i didn't know, not sure how to change it but i won't post in all caps for future posts.

So to keep this simple i'm 23 and because of my struggle with dating in real life this caused me to fall down the redpill rabbit hole. This led to me going deeper and learning about the blackpill and incel culture and this led to me consuming massive amounts of content from various creators to the point where i've been starting to believe this stuff. The thing is i don't want to be this type of person or assosiate with these people however it just feels like maybe for some people it's all real, I'm pretty sure i watched every andrew tate video there is and i feel like this type of content has led me to have a very negative view of the world. I'm making this post so hopefully you leo can make a video addressing these spaces and talking about a way to get out of it because it seems like once you get in you cant get out and others like me probably have consumed so much of this content it starts to seem real. So in the future leo plz address the black pill and suggest soulutions on how to get yourslelf out of it, because i notice how not alot of people talk about this.
