Some Thoughts

[Mysterious ManParticipant 337]

I’ve been thinking about the world a lot lately, and I have been reflecting on both my past and present.

Honestly, it’s gotten to the point where making friends has become harder with each passing day since our country (U.S.A.) has gone to Hell. I’ve never had any real friends throughout the time I was rotting in the failed school system. People didn’t care about me. They only pretended to care just to get social brownie points from their peers and friends. I was yelled at the bitch of a Dean in the 6th Grade because I didn’t care about school and forgot to do my project. She even yelled at me when I couldn’t hear someone asking me to scoot over. I never got the major part in a play in chorus; only the role of a minor character who couldn’t even speak. I can’t remember the last time I was respected by my classmates. I tried to be kind to them, but they ignored me. I would always sit alone, and no one would come to visit me. I wanted to kill myself and shoot everyone as well. It got to the point where I wanted to run away from home and establish myself in a far away country, never having to deal with humans before, living as a monk. I would bang my head against the wall and come close to cutting myself. I even found my father’s pistol and thought about blowing my brains out several times. I tried to go to two therapists, but they just sided with my mom and offered me no advice. I was forcibly medicated by my mother, yet all it did was made have bouts of schizophrenia.

It seems as if I can’t make friends, and it isn’t for a lack of trying. People are f~~~ing stupid nowadays; it seems as if everyone is just chasing money and power. I can’t tell who is just using people for their own delusions about life, or just trying to I’ve yet to meet someone who hasn’t berated me or ignored me in some way. Most people are too stupid to discuss something meaningful or even seek out knowledge. I’ve never had a meaningful conversation with anyone who wasn’t my mother and father. Hell, even the adults I chose with wasn’t insightful in the least. I’ve yet to meet any kids who have some kind of intellect or meaningful conversation that wasn’t just them parroting what they heard from the media. I don’t know if it’s any better in Europe or Asia.

It should be noted that everyone has told me I’m brilliant and intelligent, although I’ve never had my IQ tested officially. I was tested for giftedness twice, but never got in, even though I was taking the hardest classes.

I’d like to know if you guys have had any meaningful experiences to share, or if you’ve felt the same way.

I am glad I am not the only one that notices this.

I deal with people every day that consider concern for others, kindness, and being charitable to be insulting and demeaning.

To paraphrase a Tropic Thunder meme: “The world has gone passed full retard and straight to potato.”

Even Terrence Popp believes that the world is “stupid to the square root”. (Starts 20 seconds into the video. Terrence Popp is a fount of memes.)

Good insight, blade.

Most people have ALWAYS been stupid,brothers,it’s just that now we have the interconnection of the ‘net to show us just how MANY stupid,f~~~ed up,hurting units there really are out there.

Lifes a bitch,but you don't have to marry one!

[Mysterious ManParticipant 337]

No time for old friends, mangina and suck me into a kid birthday party.

Raging guitar now and loving it.

End the need for social validation.

Happiness follows.

Thanks, CS.

I tend to give most people a break.
What we are seeing in most guys is how they are dealing with stress of life, work, marriage, all the day to day living s~~~ someone has to deal with.

I once traveled with a group of people for three weeks. After 2 weeks everyone was a different person, myself too I guess. Two weeks away from work, wives, s~~~, changed people. Guys I thought might be assholes turned out to be really good people.
Two weeks away from the s~~~(day to day society), a couple beers in em and everyone was real.

Then again, some people are just assholes.

The same as you – almost word for word, It’s uncanny – I could be looking at something I wrote. You are not alone.

Having a high IQ is both a blessing and a curse. That is a fundamental issue. Others instinctively know I am different and that is it. At times I need to ‘dumb down’ so people don’t get too uncomfortable.

Also I believe in nice and do not have the killer instinct. If I did I could screw a lot of people over for money legally. I am told I have the ability.

There are no easy answers. But that is the price I pay for what I am. I only self-validate on things I believe in. I left peer approval and social acceptance behind a long long time ago. That’s about it.

I hope this gives you some relief.

GOOD LORD YES!

@MM, you are not alone brother. As time passes, you will find others like yourself. I am hoping you are finding some of those others here. Kindness and forgiveness are virtues of the highest order. We are men, we all make mistakes. We all learn how to deal with this planet at our own pace.

Your intelligence will not automatically place you ahead in a world full of potatoes. Sometimes you are going to have to think like a potatoe to understand them. To operate comfortably around them. Social skills are learned by being social.

Matthew: 5. 3. Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. 6. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. 7. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. 8. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 9. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 10. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

The Master already knew the game is rigged.He didn’t put a timestamp on those words. He knew some people would be uncomfortable with the bulls~~~, and seek the Truth. Keep your chin up, you’re definately not alone.

The smarter you are, the more f~~~ed you are. I sometimes wish I had been born stupid. Ignorance (or in this case, stupidity) really is bliss. I’ve just learned to worry about my own problems and let the world go to hell around me. I’m waaaaaay outnumbered by stupid people and there’s no reaching them. They’re f~~~ing themselves (and unfortunately f~~~ing me in the process), but unfortunately they’re too stupid to see it, and there’s nothing I can do on my own to control my own destiny. It’s really depressing.

I would not agree to that. Men who are below a certain level of ‘smart’ (no reflection on them in any way) are at the mercy of the system. There are different kinds of smart right here on this site – we need all kinds. Do you really want to be on a MGTOW site with no thinkers? If you look at what we do here it is 99% thinking.

There are no absolutes in life – for all the shortcomings being smart may have – the alternative would be impossible to live with.

That is true. Most people do have a tendency to reveal their true personalities if you give them enough time.

Thanks, brother. Just needed to vent a bit. I’ve never had my IQ officially tested (hope to within the next few months), though I have become more willing to speak my mind and be honest about how I truly feel about things. Before, I would try to censor myself, but I don’t feel an obligation to control my words or voice my concerns.

Thank you very much for that, JFS. Hopefully I can find more friends here.

I think it is very difficult for smart people to have friends. Find happiness in something else.
