@@johnkyle3128 I also had zero intimate experience, but I play chatch up now and get more and more experience under my belt. Yes, I know the pain of the shame, trust me, but you need to face that shame, get into dating and try things. You have nothing left to loose, so believe in yourself and make small steps in the right direction until you built momentum. That only works if you are bold enough to face the cringe and aren't picky with the women in the beginning. You are still young, so that would be young love. Why are you comparing yourself to the timeline of others? Everyone's different. Don't get hung up on the looks-thing, improve social skill and status, thats much more important. You need to accept the height thing, it doesn't define you! There are plenty of women out there that are smaller than that, especially asians. For the face: Get your bodyfat under 12% through gym and diet, that will make your jawline pop more and make you look more masculine. If possible grow a beard.

Awesome! I'm not jacked but I applied the same philosophy when I was in my 20s. I was mostly a geeky type in school, neither a "loser" nor wildly popular, and it took some courage to try new things and meet new people. I'm not jacked but stay in shape, have a few friends and one or two hobbies. Keeping life simple, not trying to one-up all the other people on social media, not spending on things that don't please me and saving for the things that do. Being content makes you humble and confident. Having experiences makes you humble and confident, and most importantly interesting to talk to. That's what women look for in a conversation with a potential partner.

Giving up at 25? Brother I'm 24, I'm just getting started. I don't intend to give up anytime soon

[@arnold9098]

It's my 25th birthday day tomorrow, im here so grateful tbh regardless of all the ups and down( mostly downs ) in life.. change is inevitably and we are all gone make it to the "being" state... Good things are coming, im keeping faith and taking one day at a time, not fixation on others their thoughts etc just being and seeking...

[@kubasniak]

30+ time starts to tick. Unless you're pushed to, you most likely won't change. With age, we become risk averse and set in our ways.

[@sunsethollow2072]

I agree with u man I spent my whole adult like fucking around I’m 25 and I’m working really hard to be a better man. I picked up skateboarding when I was 24. Been getting into video making. I’m sober now. It took me fucking up a ton to learn I needed to change.

[@ICIshan]

I think ppl are so self conscious about age because people on social media will call you UNC at 30 and literally tell you your life is over. I turn 19 tomorrow, i know its stupid but I think as soon as I'm 20 I'll be old and time will fly by. But thats not the way to look at life, my dad is almost 50 and he still feels young to me. Just a more mature, wise with a bit less energetic version of me.

[@fantasycraft-forge]

For me, life was amazing until around 12, then turned into a nightmare until 16. After that, things got fun again, but I spent three years in three different jobs that felt like absolute hell before finally starting to work for myself. Even then, it was a better kind of "hell," but still tough. Now, at 30 (31 soon), I’m genuinely happy - working on many projects, with plenty of friends (on and off), and, for the first time in my life, I finally have money (I was always poor AF). It’s taken a lot of hard work and still does, but if you’re reading this and struggling, I totally understand. Life can be unfair and often sucks, but you can make it better. It just takes a lot of hard work. If you’re 25 and going through tough times, it’s part of the process. Struggling is how you grow, and in time, you’ll find your way.

[@mangomight7938]

A general but solid piece of advice I’d give to any guy is to consider taking up martial arts, regardless of whether you're over 25 or not. I am 28 and started training MMA at 26. You'll often find it easier to connect with other guys who have developed resilience and discipline through the practice and challenges of martial arts. These connections can have a positive impact on various aspects of your life as a man imo.

Just turned 25 and honestly not sure with life had someone then miscarriage and grandad passed who was more of a dad then car crash on 2022 and diagnosed with Melas syndrome Medical condition my license was suspended but now I’m actually doing driving lessons again then an assessment to get my license back and reason for suspension was medical problem but someone crashed into me so the reason why I am getting license back is because of better health plus with my KZbin channel I’m slowly growing wich is good and I’m doing what I like creative wise and family still sticks even if losing them always can remember and growth takes time 🙏

I only had one short experience with a girl when I was 18. We hung out for about 4 months and we were really into each other, it felt like we were soul mates. But one day while hanging out she told me she had a boyfriend. That shocked me and I've never been the same since. She ditched me. Never even got to kiss her. I haven't had friends since then and I've been through tramatic events and dealt with them mostly alone, no parents anymore, what little family is left is broken and doesn't associate. Hard to believe I'm 31 now and still never had a girlfriend. I have nothing. Makes me sick to think about how pathetic and worthless my life has been. Life has past me by and I don't see the point of living anymore.

The Problem with looksmaxxing is that it takes time and money to find and fully invest it in even the soft version and, most importantly, the type of food that you need to eat to nourish your body. 1- the process of obtaining money would be nothing short of stressful, and that negatively impacts your looks, especially when you notice you're deteriorating in real time "balding", for example. 2- Even if you finally do, it would be too late. Either you have it at your youth and have experiences that will shape you for the better or you'll play catch up forever while everyone else already moved on to different things in life.

I’m not the type of guy that has a lot of empathy but I feel bad for the folks with good hearts and work ethics who are struggling right now, I’m sick of politicians selling our fellow countrymen out to foreign countries..

Just turned 28 this year. I started to really do what I like at the age of 24. It was tough starting over again at the age of "you're supposed to have it figured out" Started this KZbin channel of mine and I'm slowly reaping the rewards. They said I was stupid to do this lol and should've chosen the easy path lol. I'm really happy on where I am right now.

[@agatastaniak7459]

Anything about "at the age of X you're supposed to have it figured out" it's probably the most common lie that each previous generation tries to sell to another generation that follows it. Fact of life is that you will ave to always improvise and in the end you will never get to feel like you have already figured it out. And the game is rigged against young people, so one more reason why younger generations are going to feel it more intensly than their parents.

I have lived in the same town in Texas my entire life and every time I fly out of state, I see the world I believe i am meant to live. I have been trying to move to LA, but feel like I have failed so much that I don’t feel confident I will survive on my own. I have been learning to invest and still fail once In a while but slowly getting better. Although it’s not the end, I try to find a way to keep hustling every day I wake up. I try to find some motivation to leave my town and everything and force myself to start a clean slate in a new environment. I will never give up my dreams, but I will acknowledge I have wasted my time in the past and not being the man I know I should be, that I will be.

Western consumer society is the most likely place young people will end up, and many won’t escape. As young adults leave a home with rules and love, respect,hopefully, and go travel to a different city, do powerful drugs, heavy smartphone usage, spend years working minimum wage jobs, getting paid to go nowhere. Finding a plan for your life while you’re trapped in a maze designed to keep you intoxicated, continuously entertained or distracted and in service to the system is a terrible environment for finding yourself and others.

Most people act like any age after 20s is too old to do anything anymore. I got out of the military at age 26 and started college. Most of my friends viewed me as getting old and would often make jokes (friendly of course). But now I’ve graduated college with zero debt, I have a six figure salary, and I live comfortably with financial freedom. All this is to say 20s should be used to set yourself up for the rest of your life. Don’t waist it partying and getting into debt. Trust me when I say having not to worry about when your next paycheck is coming makes a huge difference.

I spent my early twenties lost, struggling to find my footing. No job, no money, just constant pressure to succeed in a path others had mapped out for me. The fear of disappointing them held me back from exploring my true passions. But at 25, something shifted. I took a deep breath, broke free from expectations, and pursued my dreams. It was scary, but oh-so-liberating. Fast-forward to today: my new venture's thriving, I'm earning more than I ever thought possible, and I get to support the people I love. My family's proud, and I finally feel alive! If you're feeling stuck, know this: it's never too late to turn your life around. Don't give up! Take that leap, chase your passions, and watch your world transform.

At 30 years old my life was in the gutter and I didn't think I would live to see 33. I honest to god literally thought my life was over. not like "woe is me my angst is so bad that my life is over" but like actually over, like I was going to end it or act so recklessly that I died. I have multiple people in my immediate and close-extended family that have comitted suicide, which I have heard increases my personal risk for it. Eventually though, I could not take the pain that I was causing those around me. I have felt how much it hurt to lose someone that way, and so I made a promise to myself that I would never do that. No matter how bad things got, and believe me it got bad. I decided to make a commitment to change my life, it hasn't been easy and progress can feel slow at times. plus, I still make mistakes and "fuck-ups" that aren't always easy to navigate. but, now at the age of 33 I honestly feel like life has just begun. I don't want to hurt myself anymore, I want to be there for the world, be present so that my actions don't cause harm to myself or others. because the truth is, despite all the chaos and pain in the world at large, and the pain and trauma that still scars my internal experience, life is a beautiful gift that should be cherished every single day. (over time a scar actually becomes a part of your being, almost like an existential tattoo, it transmutes from an event to a fact about your body and life.)
