They do all the ****ty jobs, Henry, so you should be grateful they exist.

Vantek,

Was it before or after your friends accidentally lit your balls on fire that you decided you were largely asexual?

I like the way I'm just expected to hit the roof over the stuff people say on the Internet as a matter of course, now. **** YOU FOR THINKING YOU KNOW ME ;ASDKGHL;DSHG;DSLAKGH;DSALGHDSKLGH;DSLAKGHKLDSAGH; LDSKAHG;KLDSAGHDKL;SGHFDSKL;GH;ALDSKHGLK;DSAGHDSAK L;GHSAKL;GHAS;GDSKL;AHG;

My vote is repressed homosexual feelings. Second vote is lol, you'll grow out of it.

yeah, i'd be a lot more willing to take op and vantek at face value if they were 35 and had been perfectly happy living as friendless virgins for the last 15 years or so. as it is, they're both what, 20? yeah, they've got life figured out.

I think RB is older.

I'm not asexual, I'm strongly introverted and asocial.

Dunno man, you could say I'll grow out of it if I was 13... But 20 is quite the made person. Also, with time I have only grown more and more asocial, so we'd have to see quite a swong to reverse it. Anyway meh, it's not like I make a point to not want to grow out of it. Maybe you're right. Let's hope so, even?

I thought I was bisexual up to a few years ago (sex=multiplayer masturbation). Turned out to be wishful thinking.

With rare exception, this is just not true at all.

In situations like this though at the early to mid-20s you are committed for life. It is not like after being socially screwed up you can just flip a switch and become normal at 28. If you don't learn how to socialize when you are in your late teens or early 20s you'll never be normal.

That, too.

I'm 25, and I never said or implied that I've "got life figured out." It's one thing if you want to critcize something I said, but don't just make things up.

Is there some research you can link to back this up? Or is that just pseudo psychology pulled out of your ass because it sounds like a prudent observation?

I totally agree with Henry on that point. It just seems really obvious.

His point is obvious, but there's a pretty big gulf between "20" and "early to mid-20s". At 20, if you're in school, there will still be plenty of forced interactions through classes and even just having to go out which may allow an individual to pull out of the spiral.

Sure, if you've dropped out or are otherwise on your own, 3924875-tabling or playing WoW 24/7 or whatnot, then you're probably hosed, but that would be the case no matter what your age is.

I do wonder what the degree of correlation is between this behavior and being a poker player (not even necessarily a successful one). I've probably played less than 500 hours live in my lifetime and it seems I've encountered a disproportionately high number of people whose social skills would tend towards the left side of the distribution.

I don't know, I've changed a lot since I was 20 and I'm only 22.

I've changed very little since the age of 14. Only started avoiding all my old buddies and slowly grew more and more asocial.

I think it's mostly true if for no other reason than people's expectations of you rise as you age, and past a certain point, people, particularly female people, just aren't going to give you a chance.

I don't understand this at all. You say you have no interest in sex, but you thought you were bisexual? How does one think they're bisexual without having a sexual attraction towards men?

I read the first paragraph, so basically you realized you were gay at an early age. cool.

...

I think you might be confusing me with RB. I never said I have no interest in sex, just that I will not make much of an effort to chase it. Given that I have zero social life I would have to make a huge effort, basically change my whole lifestyle. No thanks.

I thought my lack of sexual attraction towards men was caused by stupid social rules, and I was hoping all would be gay and fine if I only thwarted them rules. Well, I thwarted them rules but turned out men just don't do the trick for me =( I might still probably suck a dick or so, but it would be more of a science project or a favor than something that I would enjoy sexually.

Actually you know what... Wow guys, I might be a bit gay after all =D Thank you OOT, for helping me find the dicksucker in me.

I read bits and parts of this thread and have come to a very reasonable conclusion: women are the superior sex since they're way better socially. God damn.

You never hear women talk like this, or maybe they're on other forums making these kind of rants... "I'm antisocial and have no friends, I don't like sex, I don't like cute fuzzy animals, kids and parents are ******s, I could be asexual or bisexual or trisexual or something in between. I don't even like Real Dolls!" (Trust me, you will when they get more programmatic and robotic and say things like "Hey, let's stop off at the outlet mall on our way back!" or "No more nerd talk, we're going to the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale! I need to strategize!!" The future is just right around the corner...)

This is the dumbest thing I've read in quite some time.

Hahahahaha.

Are you that chick that has a crush on durrrr?

Well done in any case.

Here's a bit of fun information for you:

If by "better socially" you mean "shameless and more skilled at gaining other people's attention by making them feel sorry for you", I guess you're right.

Ron are you a virgin also or just never had a girlfriend? Just curious.

Vantek, you need to get a good hooker and than see how you feel about sex with other people. It would be better if it was a girl (or guy) you cared about and cared about you but, that doesnt seem like a real possibility at this point and the sooner the better, so hooker is your best option.

Also, do you guys have any deep meaningful relationships at all? With parents or siblings for example?

WTF man. Hookers are gross, dumb and diseased. I would rather my hand, thankyouverymuch.

I have no deep meaningful relationships with anyone. I'm not sure I am even capable of deep meaningful relationships. What the heck is that supposed to mean, deep and meaningful?
