Looking back, did you show signs in your younger days that you'd end up like this?

I certainly did.

Yeah definitely. I was incel until 23, had 6-7 years of slaying, once again I am incel. Being this catastrophically unsuccessful financially and career wise is a hard one to take though.

Adults always glazed me as a kid for high IQ and perfect grades but the reality of what will make you money is extremely different.

My story is somewhat similar to yours.

I was a virgin until 20. I went through a stretch at 20-21 where I slayed to some degree (but I still didn't have sex nearly as often as most college dudes)

I then went through a brief stretch of slaying at 23. I had a monthlong affair with a married woman when I was 23. Then, shortly before my 24th birthday, some foid followed me home on public transportation, got naked, and fucked me :LOL:

Ever since then, I've only had free sex once (a few months before my 30th birthday)

I'm currently 33.

Like you, I also had a high IQ and good grades as a kid. Yet I have nothing to show for it. Hell, some dude who got expelled from my middle school for arson is more successful than me now (he owns a business and has a hot wife)

Funny story about Indian men American companies hire for cheap labor.

Some Indian man who was here on a temp visa (STEM job) roped me into hanging out with him one weekend. He then had me act as his wingman when he spotted a foid he liked the looks of. His strategy backfired on him. The foid ended up preferring me. The foid gave him a ride home (and insisted on having me accompany her on the ride, so as to make sure the Indian didn't rape her). She then went out to dinner with me.

I never fucked her though (and the foid ended up hating me less than a week later)

I find the confidence of Indian men fucking disgusting. He probably thought he mogged you as well.

What descended you? Or did you just drown in the rising tide of standards like I did?

After we had a short discussion with the foid, she went to put her dog in her apartment (she was with her dog when we approached her). Even the dog preferred me over the Indian by the way.

When she went to put her dog in her apartment, the Indian told me if she fucks both of us, he gets to fuck her first, because approaching her was his idea.

I find it absolutely shocking she came back after putting her dog in her apartment. I totally thought the Indian scared her away. But no, she came back, the 3 of us talked a bit more, then that was when she gave him a ride home.

Once we finally got rid of him, she told me there's no chance she'll ever fuck him :LOL:. She also admitted to me the only reason she came back after putting her dog in her apartment was because she wanted to separate me from him for my own sake (nice move on her part); that was why she concocted a strategy that would result in her and I having some alone time.

Next, to answer your question of what descended me: A combination of factors.

The rising tide of standards definitely played a role. Craigslist shutting down the casual encounters section played a role too (You see, even when I slayed in college, I was never the type who could fuck a college girl I met organically. I relied on Craigslist to meet sex partners. Oh yeah, and I also had one partner from a now-defunct website called datehookup when I was in college)

My looks are fading too. I'm still above-average, yet not to the same degree I was in my early 20s. I'm currently somewhere between a 6 and 7. In my early 20s, on the other hand, I was solidly in the 7s.

Aha I remember Craigslist casual encounters, two of my slays are from that but the majority are from Tinder, did you just not ever try on any of the new generation apps?

What’s your plan now? For my part I’m going to get my surgeries just to finally end the genetic curse that ruined my life - but understanding that can’t make up for lost time, the only thing to do after that is chase early retirement on an ultra-minimalist lifestyle.

I have a profile on Tinder and Feeld. Nothing has come of it.

I also had a FetLife account. All I got from FetLife was some foid coming to my place to pee in front of me for $300.

I don't really have a plan. Now that I have the money to escortcel (something I lacked the money for when I was in college), I'm content to fuck escorts.

My tinder bio was “why get tied down when you could get tied up” and got me a lot of submissive girls. If you’ve seen someone using that - I invented it.

I suspect my IQ is actually the prime contributor to my slay count in that I was able to find very effective ways to game the app to compensate for a relatively low level of actual attractiveness.

I fucked a couple of escorts but I despised the experience. It felt degrading and cucked.

I turned 30 around 7 months ago. Like yourself I had a brief phase in uni but unlike you and @Foreverbrad it lasted even less, a couple of weeks with two girls when I was 18 and 19. I wouldn't even consider them a gf.

Tbh I always expected something to happen. I would find someone at school, college/uni, even did a post-grad in another location thinking I'd find someone. Got multiple jobs thinking I'd find someone. Never happened. Joined OLD at 28 for the first time after chadfishing for years, even though I got some attention I wasn't gonna accept the brutal hypergamy and settle. I always considered OLD my absolute last resort. Now I know that even this channel is not gonna work. I've exhausted all my options. Also bear in mind I want an MTB + virgin and aged 23-28 max. It's over.

To piggyback off this comment, proximitypill is brutal. If mine and seculars locations were reversed, he would have found a girl years ago from any job he would work here. Location/proximitypill is very significant. For me personally i was always going to end up like this because that is the trajectory of my life based on the decisions or lack of i should say that i took. I have seen subhuman manlets with decent girls, not exaggerating when i say i have seen on multiple occasions subhuman with a MTB, it's all about the proximitypill.

Hilarious bio 😆

I personally am not into bondage.

I came up with the term taco bender. I got a literal klansman to start using that term on a different online community.

Perhaps my IQ played a role in how I was able to strategize as well as I strategized on Craigslist. A neurotypical college classmate, who had a relatively easy time getting foids in person (something I'm terrible at), failed miserably on Craigslist.

For me, looks aren't my problem. Autism is. Escortcelling isn't ideal. But it works for an autist like me.

When I was 14, I said to my then 15 year old male cousin "If only we had a free pass to feel a girl up, whether she likes it or not"

That type of thing was probably an early sign I'd become a 33 year old escortcel.

Idk about your situation. But try live in a fucking village full of old people. To make it worse imagine you're ethnic and Muslim and constitute 1% of the population. Yeah no chance. It's no surprise my sister and brother are older than me and unmarried too.

You have way more options in a city. Most people live in cities so my comment won't resonate with them. Even if you use OLD in a town it's a fucking graveyard. I even saw some white girls from my year group at this age they are still single on OLD. They've had vfs before just not chads I guess and even they have limited options.

not even, you’re not even guaranteed a job just because you’re ‘white’ in these fields. employers actually want ethnics because they’re willing to do the same work for lower pay without complaining. wonder who promised you that ‘six figure career.’ delusional.
