Dropping out + vent (18 yrs)

[happybird]

(long thread but deeply relatable for some here)

I’m tired of this life.

Always chasing something and never really reaching it.

It started with red pill and the gym.

Then I got into money maxxing. I actually had some success, but I stopped after realizing I missed out on life between 16 and 17.

Now it’s blackpill and genetics.

I’m just tired of jumping from one thing to another and mostly consuming instead of actually getting somewhere.

Right now it’s just school, scrolling on my phone, and maybe doing something with newer friends once a week.


I don’t really feel driven by anything.


And I keep comparing myself.


There are people who are just born into better situations. Tall, good looking without trying, rich parents.

I’m not ugly and I do fine with girls, but I’m 5’10, not 6’1, and it feels like that already puts me a step below.

They grew up in cities, had friend groups from early on that they still have now.

They travel to the US, Dubai, St Tropez. They actually live.


At home it’s different. My parents stress about money a lot.

We go on maybe two vacations a year.


I’ve never been to places like the US, Dubai, Japan.

There’s so much out there and I feel like I’m missing all of it.

When I was younger my dad used to get mad at me and my brother for being on our phones and say go do something.

But what were we supposed to do

No friends nearby, no places to go, nothing going on in this town.

At the same time kids in cities were already getting girlfriends and having a social life.


I just want to experience that kind of life at least once.


Being that guy. Really Good looking, tall, rich, surrounded by real friends, actually enjoying life.

Not constantly wondering if people really like me or just tolerate me.


Money maxxing kind of messed things up for me.

I isolated myself, lost connections, stopped being known in school.

Stress and lack of sleep made it worse.


Now I’m 18 in a class where most people are 16.

I hate having to explain that every time.

It wasn’t even really my fault.

I wanted a normal school experience with real friendships and memories, but I’m not really getting that either.


And I don’t even want to continue school.

It feels like time is running out and I need to get rich soon if I ever want to live the life I’m thinking about.

But I’m stuck.

Either Stay in school, finish at 20, and risk wasting these years and ending up with nothing special


Or drop out of school, work a minimum wage job and go all in on building something, but risk being alone and failing


and I don’t even know if my current friends are real like that.

I’m never the one inviting people.

I’m not part of a solid group, just someone trying to fit in.

That part gets tiring too.


I keep thinking why couldn’t I just be one of those guys who already has his circle

Or like my brother who has good friend groups
he was always kind of cooler and more normal from younger age
would also sometimes friend mog me
id be with a friend and he would also be around and i could notice that my friend liked to be around him and i dont know if he liked him more than me sometimes

dropping out might not fix everything

But staying would be bad too

I imagine a different life

Being in places like Miami or Dubai, around people who are actually doing something, having experiences all the time instead of once a week

Actually feeling alive


I don’t want to be 20, just finishing school, with nothing to show for it

I don’t want to follow a path that leads to a life I already know I don’t want

But I’m also scared


Scared of ending up at 20 with no diploma, no success, no real friends, just stuck at home with pressure to figure it out

I feel like I have to decide

Follow a path I don’t believe in

Or take the risk and try to build something better


Because in the end it’s my time

And it’s limited

And these next years actually matter

idk what to do
drop out and do my best to live a life i love
or continue this empty existence where i only sometimes have fun

(the original text was a bit more authentic, but pretty long and repetitive so i put it in chatgpt to frame it better)

shit, I meant to say, kinda relatable but imo finish school and then start taking risks. having a degree is always better than nothing and will help you if other things fail. for me I'm going to germany next year to study and live there and I don't know anyone but you just have to go with the flow

yeah kinda true
ig its also lot of over comparison with these 18 yr old millionaires on insta

for me its mostly a decision between: 2 more years of school with no chance of building somthing on the side

or

drop out and work a job while building something if i know almost 100% that i will become independent anyways

like why would i spend 2 more years of my peak youth slaving in school if i could be financially free at 20

but ive made some mistakes alr so i cant trust myself 100%

go with what you think is best for you. just don't do something you'll regret. also 18-20 is nothing you still got plenty of youth time ahead

 

[myosin]

i feel you. But maybe finish school first, so you have kind of a guarantee and then start taking risks to improve your situation. good luck bro
