Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
i think the problem is you think there is a problem.
Bro when i was your age, i didnt think about anything... zip. zilch. nada... thats why i fought that guy in the KFC parking lot. i didnt give a shit
i was pounding gurpreet over a parking spot and youre on here talking about how to navigate life. Thats wayyy too deep. You're over analyzing everything.
I think you guys who are having quarter-life crises are because you never had a chance to be a kid. you took on the mantle of adulthood way too early. No 20-year-old should be strapped with a mortgage.
Now you add in all this technology, social problems, bad economy, horrible role models, and you surround yourself with rich ass faggoty geezers who spend all day trolling an internet forum and of course youre gonna be depressed as shit. Id jump off a bridge a few times if i had to deal with half the shit you kids have to deal with nowadays.

One piece I'll tell you to look forward to Dic_baws. Shit changes big time when you pass through that crisis era. If all goes as planned, you really stop giving a fuck about trying to please everyone.
When I hit like 28 it all changed. I didn't need to be friends with everyone. I'm not saying I didn't want to be nice to people, but the faking it went out the window. I'm a social guy, so I always wanted to be surrounded by people no matter what, but with the decrease in free time I realized it's way better to be surrounded by your favourite people sometimes than just be surrounded by people all the time. I don't think most people know who the fuck they are in their 20s. It's for figuring it out, then in your 30s you become that person. Some people never figure it out, but I think lots of that comes from people that stuck themselves into something before they figured it out.

Appreciate it, I'm chilling tho. The topic came up again when someone mentioned how they were surprised by a group of hoes but no one hitting on them -> feminism/cancel culture -> online dating -> incel culture / quarter life crisis

Lol even Chris Martin called it, "either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy".
The CEO's wife just hit the jackpot!

CEO of a $50M company that isn't the smartest ... like at such a public event ??!! Even if the Kiss Cam didn't catch you, how about being seen by someone that possibly knows you at the venue? Proverbial, 'Go find a hotel room'.
Same here, apparently I missed the out of touch old man and red pill shit convention lol.
People who try and sell guys red pill advice are soooooooo cringe.
Truth is, shit works.
Remember, every woman gets flirted with and hit on many times a day, every single day. 99% of guys will blend into the probabiliy wave form of men she deals with constantly and you'll be forgotten within seconds.
Aura farm. Self-generate your own special sauce of being a man. When you react different to her, you'll be the first guy out of the last 100 to surprise her. Chicks who are HOT are used to being drooled over by desperate simps constantly... you need to make them feel like they are an option to you and not put them on a pedestal.
Even if you're broke as fuck you can get women with this method. In 2025, 99% of guys are afraid of saying the wrong thing... literally the "wrong thing" is what is going to get her attracted to you.
To distill this down to one sentence, you want to be aloof and mysterious, not down-to-earth and predictable.

Youtube suggested this, and because he has a british accent it seems more informative, but i think in reality this channel is like some sort of an incel help network.

I’m not trying to discredit anyone, but how do you get put on blast on Facebook (and know about it) from someone you literally just met, they don’t know your name and you just asked if you could buy them a drink?
It’s impossible. That’s why I feel like there’s always more to the story. Otherwise these chicks need to start solving cold cases.
There are groups on FB in every city, the Vancouver one is quite active called "Are we dating the same guy?".
Women will post guys on that group even if they haven't even met in person, just a Tinder match, or whatever.
Imagine being put on blast in a FB group with 20K+ members when you haven't even gone on a date together yet, I've had numerous people I know posted on that page (some deservedly, some not).

LOL dude have you seen the men's version of this - "Are we dating the same girl?". Chicks will make fake FB accounts to get into the men's group to snoop and put people on blast in the women's group. Fucking white trash nutjobs. Also there's lore that the women invaded the original group and got it taken down for abuse/harassment, yet the women are doing the same shit. Double standards.
Or it's some dude (usually Indian) posting a chick and the response goes:
- pass her over here homie
- hit and quit it
- ur a bitch
- a bunch of fucking simps clowning on the OP for an actual informative post
It's somehow a more degenerative version of THE DIRTY

The smart phone and other tech broke dating completely.
Now EVERYONE is a "Tarzan", swinging from one vine to the next but only when they have a firm grasp on the new vine do they let go of the old one. Anyone who has any experience in dating post-smart phone knows that when you are dating someone and you don't have kids... both people are likely to be flirting and keeping their options open even years into a relationship.
Guys... ask yourself how many times you've seen this situation in your life or your friend's lives:
Man A meets Woman B
Become couple
Happy social media and everyone thinks they're a happy couple
5-10 years go by and they're still "in love"
Big post made on anniversary where the woman makes a post of how much she loves her boyfriend but you can tell something is off in the post
Couple weeks go by and boyfriend's Facebook suddenly goes private/dark
Woman B suddenly shows off new cooler boyfriend in better shape with more money
Man A's Facebook active again but profile picture looks depressed
Woman B is pregnant/married in under 1-2 years with a bad boy's kid
Man A never recovers and becomes an incel Discord mod & huge pot-bellied Canucks fan goes bald and grows a beard
Woman B lives her best life after ejecting from long term comfortable relationship

I’ve seen plenty of dudes in my circles dump their women and be super successful after or get a younger chick and their women are too old to start over and turn into spinsters… it goes both ways.
If you’re over 40 as a single woman wanting more you might as well be dead, but a guy can keep chugging along… all the ideas above are stuck in the realm of people in their mid 20’s or early 30’s that didn’t have a sense of self when they committed to someone else.
