Hopefully I can make some of you feel better by saying this: but I am a loser at life and not good at anything. Literally, I have no talents. I'm not even good at video games, really.

I'm almost 40 ad have never had a girlfriend. My life is a lost cause but I post this in hopes of maybe reaching any of you that are 18 or 24 or 30 or whatever and think you're a loser. Believe me, you're better than me. And I'm sure you will make something of yourselves. I'm just going to drink my self to death

Well good then. Be assured I am 15 years older than you and much more of a loser.

You will do something with your life and not end up like me

I'm pretty average at most things as well. I'm quite good at video games, though. And driving. I play guitar, but I'm not really great (anymore) as I stopped playing (no space to play where I am right now) and now I'm not nearly as fast or accurate as I was even four years ago. You're not alone.

For those who are lost at eighteen, at least for work, you could take up a trade. In four years you could be ticketed. Then take up another. In eight years you'll have two tickets. Then take up a third. By your early thirties you'll be able to build an entire house and travel anywhere in the world for work. There are other options, but I think that's a rewarding path.

I'm right, as expected.

This. Here's some motivation for you TC:

Man, today, heart-weary with the sorrow, sin and failure of his past life, feels that he could live a better life if he could only have another chance, if he could only live life over again, if he could only start afresh with his present knowledge and experienceHelpless, he stands between the two ends of life, yet thirsting for the chance to live a new life, according to his bettered condition for living it. In his blindness and unknowing, he does not realize, like the storm driven sailors, that the new life is all around him; he has but to reach out and take it. Every day is a new life, every sunrise but a new birth for himself and the world, every morning the beginning of a new existence for him, a new, great chance to put to new and higher uses the results of his past living.

Dude, pick up an instrument. Also, you will suck at it for the better part of a couple of years. But persistence pays off.

Well that's beautiful, but I don't think I could live a better life if I started over. I'd probably just be the same loser again and again

I actually picked up the guitar 20 years ago and still suck at it so...

Some people just don't have an aptitude fr anything. I am one of those people

But seriously dude... quit being a pussy and just learn a trade. You know how easy it is to take some classes and learn a simple trade and get a decent job? Its fucking easy as shit. Not everyone gets a job that is something they're particularly amazing at or have a passion for. Just pick something and go with it

this attitude is what's giving you this feeling man. 40 is not that old. if you were 80 i'd say yeah maybe. you can do a heck of a lot still

Dont ignore my post with actual good advice just because it's easy to do. You mentioned that you're an alcoholic and I know alcoholics have a tendency to make excuses and avoid something because it takes a little bit of work and it's easier to bury yourself in your own self pity

That's the only difference between you and I. Well unless you have a job. You know though there are people that are worse then us and in a much worse situation so compare yourself to those rather than those who seemingly have it better and you'll feel good about being you in no time.

Instead of wishing, have you tried learning and practicing something? "Loser" is really a self-fulfilling prophecy. Pretty much anybody is capable of leading a really good life if they're willing to put the effort in.
