I assume I'm supposed to be attracted to these women but in fact they make me feel nothing
Something about very conventionally beautiful women bore me to no end
No matter what I imagine doing with them it can only ever be boring
If they were to love and accept me unconditionally even more boring
A dog or cat or fish or bird etc... is more of a real creature to me than any of these women
I'm not an incel this is purely an instinctual response I have no control over nor do I understand it

>Freezing cold when I didn't wear my coat last time I left the house
>End up dripping in sweat when I do wear one
>Corner shop got a coffee machine and now half the shop is blocked off by idiotic normalfags with their coffee addiction
>Everyone fucking gawping at me because none of them were taught it's rude to stare
>Their kids running wild, parents don't see anything wrong with their little shits running into people or under their feet
I FUCKING HATE GOING OUTSIDE

Silmarillion is excellent, but GREATLY diminished without Hobbit and LOTR.

8 hours, 5 days a week of difficult and fast paced labor. Come home and have literally no energy for reading anything. Anybody else have these feels?
