I went to feeling bad for him to having profound distaste.

i still feel sorry for dude, but he really shouldn't be posting on gaf. he's already negative and posting about it is only going to reinforce those feelings. but there's also the likely possibility this is his only source of interaction and he might not do well w/o it. pretty iffy really...

Yeah, and I agree, its just his talk about shooting people with arrows was a bit much. Even though I know he is just being depressed and lashing out.

Personally I think his biggest problem is he wants attention more than he wants help.
 
Yeah, Cole definitely made some mistakes, and I wish he would get some outside help more often. But I have to admire him for being successful by doing it his way. He could have had great outside production for his debut, he chose himself. He could have had a ton of great features for this album, he chose to have no other rappers. He does things his way and he does pretty well for it. And contrary to what PP said(as usual he is very wrong), Cole did go gold with Cole World.
I never said he didn't go gold. Just that if his next albums fails maybe he'll stop acting like he's better/smarter than everyone. Work Out is such a stupid song I still dot know how it became a hit, but that gassed him up big time. Roc Nation didn't like it, which is super understandable, and we were all proven wrong when it blasted up the charts.

IMO I'm good at figuring out if something can be a hit or not; I was dead wrong on Work Out, meanwhile I thought Can't Get Enough would be big but it flopped.

By your own examples you are not good at it...lmao

Either way, it's a mental health issue that needs to be addressed more than it needs people provoking and prodding.

Basically. It was already starting to turn bad, thread should've been closed as soon as they no longer needed contact info.

Personally I find the handful of people in the virgin thread trying to convince themselves and others that sex is not "that great" to be the saddest ones. Sex is fucking awesome, and if it isn't for you, you are doing it really wrong.

Kevin just needs real professional help, not message board attention and sympathy. I hope he gets it.

Can't Get Enough blows. Work Out blows but it got over on Paula Abdul nostalgia basically.

That Owl Pharoah is banging much harder than I originally thought it would. Just got Hell of a Night, Drive, Quintana and Bandz on loop.

I don't even know why I like Bandz so much, it's the typical trap-esque song formula but AI GOT BANZ.
 
Hard to relate to people in that virgin thread that set him off. I can't understand how people get to extremes.

Like not socialising at all an being in their late 20s early 30s. Same with being a virgin, fair enough not everyone has the confidence to talk to girls in school, but after that? Your having trouble talking to girls? That should be all the motivation you need to start working on improving it.

Same with morbidly obese people, how they reach the extreme of like >300 pounds makes no sense to me either. I was overweight my first year of college, all that drinking and eating poorly caused that. I got to around 250 and realised I needed to start fixing that. Dont get how people get beyond that and become huge.

And that whole suicide thing was an attention seeking exercise. The shitty attitude to people trying to help was just him being an asshole.

Hell of a Night is something special. Most played track from that tape.

It's all motivation, if you don't have motivation in life, you reach a standstill. If you think your goals are too far ahead of your capabilities, you put yourself in a vicious cycle.

I don't know, maybe it's because Psych is my major but I can't really knock folks for their responses or coping mechanisms for issues they have that are sad and they'd rather not have at the end of the day. Sometimes people who do these attention-seeking exercises receive little to no attention at all, and humans need attention. And I'm not talking not having random people notice your new shoes, I'm talking even the people closest to you seem to not acknowledge you. That shit can turn pathological fast.

No such thing as bad consensual sex, there's just good sex and better sex....

Well to be fair I've had two sexual encounters that were so bad I just wanted to choke the girl out and jump out a window. But they were anomalies that I don't take into consideration in the larger scheme of things.

that's why i bug out so much over not making any real progress (aka getting laid) despite working on this shit the last two years.
it all feels a bit worthless but i suppose it will pay off at some point or at least that's the hope. i won't like though it eats at me sometimes.

Is getting laid the only thing that counts as progress?

IMO something as simple as learning how to talk to strangers or getting better at conversational things (which is easy to practice) is a huge step.

It really is true what they say, once you stop giving a fuck and stop caring about everything that can go wrong, everything starts going right. That's when confidence starts to emerge.

I say this from someone who used to be as antisocial as can be (glasses, braces, unshaven mess, severe acne problems, had trouble talking to even female acquaintances etc.). One day I just got frustrated and started attacking these problems one by one. Another day I got frustrated wallowing in defeat that I just talking to this quiet chick because I felt I could not go lower and had nothing to lose (you always have nothing to lose). Boom, 1+ year relationship and a lot more learning.

Holy shit I had no idea that virgin thread got that bad.

Hopefully Kevin gets better. He seems like he took the advice way too hard.

honestly, yeah. but i'm results obsessed. all that other stuff - working out, dressing better, handling my emotions better, being more personable, etc. - was a means to an end, that end being getting laid again. yeah it lacks a little perspective, but that's how i really feel about it.

in the grand scheme of things i really am better off for all of these things, but that wasn't the point, so i'm not really going to be satisfied until i get what i originally wanted out of all of this whole process.

it just gets a little old hearing all of the shock from people when they realize i don't have a GF or i don't get girls. other people seem to think i'm a lot better off w/ women than i actually am. nobody can be more shocked about my predicament than i am, because it really doesn't add up. overall i just try not to dwell on it too much because it usually puts me into a funk. and since i tend to wear my mood, i'd rather not be in a pissy mood.

If people are shocked that you don't get girls, then you know you've definitely got something going for yourself in some department and the work is paying off already. Just need to try and isolate what your lacking most and then go in for the kill.

Hell, if its even girls that are shocked, you never know, one of them may be interested in you.

its usually girls. apparently i'd make good boyfriend material. i just wish i could bear the fruits of my labor. but i'm impatient as hell lol.

sn: i'm running through some of The Weeknd's stuff just to hear it in my headphones. Thursday has my favorite songs from him, the other two tapes are better overall though.

my boy brianjones said that and got jumped on immediately by like 100 posters in that thread.

and sex is pretty awesome but the first few times was kinda shit for me so i'd imagine that a lot of the posters in that thread aren't feeling it if they've only had sex once or twice.
