were you part on an online forum where you talked about this and called yourself an incel?
being young and confused and angry at the world isn’t a special unique thing dude, it’s normal. hate to break it you but millions of tens of millions of people have read such books about how to pick up girls, they just forgot about or or didn’t regard it as a big deal.
so much of what is fucked up about online culture is people hyperbolic their totally ordinary experiences into an ‘identity’ and them form a support ground around it where they turn it into a pathology about how the world is oppressing them because of ‘who they are’ when ‘who they are’ is just some stupid arbitrary bullshit they made up.
literally every dude and every woman has struggled in romantic relationships. nobody is unique in that. when I was in high school before internet shit widespread, everyone whined to each other in person about they couldn’t get girls/boys they wanted an nobody liked them and kept trying to ‘figure out’ how to get to bang the people we wanted to bang. we just didn’t do it online or think it made us special or different.
incel became part of the modern popular discourse in 2014 when Elliot Roger mass shooting and self identified as an incel. the concept has only been around a decade, though apparently self-identified incels started using online forums in 2004 or so.
