Vanity. † 06/23/20 (Tue) 13:51:22 75e711 No.838836

Looking for tips on living without it, because this is my biggest flaw.

During the huge mask craze when everyone was wearing them everywhere, I always lacked the interest to go out. I didn't know why, nothing had changed, I just didn't really want to, it seemed pointless. It took a while to realize that it was because I was having to cover up most of my face.

Here I thought the main reason for my going out into the world was because of necessity alone. I have come to find that my main reason has been to flaunt my pretty face, and be given positive attention because of my face/body/whatever. And, assuming I am not starving/in dire need of something, I literally cannot bring myself to do anything at all for myself.

I will still happily go to help someone if they need me, but other than that, if I cannot show off my physical form …I dont want to go anywhere.

It really is crazy how I never knew this until I literally couldnt show my face. It was so weird. I felt like a real piece of dogsh1t to say the least. And I know I will grow old eventually, so I know that relying on vanity is not going to last.

I know this is literally not a real problem at all. Still just asking, how others have gotten around the vain crutch.

Well, i'm not sure what you mean by vanity. The biblical meaning for the word is something temporary. The phrase "Vanity of vanities" literally means "vapor of vapors".

But if you're talking in the "ego, haughtiness" way, then don't let thise things go down your heart, or cloud your judgement or make you think that you are better than others. I know a brother in Church who is the kind of person, that, if he was a movie/game character, would be called a Mary Sue. He's smart, handsome, educated, faithful and every other good adjective you can think of, and yet, he acts like everyone else.

" I have come to find that my main reason has been to flaunt my pretty face"

The behaviour of people who think like that is very especific. They'll boast about their face, and use every opportunity to bring attention to their faces.

Yea, I just meant physicality alone. I mean, people can be vain with a sportscar or nice suit or something too (or even more).

And yea I do not think I am better. I consider myself very humble (which is not humble). But for me, I just revel in people looking at me, I do not think I am better.. I just enjoy it.

I also sometimes meet up with the "ugliest" people I can find online and have sex with them. Basically just getting off to their enjoyment.

Its very odd. I know its all very wrong.

>"I mean, people can be vain with a sportscar or nice suit or something too (or even more)."

People can be a lot of things with lots of things. If it doesn't bring you closer to God, or you can observe it and find comunion to learn more about Jesus teachings, why should you care about what others do?

>"And yea I do not think I am better. I consider myself very humble (which is not humble). But for me, I just revel in people looking at me, I do not think I am better.. I just enjoy it."

You and everyone else, M8. It's called being human.

>"I also sometimes meet up with the "ugliest" people I can find online and have sex with them. Basically just getting off to their enjoyment."

You wot.

Unsure what you mean. You are saying that you are making a thread about vanity, and asking for advice on how to live without it, but at the same time, not making a thread about vanity, and asking for advice on how to live without it?

Or are you just here to make a smug comment.

You sound like a preening faggot. You can't even say "girls", which would be bad enough, as far as vanity goes. But you take it a step further and say "people". Which tells me that you have even bigger things to worry about than vanity.

You sound like a real douchebag, is Christianity even suited for you?
