In chess, when your opponent is set to mate in a few turns no matter what you do, you resign.
In war, when your forces have been outmaneuvered, outgunned, outmanned, or in any other way rendered hopeless in such a way that fighting can only stand to cause unnecessary destruction and suffering, you surrender.
In higher education, when the field of study you've chosen proves too difficult, or you find its prospects disagreeable, you abandon it.
None of these things are seen by most people as unintelligent or unethical. They are all seen as valid and reasonable decisions available to people whose situation has been rendered hopeless. The only difference between them, and suicide, is of degree. When you resign from a game of chess, it is because you have no hope of escaping mate. When you surrender to a superior armed force, it is because you have no hope of defending yourself from them. And when you commit suicide, it is because you have no hope of making your life worth living.
Don't let anyone tell you suicide is a selfish or cowardly act. When you end your own life as an incel, you face the great unknown beyond life, and you remove yourself from a society that has judged you as defective. It is a brave, selfless act, and the purest act of agency over your own self.
I'm not telling you whether you should or should not commit suicide, but whatever path you choose, I support you. Nobody can know your situation better than you, and if you've come to believe through your own retrospection that your life is not worth living and never will be, it would be ignorant and pompous for me to do anything but respect your agency and wish you luck in your endeavor.
