Discussion When did you first discover the incel community and accept your status as an incel?

[KetamineAddictYoda]

I remember scrolling through Reddit during my first year of high school and some user whining about evil incels. I went to the incel subreddit, was extremely confused, and left to quickly forgot about it. I soon rediscovered the community, learned what it was truly about, and began to regularly participate. At first I coped by believing there was still hope for me. Surely I could practice looksmaxxing and being outgoing. Maybe even some mewing. Although I shared similar struggles to these internet strangers, I was different. But as the years passed and I remained alone, I gradually came to accept more and more of the blackpill. Rejections, friendzoning, ignoring, mockery and more were too much to bear. All the effort I expended amounted to nothing while Chad had women literally approaching him... I should've listened to my "friends" that labelled me the ugliest of the group, the redditors who rated me a 2/10, and my parents who stopped asking about my love life. After graduating college, I now accept that it isn't over for me just yet, but only because it never truly began.

Years back I thought incels were just plain misogynists jfl. Then late 2022 I started lurking this forum and a couple others to see what's what.

 

[tandoorichickencel]

Around 2017 when incels was around on reddit and I could relate with everything they said

 

[MillionBashStream97]

Discovered it around the time I was an active poster on r/ForeverAlone... So around 4 years ago, I think.

And when I accepted my status as an inkwell, just look at my join date. That's the answer..

 

[LeFrenchCel]

After having asked out my then-oneitis (and being ghosted) during the very first covid lockdown.

I don't remember how the process went but I ended up learning about incel/blackpilled stuff, posted a bit on r/incelswithouthate, before signing up here a few weeks later.

 

[Coldone666]

I've known I was a pathetic subhuman since school, and every year it has gotten more obvious.

I didnt know about this website or a lot of the other incel stuff until this year though.

I'm 36 but I was still blue pulled and thought maybe it would get better (lol as if).

 

[SnakeCel]

In 2019 I became blackpilled and began to watch blackpill topic videos on YouTube and other sites, and I also began to browse some of the smaller incel-related subreddits such as r/braincels that were able to avoid the Reddit bans. I also visited /r9k/ a lot more as it is basically the incel board of 4chan, but I had used it extensively years prior to 2019 as well.

Then of course I began lurking here soon after. I was originally afraid of the glowies, but eventually, I just gave up because I had nothing left to lose and joined the site in 2022.

 

[ElTruecel]

2020 shortcels I think. I’m going to be honest I didn’t want to join because I’m an abused dog and identify more with my abused dog syndrome than not being able to get hoes

I typed in "incel website" and it popped out

 

[Chuddy]

A 5'1 Indian Janitor taped me to the wall and gave me a 42 hour lecture on the Blackpill and how it never began for me, and then gave me a ThinkPad T60 from 2007 with this site open and forced me to register. He then disappeared, heading back to Inkcell HQ.

 

[UnluckyCell]

around 2019, when I was 18 years old. I had already realized something was wrong with me since my early teens, seeing all my schoolmates having relationships and hooking up with girls while I was a socially awkward loser and no girl ever showed interest in me, but I never put much thought into it. Then I grew up, things did not get better, I found out about incels and the blackpill. and then I finally understood and accepted my fate

 

[Immolator]

Late 2020, found out about the blackpill

January 2021 is when I first found out about this forum.

 

[womenlikerape]

I found out I was an incel in 6th grade. I only discovered the incel circle communities till about 2 years later thoughever.

 

[Gokubro]

Basically I got really attracted to a foid in my class in 2016............ And here I am.

 

[The Darkcel]

I discovered incels from Reddit back in '14, so... that was almost a decade ago. But when I actually really resonated with it? The same time I gave up, so... around 2018-ish?

 

[ControlledInsanity]

I accepted my lonesomeness one night about a decade ago when I broke down. I knew it was over before ever encountering the its over meme. Ever since then, I've been kind of aloof to it and just kind of explore the blackbill today as a morbid fascination. Kind of the same way you would binge snuff and death clips

 

[fukurou]

most of the users were added when corpo media promoted this forum in the context of the minassian case

 

[PersonalityChimp]

I discovered this forum and the community in general after reading on 8chan about r/incels getting banned from cuckit

 

[Internalizzz]

Probably around the time my account here was created, I was in high school, and figured that if I remained in my situation there, then I was going to continue being one out of school

 

[Im Lost]

Over last 20 years gone from blue,red to black pill, had a hunch of evolutional biology 20 years ago that alphas get most of the female mates in the animal kindom, started to find nuggets of red pilled truths ie 80/20 rule hypergamy ect, when online dating tinder/bumble highlighted the truths, being 5.8" 95kgs, round head thinning hair Im invisible to 99% of women, im maybe a give-up-cel middle-aged-cel dont know really

 

[jeetcel]

I got blackpilled in 2019 only but came to know about entire Incel things far late in 2022 only even skipping the covid lockdowns times and all, mainly because i was busy in raising from nothing to stand on my feet - get a job and all
overall i'm still learning about associated things

 

[TheJoker]

I was trying to find a girlfriend in my twenties. Every single female i asked out or spoke to on online dating ghosted me
for years, despite improving my pictures and profile constantly. I then began experimenting using other pictures of men.
I was able to get dates using pictures of good looking men and average/chad lites. The only independent variable was
my own face.

Using my own photos for 15 years with no matches or anyone messaging back. I did get matches but they were
fakes/instant ghosters. Every woman you ask out just talks about their real and imaginary boyfriends/husbands.

 

[CountBleck]

it was unironically through inceltears. i think i was just googling "why cant i attract girls" when i was like 15 or 16 and somehow i got to inceltears. but instead of agreeing with em, i instantly knew these people were just a bunch of insecure shitheads. thats how i found this community

 

[PolskiKartofel]

August/September 2020 via wykop.pl, then I had break from lurking there since July 2021 and I made account here, almost 2 years ago

 

[FunkyMonk]

Was on the MGTOW cope at the end of 2016 until the end of 2017. I was in denial about being an incel until the blackpill made sense. I guess early 2018.

 

[Friezacel]

and my parents who stopped asking about my love life

mogs me, my parents never talked with me about love or sex
