yes, this is just what I'm talking about, it's so ambiguous and inaccurate, you don't know what you're looking for and whether you're doing it wrong or not, and you're never sure if you're going to get results.

Well boys, you're over the internet and no one on /x/ has any idea what's going on in your specific case, not even your age.
You see this shit is like trying to learn martial arts from /fit/ you ain't gonna learn shit by just reading and If you do, you might just learn wrong.

What they don't tell you, maybe cause they don't know, is that normal uninitiated people like you two will have a damn hard time experiencing anything out of the norm.
Ya wanna experience people knocking at your door at 4am just to find out no one is actually there when you check? Well you will have to get through some very basic guided meditation. Of course, if you were born 2000+ and you're 18- you will have to wait to be 18+ cause idk why you 2000+ teenagers are blocked by some external entity.
Oh and also, some people are 'dead', no matter how much you try, they will never experience nor believe it, in fact, they develop no interest towards any of this.

I got no time to initiate you folk and I'm taking no students so if you are interested in this shit just look out for the next time I appear and I might lend you two a hand.

I’m going to disagree
this is nothing like anything else. Because no matter how bad you do something, whether it be exercise or art or whatever, you can always see the result of your work. If you exercise you sweat and ache, if you try art you produce a product, if you plant a seed it grows. if you did it wrong it becomes very obvious that you did so (bad exercise = injury, bad art = ugly art, bad planting = dead plant). 
magic? who the fuck knows?
I’m trying to see if this stuff is even real in the first place. If I do a ritual and nothing happens does that mean I did it wrong, or does that mean that the magic isn’t fucking real? Nobody questions whether art is real or not when they can’t draw like they want, but trying magic gives you no guidepost so of course doubt will creep in.
then you guys say to have faith, which just sounds like religion to me. I might as well go back to attending church if all you’re selling me is just another religion.
And curiously nobody is ever in the process of learning. You’re either a complete novice (like myself or the other anon) or a 3000 year old wizard who just so happens to shit around on a vietnamese basket-weaving board.
I’ve done the work, I’ve meditate, I’ve read books and put their lessons to action. 
Years of trying you absolute fuck, years have come and gone with nothing changing. You think I’m under 18? Try 24 going to 25 in January
I’ve spent money, spilt blood and other bodily fluids, waited for the correct times and dates.
I’m fucking trying, I continue to give you guys the benefit of the doubt and every time you disappoint me
why I should believe anything you say? What separates you from every huckster, every con-artist, every lier and deceiver and schizo out there?

In the meanwhile, read philosophy, alright?
Pick whatever author you want, maybe some books about the nature of reality, well talk about that later.
When I got the time.
Mayve in a week, maybe a month, idk.

Just call me Khajiit.

I won’t ask anything of you, since as you said you’re a busy person
I just want you to know something
I may have tried for wealth and love in the past, but my true desire is much simpler
I wanted to know, to truly know the magic is in fact real
the fact that even someone like you still holds doubts, it saddens me
ironically it also makes me want to believe you more
enlightenment is a never-ending path huh? sure feels like it

In the end, we are just human, anon
Don't trust anyone claiming to have absolute knowledge. And yeah I do got doubts because as you might have realized, there is no way to check if you're right or not, and even if you do, you could say it was luck or a coincidence.
So that's where faith or belief comes into play, sometimes you just got to fire and forget.

And well, you wanna know for a fact that magic is real?
It's not that complicated, how do you define magic?
A series of doctrines and practices, a hermit studying for it's whole life, a druid in the woods meditating, psionics introspecting or even something as simple as gravity?

You see, just because we understand how it works it does not means it is any different than other forces.
What is magic? Who knows, it is very hard to tell. Following a religion, magic comes from deities but then, what is a deity?
Ok I'm stepping into Socrates here, what I mean is, to 'make things happen with nothing more than your will and a few candles' is as normal for nature as gravity pulling us down to earth. The idea that magic is 'something else' is just some dumb crap people came up with.

What you must want is to have a magical experience, something that feels real.
That is kinda rare, some people have spend their whole lives trying to reach that yet never getting there, others just randomly 'awaken' by some paranormal experience.
Idk Anon, I can help you out in the basics and that will open the door for information to just flow your way, but I can't promise you will find exactly what you want.
