My marriage 😸
Happily divorced since 3 years 🌞
I don’t regret it, but I can’t stop thinking about how I blew an opportunity to live wealthy forever by marrying someone I used to know.
For any young ones entering University: Hang out in the international clubs.
Just sort of giving up on life in my late teens and doing nothing.
I just go to work and go home.
I don’t have any friends, don’t have sex, don’t have any hobbies (besides video games), didn’t go to college. I’m very very obese.
If it wasn’t for my family acting as my social life and giving me stuff to do I probably would have killed myself by now. I have some friends online that I play videogames with.
(Yeah I’ve tried therapy and SSRIs/Wellbutrin and gotten my thyroid levels checked and testosterone.)
Glad your family had your back ❤️
Was, is and continues to be giving a shit about people that inertia has a strong foothold upon. Trying to help and communicate with others that their idea of a conversation is two word retorts.
Someone that in a workplace environment and say your job is packaging and 30 years ago there may be a little friendly banter sporadically throughout the shift. Now a sizeable segment of the working crowd will just wear headphones all day. Someone that has little situational awareness of doing a small task that helps the greater good of the group instead is eagerly awaiting the next episode of their favorite online video.
People now use all kinds of crutches why they cannot do something.
“I have social anxiety.” “I need a mental day off.”
Waiting to asked/told to do something rather then being AWARE, PRESENT, & ENGAGED.
And on the rare chance that one may initiate a convo there is a high likelihood that this individual needs a favor from you or something.
I realize our world is in a hyper-chaotic state and as my Dad would say, "going to hell in a hand basket but dang this communication deficit is making the experience even shittier when you’d think it couldn’t get any worse.
This has been my experience and have heard from several others who have had a very similar experience.
