>good paying career
>basically only go to work, gym, and home
>barely even spend money on anything, just play games or jack off when home
now what do I do? Am I just supposed to play vidya until I die?
>>
Yup, try to be happy until life happens and fucks it all up
>>

Go get a gf/bf try not to fuck it up.

>Good for you. You won the game and are in creative mode
>>
get good at a craft and make something the world wants to buy from you that isn't selling your labor to mr shekelstein
>>
You're supposed to make the most out of yourself.

I'm not gay and a gf genuinely doesn't sound appealing. If I want companionship I'd get a dog, and sex is boring and starting a family is the last thing I want to do
>>34390335
I tried getting into drawing but didn't enjoy it. Other crafts don't really sound appealing either.
>>34390336
that's what I'm trying to figure out how to do
>>
>>34389850
Congrats man.
Yeah I mean what do you want to do? Do well at work, save up money, new hobbies, old hobbies. Maybe gf in a few years or not idk if you aren’t feeling it now.

Anon, I'm gonna tell you a piece of advice that is so damn simple you need to apply it. I remember from a video of a guy with down syndrome that his father told him every time he got down he dusted himself off and got back up.

That is how you need to apply what you are doing. You need to figure it out yourself not anyone else. Everyone is human and not God anon. No one knows the perfect answer to everything. If people did the world would not be what it is.

Now go take risks and learn from it.

I don't know, but my biggest fear is living life passively and not really doing anything worthwhile or accomplishing anything. Playing video games all day sounds nice in the moment but I don't want to be 40 having done nothing. I just don't really know what there is to do, and I can't force myself to do something that I find 0 enjoyment in just because it might fulfill my arbitrary goal
>>
>>34390406
Because you're too afraid things are gonna kill you. That's something my grandmother taught me not to focus on before she died. You need to believe in yourself anon and I do too.

no retard

keep saving money & living that way until you think of something more ambitious/better
saving money early is great & you'll thank yourself later on
>>
>>34389850
Invest all your savings into a broad index fund so that in 15 years you don't need to work and you can play vidya and jack off all day every day.

Honestly I'm in a similar position and I have no advice to you. I've tried finding a boyfriend but man this is inexplicably difficult. I've tried having hobbies but all hobbies eventually get boring.

>>34390406
At surface level the fear "I've done nothing with my life" makes sense but then you need to realize that even if you win god damn Nobel prize in 100 years literally nobody will give a fuck so I think the gamechanger is to stop thinking like you owe something to the universe.

When you go to a poor country you'll always see old man playing chess and enjoying nice weather. Every day they're playing the same game making the same mistakes, and the weather is exactly the same, with exactly the same music playing in the background. They just don't give a fuck and chill. I aspire to be like that.

Volunteer. stop being such a loser sitting by yourself and go to talk to someone with a purpose of helping
