I gave up playing games in a regular fashion. I am homeschooling my son all day, then at night when I am with the missus, it's just constant degenerate fucking. I give up this life.

I'm 28 and I completely abandoned the idea of getting a girlfriend and having kids.

My mother and father (who are seperated) pushed me for years to have kids and my father had two girlfriends both of whom financially raped him hard. My father's second girlfriend broke up with him last month and he's out over 100k euro because he built a six floor house on his ex girlfriend's parent's farm land his ex-girlfriend's parents own the house 100% now. He's already preparing to try get a third girlfriend at 52 and still thinks it's worth doing.

>>738329681
NTA but it's a lot easier to socialize kids when homeschooling now, but you have to go out of your way to do it. There are also co-ops that "homeschooled" kids go to pretty often that are essentially regular school with just a smaller group of kids. Only really possible if you live in an urban/suburban area.

The main risk with homeschooling is whether you're a good teacher as the parent. I've seen homeschooled kids that were complete chads, athletic stars, and succeeded academically. And I've seen others the same age that were just awful, hopeless losers. It's just like public schooling but way more parent-dependent.

Seems like your issue is that you have a wife and kids which is the sign that maybe you should stop playing videogames

People in their 30s who don't have a wife or kids can still do whatever they want, I'd say that even with a wife you can still game, kids are the responsibility and time drainers

There is not a single person in a relationship that retains their independence, and all of those people are sacrificing their identity and passion. At some point you have to decide what's more important, being your true self, or not being alone.

At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the sabbath; his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. 2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, “Look, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath.” 3 He said to them, “Have you not read what David did, when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4 how he entered the house of God and ate the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have you not read in the law how on the sabbath the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless? 6 I tell you, something greater than the temple is here. 7 And if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of man is lord of the sabbath.”

There is no scenario where you are in a relationship and can tell me 100% honestly you're putting everything into your hobbies the same way you would be if you were alone. If you're playing games with your gf, there is no way you are playing in the same capacity you would be if you were single. That's just one example and it's common sense. As I've said, how much value being your true self has is on a per individual basis, maybe that doesn't matter to you. However, I'd argue on a board for playing video games as a hobby it's pretty important, and I dont think people should have to slow down to accommodate dad gamers, who are supposedly so much better off than everyone else already. Can't have it all.

I essentially switched to reading from gaming because it's easier to take care of the kids while reading some pages quickly in between while he is busy on the playground.

I miss the carefree days of playing games from the moment I wake up to when I'm ready for bed.

Now it's...
>Get done with work
>Game for an hour
>Make, eat, and clean up dinner
>Game for another 2-3 hours
>Shower
>Lay in bed and don't fall asleep until 1am

And that's if I don't get sidetracked with other things that need to get done or get caught up watching something.

Even gaming on weekends feels like a struggle. Sometimes I'm so checked out from the week that nothing sounds fun. So I end up playing something casual.

Or I get caught up in errands and chores that it's the evening before I can play anything. And then it feels like just a normal day after work.

Real talk. 35 yesr old single male. Lives at home but full time job. Maybe it's just a change in priorities(finally getting my shit together and getting fit, as well as attempting other mentally stimulating activities like playing a musical instrument) but the value of time is becoming more important to me. I still game it, but I'm not the same I used to be. If I want to get up early as balls before work to go lift, I have to sleep earlier to wake up feeling good enough to do it. That means I have less time to play games which means I have to now be more specific to which game I'm choosing. Online multi-player games are completely out unless there's a PvE component to it as I don't have the desire to use the small amount of time I make gaming trying to become average at some shooter or fighter. The movie game experience CAN be enjoyable if the gameplay is worth it, but it rarely ever is. Lately I've found myself just booting up my hacked psp and playing some old psx games from when I was a kid(Tenchu, Siphon Filter, bloody roar) and just play through those for an hour or so daily. It's surprisingly comfy but also is making me realize how embarrassing the current state of gaming is.

Agreed, but I have the kind of job that requires me to spend at least 1 hour of overtime every day and sometimes work weekends for what is most likely half or less of your yearly income.

I still don't understand how adult babysitting jobs can exist while some people literally get worked to death, it has to be some kind of sick joke that the leaders of our societies are pulling at our expense since I refuse to believe that a single excel pusher is worth more than 40 retail workers, 30 nurses, 20 construction workers or 10 technicians. Money isn't even real anymore and is all just some "IOU" bullshit anyway.

My coworkers are beyond incompetent so they fucking spin their wheels while I try to stay on top of everything as much as possible so that I can drip feed work to submit when bullshit inevitably comes up. Obviously I would get fired if they ever found out about this, but I find it pretty hilarious because in reality they should hire me as a consultant to fix their company instead.. if one person can sit in the pool all day and collect bonuses, then there is something critically wrong with every level of management at the company

Brother the people at the top have recognized the precariousness of their station and so they're milking it for all they can. Because if they're getting ousted anyway, then who cares if the whole thing collapses? We should have just shut our mouths about all this #metoo epstein shit and we'd all be living a moderately more comfortable life.

What do you mean by "shit that up" and why would they need your consent for tabletop, but not vidya?
I mean... I'd assume you mean either that either nobody can shit on you for tabletop, or that nobody can ruin that experience for you.
For the former, there's totally morons out there who'd shit on you for playing tabletop as an adult on the one hand and I don't see why they'd have to wait for your consent to shit on you on the other.
For the latter, I mean.. if you have kids they can break your shit when you're not around. Your wife could totally shit on you if she thinks you're ditching her to do tabletop.

So yeah, I don't get what you mean and got curious.

The missus was barren. I was in the doctor's office when the diagnosis came through. I was raw dogging that woman for over a decade and then boom. I got her pregnant one day. I was never going to leave her so it was a now or never sort of decision. God kids are so stressful. I want to die so frequently. I dream about life insurance policies. I think I will commit to one. I give it my all and don't let a single mistake slip. I love my wife and son. I dream about becoming a workaholic so I don't have to experience being around them. I can't be like my abusive parents.

I just wake up at 3:00am sometimes earlier.

Wife thinks I wake up at four since I always say "I've been up for a couple of hours"

Usually get to bed at 8-9 if I can, sometimes earlier. Inb4 "muh sleep" I'm on 200mg.test per week, so my energy levels it's not an issue.

Also I work from home so there's that. I put up a sensor that lights up when my wife leaves her office in my direction.

Same here if the world is really true there is no reason to be part of it which makes me think it's an illusion since it's so evil and fake.

Been here since 2004 sometimes normaloids come here pressuming their timebomb life with kids and all the shit. 2 years later they make a thread about how woman are shit and that she cucked them.

Learn the joys of been single.
