So I'm stuck at home since there's just nothing to do.

That's basically all I do is travel on the weekends to pass the time. But I don't even wanna go to social places like restaurants and bars I just get the been there done that feeling every time. Yeah and that's the issue is I don't meet anyone to hang out with and I'm honestly starting to think this is just how it is as you get older. Every year after the 25 mark it just gets harder to meet people that wanna do things or have hobbies. If you can't even meet someone similar then there's literally no way to get a social life started.

weekends are so boring man. there's nothing to do. I keep wasting money on uselsss stuff like $5 coffee or boba drinks or eating out because I just wanna get out. Then night comes and I'm so bored I just pay for porn and fap. Or I see an escort. There really isn't much to do.

Anyone else feel like this?

I still have the origional XboxOne from 2013. So demoralizing and painful. Stay strong bro, we'll all make it.

I've still yet to hear an interesting conversation since i was like 27. I just think once you get old life is boring i can't see how it's gonna get better at 35, 40, 50 etc. There is just nothing to do once you get a real job and have done everything.

I'm autistic and the only thing that makes me less autistic is tobacco but i've already kicked that habit. I was social on tobacco, i'm a dud without it.

Idk what to do anymore

And i try to talk to people but it's never anything i can relate to just netflix, food or marriage and idk what to say to it

It has to be something like lifting, metal or storms or something or i just can't talk

I've tried the netflix and video games talk but it's just so lame like you can't hang out with someone and just talk about video games and tv shows

In the bathroom breaking down I just don't understand why everyone just talks about netflix and podcasts i don't have anyone irl I can talk to and I just wanna cry at this point

And it's been like this for so many years it's not like it's just a recent thing or every once in a while I literally don't hear any other convos or anything I can jump in and talk about anything

I'm sorry your co-workers suck. Netflix seems to be the big topic these days and I don't like to watch it as it gets so addictive that you just want to watch the next episode and the next episode. At least with TV shows you had to wait a week for the next episode, but Netflix has turned people into addiction bots.

That's pretty much all I did today. There's just never anywhere to go anymore. I have nothing I need to buy that I can't just order online & save money on gas. I'm just always home 99% of the time when I'm off from work.

Same I buy most of my stuff online but even if I take a trip to best buy or target what does it even matter I'm gonna still be bored. I don't like going out to eat either cuz it's so packed and I can just eat at home or at steak and shake or something. Another thing is I used to watch sports and wrestling but even it's cringe now. Just nothing to do ever anymore, everything has gone way down in quality to the point where I don't really want anything to do with it

Feeling a bit of a black dog gnawing. I can understand why a person who "has everything" can feel empty, even when they have the "real" things in life (friends, family, etc). IMO having those things is only half of the equation, being able toderive meaning and wholeness from those things is the other half. To use a well worn analogy of bringing a horse to water, when the horse does not have the motivation to drink, what does one do? We have a higher mental capacity and can force ourselves to drink, but that still doesn't address the lack of motivation. I've posted a thread on death recently, of two people close to me, but what really kicked off my bleak mood recently was later finding out of the suicide of a singer I admired. I know it sounds ridiculous. This guy had what some here don't, massive talent, friends, family, etc and still there he went. It's presumptuous to assume, but I have a feeling there was a disconnect there as well, he's probably been struggling for years to hang on and just decided he'd hung in there long enough. Family, work, whatever....if one cannot derive meaning and wholeness from these things or anything, how does one force it in gear again? What is the reason for our disconnect? I've only felt this bleakness for some weeks, I cannot imagine anyone living with this for months or years and the blackness that takes over. I hope it doesn't get to that point, this'll hopefully go away like it has in the past, but with age comes a bit of cynicism and it's harder I've noticed to bounce back. I've fewer friends, fewer family members I can trust, fewer things keeping me connected and grounded. Usually the worst question in my head is why? For what? Answering with the normal answers that under normal circumstances is enough feels hollow now.

Man idk how people cope there is literally nothing to do ever. Nobody talks about anything but tv shows. I'm out of work again and have to either just sit in the chitter and wait for time to pass or stare at a wall in my room. Nobody talks about anything these are my only choices.

Hi EOD,

Someone mentioned you were sad there's no more lifting threads so I thought I'd let you know that I participated in a meet recently.

https://forum.obnoxiousbrutes.com/showt...hp?t=181538143

Post your thoughts please.

I still haven't heard another convo besides dumb netflix, politics and work stuff in like 7 years. Idk how anyone is doing anything. Nobody talks about anything else. It's to the point where nobody even talks at my job. Only people in their 40's and 50's do but people my age don't. There's just nothing you can do.

Just sucks that I never have anything to do or anywhere to go anymore. I literally don't leave my house when I'm not at work since I literally have nowhere to go. I work out at home & buy everything I need online & have no one to go with anywhere anymore. It's just not in my mental makeup to find it enjoyable doing things on my own. I need people to do things with but anyone I talk to lives too far or are too busy with their own lives where I can't hang out with them any longer. It's making for a very boring life & have nothing to look forward to. I really think a huge component to being happy is having a strong social circle where it doesn't make work that bad since you at least have stuff to look forward to after work or at least on the weekends. When you literally have no one to hang out with or nowhere to go it just makes everything feel so blah when you have nothing to look forward to.

Yeah but the issue is over the years it's getting harder to meet anyone at work. Most people in their 20's and early 30's are not really looking to meet new people or be social as they are addicted to social media and live in their own little bubble. You can't just make awesome coworker friends like you could before smart phones and social media. Maybe some people can but that isn't what i'm noticing anymore. People seem very closed off in general. You also have to be careful what you say nowadays since any little thing can offend someone and they go to HR.

Yeah people don't like me at work either. At least i don't think my coworkers do. Nobody really talks there either so it's like all i have to do is work by myself or sit in the chitter to pass the time. I need people my age to talk to but i only work with people in their 50's and late 20s and the ones in their 20's are all weird and hard to relate to. Been like this for years man. I can only relate to people on forums now and my GF who i met 9 years ago. That's why i have like 37k posts here in the last 8 years cuz that's when i stopped being able to relate to people.

Exercise only temporarily helps for me. I could feel decent for the rest of the day than I wake up the following day than it's just a repeat of feeling bad again. I've had blood work done again recently & even a brain MRI done a few years back & it all came back normal.
