My opinion is that “Having a life” is such a loaded term because it inherently suggests that one persons life is better than the other when in reality what is considered “having a life” is individualistic. Used to be going to work, relaxing at home, going to the gym, occasional restaurants and going out was normal.
Now it’s considered boring and “not having a life”. Me personally I can give a fukk about traveling and other modern values that project a perceived value of someone. Does that mean I’m “boring”? No, that just means my value system is different than the person that has hobbies (whatever that means). And that’s ok. Everyone is different. Modern men and women cling so tightly to identities like traveling, hobbies, and other bullshyt that they forgot how to be PEOPLE. And that’s partly what the issue with modern dating is. Everyone is trying to out experience the other to appear more valuable.
I’ve run into plenty of women that travel all the time, have supposed hobbies, etc, but you peel back the layers and it’s all cope because they have nothing else to offer except for experiences. Sit them down for a conversation and they’re miserable as fukk.
It’s ok to be content and happy chilling at home, gym, work, and occasionally going out. But somehow that got lost in the sauce. Now it’s if you want women you better travel, hobbies, be an extraordinary gentleman, and other bullshyt and if you don’t do the above you deserve to be single cause you’re boring.
