Do your family/friends' successes in life make you happy, or bitter?
>>37637162
No one in my life is as successful as I am. They are all massive under achievers.
This is what depresses me. No one has even a mild amount of motivation.
I'm from a family where nobody has made anything of themselves.
I ran away from it all, just to make nothing of myself.

I like that my sister is successful, it draws all the attention to her so no one will question me. She's really talkative too so she keeps everyone preoccupied. My fear is always when my family asks what I'm up to. Because I have nothing going on, and don't want to be asked. Whenever my sister doesn't attend a family gathering, neither do I, because that just leaves me for them to interrogate.
it only bothers me when they talk about their success and imply that i should feel bad about
my own failures. so i feel bad for not feeling bad.

>Do your family/friends' successes in life make you happy, or bitter?
It makes me depressed. My younger bro is doing much more better than i'm. I see myself as a failure of a older brother.
Bitter I'm a bad person. If I wasn't a lazy waste and accomplished something on my own I'd probably feel differently
Bitter as fuck. one of my mates is a gawky looking cunt but gets half staceys. im a 7/10 and have only had bog monsters. he got on well with his lecturer who bagged him a cushty it job, whilst im unemployed

Sounds like he actually tries to engage in conversation or tries often enough and you don't.

Bitter as fuck, because I know my sisters got a lot more emotional support than I did.

But you're a guy.

What's that supposed to mean? That he doesn't need emotional support because he's a dude?
I don't really care until people start mentioning how much better one person is doing compared to me.
Then I feel bitter.

Dudes dont need emotional support that much. If you cant overcome your obstacles then you're not a man.

Immediate family-happy.
Young people my age- bitter.

I personally flew around half the world, gone yachting, was working abroad and inherited some nice money after my grandfather.
But all those achievements fade away in comparsion of my friends, who are liked by girls and flirted with. Who found happiness in another human's soul. And I never even got to held hands.
So yes, it makes me bitter.

It's not about showing emotions but overcoming obstacles.

makes me ashamed. The college meme isn't fake, my parents thought I knew what I was doing, and now I'm unemployed and broke

I'm always happy if anybody in my family or friends circle succeed in anything,they're more likely to be nice and share shit so
Considering I have no friends, and my family is just barely more successful than myself, I don't really care.
Whether or not I'm content with my situation is up to me. And I am. I have no desire to really change things, and definitely no motivation to do so. I accepted there are things I can't change and that it's best to not worry about those things.
The benefit of being close to suicide everyday is that you do stop caring about social norms and are left to do what you want (within ability). I could do a lot of shit because I have little to no connection with the normie world. Am I gonning to do those things? Not today
I dont have any friends besides a blackbot full neet somewhere in the south and my dad couldnt give any better advice then just b urself m8 so i dont really feel that he counts as a success.

i feel pretty much like a worm compared to everyone else. i've gone to college, but there's literally no other success stories to my name.
even my socially-anxious brother has held down a job better than me. i got fired after a few months into my first job and i might stay NEET for the rest of my life because the job i had pressed charges against me.
