I wasn't built for this world. The 21st century and all its rules and processes. Driver licenses, bank appointments, job interviews, doctor appointments. They're all so foreign and scary to me. Sometimes when the cold truth hits me, I think to myself that it would be better to buy a large backpack, take out all my money, and become a vagabond.

I want to curl up and die when I think about doing those things. I wish I was born during a simpler time when you could sell your sword for a day's meal instead of all this complicated shit. Maybe then I could have died by a sword or something and be normal rather than shrivling up in a basement all my days.

In reality things wouldn't be perfect if I swapped out for a different time period. Everyone from the stone age up until now has struggled with shit, whether it be making a fire out of sticks or holding a fast food job. But my ideal time period would be a time where physical prowess determined whether you survived or not. Maybe then I wouldn't have grown up to be such a pussy.
>>
>>38645498
Again, this is useless 'coulda should woulda' talk. You had mentioned you had some money and wanted to be a vagabond. Let's explore that, see if it's possible.

First, how much do you have?

Second, what are your other assets like? Do you have a car? Bike?

Third, any skills? Could you busk if you bought a guitar or something?

Fourth, how do you see that playing out? You go on the road and... What? Where would you want to head to? Any friends or relatives you'd want to see? What would you do with your time?

This is how you need to think about it. Look for options and solutions. I'm curious about this, tell me your thoughts

The human mind really isn't built to process the kind of shit we need to process on a daily basis, we're almost always out of our element entirely, like a fish out of water, only we were never once even in water, we have become so used to suffocating in modern society that it has become standard to us. We were fish born out of water, who will die without ever having touched water, and most of us will never be the wiser, we will never even realize we are suffocating.

Fellow INTP I see. The burdens of existence just suck up to much time and energy in life. Eating, pissing, shitting, brushing teeth, taking out trash, sleeping, bathing, laundry, food prep, working, commuting, waiting, cleaning up all the messes just to make more messes you have to clean up later. I made a thread recently about how I believe the purpose of life would be to minimize all those things as much as possible, for only then can human beings really life freely, not be bogged down by all that shit. And this primarily is where real luxury lies, not in material posessions and extravagance, but to streamline and cut out so much of the mundane drudgery of mere existence. Still have to get around to eat, shit and sleep at some point though.

And normies think its wasteful and absurd to prefer using styrofoam and plastic bowls and forks you throw away after use rather than have to wash fucking dishes and utensils
>>
>>38647592
The time it takes to go get takeout can often exceed the time it takes to prepare a meal that will last you a couple of days and dish washing.

Also cheaper. And time=money.
>>
>>38647592
Good points. Maybe to be the perfect human being, instead of physical, is having the ability to mitigate all the absurd tasks in one's life. ISTP by the way, but close.

You would've been fucked in medieval times too. Lord would come to fuck your wife and daughter. Soldiers steal all your crops and rape your wife and daughter. The priest rape your wife and daughter. If you touch any of them, they'd kill you then your wife and daughter after they finish with them.

Preparing hot meals, not to mention all the cleaning up and shit is just so laborsome and boring though. If I prepare food for myself its just ready to eat stuff or as simple as cutting raw vegetables, toasting bread and boiling eggs. I go outside to eat and just get food somewhere that requires none-minimal social interaction or waiting time, for me that is really efficient, and one of the best uses for money, cause it saves you time and stress and allows you to eat healthy nutritious food you would never get around to making yourself.

How do people find/see meaning in all those dull petty activities. My life feels more meaningful the more I am able to break away from it. Unfortunately that often backfires in the form of procrastination, so piles of laundry, overflowing garbage, not brushing enough, etc

>>38647841
Thats exactly how I lived in my late teens and early 20s, and I could never accept that again. Only reason I put up with it was the belief that it was all temporary and I was destined for some vaguely defined vision of "success"

The conclusion though is that I've spent thousands of dollars on lottery tickets because I didn't see any other way out. Originally, I imagined I would eventually suicide if I never won the lottery in some amount of time, but now I'm looking into monastic life as the ultimate form of giving up. Though much simpler to just win the lottery and enjoy life on my own terms, sill being celibate and meditating often, but retaining first work comforts and solitude un-afforded in a communal environment.
>>
>>38645282
They learn how by practice, for a very long time. Most people that fit the bill for being "normal" have a very generous support network of people that are willing to help. The problem is that modern education doesn't teach all the required information and it is expected of parents to do so (when there is a common idea that when you're 18 you're supposed to be self-sufficient).
The only really overcomplicated bullshit is the absurd vocabulary of people posting shit jobs. Don't call it "associate of sales representative", call it a cashier.

>>38648101
>Falling for the lottery meme this hard
I'll never understand why people waste money on lottery tickets
>>
>>38648101
>How do people find/see meaning in all those dull petty activities

Cause life is just doing things and it gives you an excuse to do

When I see people doing chores it gives me a feeling of life. For example a house where everyone just sits there and does nothing feels dead but one where people do their everyday chores has a feeling of "life" in it.

This mundane shit is the bulk of life and without it it would be like playing minecraft except you don't spend time collecting materials and you don't spend time building anything, instead you just click and the thing you have in mind appears.

>>
Sometimes writing out how you feel helps so here it is. Sorry in advance.

I'm in my 4th year at a B tier university and I'm a complete failure. My negative habits have grown much worse, so much to the point that I feel like they define me now. I have absolutely no time management skills, no people skills and feel like I have a below average IQ because I feel so slow compared to others. I make the same mistakes in my life over and over and over. I used to be a light procrastinator but now I procrastinate on the most important things and the last few doors are closing for me. I have shit grades or career prospects, didn't learn much, made zero long term friends, no network, and of course am a kissless, hugless, touchless virgin. Basically, I fucked up everything that university could potentially have to offer.

My life is a mess. It's been like this for the past 5-6 years, getting progressively worse. Every time I hit a low point, it's a new all time low for me. I remember thinking, when things started to go wrong, that I'd never be one of "those" people but now I'm here. I've come to the realization that I'm basically a few steps away from being an actual loser basement dweller with no redeeming qualities. The world feels so foreign and confusing when I leave the house. I've literally never had a female friend. I have no unique interests, or excel at any skills. I takes steps to try to get off this path when things get rough, like blocking sites like 4chan and YouTube, uninstall video games, start exercising but I've never successfully followed through on any of them.
>>
>>38649655
part two:

Anytime I do anything slightly positive for myself, I subconsciously self sabotage myself into being worse off than before. I just feel so hopeless, I can't trust myself at all. I thought about why I've come to this point and a few things come to mind. Firstly, I have no social circle. By having a social circle, I would require myself to meet a certain standard to be presentable and remain worthy of being a friend. Secondly, I am directionless and have no drive. I don't know what I want to do with my life so I don't know what to aim for. The generic stuff like getting a good GPA or making my parents proud clearly didn't motivate me. I though about what I really want in life and the only thing I feel strongly about is wanting a cute, bubbly girlfriend with self esteem issues (think Annie from Community).

What the fuck do I do to get my life back? I just want to get off this ride and become a functional human being again. I hate this me.

>open up to your parents about how you feel
I wouldn't recommend suggesting this so easily, there are a lot of families like my own that are either incapable or unwilling of handling that sort of emotional baggage.
He should definitely finish the degree though. Being a graduate is infinitely better than being a dropout.

You're beating yourself up too much. Many people switch careers several times in their life. You probably don't even have a criminal record. You could've been a high school drop out. You could live in Africa. Just pick yourself up and start searching for something you'd enjoy.
>>
>>38650446
Let me tell you something. Every child who isn't a superstar is a disappointment to their parents. Even then, there are parents who would be disappointed even if the child had managed to be successful. You have to treat parents like normal people, in that their opinions are optional.
I've had some unfortunate streaks, my mom died and that made me start getting into college/career shit since I moved into my dad's household with an absolute cunt of a stepmother. I was fortunate enough to have a grandmother able and willing to pay for my college education. She became sickly and died the same week I had received my associate's. People tell me to go to university like it's no big deal, when I don't have any income and would have to rely on student loans to get more stressed, on top of sucking my livelihood dry.
Point being, no matter what you choose you're going to disappoint someone. It's better to not disappoint yourself first and foremost. I came to terms with being indifferent of socializing, realized all the normal standards being pushed on me were just incompatible programming. I want to work and live a peaceful life, and die just as peacefully. I will probably have to abandon my father to accomplish that, as he keeps spewing things that unsettle my peace of mind. Even if I pity him, I can't support a man who imposes his will on me when he isn't able nor willing to help me learn actual basics like doing taxes or driving a car.
If I go on about this anymore, it's just going to be entirely unrelated. Don't be afraid to disappoint others, it's the only way you will be doing what you want, and have a chance at living a content, or even happy life. Even if it disgusts me to say it, there are times where you have to throw empathy out the window to achieve the best possible result for (most of) everyone involved. I can tell you now, if you aren't willing to disappoint others for your own happiness, they will be disappointed of your sadness. It's a savage world.
