I don't think this is always true. Well meaning friends don't care about hurting feelings. They care about saving a friend. You have a projection against friends, Vulnerability and love.

There's more to Life. Sex is just a drive instilled by the need to reproduce and thrive. That's not a purpose, just a need.

All I can say....my words of wisdom I cling to lately : Life is pointless. Everything is nothing.

Leo hows life going. Are you enjoying your life? And how is your health ?

So how is this sandbox up until now ??

Thats great ?

@The Monk Your parents are hampering your growth severely. Not a good place to be in. If you're in London its best if you find some counsellor to get in touch with and get their support to make your parents to understand the situation. If they don't, then apply anywhere nearby for a sales job, or other local low level jobs and use the money to live in shared rented apartments. That's your only chance brother. Or get help from some school /college friend who's ready to let you stay with him till you get financially independent. Until you don't have your own money, nothing can be practically possible at this moment

@Haumea What example would you give to show his lack of self awareness.

Because I'm wanna show I'm great........ really great great person I wanna be fucking Jesus Christ.

@Siim Land This is great. I will implement this. Waiting for more. Whats the name of your channel ?

Very simple and straight advice Do what is simple, result-yielding and plausible. Rest all is bs. Just traps.

Its tough for me. What i do is not a particular practice. I just tell myself to hang on and stay strong. And I remind myself that If i have come so Far, I could still make it.

You don't have to choose between the two. You can have both. If you allow one to hinder the other, that's upto you. Frankly I view both sides as unhealthy - when a guy is too interested in women but not work or when a guy is too interested in work but not in women. Just shows a lack of balance imo. Life is a juggling act.

Because you're trying to identify with something that may or may not be the absolute truth. You identify with it because you're told or conditioned to do so. Its only identification.
