I go days and weeks without getting a text or send a text, sometimes it has been a month that way. Sometimes I feel like there is no point to have a phone. As I have grown older I realize less and less people want to talk to me. I put my focus in work, last few years been working multiple jobs at a time. It is what it is, all I can do is continue to be me.

You gotta send the texts! Might not get an answer to every one, but it keeps people from forgetting you.

Buy/lease now or defer to Q1-2023?

My car broke (engine seized, 10y old). I am interested in 530i ($62k price), however 3year lease is $1,000+ monthly (with $5k down). Monthly lesse payment is 50% more than bmw advertised offers (“south FL dealers are not participating in the program”)

Q to car gurus/experts- should I defer purchase/lease for 6 months? My logic, the impending recession will reduce demand and we will go back to more balanced market (lower prices with negotiation).

I’m so lonely I forgot what feeling wanted feels like. It’s almost as if I’m numb to the human need of feeling desired and I’ve accepted my fate of solitude. I’m not sad about this, that’s what makes it numb. Life feels bland but not terrible. I have no expectations of anyone to ever want me nor am I resentful that I am alone. Is this normal?

Does anyone else feel a hollownees with their lives?

We create targets for ourselves, then race to chase them down. Be it for a better career, money or a much higher standard of living. But I guess our youth pays a price for it. Not sure if this us just me or does anyone else resonates with this. For everything that I wanted to have and do have now, I feel just very hollow.

From a personality, values & looks perspective, the new girlfriend is what every guy would dream of. Im jealous &wish I could date her instead
