People yell doom constantly but it rarely materializes and we can't control or change the things that do happen, only respond and cope. So all the interest you speak of is not as stimulating as you make it out to be. In reality we all do the same few tasks over and over again every day, individual lives don't matter and no one will remember our names, but those in our little circles, when we die. We are destined for nursing homes too. It's all been done. We go on because we have responsibilities to attend to. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1323328I'm thinking a family is supposed to take your mind off it for another twenty years or so until you're too tired to care about being bored. No kids. Absolutely no interest in having children, nor getting married. I just want to be alone really. But yes, I would imagine having a family would take your mind off of it all. I don't understand why people do it, to be honest. Theres your problem. If you're alone of course you are bored. Life isn't boring if you can have fun and enjoy yourself with other people. |

It feels great knowing there are other people that feel the same way. I'm tired of always feeling different which is why I put on a facade and act like I'm enjoying myself just so people don't think I'm some whiny loaf that can't just be happy with simpleton things that they find distracting enough. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 23670570 United States 09/14/2012 02:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why is the urge so strong? I usually get obvious answers like, "To perpetuate the human race, dumbass!" But these people don't understand what I mean. Of course you reproduce to make more humans--no shit! But I mean if you go a little deeper than that and ask why. Just because we need to continue to exist on a rock gravitating in space? WHY? WHY? WHY? What's the point in bringing more people here? There's no purpose to this. Just so we can keep populating the earth and making more slaves? Just so we can "advance" a little and then what the sun dies out and then everyone on earth dies? Then evolution comes into play again on earth or somewhere else and we repeat? WTF. Really? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 6594892 United States 09/14/2012 03:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For the past several years (I'm 32 years old), I've found myself incredibly bored with everything life has to offer. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1185559 Of course there are things I enjoy, for a while, but there is nothing I really look forward to. Everything is so boring to me. Every topic, subject, activity... life itself is boring. I'm not depressed. I'm just bored with living. I don't welcome death, but I don't fear it either. And I can tell you right now that I do NOT want to come back again. It's just too damn boring here. Anyone else? Not with life, just with your boring post |

And I can tell you right now that I do NOT want to come back again. It's just too damn boring here. Anyone else? I had the same feeling about 2 years ago, every day the same boring routine.. I was getting depressed and bored with everything I did, until I decided my life had to change 100%. I went to South Korea as an exchange student for a year. This has given me new energy and happiness, now I know what I really want to do with my life. In a couple of months I'm going to New Zealand for my internship to gain more new experiences! I will probably finish my degree in China or Singapore. Finally my days of boredom are over! I would suggest to go abroad for a while, not on vacation but to live there for a couple of months! Take a break from your daily routine! It is an enriching experience, you will meet new people and learn to appreciate new cultures and ways of life. There are lots of opportunities! The important thing to remember is that you should DO it. Dont think or daydream about things you want to do.. just DO IT! I've already done the "drop everything and move to an exptic foreign locale" thing, as you can see by my flag. Guess what - all that shit gets old and boring too. Lhasa or Lima or Louisville, Tokyo or Tacoma or Tuscany - just more of the same. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 26238177 Japan 10/31/2012 05:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When you present people with this issue, it's funny how unsatisfactory the "optimistic" response always is. "Find something you love and make it your life's work" - simply not feasible for most people. Who feels passionate about market research or grocery-clerking or manning a tollbooth or whatever? And yet those are the kinds of choices most people have. Then there is the guilt trip response: "Man up, Nancy, suck it up and deal." Why? So people like you will think I'm an "alpha winnah" instead of a complaining loser? Guess what: that'a just another game, trying to manage people's perceptions so they will think well of you. It leads nowhere except to neurosis and more of the same. How about: "Have some kids, then you won't be bored." No, I won't be...I'll be in a state of terminal anxiety and exhaustion, trying to run the ratrace to scrape up the cash to support the little brats. I'm not about to replace boredom with terror and struggle. If I cut off my leg, shit would suddenly be a lot less "boring" too. Doesn't make things exactly better, though. And the ever popular: " do something crazy...drop everything and run to the other side of the world." Like I said above, I've already tried that. It gets old like everything else. Ditto skydiving and sport-fucking sluts, and other solutions that depend on adrenalin or some kind of fleeting physical pleasure. I've had a dark thought before: Maybe we reincarnate until in one life we realize we've had enough and "take matters into our own hands" to end it. Maybe we are doomed to re-live the cycle of boredom until we do something intentional ourselves to stop it, if you know what I mean. I don't actually believe this is true...but sometimes I wonder. If there is an answer, it probably has something to do with improving focus and concentration, to the point where you can lose yourself in some kind of quasi- mediative state while you focus perfectly on mowing the lawn or whatever. I've had glimpses of this. Problem is it seems hard to obtain and fleeting, at least for me. The jury is still out... I have no final answers. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 26700259 Sweden 10/31/2012 06:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Life is boring on Earth because they refuse to print enough paper money for everybody! Also, the Earth Matrix is based extensive slavery/slave work, the elite won't share their REAL knowledge with their slaves so people FEEL emptiness because of the brain-washing. While the elite involved in intereting issues (like space travel, meeting aliens, using galactic technology) the slaves are bored to death with too long working hours or being without work. Earth itself is beautiful BUT the Matrix is made by reptilians and it's slavery-based so it not fits us, we suffer from it and want to leave. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26238177 Maybe those who kill themselves are breaking the reincarnation bond. While gawk at them and pity them, they are actually leaving behind this world. Maybe suicide is the ultimate decision you can make with your life, the one that finally frees you. That's sort of what I was getting at. Problem is, that line of thought leads to places like this: I dunno, something in me recoils from that. It just doesn't pass the smell test. You never know, but... |
