The most enjoyment I will ever get out of life is watching tv and playing games

I don't really enjoy anything else in life. I don't like people, traveling, any other activities, I'm not really interested in anything. There are moments that are fun, but overall I'm not that happy about doing anything. Activites that other people enjoy so much are very mediocre of enjoyment for me. I prefer to stay locked in my house, watching tv/movies or playing videogames to pass the time, anything else in life is a chore. I do get the urge to socialize and go places, but after I have I am left unsatisfied.

Most people would call you a loser, but I know how you feel at times. I think it boils down to just not wanting to deal with people anymore. If something is even a long drive away I'm very discouraged to go, unless it's something seriously worth while to me like a sporting event.

Edit: or as Legendaryscmt has just reminded me, the ladies. 8) I'll tolerate a five hour drive for spring break in Miami haha.

I don't often get the opportunity to do that, but when I do it's not that great because it's with someone I don't like that much or isn't that attractive. It's more of a hassle worrying about stds and everything.

I don't think I'll ever find true happiness in life. It depresses me to think I'll be this way forever, I want to have interests in something. I try to get out more, learn new skills, play guitar etc but it's all not really fun for me. I really don't have fun doing anything. Even if I get married and start a family, I might be happy for a while but what if that happiness fades and I lose interest? I always do lose interest in everything.

I've identified what appears to be a crutch between working and being lazy among people. Not scary, but it's intellectually creepy to me. I've also observed that work that is fullfilling and challenging brakes this crutch. Furthermore, I've found that fullfilling work is something that innate interacts with an aspect of your fundamental personality. Reading this over, all this seems very obvious given old social sayings, but it nevertheless surprised me when I originally phrased it.

Maybe you're just hanging with the wrong people? I don't mean they're bad people, but maybe you could diversify your friends.

You are not alone.. If there was no tv, no video games, no entertainment everyone would go crazy. But I wouldnt suggest locking yourself up in your house all the time it's just not healthy.

I'm not good at making new friends. Whenever I'm at parties I try to be social and meet new people but I don't enjoy socializing. I have had different groups of friends in the past and I've haven't enjoyed being around them much either. I think I am the problem, I'm not the coolest person to be around and I lack common sense needed for social situations. I think maybe if I were really smart/charming/good looking or whatever I would enjoy social situations more, but I am who I am.

How do you get invited to parties if you lock yourself in your room and don't socialize? Unless it is a videogame lan party :P

I think you should get out more. Video games can only provide so much.

Getting out and doing something other than TV or video games is easy.

Yeah for you. Open your mind and realize that what is easy to you is nearly impossible.... if not impossible to others.

In which case they need to get outside and see a psychiatrist or psychologist, which is what I'd suggest the TC do.

If you're passionate about TV or videogames you could go on to study and create them, if you're a creative guy, and it could become a hobby. Just a suggestion.

Maybe. And maybe TC has one of those weird captor/captive bonds where they need eachother...he doesn't wanna rat out the person hes become most emotionally attatched to.

If someone is holding a gun to their head and forcing them to play video games and watch TV they get a break. Others do not.

If TV and video games are an inescapable part of your life and you can afford this lifestyle yourself, then by all means go for it; it is much better than not enjoying anything at all.

While those may be all you need, all I have to say is that you are really missing out in life.

Understood. Have Sex then report back. If you feel the same way rinse and repeat until you see the light :) I do understand what your saying though. Parties are only people gathered around drinking these days. The more you drink, the better the party. Way the worlds goin. ppl dont know how to have fun.
