I mention that sometimes this is the case and there's nothing wrong with that. But you don't necessarily need a degree to do meaningful work or to chase your dreams, just effort.

I think I'm being pretty reasonable. If anything, I stated my opinion and I'm being attacked for it. I'm not trying to play victim, but all the feedback I've gotten from this comment is hostile
I'd imagine that for some jobs (seasonal etc) there is too much variation in a month-to-month basis
My second and most recent one was tough. She was a good girl and incredibly mature for her age (we were 22 when we broke up), and truthfully I wasn't ready for that kind of a relationship and still had some exploring to do.
We used to catch up once a year or so, but she has a partner now who doesn't like me seeing her and while I'm sad about it, I respect it and promised not to reach out until she does. I'm over her and not holding my breath, but if she ever does I'd definitely consider giving it another shot. Turns out that girls like that are few and far between.
Dodged a RPG there my friend
Would definitely see if they get motion sick first
While I do think you should keep an open mind, some people and conversations are definitely more interesting than others
Any conversation that really makes you think
I think it's less about "proofing" your life and instead embracing it. Seek it out. All good opportunities (your dream job, the girl you want) require you to take risks with a real chance of rejection. Get good at being rejected, even enjoy it, so that you can persevere and try and try again until you get what you want.
I clearly state that sometimes people gotta work just to get by and I respect that. But for many of us, especially here on lemmy who tend to be older, this isn't the case. I get that it's a touchy subject, no-one wants to be told they are lazy or that they're living their life wrong, but I believe that there's some truth to it. I don't know what the sollution is, but I think admitting to it a society is the first step.
