never heard of that term before

Usually people that shame your passions can't understand because they have none.

I made it up.

controlled obsession = passion . yeah and true

In general, people are shit. But it's not their fault.

my mum is only driven by money

has no idea why she got into tax

30 years in a career

and still doesn't know why she started it

Welp. Pays the bills.

They say make a career out of what you're good at, not what you love.

.... that's what they say.

yeah - but i don't understand how you can go through a career and never ask yourself the question 'why am i doing all of this?"

People have different tolerances for why they do things. Like some people would say what's she's doing is wasting her time. Other people would say do what helps you survive.

Many people say that they make their decisions to "take care of their family".

That's why I would never have kids unless I was retired.

Fuck allat for the family BS.

'i work to support you'

lmao

emotionally black-mailing a 10 year old

exactly

xD

'i do this because i love you'

fucking hell

it's not her fault

i had this argument with my dad how i owe him 2 days ago

but she needs to understand that she's not persuading me with logic but with emotional blackamil

'unless you specificly picked me from all your other spermatozoids, i owe you nothing' and thats that for him :3

I think the problem is, most people don't dream. Dreams create goals and goals make plans. Plans create fear for fucking them up. Since people don't do those things, they go about life doing whatever. Next thing you know they have kids, debt, shitty jobs. Then they ask how they got there and place their grief on their loved ones.

@Commanda Knuckel nice one

@MufflePuff yeah exactly - it's a sad cycle

tis what it tis

🍻 Good on everyone here for finding MGTOW young as fuck.
