Hello all,
I am 31 and cringe at the sound of myself stating that I am in an uncategorized relationship with a woman that is about 25yrs older than I. For me I feel old and used up to the point I have forgotten how to have fun or make anything enjoyable for myself or others. Nothing seems to be "FUN" or "Enjoyable" anymore it all just seems well for a lack of better words "shitty". I have lost almost all of my friends due to life/location changes, Alcohol/Drug addictions EX. Stealing from me to support their problems or other various treasonist acts. I feel like life has lost it's "Spark" and I have done all that I can afford to do and I don't know what to do to fix this. I live in the middle of nowhere which is great most of the time (low crime rates) but sucks when I want to get out and try to have fun because nothing's ever going on and when it is I am surrounded by country bumpkins and that's all they know and listen to and I don't. I used to love to party (drinking was actually fun) Then soon became very boring and pointless. At this point I have no answers for myself and feel lost. I dunno maybe I have just become a cynical asshole.

    Maybe you should move if you can that is.

    My advice to you bro is to re-start your life a bit; find new friends, a fun job in a city that is alive and you'd want to stay in for a few years. Also, you're young, you need to find yourself a really smart, fun and equally young lady friend who can spice up your life. Cheers man hope this works out for you.

    I am younger and I already feel this way. Everything just seems pointless and boring. Nothing is exciting anymore.

    I moved from my city to 5 miles outside of it 2 years ago and while I love being in my own place again it's badly hampered my social life. Mates who used to be a 15 min walk away are now 90 mins. I don't have a local pub anymore with people I know in it. I used to go drinking with mates most Saturday nights but my last bus leaves at 11pm so if I want a decent night out I have to walk home. Drunk, it can take forever so I rarely bother.

    Thing about socializing is,, not only is it fun but it keeps you 'social'. If you're isolated, it's all too easy to spiral into depression. Sounds like that's happening to you. Think about moving back or embrace bumpkin life. Sitting indoors is doing you no good. 30's is WAY too young to give up on having fun.

    I agree with the other posts, that you need a change. Maybe you can accomplish this living where you do, but it doesn't sound like it. Also, it's all you, and what you make of life.

    I hate to say it, but it's hard to be in the middle of everything when you're in the middle of nowhere. The country is not for everyone. I, too, love living in isolation, surrounded by trees, but when I'm in the city I feel like I can accomplish things. Adriftin is right. You need change.

    I know it sounds like I'm stating the obvious, but I doubt you've ever really stopped to consider the words... "It's time for a change.". Make it happen.
