That guy went off to a few places just to prove he's the big shot. 🙄
Do you really think we're all broke? There are plenty of people out there making great money who still know how to enjoy life—they aren't spiritually bankrupt like some folks on this forum.
If I were as jealous as you and actually started listing everything I've accomplished and all the experiences I've had—with or without kids—you’d just crawl back into your hole and leave only your nose peeking out.
I have such a wonderful connection with my two amazing, grown children. They’re both independent and living on their own now, but we have this incredible relationship that truly enriches my life—honestly, it brings me more joy than a million dolphins, tropical beaches, or cheap thrills ever could.
Sure, we're all just jealous of you. Honestly, I can only feel sorry for you since you're acting like a thirteen-year-old despite claiming you're an adult. To you, a relationship clearly isn't what it's supposed to be.
Well said (regarding the bolded part), regardless of who it was aimed at 😉... That sentence hits the nail on the head. It's impossible for designer clothes, travel, or material wealth to provide the same happiness as the people we love, like a partner or our children. Thinking otherwise is incredibly immature. I can respect someone choosing to stay single for their own reasons, but equating material things to human connection is like saying a dog is better than a child just because a dog is less work.
Shouldn't we have outgrown this mindset somewhere around age fourteen? 🤷 😕..
