Well who are you apt to possibly bump into at the video store? Possibly a single lass? Wouldn't THAT be fantastic!
I was in the same boat... You have to start looking at older. The younger don't care nor are they interested. Find one in her/his mid 30's (not sure if you're male or female) and see how much you have in common. Bet it works out for you!
I don't think he sounds egotistical, I think he sounds honest. What's wrong with stating the truth? He's 25. Truth. If he makes more than minimum wage, he's richer than I am. Truth. He travels the world. Truth. He drinks alone. Truth.
That's the problem with people, they are always so quick to pound the "Omg he's egotistical" button as soon as someone states a fact that they are better than someone else. Guess what? Sometimes it's true.
Would you call Lance Armstrong egotistical for saying that he can bike better than you? No. You'd call him honest.
I think we ought to congratulate people on their ability to speak their mind. We should commend them for high self-esteem. We should not jump to the "He's egotistical, think less of him" alternative.
find the local corner dive bar, and drink there. i promise that you won't drink alone for long. people at neighborhood dives are eccentric and gregarious.
it's the attitude that money makes you a better person. if you think money counts when it comes to true value, you'll end up alone. unless you are lucky or don't mind a hollow existence
#6- Whether or not he makes more money or travels the globe is irrelevant to what would make him egotistical in this instance.
To expand onto your metaphor, Lance Armstrong would be being egotistical if he just wandered up to someone and said, "I can bike better then you." The validity of the statement is wholly irrelevant, much like the income of someone who is talking about being lonely.
I don't think this person is being egotistical at all. Loneliness can be felt on any level of society, whether you're at the bottom or the top. I recently quit drinking alone after 3 years of destroying myself almost every night. My friends and family had no idea. I live a very comfortable life too. It was very hard to quit but I feel much better now, physically and mentally. (Plus I look way better now from all the weight I lost after I put down the bottle. ZING!)
I am also 25 years old. I don't know if I make more money than you, but I do a lot better than most people my age. I own my own business. I am in the IT/Security Consulting field. I have traveled the world (business and pleasure). Yet, until almost two years ago I was alone. I could get any above average looking woman in my same age range to sleep with me/be with me, but most of them couldn't keep up with my life style to stay in a relationship with me. Until I met her in Italy, and I realized that there was a Niche of women ages 27 - 35 that I could exploit. They are good looking, sophisticated, and, most important, more emotionally mature than your average 22 year old bimbo. It's excellent. So heed the first (and my) poster's advice. Try to get someone a little older. You will have fun.
hmmm... 25 years old, makes more money than all of us, and traveled the world, but yet drinks alone. i have no idea, dickhead. if you couldnt answer your own idiotic question i think its safe to say your lying.
There's more to life than ourselves. If you live for yourself, you'll get what you worked for--yourself...and you'll get really sick of yourself eventually.
