How to find hobbies and make friends
Many of the classic hobbies like hiking and playing board games I find boring. I like to drink and eat good food. But that doesn’t feel like enough Many of the people I know are annoying about eating out (super frugal) so I end up eating alone. I’ve been abusing drugs and alcohol so I’m trying to go sober. I’ve been reading more but that’s not really social. Sure I could join a book club but that’s like what once a month. What do most people do in their free time? Lol Damn I feel so lost, since work is super unsatisfying (I want to quit so bad but don’t want to give up legendary WLB). Am I just a boring person?
Well you could start going to AA. Maybe find the love of your life while you sober up
Yeah lol good call
Honestly I’d recommend Jiu Jitsu, each gym is like a little family, you meet all kinds of interesting people from all walks of life. And you get in great physical and mental shape !
I am very similar to you. Love to eat good food and enjoy a good drink. I actually actively always seek out these. And same goes for reading. I like hiking and board games with good company so that becomes my way of socializing. And most tech people only have these in common so its easier. I believe if you try enough enough board games, there might be some that you would end up liking. Or you can go for a brewery after hike to have something you really look forward to or some nice takeout with board games
Finding the answer myself. But there are more people who are boring than # of people who are not boring. Ordinary lives are supposed to be boring.
There’s so much pressure to be interesting I feel like
I feel you but believe me it's all a facade Like after work, workout & cooking there isn't much left. During the weekends cleaning the entire house, getting groceries takes half a day so I feel realistically there isn't much time left to pursue anything interesting (may be 3-4 hrs per week)
