see, there you go assuming i have caring family; what ive got is a mother who abandoned me, a father who disowned me when i refused to keep financing his bullshit, and a grandmother who i can only live with due to her steadily fading grip on reality... or that existing is a good thing; i find nothingness to be an equally valid option at this point in my life.
while id like to consider myself lucky im not the limbless orphan lapping ass sweat of public benches for nourishment, beyond arguably stable finances..ive got nothing. i have the basic necessities down; ive no real threat of starvation or freezing under the night sky... but ive pretty much got a life that i CAN continue, with no real reason to beyond the promise of the future. and the future is increasingly bleak.
i would happily welcome a moderate tenure as a diseased african orphan hiding from murderous raiders every day; im sure it would make my normal life somewhat more bearable. at least threats of death and torture are a better motivation to go about the daily routine then ive currently got.
i get where your coming from OP, i really do. youve no idea how annoying those people can be when your just trying to get on with your own shitty life, not wasting any time complaining, and these people come along bitching about problems youd kill to have. sure, its far from the worst life i could have, but people with those miserable lives have their miserable neighbors to share it with.
misery loves company, and i have none. i suppose a slightly below-average life can seem much worse when you only have much greater ones to compare it to.....but fuck that. my life may not be that bad compared to the 3rd world, but it is utterly unlivable compared to those around me. ill be as selfish and jealous as i please, because i honestly have nothing else to keep me going.
