Every Young Man Needs To Watch This

[nostalgiaa]

I know there are countless number of young men on this forum, who practically isolate themselves from the outside/real world. I've observed loneliness as a common theme among BHWers in a lot of these threads.

And it's only going to get worse as we continue living in the digital world. But, please reconsider your priorities in life. No amount of money will make you happy if you are alone. It's one thing to cut off people who hold you back, but another to completely drop your social life.

Are you promoting yourself? And how young is a young man? I may need to reconsider. haha

No, that is not me in the video.

I just stumbled upon the video and thought it may be relatable to many and insightful to the younger folks on here.

And young is really how you perceive it, but I'd say under 30 lol.

30? I guess I'm too old for that then. hahaha..

thank you so much for sharing this video here,
Maaaan its really hard to experience or the live after 40 without have some one or family in your life really really hard, and that's why I think everyone should pay attention to this important thing because we're not REBOT we're human and Family or someone who loves me give my life more sense, as he said what's the point of traveling if I don't have someone to share with, or no one waiting for him at the home,
Again thank you.

Ah, but to be fair, milestones based on age in life are constantly being rewritten. Everything is being delayed.

30 once meant you should already have a house, a spouse, and children.

That was back when a 30 year old could afford a house. Now nobody can.

To be honest, i didn't watch the entire video. But i'll comment on your text.

I agree. It's not only BHW but also other social media sites (Reddit is a good example as well). It seems to me that people don't like to leave their comfort zone anymore. And for a lot of people leaving the comfort zone also means leaving the house and doing something else besides their regular schedule. Almost seems like robotic behaviour to me .

And it's only going to get worse as we continue living in the digital world. But, please reconsider your priorities in life. No amount of money will make you happy if you are alone. It's one thing to cut off people who hold you back, but another to completely drop your social life.

Unfortunately thats what it seems like. And i've been there. I've had a time in my life where i was completely cut off from my social circle and it's not as bad actually, until you realize in your head that you actually don't have a social circle anymore.

One major problem i also see in the current society is that people are very secretive and sensitive about everything. I am not sure how it is in other countries (maybe its way better in US), but here in Germany when you are talking to a stranger you are being looked at as some kind of weirdo. Unless you are of course at a party and drunk because "Hey, everyone can be socially active when they are drunk". Literally 80% of the population here (In Germany) have a giant stick up their ass and are socially fucked. And i am not the only one that thinks like that.

And its usually the younger generation that have the stick up their ass. I can talk normally with an older person in the gym for 3 minutes straight, but when i talk to some younger people they'll always give me a short answer and just walk away lol.

So you think we're all autistic incels?

I think getting a hobby, stopping substance abuse, and taking care of yourself (gym, haircut, etc.) is helping a lot.

Everyone is wired differently. Just because the guy in the video has trouble with doing things solo, doesn't mean everyone does. Figure out who you are and what makes you happy. If that's isolation, then so be it. Who is anyone to judge?

I watched 2 min of your video. I didn't watch full video. Total Fuck get out of depression. You're taking with full depression in your face. Life is a game. Let everyone play their game.

I agree with you and appreciate the many comments you've made. As for the younger generation not being able to hold conversations, I think it can be attributed to a combination of a lack of life experiences and exposure to social situations (which older people typically have had more time and experience with to craft their social skills).

That said, times are changing and even though humans are social animals, and innate feelings of loneliness drive us to desire social interactions and relationships, it's being substituted by social media since like you've mentioned, people don't like to leave their comfort zones. More people are also glued to their phones, which leads to fewer experiences and less things to talk about.

And evidently with the tech boom, anxiety and depression is increasing, as well as something as obscure like telephobia (fear of phone calls). Social skills are like a muscle. You need to consistently train it or you will lose it.

That was back when a 30 year old could afford a house. Now nobody can.

You're missing the point, mate. And it isn't just finances, it's a result of technology, advancements in medicine, etc.

Great job basing your opinion on the video in 2 minutes. I'm sure a video that has resonated with hundreds of thousands of people in a matter of months means absolutely nothing.

I'm not here to give advice nor am I here to judge anyone. It's a honest video that one can learn from depending on the user. If you don't like this thread, feel free to click off. “Let everyone play their game.”
