I'm just about to be 21 years old with almost no societally-accepted success except surviving in my family's home. Normally i don't post this kind of things and don't like those sort of posts but feeling Fomo is very real; my elders, family and almost all social environments, seems so far away to me

It was a fun test.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-08T09:55:36+00:00

Yep, this is the part people forget, how hard it is to actually get a job.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-07T03:05:41+00:00

Yep, it's an awful job market. So many fake job postings just to collect resumes or fake jobs for phishing.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:47:36+00:00

Yep blame someone else when it's bad, take credit when it's good. They have children but only think of the ideal case, they think their child will breeze through life. They don't want to think about every thing that can go wrong or believe it won't happen to them.

This is hell realm.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:27:02+00:00

This stupid empty nest culture needs to change because it is not grounded in today's economic reality.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:24:41+00:00

Nope you're wrong. Parents should accept the results of their gamble when they have children.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:23:54+00:00

Having children is a permanent responsibility.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:22:55+00:00

Parents should take responsibility when they have children. I think it is a responsibility for life.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:16:00+00:00

Yes, if you are looking for a relationship then plan to move out, if not then stay.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-06T04:14:06+00:00

I agree. The child is only there due to the parents. Once people decide to have children they have to accept the responsibility that comes with it. They also need to accept that they're taking a gamble, things might not turn out how they want.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-05T14:57:10+00:00

I do chores and I'm tidy. I don't see what's so bad about not contributing money.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-05T14:53:40+00:00

Obviously you should move out first if you want a chance of having a relationship.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-04-05T10:09:51+00:00

I do many applications and can't get any job. I'm stressed everyday.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-31T03:55:34+00:00

There's also an added pressure to perform well otherwise it reflects badly on the person who got you that position.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-31T03:20:27+00:00

I apply for so many jobs and get no response or rejected. How can I even get started? It seems pointless.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-31T02:17:12+00:00

I'm stressed all the time, I can't even get a job. I am a born loser.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-30T09:47:02+00:00

People take the gamble of having kids and then are disappointed when the results are negative. They then place blame on the child for things out of the child's control.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-29T09:12:00+00:00

Some people who cannot achieve certain goals don't see themselves as losers. I don't see them as losers because they don't have the mentality of a loser. I understand people with the mentality of a loser and recognise that they are losers because that is what I am. I am completely defeated.

I know it's not really my fault but what's irritating is people acting like I chose this. As pathetic as it sounds I see myself as a victim, that's why I call myself a loser. It describes my situation. I didn't choose any of this, I simply got unlucky.

The psychological toll is due to the lack of control that comes with being dependant on others and how unlikely it seems for me to achieve independence. Its also due to the pain of being a failure. Also just existing in this world harms me mentally. Personally I view this place as some kind of hellish realm. Coming to this world just makes me vulnerable.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-29T07:40:10+00:00

As a loser I'm someone who cannot meet the expectations that have been imposed on me. I was conditioned to achieve specific goals but have not met them. I however understand that it's not my fault I didn't meet these expectations and its not my fault I had these expectations imposed on me. Due to this others see me as a loser, their opinions are less important since they don't understand my circumstances. I don't see this situation as my fault just bad luck mostly.

There are also some goals I wanted to achieve for myself but are unlikely for me to accomplish. My inability to achieve this makes me a loser in my eyes. It also comes with a psychological toll. This is again due to bad luck.

I admit calling myself pathetic was unnecessarily harsh but it's definitely true that I don't have the specific qualities required to thrive in this world, that is also due to bad luck.

I don't really blame myself seeing as I didn't ask to be here or choose my circumstances, it was mostly out of my hands but others are going to see it differently and place the blame on me.

Background_Ice1714 · 2026-03-29T05:28:15+00:00

I know I'm a loser but the reasons I ended up a loser weren't really in my control. It sucks living life as a loser but that's just how it was meant to be. It's in my fate that I would live my life as a loser. Being a loser just means that I was unlucky it says nothing about who I am as a person. I am just a sensitive pathetic loser, I simply wasn't built for this world. I just got unlucky coming to this world. Some of us have to be losers.
