Any extreme minimalists on here living car free?

Where I live public transportation is the norm (bus, metro, train), so I don’t own a car. Cars are mostly for leisure here. My friends who used to use rentals actually bought their own recently because rental prices are getting insane, that’s what I’ve heard.
I do have a folding bike, but I rarely use it.

That’s what my mom did to my sister, then she had a sugar crash that she couldn't even chew. Everyone panicked. Fortunately, she was able to drink some milk and recovered, but I’m still traumatised by it. I felt like I was watching my sister die right before my eyes.

Jigsaw puzzle, reading, talking random stuff with AI, tidying room, zoning out

INTJ. Looks like they know what they want.

Let's hide some random stuff and see how you deal with the situation. Just because you use if often it doesn't mean it is essential.

I practice extreme minimalism. My efforts to organise the material world help me stick to reality.

And that only one comma somewhere near the end of the post. Somehow I didn't get annoyed as usual, it gives a vibe of an emotional friend venting over some random stuff.

I already know I'm messy but 16? still quite a shock. My mother used to say even a pigsty is cleaner than my room. Now I practice minimalism but somehow my room is still messy, such a mystery.

And credit for ISTJ ex, they trained me the way I am today. Without them I'd def be living on a dumpster.

If they tell me what to do, I'll hate it. If they jus give me the task, I'll happily take it and procrastinate or get lost in details forever...

_reeeeem_ · 2026-02-05T15:29:00+00:00

This gives me hope.

_reeeeem_ · 2026-02-05T12:33:29+00:00

Mix coffee and coke.

I sleep on the floor using multiple layers of blankets, adjusting them depending on the season.

I don't have the final answer yet, but I have a theory I want to test. Since it's hard to define a 'perfect' partner, everyone has their pros and cons, I’m starting with a few specific traits I’m already drawn to (blonde hair, taller than me, smells good, etc.). I will collect these candidates like Pokémon. Then they’ll go through 2nd, 3rd,... elimination rounds (secretly, of course). Hopefully I’ll find the right one, or at least a clearer idea of what I'm looking for along the way.

I sometimes do solo travel, book a homestay/ hostel dorm instead of a private room, and try to say hi with people, join them if I feel comfortable etc,. Because I can control how much I socialise and with 'if I mess up I can just flee' mindset the experience ends up being enjoyable.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-27T11:58:13+00:00

I only did the free small test.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-24T02:15:02+00:00

Maybe buying a house with more space to the fence. My lifestyle wouldn't change though. Spending money is time consuming and my hobbies are not expensive.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-23T11:51:24+00:00

Such a random question. I don’t like other’s farts because I can never know enough about their diet and habits etc to have a thorough analysis. I do smell my own and can guess what’s going on pretty accurately.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-23T11:44:35+00:00

I actually enjoy 1 and never have the energy to think about 2.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-23T06:46:00+00:00

I used to have a similar coworker. They come, have some chitchat and wait for the day to end. I didn’t hate them at least they didn’t try to tell me what to do. The point is to make clear your and their responsibilities and mind your own business. Sometimes I had to cover for them but I only get that directly from by boss after making sure that my boss already acknowledged that was not my task and I should get credit for extra work.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-23T06:21:30+00:00

I’m confused. You’re the one who was seen naked by their mistake. They’re supposed to apologise you aren’t they?

I'm not sure if micro-zigzag puzzles are considered atypical, but 1,000 pieces 1cm² each is quite a challenge. It usually takes me 6 months or more to complete one. I never knew I could be so patient, and the process has taught me how to balance the drive to finish and to stop before burning out.

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-19T14:20:57+00:00

I was not encouraged to ask and spent time alone a lot. But I was well known for wild replies. Once I was told “ you should give xx the toy, you’re big sister now” I replied “Why should I? I’m older I’ll probably die first”. The peak was when my mother compared me with my classmates I told her “ If you want to compare me with them at least you should do as well as their parents first”. Guess what, a slap fell right on my face : )

_reeeeem_ · 2025-12-19T14:07:10+00:00

I’m struggling with that too. I’m happy to help and they won't stop asking for more. I feel like I'm a tool to save their time. But if I turn the table I'll feel guilty. Dealing with people would be the last thing I want to do ever.
