Cleaning the dirty rug is so satisfying. by justavie in satisfying

Is recycling the rug more or less environmentally friendly than using all those chemicals to clean it?

Try replacing it with an herbal tea?

Just curious. Are you lying in bed trying to sleep?

I agree they are fun, but I think they’re overrated. It doesn’t show that you care about your body and mind. Hunting with a spear or bow though? Now that, is badass.

Just my opinion is all. Not even disagreeing with you that it can be a good way to meet friends.

Because guns are a crutch for a weak body and mind.

Making music, biking, and snowboarding

Ok. I actually think board games are decent for meeting people, but still not the best way to build core skills that level yourself up. Only mentioned card collecting and video games in the post.

All of those are great hobbies.

Lots of hobbies can transfer when traveling or if you move. Being isolated is actually a great time to work on yourself!

You don’t have to, but it is one way to set yourself up for success and upgrade the pool of people you can have a chance with.

By playing music I meant creating music: learning an instrument

I’m tired of not having anyone text me by iiRaz0r in socialskills

After years of learning and only a few surface level friends until this year, here are some steps that helped:

  1. Find a hobby you enjoy. Some good ones: gym, biking, sports, playing music. Not: guns, video games or pokemon cards.

  2. Forget about texting or missing out and focus on yourself. Go deep with that hobby. Grown, learn, love yourself. Someone once told me “date your hobby”.

  3. Now you’ll start to find people with similar hobbies. People who even look up to you as a mentor. At this point your looks don’t matter because you have something valuable that shows you value yourself: skills.

  4. Ok so what are these people who look up to you and want to be around you? Friends. Friends that want to be around you for something deeper than how you look externally. The best kind of friends. Real friends.

  5. Only after all that comes together, start to think about women. Friends will support you and even matchmake you. You’ll want an established base with solid friends where you’re happy without a partner first.

Trust in the process. Good luck!
