Do you want more in life?

[Fuma]

How? Please do no post anything inappropriate.

Oh oh. You and Mr Blu having problems? I never thought that could happen

Are you satisified with the usual path that one takes in life IE school > studies > married > 2 kids > dog > white picket fence (with electric fencing) > job for 30 years and die?

Seems that you get people who aren't happy or satisfied with that 'normal'
life and always strive for something more. They have to be different and unique - or they 'fail' in their eyes. They're seldom ready to settle down, otherwise bordeom sets in.

Who are you?

Personally, I could follow the 'normal' path with a little bit of excitement here and there.

*sigh*

Someone feeling sorry for themselves?

I pretty much prefer the "normal" life i.e ... a good job, smart wife and two kids... no dogs for me thanks.

Well, I chose last week to follow a colorful life.. that means I'm not following the 'normal' trend

You turned gay?

I am thankful for what I have, for there will always be someone who has more and someone who has less.

I tend to be thankful for what i had in the past, and never seem to enjoy what i have going on now... I do envy you for thinking the way you do, because whatever i seem to be doing, i want to be doing something else...

All this positivity and optimism!

Shutup and stop questioning society. Go buy what TV tells you to buy and shutup. Bow down to your god, listen to your teachers, respect your elders, love your wife, and believe that it's all right. Because it is. Believe. Buy. Believe. Buy. Especially buy. But believe too.

I'd love normal. Normal means support. Normal means you don't have to sit and listen to the voices in your head. Normal means she can get a job and you can build your future together before the kids and retire at a young age and go on a cruise ship and see the world together....

Mmm... brings me to something I always wondered about.... If I do find my SO (well, question is for those who have)

Would you prefer to die before or after your SO?

Looking at my gran when my grandad died... and my uncle when my aunt died... I don't think I could handle that...

i don't think there is a normal... LOL!!! even if its done in that order it'll never be normal cause noone is normal everyone is special...

I feel if i find the one i know i want to spend the rest of my life with then yipee!!!

Its rather terrifying how much some of my family & friends are trying to push me into certain traps of a "normal" life. Or at least what I see as a normal life.

I don't want to be trapped by debt, married young (under 27), struggle with a bond or stay in one job for 30 years. I'm lucky to have been headhunted from each of my previous jobs at the point where I needed a change of scenery or pace.

I have a friend who spends 4 months of the year running his landscaping business in NYC, then the rest of the year traveling and writing guidebooks about these remote, amazing places. That's something feasible I could do with my qualifications.

I know if I my SO & I were married now, had a bond, 2 car repayments, credit cards, a couple of kids and 9-5 office jobs (that we can't leave because of all that debt); I'd have to kiss my dream goodbye. Right now I'm working towards being self-sufficient enough to make that out-the-box dream come true. If we do have kids, I don't want them to grow up in one country.

If all else fails I'll have to become a diplomat or marry one, lol

Agreed

The idea of being married, having a dog, debt, car payments, house, and not even speaking about going through something like pregnancy and raising little monsters is just not for me. Plus I don't believe in marriage.

I'd rather kill myself right now that do the above....

I'd like excitement, something other that "normal"

But I'll still take the dog.

Keep in mind, a dog by definition must grow bigger than knee-height. Anything smaller is a toy/snake food.

Disagree. Bassets are dogs AND they have personality

A wife, house, kids and a dog sounds quite exciting to me.

maybe....If I've been living in a bubble all my life.....
