Are you happy with your life?

I'm 24 and still single with almost zero close friends whom I interact with daily. I'm not feeling well from past few weeks.

Yes 💯
No 😞

If you are financially capable or even not,

  • Hit the Gym 5-6×/week
  • Eat clean diet
  • Go on solo treks to any part in India
  • Strictly avoid bars/clubs and parties
  • Sleep 8-10 hours

I don't know if this will make you happy but surely you will not have the time to be sad. You haved avoided 50% of your problems without a gf. Don't alter it.

Do a physical transformation, everything will fall into place. In the process you will get everything you mentioned you want and even more.

Atleast this playbook helped me. Sharing from experience

We live in an era where we constantly compare ourselves with others without knowing their complete story. Yes there are people who are lucky and get what they want easily and there are others who have to work harder even for smaller things in life.

The grass is always greener on the otherside. Friends or GF cannot make you happy.

Try below things if you are not following it currently.

  1. Do social work on weekends
  2. Play games 🎮 (not great in my opinion but can divert you)
  3. Be fit and eat what you like (if you eat junk do extra workout)
  4. Learn a musical instrument (go to physical classes)
  5. Go to office once a week if you do not have a toxic workplace.
  6. Listen to good instrumental songs before going to sleep. It can reduce stress and give you good REM and deep sleep.
  7. Avoid news altogether mostly fear mongering and stressful.
  8. Join a club of your interest.

I attended 2 years of college via Gmeet. So less friends and occasionally talk with college friends.

I see. Then what do you want in your life? Do you want friends here in bangalore? Here's what you can do -

  1. Figure out your interests
  2. Explore activity clubs
  3. Be consistent in the clubs that you end up liking, you'll eventually land up with friends.

How about making friends in the office? Don't expect daily interaction with them, but try to do activities together?

I was and will always be like this. I am happily married,but all the acquaintances are from my wife's side. I don't have a friend here in BLR. It does bother, but not that much. My suggestion - try to pick atleast one sport. Try to be part of some weekend football meet , tennis etc. Don't expect to make friends there - but you will spend quality time.

Start working out, join hobby classes, go to some fancy restaurant and eat a good meal. Try meetups and meet people.

Not everything will fall into place in one go but it will eventually.

Also have a good routine. Sleep properly, eat healthy and take some sunlight.

I have been working from home for the past two years. Recently, I ended a four-year relationship with my girlfriend. Now, I find myself without any friends, and my mental health has suffered greatly. As a result, I have made the decision to move to another city. While being single can have its advantages, it's important to acknowledge and celebrate it, I believe.

Doing something that takes you closer to nature has been proven to be better for mental and physical well being. Adopting a pup / taking up gardening could be interesting activities to pick up and learn something new.
