I feel like I have nothing to offer in a relationship, besides friendship. So, what personality traits do you have to possess in order to maybe steer someone from wanting friendship to wanting a relationship? I don’t mean this like getting out of the “friend-zone” I mean like prior to that.
I guess there is not really a secret sauce for this. But generally what did the other person do differently for you that made you want to have a relationship with them, rather than just friendship?
It’s not worth it. Money and material possessions will never reject you. Prioritize what’s important.
Keep burning money bro, I’m sure the next thing you buy will make you feel fulfilled. That’s how that works, right?
Well first you invest the money into passive income sources. And you only burn a fraction of the dividends, and reinvest the majority.
Are you suggesting you need someone else to complete you?
Doesn’t look like I said anything about that in my comment, so not sure where you got that from.
Was I ridiculing your assertion that consumerism will bring anyone long-term satisfaction in life? Yep.
Long-term satisfaction or happiness is a ruse. Contentment is something you constantly have to work at, and nurture, and the activities or items that might help bring you that zen change day to day, year to year.
Money absolutely aids you in that pursuit.
I agree with this statement completely. However, basing your happiness on the things you can afford to buy or buy is an exercise in futility.
Building upon my last comment, I also believe basing your happiness on someone else is also courting disaster. You’ll only find true happiness within yourself.
Then I don’t think there’s necessarily anything to get bent out of shape over, because we probably agree on a lot more than we disagree on. It was probably just my delivery that was crass, and tongue in cheek.
I wasn’t under the impression anyone is bent out of shape about this. I just don’t agree with your assertion.
Okay I’m gonna start prioritising people and connections over money, as that’s more important.
Who wants to be on their death bed surrounded by their dollars and not loved ones.
Networking is really important, when trying to advance your career, or get your foot in the door on new investment opportunities. You’re on the right track!
