I just gave up, it's just easier for my mental health.
To anyone that manages to work 9-5 and grind dating + hobbies. you're a god and a legend. good for you.
I work 8:30-16:30 and the I have hours left with my wife. We spend that time walking in parks, puzzling, dancing, debating, watching art, watching movies or TV shows... We have so much time!
I dont really have hobbies anymore because I prefer spending all my time with my wife, and I'm ok with that.
It's not that hard, really, I think. Just... Touch grass, go outside, stop doom scrolling, go find a hobby you love, find people and remember that everyone is flawed, so am I
Idk why this is getting downvoted. Sounded wholesome. I can see people disagreeing on the giving up hobbies party, but it’s also really easy to make judgments from an outside perspective. Me and my partner do have hobbies and we do appreciate our alone time, but I also aspire to do more puzzles and quality time things together.
Jealous and desperate people
