Life is becoming so hard 😔

Holi hai? Diwali hai? So what, nothing to enjoy. Lets spend the day laying on the bed, watching stuff over phone. Feeling less and less disconnected with friends, to the point where I feel I don't even have friends. College friends are based in another city. Didn't even try to make friends at workplace. Stuck alone in my homecity as past 6 years I was based somewhere else completing my grad and preparing for jee. Prior to that focused a lot on studies. So had little to no interaction with people during academics. And now when I have time and money to spend, there is noone with whom I can have fun with.

Instagram drives fomo have created epidemic of status driven consumption like ₹2500 for a one hour class of pottery, strawberry picking for Rs. 2000. What happened to free activities like playing morning cricket or enjoying IPL finale with your best friends / family . Bangalore economy is running on fomo

Is it just me or people in general have a lot less patience and courtesy now ? The other day a young lad parked his bike right in the middle of parking lot entrance. I politely asked him to park to either side of the entrance and he acted as if I had asked for his kidneys. Rude in his response and offended for no reason. Even in general I find the courtesy or politeness quotient go down over the last few years. There is more arrogance, irritation, anger and attitude. Have you experienced the same ?

Maybe it was there already but I wasn't noticing it earlier but now a days I feel just too much hatred and frustration in people for each other. I wonder why.

my parents have done 3x better than me.. one working, 2 kids and 3bhk house at age 30.. can't imagine this nowadays

Anyone else facing this?

Can any millenial perform such high stunts?

My 2 cents to future Richie Rich parents: Kids are growing up in a fast paced and curiosity driven environment. the dopamine hit is crazy on kids these days. I would not simply blame social media for all of these uncultured activities which are taken up by kids these days. But the generation is growing up that way. We have to help out our next generation to take up a sport or an artform to learn discipline. Which leads them in the right way shows them life is not easy .

I have three younger cousins. They don't want to code. They have their clarity. They don't want to pursue any particular engineering stream as well. They want to get a decent paying job. Let's say 6-8 lpa start with a path to 15-20 lpa in 4-5 years. I tried advising them to not invest a lot of money and four years of time in engineering. Their family is average middle class financially. I told them that I'll advise you what all to learn like content writing, seo, data analytics etc. So do a simple course, save money and rather invest in something that matters for job. They did listen but did not get confidence to act. All three went for engineering stream. These are private colleges with tier 3ish names. Now they don't get time to put a lot of time because 8-4 is usually college time. Unlike tier 1,2 college where you get campus and a lot of freedom, the colleges usually have a lot of classes and compulsory 80% type attendance. Did you face similar situation? What did you advise? Do you think I was giving them right decision?
