I finished school a couple of years ago and I'm not studying or anything, nor do I really have any plans too. I don't like it though, because that's what everyone does and is expected to do, so it's always so awkward when people ask me if I'm studying, and I reply with no.

All I do is work part time at a generic, low paying job. I've never really seen the point in studying in University, or anything, but then it just feels like the older I get the weirder it will be that I'm "not doing anything with my life". I've never really been interested in any career path or anything, so what do I even do?

You can look at some poeple's jobs, maybe you will find a great one.

And you're not required to do something in your life that is related to job.

You can become active in associations or NGOs (like the Red Cross, Sea Shepherd, a community sport club,...), or serve a project of your own.

>>2 Idk, I've never really understood the whole point of spending so much of your time, studying for years, to get a job that will just take up even more of your time. I'm not someone who really needs much money, so I don't get why having a goal like that is the standard.

What do you mean by serve a project of your own?

I guess, to add to what I originally wrote, I'm more of a private person than someone doing nothing. In my spare time I write and plan stories, but haven't told anyone about it, nor plan on connecting it to the me in the real world. And it's not something I ever wanted to be the focus of my income, or relied on in anyway. I just want to take my time figuring everything out for it and writing it, and have no clear plans for when it will be finished.

So let's say that's my "goal in life". The problem is that I just want my irl life to be peaceful, and easy to deal with. I'm not interested in shallow small talk, or "being friends" with most people I meet, and just want things to be less awkward.

As horrible as it sounds, I'm someone who would be fine with moving and living somewhere else. There's no one irl that I'm that close to, or anything holding me back, apart from that it's where my job is and I have no reason to move. All I've been doing is trying to fade away, so that it won't even be too noticeable if I did leave.

I don't know if I said something wrong, or if anyone will even read this, but I guess I felt like getting it out there.

I'll reply if anyone posts, or has any interest in my dilemmas and problems, but if not then I guess this thread will just fade away.
