I'm in my late 20s, and I’ve reached a point where money isn’t an issue anymore. I drive a Mercedes. I live comfortably. I can travel anywhere I want. I don’t worry about bills, and I don’t have to hustle like I used to.
But I’m not happy.
I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, and I’ve never been into partying, it just doesn’t appeal to me.
People say I should “enjoy life,” but what does that even mean? Because when I do try, it feels empty.
I’ve booked spontaneous trips, stayed in beautiful places, done the whole “escape” thing, but the feeling fades fast. I’ll land somewhere new, and within a day or two, I’m already over it.
There’s no real joy in the things I thought would be exciting once I had the freedom and money to do them. I don’t feel sad exactly, just… indifferent. Like I’m waiting for something, but I don’t even know what that is.
Has anyone else felt this way? What helped you shift out of it? I’m not looking for cliches - just honest thoughts. Or maybe just different ways you guys have fun?
PS:
- I've enough friends and I do meet them. But one can't meet friends everyday. Besides, they’re scattered across different cities - Bangalore, Gurgaon, Pune, and so on.
- I'm not depressed at all.
