I Hate Life

I have been going on this existence for 36 years and I am truly the unloved man. I have no friends and have devoted my life to my wife and 2 kids. Since early on I have always known I am not a loved man. I have never given my family a reason to question me nor have I done anything. But I am not given any benefit of the doubt. I don't fear death and often want to die. I know its not right especially since I have kids, but they will grow up and not need me. A Man who has no friends and basically no life I am just tired. I have given soo much and have nothing but pain and hurt. I just wanted to vent.

For the greater part of my life, I've only had one friend. We're married now, have no kids, and no more friends than each other and the cat.

Gotta look for the silver lining - ain't nobody ever gonna call me at 2 am to tell me they need to be bailed outta jail.

@xixgun You are a very lucky man! To have a loving wife and marry your best friend.

Hello

I understand how you feel. Having no friends doesn't mean you have no life or that you are unworthy of love. You simply have had your priorities right and spent the time with the people who you love and matter the most, your family. That's a good thing.

Sounds like you are a little down on yourself. Be proud of you and all you've done for your family. You can be a friend to you too... and it's never to late to start making some. Even I know it's hard.

There's plenty to live for and to be excited about, you don't always need to people there to be content... try not to focus your happiness on something external because it should come from inside, take care of you

Best

@JammieDodgerHeart I have given up on happiness and honestly feel I just hope to be NOT be Unhappy if that makes sense.

You do have a life. Try to make the best out of it. How about you join an activity that will involve interacting with other people ? I dunno. Could be sports, art or anything.

@SW-User Yes I suppose if my kids move out I will need to do something.

No matter what, your kids will always need you, and they will always love you

@Starchild1983 Yes they will need me until them become teenagers and then will only need money and my car. I only wish them happiness that is all. Money is overrated! I'm Poor and would gladly just be a poor man with a loving family.
