Relaizing my life is boring

It feels like all i do is work, handle my kids and hang out at home. My friends are often too busy to hang out or playdates are rare. I dont date unfortunately or talk to many people to do so. I feel like i need life to be more exciting. More advantures, go out more or even date around. I dunno. Just feeling meh lately about everything i suppose.

I wish I had an answer or advice, but I do not. My kids are raised and out of my home, I am retired and living where and how I want to live. But I can empathize on the dating side of things with you, because I have yet to have met a woman that would date a person like me. But I go out to places and venues where I won't be hated and harmed for living like I want too.

I know with kids at home it is significantly harder as well. Because I raised mine on my own too.

Good luck.

Have you thought of joining parents groups or even story time at the library where you can meet other parents maybe even single dads. They have arts and crafts classes, or just get out more even if it's to go to a church or something you can go to places where you can take the kids. Do you have a neighborhood app? There may be other moms in your area start your own group. When my girls were younger we did paint parties where the kids played as we painted and listened to music they do it now with their friends

@AngelUnforgiven i live semi rural. And im wicca pagan so church is a no go. Our local library is small. I do go to nearby towns for parks and play and my kids are good with making friends but parents dont talk to me by choice. Im bubbly and friendly but have RBF and dress like an elder goth so many here arent chill with the aesthetic unfortunately.
If you can turn off the computer you will suddenly have lots of free time. I know that is true for me. Go for a long walk in the woods, sit by a creek, draw trees with a pencil or learn to paint.

@JamesBugman i read. Alot. I write but struggling with writers block. And only recently started coming back on here. Me and my kids do go out for walks and such. But still. Not much else.
@XForbiddenDesiresX It sounds like you are focusing too much on things you think you need, and not sure what those things are, VS what you already have.
What does your heart desire?
I have kids too and they basically ignore me. I could die and 3 years later they wouldn't even have noticed, so if your kids are your focus you are doing way better than me. ;)

shy not take up a hobby for you and the kids maybe?

That pretty much my life but without kids. Depressed and bored. I have to suck it up no matter it's going to be the rest of my life.

Life is just an illusion.
@XForbiddenDesiresX doesnt doing those help you be less bored?
XForbiddenDesiresX · 26-30, F
@ExperienceDLT nope. Sometimes people do tire from their hobbies
@XForbiddenDesiresX yea i guess that is true when you get tired of the old hobbies fund new ones

You will meet someone. It will happen.
XForbiddenDesiresX · 26-30, F
@peterlee probably. But not in my favor. I live semi rural and more of an introvert than an extrovert and dont go out much.

@XForbiddenDesiresX There are a lot of guys like that too.

A friend of a friend maybe. Just look for the cues. Someone who wishes to be remembered to you??

Boring is good. Boring is your friend. Embrace the boring.
