Hello.
I've always received great advice from strangers on the internet. I'm hoping this occasion will be no different.
I'm entirely unsatisfied with the structure of my life. I have a great job and plenty of money. But I don't have fun. Most people work because they need the money. I work because I have nothing else to do. That sounds really sad actually and it kind of is.
Every weekday I wake up and go to work. Then I come home. Some nights I play sport. On the weekends I rarely do anything.
I'm basically over work. I've had enough of it. My ideal life would consist of going to theme parks, travelling to other cities or countries, and playing sport and doing other recreational activities. For me such a lifestyle would not be limited by practicalities like money or family commitments. I could totally quit my job tomorrow and do this. All I dream about at night is doing fun stuff like that. But in reality I sit in an office all day and sit at home on weekends.
My problem is that I don't know many people. I could stop working and then try to do all of these fun things but I would be doing them alone and that would not be fun. I'm not outgoing and I wouldn't make friends or be able to meet people. I would just end up getting depressed and looking for a job.
What I want out of life is nowhere near what is happening in my life now, and I fear that this might go on indefinitely. I feel like I'm wasting my life.
What should I do?
