The money's not great, but I've been doing it for 27 years and still get a buzz out of my students. In good circumstances, teaching is a fun job, and even if it isn't for you, I imagine it can lead to other job opportunities: surely any interviewer understands and respects the skills needed to be a teacher.

I've made decisions thinking it was about the girl but really it was about how making the decision would make me feel at the end of the day. It's like when a person gives money to a homeless person to make themselves feel better. "Look at what a nice thing I did. Good job, Exo. That was the right decision." Meanwhile, that homeless person just took your money and did whatever it is they do with money from strangers, leaving you on your nice cloud of self importance. It's out of your control because you didn't control the situation in order to drive an outcome for them. You control the situation to drive an outcome for yourself.

Homie, until you find somebody that makes you forget about your natural selfishness for a few moments each day, you're always going to feed the #1 person in the relationship, which is yourself.
This 100%

1) Do you live in the USA?
2) Yes. I’m positive.
3) No offense taken. In fact, that’s a compliment afaic

This is one reason I'm not that concerned with getting a girlfriend. A **** buddy would be ace but an actual girlfriend would be putting a pretty name on me getting fulfillment out of the concept of having a girlfriend. I ain't fit to be nobody's partner. Not at the moment at least.

You're forgetting the fact that most people are giving up their time for somebody else. They're looking for somebody as well. They're looking for somebody to share not only the life of their partner, but for their partner to share theirs lives as well.

So what? You’re talking about real altruism. Any good partnership is mutually beneficial. If you make a life commitment you gotta be ready to see someone through paralysis or death or mental illness but yeah buddies who **** is how it starts. You’re nice to woman. You have sex. That’s a girlfriend. Don’t pretend like you’re not there yet or something. All you need is a smile, some kind words, and a hard dick.
