I have a level minded head, I think normal I act normal... I even give good advise to people. But for some reason I can't help myself even if my life depended on it. Motivation is hard to come by and I could sit in one spot for hours without having the urge to get up and go places.

I'm not a Fat slob, and I'm not really lazy;however, I just feel Intellectually unchallenged by everything and everyone around me. granite I love being able to think in depth and solve stuff, Hell I even have Excellent Comprehension skills... and yet I still feel like I'm incomplete and fading away.

To be honest I kind of feel like I'm alone in my journey in life. I mean I am single but still I feel like sometimes with no one next to me that it's due to my age and the part of me that is still young, But damn I wish people could see more of the adult within my attitude and within my complexity in which I think.

Being able to support someone is understandable, but knowing I have the capacity in which to love and cherish those in which I hold dear to me, Friends, family, a lover.. It just tears me all up inside.

don't feel sad Busy!

I got to know you a bit better now and I think you are a fine man.

don't rush your life...all things in due time, before you know it it's over and it's sad if you would feel regrets when old.

Oh Busyguy, sometimes the brain keeps flipping over and the body is just too too tired to deal with it....sighhhh Lots of heavy stuff will come out and for some reason we humans think we have to solve everything immediately....Write this stuff down, and deal with one problem at a time... U really sound like a ole soul in a young body and trust me, one day they will catch up with one another...Good luck and let us on CS help when we can.... wave

Thanks Ladies for the comments, they do help.

I guess that brain flipping could drive a person up the wall if it continuously happened on a daily basic. Yeah, I know they'll meet up one day, I guess it's all about having to live with a aged brain and a young physical appearance.

It's not easy that's for sure.

You are OK, don't worry. May be you are just more intelligent than your peers and more honest with yourself. Somehow we learn to get on with ourselves with age, but for a deep thinker life is never easy.

sigh you got that right... Some say I think too much; However, who's to say they aren't thinking enough?

Contradictions within every day life so hard to bare with.

I dont know, if it well help you.
Don't expect much from others, just be yourself, whatever people approve you or disapprove. Dont look out look deeply in yourself.

In others words, just approve yourself.

Your being realistic, it is what there actually is, though you share time with others, your family and friends, you’re an individual and always have been.
Its normal mate so be content and happy with yourself. A Buddhist I believe our nature is moving energy, you’ve put out the need to share your life with partner, its on the way, whether or not she turns up in this life or not, doesn’t matter…she’ll turn up, when she does worry then mate!!

I felt this way often at 22 and sometimes I still feel this way. If it makes you feel any better I suspect you are far from alone.
I think a lot of it for me at 22 was a self-protective mechanism; sometimes after a few set-backs and bitter disappointments, the brain almost talks you out of doing a lot of stuff. I suspect my brain often used to rationalise: nothing risked = no harm, no foul.

The truth is that if you have friends who trust you enough to ask you for advice and you aren't robbing banks or sponging off the people closest to you, you're doing okay - more than okay.

A lot of us feel pressure that we 'should' be doing something: travelling, saving, getting married, having children, getting a job, getting a better job, buying property, buying a biggewr property, moving up, moving on, retiring...and on and on it goes. The 'shoulds' in life are truly exhausting - and endless, if you let them be.

I hate to be brutal but you live the life you choose as you go through it, or the life you allow to be chosen for you. If I were you I would devote today to a bit of brainstorming. Make a list of all things that you are not happy with in your life, then beside that list afterwards make a list of all the solutions that come into your head. At the end prioritise your solutions for each point. On the basis of what you have decided set out a corrective action program for your life for daily,weekly and monthly actions.
Follow through with what you have decided to do as ideas without action are futile.

Hey Bguy, Can I make a suggestion? Your intelligent, sweet and have a lot to offer. But it also sounds like you have time on your hands and you are searching for meaning in your life. This may sound crazy at first, but have you ever thought about doing volunteer work? There are many organizations that could really use your help. Besides which, it looks great on a resume, chicks dig humanitarian guys, And it would give you sense of purpose and occupy your time. hug teddybear
