This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

after many years of depression, I have just given up on dating, it's not fun, it's not rewarding (for me) and my hobbies keep me happy and fulfilled enough. If something wants to happen, I'm ready to welcome it, if not, who cares

I'm sorry to hear you've had difficulty finding someone. If your hobbies keep you happy and fulfilled, just make sure those hobbies don't keep you home alone. Go to gatherings of other hobby enthusiasts, good chance that there you'll find someone that is your perfect fit

If those hobbies keep them happy does it really matter?

Human connection is extremely important. You could make due without it (probably not completely though) but theres an implication it would be better if one could be successfully social.

let's say it's more of keeping me distracted rather then happy

ITT: People who apparently never had an intrusive thought getting awfully judgy about someone's immediate feelings.

Decency is to not act on negative emotions and impulses, not never having them.
