Venting my parents think that once I have a job, I'll not feel so lonely anymore, ultimately having too much work on my mind to feel loneliness/need for gf

[The Wolf]

They always IMPLY that...


And my father said... "so many lonely people get pets, to feel less lonely" (and implying with a second sentence that it replaces a gf), thoughts?


At least my mother does a lot for me.


I've had pets ever since I was about 10. They brought me joy of course. But... first of all, I don't think any cat or dog can replace my first cat and dog. Secondly, a pet can help in some way but needless to say aren't a replacement for a loving gf.


My family and I all know I can't get a gf but my problem is more that they expect me to just be a good little worker @40 hours per week (in the very near future)


and maybe get a cat (which can never replace my first cat anyway, nor a gf), and be content with all this. They expect me to cope.


And it's very clear that both my parents think that once I have a job, I'll not feel so lonely anymore, ultimately having too much work on my mind to feel the loneliness/need for a gf....


Their arrogance, especially my dad's, is fucking audacious.

Parents are some of the biggest cowards. They don't even have the courage to apologize to their kids for causing so much suffering to them by bringing them into this world.

I've never been able to hold a job for longer then a few months. I think the most I ever lasted was 6 or 7. Eventually the work becomes mind numbingly boring and I just say fuck it and quit.

I don't think I'll ever have a career. I'll just go from shitty job to shitty job until I die.

They cry about 'ingratitude' of their kids while not realizing the whole world treats their son like that. Fucking petty fucks.

I worked for 4 years stacking shelves. It made me feel more lonely and depressed than ever. Surrounded by people, but no real socialising opportunities. They lived their lives around me while I worked stacking the shelf. Maybe say some words to a guy out the back. Spoke once to a checkout girl when we were both waiting for the store to open. That was the highlight of my 4 years.

Your parents are retarded

I never had such an interaction but what you described is still brutal.

I'll probably work some boring office job. And it seems that this will just be "ok" as I'll be too busy with the job and freaking household work (as my father didn't directly say but heavily implied). Even if I say that's all not true, they believe what they want to believe.

 

[Wolnir]

It depends how NT you are, if you're not NT, you won't fit in and will feel even more alone. My job makes me feel even more lonely.

Brutal.

But can having a full-time job / almost full-time job actually make you ok without a gf because you're too busy with work and household stuff? That's what my parents think but don't directly say.

 

[autisticmanchild]

You will feel more lonely as co workers interact with everyone but you.

Depends on your job, I work in a factory doing repetitive work and I have all the time in the world to think.

I see, interesting.

Makes sense, it will likely be the same for me. But still I don't think having a job really "helps" to be ok without a gf, as nobody is working 24/7

I'm in my late 20s, ugly, boring, never "went out", virtually no social experiences.... I guess it's over anyway.

Bringing someone into this world who you can abuse and make a scapegoat is probably the most cowardly act ever.
At least criminals who attack other people are risking a jail time and maybe death. While there are zero risks for abusing weak subhumancels.
Only a small minority of them ever think about retaliating against abuse.
Do these 'parents' ever saw how weaklings and defectives were abused at school?

This, and they refuse to acknowledge that they are the root of a significant amount of our problems.
