For all of your dreams to come true- and to still be unhappy?

2 1/2 years ago I wanted college more than anything, I was in a terrible and abusive relationship, and have a crush on a boy who was beyond popular- he was brilliant and fascinating.

Fast forward- Im in college with all A's- I am out of that terrible relationship and MARRIED that boy I had a crush on (its an amazing marriage), I have the dog I've always wanted, I am living in a really nice house with the loving supportive parents I always wanted, I dont have to work right now...

And yet, I am sitting here so zapped of energy and unhappy, that I cant get ANYTHING done right now. How am I STILL unhappy?!

    This is a case of "The grass is always greener on the other side". No matter how much you achieve, you will always think something is missing, and other people have it better.

    Start volunteering. You already have enough to make your life easy, now it's time to give a little of yourself back.

    @ skimscambone:

    Wow. Haha. You definitely sound the the kind of person who would have all around negative experiences with most people you interact with. Its no wonder you cant find a woman who's "worthy" of your uh, genius...wait no that's not right... I meant ignorance, hatred, arbitrary gender claims, and apparent stupidity.

    Thanks for the laugh

    Nothing is ever going to make you happy all the time! What you are feeling is normal. Do something fun and interesting. Every day for a month name one blessing you have in your life and make sure it is different from any other one you have already said. I did this and it helped me alot! Do something out of the ordinary every day until it becomes a rutine. Often we just need sometype of change and are just bored with the rutine we have... so switch things up! Make life fun and interesting again! :) Good luck, count your blessings, switch things up, and have fun!

    ps. And do something for you, or something that you enjoy and haven't done it in a while.

    Your so caught up in all the materialistic side of life... As many possesions as you get, it won't make you happy. There is a purpose to life, search... You will know when you find it. You will know the deepest happiness and peace, far greater than your wordly possesions can offer...

    Perhaps you are bored? Try picking up a hobby. My life is brilliant but without a major interest I feel the same as you.

  • Get a hobbie, or perhaps consider children. Good luck with life. :)

    Maybe raising a child will make you feel happier.
