Normally I never thought too hard about my life. But suddenly my life feels very boring whenever I compare it to my boyfriend's life.
He's been through a lot. He also has a bunch of friends, who he smokes with and has a ton of fun with. Every day he can always have some exciting story to share no matter what it is about.
Then I think about myself, and I have nothing to compare to him. I probably don't understand half of what it feels like to go through all the stuff he's been through, and that may be the problem! Suddenly my life feels very boring, bland, and lack of excitment/friends. As if I have nothing to look back on.

Is this normal I feel this way?

    Oh I'm sure your life isn't that boring, bland and uninteresting :-) And sure, things always seem dull if you compare it to something so vibrant. Take my life for instance: I do Kung Fu, Rock Climbing and Parkour which to some may seem so exciting and fulfilling, but if I compare that to say the lead singer of a famous rock band, suddenly all my achievements seem insignificant. So don't be so hard on yourself and just have fun :-)

    You should rob a bank then take your boyfriend hostage in a 7 hour police standoff. That should teach him to be exciting and makes for great coffee talk.

    Maybe you should find a different guy in that same situation because if you do then you can both start from the same starting point and go through the same life being eachothers own fun.

    Some people are really good storytellers.

    It's normal. People like your boyfriend have a lot of stories to tell.

    I'm not sure you'd want to emulate him though as a lot of life stories are interesting in retrospect but he probably wishes he had never gone through his "adventures".

    A boring life is a safe life ;)

    It is normal, but you should get out more and chill then you would have your own fun and stories. Guy friends would be best I think they would be more fun. Girls are just as good though.
