Is it normal to feel okay about being a "loser"?

Growing up, I was always told and thus thought that I needed to go to school so I could get a high-paying job in order to be successful. After receiving said education though, and through much deliberation I realize that money alone does not bring about happiness.

I would love to raise a family some day and be able to support them, but if I never did, I think I would be fine with it. I'm sure others would look down on me but the thought doesn't bother me too much, yet.

I am in college but still like hanging out with my friends and don't mind working part time, like I did in high school.

Is It Normal?

  • Don't ever feel like you're a loser, because your not.
    You sound like an individual who is content with things simplistic, and that is an admirable trait through my eyes :)

  • You don't even sound like a loser. What makes someone a loser is not lack of material wealth, but lack of social wealth.

    • Exactly lol this doesn't seem to be some kinda " oh woe is me, my life!" kinda thing....

      Also I hate judgmental people...one persons idea of being happy isn't anothers
      It kinda reminds me of...me lol it's not about low self esteem..blah blah yada yada...no. Lol I just prefer to take it easy, I still do what needs to be done..I guess it's partial laziness too but w.e lol
      Some need validation through material and such, to be happy...I just need piece of mind :p
      Having items is nice too though xD

  • Don't ever let yourself feel like a loser. You're young and have your whole life ahead of you. Do what ever makes you happy and don't take bullshit from anyone!
