    It doesn’t feel like it, but you can have that life you think is unattainable. You can find a wife, you can get a home, you can have a child, and there’s a good chance you’ll like it. You have to pick your hard, maybe you don’t get to live in the capitol city and go to the club every night, but try to be consistently virtuous and you can succeed even in a world that feels stacked against you. Remember that you only exist because thousands of generations of your ancestors made it through harder times than this.

      Going out clubbing is a distraction from the emptiness inside. Brew your own beer and wine and share it at events you host. Board game night, dinner parties, film viewings, craft nights etc. Much more fulfilling and cheaper. I can make 30 bottles of wine for the price of 4 drinks at a club.
