"What do you like to do with your free time?"

"Oh I just like to hang out with my wife/husband"

That's not a hobby dude...

Itd be like if I said "oh I just like to be by myself" if someone asked me what I do with my free time....

If I made a game would you buy it just to justify not having to play it?

how is hanging out with your SO any less of a hobby than picking up girls?

It's kinda like when you ask someone if they are okay and they say "I'm just tired" even though it's probably more than that going on.

If you ask about free time and they say "hang out with my wife" they really mean "I have basically no free time and work myself to death."

Because picking up girls is a game of strategy and direction

@No_U_L7

My dad wants me to move to Jamaica, his home country, because that strikes him as an "enterprising" move

I am not his responsibility, how do I tell him his advice cannot be taken in good faith?

To get into college? Bare minimum. My parents didnt let me go to college and were abusive so I did terrible in school. Got into a shitty school in the system (not community college) and luckily got to transfer after 1 year (extremely rare) to my #1 choice, a top tier school (same system). Something weird def happened behind the scenes to allow me to transfer but idk what
