lose $10k in Vegas in a week gambling + strip clubs: i never bring what i cant afford to lose. The $10k as entertainment value in my eyes.

i get a ticket for going 15mph over the speed limit: i wasnt paying attention to my speed, and deserved the ticket. pay it, and move on. even as i got pulled over i wasnt upset. i actually laughed a little.

girl shoots me down for a date: move on to next girl

some idiot i've never met b4 bumps into me as i'm walking down the street, and tells me to watch where i'm going: i just shake my head and walk away

etc...


Everything i own i can afford to replace, and/or is insured.

Life is too short to dwell on the negative.

That's not to say NOTHING bothers me. Things that would definitely bother me is if people i care about get hurt, or hurt me emotionally (ie: betraying my trust).


so basically i dont care what happens to my material things or things that happen to me if i deserve it (ie: ticket).

What do you think about this "Don't care" attitude? And anyone else have the same outlook in life?

"lose $10k in Vegas in a week gambling + strip clubs: i never bring what i cant afford to lose. The $10k as entertainment value in my eyes."

^ that would make me sick. all the other things i would chalk up to "shit happens", but blowing 10 grand like that wouldn't be something i'd allow to happen.

Your response is irrelevant, and judgmental. He said he brought what he was okay with losing.

did you see who the poster was?
the irony.... it stings. :laugh:
 
well in the recent weeks i have been in a car accident, got into a fight, broke my wrist playing basketball, broke up with the girl i was dataing, and my dog died. none of that has really bothered me and so I'm fairly certain that I don't have a soul.
 
I'm pretty much the same way. I'm apathetic to almost everything. It's also impossible to offend me, ever.
 
You just have the cash to not care. Take away your ability to blow $10000+ in Vegas for a week and you'll start caring more.
 
i would agree with you on everything not making me upset, EXCEPT for losing 10 g's.

even if i could afford to lose that much, i'd still be punching my head for a few days after that. I'd probably throw up a couple times too.

hell, i get pissed at myself when i lose 100.00
 
yup.

The best thing is finding out that you're not alone. 🙂

I'm currently at the stage where I know that I don't deserve to be happy or that life won't let me be happy; so I do everything I physically can to try to make other people happy.
