Search Results: what are your goals in life

I have a huge problem with him and is that he has no dreams, no goals in life besides things related to his hobbies, and he has no interest in self-improvement.

He has a decent paying job but he hates it. There’s no goals of where he wants to be in 5-years. He just wants to keep this job because he can easily slack off. There is also no interest in working hard or hustling for money. He doesn’t even want to make more money. Not interested in becoming a manager or advance in his career. He just wants more free time for his hobby.

He doesn’t think not having any goals is a problem. I think he lacks motivation in life and mainly he is just lazy. One thing I really dislike was how he went to confide in a friend of this issue. His friend told him that this is absolutely normal to not wanting more or have goals in life. That was all it took for him to confirmed he shouldn’t have motivations. Your friend would not tell you that you are not normal. I see that his friend is actually very motivated to better himself! In my opinion, it is not healthy to not have any motivation in life. It really frustrates me because he just wanted to hear what he wanted to hear and that’s that. In fact, he came back to me explaining that it’s a cultural difference problem. And that it is only my family culture where we hustle and always looking to improve ourselves and expanding our income.

Personally, my partner has been around longer than my friends that I’ve met since moving back to my hometown. I believe that he should come first as this relationship is more likely to outlast any friendship (apart from my best friend that I’ve known since we were young children.) I will not hesitate to choose him over temporary friends that I’ve made in my twenties.

My friend thinks that this is insane and that I should choose my friends over him. I would get this if he was a newer love interest but we’ve been in each other’s lives for almost 5 years. I believe that friends will come and go forever, but a relationship with your one person could last a lifetime, at least that is usually the goal.

My question to you is, if it came down to choosing between the two, who would you pick?

A lot of people have goals towards these things in life. The thing they do not realize is that they might not be ready or prepared for it. I want to know what others think it means to be ready. So many times people just want these things and never have the tools to hold a healthy relationship and learn to walk away from a partner in a healthy manner. When others think of marriage and kids they do not understand what comes with the responsibilities as well as the changes that are inevitable. Are you ready? Do you know what to expect? Please share your opinion even if you do not think you are. Have a great day y'all.
