I'm sick of life. Does anyone else feel like this?

Question

I recently turned 15.

My life is really boring. My parents are in their 70's , so they have nothing interesting to do or say. I live in the country - in the middle of nowhere basically. I'm completely asexual so I'm not attracted to men or women so I don't plan to be anyone's wife - EVER!

So my life is really boring! Painfully boring. I'm home-schooled so I've barely left the HUGE amount of land surrounding our cottage-like house.

It seems like I have nothing to look forward to in life.

I don't have a relationship to look forward to.

My parent's will be gone soon ... I'm coming to terms with that though.

I feel like my childhood has been wasted.

I can safely say I have no friends

and I can also safely say that there will not be a person that i'll want to spend the rest of my life with.

SO LIFE at the moment seems very pointless and very very very very boring, repetitive and tedious.

P.S. when I say life is pointless, I'm not saying that I'm in anyway suicidal - I'm saying that my life is SO boring that if it goes on any longer like this that MAY turn out to be the only option for me - but i REALLY DONT SEE THAT HAPPENING dont worry

Answer 1

First let me tell you how well written your question is and how good your spelling is. Obviously you have been taught well at home. We reach these points in our lives at different stages and for different reasons. I feel the same way since I retired from my job and my social life has come to a standstill. It is hard to make new friends at any age. You have a computer so you have access to the outside world. Join on line groups; find people with interests the same as yours. I frequent the libraries in my area because they have all sorts of discussion groups, movies, writing groups. Look for after school groups that you might be able to join.

Good luck...there is a whole world out there waiting for you.

Hi Jenn,

Feeling this way is very common, especially iat the age of 15 and in the circumstances that you are living in.  Have you had a complete physical by your doctor?  Bloodwork is needed to check for anything being out of whack which may contribute to this hopeless feeling.

Being involved in volunteer work is a great way to help relieve some of what you are feeling.  I was experiencing some of the same feelings. So today I forced myself to go to my mother in laws church to help with clean up day.  I really do feel a lot better.

I see you have a computer.  The computer is a great way to explore your interests and get contected to those with the same interests.What type of things are you interested in?

Are you able to attend school with other teens?  Plan on going to college and plan to live there.  This will open a new world for you.

Everyday remember to think of five things that you are greatful for,  Take the time to appreciate the simple beauty of the day.

Hi Jenn,

I completely agree with Shari R's answer. Everything she said was first-rate and was along the lines of what I would have said. You might want to take her advice. I'm sure you will feel more positive about yourself if you do.

You should give Shari R a "Best Answer" for her reply.

Answer 4

wake up to your self your only 15 you have your whole life ahead of your self

Answer 5

Your parents are in there 70's?

Well that's a bit old.

You're only 15, you will get married one day. You are probs going through a stage where you don't feel attraction.

Go out in your little country town and find some people to hang out with. Don't waste your life away doing something you don't wanna do.

You will get there one day, this is just one life lesson.

Answer 6

Wow, your parents are in their 70's ? I'm 45 and my mother is only 61. Your problem is that you have no excitement in your life! The

only reason you feel asexual is because you haven't been around boys OR girls to wake your body up! You need a change of scenery, girl, and quick!  I bet when you finally get out into the world you'll be a regular wild child because of how oppressed you are right now. Take a bus to the city or something and cut loose!

Answer 7

First off, get the h**l out of home school! Go to public school. You may not be asexual, maybe just a lack of any kind of stimuation has stopped hormones from doing anything. You need to leave that place in any way possible. Steal your parents car and make a break for it. Jail may not be fun, but its different. Maybe youll meet someone cool in jail. Is there any other family you can go live with?
