Managing not to play vidya gaems for 4 days in a row combined with starting not to eat after 19 :00 . The urge to play vidya slowly fades away. However, desire for tasty stuff is strooong.

I am really sad though...

I really cannot afford to continue my prescriptions and going back to school might not be on the table.

Good luck, neonivaek.

Religious islamic mum finding muh Richard Dawkins book 

Tried alternative way of socializing. Went into some philosophical club in local library. The theme of discussion was the changes in educational system.
Before everything started, tried talking with some guy about, how stuff usually goes here, what are the usual topics, etc?
This dude suddenly changed discussion to : do you feel joy rising in you about war in Syria and our motherland showing off military might and reshaping the monopolar world into bipolar one? And that it would be pretty nice for our jets to shoot down some nato planes, preferably french. ( and it turns out this warloving guy is professionally teaching people history and has phd in philosophy, and he did spend 30 years in military )
Then the event started :
- this same dude opens the discussion with how everything is awful and then moves to telling, that marxism and christianity are the same thing, as teachings of Marx are less about politics and more about spiritual growth, and god exists, and quantum mechanics are just the proof of that. And the factory workers were getting 5 times more then army  officers in imperial russia and communists ruined everything.
The room blows up with thunderous applauding.
- then is the turn of history teacher, he starts with neolitic revolution changing the human life( well, that is pretty right), tells about pyramid of Maslow as wrong concept in context of russian culture, as russian civilization is actually all about spirit and not that much about matter, then  goes blaming western consumeristic society for enforcing its consumeristic values on our nonconsumeristic 500% spiritual culture - applauding
- third speaker is some female student who instead of speech reads some patriotic poetry about proudly carrying the flag of motherland now matter what. However, everyone is applauding, despite the fact, that she just cheated them by reading one verse instead of giving the speech about changes in education.
- stuff goes on in same manner, during opening discussion said philosophy doctor and history professor uses his phd and job status as proof of him being right.

Really wtf?

All my friends are getting in relationships and I'm going to die alone and unencumbered.

Fixed

Just remember this: We are all born alone, we all die alone, we all live alone. No-one will ever taste what another person tastes or see exactly what another person sees as another person sees it. No-one we will ever feel what another person feels or think what they think how they thought it. Everyone is an island surrounded by a barren sea. We are all alone, and all we see and seem is but a shadow on the wall of our minds. So it is, so it always will be.

Merry Christmas.

And that philosophical wank aside, generally it is nicer to have company.
Married people tend to live longer and happier for a reason, after all.

But don't stress it. You've got plenty of time.

Ehm, you are taking into account only awesome wife scenario. Dont forget about the ones, which are full of desire to yell and dominate over everything.

Now, now, refrain from assuming; they could also be the biggest fish. not be a fish.

So it isKraken? Thats pretty cool thing to be friends with as fish. Watching him sink ships, having some good laughs together with Moby Dick, spooking sailors, releasing lots of ink to make silly surface guys scratch their heads and think, that it is giant oil leak
