I am 25 years old and still live with my parents. We all get along very well together and we don't have a huge family (I'm an only child with not that many relatives). I have very few friends and I am not in a relationship. Also, it's very difficult to move out these days with the housing situation....

Ireland has a long history of heavy drinking! Nothing new or modern about that really. I think you'd find a number of like minded people in societies that preserve the past, such as historical or cultural clubs, hiking groups and environmental groups. Not all of them would involve drinking in their...

That is what I did and I have been much happier since. I quite detest towns and cities and just being in them results in increased frustration and anxiety. If you can find a way to support yourself in a rural environment, then by all means, go for it. I have seen pictures of rural Ireland and it lo...

I'm not much for the modern world either. Especially when I was younger. At my age now, I realize I am largely able to continue a reasonably active life due to modern medicine, a double edged sword. Ireland is such a small island. I think about how huge the US is and how many different places we ca...

The "modern" world sucks, yes. If you were in Ireland in the 19th century, you would have picked this "modern" world over that world. Even the first half of the 20th century. Have you read "Angela's Ashes?" I grew up in a time when a kid was "seen and not heard.&q...

Thank you very much for all of your replies, it is comforting to know that there are others who feel like they do not fit into this strange world.

I have been feeling this way for the last 5 years or so. I just cannot bring myself to like the modern world. I live in a country that has had its young people nearly destroyed by alcoholism. I am a non-drinker in a country where so many social events revolve around alcohol. Drugs are also something...

I used to feel like this. I eventually stopped thinking this way after realising that it's interesting to be different. I often compared myself to people who seemed to achieve a lot but were not particularly nice individuals. Having a relationship, a car or a decent job does not necessarily mean you...
