Looking for advice.

If I were you, this is what I would do: set yourelf up with around 2 weeks of vacation and a couple thousand bucks to spend, and start driving with no particular plan. Stop whenever you find something really interesting, but make it your goal to at least travel through a few states/provinces. No social media, no internet, just you and the road and the fresha air. Maybe stop at a few pubs and people watch. Get lost once or twice. Try to think about why you might be so unfilfilled and what else you can do about it. Just generally clear your head and take a long break.

Alternatively, you could always try therapy lol

Just remember that a modern relationship won't fulfill you, and won't fill in that gap that you feel is missing in your life. It may distract you from your pain for a bit, but that pain will always come back, and it will come back stronger unless you deal with it first. What really helped me in the past was letting it all go, and going off grid for a few months. It made me struggle and face my reality head on. Gave me a lot of time to think about what was really important. Watching a baseball game, and eating spaghetti now has a whole new meaning to me that I don't take for granted.

You mentioned the motorcycle hobby. Have you gone on a trip with one yet? I've ridden about 250k miles on them and nothing has brought me as much contentedness as motorbike road tripping...

Why don't you volunteer to help those less fortunate than you. I think your intuition that traveling won't cure any malady is 100% correct.

You can even keep it mgtow and do the big Brothers program. I help the elderly and infirm.

You're searching fulfilment outside yourself. That won't work (for long). The "trick" is to bring fulfilment from within to the outside. That way it doesn't matter if you hike mount Everest, drove your motor cycle or play a video game. Much people suffer because they changed the direction of happiness and fulfilment.

Travel doesn’t have to be for sport/show. Not sure what your hobbies are but you could look into things like river rafting trips, a guided camping experience, learning to hang glide, etc etc. there’s both the where you’re interested in going (beach, mountains) & the what you’d be interested in learning about/doing/stretching yourself

Unplug from the internet for a while and plan an adventure trip somewhere.

My whole life I have dealt with what I call blue periods. It's probably a mild sort of depression but the bouts come and go but less frequently any more. The things that help me are setting goals. Set physical fitness goals, so you are just not going through the motions. Set, financial goals so you see yourself getting more prosperous. Try to fix anything in your house and vehicles by watching you tube videos and gain new knowledge and skills. If you are riding your bike, try to work on your skills and push yourself to brave a track day. Just keep learning and living. When it comes to vacations, I like three-day weekends. You don't want to be roped into something that may suck for a week. I always had fun going to Vegas and just walking through all the casinos and taking in some shows. With your MGTOW knowledge, it's fun to sit at a bar and watch the high end prostitutes work their charms too. You don't need a lot of friends but try and cultivate at least one good reliable one. As always, if you want friends you got to engage and be a friend. So many people want friends, but they are so self absorbed in their own issues that nobody will commit to hanging out with them. If you want to mentor kids, find a relative's kid or a close neighbor kid and do some fun activities with them. Success in mentoring is real important that you like each other. If you have a little familiarity with the kid at first it helps because some mentored children come from shitty single mothers that will make you feel worse being around them. Finally, no matter what any man can feel lonely without any female interaction. If you are physically fit and doing good financially, eventually women will find you. You already know the dangers of women, but I go out for drinks and listen to live music all the time. I have lots of nice interactions with women that fulfill my quota of female time. I don't take them home any more because it's not worth the hassle, but there is no shame of thinking of them and whacking the hell out of it. lol Just my two cents.

Do something hard and challenging. Traveling and backpacking some where is a good way to spend time thinking about life, which is great way to clear your mind. I think doing something where you suffer a little bit is very rewarding and can change your perspective for a little bit. Getting disengaged with life happens all of the time, sometimes this is inevitable. Maybe try something new: write in a journal, read a new book, pick up a new hobby, etc. Maybe ur stuck in a routine and you just need to mix it up a bit. Just some ideas.
