The question is simple, but I doubt everybody has an answer for it. Maybe because they aren't 100% honest with themselves or because they don't know. However, if you ask yourself "what are you taking that education for?", "why are you lifting?" etc. You can then say "because I want to look good and raise my SMV". Then ask yourself "why do I wanna look good?"..."because the girls love it," you might say. And then you can take it further until you find out that you might want to compensate for a need, like a lack of validation for example. Or simply because you want pussy and pussy feels good.

It was what Freud stated that everything men do in life is for the sake of getting laid. Now I believe it to be true, since it must be hardwired into our brains to do anything to let our genes pass on, however, why are there so many successful gays, who can get laid whenever they want to?

I've certainly been lifting a lot back in the days and back then I thought being muscular would solve all my problems, but no. Even though it came with its benefits, I was as miserable as I always was and still am. Now I'm taking a good education in computer science and I have no problem with it, I simply cannot see the point of it all. I feel fine with only getting laid once in a while. I am pretty much forgotten by all of the peers that I used to know and I only have my family left. Now I know that getting an education would be good for me career wise and would provide me with a stable income, I cannot see why I shouldn't just live in my mother's basement and work as a factory worker for the rest of my life.

I've realized that everything I've ever done was for getting validation because I've been a reject for the most of my life and for proving to others that I'm not a loser. And because I have some trauma from my childhood where I've been excluded by my peers and fear exclusion still to this day.

Now my question goes to you: "what are you doing what you are doing for?" It could be anything worthy, like building muscle, a business, a career etc. And I would like to hear you strip it down to the very core like I did in the beginning of the post to see what is the driving force for you doing this.
