“Why should I be a good person?”

Context: I’d say I’m a pretty nice person, try to be empathetic to everybody even “mean” people, I keep a policy of putting myself in other peoples positions, etc.

Recently though, I’ve been thinking about giving up on this, feel like people who are assholes do so well from being assholes, and I don’t remember what was the reason which made me choose this empathetic path in the first place, it could be because I’m drunk right now.

Anyway I’m hoping someone can shed some light on the issue, and help me remember why it’s worth being a good and empathetic person, instead of being egotistical and self minded.

“I gave up on dating and started seeing escorts”

After five years of putting myself out there and getting nowhere, I’ve finally stopped trying to date. I went all in—I approached women respectfully, tried to be thoughtful and self-aware, and forced myself to treat each rejection as something impersonal, just part of the process. But after more than a hundred rejections, the “don’t take it personally” mantra just stopped working. The frustration started eating away at me, and eventually, the pain turned into self-hate.

Why Early Colonoscopies Save Lives

Let’s talk about colon cancer for a second. Yeah, I know—it’s not anyone’s idea of a fun topic. But if you’re old enough to be thinking about screening, or you care about someone who is, you owe it to yourself to really understand this: colon cancer is one of the most preventable cancers out there. And most people have no clue just how much power they have to stop it before it ever becomes a threat.

“I’m married, but fantasize about other women”

I’ve been married for almost six years to a woman I truly love and respect. We have a good relationship—solid friendship, intimacy, shared goals. But lately, I’ve found myself daydreaming or fantasizing about other women.

Sometimes it’s someone I know, sometimes just random strangers or old flings. The thoughts aren’t obsessive or constant, but when they show up, I feel guilty. Like I’m betraying her, even if it’s just in my head.

What’s It Like To Be A ‘Salaryman’ In Japan

When people picture Japan, they often imagine cherry blossoms, bullet trains, or the glowing lights of Tokyo. But for anyone who’s lived and worked here, nothing is more iconic—or more quietly powerful—than the army of men in dark suits flooding the city every morning: the salaryman. The term itself is borrowed from English, but in Japan, a “salaryman” (pronounced sa-ra-ri-man) means much more than just someone who draws a paycheck. He’s a full-time, white-collar company employee, often hired right out of university, who devotes himself—body and soul—to one company for life. More than a job, it’s an identity, a social class, and for many, a way of life so all-encompassing it can be hard to separate the man from the company colors he wears.

How to Be Rejection-Proof (Without Becoming Bitter or Creepy)

Rejection sucks. Whether it’s getting ghosted after a great date, not hearing back from a job, or feeling invisible in a crowd, it’s a gut punch. For some of us, rejection happens so often, it starts to feel like an identity: “I’m just not the type people choose.” And when you add today’s awkward dating world, where everyone seems to be hiding behind screens or terrified of crossing a line, it’s easy to start believing the problem is you.

Why Lending Money to Loved Ones Is Never A Good Idea

Look, I know you want to help. You see your brother, your cousin, your best friend from way back in a jam, and every instinct in your body screams, “I’ve got you.” But let’s get real: lending money to people you love is like lighting a match in a fireworks factory and hoping for the best. It sounds noble in the moment, but it almost always blows up—slowly, silently, and right at the heart of your relationship.
