43 and of little value
35 & Over Community / by supalark

...See more I'm a 43 year old man. I have no children. I am in a long term relationship where I raised her son from a previous relationship. I'm realizing now that by not having children, I am biologically insignificant. I have literally consumed resources on this planet and done nothing of value.  I guess I'm a cuck. Fit for being a worker bee and a cog in the system, not for reproduction. I wish I had known years ago, so I could have not bothered with any of it. I won't hurt myself, but I wish I hadn't been born.
Not sure why I care

...See more I try not to worry about what others think. I'm generally mediocre- middle aged, white man with a decent university job. I struggled through my degrees, and while I didn't do everything right and take advantage of every opportunity, I did the best I knew how to do. Now, the societal conversation has shifted and I hear that everything I've done is only on account of my privilege. When I succeed, at best, it's playing game on the easy setting, and nothing noteworthy. At worst, it's on the backs of slaves and on stolen land. If I fail, well, I failed on the easy setting, which is to REALLY suck. I have always prided myself in my hard work, working two full time jobs at times, full time while in school, and so on. No matter what I do, I'll always have "had it easy". Realizing I will always be viewed and evaluated based on my perceived privilege and not my accomplishments makes me not want to accomplish anything. I haven't done anything great, and at this point, I have no desire to. I'll do the bare minimum I can get away with until I can find a way to walk away from it all. Compared to every one else who has posted, my problems are nothing, but I guess that's the whole problem. I guess the whole thing is that, by my nature, I'm weaker, and unable to deal with stress, such that everything feels like hard work, when it's just the ramblings of a whiny, mediocre white man.
