Why do people had unnecessary responsibilities in life?

Question

My definition of "unnecessary responsibilities" is anything in life that is work BUT you don't need it to survive nor advance your life.

Answer 1

Hmmm...I know what your saying and I wish you could of gave me an example of one. I tried to think of one in my own life and I really can't think of any. If I was married or in a relationship I might have some. Well, mowing the grass, painting, waxing/washing the vehicles, dusting, vacuuming, cleaning the windows, haircuts, taking a bath...etc is all unnecessary to survive. Most of these do have to do with hygiene except for washing the car, mowing the yard and haircuts and I can let those go, and some of these things we have to do to get a job, like taking a bath or having our hair at least neat looking. When it comes down to it, most of the unnecessary responsibilities that I do have to do with pleasing society/people, but when it comes down to surviving (living off the land) I don't nedd to do any of those things.
