If you feel like life is boring, then do you live and move to somewhere else or do you stay?

Question

I feel like life is boring, i felt this way in the 9th in high school and now i feel the same way in college. I feel like i need to do something new, or make a big change...what should i do to fix this bordom? move, buy something, or etc...

Answer 1

Well, my friend, what I would do is to try something new, something that I had never tried, in some point in my life when I felt that way I change the things that I liked to do, go to the extreme if you like. I even changed the place and the people I used to hang around. Try to do somenthing that you used to hate before.

Answer 2

I have made big changes, moved and started over where no one knew me a couple of times. But a funny thing always happens--within a year or two, my new life looks a lot like my old one with similar habits and friends.

Most of the time, the problem isn't the place, it's you. Figure out what you want to do first, then decide if it requires a change of scenery.

Answer 3

The change doesn't have to be a big one. Just changing your routine a bit can excite your life a little. Even changing your look could work too. Getting a hair cut, treating yourself to a spa day, something like that. Believe me, you don't have to move somewhere else to get rid of your boredom.

Answer 4

I could be wrong, but it sounds like a search for the main vein. I don't know, boredom a valid reason to quit college...SURVEY SAYS! I mean no offense. Perhaps the answer is to be still and very quiet, look inward for the things that matter to you, and then move toward those.

Answer 5

If your life is boring it's not your environment it's YOU! you are boring, maybe unimaginative and uncreative. How can anybody be bored in the world today???!!!! there are so many options maybe you're just lazy. A geographical cure won't work because you always take you with you. Not being mean just an obsevation.

Answer 6

I believe that everyone at one time or another experiences these same feelings that you are currently having. Often times people end up leaving their home towns after they have finished their schooling but often end up returning to where they feel safe and find that these things that they are currently finding boring are actually fun. Best of luck and good luck with this years schooling.

Answer 7

The ability to tolerate boredom is a skill that will benefit your through your entire life. There will always be boring moments, or boring periods. Boredom comes out of impatience. When you decide not to be impatient, the boredom will decrease exponentially. People who make decisions out of boredom and impatience often regret their choices later on.

Answer 8

When things get boring, you absolutely have to try something new. Meet new people, study something you don't know, anything to try to shake things up a bit. Stretch yourself, challenge yourself.

I've heard that when one is bored, its usually because one is boring!

Answer 9

You could try a big change or move. But examine yourself and try to find out why you are bored.
