33M, Single in Canada – Finding It Hard to Connect

2 months ago 33

Hi, I’m a 33-year-old guy living in Canada, and I find it challenging to connect with people who share a similar mindset. Here’s a bit about me and my perspective:

• Not religious: I don’t follow any religion and find it tough to get along with people who are deeply religious, especially if they impose their views on others. • Relationships/marriages aren’t my vibe: I don’t relate to people who prioritize these things or have kids—they’re usually too busy, and our lives don’t overlap much. • Child-free by choice: I’ve decided I never want kids. I don’t want to bring them into this messed-up world or take on the responsibilities that come with parenting. • Not interested in dating: For me, relationships often feel transactional, so I’ve chosen to stay away from that scene entirely.

I spend most of my time alone, which I’m mostly fine with. I enjoy walking around, listening to podcasts, going to bars or coffee shops, and just being in my own company. I do know I could benefit from developing more hobbies.

I have acquaintances, but finding good, long-term friends with a similar mindset who put equal efforts has been difficult.

Can anyone relate to this scenario?
