Exactly. Here in Turkey, it’s still expected to have a family as soon as you graduate from school. I find it unthealy the rheotoric that the only meaning of life is having a family. It upsets me to see people rush into these things and end up unhappy, or base their happiness on external expectations. Every way of living life is meaningful and beautiful.

some societies are more conservative and it takes some courage to forge your own path. as you say, doing it just because "i am supposed to" can backfire badly, i've seen it close and it leaves a lot of people damaged..
i agree with you and as you said, happiness must be found within. wish you a happy and fulfilling life!
Thank you! Wishing you a happy life too.
"Every way of living life is meaningful and beautiful."
What if someone's way of living life is to kidnap and eat other people? What if he "loves" doing so? After all, in your world view, the nebulous concept of "love" is all that matters.
Your quality of life will continue to degrade if you do not wake up to the fact that not all value systems are equal.
Morals are not subjective. You will continue having to adopt these retarded and degenerate world views to cope, like being a "queer muslim", but when they collapse, it will probably be too late for you
If someone’s life decisions affect no one but themselves, I genuinely struggle to understand why other people feel the need to involve themselves so deeply in something that has nothing to do with them.
That's a big "if"
None of our actions happen in a vacuum, especially if you understand the opportunity cost, the positive things you could have done instead.
But I'm speaking generally. I don't really care if you personally continue the lonely gay spinster path you're on, but you shouldn't try to convince others it's something positive
