It's one thing to ponder this sort of relationship now, when I am able to pull women (don't let my wife read this hah) and still functional and attractive. It's like cocaine, I'm not doing it now, but when I'm 80, I might be snorting the hell out of it - consider this feeling applicable to cheap companionship, if I'm still kicking at that age and my wife has passed, I will be buried cheap perfume and soulless holes.

Sounds like mild depression... Don't be too hard on yourself but don't slip into malaise either - set a goal that is outside of your normal routine, maybe running for 10 minutes without a break, maybe stretching and getting to new level of flexibility, maybe a daily 10 minute meditation routine. Best of luck shaking it off!

isn’t magically make that go away

I said nothing about making it go away, I talked about dealing with noise as a small sacrifice to help a struggling immigrant family. NIMBY as all hell, sorry.

Loud noises are an actual physical stressor

As someone who lived in the belly of the beast in NYC for a few years, this made me chuckle, thank you.

so much of American food has zero flavour, zero spices

Hey we're not all in the midwest... hahah - but no. America being a true melting pot means that we have access to every cuisine the world has to offer. The best part of that is the lack of conquest - we didn't go steal the worlds' best food, for a long time (not now unfortunatley) we opened our arms to people fleeing your country, and let them come here and succeed, opening restaraunts, food carts, shops, etc - and my tastebuds are eternally grateful!

From this:

They’re from Ukraine as immigrants from a war, they’re trying their best. They’ve got five adults living in that house in an infant baby and they’re trying their best to make things happen here in the US. I get it...

To this:

I get it, but I can’t abide by having motor vehicle noise in my living and bedroom.

In one sencetence. I'm not trying to be rude but this is the most NIMBY shit I have ever seen. This mentality is partially why we have a homelessness crisis in this country, the whole "I get it," but "I'm not sacrificing one iota to make it better."
