At What Age Do You Stop Giving A Fuck?

Question

And learn to live for yourself and not the judgement or validation for others

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

Nobody gives a fuck about our fucks but us. Nobody. Because even when we give a fuck, nobody else does. So why even bother? The only way to stop giving fucks is to decide to stop giving fucks. And that’s exactly what you’re going to do today. That’s exactly what I’m going to do today. That’s exactly what we’re all going to do. Right now. This instant.

We’re going to free ourselves from the fucks. Feel the sweet relief of a fuck-free existence. You can almost taste it, can’t you? I sure as hell can.

Practice it with me:

Someone interpret something you said the wrong way? Too fucking bad.

Someone take issue with your parenting practices? Get fucking bent.

Someone dislike your taste in music, literature, movies, fashion, men, women, breakfast cereal? Straight outta fucks up in this motha.

Feels good, doesn’t it?

I say enough with obsessing about what others think. Enough with trading your own sense of self for the sake of the status quo. Enough with conforming to this cruel, unforgiving world and its expectation that everyone fit the same mold. Enough, I say.

Because as of this moment, as of right now, you and I both are finally choosing ourselves. You and I both are finally choosing to be content with who we are. Because you and I both are all out of fucks to give.

And you and I both most certainly don’t give a fuck what anyone else thinks of that.

It's not binary it happens over time.

Did you ever have a conversation with an old person and later realise that they thought you were a dick but they didn't tell you that because they had the experience to realise it was pointless to engage with you about it because you werent going to change your mind anyway?

But it's actually far more than that though, they don't even care that you are a dick because they don't have a horse in the race anymore, for them we are all just different flavours of dicks jostling around in the bag of life waiting to be eaten by some fat guy.

What they are thinking is more like 'I think I'll have a biscuit and scratch myself'.

You answered your own question. It is when you conclude you will not please everyone and who will emotionally blackmail you about it. It is yourself you must please, first and foremost.

No one gets to live for themselves. Their actions will always have an impact on others around them. They are one in 8 billion. This is a modern thing for under 40s. People are so selfish these days. Where they shouldn't be doing something, they will be called out and ultimately stopped.
