We all know the type. The person who thinks all their problems will just vanish just by simply travelling to some foreign exotic place where they will become great people and fuck a ton of hot women. That's just not true whatever defects your personality has are not the creation of other people they are wholly your own creation. Thus your problems will follow you no mather how far you try escape from them.

I personally feel bad for some of the anime weaboos I know just because they have misconceptions about Japan and think it's a magical cure for their miserable lives, which it obviously isn't.

A friend I had a while ago came here (Australia) from Switzerland, thinking everything would be sweet and all her problems would go away. Then she got homesick, missed her language and was miserable. Dropped out of uni, turned dyke and ran off somewhere, never to be heard of again.

I guess when traveling countries you have to really consider what you are leaving and what you will miss.

OP here: I kind of learned this the hard way. I was severely depressed and made some kind of a silly journey "to find myself" in asia and southern-america, I just ended up spending a fuckload of money and really gaining nothing.

Later I met an awesome woman whom I have been together with for years now and started to realize that happiness must first be found within yourself, after that you can pursue collecting experiences from around to world in pursuit of growing as a person.

The 20 something douches who make one trip to india and claim to have acchieved spiritual enlightment and other bullshit are full of crap. It's the usual smoking pot and looking around trying to get into some mysterious vide which doesn't exist outside their imaginations. Shameless hedonism without any self-improvement whatsoever.

Whilst I agree with you, it seems weird that you're focusing so much on what other people are doing with their lives.

Everyone knows the majority of people are downright idiots, just shake them off and move on with your life.

There is no point dwelling on the crap other people are doing.

True, but as said I feel a bit sorry for some of my overtly optimistic weaboo friends I care about them too, but I know they must learn trough making their own mistakes.

For some bizarre reason the faggots who come from their first trips from anywhere even remotely exotic make me rage over how much they exaggarate their experiences.

going to thailand and nepal, to volunteer, i found that living a more basic life reduced my OCD quite substantially. however on return it is still the same....

i agree a lot with op, but at the same time, meeting people of different cultures and different worldviews can help to alter your perspective and help you grow as a person. Any white person travelling in asia will suddenly know what it's like to be a minority for example...

Yeah a great picture about being a minority, being woshipped and getting the best service and nicest treatment everywhere you go.

or getting stared at, shouted at by kids, given worse prices, or just being known as falang or gajin....

I'm not a weaboo and I acknowledge that my problems will follow me where ever I go, but I'll do anything I can to bang Japanese chicks.

It's just that, exotic. It's something they've never seen before, and it's beautiful to them. Leave them be.

Truth, OP. I, however, have no sympathy for them.
