Can A Matured Person Who Doesn't Indulge In Social Vices Be Termed Abnormal? by paulavon: 2:15pm On Sep 30, 2021
I was having a conversation with a lady and two guys a couple of days ago, and in the course of the conversation I told them I rarely drink alcohol (just a bottle of Heineken in a month or two), I don't smoke, I don't womanize and I don't crave for money.
I was told that I wasn't normal, that an average man must indulge in one or two of those vices.

I will people to share their opinions on this.

I don't smoke, drink, womanise, too dey crave for money, watch football, club ...and when sb tells me I ain't normal, I am glad. It doesn't mean I don't have fun, I do in my own special way with fam! We go out too, of course!

Why am I glad? That's what I always want to hear. Because when I am becoming “normal” then there is a problem. But when I am not “normal,” it makes me know I am still very very normal... I even celebrate the news.

What I do when I hear such: I remove squares out of my circles.

Case solved.

Be proud of your "abnormality" if that brings you peace and happiness. As long as what brings you joy, peace and happiness is not illegal.

Maybe he meant those people desperate for it that they indulge in illicit acts and Yahoo to get money because these are vices maybe that is what he was referring to.

That is a beer parlour gist,you are very normal many of the people that say this are close minded and use this as an excuse or reason for them to do what they do.

I have seen men who don't fall in any of those categories and they are not abnormal if that is an abnormality to them it is time we start normalising it.

That's the Crazy, Decaying, Abominable and Sinking World we Live in today.

A World where Good is Called Evil and Evil is Called Good.
That's the Spirit of the Endtimes that has Engulfed the World Inhabitants.

The Fact that Majority or Everyone decides to do evil does not make Evil right.

Wherever you are, Stand out From the Crowd.
Stand For Righteousness!
Stand For Holiness!
Stand For JESUS Christ!
JESUS is Coming! And HE will take those who stand boldly for HIM.

What I meant was that, I am not really moved or influenced by money, I am contented with the little I have. It is not a do or die matter for me.
Some people will tell you that " money matter I no dey use am play oh"

I was even attacked the most by the lady.
She said I should go and check myself, that something was wrong with me.

I am not a righteous person, I have friends who drink, smoke and womanise but I just don't get involved.

I have been reflecting on her comments and I felt the need to seek for other opinions to know if I am normal.

My brother, I am a football and music lover.
I am a die-hard Chelsea fan, I have been supporting them since 2003.

The fact is that I live my life in such a way I am not subdued by anything.

You are normal and believe me you will later become happy for threading on the right part by not doing all those worthless things.

NOTE:never change the good things you are doing in the future for any reason.Those girls who mock you today will later regret their actions tomorrow and will end up respecting your idea.
Ciao!

Exactly! Once you understand yourself. I don't even like unnecessary friendships or acquaintances. I choose the people I want. People don't choose me.

You can avoid such friends, you don't even need to hear what they have to say. The said lady has associated with drunks, womanizers and greedy guys all her life, such that decency seems abnormal to her. She doesn't know that there are plenty women who pray to have men like you.

Don’t let it bother you.
Your personalities (yours and hers) simply don’t match and that’s it.
You don’t have to roll with people that do not make you feel good (you’ll recognize the vibe).
Just minimize relating with them, or you cut them off for the sake of your happiness.
Identify the people your vibe matches with theirs and roll with them. Be more intentional with your happiness.

It seems in her circle she hasn't seen better or anyone deviate from their norm hence her statement.
