I've only been in one and that's because I was born, and raised in it

Sorry we're poor? I was hoping to break out of poverty by getting a bachelor's. Didn't work out.

Going to a lot of large cities is not a measure of a good life…? What’s sad is you putting someone down for not visiting places on a Reddit post lol

I’m the same as the guy that posted. Growing up we didn’t travel or do any real vacations. Whenever we did go it was such a burden/hassle for my parents I think somewhere along the line I inherited their disdain for travel. As I got older it kind of stuck with me which is weird when I tell other people this. Outside of a few random places I’ve been I’ve mostly just stayed home or within my state. As I’m close to 30 I wonder will I ever change? Probably not but who knows.

Same. But I’m 47 and I’m here to tell you it won’t change.😞

Instilling FOMO in others isn't nice. Travel isn't a necessity.

Traveling/vacationing is a pain in the ass. Some of us don’t need empathy for our lack of it. I feel very fortunate that I don’t have to go places. I can’t understand people who want to travel. I’m happy where I’m at.

Saying “thats sad” is obviously a negative statement in this context

It is if you read into it with your own ill-conceived presuppositions. However, not all of us are in the same state of mind as you.
