So I took some time away from the world. No blogging. No working. No phone. Just existing. It was truly peaceful and then I come back to naught but slanderous remarks about my lifestyle from friend's families. Remarks about my lifestyle. So dear readers prepare for a whistle stop tour through the way I choose to live.
First, let me start by saying that I am not a great man. Far from it. I simply live as every male would like to. But now for the tour.
I have no real family, as a result I have the amazing ability to do what I want when I want and not be questioned about it. I can go out and spend a ridiculous amount of money on caviar and champagne and it's fine. I can be as immoral as I want and the only person I have to judge me is myself. Due to these circumstances, I live, what was referred to as, the bachelor lifestyle. I like that. It's a good euphemism.
The bachelor lifestyle consists of a few basics. I fuck, I drink, I smoke and I do drugs. Let's break those down and analyse what peoples problems with them may be.
I fuck. Okay, I have sex regularly. I'm not married nor am I in a relationship. But humans are one of two or three mammals on the planet that fuck for pleasure, so hang me - I'm a fucking hedonist. One of my friend's mothers said about me 'That Spencer boy will never find a wife if he carries on the way he is. He's not living a christian life and I don't like you spending time with him.' Right. Where to begin? For a start the friend in question is a lovely lad. Bit of a pain in the arse when I'm having fun but apart from that, nice guy. I do not influence or even attempt to influence the way he lives. Plus his darling mother tried to fuck me when I was high as a fucking kite so she doesn't have a leg to stand on. By the way, if you're the husband to this woman I have texts that can confirm this little fact. The wife comment. One day, I would like to get married. But not to someone who can't accept my past or the man it has made me. Finally, the christian lifestyle. I have a problem with god. He has robbed me of an awful lot, but I don't hold that against him. These things happen. But I try to be a good person most of the time so me and him are okay. Just because I don't live by some ancient code written down by men and held up on high as the word of god when realistically it's just pompous, bigoted scripture doesn't make me a bad person. Correct? NEXT.
I drink. I drink too much, but at the moment I'm good with that. I can deal with it and it doesn't affect my life. Some people have called me an alcoholic. People can say what they like to/about me. People's opinions (barring a few) have very little effect on my choices. I drink because I want to. Not because I need to there is a very subtle difference there.
I smoke. I will quit when I no longer enjoy it. No more needs to be said.
I take drugs. I understand peoples problem with this one but it's my own choice and like I said previously I'm a hedonist. I do things that feel good and make me happy regardless of consequences. But the drug trade is filthy and disgusting. But I don't pressure people into taking them, if they want to I allow them to explore their curiosity and if they don't I leave the matter. I can understand people taking issue with this if they think I'm pushing their children/boyfriends/girlfriends/brothers/sisters into anything, but I'm not. Besides, deep down everybody knows their limits. I just refuse to listen to mine and ignore them as much as possible.
These 4 characteristics make up my lifestyle. Couple them with work and a house and you've got a happy single man. Happiness is all that matters to me. Fuck money, fuck possessions, fuck everything. I'd rather be poor, alone and happy than rich married to someone I hated and miserable.
What matters most to you?
