Hello again Lemmy! I have another question.

Context: I took a motorcycle safety class, was nervous but enjoyed it, researched motorcycles, found a few I liked, talked to a dealer about them but ultimately, I couldn’t finalize a deal, talked myself out of it basically.

I was curious how others might justify a purchase that has no purpose other than wanting something.

For clarity, I don’t need anyone to justify me buying a motorcycle. I want to read about your thought processes for buying something you want 🙂

As always thanks for replying and have an awesome day/night!!

    I appreciate your perspective on this. I’m actually starting to believe that I’m not supposed to enjoy life 🙂

    I’m just here to go through the motions.

    Your point about want is a struggle for sure. Not just for me but a lot of people I assume.

    In my case I have no idea if it will bring any happiness or satisfaction. TBH, it will probably end up in the graveyard of hobbies. Which is probably why I won’t buy one.

    It’s a challenge for sure… spend to find out you don’t like something but, you had to spend money to find out if you like something.

    Thank you responding!!
