What are some disadvantages of living in rural areas? What are the advantages?

Lived in a beautiful custom built house.

you may have a more innate sense of adventure, and the idea of getting up and going out of the house is just a normal thing to do

I admit I am lamenting.

Wish you all the best,

if only you could take my experience of hot tubing during a -20 Celsius Canadian winters night and download it into your mind. We had a certain model of hot tub with a lay down lounge chair, imagine the led lights, clams popping out of the exterior walls of the hot tub shooting out streams of water, the sound of a waterfall cascading down. Surround sound speakers. Overhead a view of sky blanketed with stars. Unbelievable. No light pollution, not a care in the world.

Have you been arrested or investigated?

If I was able to stir up some memories from your childhood.

you have to deal with people who are conformists - when you go to school, everyone just seems to be average and predictable - it was like there was a handful of different ‘characters or profiles’, and most people fit into a neat little box. On the bright side, it made choosing/finding the outliers quite simple.

Fast forward to the present day….

Hello,hope y'all doin good, i came to Quora to share my strange story , a very weird one , a story when luck smiled at me ,maybe u will enjoy it , let's begin,have fun... A year ago ,I was a real porn addicted(btw I was 18) ,but never had sex before, I don't have a gf I didn't try to find one even ,always thinking to go to find a sex worker but then I just don't , everyday watching different bodies getting fucked and everyday enjoying. One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

less exposure to and judgement from stupid, sad, depressed people.

My dad had a convertible Chevy Corvette, a full on hard core gym in our basement and a secret walk in armory and safe room. Blast proof reinforced steel and concrete. Damn, I was raised by a cool dude.

you may be more connected to, and appreciative of nature. I had the time of my life looking for and playing with toads and frogs as a child. Beavers, deer, coyote death battles happening outside my bedroom window….

imagination - oh my f***ing god. It seemed like some people who where born and raised in a city environment are literally living without an imagination. Like they’ve never had a original thought in their lives.

if you are a person who requires high stimulation - likes a crowd, noise, and the ‘buzz’ of a densely populated area, you may have a prolonged sensation of unease and not exactly know why

On the topic of imagination as a kid you can shift your identity and take on a different role and act out an expansive detailed storyline. You can include others on your quests. You basically live out fantasies and have internal tales of triumph. Sure some people in a city could be creative and imaginative, my point is…when you are always in solitude, and alone with your mind - its the default condition.

What are the best ways to get as strong as Schwarzenegger? What foods, supplements, etc., should I use?

For reference the following ideas are coming from the view point of an adolescent mind that lived in a rural area from 1993–2012 (before social media).

I seem to somehow forget this fact as well….many days I would hear the roars of lions.

I’m going to list off a couple advantages and disadvantages.

What is your review of "Regent", episode 5 of Season 2 House of the Dragon?

Yes, real live lions.

I went into a pretty deep meditative state which sent me into a whirl wind of vivid imagery.

My family had 64 acres of land.

How do you write a letter to your uncle who sent you money for your birthday outfit?

I can tell you with high levels of confidence that my experience growing up in a rural area was overwhelmingly positive.

We basically had no neighbours.

While writing this, I had on some relaxing 432 hz music on.

Life was less trivial - doing things like cutting the grass, helping my dad build things, helping my mom in the garden….felt important, purposeful, and I had a higher sense of duty.

So I’ve seen both sides of the fence! Rural and Urban.

if you are a kid you will need a drive to your friend’s houses / it may be difficult for your friends to get a ride to your place

So, with that in mind…if you’d like to join me we are going to do a bit of time travelling today.

having a girl over was also extremely special. It really felt like I was inviting someone into my world. Being alone out in the country with your crush…you feel like…again you're in a movie and its supremely romantic environment.

Is anyone up to have a little conversation?

My grandfather also had a house on the property - a humble 10 000 sq. ft. bungalow, with an indoor pool. He had a massive barn for his race horses, it was full of antiques, and miscellaneous oddities.

proximity to shopping - its a whole ordeal - must be planned out first

I could keep going and going and going, so many memories are pouring in.

when you see a beautiful girl out there in the real world, it was life changing……like omg, literally jaw dropping, butterflies, the whole nine yards.

less noise - soooo little noise - peace, quiet, tranquility

To be more specific we were situated just about one hour north of Toronto.

There was a wild life sanctuary a few kilometers away.

going to the movies, an amusement park or even to a mall, felt special and like a big event….a massive deal - like Wo0oo00o0o0ow.

there is less rules - for example if you want to start a bonfire by shooting a gas can with a pump shotgun, go right ahead.

When I was a young boy, my life felt like a fairy tale.

I mean you could see their houses, but you’d need a set of binoculars to make out what was going on.

having a dog in the country is a completely different experience from having a dog in a city. When you can simply just open the door and let them outside - giving them the freedom to do their thing, was nothing short of incredible. They develop a personality, and you can tell how rich their life is compared to city dogs (lol just like people ;).

your world is more internal focused - may lead to having higher self-esteem, little to no anxiousness

Disadvantages

riding around your families property on a dirt bike as a kid, you feel like you are in a movie - things like this lead to higher quality of life and overall contentment as a child- you feel like you are so cool.

I release it to the internet.

The asker of the question calls for disadvantages first.

For added context, I have stayed in the following cities: Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Boston | Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver and currently reside in Calgary.

less jealously / envy - due to less comparison to others

not nearly as susceptible to state sponsored ideological brainwashing

your conception of the world is very small, you have no idea what or who is out there

people may be ‘stuck in their ways’ - unable to reconsider alternative ways of being / thinking.

Out in the wooded area, there was a ‘secret’ half mile oval shaped track. In the middle was a custom built pond in the shape of a ‘P’ (first letter of our last name).

I’d appreciate that.

Social media and screen addiction has profoundly wounded the human soul.

I was born and raised in the country.

Here’s a picture of the house - its been sold for some time now so it doesn’t matter anymore if

lack of entertainment options

most of the time I would just go outside in my boxers

Sam

have a better conception of who you are and what you like doing - less copying of others just for the sake of fitting in

when you hang out with someone, it is more meaningful and special because you have so little human contact outside of school and extra curriculars.

you have have big ass house parties and no police show up - I believe I had around a 60 person party and my older brother had well over 100 people. For the record there was no damage, just a clogged toilet.

If your family does not get a long and fights a lot - that’s basically all you see and know about the world until you leave and begin reformatting your brain.

without really putting yourself out there, with sports, meet ups, activities, parties etc …. and actively trying to meet a lot of people, you will be lonely (this can be great for some introverted types), but for me as I got older - I wanted more.

I didn’t know what the concept of lazy, or procrastination was when I was younger, I learned that through other kids, media and ‘society’.

I can distinctly remember the world before screens took over.

less keeping up with the Joneses - almost no gossip, rumors, talking behind each other peoples back - which I find is the standard for almost every person I meet, which is a despicable quality.

some people would say a lack of diversity. Whether that be culture, food, religion, thought, tradition, etc. This is certainly not a disadvantage to me, but it could be to you - so I’ll list it anyway

slower internet

I am 30 years old and have been living in a downtown city environment for 5+ years now.

I encourage you to express them in the comment section.

if your power goes out, that could be problematic

Here’s a picture of the late Pure Bred German Boxer dog Huxley:

Advantages

exploring the woods was magical, you are in instant flow state - a sense of wonderment encapsulates your entire being. You use your mind to transcend reality and enter a different realm or world - you did not require any sort of external influence. It was automatic - boom.

This is not some sort of smear campaign on people who grew up in the city, rather this is what I observed. This is my point of view.

security - people can come on your property and steal your riding lawnmower (this happened to us)

I didn’t have anyone to relate to really….

This is a major point for me here: if you are smart and/or ambitious, and there are no successful people living a high quality of life around you might become miserable, alienated, depressed and not have a clue why.

need to get bussed into town to go to school and you feel like you are different than the ‘city folk’
