I don't even know what conclusion you or I are going to draw from and it's not going to fix any of out inferiority complex. or feeling of envy but i am just thinking out loud.
preframe: there is a group of people I hang out with from one of my social settings and we met up recently in the past week because it was holiday. we played this for the second time and each time it's really revealing and thought-provoking etc.
the game is super simple :
Rule 1: we write questions and chuck them in a bag/ container etc.
Rule 2: pass the bag around and pick a question and answer it.
Really good game, trust me, it's basically similar to truth or dare. but I play it with church people so the questions are a bit more in-depth, but you can play with any group of people.
Anyways the bag was passed around to this guy, almost 60 in age, but dresses amazingly fashionable more trendy, trust me he would put most guys to shame. His question was "who would you want to swap lives within this room.
You know what he said. he said " No-one". I can't remember the reason after that because I tuned out after his answer. to be honest I knew he would say the standard answer of "oh I love myself yada yada. very auto-response answer " but part of me thought he might say anyone else because they were younger. If I was him I would say someone else.
I thought about my answer if I had to answer it but no -one in this room is anyone to write home about, they are mostly girls and again they are really religious people, I'm not that religious anyways.

who would you pick to swap with?
Even to this point, I thought about it. surely there are people I would like to swap with.
look around you and your friend circle, who do you want to swap with and think .. really?
- I wish I was super-rich, billionaire rich yes, like Elon musk rich, dubious, but swap lives with Elon musk, with all that stress will just hit with a tonne of bricks if I suddenly became the richest man alive, on top of running so many companies.
- I wish I was wiser, but not older like the 60-year-old dude. I would not want to swap lives with that guy
- I wish I was hustling more like Gary Vee, but swap lives with them to be constantly worrying about posting every day, being hyper-energetic, no.
- I want to be more attractive, maybe even celebrity attractive, like Justin Beiber, or Zayn malik, or some very attractive dude these days, but do i want to just swap lives with them.
- I wish I had a youtube channel but swap lives with pewdiepie, I'm not even that big of a gamer, etc.
- I also thought about what if swap lives with a guy who has slept with hundreds of women, you'd think it be great but i did not achieve anything. he's the one who already had all these experiences, I did not I just inherited the status.
there is so much more i wish I was this etc, but the point I realize is all i want was to be a better person, more attractive, get more sex and relationship, money, etc, but I don't want to just swap lives with anyone that easily. Maybe for days etc but not for a long time.
Most people have issues with themselves and they fantasize about other people's lives, but I feel that most people would not want to swap lives with anyone because there is something about themselves or lives that they like. I guess I like myself more than I thought, we all do. I like a lot of aspects of other people but I don't wish i would just swap lives with them forever. I wish I was taller and more handsome but I don't wish I look completely different than how I look now.
this topic is too complex, there was a lot more floating around in my head I wanted to write about but can't get yet.
Now if I had the power to shapeshift, that would be amazing, hahaha
