Love AND Money

Yesterday Mr R was in his depressed mood again.
Our conversation went like this:
R: I'm bored
N: ha? how come you bored? thought u always very busy
R: I'm bored with life
N: .....................

I think this is normal really. I'm bored with my life sometimes, very routine what.
But in the case of Mr R, it has gotten a tad more frequent this year, to the extent I think he is in mild depression. I mean, life is full of up and downs right, there are times when we are unhappy what, but if you are unhappy all the time, maybe something is wrong emotionally lah.

So I emailed his good friend, Mr P, telling him that he has a depressed friend out of humour lah. Very bored what, work work work.
Suprisingly, Mr P replied in a very serious manner, telling me that it is normal for a man of 32 year of age - single - with all his friends either married or attached - to behave like that. So Mr R's reaction is normal lah.

I was really quite taken back, normal? Really??
So kepo me go and talk to another male friend and the conclusion is.... IT'S REALLY NORMAL!
His rationale is: Men are very simple beings, at all times they must have money and love. Cannot either or okay, it must be both. So if no food, it's okay, then wont complain coz have money and love.

So we analyse Mr R situation, though Mr R has money, he is depressed and whiny because his basic needs is not balanced. He only has money, but love part not fulfilled. So if now we sholve a gf to Mr R, he will stop complaining/whining.... ok make that LESS complains/whines.

Apparently men needs to talk too, and all these while I thought you just need to give them a remote control/joystick and they will be happy as bird.

So is this theory real? Is this another Ripley's Believe It or Not?

I also dunno siah.
