How a person chooses to spend their free time is up to them. I'm a homebody. I don't go out often for entertainment unless it's with friends or fiance to a bar or something (don't really like bars all that much either). I entertain myself mostly with video games (my fav), books, movies and shooting. I workout 4-5 days a week, Only 2 of those require me to leave the house. I'm healthy and have healthy relationships with loved ones. I love the hell out of my fake worlds. If I decide to binge play a game in a fake world when I get the chance, there are no negatives to my life. I get where you're coming from and I'm sorry about your friend but people decide what's important to them for themselves.
