if you had to choose between being content and being happy, which one would you choose?
I know the OP is a hypothetical, but I still pick “content”.
I’ve been somewhat depressed (not suicidal or anything like that) for a loooong time, and “happiness” seems almost like some foreign concept to me, like an unnatural, unhealthy high.
I think it would be easier to come down from being content than from happy.
It’s been decades, but being broken hearted is debilitating, and it’s somewhat liberating to not have to depend on another individual.
Wow, I sound kinda screwed up…

Sounds like you had some bad stuff happen. You do take a risk when you invest feelngs in another, but that pays big rewards if you get lucky. And luck has A LOT to do with it in many ways. They do say time heals all wounds, but that's not really true. It can help dull the edge, but you never forget the bad or the good. You just carry on and make the best of it.

poor hick...earn some cash then you too can retire...
Hey stoopid, I AM retired. And I'm single. And I'm far from being old enough to collect Social Security.
I'm also happy.
I pity you. You'll never earn enough to retire.
