Other options, for things I would actually do, means I don't have "three hours to spare" as they need to be done.

Like there's only four things to do in the whole wide world...
Do you guys get so little spare time you forgot how to use it? 
I checked watching a movie (series is fine too), but I also enjoy gaming, playing the piano, sometimes studying, taking a walk outside, listening to music, wasting time on CP...

Yes.
The lazy on me say: Watch Netflix
The gamer on my say: Play a game
The programmer in me say: Read a book
It's hard to fight the lazy one, specially because he hardly gets a chance to show himself. Being an expat with a wife and a little makes having a choice quite a rare scenario.

Try being single and being your own boss working from home with little to no social life, I've got spare time like you wouldn't believe

I cannot compute that.

If you have the spare time, you should find someone special and spend it with them. Just a thought.
Unless your solitary living is by choice, then whatever floats your boat.

Bit of both really.
I love being alone (most of the time) which makes it hard to find someone special as I don't like to go out and meet people.
I recently had someone special, someone I thought I could share my life with, for the first time in my life, but she broke my heart instead so I guess I'll be alone for a little while longer.

Sorry to hear. I am a bit of a loner myself, but managed to find someone. 20+ years marriage. 2 teenage children.
It will happen if you want it to.
It seems you have a positive attitude about things, so that is good.
Cheers.

I don't want kids, I prefer winter to summer (hate the beach), I'm an evening/night person, I'm an introvert and I prefer staying inside to going outside.
To top it off, I don't believe in marriage, but that's an opinion I'm willing to let go as I've found out that's most girls biggest dream for some reason.
So far I mostly match with two women, my mom and my grandma 
It's a really unpopular set of opinions and character traits (especially with the girls).
And it's also difficult to find people like that because, like me, they prefer to spend their time alone at home 
I was at a party recently and I spoke to a girl who was speechless about me not liking the summer and looking forward to autumn, she literally said "wow, I've never heard anything like that before and I don't know what to say."
I don't even mention the kids thing anymore because that usually just gets me a lot of hate (and unfortunately, it's one of the first things women ask on dating apps).
At my age (31) it's particularly difficult to find a nice girl as most people are settling, marrying and starting a family.
After my last two relationships (the last being almost six years ago already) I decided I'd rather be alone than with the wrong person, but perhaps maybe I'll find someone someday.

About pretty much everything except finding a girl (and humanity in general)

Well, at least you know what you want. Most people never allow themselves to discover that, and end up living a miserable life.

The point isn't to list every possible option for spending 3 hours uninterrupted.
The point is to see which of these limited choices you'd typically make. And yes, it's a deliberately narrow set of choices.

at least have a "none" or other. Every poll needs an out, or you are stuck in an infinite loop of "none apply" but can't select that, so can't answer poll.
|

|

"Sitting and Thinking" is basically the "None" option.
Again: it's deliberately limited.

I cannot do anything for 3 hours in one go. Besides not doing anything. I'm pretty good at that.
