Could you leave behind the material world and lead a monastic life?

No, I’d miss the real world too much. I’d miss staying out, or even just staying up for as long as I want, and eating and drinking what I want. And I’d miss people I know and love too of course. And they’d probably make me pray for long periods too. If I was to go to any monastery, I would definitly choose a Buddhist one though, all that meditating could get interesting.
I keep trying to do the opposite

No; very few are up to such a lifestyle. But there are worse ways to live. You need a lot of faith to do that. I need a lot more.
I could, possibly, consider living in an Amish community. They have great food and quilts. lol
Yes,yes I could….for alittle while ;)
