Quote:It could, young man, if only you'd loosen your embrace. Lighten up. The world won't end if you don't have a relationship. Take care of Maslow's pyramid, stop worrying about how you come across to others. Be yourself, and do things you like to do. You will at that point meet people who have at least one thing in common with you, though they may or may not like you. All you're doing is evening the odds, okay? Understand that you won't like everyone you meet, and not everyone will like you, and that's okay. There's no law saying people have to like you, no law saying you have to like them, and no way you will ever find happiness so long as you're so goddamned afraid. You will get hurt. You will get pissed. You will get happy, too.Be yourself? :^)))))))))))))))) Oh my god. You realize "be yourself" means be totally fake, force yourself to appear happy, say the most astute and diplomatic things as to not upset people, lie politely, just be the "real you". You realize that people say shit like "the real you" is the you when you're nice to be around, right? Oh my god it's so fucking gross. I have been myself on this forum, people obviously fucking hate me. Just be yourself everyone will like you :^))))))))))))
Let go of your fears and anxieties. Be considerate of your fellow human. Speak the truth as you sense it, while at the same time remembering that your truth can hurt other people. Should probably avoid wearing trenchcoats or sunglasses at night (not that you do, just covering all the bases).
Brooding loners don't get laid, but social skills can be learnt. Do you want to learn, or do you want to wallow? I don't often agree with him, but KUSA is right; it's not hard to find yourself in a relationship. You have to put yourself in a position where your good qualities shine, and where the people with whom you wish relations are present. And you have to be unafraid.
I never actually get a fucking chance to talk with people. I have no idea what it takes to actually get engaged in a conversation with a person outside of the internet. I always go to concerts to go out to cafes or record stores or something, I have no fucking idea what to do. I just walk in and get some stuff and then I walk out like no one even fucking noticed me. I usually talk to the people behind the counter if it's a record store a little bit, because they're just there and I can. It doesn't make a difference. You act like I have this problem with talking to people, I never even fucking talk to people in the first place. God, all the stuff you're saying would be fine, if it actually applied to me.
Oh and blah blah blah, this is really redundant, this talk of there's no law that people have to like me. That is so extremely obvious to me, I don't even need you to pour salt in the wound. Also, what am I afraid of? Afraid of something that never even happens in the first place? No I'm not fucking afraid to talk to someone I just wish that it would fucking happen. Even on okcupid conversations only last a few sentences, then they don't really go anywhere. This world is just getting to be so impersonal, we've lost all ability to connect with others.
You think I'm a fucking brooding loser? Screw you. I think that's crap how people only like someone if they're not upset. People are selfish, greedy fucking pigs. They're so blind to what a person is actually like, what if a person was upset but was actually an interesting person? I guess everyone really does wish that people who are depressed would just fucking die. That's all they care about is superficial crap like who can behave the happiest, and hold up their stupid, fucking facade of life. I don't like people like that, people like that who are so absorbed in their own self confidence, I wish they would go fucking die.
KUSA is right? Okay so basically, I just have to act like I have really good qualities in front of others, then the person who I desire will notice. First of all I have no fucking idea where to find said person who you think I will be able to get them to notice me. I go to places in real life all the time, what do you think I can do to get noticed? This is one of the things that really pisses me off about people. All the time they will tell me that if I'm tired of being on the computer then I should just go outside and find someone to be friends with. I don't even get a chance to talk with people when I'm outside my house, it never happens.
Okay so if I'm supposed to just go outside and find someone to be friends with, I guess you could just tell scientists "oh, if you're so tired of not discovering extraterrestrial life, why don't you just get on your fucking telescope and find some extraterrestrial life?" What the fuck. No, whoever is reading this, stop thinking about whatever retort you're trying to make, just ask yourself whether or not you feel like you're fucking wrong. Please. Once you find the person, then do you get to stop putting up the incredibly energy consuming effort of the charade anyways?
Let me tell you something big boy. I think that what people say about real life being the place where people are real is wrong. In real life you are absolutely fake. People don't get to see any side of your in real life because they don't see anything about you besides your skin and some fucking lies we spew out of our mouths. Online people get to be who they really want to be, they actually get to say things they want to say and show sides of themselves they wouldn't otherwise show.
Okay, so now that I've thoroughly torn apart this aggravating text, I'd like to see someone tell me how I'm wrong about all of this, using quotes and refutations and not just some declarative statement that I'm supposed to take at face value.
