I almost always feel comfortable around others in a business sort of setting. When it comes to casual meetings and activities, I want the fuck out. I remember back when I had friends, and we went out to go eat, but I was bored to death. What was there to talk about? We already discussed poop. We talked about sex and food too. What was the point? Friends don’t last, they just come and go. We all run out of things to say, and being stuck in an unfulfilling relationship is… unfulfilling. I don’t get why people are so happy on the TV and outside in the “real world.” It seems fake. I think that deep down, people are real scum, like the average person could be as bad as Hitler if they had the chance to truly express themselves rather than submit to societal discipline. And yes, optimistic hopefuls will talk about how easy it is to kill people if they really wanted to, but I think that most people are just afraid of getting caught.

Can I be honest with you?…Ive been through that same situation multiple times. I understand how you feel but not all people are scum. Its just that you should try to pick your friends wisely and see if they would treat you the way you want them too. Not all friends stay forever, we all know that, but the ones who are actually there for you and talk to you about anything just to keep a conversation will stay. But whats more important than friends is making yourself happy. You dont always need someone to make you feel happy all the time. Get out, do something, go to a concert, go shopping, just do something you enjoy or atleast something that would keep you from being unhappy and depressed. That works for me sometimes and it keeps me from being depressed. I hope this helped you somewhat 🙂
Well… I do quite a few things I enjoy myself, but I can’t help but feel like I am missing out on something.
You aren’t missing out on anything trust me. You will find something that will always keep you hapoy no matter what it is. Someday you might find someone who truly loves you. So dont keep being sad because you feel like nothing us keeping you excited. You arent missing out on anything, something is missing out on you.
I was just reading something that may answer one of those questions. Haven’t finished reading it yet though;

I posted a link to something I was just reading that maybe answered one of your questions. Maybe about halfway through the article it mentions how to enjoy moments for what they are. I can’t seem to grasp it but other people have. It’s awaiting moderation if you want to go check it out.
Ever see that old movie “The Jerk”? Steve Martin and Bernadette Peters I believe. This is what came to mind when I read the beginning of your post. You feel confident in a business setting…because you have a PURPOSE for being there. So what you need to do is follow Steve’s example and look for your PURPOSE outside of work. Or just you tube the movie. It is ridiculously, hilariously stoopid. Can’t help but make you feel better about yourself…and if nothing else, it requires no social interaction. 😀
Not sure whether to say I am glad to see you are still here…or sad that you are still here. What a pickle !! ha 😀
People aren’t bad, although they seem to incline that way on the path of least resistance. Society makes it easier for people to take the low road rather than stick to their principles. Even when such low roads lead to violating societal restrictions. It’s a very strange quandary.
Wow. Just finished reading the link I posted. That’s a big bunch of crap right there. Sorry about that 🙂
It’s okay, at least you tried. 😛
i feel the same way, dn. like if you’re talking to real people about real things it’s fine, but people tend to go into retard mode when they’re just ‘chillin. however i think not wanting to be there when you’re talking to your casual friends while doing casual activities has something to do with oxytocin. :S
It also has to do with getting bored by not having some clear objective – which is an ironic ADHD trait. Overfocused type.
