people suck...or maybe im just being overly sensitive.

meme · 12-08-2007, 01:22 AM

lately ive been trying to be more social, and i dont know if it;s me or what, but it seems like people are being more critical of me or im more sensitive.

for example, i offered to do make-up for my friend and they said no, so of course, i got my feelings hurt. i work from home and havent heard from my boss in a while, so i email him to see whats up and he says he has been busy and might have more work for me, but is trying to expand his portfolio and is trying out other people's styles (i do graphic design).

i feel like this is happening a lot and its really making me just want to close off. any advice?

Nope, you're right. People DO suck. Backstabbing, nasty, sneaky, arrogant bastards, the lot of them.

I must agree. While there are good people out there, you will likely encounter many more people you wish you'd never met. The world has become such a cold, ugly place. I mean I saw on Youtube just today a video of young guys getting coffee from a drive-thru at a restaurant and then as a joke they threw it on the person who served it to them and sped off laughing. I don't think that little game went on 20 years ago.

But that's besides the point I guess. I think we all have to have a little faith in people but just be careful. Many of us on this forum fear making fools of oursevles and there are a lot of people out there who pick up on that and will try to help us right along with doing it. You know, like the co-workers or classmates who constantly ask you why you're so quiet very loudly in front of others and grin at you knowing full well how uncomfortable they're making you. I know I'm not alone in experiencing this.

I also agree. When I wake up to a world with no more crime, law breaking or suffering, only then will I say people are good.

yea ppl suck and ppl can be so ignorant. I have been discriminated against because of my OCD...you know the so called normal ppl being scared of "crazy ppl" and all when they find out you have a mental illness. it doesn't matter if you are more compassionate or intelligent or more artistic then they are, they somehow think having OCD is something to look down on. how dare they? we are not criminals and speaking for myself, i've never hurt anyone and don't intend to. OCD isn't even that kind of metal illness.. it's unfair to be discriminated against and talked about constantly. It's not like the so called "normal" ppl are any less ****ed in the head then ppl with mental illnesses. Married ppl who sleep around, women who gossip about nonsense day in and day out. racists who automatically look down minorities the list goes on and on. anyway I think im getting side tracked here lol rant rant rant i know :oops: but i mean ppl, average ordinary ppl in 1st world countries are soooo fuked up, the most fuked up. but by the virtue of them being "normal" and average and being one of the herd, they feel as they have the right to ridicule and discriminate the "crazies".

People aren't bad... at least not the majority of them. Sure, there's a few dickbags here and there but they're usually pretty easily avoided. There's a lot you can do if you break down the walls of fear, I can tell you that much. Think outside the box.

I play an onlin mmorpg called unescape and met a guy who randomlynwalkednup to me and bet me 60k (the games max trade limit) that he enjoys life less than me. He then explained to me he much he hates everyone for being ignorant. I felt a connection wig that guy and added him to my friends list and until now he was the only guy I knew of hat also has social phobia. We are now great friends.

I HATE arrogant ignorance
