Anyone else feel irrelevant in the world?

[Weebster]

I feel like a ghost. I don't know anyone outside of family.

 

[lostmylove]

Similar situation. My family will be the only ones who care when I'm dead. It's sad that it's come to this. Losing my partner has been worse thing for me, in many ways. But knowing that I'll never hear from him again really isolated me. Wasn't aware how alone I was until he passed.

 

[SuicidallyCurious]

Yes, and that is exactly how I like it .

Have my little bit of cash , free time , no one knowing me or getting too close. Fame and notoriety are a con. They ruin life , you can't be left alone

 

[FuneralCry]

I do feel irrelevant and that is the way I want it to be. Our lives do not really matter after all, eventually we will all die and be forgotten about. Life is so temporary and meaningless, it does comfort me that all my problems will die when I do.

 

[Crazy4u]

Yup. I am so irrelevant. I feel the same way when i am surrounded by people

 

[Fadeawaaaay]

Already gone

 

[Freedomindeath4me]

Been a shell of a person since before I even became a man. Just a loser on SSI who walks the streets smoking cheyennes. Can't relate to people. Ashamed I haven't properly committed suicide yet more than anything. So yeah but no. Irrelevant but also a miserable fucking burden that the government doesn't have the maturity to bring to death.

 

[its-about-time]

Yup. Always assume everyone has forgotten about me. I'm genuinely surprised when I get "hello" texts. I have a friend who texts me every day and it still surprises me lol.

 

[downndone2]

Yes. Other than my job, my kids, my dogs, a few friends, and several family members I'm completely irrelevant. On the above list, my kids and dogs are really the only reason I've made it this far.

I feel like no matter what I do or who I come to know, I will always feel irrelevant. What does one average human amount to in this world where there are billions of others? While I am alive, the people close to me may know who I am. When I die, they may remember me until they die as well. But once they die as well, my existence will be forgotten as if I never existed and that will only become more true as years continue to go by. Even when I am alive, I am irrelevant to anyone else outside of my circle of family and few friends. And if we consider how vast the universe is, Earth is but just another tiny planet in a tiny galaxy with a dying star amongst the infinity of space. Really, I feel like the relevance of humans is just the same as ants but we just like to convince ourselves that we aren't. Perhaps humanity has learned to deceive itself by thinking too highly of human relevance because if we didn't deceive ourselves, maybe more people would realize we aren't relevant at all and life is inherently meaningless in the grand scope of everything. (These are just my personal thoughts.)

 

[AreWeWinning]

Yes. And sometimes I wish I didn't have family either. Then I could be even more irrelevant, and just go in peace, and noone would care. Would be easier.

 

[wanttogetonthebus]

I do. But I didn't choose to get put on this rock in the first place.

SN is the best thing we have at the moment other than N to help people who want to CTB. Exit international are good to read up on about the various methods they suggest. We demand the right to a dignified death, it should be our choice and we shouldn't be vilified for exercising our rights over our own bodies.

 

[Meursault4]

Same, I doubt anyone cares about me, the only times people call me to meet is when they are feeling lonely. Other than those instances I feel discarded, as I'm only entertainment or company for most people.
Even when I talk to others, I have a deep seated feeling that they don't care for what I have to say (unless of course they want something to gossip about behind my back), usually most conversations is them saying what they want and to climb the social ladder of life.
I doubt my parents really want me either apart from wanting me to look good - education wise - so they have something to compare to my better off cousins. Maybe they also just want some money off me as well if I live long enough to get a job. I'd still rather they'd forget me because their the only reason I'm still living even though I believe they'd only care about the cost of the funeral and what others would think of them.
tl;dr: feel needed but not wanted.
