Discussion How are the people in your life like?

[barely_afloat]

Not much goes on in my life. It's pretty empty. I wish it wasn't so empty.

 

[-nobodyknows-]

They're good people, but I don't think I really belong with them. I'm a lot more messed up than anyone else I know

 

[bleeding_heart_show]

At this point I only keep contact with others because it would be a pain to have them showing up looking for me if I went silent.

I would have to change my address, email, and phone number to avoid contact being reestablished.

 

[_soulless_]

Narcissists

 

[relapse]

I barely have any people in my life and the few people I know feel uncaring. Being alone makes me feel less lonely than interacting with others

Honestly, I wish someone would care that much. But well, only if they cared for the right reasons.

I get you. I wish it wasn't like this. Wanting people but the right people who actually care.

 

[The Unanswered Q]

The only people I have are my family, most of whom are awful. My sister just yelled at me for closing a window.

It is frustrating that we cannot trade problems.

I would prefer if nobody noticed my disappearance.

 

[SchizoGymnast]

A lot of people care about me...so much so that when I went missing for a few hours, the police were called. I was so embarrassed!

I am a bit of a paradox. I work in retail and human services and I have the gift of gab, a winning smile, and that whole people-loving personality. But inside I just want to be alone in my room, pondering dark things with my cats. I view extended social interactions as a high intensity workout. I need to prepare before, power through, and recover after.

 

[BoyWhoTripped]

Nowadays I've cut contact with a lot of people who were close to me, for various reasons. I'd say I don't interact much with people in my life, and even if I did, it wouldn't make me feel any less alone. I don't really belong with anyone here. I often feel alienated and like I can't connect with anyone emotionally. It's quite lonely.
There are a select, very few people who care and show me kindness though, and I love them and appreciate them deeply.

 

[supremacyofdeath]

I have no family.
My mother was abusive growing up and my father checked out of my life pretty early on. Everyone else I'm just biologically related to I don't speak to. For good reasons.
I don't have any friends
My coworkers are very polite, usually talk about video games and music or complain about management/bitchy customers/workload. Pretty surface level things.
My girlfriend is pretty much my whole life. I only talk to her. It's fine but I tend to get uneasy when she delays to reply or just isn't very affectionate outside of what feels like cuddling and sex. she spends all her time on video games with her friends while I'm at work and usually stays up way after I come home. She'll ask me how work was goodnight/goodmorning and whatnot but we used to be way closer. We're very close yet a bit strained. But I love her with all my heart and she's the goddess of my heart.

I'll make some device to swap our consciousnesses or something. If it fails, we're dead anyways.

 

[Dark Moon]

I just have my family left. I think my mum somewhat cares about me still and that's it.

 

[Aplev]

No one really. Quite literally. Just a few online people I talk with occassionally.

 

[other-ghost]

Nice and creative people, most of them are high achiever. Can't really relate with them, though.

 

[Apathy79]

99% of my life doesn't have other people in it. The rare times it does, they seem fine, but the connection is disappearing with time away.

 

[FoxSauce]

My sisters are fine, my mom still being difficult but fine but other members of family dunno

 

[Thekla]

Infinitely smarter than me, smarter than 95% of people really. Unfortunately, I'm much dumber than 95% of people. Maybe as a perverted way to balance it out.

 

[patheticparasite]

They are far too lenient and forgiving. I wouldn't put up with myself as much as they do.

 

[Buh-bye!]

If only i could read and understand people. I just don't know who's what or what goes in their mind at times, what are their needs and stuff. I feel so incompatible that way. Is that apathy?
