Would you be friends with yourself?

[abchia]

I probably would, but only because i'd feel sorry for them.

Would you?

 

[Agon321]

With this pathetic, boring, lazy and worthless loser?
No way.

It's a waste of time and mental health for such a person.
Fuck him.

 

[lost_ange1]

No. I do not like myself, i do not have empathy for myself, i don't like all my problems,..
i am already enemies with myself.

 

[Seered Doom]

No, I would not because they're an irredeemable asshole

 

[lemonbunny]

no i understand very well why people want nothing to do with me

 

[Kavka]

Sure, friends with benefits too!

 

[Hollowman]

No

 

[rednights]

If I was a different person, sure. But I think it'd just feel too uncomfortable to talk to myself as me.

 

[leavingthesoultrap]

When I was more stable? Yeah. Nowadays? No.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Probably not. I'm too socially anxious to speak to anybody and that includes myself too

 

[Forever Sleep]

Probably but we wouldn't be good for each other. I guess we could form a suicide pact though.

 

[Caleb82]

Not if I value myself.

 

[redeeming_butterfly]

Of course and then I would be so kind and give him a peaceful clean blood choke.

 

[sinfonia]

No, I would probably ghost myself, if I'm being honest. I'm attached to bold personalities, not boring INTPs.

 

[ColorlessTrees]

Yes, of course. I may hate myself for my failures, but I like my core personality well enough (just not select traits and/or my weak will/circumstances) when I'm at baseline. I typically only connect with people that have similar tendencies to me, so in an act of ultimate narcissism, I would be best friends with my clone. My psyche is one giant contradiction, though; I hate arrogance.

If "we" got sick of each other we'd just affirm each other into simultaneous death. Or kill each other in a fit of rage, depending on my mood. I'm most interested in twistedly symbiotic relationships anyway.

 

[sserafim]

Yeah sure. Why not?

No, I would probably ghost myself, if I'm being honest. I'm attached to bold personalities, not boring INTPs.

What if you're a bold INTP?

 

[EvisceratedJester]

Fuck no, I'd never be friends with myself. I would probably be getting ready to beat the shit out of me.

 

[derpyderpins]

It's trippy to think about if I'm literally being friends with a clone of myself. It would just be a bunch of self-pity from one with the other being overly re-assuring. That and playing games and being overly congratulatory of the winner and never getting tired of that joke. ('oh, wow you're so incredible at this! I continue to be amazed at your raw talent!')

But if I'm saying just someone very like me, or that I'm not aware it's me: probably. I can be friends with a good number of people.

I wouldn't want to be friends with me from my younger days. That obnoxious alpha 'self-bragging but playing it off as a joke' and 'being sarcastic about everything' personality would get old fast.

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

As a super cool bro and a Sasu institution all my own, I would say most definitely. Even as it stands, I spend a lot of time high-fiving myself, and I don't care how retarded it looks.

Come on now, that's a low blow.

nah man it's great when you do it.

 

[nyul]

I would. Overall, I don't think I'm too bad. I understand why I am generally off-putting to others, but at the very least I am authentic. I don't know if I would be able to be my own friend, though, because I have issues getting close to people and I don't know how to actually have friends.

 

[wCvML2]

No, I'm insufferable when I am anything but silent. I would punch throat myself whenever I start awkwardly mumbling something.

 

[Deleted member 65988]

Nope, turns out it's very easy to cut someone like me off.

 

[eatantz]

I would, she would understand me. We could go to the skate park by the river and watch hot guys, while planning our joint ctb

Doesn't mean you're a bad friend. Sometimes people cut others off because of their own issues, and if you are kind but passive it's easier for them to do it guilt-free.

So. . . twins? I approve.

You have a point there, just seems to be a reoccurring theme that i eventually and inevitably become an afterthought when I don't matter anymore.

 

[Rocinante]

Yeah, there can never be enough of me.

 

[sensitiveguy]

I am in love with myself and I search it in other people.

 

[EvisceratedJester]

I know I say shit like this a lot but now that I'm thinking a bit more about it I wouldn't be friends with myself but for very different reasons. I don't tend to engage a lot with others irl. I'm very antisocial and I don't know how to initiate conversation with others. I rely on others to initiate first. I also am not the best with handling my emotions and communicating with others. I wouldn't be friends with me because it would just be too much work.

 

[Alltheywanted]

He'd be my best friend ;3
