Venting you feel incomprehensible?

[Seele]

I always noticed that anything I said during my life fell on deaf ears, maybe it wasn't important or it was something too advanced for them to understand, but I suffer from this total misunderstanding, and I really think I'll never find anyone who understands, my refuge It was the philosophy of Mainlander and Carlo Michelstaedter, I think about maybe just working from home and never talking to anyone again because it's useless.
Have you ever felt misunderstood in any aspect of your lives?

I feel the same. Most people like small talk or talk about mundane stuff, while I'm looking to have a more complex, meaningful, and compelling conversation. They're too busy with life or too tired to listen to me or to be willing to engage in those conversations, so I feel like I shouldn't bother anymore and keep my ideas to myself or discuss what I'd like with people online. I live a rather isolated and very simple life so I have time to think about random ideas and scenarios. I would love to have someone with whom I could debate, but I have no one. I work from home and while it can become isolating and alienating, it's a blessing and a privilege I very much enjoy.

Thanks for replying, I was really convinced no one would care

i've passed the point where i need to feel understood by others. i don't seek validation anymore, i know that what i know is true. once you're able to see into the nature of your own mind, nothing in existence can deny you the truth. as for my refuge, it is deep sleep.

Wow, that hit home. I agree with crystal's point where most people wouldn't really care or completely cast me aside.

It also doesn't quite help that I'm introverted, and most of the time I keep to myself about everything.

I believe that there are people who were born outside the curve and are condemned to be alone, because it is a statistical reality, you may not understand me and I may not understand you either

Interestingly I feel the total opposite. Like I just don't have any input/opinion/feeling/ideas towards any meaningful debates or topics. I can only deal with small talk.
Might be due to poor memory meaning I have learnt not to try because I might make a point but can't remember any back up facts/proof or even where the idea came from so end up feeling like a conspiracy theorist with my ideas having no backing or response.
So I stay away from scenarios where closer relationships might develop more in depth conversations that I feel isolated in!

Wittgenstein once said that words are very limited, so it's actually really common for people don't understand one another, maybe the real difference is how much you notice that or be bothered by that
