Tiny vent (not really, venting about my horrible social akills.)
So lately I've been feeling like sort of someone who just can't text. I just cant, im so bad at doing it and I've never been able to fix it.
Ive always been awkward irl and have had trouble keeping in contact with people. I don't have loyalty it feels like I just move where the wind takes me. Genuine amazing people become friends with me but then they realize I'm too much, or im not right, or I'm just not worth talking to, and I end up forgotten. Nevermind the fact that I do the same thing to others.
Ive never been able ti keep friends around. It's a shock I even have a friend that has lasted more than 2 years.
All I've ever wanted is friends that i could be around and at least listened, and accepted me. I have that now irl, but I'm scared im going to lose them too. I try not to think about it because these people are people I care about so much.
And sometimes i wish I wasn't nonhuman. That I was a normal human and I was perfectly okay and was just.... idk normal to societies standards. Maybe I would keep people around. Maybe I wouldn't lose online friends and others because i knew how to react to things. Maybe it would be much easier for me to hear others and finally be able to understand what people are saying.
I learnt recently that I have an issue hearing people. (As if I didn't know) When i don't know people well I only catch 25% of what people are saying (guesstimate, because for the most part I only catch less than half of what others are saying)
It makes me feel so shallow. I hate having mental shifts halfway through a conversation and people's words becoming garbled nonsense even when they are being clear.
I hate how horrible I am at comforting people. I hate how I'm unable to understand people through text. I hate it I hate it I hate it.
And god the perfectionism. It's horrible, it's so bad I will spend so much time rewriting a single message to someone. I have to always send the perfect text. I can't let myself just text either, because it won't be good enough.
Am I expecting too much out of others? I feel like I've been pushed to my breaking point when it comes to online relationships. Nobody sticks around. I want them to, so bad, but they always leave me. Always.
I just can't click with people. Im angry and it hurts and I feel like giving up on people and friendships because it's just not working and-
ugh. Whatever. I need to stop this is spiraling into a rant. bye.
