I've just wanted to love and be loved, to have a best friend, life partner. But it's so difficult to find someone that cares about anything beyond their own hide. It seems like people's lives are to small to even include someone else's life in it. I've effectively self-isolated because I'm tired of shallow, selfish people, that there seems to be a lot of anymore. I can't even find real friends anymore, because no one makes the effort. And I've seen a lot of people playing mind games, trying to manipulate me... It's ridiculous. You want to surprise me, be a decent human being that actually wants to make a connection.
