Current Events > I am incapable of making friends. Ask me anything.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Whens the last time you wore pantyhose? Lol

Lies

Making friends is easy if you want it and actually try.

In June, perhaps?

Incorrect. Some people are just plain incapable.

No.

You're just using the term "incapable" as an excuse for not even trying.

You're not a bad person, TC. There's definitely people out there who would want to be your friend if you let them.

Can I be your friend? I struggle too and I'd like more friends.

You're supposed to set up an AMA with something mildly interesting, not something that everyone reading it already relates to

You're welcome to try, but I have a horrendous track record. Pretty much everyone who has ever tried has left me in the dust.

I won't be your friend. I think you have value and so I think you deserve better.

What about me

What value do you see in yourself?

Follow up question, do you think it's fair for others to find value in you when you're unwilling to value yourself?

You have to do something about self-loathing before anything else can change. You can still take issue with yourself, or aspects of yourself, but it cannot be allowed define your existence.

Pride and positive reinforcement have value, even as an individual. Find things that make you less sad than normal. Identify why they make you feel even a little bit better. Then remind yourself, these are the things I can do. Even if it's something small, it matters in the grand scheme of self-recovery.

Hell, think of it as beating an addiction to self-hate at this point. Any action you can take that isn't self-hate should be viewed as a positive action and built off of from there.

I'm sorry that it's so tough for you, but I know that you are capable of this. As a passive observer and lurker, this is something you can accomplish

Hey me too! I've had a lot of friends do that so I think we will get along just fine.

How come you never do AMAs?

Bump

Do you actually want friends? I feel like you reject people a lot.

What happens when GameFAQs shuts down?

I mean, do you actually want friends and willing to change your situation/habits/etc. to do it?

Because you want things to just happen to you. It's been explained to you many times already that just sitting there isn't gonna do anything.

Wanting to connect to someone, yet fearing connecting to someone
Wanting to be relied on, yet fearing being relied on
Wanting to be loved, yet fearing that same love

Responsibility, fearing the failure to uphold that responsibility.
Failure, Rejection, Disappointment, these thre things are like swords piercing your flesh when you think they are directed at you and like demons gnawing at your soul when your fears are confirmed. it hurts, it hurts so much that the pain is unbearable yet there are no wounds on your body anywhere to the point you could end up in tears apologizing to nothing, apologizing for your very existence as if it everything you are and been has led up to this realization and confirmation of rejection, failure and disappointment. It hurts so much just imagining this scenario is enough to scare you away from anyone and everyone to the point the mere thought of interacting with another being of this world makes you feel as if you are standing in front of a loaded gun or a sharped blade aiming itself directly at you ready to fire/stab the very moment you make a move, say anything, if you do or say anything it will inflict the pain you've been dreading all this time, so you say nothing, you do nothing and eventually the blade will sheath, the gun will be hosted and you start to breathe easily, while being filled with self resentment that once again you've cowered away from potential pain that may not exist.

do you ever feel like that, tc?

I still like you, Rose. I just feel bad that I can't help you and you're such a nice person who deserves better. :(

Hey, how was your weekend?

@FarmFox Nothing worth mentioning, >.< . I've been upset the last couple of days because of gacha failure, though.

You?
