The thing is, given any current time you are bound to feel certain ways, and even though you feel that way now, you won't feel that way forever. So when I say all of these things, I already know that I might feel differently later. I'm always surprised at the number of people who feel the need to tell you that you won't feel a certain way forever ( Read more... )

i find myself often feeling many of the things you describe here, but mostly THIS: I find it interesting that the default for posts like these, where a person states how they feel/what they think about X is actually perceived as an invite to debate. It's my journal. I'm stating how I feel. I'm not opening the floor to anything. If I were, I would be asking, "What do you think?"

also, the fact that you find yourself feeling ~whatever~ b/c everyone around you is better/faster/stronger/smarter/perfect... well i don't know what to do with that, b/c you're one of those ppl to me

and maybe you don't want to know this, maybe it makes you feel worse, but i almost didn't even write this comment b/c... well, what difference would i make?

I KNOW! IN THE FACT THAT YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE TO ME. And like..it's bizarre, isn't it?

No, it doesn't make me feel worse, really. It makes me feel bad for you because I suck so hard, dude. You are way more temperate. People still like you after the..you know, the thing.

i don't know if ppl like me, i never know if ppl just seem to tolerate me, if they are just "being nice" but secretly wish i would go away

Me too! That's why I sometimes delete my LJ entries shortly after I post them. Or wonder later if I should have. btw, you don't seem bitchy and opinionated to me. Well, occasionally opinionated, but not bitchy. I haven't the faintest idea how I seem online. I'm certainly a lot more verbose than in RL, where I tend to hold back and be reserved.
