FMH Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Remember the only that is constant is change. So things do change, if you gave them time and space. And also, things never remain the same with your friends/relatives. So you make new friends. Make sure you are getting out enough, and not sitting behind closed doors doing things you enjoy (such as interneting, youtubing, or fixing computers). Take out time to meet people you know or don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanctified Veteran Posted September 5, 2012 Veteran Share Posted September 5, 2012 Also a lot of ppl in the area I grew up in are still acting like they need to be badasses and do stupid **** and be *******s to ppl to look cool....they still haven't grew up mentally and spiritually oh come on! This is corny, grow a pair (figuratively). This 'people are so mean and they think they're cool! woe me!' is so old and self-serving. This is how the world works, this is how nature works, the strong survive, always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still be strong and not be an ******* to everyone. I know plenty of strong people that still are friendly to people... and just becuase you talk like a hardass doesn't mean you are strong either... I know plenty of "all bark and no bite" people...

remixedcat Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I know your feeling too, because in my original home was the same, but I saw each one of them to fall down on the way and then I moved out of there, problem now? apparently dust. A lot of the "popular" people I knew at school are living at momma's trailer with 8 kids.. LOL I just look back at em and laugh.... some of those people were the same people that would make fun of me for not wearing designer clothes... and look where they are now!!! LOL What does bad and hardassery has to do with being an a**hole? well ther thing is... where I grew up and a lot of small towns in the south and appalachia, many people think that being friendly to people is "uncool" and you are "faggy" or "wussy" or "special" that's how it was in my school. any nice guys (I hang out with guys more becuase less drama and more likely to be geeks) were called "fags" at my school.... some people are still like that even grown up.

Arceles Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Fair enough, didn't know that. I was severely bullied as a kid and I can confirm remixedcad opinion too, if one choses to be friendly... in a wrong circle of persons, that one will have a really bad time with said circle. Teachers don't care either, I tried... and it was worse. Charisma, f0rk_b0mb and remixedcat 3 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to move back here for family tho .. :-( I can relate to some of that. remixedcat 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teachers don't care either, I tried... and it was worse. This is what irks me. You were bullied? Fight back! You were ignored? Make yourself get noticed! People made fun of you because you're nice? Make them know they're the ones who are wrong! Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakey Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I was going to go on some long rant, and at the end, figured it would be easier to just say... Friendship is determined by what you put into it. If you don't make the effort for it, you will not have it. If you care what others will think about your friendship, then the person obviously doesn't mean enough to you. If you find yourself alone, it is most likely because you are not reaching out enough for others. sanctified 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm long done with that, what I discuss here is a completely different matter, of course it shaped me in a way but I got my slow revenge :D, anyway, today I fell nice, thanks guys.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted September 6, 2012 Veteran Share Posted September 6, 2012 Life is, in fact, what you make it. It really is as simple as this. If you sit around and do nothing about things, guess what, they are not going to change. If you make an effort to change things, although it may take longer then you want, things will indeed change. Not really much more else to say IMHO (although I will). If you are lonely, find a special interest group in your area. There has to be some kind of computer club or something you can join if that is what you enjoy. Do you like reading? Go down to your local bookstore, read a book and hang out. Do you have the ability to rent movies? If so, I STRONGLY suggest the move Craigslist Joe. If that movie did one thing for me, it proved there are in fact still plenty of decent people out there. It also shows that no one really has any answers in this game called life, they all just figure out a way to make it through it. So as already pointed out, the fact you are thinking about all of this, and realize it, means you are capable of introspection. You know something is not right, so do something about it. I will repeat it one last time, as I truly do believe that... Life is what you make it. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
