Howdy yall, yeah ive been registered a long ass time but no posts until this. (Can't imagine how many seals have been clubbed...)

I just posted this in confessions already so you get the short version... basically out of my small circle of friends there's one dude and his girlfriend that are just the most judgmental pricks you have ever met. And he's so high-status or whatever that when he walks into the room EVERYONE is suddenly acting like him. I mean I know some of you see it in your friends and yourselves, just being socially judging, hard to explain... anyway... I'm preparing myself to make that hard decision to just bomb one big fucking bridge with everyone I know and start trying to find different people. That would also mean quitting my job where I see them (and a lot of other people i like, nice girls etc) every day.

But thing is im fucking weird... I cant help but feel I'm part of the problem because I don't quite have a great social history lets put it that way. I dont talk much at all and apparently thats some sort of crime, cause I just need someone I can chill with and not constantly have to talk about bullshit. Because I suck at talking. I've been trying to like learn how to express myself around people but I just end up not doing much. When in the right mood I find myself to have a great sense of humor and shit but thats like 10% of the time. I think you guys get the picture so I'll spare you the details but questions are welcome.

So I just need feedback from anyone that can relate to this shit. This is where you emo fags get to contribute for once. :D
 
not an 'emo fag' but the answer you are looking for is:

sometimes you have to burn your bridges so that you have no option but to explore new things: i.e. a spanish captain invading mexico could see that his men after the long journey from spain were waivering and the idea of mutiny started to arise amongst them. None of them really wanted to settle there and they had lost the will to fight. So, he burnt all of the ships that had brought them there leaving his men with no choice but to stay and fight, with the idea of returning home now out of the question they went on the invade large parts of the country.

hope the metaphor helps.:D
 
This might be a bridge worth burning. If most of your friends in the circle are at the maturity point of 'acting' like someone else with just his mere presence why do you really care? They don't have a very strong sense of self.
If you find that you can't because of beinning shy then get ready to suck up alot of shit in life.
P.S.- I'm neither a "fag" or emo but keep calling people names in your threads,,,,,,
 
It sounds like you already figured out your own answer. If it has gotten to the point where you are considering leaving your own job to get away from these people then it is indeed time to move on.
 
It's never good to burn a brigde that you may someday have to cross agian; besides it sounds to me that you would have to change to much just to get away. This can be a bad thing sense you have problems making friends.

I would start to distance myself from this prick and find more people in your click that share the same feelings as you.
 
Even if you do burn this bridge,Why leave your job because of this? Just so you dont see them anymore? Well fuck them.Its your job,And you shouldnt quit it just because of them.
Try to give yourself more credit,Even if you are weird and didnt have a glorious "social history",It doesnt mean you have to be stuck with people you dont like.Just go out and make new friends,And dont pay attention to what everybody say about you,You are what YOU think of yourself.
 
Fuck these people. I don't even know them and I dislike them.

As an aside, anyone know what "what-for" would be in Spanish?
 
Well I'd start by questioning why you hate some of your friends so much. Maybe there is some insecurity there on your part.

If you think about and decide yeah you want new friends anyway... well... go for it full throttle... volunteer, join groups, make it a priority.
 
I would suggest that if you see this guy again, in a group setting, just ignore him. Honestly, this guy probably feeds off of all the fakers and copycats, and by you not giving in, it pisses him off. Especially if you get more people to do it.

And with the work thing, don't quit. It's your job, your getting paid real money (unlike Monopoly and Life, where the money is fake. Four hours of playing, for nothing...). If he bugs you, ask for a transfer to another station/department, away from him. If that isn't possible, I guess you'll just have to tough it out. Life sucks, learn it now.
