Socialization feels like a chore, every corner where there are people they're either A) already together B) complete strangers Option A means you have to get the group of people to like you by pretending to be similar to them. It is an exhausting game where you strip yourself off your own individuality until nothing is left. The moment when you're finally accepted into the group you realize that the very purpose of the act is not being fulfilled, which was to find companion. So, you end up feeling bitter until you slowly dissipate from their lives. B) Here's to the "artwork" of working through a sea of seemingly randomized individuals. Who can be just as intelligent or dumber than a brick. It is now a You problem to figure it out for yourself. By the time you figure it out, 99% of the time you regret the time you spent learning about somebody that was putting up an act anyway. Why is it such a chore?Navigating through the depths of the human ocean is like purposefully banging your head against a nail on the wall to make it fit into an uneven hole and by the time that the nail ruins the hole further you have already killed yourself by force trying to avoid the unavoidable.

>>84681058if hylics didn't make up the majority, socializing would be easier.
>>84681058>Option AToo many hollow skulls dedicate their lives to option A. I can't do it. Surrendering my will to anyone, even a peergroup, feels impossible.I am terrible at pretending I'm someone I'm not, I enjoy my own life and I don't seek approval from insecure strangers about what I do. It feels so bizarre to me that option A is so popular.
>>84681130And by a large margin it is more popular. It stems from the belief that nothing is good by itself. That a sunset has to be watched for it to be real, that the beauty of shallow waters running deep is only real when it is appreciated by somebody photographing it. It's not the sunset that's hollow, it is us for thinking that the sunset isn't enough by itself. People will photograph it, make sure to share it with a million or more strangers that they'll never meet in real life and call it a day. The inability to enjoy the things that life gives you without trying to get validation for it. It is funny because the only validation is the act itself. People are simply trying to scratch an itch within themselves. A baby cries out for attention and care all the time, those cries never truly disappear into adulthood they simply change form
>>84681058I have dropped out of socialization altogether the moment I realized most of the girls I like are all shallow and impossible to socialize with. Don't really have any energy to talk to dudes regardless of how cool they may seem, especially if there's a good chance they don't struggle with dating like I do.
