i feel like every other person has something inherently interesting about them that others always latch onto, except me. one guy i know is a distant relative of our previous president, and everyone always brings that up and obviously find him interesting for it. this fact about him would give him an identity in the eyes of others, even if he was the most boring person in the world otherwise. some women i know whom everyone always mentions are from a minority culture in my country and that obviously makes them interesting in the eyes of others, people always talk about these girls as "the girl from x". they have a "free" interesting identity that makes them interesting, and it came with birth, that's what i mean by "free".i'm completely average, born from a poor family (but not that poor that we could not eat), i'm not born from an interesting country or region and don't have a single interesting identifier about me and that's why nobody knows about me. i guess i enjoy art/drawing, and video games, but those things are more mundane and nerdy, and not something that can make you attractive or at least interesting, such as "the girl from russia", or "the guy who grew up in an ultra religious family". i don't have a single interesting identifier like that, and everyone else seems to have one. i know this is a pretty childish thing to be sad about, but it seems like you need a simple identifier like this, which you were born with most of the time, for people to truly be interested in you and find you interesting.i just find that others talk about people like this ( people who have an interesing identity that they were essentially born with) in a different way, they are way more inherently interested and invested in a person if they are like that it feels like.
does anyone else feel like this or am i just mentally ill
>>34162627>or am i just mentally illHonestly? Yeah. Most people are not intrinsically interesting. If you want to be interesting, do something about it.
>>34162640i have tried to, but i guess i'm too inherently boring (too much of a homebody, i have tried but i just don't enjoy going out very much even if i had a phase when i tried many things and tried going out more often, didn't enjoy any of it).but i yeah i also kinda disagree with the first point, it does seem like most people are intrinsically interesting. everyone else has that some thing that gives them an identifier, "girl from x", "guy who is y", it's always something one is born with though.
>>34162598I don't have an intrinsic thing People do yhink it's cool I've crossed the US in a car by myself. Make your "thing" yourself.
>>34162804i see, you make a good point and that is a cool thing. i guess i'm just insecure that i don't have a lot of life experience, but when i have tried to essentially go outside more, i never really enjoy it. i only like solitary nerdy inside hobbies and i don't talk to people about them really because talking about myself irl always feels awkward ngl. the only thing i enjoy outside is taking long walks in forests and exploring the wild woods, but that's not really considered cool since it's not camping, but rather just walking around, and i'm not particularly interested in actual camping.
