It's wild how differently people treat me over text chat vs voice chat. As long as I stick to text and have the time to formulate my thoughts people enjoy talking to me and I become quite popular and respected.But on vc im soft spoken, slow and my anxiety shines through. It's like night and day. I get completely ran over and disrespected. Also I'm fucking ugly so showing my face is a no go.It's just depressing to know what person I could've been.
>>85571691Have you considered edating for the rest of your life
>>85571691>Popular and respected Amongst the voices in your head I assume you mean
>>85571701No point>>85571712pettiest post of the year
>>85571728Sorry I'm just triggered from never being popular. How is it though? When you're popular. Do people constantly tag you and message you
>>85571767Yes.But now and then reality hits and I realize these people would view me like an insect were circumstances different. It's like a dark cloud over every interaction.It's starting to wear me down, as it does. I'm gonna ghost them all one of these days and be all alone again.I'm wasting my time with this. None of it is for real. Might as well speak with a chatbot.
>>85571826Holy shit, it's the quintessential discord mod guys. He's here.
>>85571833not a mod
enjoy having at least half of it. i try to be thoughtful and genuine and i have my questions ignored when i know for a fact over a hundred people read it and most could answer.
>>85571868>enjoy having at least half of it.It's more like, you're starving to death and there's this delicious hamburger dangling just outside your reach.Would've been better weren't it there.> i try to be thoughtful and genuine and i have my questions ignored when i know for a fact over a hundred people read it and most could answer.Could you give an example and maybe i could tell you how I would've gone about it.But like I said, it's empty and fake anyway if you are subhuman like me.
>>85571921what kinda places are you even talking in where you'd get so brutalized for speaking awkwardly? i can't imagine it. worst i've seen is people not being taken seriously and being talked over.i was thinking of questions i've asked in virtual seminars about the content or the course, and how i've had the same experience for example in vidya discords.
>>85571944Yeah seminars i don't know, i don't really do that kinda stuff.Vidya discords yeah.>worst i've seen is people not being taken seriously and being talked over.Well heres the thing I get a bit cheeky so people get eager to throw jabs back. Which they also do over text but I can handle it then. However if I'm letting myself getting talked over in vc then the truth is laid bare for all to see. Oh anon was a pathetic little bitch all along.Though I need shit to be a bit toxic otherwise I feel things get stale and awkward. I don't wanna be in some miserable group where people must walk on eggshells either.My head works too slowly, and I can't talk confidently. Doesn't help that I sound like I stopped halfway through puberty either.
>>85571691I'm a voicecel as well but if you have something interesting to say you will get the respect of other guys who talk to youWomen are a different story and at least in my case I'm a stone cold truecel
>>85572189Well see its mostly women who talk to me for whatever reason.You are right tho
>>85572202Well you're already lifemogging me because I have no idea where to even meet women online, everywhere is just a sausagefest with a handful of girl accounts being perpetually jestered for
>(you) multiple people in vocaroo thread>no replies, thread diesit's so bad
>>85572370You should look for games with a more mixed playerbase. Like The Sims or something, I dunno. I'd tell you the game I'm playing rn but I don't wanna dox myself.And I were just about to add, even if I were to get a baseline level of respect in vc, still the impression of me would be forever damaged simply by how awkward i come off.>>85572384It takes effort opening and listening to vocaroos, you have no idea what it contains, you have to pause the music you listen to, and you cant do it everywhere.It's an overall hassle compared to simply scrolling.
>>85572428Honestly man practice makes perfectI went for a couple months without VCing with anyone and I realized I was rusty at intonation and keeping conversations goingSome people are more natural at it than others but it really is a skill you can grind like any otherI do a weekly stream on YT and monologuing for 2+ hours for an audience really gets you good at spontaneous conversationDoesn't get me any pussy though as my audience is 100% male
>>85572455I've been considering practicing with AI, zero pressure, but I dunno how natural it would come out.In any case I guess it could do as a first step for whatever I try next.Though I don't have high hopes for me.Whenever I feel that hey, maybe I'm not so bad, there's always something which will remind me that, nope, I'm still subhuman.
