Why do people even talk to me.
I'm such a cringy person, oh my God.
Don't ever let my mind wander, I'm going into the past and seeing my past mistakes. Everything that I've ever done that I've tried to forget.
Why be friends with me. Oh my God I'm having a mental break down. WHY AM I SO CRINGY GOD.

You have social skills. I have literally nothing and I'm the only person who obsesses over certain things. And I still read books about talking animals like everyone else reads these bland young adult fictions that I'm supposed to like but I loathe those instead
It could always be worse, you could be me.

And I still read books about talking animals like everyone else reads these bland young adult fictions that I'm supposed to like but I loathe instead It could always be worse, you could be me. The only social skills I have are toward my friends, honestly. People come up to me and ask to be my friend, I never start the friendship. I'm even more awkward in real life than I am online.
And don't even get me started on my obsessions. If you've seen my posts, you know that I never shut up about things that I obsess over on the forums. I'm even more obnoxious in the real life.
I hate human-based books. Talking animals only catch my fascination and interest. Plenty of people give me weird looks, and many have called me a furry for reading them.
We're the same person in that respect, friendo. Don't beat yourself down, for we're both human wrecks.

We're the same person in that respect, friendo. Don't beat yourself down, for we're both human wrecks.For me, I'm extremely lonely being the only opera fan. I try to get my friends to at least appreciate it but they're usually like "oh you're spewing nonsense again" it's at the point where I talk to myself or to the opera characters themselves about it to not feel as lonely. And when I do see other potential opera fans, I freak out and am immediately friends with them...only for them to go "I never cared for it that much". I'm much worse with it in that way

I mean I don't know if I can really do much for you because feelings like this don't tend to go away with logic but
everyone does cringey (okay apparently neither cringy nor cringey is an acceptable word according to my computer) things and has those weird things about them that make them think "why would anyone talk to me; no one else is like this"
and sometimes those things will get in the way, but that doesn't make you worth any less or anything
it's tough, maybe even impossible, to really get around wondering why anyone would talk to you knowing certain things…but they do, and that's important
some of them won't, but then there are some people who won't talk to those people, either
you've got a spotlight on yourself that you don't have on anyone else, but I only have it on me…any one person only has it on themselves, and that makes it easy to wonder why anyone would put up with you, but everyone has something that they wish would stop being true about themselves, most people multiple
and I hope that you can feel better about yourself soon

Then we are different in that regard.
I'm sorry that that has happened frequently. Hopefully someone will actually share your obsessions. I can kind of relate, what with my very childish dinosaur obsession. People who don't respect your love for a specific subject honestly don't deserve your friendship. The point of friendship is to respect and stay loyal to each other, not to abandon each other for silly differences.

I understand what you're saying, though. There are those random moments when you start remembering and they can take a great toll on your self-esteem, and this was kind of one of those moments. The whole "I'm never going outside and socializing again" sort of deal that cripples my confidence. Your words definitely helped me.
