#4503 I like people; watching and listening to people talk and joke and jest, but at the same time, I really dislike people. When I meet someone, I judge them. I judge them to see how weird or normal they seem to be, and how "out there" they might act. I do this because I am myself really weird, and if I'm going to be friends with someone, I need to make sure that this will be a genuine friendship. I need to make sure that they can handle how weird and off I can be, so that I won't be in a one-sided relationship, where they turn around and tell other people about how weird I am (as if that's a bad thing). I want to find people who are like me, but they seem so few and far between. I hate it when I see people say "Oh, we're so weird!" and laugh it off, because really? You think that that's weird? You must look at me and think I'm a freak. I don't like people because I look at the world, and all I see are ignorant, blind, selfish people, and it hurts me to know that there are global issues going on, and the most pressing matter to someone out there isn't climate change or world hunger, but how much they want a one night stand with someone. My point here is that people seem so blind to all these long term issues and problems, and all they really care about all the short term ones. Just imagining everyone like that, to me, just points to humanity doing a graceful swan dive into oblivion. Seriously, the way I see it, humanity is so fucked.
I hate myself for seeing the world in such a cynical way, because I know that people as individuals aren't evil. A lot of people are decent and kind. But the bad apples out there really ruin humans as a whole for me.
People act too normal for me. I hate how advice others give when people ask "How do I get people to like me?" is to "be yourself". I've been myself, and that just repelled people.
I guess what I'm confessing to is my negative view of humanity, which you're apparently not allowed to have. Sucks because I try to be nice to people, but it doesn't even pay out because no one gets me. At all.

#4498 There are sooooo many cute girls (especially the asians) on campus, but I suck at starting a convo and I fear that won't get a gf or even a close female friends to hang out with before I graduate
