OpenGL Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Well, congratulations to me. I have now hit a new social low. It's saturday night, I have no plans on going out tonight, and I have not left my apartment since I came home from work on friday. Had a few "plans" but all of them fell through as my social network is litterally hanging by a thread, looking to break any day now (it might have finally broke this weekend). After this weekend is completed, I will be one step closer to the life of George Sodini. I think this is cause for celebration, don't you guys think? I have a bottle of Bacardi Rasp in the freezer, I think I might take a few shots and reply to some threads on LS.
kizik Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Hi OpenGL, it's fine. You don't need to have plans with friends in order to be cool, etc. I spend most of my time right here, in this apt. watching documentaries from Netflix and posting on LS, when I can. I love hanging out with people but they never call ME, it's always me calling THEM, and I got sick of it. Ya dig? It's lame having to do all the work, all the time. I say, break out that Bacardi Raspberry and have a couple shots. Don't get drunk - that'll just depress you. ENJOY this alone time. Because at some point in the future, you'll have an alcoholic husband (or wife) and two little snot-nosed, bratty cretins running around your kitchen. Be Here Now.

It's not fine sitting in your apartment all weekend without any social interaction. We are both losers, the difference is I admit it and you don't. I doubt I'll have an alcoholic husband since I am not gay and gay marriage is illegal in CA. If I had an alcoholic wife that wouldn't be ideal but it would be a huge improvement from where I am right now.
kizik Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 We are both losers, the difference is I admit it and you don't. I retract my post. You're by yourself this weekend because your personality leaves much to be desired.
Green Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 when I got my haircut on friday the hairdresser asked me what my plans were for the weekend. I told her I had none

Honestly if you want to go out so much, no one's stopping you but yourself. Even movie stars sometimes stay home on weekends. Now if you stay home all the time, that's a different story.
Cora Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I don't think staying in on the weekend makes you a loser. I do it quite often, although I enjoy the peace and quiet by myself. I do go out on occasion, but I'm not a very social person lol. Sometimes it's just nice staying in you know?
Author OpenGL Posted September 6, 2009 Author Posted September 6, 2009 You're by yourself this weekend because your personality leaves much to be desired. Disagree. The fustration that I display online here is a result of not going out all weekend with any friends. If I had actually gone out with friends this weekend I'd be in a much better mood and have a much better attitude.

bluewolf17 Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I'm home all alone on a Saturday night. I did this last Saturday too. In fact, I love it. I had plans tonight and bailed. My couch called me to finish my book, watch a movie and have some wine. Sounds awesome to me. Now if you are spending too much time alone, then you need to get your a@@ in gear and get out there. It's not too hard. Join a group, take lessons, enroll in a class. There is oppurtunity out there.
Green Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I'm sorry. the woman cutting my hair seemed to feel sorry for me too so I said maybe i would got to a cook out. It was a lie. Truth is I don't care if I'm on my couch in my underpants watching tv and surfing the net... Im a laid back guy. Doing stuff sux. but if you want to go do stuff then just do it. I used to go out to night clubs by myself when i was in the mood. I'd just sit back and people watch

I'd just sit back and people watch Green I don't know whether I should feel sorry for you or not... but as long as you're comfortable with yourself and what you do or not do, then that's all that matters.
kizik Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 If I were Green, your pity wouldn't matter. I'd be happy doing what I wanted to do. Which is laying on my couch in my underwear watching TV and surfing the net, apparently. Moral of the story is to do whatever you want and to not let "appearances" run your life.
Isolde Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I won't feel sorry for anyone that doesn't make an attempt to find some things they enjoy doing alone. Example, cooking a new dish, walking in a park, working in a cafe. You are just wallowing in your self pity. Life isn't about having fun every single moment, its also about those little lulls, which everyone has, deal with it. If this has been going on for a long time, then yes that is something that should be changed. But whining and indulging in Sodini comparisons is not part of the process to change it.

I'm actualy a crappy writer, but you comunicated the theme of what I was trying to get across. Do what you do, and who cares what other people think. So open GL who cares what people would think, if you don't leave ur place then it was because you wanted

So open GL who cares what people would think, if you don't leave ur place then it was because you wanted No, I WANTED to leave my place and hang out, just couldn't. I'd say the vast majority of people who never go out don't do it by choice.
kizik Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Here's the last thing I'll say on the subject, GL, because you seem hell-bent on being verbally unhappy and arguing with people. Which is understandable, as it can be quite fun, if done tactfully. See my sig. One can go do things alone. If you're so uncomfortable in your own skin that you can't be satisfied embracing the world at large on your own, then that's the real problem. Why do people have such a hard time going to the movies alone, for instance? I guess I used to but it was a taboo I quickly overcame. (Perhaps it was the love of the cinema that did it.) Going back to another thread I wrote in today, being bored is the result of being boring. (Oh yeah, some other poster said they found a post in which I said "I'm bored." Called me out, they did!) But really, there are always fun things to do. Get back to me when you find out what those are, I too could use the help. Look, I'm single and don't have a lot of friends (clearly because as you said, I'm a loser in denial). I too wish I was partying it up like a crazy man. But that's why God made Netflix, and PBR, and marijuana. Good luck, and good night. -k

I'm reasonabily attractive so I shouldnt have any problems but psycologically I just don't like the idea of going out by myself. Which is hypocritical since in the other thread I told Vixen she should go out by herself, lol.
V.Vixen Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 lol, why don't you just go out with your "friends" that you met at the bar? I go out alone all the time... are you a fattie? hypocrite, much?

V.Vixen Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 All jokes aside, I really do go out by myself and hang out a lot. I don't see why you can't.
