eerie_reverie Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 It's isolation and an inability to communicate with anybody in real life who is my age on what I would consider to be a significant level. Now, that bitterness may have some negative side effects and automatic behaviors/thoughts that my eventual skinny, healthy self is going to have to begrudgingly tackle. I think you're going to be in for a rude awakening. The above is the human condition.
Author Yer_Blues Posted December 9, 2010 Author Posted December 9, 2010 I think you're going to be in for a rude awakening. The above is the human condition. I understand you can never completely align your perspective with somebody else or come to a complete understanding of somebody, but intimacy is a great thing. I have seen people with the type of intimacy where you can just observe the nonverbal communication they use if you're careful, where the thoughts are so aligned that they barely have to talk. I love getting closer to people that I genuinely like. It's just that I don't really have the ability to get close to very many people. The people I am real close to are just more less deep in their thoughts than I am. They don't really want to have the kind of conversations that interest me. I don't think many 19 year olds have spent as much time alone as I have, and I think isolation leads to more internal questioning and such. Anxiety makes me overthink and question too much as well.
