so horrifically in touch with everything I’m bad at, every way I just do not fit what other people expect

omori-miserable

    Highly, highly relate. It feels like I’m always searching to find someone who feels this way. Like in the context of social events, I will always be the one person at the event trying to find the other person (or people) who are also looking as lost as myself. But I truly never can

    This thought has been there as early as elementary school basketball tryouts and persisted throughout the entirety of my pathetic existence

      !!! so much this. I definitely try to find the other leftover weirdos to befriend, and it is not necessarily a reliable strategy, but it’s better than hanging with the normies

      it’s why I’ll probably never entirely give up cigarettes – they’re just too useful as a social crutch, which I desperately need

          do not recommend, I’m a genuine freak who can take them or leave them, I’ve fucked around with them for decades but have never been a daily smoker, which is exceedingly rare. they ruin most people’s lives.

          weed is just as good a crutch and less horrifically harmful

        basically the only way I have made friends in my life is spotting the other weirdos and being like hiiii i’m weird too let’s be friends :)

        and it’s worked so far lol
