Boring

posted February 28th, 2015 at 9:05 PM

I feel like I am so mediocre at everything. My life is mediocre and I am not at all interesting to anyone. I'm really shy but I don't understand why I have to be some loud ass attention seeker just to be noticed. Why do I have to be super into intellectual conversation just to interest someone. I hate big long debates but also hate small talk. Can't there be some chill middle ground? Why are people so judgey too I mean... It's annoying. I know I shouldn't care but it bothers me. This city is kind of lame too. It feels like a big popularity contest. This pretentious place gives me hard core anxiety. So I guess my confession is that I'm a boring ass person but wished someone was interested in me and that this city sucks balls IMHO. Yeah, I'm lame as fuck. Gunna go finish cooking kd and watch some porn.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series is a personal fave, so the faithful Paranoid Android imitation is highly appreciated.

You channeled Marvin perfectly.

First World Problems, indeed.

Yikes

geeknomad:

Apparently, Douglas Adams loved A.A.Milne (even some stylistic similarities). Couldn't you hear Marvin speaking this Eeyore line: "Thanks for noticing me"?

@Martin

Everything is derivative, so perhaps you are right, and he was talking out of Milne's ass. No pun intended, of course.

I was actually disappointed that it finished with kd and porn, and not going to dunk one's head in a bucket of water...

Hmm, that conjures visions of Jim Carrey, but not in a nice way (if such exists).
Have a good night!

ehh

I understand how you feel, because we all feel like that sometimes (inadequate, invisible, etc). However, if you feel like this ALL the time, then I think you need to work on being a more positive person. And for god sakes, eat something healthier than KD. When you respect your body, it helps you feel more positive and happier with yourself.

You don't have to be popular

unless you want the hot chicks who are only interested in the alpha type men...?

Are you fine with just an average type girl?

Just figure yourself out (values, goals, fave hobbies) and then find a chick who shares them.
You can do that on dating sites or by going to activities or events that are connected to your hobbies.

Hell even Craigslist can work, but only if you write a really thorough ad.
I said "thorough" not "popular".
The problem with most guys' ads on Craigslist is that they say very little about themselves (like only a sentence or 2).
Women want to feel like they really know a guy before meeting him, so the more info a guy puts in his ad, the better his chances of finding a compatible chick.

Also, negativity is a turn off.
Don't believe me? Try this, for a week: totally do a 180 and be positive and friendly and enthusiastic (rather than seeing the city & everyone as shit). Smile at people. Talk with anyone who talks with you or seems open to talking.
Attitude is everything.

I see self-described "mediocre" people date and mate all the time, all around me. You're definitely not alone. Own it, find joy in your day-to-day, and you'll be just fine. The problem with today's "hot or not" world is that it's pumped steroids into the dating "market", giving us the impression that we're not deserving of love unless we're #1. I've fallen prey to that thinking myself.
