I'm noticing patterns that threads are generally being about how low-life today's society is.
I meet so many great people. My thoughts about it are a little different. I have good times all the time.I look forward to meeting lots of great people all the time.
Unfortunately there are lots of not so great people. I don't tolerate insecure and emotionally sensitive people. If someone is in a bad relationship and wants to make it work, when half the time the relationship is crap and its based on emotional insecurity, I do exactly what everyone else is afraid to do. I tell them... "The relationship is garbage; you plainly describe it as that. Find someone else and get over your emotional insecurity or else you'll be stuck with this terrible relationship forever. Make it work? Get help."
Haha, I'm like that sometimes, especially when it deals with insecurity. I notice that everyone wants everyone else's reality adjusted for their insecurity. Unfortunately, when they bump into me, they realize my reality is mine and I'm not changing it because some person has terrible coping skills.
Emotions seem to be out of control. I notice they bounce from end to the other in seconds over little things. Rarely things can be discussed without someone being offended.
Good thing I don't really care much if someone gets offended. Rarely people do because when I say something most people wouldn't say, I don't have this "shield of protection" in case they get offended. I notice that other people get "ready" in case they get offended. I don't even flinch when I say things so that the other knows that even if they get offended, I won't care so don't waste your time creating a negative environment (getting offended is considered a negative emotion) when there is a positive environment. It might sound like I'm the one trying to ruin the positive environment, but really I'm not because I'm being sincere and not trying to cater to everyone's little fantasy world to protect them from getting hurt.
When I say the truth when it needs to be said, it's normally not even negative and mostly just neutral but because of habits people picked up, they treat neutral comments as negative ones and now those who make neutral comments put a safeguard up just in case.
Yes, this is also a rant about how sadly our society is being run. I think things like Facebook, Online Dating, MySpace and so on is allowing people NOT to deal with emotions properly because you're suppose to go up and get the feeling of being nervous when asking a girl out. Also, to have challenges meeting people. Or you're suppose to go through a decent amount of work if you want to find someone important and learn to deal with it if you don't. Those are things that happen in life which are good because they're experiences. Without them, life would be dull. Most people will grow up and be like... "so yeah this girl, oh wait I have her on Facebook. I'll show you pictures and the post I made on her wall like 10 years ago." The fact that you have to work a little harder to find someone (i.e. look in phone books, ask old friends, etc...) shows the value of this person. Now, people just post on the wall and say "What's up?" out of nowhere, like old High School friends. Like please, we aren't friends and we are only 24. No need for reunions already.
To sum it up... people need to stop be babies and grow up (emotionally). Most people think growing up (maturely and emotionally) comes by default because you're getting older. I think that's wrong and I think it comes through life experiences. Things like Facebook are robbing a lot of people from those experiences.
