A small rant on the lack of K-Pop fans in North Carolina (that I know of)
Ok, so I live in a small city. I get that. All I am asking for is someone, ANYONE, (other than my niece) who likes what I like. At my age it is really hard to find others who will have an open enough mind to give my interests a chance, and living where I do it seems like I am all alone. I know that K-Pop is an acquired taste, along with J-Rock and Anime. Damn it though, it gets so frustrating to want to talk about this stuff and not to have anyone to do it with. I have two friends on Lj, both related to me, and one is not into my scene at all (totally not her fault, you like what you like). They tell me it should be easier to make friends on here, and I guess it should. I just can't for some reason, I have tried. So I am left feeling like I have no one to talk to about this stuff.
I want to talk about the drama I just watched or the new MV I just saw, I want to hear opinions on this new bit of info or this new blog post. I want to be able to name a person or song and someone else say "yeah, I know who you mean". I feel like I am so isolated sometimes. No one cares here where I live, and it sucks.
I guess I am just whining, but damn it I am sick of feeling like I am the only one. I know that it is a small fandom compared to others but it still sucks to feel like a loner. I need a life, I know. I am at the age where I can do as I please, go where I want, buy what I want. Yet what good is that without a friend to share it with?
I know I should just suck it up, but it gets hard at times to just ignore that fact that I am alone 90% of the time, at last as far as my intrests go.
and this in no way reflects on spikesvampbaby or
