It is bullshit!! That happens to me all the time, and I feel it's because I'm afraid of conflict. Sometimes I don't know what's better: Peaceful plastic or the terrible truth.
I think for me, I'm afraid of what people think of me in general. And I keep trying to put out this false image of myself to prove that I am something. It's really dumb. It also goes hand in hand with being afraid of conflict. I want to keep myself the same, and live up to someone else's vision of who i am supposed to be rather than just being myself. Because if i do change I'll be ridiculed by it.
Well, there's a degree of fuck you should give. The thing is we as people strive to fit in, because we interact with people. If we weren't to mind anyone else but ourselves, we'd all be introverted selfish assholes. It is funny though that most people do recognize that we try to be better for other people, in some cases having more priority than being better for ourselves. I think you shouldn't be afraid of what other people think of you, but that shouldn't imply you can do anything you want. There has to be some balance between what you want and what others want. The easy way, of course, is to just be around people who either don't care what you are or around people who want you to be you - according to you.
Definitely. I think it's just been a while since I've seen the way I used to live and the people I used to hang around. Looking back at it all with a different (mature?) perspective brings some intense contrast to who I've been and who I am now, I guess.
