"Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble · But I've got a war in my mind..."

My favorite thing in the world is researching and looking for things. I love investigating, and poking around places I probably have no business looking. I have quite a few people who like to give up information to me without me ever asking. Bless these random messengers. They always seem to show up when I most need them ( Read more... )

'Niceties like this are offensive.'

This is the truth. I know so many people that only exist on this level as friends or even loved ones. I don't know how people can handle this kind of surface bullshit, its always made me crazy. EG I think I know people who have no real true friends because there is no one who would 1.Confide in them or 2. Listen, truly listen if they did.

Make yourself a pink sparkly bunny :3

'It angers me as it is that they feel that my situation in life is less than their own, thus you feel bad for me.'

I have always said this about pity. Its one thing to pity a wounded animal. Its another to pity another person. Its shameful, and its only reflective of our own need to feel superior or 'better'. It's a totally selfish feeling because and it doesn't help anyone.

I love that I'm reading this on LJ.

That being said, hey man, I give a shit about you and stuff. I am just not great at putting myself out there, so I don't always reach out like I should. But I'd love to hang sometime and do the crafty introverted things... or go out and do the social extroverted things (well, until I get overwhelmed...lulz).

I agree with a lot of what you said here. I hate to be pitied as well. I do feel like I get some of where you're coming from. Like, I can relate. It's been a weird time for me too. So here's a question- Were you manic when you tossed your trinkets? I do that sometimes then kick myself when I level out, because I get rid of shit that I should have held on to.

Yeah. When I get in bad spaces I end up throwing a lot of things away. Usually because they remind me of certain events that in reality I'd like to throw away(the event or the emotions surrounding the event) even if they really have nothing to do with it. IF THAT MAKES SENSE.

That makes total sense. I do it too. For me it's like a cleanse, but it's not really clearing the right things most of the time. I have gotten rid of trigger objects in the past and it helped a heap, but usually the thing is not the issue as much as the thought attached to the thing. But, I convince myself that tossing the thing will make it better.
