(click to show/hide)Man, this whole fucking time I've been here (and by extension, my life in general), I can't shake the feeling that people merely put up with me. What I mean by this is: nobody starts conversations with me, nobody asks me questions, nobody asks me to do anything, etc. and I have no idea why. I mean, I try to be friendly and make everyone feel welcome, but for some reason I never see that reciprocated in ANY environment I'm in. Is there something about me that just drives other people away? Do I not have charisma or something? I'm really at a loss.
I know that feeling more than I can say, but based on experience, it's not really something you should worry about too much. Folks rarely approach me for anything unless I join a mapping competition or a duel tournament, and I'm perfectly okay with that. I've come up with a sort of rule or method or whatever you wanna call it: I don't actively approach others in an attempt to elicit approval, but I'm always around and willing to listen if folks approach me. There's only around 2 people that I regularly carry out private, albeit brief, conversations with.I can't say I've ever had a problem with you, but at the same time, I don't really know you well either. On a similar note to Caprice's sentiment, I like having folks like that hanging around here. Even though I don't know you well, others seem to like your company, so I'm not about to throw rocks at you or anything.
it's good to know that we've all got each other's backs here.
