Lol, is it Tuesday already? I thought it was Monday still.

Why yes, I am in this post

Sudden urge?

It's more of a permanent state for me lol

it's a way of life

I do but then I realize that most of the time no one's my favorite person and that this feeling is more a signifier of personal work that needs to happen.

That's depression.

best you can hope it's being your own favourite person,

I'm my case, nope, I met myself.

You can’t hurt me with this meme. I am somebody’s favorite person. At least one other person on this earth thinks I am the best.

Yep, I realized too late that I overpromise and underdeliver. Working on setting my expectations and boundaries before moving forward with any commitments and relationships in the future.

Oof, hit me right in the social anxiety.

Heyyyy, ruining the misery porn by being realistic, how dare

no, because i'm not insecure and egotistical.

I enjoy being alone because I don't have ot listen to other people whine to me about their life. I've spend most of my life hoping one day people would stop complaining about petty stupid bullshit in their lives... and I was wrong. Being alone is dope because I don't have to listen to anyone make my ears hurt about petty bullshit.

Spend a week with my family recently and my ears hurt from the incessant non-stop bitching. Every single stupid little thing would send them off on this minutes-long rant about how unfair the world is and how persecuted they are...

The only people I tend to like are quiet folks who don't talk much, do shit, and who don't endlessly complain while doing nothing. That's like 1/100 people I meet.

That's accurate perception of reality for most people and a self preserving response. Drugs that fix this also leave me unable to do much more than drool for a few hours.

Kinda. That was me for a while, except the urge to chill alone is constant, but then I got too interesting and too good at socializing and people wouldn't leave me alone. Now I've had to deliberately ensure I'm no one's favorite person (except my wife) so I don't get bothered all the time.

Pretty sure I'm my toddler's favorite person, but that doesn't count

Oh hell yeah it does. Take those years you're their favorite. Don't take them for granted. When they're teens, they won't remember, but by the time they're adults they will figure out out again.

I got the interesting part, maybe not the socializing part. I love living in the city, seeing people every day, but sometimes I just want a cabin in the woods to hole up in and be stinky and feral.

Did you bring your coat?

The wanting to chill alone or the realizing you're no one's favorite? Because I have news.

So if you aren't wanting to hear what any of us have to say, are you just here to yell or what?

I can only talk from my experience, but when I was at my worst, I thought no one liked me, even the people closest to me. I distanced myself, and it was... let's just say, a close call.

Yeah, kids aren't really people. Their preferences don't count. Therefore you don't need to feel loved. You're safe.

Lol, no. I don't even want to be anyone's fav person except my SO's.

The people im around already chose to spend their time with me there, and visa versa. That's more then enough.

I think we're splitting hairs over definitions.
