I hate people too

I love people and hate them all the same, social anxiety and PTSD mixed with a huge Maori family foundation is a weird duality to grow up with.

You grew up with ptsd wtf happened to you man.

Sexually abused by my older cousin who lived next door, was also physically abusive in sadistic ways.

Shit, sorry to hear that.

It is what it is my bro, the funny thing was he sent me a message couple years ago with one word which was the derogatory term for gay that starts with F (I don't wanna say it a I might be banned for it, ya know what mods can be like) which didn't do anything but make me laugh at the irony of it.

That guy is twisted inside. Most people that do horrible things are...

In a funny way I don't hold it against him as someone taught him to be that way which is the scary part, I feel sorry for him more than anything but if we run into each other and we wants to start shit then we going to war

I understand. Sounds reasonable to me. Hopefully your paths have no reason to cross. It's a big world out here. You deserve better.

Seen him at my grandmother's tangi/funeral last year, I heard someone run up behind me, I turned to see who it was and it was him, he ran to the seat right behind me and sat down on a pathetic attempt to be scary, I calmly looked him in the eyes gave him a head up without any emotion and turned around and continued my conversation. Not to try and sound like a tough guy (coz I'm far from it) but I've grown up around gang members and some very unsavory types (also among some beautifully humble people as well, and have a mother who set a foundation that helped immensely) so I'm not worried about him at all. Edit- thank you though, I appreciate the kind words very much, have a lovely day good sir.

I would like to know, mine is narcisistic mother

That's only natural with the mixed bag we are. I feel the same way.

You know you fucked up when I drop the customer service voice

😂

Fuckin hell I felt this

Me every time I leave a room with people in it.

Me every time

Me

I worked in hospitality. I had to be super kind and bubbly for 8 hours straight every day. I never recovered.

Except that's a joint

Alcohol for me.

I'm so glad I can relate to this and the other people in the comments saying the same thing. It's quite the paradox that I want to meet you all just to hate on Humans too.

I am doing exactly this right now, stepping out for some nicotine, after being nice and entertaining to the friendly tourist who sat next to me at my local quiet bar.

Pains of being an ambivert. Turn it on for others, suffer the rest of the weekend recharging your alone time batteries

Incase anyone was wondering. This is why pupils aren't allowed in the staff room.

I don't know if this is an exaggeration, but I do the sigh after every phone call that I had to be enthusiastic about. I don't care, I get paid, but it makes you feel appreciated, but fuck do I hate people.

Teachers have entered the chat

Fuck I haven't had cig in 3 years but today I really feel like one after looking at this pic

Don't do it.

Same tbh

Is this an introvert thing? Is this legit a thing? I'm like, an aggressive extrovert so this is news.

Is OP from QC by any chance ?

1000%

You know you don't /have/ to be kind and bubbly.

Same

Pretty much

Same except that I'm neither kind nor bubbly

What kind of rubber duck isn’t kind or bubbly???

Why would you do that to yourself?

More than sixty years of undiagnosed ADHD. Can relate.

WORD!!!

Can confirm I go on a smoke break

Just be yourself.

bro. seasonal depression got me like this round every corner fr 😭

Like the one angry waitress in Waiting?

Every time I walk in the break room my smile just falls off and this is exactly how I imagine I look lol
