Arguing with strangers on the internet.
21 year old, for me it’s the self pity fest of depression and self hatred, constant “I want clingy people” while only saying what they hate about themselves, and it’s like I don’t know many people who have the energy to deal with that much negativity. Maybe it’s just me but negativity drains me. I understand going through a bad time, but the people I’m referring to are those who turn it into a pity party of “woe is me” and think certain things will fix their lives.
“We’re meeting up at 9pm!”
Nope. I would have met you at 8pm, but starting the night at 9pm is way too late. I’m already stoned and on the couch, watching Netflix, and happily nodding off.
Arguing about taste in music – or worse, the constant need to define “wHo yOU rEaLlY aRe” based on the music you listen to.
It was all fun back in school being totally-into-that-very-specific-niche-you-probably-never-heard-of-anyway to show how very unlike you are to anyone else, except your closest peers, without ever admitting there are other good genres as well.
Today… hell, whatever floats your boat. If it sounds good to you, it’s good music, never mind the genre or artist.
Relationship games. Bitch you won’t compromise on dinner plans? Then starve. You want me to guess what the problem is? Stay mad. Silent treatment? Peace out I’m going to play a game online, you can let me know when you’re ready to act your age.
Communicate. We are adults. If you have a problem, let’s work through it. I have zero tolerance for that high school bullshit. I love my SO, but that nonsense will not fly in my house.
