going back in my shell


Question Posted Tuesday February 13 2007, 8:09 pm

Well I have unique friends and we're totally different which is why I like them because if someone is interested in the same things I do then I feel like there's a competition to like what ever it is more and I start to hate them just for liking it. I don't know why, it's just hard for me to open up to people because i've had a really hard life. Now it's down to three friends but resently I found out that they like this thing that I really like and now I'm like having a hating feeling towards them and I know it's not right but I can't stop it..

Hey, I pride myself on being a unique individual and daring to be different from the crowd, but I don't allow it to dictate my friendships.

You have to come to terms with the fact that you are ALWAYS going to have things in common with others, as well as common interests.

If you don't get over this issue, you will end up with no friends. You don't want to live that way.

Try not to think about it so much. When your friends are speaking of the things that you really like, just listen but you don't have to say anything unless they ask you a question.

Another idea is that you could just change the subject.

Another thing is that you could actually talk to your friends about your problem. If they really are your friends, then they would understand. Maybe you guys could come to an agreement. :D
