I’m probably just an asshole nobody wants to talk to, but I can hardly even get a reply text from anyone anymore. A couple people have told me that they are just feeling burnt out/depressed/etc and don’t have even enough energy to answer a message anymore. But I’ve also had some long time friends just entirely ghost me in the last year as well with no explanation. It feels like I’m surrounded by NPCs. I’ve basically just stopped reaching out to anyone at this point. Outside of my work, literally the only people I talk to are my parents, sister, and my girlfriend. Everyone else seems dead inside. I used to have at least 10 people who I could call on a moments notice and all of those people are gone.
don’t agree man. by that definition my dog is more human than. she is alive.
Misantropists be like: “Why does every human hate me for my views?”
Fucking obviously…
Wonder how much longer till you realize a 5 minute conservation with someone who’s only interacting with you as part of their job, isn’t enough to truly know the depths of their personality?
What is so special about you that requires everyone’s effort to cultivate superficial differences?
Even from this short exchange, I can assure you if it was face to face I would be monotone and put zero effort into the conversation. Not because I’m a fucking NPC, but because I want to stop interacting with you immediately, but for one reason or another can’t tell you to just fuck off.
Does it make sense now?
Do you understand what the common factor is when you and people like you constantly complain about “NPCs”?
Do you get that it’s just people obligated to interact with you and desperate for it to be over?
yeah well if you put zero effort in, why should i give you any effort?
taking the LCD approach means you are NPC. you dont’ want to put effort into your interactions so be it. I do.
my baristas and such thank me for being so kind and treating them like people instead of NPCs. it’s nice. try it sometime.
