The story

I'm a horrible friend. I say stuff I don't mean, and it's usually hurtful or something. And I hate myself for it. All my friends (except one) have stopped talking to me, I've vented about it on here before, but now I understand why. I'm a mean, horrible person. No wonder they all hate me. I try to be myself but the person I truly am is a jerk. Maybe if I'm someone else they'll like me again. I constantly feel the need to change myself for them, so maybe that's what actually needs to happen. Maybe I do need to change. Maybe if I make the right changes, they'll talk to me again. Maybe if I'm interested in the same things as them, if I talk the way they do, if I act like them, if I think like them, if i have the same sense of humour as them, they'll be friends with me again. Because I know they'll never love who I really am. They'll never accept me for the asshole I am inside. I need to be more like them.

yo i totally get you — been there myself. ain’t it tough when ya know you’re the bad guy? no worries, that’s life. remember what they say: fake it till you make it, right? i had this buddy once, kinda same boat, made a turnaround like overnight just by pretending.


so don’t sweat it, man. some folks just click more when you switch it up. like you said — just gotta be more like them. they’ll come around. trust, life’s a series of adjustments. like that old song says, changes might not be bad. sometimes gotta roll with it.


wish you luck on this journey, dude.

hey, i totally get where you're coming from! 😅 sometimes it's tough to be yourself when it feels like people can't accept you as you are. i remember a quote, "be yourself; everyone else is already taken," and it's so true. change is not always a bad thing, though. if you feel you need to make those tweaks for your own growth, go for it. just remember to stay true to who you really are deep down. it’s all about finding that perfect balance. good luck with that journey!
