so horrifically in touch with everything I'm bad at, every way I just do not fit what other people expect

omori-miserable

tell me you know that feel, please

    I will always be the one person at the event trying to find the other person (or people) who are also looking as lost as myself

    !!! so much this. I definitely try to find the other leftover weirdos to befriend, and it is not necessarily a reliable strategy, but it's better than hanging with the normies

    it's why I'll probably never entirely give up cigarettes – they're just too useful as a social crutch, which I desperately need

      basically the only way I have made friends in my life is spotting the other weirdos and being like hiiii i'm weird too let's be friends :)

      and it's worked so far lol

        do not recommend, I'm a genuine freak who can take them or leave them, I've fucked around with them for decades but have never been a daily smoker, which is exceedingly rare. they ruin most people's lives.

        weed is just as good a crutch and less horrifically harmful
