You see the problem is I am myself. I appreciate your gesture of kindness but It simply doesn't apply to me. I have always been true to myself as much as i can be. But my family doesn't understand me, people who i thought were friends turn their backs on me over stupid mis(or lack of on their part)communication more than once. The same not fitting in misunderstanding inability to socialize right BS has lost me several jobs and the rest I quit because I don't enjoy being fucked with. I am constantly tormented by life so i have more or less given up any hope for anything to come of my life than to drag on in suffering and silence
