Please, there isn't a person on this forum who would stop at 3 flaws if they had to list all their flaws. I could come up with 20 easy for myself. But I also know that for many of those if I told another person, they'd tell me my perspective was off and that I wasn't as bad as I thought I was. We're all our own worst critics and only those with serious issues find no flaws in themselves (and their perceptions about themselves aren't accurate either).
So are you suggesting that everyone in the world is keenly aware of your flaws and actively avoiding you and that's why you have no friends? That's a load of BS. I'll tell you right now, most people, even if we limit it to people that have met you, aren't spending that much time thinking about you. The thing about friends is 1) most friends / acquaintances are surface level friends, the kind of people you get together to share an interest with but wouldn't tell your problems to or ask for advice 2) As CS Lewis so brilliantly said... there has to be something for the friendship to be about. You'll never make friends by bemoaning your lack of friends. 3) Deeper level friends are harder to come by for almost everyone, and those may be friendships that last years, but after they've been established you may only talk or interact once every few months and it takes a lot of effort to keep in touch.
Also the post high school / university young adult years are difficult for forming friendships because for the first time in your life you aren't institutionalized and forced to socialize with your peers who are all going through the same life experiences you are.
thanks for you reply.
you say 20 flaws....but i have 100+ flaws and many of these flaws are severe and i can only fix perhaps a dozen of my small flaws but even that will be very hard.
my perspective is not off, only because your was it does not mean its the same for me, we are not the same person.
our own worst critics? people have been telling me since i was a child what a useless loser i am. just some exemples:
"the worst thing someone can be is you"
"why bother dating? why would any woman want you?"
"you will be alone your whole life and you know it!"
yes, when people look at me they will see my flaws. i seen many people laughing at me in street. since i have as many flaws as i have this is the reason to why people are avoiding me, there is no other reason. i am not intresting enough to have as a friend/boyfriend, in fact people feel emberasment/uncomfortable when with me. why would anyone want a ugly boring loser guy as their friend/bf? heck, many are afraid of me, they think that because i am so alone, so ugly, so weird it means that i am a socipath.
true, why would anyone spend much time thinking about a random guy? problem is, i am not random, i am probaly the weirdest, most boring, biggest loser and one of the most ugly guys they have ever seen.
i dont moan about having no friends...its just in this thread where i am anymous.
