| Anonymous Coward User ID: 926633 United States11/08/2011 08:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All my life I've kept to myself, and I'm finally realizing that there really isn't anything wrong with me. I just don't like ACTING FAKE. I see it every single day at the office, at social gatherings with family members, everyone is trying to impress each other and no one is genuine. Everyone is trying to be "interesting" or sound more sophisticated than everyone else, trying to outdo each other. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3850631 I just find it all a waste of effort and would rather keep to myself. Unfortunately with the society we live in, introverted people are absolutely detested. If you sit at your desk and work from 8-5 and only talk about work, eat by yourself every day, and don't try to fit in with the others, you are a creepy loner. What's funny is I don't really care when the others gossip about me. I just hate that I am always the first one laid off and really the only way you can make it in the world is if you schmooze with others and play the game. It all basically sucks!!!  |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1578009 United States11/08/2011 09:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Completely agree, OP. The main problem for me is finding some kind of employment that involves minimal-to-no social interaction/obligations. I never have problems with my tasks at a job (not to brag, but it's usually the opposite), but I always seem to quit after 5 or 6 months after getting too sick of working closely with others. I'm not sure where else to look for a decent paying job I'd be qualified for. Like you said, most people come off as fake, just trying to impress others. I'm the person you described in a work environment (talking mainly about work, eating alone, etc..) - not rude, but not kissing anybody's butt. I'm sure it's bad for guys, but as a female your only option is being the weird loner. Females apparently can't be "strong and silent" types. I don't care what random people say about me, but I don't want to have to deal with them unless I feel like it, lol. |

| N34444 User ID: 4355208  United Kingdom11/08/2011 09:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm exactly the same way. On a similar note, have you ever been around someone who cannot stop talking? GOD, what an irritation. I had a really hottt girlfriend once that was like that. She could spend an hour and a half discussing spaghetti sauce - and not get everything said that needs to be said about it. She would talk just to fill the air. Ugh! My brain couldn't process all the noise coming out of her mouth. I just couldn't take it. Her extreme physical beauty wasn't enough to compensate me for all the talking. Assets feed you, liabilities eat you. |

And then it's all about me Me me to them. People do suck. |

I don't care what random people say about me, but I don't want to have to deal with them unless I feel like it, lol. I so agree with you and the OP . . . females, for some reason, are just naturally expected to join in the gossip, the after-work socializing, everything. I find it all petty and tedious. I've been a SAHM for many years and really worry about what if I have to get back out into the workforce - partly because of the idea of having to work around people you don't like and who judge you because you don't fit THEIR mold and their idea of what you should be and should say and do. Oh and the "going along to get along" thing just doesn't work for me because it involves laughing at things that are not funny, listening to detailed stories that do not interest me in the least, and tolerating sometimes obnoxious behaviors just to try and fit in. No thanks. As you say, I'm not rude, never have been, and I don't per se, loathe all of mankind . . . but I find MOST people to be generally shallow, selfish, and extraordinarily petty and boring. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 4781813 United States11/08/2011 10:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I also agree and am the same. I am also a female, and loathe people who talk too much or too loudly or gossip. I CAN'T STAND IT!!! STFU already! As it's usually about themself or nothing of any importance whatsoever, or they just LOVE to hear themself talk, or simply can't tolerate meaningful silence due to insecurity or whatever the damn problem is. Small talk also has ALWAYS exhausted me, and I avoid it like the plague. Other than my close friends, I find myself becoming more of a hermit as time goes on, and I like it this way. |
| leveller User ID: 3124637  China11/08/2011 10:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Right on! I lived all over the world, my last 15 years were in England - I had to leave. England was the worst. The common people ( the majority ) just love to put others down to elevate themselves. They don't realise they are 600 feet deep. I moved to China, and hell it's got its issues but socially it's a whole world set apart. I am SO much happier here!!! The 'See Something, Say Something' campaign in the U.S. and similar stasi campaigns in U.K. encourages people to stick their noses even further, it's psychologically designed to divide and enslave. They just can't see it. If you are not a gossip and keep to yourself, you are the target - the terrorist. I pity those who can't afford to leave.
