Hello, another random thought that I don’t know why I post on a fitness site.So I’m sitting here feeling lonely per usual and I decided that I’m an elitist of sorts. It’s not like people don’t try to know me, it’s that I’ll dream up a reason why we wouldn’t make good friends so why try? I mean, beyond the crippling social anxiety stuff which is a huge part in it too. I’m just like, we have nothing in common so whyyyy?
I’m just kind of an *kitten*. Like how hard is it to acknowledge people’s existence and throw on a fake smile? A simple hello? Apparently too hard for me.
I’m just like.. zoom zoom zoom, task.... task.. oh no a person, avoid... cool now they know I’m avoiding them.... oh well... they wouldn’t like me anyway because I’m boring and they probably talk about taxes or sports or whatever functional adults talk about....zoom....task, task.... wow I’m bored..... looks at deserted message board for millionth time that has one new comment about how some random person picked up radishes from the store....riveting! .....oh no, someone said hi to me irl... zoom!... thank gawd I got out of there!
Idk and even when I haven’t run away from a conversation I just have nothing to talk about. What is there really to relate to about me? I’m a cat lady that’s completely lost to my own mind and doesn’t do anything but theatrical makeup and listens to trash music. 🤷🏻♀️ I’m just at a loss of what to talk about with people who have whole lives they live.
Like do they want me to overshare about sad things because I’ve got stories for days on that. Do they want to hear about my cat children?🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ Let’s talk about astrology and tarot cards and my favorite superstitions bc I’m nuts. 😅7 -

I’m just a really difficult person to deal with not in a confrontational way but a why won’t she talk to me way. I think it psychologically messes with people because they can fill in the blanks with their own insecurities. I just need a shirt that says, “It’s not about you, I just can’t” OR I just stop being weird. 🤷🏻♀️ That would be easier for all.

When you say "trash music" is that a genre or just music you think others will think is *kitten*?
People generally dislike the things I listen to and most of it isn’t really meant to be listened to with company anyway.
Like nobody I know likes Lana Del Rey (except one girl but we don’t hang out) but sometimes you gotta tap into your depressed sugar baby’s slow decent into madness because your daddy issues are toxic but now it’s kinda romantic vibes.
Ashniko for more of an aggressive brat mania sexaholic vibes.
Halsey for self aware ‘I’m not living my life right’ and my exs sucked vibes.
Kehlani is SEX full stop.
Jazmin Bean for stalker/murderer gore goth vibes.
Mariah Carey in general but also specifically the butterfly album.
I listen to many things though. I just gravitate most often to like.... slow stuff. Though recently I’ve been in a punky phase which isn’t slow at all. The kpop phase was actually appreciated more than I thought it would be.
Nobody’s like, hey, hand her the aux3 -

I have been likened to a cat in both personality and mannerisms, so in an odd way (or maybe not so odd way), I can relate. I don't fit into a neat little box for people to tick off (but when you think about it and actually get to know people individually, very few people ever actually fit in a neat little box) and I'm not particularly interested in being "not weird" for people to "get along with". And my face? Apparently, I either have perma-RBF or a face that says, "*kitten* off, I won't talk to you", when really the furthest thing is actually true.
I can and *will* talk to people, but I remain ever guarded and suspicious of the motives of other people. And again, that's nothing on those people; just too many times in my life I've either been burned, been the butt of someone's joke or otherwise realized that people are pretty *kitten* to one another and think that's acceptable behavior... and I'm not interested in that.
For what it's worth, it's okay if you "can't" and it's 100% okay if you're weird, different or less mainstream than the rest of the crowd you're around. The trouble comes from when and if a person makes that their sole defining personality trait.

Most of the music I listened to is best defined (by others anyway) as "slow stuff I want to kill myself listening to" or, in the words of my husband "music that sounds like it's playing at less than 33 RPM". I also oddly like baroque pop, particularly if it's poppy, but the lyrics are depressing as *kitten*.
But apparently, that makes me a "downer".2 -
I like boy bands and showtunes so no judgment.
And I finally heard my first bts song (cuz it was likened to One Direction) and really liked it. Probably because it was likened to One Direction. 😀1 -

I need some advice.
Context: I am gunshy to say anything to anyone, especially a woman, because my assumption is that it will be misconstrued in some way, and come off as unwelcomed and/or inappropriate.
I work on a college campus that employs some 5000 people, so most of work relationships I have are just that: cursory work relationships -- very few actual friendships, and very little contact with anyone outside of work. I found out yesterday that someone from another department, that I've worked with a handful of times, is leaving. We know each other through work, are friendly, but certainly not friends, and we've never spoken outside the context of work/meetings.
I'd like to send her an email and (1) congratulate her on the new job, and (2) let her know that she had an impact on me and part of my career (inspired me, if that's not too much / over the top).
I've drafted the email a couple of times and it feels awkward. Should I trust my gut or am I overthinking it? Email is along the lines of...
Hey, heard you were leaving. Good luck, hope it shapes up to be all that you want it to be.
I wanted to thank you for your help over the last few years. You've helped take a part of my job that I just kind of did and turned it into something I enjoy and am considering making a larger part of my career path.
Good luck with everything, and thank you.
Thoughts? Advice?

Hit send NOW. Honestly, I think it's perfect. You're not some rando emailing her. You've worked together so it's not really out of the blue that you're wishing her well and letting her know she had that impact. And you're not hitting on her (STILL thinking about that approaching an acquaintance at the gym thread).
Send it.
And if she comes back with, "*kitten* you. I don't need your well wishes you...you...you....MAN!" I'm sorry for the bad advice.

I would send it 😊 not sure why she's leaving her job but if I was leaving a job and received a message like that, it would put a smile on my face and I would appreciate it.6 -
