Meh
I don't really have a story, just a timeline with a few noticeable events. My childhood sucked, while everyone was at recess, I would sit in a corner and read the same book series over and over again. I have never had a best friend, someone that likes me as much as I like them, all I am is that tall person who says what alot because he is 50% deaf. I am just so alone
Hello Meh,
I know how it feels to like someone so much more than they like or pay any attention to me.
I'm not half deaf, but...(please don't take this as boasting) so many people consider me this "gorgeous, blonde bombshell."
Hmm, do you know where this gets me? Lonely! I go places, as a single woman and men just assume that I'm either taken or that I'm probably stuck up. I've heard men tell me these things...sometimes months after they first spot me. They finally will say that they think I'm pretty cool and that they always wanted to speak to me. So, I ask them why they hadn't. The answers are all the same. They assumed I was already taken, or they think I'm "so beautiful that why would.I have anything to do with them?" Or, "I didn't know if you were stuck up and maybe shrug me off."
My point, Meh, is to let you know that a variety of people can be ignored in a way that causes a deep-seated loneliness. For example, my appearance is secondary to the person I am. I'm a down-to -earth, humorous, laid back and accepting person. So easy I am to speak to, but many are afraid. (their own insecurities) I will treat a person who is missing limbs just like anyone else- because they are! They are regular people!
Meh, I'm sorry you are alone. I am too, and it hurts more than I admit to far away loved ones.
It must be really hard for you being half deaf. Do you think that maybe people get shy about raising their voices....like, they don't want to attract attention to themselves? My suggestion is that you take new "friends" to wide open places, such as parks, lakes, fairs, etc.(loud rock concerts) LOL!This will allow them to get used to communicating with you in the way you need them to- but in an environment where they don't feel awkward. Do you realize what I mean? It may not be YOU, that they dislike; It could be that they're embarrassed to say things louder in public. Some things are personal.
Of course, we all have insecurities- We presume that we are disliked, when others may just be complacent.
What are your hobbies, your likes/dislikes?
