Try to know a smaller number of people for a start....?Originally posted by freedoom11:Hi people,
i have faced alot of pain as i grow up. I had grown up feeling disappointment with both myself and people. I had stopped opening my heart up for a long time, perhaps for.. 7 years..till i met a fren who i really treasure alot but recently, we break up as friends. I still have friends who are there for me. However, i can't bring myself to open up/warm up to new people and people who are nice to me.
I was bullied in primary one, then was kind of taken advantage of in secondary school as i haven't met the friends that could appreciate me as who i am,. When i am in jc, i had grew even more antisocial. I was kind of outcasted in jc and had developed a kind of " don't talk" with people anymore, whenever i am in a group. Fortunately, i had met frens in society club that i can count on during my jc.
My mother has a very strict and unloving influence on me. I had learnt to be unaffectionate with myself and people and it does not lead happiness. I am not a very friendly person. People say i look fierce.
I feel pain.. cos i have met new friends who are nice.. and i could really like to get to know them better but i always felt this distance with people. I, on the other hand is also tired to deal with " ren " /people but yet i want to get to know them.
Did u watch Blood Diamond, the movie starring Leonardo Dicaprio and Jennifer Connelly? There was this particular scene when Leo and Jennifer were talking about the differences between a good and bad guy, when Leo said that basically, they are all humans, just that we are differentiated by our actions.Originally posted by freedoom11:Hi people,

Make friends out of your JC...Originally posted by snowiesnow:Yah, the feeling sucks.
I also dun have much friends. Especially now in JC, ppl are selfish and thinks that they are perfect.
Agreeable but there is always a way out... Just make one or two good friends that enough...Originally posted by snowiesnow:Yah, the feeling sucks.

I had met a group of people who i feel good with. However, i had felt low very regularly and have developed the feeling of NOT opening up to people. It is a habit that i had developed since my jc years and had began getting used to it. Suddenly being alone and no talking seems natural to me.Originally posted by mancha:You are giving yourself the wrong message.
You acknowledge that there are nice ppl and lousy ppl
This is good, you don't expect ppl to be standardised
Now seek the nice ppl, and be nice to them.
Change your message to "I am a social person."

i had often felt that i want and should be leave alone cos my participation in this social world will bring suffering to myself and others. Just let me bear the pain that i had feel alone. I do not want to burden others with my problems. However, when i am in a group or had met a person who has been treating me really nice, i really feel the urge to do the same back. However, if i am not feeling well, how can i react well to others? I feel awkward and uptight when i meet new people in a social situation.
I always feel this distance with people or should i say i tend to reject and push people? becos i do not want them to suffer to know me cos i am a person with problems.
