People stress me out, I mean literally everyone.
It's just like, "Nooooo! I will not text you back, call you, or friend you on Facebook!"
But that's just because it's so rare for me to find people who I get along with.
If I could find people who aren't obsessed with things that don't matter, I would be ecstatic.
Not that video games or fashion blogs matter, but I mean like other people's boyfriends and whether or not someone knows what dabs are.
Do you know what dabs are?
Probably not, because it's one of the most inconsequential things on the face of this planet.
It's just the fact that people will literally judge your character based on who you're dating, your use of slang, and whether you know anything about cannabis culture.
Does it matter?
Is everyone in California so shallow, or is it just my age group?
Am I boring for having the desire to spend my energy on anything more meaningful, or at least something interesting.
When did it become okay to criticize people for not having the same interests or the same personality as you?
After we've been friends for all these years and after everything that has happened, I cannot believe that this is what I hear from the people around me.
And then they expect me to play along, as if I'm a carbon copy of every one of my friends.
People with unique personalities are often misjudged and looked down on, I don't understand why.
Shouldn't we celebrate that everyone is different, instead of striving to be the same.
How can you spend your life working towards being someone else?
