/jp/ - Otaku Culture

[Cecilia No.]

I have no boyfriend at all, nor a friend in the world. I am not obese or horrifically ugly, only I have difficulty making friends and I tend to keep to myself. That is a bit of an understatement. I spend all my time in my room or in my house and hardly ever go outdoors. High school drop out. When I was in school, I never made friends, too shy, or was generally ignored (I could go days at a time without anyone but teachers speaking to me).

This is really terrible to me, as I want to make friends, but wind up just staying in my room. And have done so for the past 6 years. I think I am slowly dying in here, and worse yet, I force myself into this position. No wonder no person nor boy wants me. I need to fix my personality, or at least, my habits.

How do you deal, /jp/?

If this isn't a troll thread, can you explain why exactly this is related to "Otaku Culture"? Why not the advice board or one of the various shitty boards you can blog about your life on (such as /b/ or /r9k/)?

Reported, by the way.

Why fake? Because I'm female? It'd seem pretty damn believable if I said I was male. You all are rather messed up to think like that. I guess I am new, afterall.

[Anonymous No.]

>>5865440
Your mistake is admitting you're female.

If this isn't a troll, go to either Tohno-chan or AnonIB's hikkikomori board.

Most people here don't want friends, so no we can't relate.

I was told to come here. In any case, I thought it potentially applicable, although I suppose I was wrong. Sorry.

>>5865463
Because stating you are female in a thread like this is just begging for attention and asking for a troll thread.

It would have been an average "so ronery" thread if you'd just claimed to be male. Outing yourself as a girl is definitely seen as extreme attention-whoring and most people here believe girls = bitches and whores.

[Anonymous No.]

I find /jp/'s rationalization that they don't have friends because they don't want any hilarious.

Face it you fags, you can't get friends.

[Anonymous No.]

Why are you guys responding to this troll thread at all?

OP is there any reason for you to NEED to state you are female for you to get the replies you want to get in a thread like this? Really, just think about it, and then think why people are replying like they have.

[Anonymous No.]

I wish there weren't trolls or attention whores in this world, so that when something like this legitimately happened we could let the girl share in our beautiful misery in peace like any other anon. ;_;

That sounds more like /a/'s retardation.

There are decent one's, it's just that they come off the market very early. If you're out of high school you should just give up, only bitches and whores are still left. And really ugly women.

I've had friends, my friendships usually just wither away because I am terrible at maintaining them though.

Also I really like being alone. Hanging out with people can be nice too, but if I spend a day with people I tend to need at least a few days to recuperate before I can interact with them again.

I'd be your friend OP.

>How do you deal, /jp/?

Y'know, in all honesty OP, you sound like you should go do volunteer work

No, really, hear me out. The problem isn't that you hardly ever go outdoors. The problem isn't that you spend all your time in your room. See, these are things that point towards something that IS a problem, symptoms if you will, but aren't really bad themselves

That problem is fear. Fear of the world, fear of people, fear of rejection. This is something that every person deals with in their own way. There's nothing wrong with being a social recluse, a hermit, a hikikomori, whatever you wanna call it. But if you feel it's wrong of you to do that, that is because there is an underlying part of you that REALIZES that you need to get over this fear you have

Now, this is where the volunteer work comes into play. If you don't already have a job, well, that's the economy in the US at the moment, so there you go. If you do already have a job, then you probably won't be able to do this because you're already entrenched in a certain "mindset" when it comes to your workplace

What I want you to do is go volunteer for work at a place and pretend to be another person

[Anonymous No.]

>>5865814
>pretend to be another person
This. Women are expert on this, so it should be easy for you, OP.

[Anonymous No.]

>>5865814

Now, I know what your initial reaction will probably be. "But I want to be myself!" And that's a noble thought! Here's the thing, though: being yourself got you exactly where you are right now. Growing as a person takes a lot of things, but one thing in particular that you can use to help mold yourself into being the kind of person you want to be is emulating others. Like, think about your childhood rolemodel. Take the Anon here, right here in this picture. "What would Gene Starwind do?" He doesn't ask this because he wants to be a carbon copy of Gene Starwind, he asks this because he sees traits that he loves in Gene and wants to take those traits and make them part of himself. By pretending to be other people, just to some extent, you can take those traits you like in those people and bring them into your own true personality

"Okay okay, that may make some sense, but where does volunteer work come into play," you may ask. Well, because volunteer work represents a clean slate for you. If you already have a job, then you'll be, to some extent, "pressured" into maintaining a persona. It's really hard to describe what I mean, but on some subconscious level, whether it's in front of friends, family, or coworkers, you want to maintain a personality or appearance that they have grown accustomed to, or that you think they are accustomed to. This interferes with reshaping your personality because on some level you will feel compelled to maintain your old personality's habits

[Anonymous No.]

>>5865860

One example I could give is when your grandmother came over for dinner in your youth, or if not a grandmother then some other distant relation. You wanted to be prim and proper, you wanted to be respectful, you wanted to make a good impression, right? If you were a teenager at the time, chances are you wouldn't tell dirty jokes or do something that would interfere with the perception you wanted her to have of you: a polite and nice granddaughter/equivalent description of your relation. Something as simple as your audience can shape the way you portray yourself, and habitually exposing yourself to the same audience risks engraving certain habits into yourself. Personalities are like habits in a lot of ways, really, because they form habitually. If you're a quiet, shy person throughout your entire life, you're going to be quiet and shy until you, for some reason, need to bring another aspect of a personalty into your being

To use myself as an example, I used to be the stereotypical quiet bookish type. Hell, I still am, for the most part. What kicked my ass into gear and got me to reconsider how I portray myself was when I got into a sales job selling vacuums. Y'know how many sales you get as a quiet, shy salesmen? Fucking none. I HAD to reshape my personality just so I wouldn't starve, or at the very damn least learn how to pretend to be an outspoken, friendly, gregarious person for eight hours a day. Incidentally, pretending for a few weeks ended up MAKING me an outspoken, friendly, gregarious person who just happens to stay inside on weekends and never go into town except to buy groceries

TLD-fucking-R: Go volunteer for some volunteer work and pretend to be a different person for a little while. By doing this, you will be able to explore states of mind and ways of thinking that your current self may not be capable of. In taking conscious effort towards emulating other personalities that you admire or like, you will learn to cherry pick traits that you respect and bring them into your being and grow as a person

Also, how do I deal? I don't need to, at least anymore, because I've already done this

Take care OP. Knowing that you need to "fix" yourself in some fashion is a good thing, as that is the first step towards growing as a person. Good luck

What kind of volunteer work is good?

>>5865999
>What kind of volunteer work is good?

Honestly, any kind of volunteer work. It doesn't matter in the slightest. The only purpose for the volunteer work is to give yourself a clean slate on which to live your life. Ideally, you could find volunteer work that will be applicable towards job opportunities, social networking (getting "contacts," as it were), and developing skills, but for the purpose of this advice I am giving you, none of that matters. You just want a fresh audience, people who don't know you, people who you won't feel you have to hold a previously-developed persona in front of. This is, in my opinion, one of the most important things you can do when trying to find yourself

There's a reason many stories about "growing as a person," "finding yourself," or some such coming of age type trope involve going on a journey. It's hard to know who you are if you, on some level, want to remain as the person you've always been, which is easy to do if you stay among people you've known all your lives
