>you are so self ashamed and you are so obssesivily self-aware about your cringe making cowardice
I'm with you so far. I agree with some slight reservations.
> that forget all the hipocrisy and intrinic rules and fake notions of yourself what you need in order to be "genually" social
Now you've lost me. Are you saying that being social (or at least, for someone like me or OP's friend to be social) is inherently dishonest and hypocritical? If so, I don't agree with that at all and I won't waste time refuting it because you didn't see fit to support it.
>basically you idealize the social game
Now you've outed yourself as one of us, but like OP's friend, you lack a certain level of self-awareness. Are you saying that you consider meaningful relationships as just part of "the social game"? And if I "idealize" these relationships, why shouldn't I? Aside from faith and love of God, what could possibly be more important than love, friendship, brotherhood, etc. with other humans?
>you want to be part of it but you cant, or you think you cant
Exactly. There is nothing wrong with wanting positive social activity and meaningful relationships. I would like to bring to your attention that 4chan is a pseudo-social tool, we are socializing in a way right now, and that reading literature is maybe the highest and most intimate form of pseudo-socializing, being a somewhat efficient and accurate connection to the thoughts of others.
