So ive got suggested to read it and i did. First of all its amazing i loved it. Second of all and the most importantly… unironically this character is almost me. Except the God part because i do believe in God and i hope he exists. But when i was reading his thoughts on everything around him i found myself in it, i even got excited during the parts when he went to cinema and chilled with that girl. Whats even worse is i even got in situations when i did something innocent but in the context it actually wasn’t (said some stuff to a teacher that got me in a huge trouble, did something at my work because I didn’t thought about how it will look). It was weird.

Meursault is a drooling idiot who cucked himself out of a future and killed a dude because he blindly obeyed a man who literally everyone knew was a bad person. If you are like him, slap yourself and grow a pair.

I think you are right. It’s not like i choose to be like that. My environment made me detached as fuck. Sometimes i even just stop talking during a dialogue because I don’t want anymore, i cock blocked myself like that a few times. I do have a pair, but i also have a hole in me. A void. I would never do anything criminal because i do care about future, i just highly relate to his detachment from everything, to his indifference to people around him.

Work on the empathy. The selfishness of youth can not be maintained for most, it becomes empty and hollow.
