- People that think I'm a genius (usually based on one event which would be my strong point) and then expect me to continue being so with every moment. I can't do expansive thinking 24/7. The last time I did, I had issues sleeping.
- People expecting me to know celebrities of any type. Fame is of void purpose to me when I consider an individual's value (or their history, if I was learning about something) to myself. I have little care to share about their achievements,
especially if they were essentially puppets of the big businesses.
- "What is your favourite x" questions. My mind isn't stagnant, preferences change over time. A 'favourite song' usually only retains that status for a week at the most, for example. Even faster when I discover something new and interesting to listen to.
- Love, specifically the couple type. It's something I just don't understand. When people speak of the positive things they would do for their loved ones, why not friends? Is my definition of a friend vastly different to everyone else? That'd explain why I don't have much, by my definition.
I'll also add that 'my other half/soul mate' bull
to the 'love' point above. It really, really ticks me off. We aren't born as halves. We are a whole. This phrase used constantly implies that our lives are incomplete without the 'other half'. It's completely ridiculous. There are many people have lived very good lives without such a partner.
I've lived for nineteen years now and do not lust a 'soul mate' at all. Haven't once had a girlfriend in my life. My brother has one at the moment, and yet people call me jealous out of the blue. All I see between my brother and his girlfriend is a friendly relationship. I don't have to involve specific physical contact to replicate such a relationship (disclaimer: my brother is not at that stage yet) with a good friend.
If someone happens to come along and we become really great friends, then fine. I'll take it as a luxury, as a bonus. But I definitely do not see it as a requirement. There's no way in hell I'll hunt for 'the other half' either. I have the potential to be badly stubborn, so nothing will convince me otherwise.
And to add to all of this, you know when people scream out, "This is the one!" and end up getting a divorce/separate. It's ironic, isn't it?
The above isn't to say that I favour homosexuality or something else (however I do not despise people that are), because what I have said can apply to that as well.
- Destiny, Fate, Prophecy. Every time I hear these words in a movie/show, my rating on it absolutely plummets unless said movie/show is mocking, or in some way ridiculing, about it. I don't want that superstitious
, fictitious or not.
- People approaching my only comfort zone. Outside, when I'm working or something, it is entirely different. But in my own bedroom, the only place where I can truly be in my own mind, is not a place to just waltz in without a
very good reason.
It's extremely infuriating when I go to my room
to avoid society in the first place only for society to come to me. And then people wonder why I'm in a state of depression.
