Why do you sound like a fairy tale creature wanting to eat them, poison them with an apple, or some other some such when you said that? ;)

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm certainly a creature, but not one with nefarious intentions. I'd let you know if I was. I'm not very good at hiding that kind of thing.

Same. I'm surprised when people hate me because I expect to be completely ignored. I have a very mild version of self loathing. I think I'm boring, unremarkable, etc. So, when people hate me (or are interested in me) it surprises me.

I don't really mind if people don't like me though I do kind of find it interesting as I keep to myself and not cause conflict with others.

I am completely thrown if someone takes interest in me though. It's like, why? Does your lack of information about me make me mysterious or something? Because what you see here is what I am.

Now I hate you too, so that you stop being surprised. Truth is, the world is a messy jungle and there are many pricks. Not everyone is to be liked.
