Compromising for self preservation

There are different kinds of people on earth. Some are compatible, some are not. Although I have always held that notion wrong, it might be true in some part if more than a billion people believe in it. When you see that you are pretty much incompatible with a lot of people, what do you do? Do you take refuge in the cover of fate, and tell yourself that this is how things are meant to be? Or do you try to find out the reason? What if you find the reason that there is something wrong with you … or maybe you find out that there is nothing wrong with you?

Do you ever try to compromise on your wants and needs from the people around you, for the fear that you might not have anyone left if you keep your ‘wants’ up? Do you try to like people for the fear that there might not be anyone else? Do you ‘make do’ with what you have or do you try to change situations? Are you active or reactive in your social life? But bigger than that … is if you’re happy in your circle.

Are you just trying to get along for the fear of having to find new people all over again, meeting strangers, getting to know them, telling them about you? Are you afraid of putting all that effort again, and rather just carry on instead of trying to get any kind of fulfilment from it all? Isn’t that what your social life is supposed to do – help you relax? Give your opinions and thoughts an outlet?

Anyway, I don’t have much right to talk about outlets and social lives, and maybe even social mannerisms. I don’t have a social life, which is why this blog exists as a repository of my thoughts and opinions for anyone who might want to read. But I’d like to ask anyone reading this to do one thing. Do not ‘go on’ with people just because you don’t want to make the effort of finding real friends again. Believe me, the ‘real’ friends exist … there are people for everyone. It’s just upto you to find them. And you never find anything unless you keep on looking…
