  • I'm a nice guy, but I am very hostile.

    Is anyone else out there like this?

    I don't seem to like people very much, they annoy me, in their traditional ways or 'we do it just for the sake of doing it' moments.

    I don't like to be in a crowd of more than 3 people, I tend to either walk away or stand back outside the circle and I will never talk, unless spoken to, but because I don't like 'small talk' I usually put an end to the conversation in less than 1 minute; by using small words.


    It's chinese new year, and all friends and relatives meet up, ( a lot like xmas), and I am expected to shake every single person's hand and say "happy new year". Now, I don't have a major problem with this, but I do find it to be one of those "do it just for the sake of doing it" moments. And I hate those the most.

    Don't get me wrong, I am extremely considerate and giving, but from a distance. I don't like to get in people's way or make a fool of myself.

    My girlfriend believes there is something wrong with me. but she is a female, and I would expect that from her, what do you think?

      Now I don't hate all people... just stupid people... which happens to be MOST people.

      I'm very social when I'm comfortable with the people around me. For the most part, I just can't stand people. When I'm around people I can't stand, I don't want to be social. When I'm around people I like, I'm social.

      Sounds pretty logical. But there are very few people I can stand. I tend to let people talk because I analyze them as they talk. I pay attention to their mannerisms, their use of language, how intelligent they come across as, etc. If they begin to annoy me, I pretty much lose interest in them and I walk away.

      It's very hard for me to be social when I'm around people that annoy me. That's why I don't seek out social situations with new people. I prefer smaller social situations so I can get to know people one on one, if possible. Larger social situations are acceptable to me if I'm with a group of people I approve of.
      To us, it is the BEAST.

          you bunch of jerks. I can get along with most people, and don't get frustrated even if people sometimes talk about stuff that I am not very interested in. As long as they're not offensive to me, or blatantly offensive in general, I have nothing against them.

          My god, how on earth can you stay on poly? how on earth do you expect people to treat you, if they judged you with the same standard?

            Sn00py's post describes me fairly well - though to some extent, it's general enough to be at least partially true for a lot of people. I have met very few genuine socialites who like large groups of people - I think most prefer several people they know well to larger groups.

            I don't think it's a bad thing, it just is. People are different and prefer different social encironments.

              You're just a bunch of pathological jerks. Here's hoping you won't be contributing any genes to the next generation.
              Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

                    Depends. In the context of Apolyton it's perfectly sane behaviour.

                      Could be Asperger's Syndrome.

                      I think this particullary because of the "extremely giving and considerate" comment. I say this because nearly all people with Asperger's (say they) feel that way but have trouble with expression/action because of the social (and other) difficulties. And you're insanely good at some things (like your civ mods), and that fits.

                      Wouldn't mean there's anything wrong with you, quite the contrary really.

                        That describes me pretty well also. People annoy me more and more the older I get. I´m turning into an grumpy old fart at the age of 36

                            I'm very social. I love small talk and just plain old bull****in. I can talk about nothing for days. Kind of like I do here.

                            I suggest those who are antisocial should join Toastmasters to get a grip with yourself. Small talk is a key to making good impression, good impressions leads to networking, networking leads to success. IMO, if you aren't able to socialize with anyone successfully the problem is with you, and not them...
