The Game

I can't do it. Why should I get criticized on the way I decide to live my life? And just because I don't do things like everyone else, I'm considered a cheapskate, an asshole, and in need of redemption. I don't freaking understand why people believe that if you don't act a certain way and do certain things and buy certain stuff that people won't like you. And if as the male in the situation I don't do something that I guess is "expected", which I really don't think is at this stage in the game then someone can't still see me for me. I don't get that. I don't like being labeled, even by family.

I get it... it's nice and I guess "right" to do certain things and money isn't everything but I feel like at this age my peers and I are mature enough to see past the BS and just be real right? Maybe I'm asking for too much? Maybe I missed the sign.

To be honest I just suck at this. I'm not good at impressing people, I'm not good at putting on fronts face to face, and I'm just not down with buying people's hearts.

And this is probably me just being ignorant cause I'm sure that's how it is for everybody else. Maybe I need to learn the hard way.

  1. It's never been about impressing people, yeah. The only one we have to impress is God, and when we do that fully, people will naturally be impressed, ya know? Live by the standards you have, and really, ignore those criticisms. None of us humans have any right to criticise others. We're not perfect.

    You're a good guy. Don't listen to what they tell you.
