I think Im too empathetic I don't really feel any emotions besides empathy. I'm not trying to be some edgy teen or anything, I've just felt completely indifferent about everything since around 9th grade, and it's gotten worse since graduating high school a few months ago. What's also gotten worse is how I feel about other people. I used to be one of those idiots who could easily say 'I don't care' about anything and everyone. Recently though, I've been putting myself in other people's shoes whether I want to or not. No matter what someone does, I feel bad for them. I mean, unless it's a good thing of course. Someone could cuss me out and then I imagine something like "Wow maybe ____ had a bad day." and immediately I imagine them g

Is it time for me to get a ps4? I've wanted one for awhile but never really had an immediate need for one. All the games are nice but none really stood out to me in particular. That's still the case (with the exception of Bloodborne), but now Fallout 4 is a day away from (probably) being announced. I have enough money to buy one and a few games now, and nothing else to really buy. If I don't get a PS4 I'll probably just get a few 3DS games, books, and then save the rest. I know it comes down to my personal preference, but if you're a PS4 owner, I want your opinion. The bundle I was looking at on Amazon is only $400 and comes with The Order Collector's edition and The Last of Us Remastered, as well as a year of PS Plus I think. The deal seem

College students can get free Amazon Prime for 6 months So I got accepted into college yesterday and set up my .edu email and blah blah blah. Then I remembered the Amazon Student thing. If you have a .edu email address you can get 6 months of Prime for free, so that's cool. I just thought that if anyone would appreciate knowing that it would be people here. I use Amazon a LOT, so the free 2 day shipping is super useful. Here's a link to the program. ;refcust=N3PV2OQTBHIBNMPMB6ISHJIYCY&ref_type=generic NOW, just so you know that link is a referral from me, so if you sign up with it, I get a $10 credit. If you don't want to use my link, just search Amazon Student on google. If you do end up signing up for the free 6 months, make sure you

Make me feel like worthless garbage Seriously. This isn't a joke or troll or anything. I constantly think that when people praise me that it has some kind of hidden double meaning to it. If someone tells me I'm a good artist I immediately think they're just trying to make me feel good about myself. Same with any kind of compliments on my intelligence. Being told I'm good at things also makes me lose motivation to improve. If I'm already as good as all these people say, why do I need to try? I'm at a point right now where I just can't even be bothered to draw because I feel so unmotivated. Some people might say 'let us see your drawings' so you can properly criticize them, but unfortunately I don't have any recent ones uploaded anywhere. You

Basil what do I do I'm pretty sure my friend with a boyfriend likes me more than her boyfriend. She always tells me about how she doesn't feel good enough in their relationship or other stuff that's pretty depressing. I want them to work out and don't want them to break up and junk, but I'm pretty sure she likes me. I don't want to call her out on it in a serious way because if I'm wrong she might get mad, but what do I do. Should I just let her flirt and junk while badmouthing the guy and see what happens? I'm not really sure, it just makes me feel weird.

I just realized I have no dreams or goals I've never really stopped to think about what I want in life. I've had a few 'possible' careers that I thought I'd like: Psychologist, Software Developer (for video games), Neurologist, Comic Artist, just junk like that. However, I've never really felt strongly enough about anything to devote myself to learning more about them so I'll succeed. I just really have no motivation, and I have no idea what kind of career could help me find it. I don't think asking for 'help' would do any good, but I just wanna know if anyone else feels the same way. I graduate from HS this year and I'm gonna end up not knowing what to do.

Good gaming Youtubers again I'm in another boredom spike. I should be doing homework or something productive, but I feel so unmotivated and want to just sit around and watch other people do stuff. Anyways, here are my current favorites so you get a better idea (in no order) Jontron (yeah) Peanutbuttergamer (he does some stuff) GameGrumps (idiots playing games and it's somehow entertaining) Yuriofwind (pretty cool retro/cancelled game/ creepypasta videos) Danger Dolan (top 15 things) Matthew Sontaro (dude who does trivia junk) Anyway, there's also a few I keep meaning to try out, and a few I never want to see ever again. I won't watch Pewdiepie, or Markiplier, or Tobuscus, or SmoshGames. I'm about to try Cryaotic...hopefully he's okay. Of co

Why do people treat depressed/ suicidal people like idols? Seriously? Why are suicide 'victims' talked about like heroes? In my opinion they're weak people who can't deal with things that others can. There's no reason to idolize them or look up to them. If you're depressed, it's one thing. Get over it. You may say 'easier said than done', and that's true, but there's no good reason to end your own life, and no excuse to those who do. If you're suicidal, you're just an idiot to me. Sorry, but it's true. Maybe I'm a bit blunt about my opinion, but what's yours?

Do you keep your hobbies from your parents? So, Christmas is coming. This year my grandma is letting me make my list and order it off of Amazon myself, and then she wants to wrap it and whatnot just for her own sentiment, but yeah. Anyway, two of my main items (The Bakuman boxed set, and Kingdom Hearts II.5 HD) are things I'd usually.. keep to myself. I don't know why, but I'm really careful about my grandma seeing all of my Japanese based things. It makes me feel a little immature and even looked down on even though I know she doesn't really care. I guess I just made this to see if anyone else here is a little embarrassed by their hobbies like anime, manga, or video games.

Is this girl stupid or am I stupid So this girl that I had a thing for last year (it obviously didn't work out because of course it wouldn't) likes to tell me about her current boyfriend. She knew that I had a thing for her, and I guess she had a thing for me too she just didn't want to date anyone (that was her excuse). Anyways yeah, is she just being stupid telling me all about her current dude, or does she really just feel the need to tell me random stuff about their dates. Or am I just stupid for thinking that she's stupid.

Do you ever get bored of games? Maybe I just need to find some I'd be interested in, but recently, I'm just really bored of games altogether. I really want to find a good online game, I really want to find good console games, I really want to play a good game in general, but at the same time I don't. I love video games and I want to go into game development as a career, but they just seem so stale and repetitive recently. Am I losing interest, or are games just getting boring?

Motivational Speeches Today a few teachers gave some speeches (or rather played videos of people doing so) about being motivated to succeed in High School, emphasizing how important it is for us in order to secure ourselves a good future and blah blah blah. I know it reaches a few of the slackers, but most people seemed to ignore the message. I'm a slacker, but I ignored it. Point of this thread is to ask you all: Do you let motivational speeches/ lectures affect you in any way? Do they convince you to try harder? My answer is obviously no, but I'm curious.
