Would you hangout with yourself?

[kingpepe8006@sh.itjust.works]

Just came across this question on reddit and tbh....i don't know

People have always told me(including my parents) that i am very antisocial, i don't know how to speak, i don't smile often, i'm shy, i look very judgemental or i'm just too egotistic....so i don't know if i'm actually someone worth hanging out with

And no i didn't make all these things up i have heard it all my life from my parents, teachers, friends etc.

I don't know if its just my luck or something about my looks or the way i speak but people don't really hold back against me

So what about y'all?

[opinionhaver@feddit.uk]

Absolutely. In-fact, me is who I most often hang with.

[urheber@discuss.tchncs.de]

I would date, fuck, marry & kill myself

[sbv@sh.itjust.works]

Probably not. I don't really want to be around people who act like me. I've done a decent job of reigning in my most asocial behaviours, but they still get through.

On the flip side, other people seem to like the version of myself that I currently project, so I think I'm doing a good enough job.

[sbv@sh.itjust.works]

In that order, right?

[nemo@midwest.social]

One-on-one? Sure, I'm hilarious.

In a group? No. I'm an attention hog, I don't need the competition.

[nocturnalmorning@lemmy.world]

Depends on the day. Sometimes im fun, sometimes im not so fun. Like anybody, I have days where im in a decent mood, got plenty of sleep, and then other days, I slept like crap, im cranky, and im just trying to keep my head down and get through the day.

[piskertariot@lemmy.world]

No. I get introduced to people who are "like me" and I don't like them off the hop.

I recently hung out with my own father, and when he would say words that were in my head, they sounded awful.

People like me. I have friends. I like my friends. But I do question their judgement being friends with me.

[pissmidget@lemmy.world]

God no, I have a hard enough time hanging out when I'm present, I don't need another me ruining the ambiance.

[gon@lemm.ee]

Well, that's a complicated question.

On one hand, I do already hang-out with myself basically all the time. I talk to myself a lot and I'm my own wall to throw stuff at.

On the other hand, I'm also very antisocial. I would definitely not enjoy spending this time that I spend with myself with another, physical person.

So, that.

[pika@sh.itjust.works]

I would hang out with myself, but I feel like it would be a very quiet meeting because we both would just be doing our own thing because unless someone else is spearheading the conversation or as a topic that I'm passionate about, I generally stick to myself anyway.

[bonesofthemoon@lemmy.world]

Yes indeed. Not to be braggy but I'm super friendly and fun and loving.

[ripandterror@sh.itjust.works]

Yeah. I would. I've been asking myself that for a long time and I've tried to become someone I would get along with.

[quediuspayu@lemmy.world]

Probably yes, I talk to myself all the time and my sense of humour happens to be pretty similar to mine. At the very least is worth a try.

[archonet@lemy.lol]

I'm apparently best enjoyed in small doses; nobody else really seems to enjoy my company long-term, so why would I be any different?

[scytale@lemmy.zip]

I would definitely jam in a band with three of my other selves. We'll be able to make music pretty quickly because we literally have the same minds.

[empricorn@feddit.nl]

I don't see how "kill" could be in any other place than last.

[victorz@lemmy.world]

Maybe use the opportunity to audit your behavior. Give others some room and shit. Could be a thing.

The more times I read this, the deeper it gets.
