Ah, that makes more sense now. I'm 34 and was recently out to dinner with some friends all in their mid 20s. At several points during dinner, everyone of them was buried in their phone texting or looking at social media. I figure now most younger people in that generation dislike interacting face to face or hearing other people's voices. My prediction for our dystopian future: we become a mute society who can only communicate through typed messages.

Seek counselling. You've been through a lot, and are going through a lot again. Cycles never end until you understand their root. Not saying you have a problem per se, people usually talk about counselling with a negative connotation. It should be positive and assist you in finding the answers that lie within yourself. If you take this the wrong way, call me a douche. |

I'm pretty sure Billup told her the truth, and Sara (unlike a LOT of people) decided to think about it long term implications of talking to said guy and said "no thanks"
Pretty sure the guy wasn't interested in anything serious, but I'm just speculating. |

Pretty much what billup summed up for me. I was thinking it, but it took someone else to say it for me to believe it.

Haha, right? Geography does make it a little difficult for this group to meet up and hang out though.

Not hard to call out a bullshitter when you've been a lifelong bullshitter yourself.

I do see so many people everywhere I go just mindlessly staring into their phone or too timid to actually talk. Not developing real interpersonal skills will only cost you money and opportunities in life. Fine with me I guess, less competition in that regard. Oh and one more thing...fk selfies and selfy sticks.

I had that convo with a director of marketing at a BMWCCA meet a month or so ago. She agreed that social skills are becoming a commodity.

I used to have Facebook when it was just a game. It replaced real social interaction entirely in some circumstances (birthdays and life updates for instance, it's all online now). Quit it over a year ago. Never looked back. |
