Re: Do you think you're an interesting person?

(Anonymous) 2022-03-03 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Growing up, I suppose I always thought an interesting person is someone I (or anyone) would want to be around and have conversations with them. Ask them questions about things they like and what their life is like. And no matter what they say, I would still want to keep knowing more about them/the work they do/what their interests are. Someone I would want as a friend.

My entire life before my mid20s I didn't ponder IF I was interesting, I just wanted to come off like I was an interesting person. And then I got a job and grew distant from my friends and IDK...I realized I stopped trying to seem interesting but I still felt/feel insecure. Now that I'm in my mid30s I understand that being an interesting person in the grand scheme of things isn't something I go seeking for validation from others and I've grown tired of trying to impress people or come off a certain way. I just am who I am.

And I feel like I'm not an interesting person. I don't have many friends, the ones I do have I honestly feel like only 1 (maybe 2) of them is a stable friendship, my family life is like...I have parents and siblings. I get along with them but my family isn't...close or up to much. I've never traveled much or dated. Even in fandom spaces, I don't really socialize online unless on Anon (and even then I don't engage a lot).

But I began writing outside of Anon and there have been a couple of people who have DMed me wanting to know more about me. And I wondered why anyone would think I'm interesting? Perhaps, I fear people might not find me so interesting outside of my fandom/pop culture interests.
