Maybe it's just their way of saying "Wow, I feel alone; let me try desperately to fit in with someone else because society has pounded it into my head that I am different and I am abnormal and people need to tolerate and accept things about me."

Maybe it is. Its quite possible, and that sort of thing really makes me depressed, because if someone has to change the way they are because they feel alone, then there's something wrong with the society. My friend had a close-knit group of friends who love and care for him like a brother; me included, and to suddenly have to change to fit in? It doesn't sit well with me. I mean, maybe its because I've never felt that drive be accepted by everyone else...but I guess it just doesn't make sense to me.

But that's just the thing. I don't know your friend personally so please don't think I'm trying to say I know him better than you at all, that would be retarded of me. But in many of these cases, people basically go through a belated adolescent identity-phase stage, because they had to repress that part of themselves for so long, and acting like that will make them fit in with people who are like 'them', because even though people who aren't like them love them, they still feel alienated and 'different', and that's society's fault. If that makes sense?

[ironjill.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it does make sense. I've never really enjoyed the idea of "acting out" against the "evil corporate drone-ish way that everyone wants you to be" or something...because it always seems to be in the exact same ways that people act out? I mean, Its just a need to fit with people who may not even like them, and alienating friends...people that would stay with them forever and always give them a shoulder to cry on that I don't get...I mean...its like lying to yourself in a whole other way... and that's what someone would want to get away from...right?

It really is, and it's a sad thing, but I don't hold it against people :\ you know? It's a lot harder for men, since being gay in so many other men's eyes demasculates you, so sometimes they have no choice but to just act more feminine to fit in with girls :\ and be desirable to men. And that only applies to explain SOME of them. Every person is a complicated individual case.

I will agree with that Statement. Every single person in this world is a unique and complicated case that confuses the bejeesus out of me.
