If I could write, have the wisdom, the intelligence, and experience or whatever else...
I would write and publish a book just like this thread's title! (probably not!)
I almost picture a fairy tale esq story teller narrating it, along with the classified taxonomies of personalities/people such as a book of monsters.
I think in a certain light I'd find it hilarious, and probably accurate in an anecdotal sense. I just find it nuts how people can act regardless of who they are or their faith.
Perhaps the saying of "nice guys finish last" has some validity?
I've not been burned or grossly mistreated recently, but I continue to find most people aren't worth investing into which has been further accelerated since I'm going to move within a year or less. Plus Hawai'i does collect the worst, the weird, and overall the ones you really want to avoid. When I meet people from elsewhere they're nice but don't last long, and when I've been off island people are "too nice" to me almost. I suppose when you get your fill of stress, perhaps some lost hair, and get jaded things can go south so thus this thread.
I suppose the topic is...
Who else is sick of "most" people?
Are you reluctant to invest into people in general unless they really seem worth it?
Are there some personality types you avoid since that type will typically be abrsive to you?
Have some past experiences sensitized you to certain kinds of people and enabled you to smell a possible problem person from a few miles away?
Have there been times where you need to avoid people, to get a better view on things, and more or less just look out for yourself?
In the past have you put a lot of energy into somebody, and found that you can only really put a fraction of the energy you used to into others since you're burned out?
Are there times where you figure the only people or friends you'd like are the ones who'd put more effort into you to get things balanced out?
Have you become more blunt, direct, or one to jump the gun too quickly?
Ei see the worst in people first, easily accept people are going to disappear, or otherwise a tattered faith in people?
All these questions, or most pertain to an initial state after being poked, prodded, and jaded from too many years of being in the wrong environment along with a few recent events. So I know most of this won't last, but as of now I find that I'm in an odd state, and am curious where others have been before.
