Making friends... [Oct. 28th, 2007|12:20 pm]
Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
I've made it no secret that I want to make friends and improve my social life. I mean I really need to improve it so badly. I've at least tried to do so with...well how successful it's worked for me right now I don't know

But right now there is something that concerns me about making friends and that is will they have had...problems with the GA

Now what I mean by that is that for the past few months I've been talking to this girl who found my MSN address on a MySpace bulletin, it's come to a point now where she talks to me nearly every day, but then again I guess that's not a bad thing, rarely anyone talks to me on MSN so I don't mind it.

Problem is that a while after I started talking to her I found out she had problems with a GA member who told me that the girl who talks to me on MSN is basically not as nice as she claims to be. But I kept on talking to her despite that, it makes me wonder if any new people I talk to on MSN are going to be like this, having problems with the GA in some way.

In addition last night when I decided to go home from the GA meet I met some ex GA people who I had not seen since February back when I went over to someone elses house, they let me join them but about a minute later I decided to take a photo of a street performer and once I did that and turned around, I could not find them, it seemed to me they just left me when I took the photo.

Look I know it's best not to make friends with people who might not exactly be good friends or really be who they claim to be or stuff like that, but with my case I pretty much have to make friends, I hope people understand this

Okay, I'll let you in on a secret here. If you want to make friends; beg them. Get down on your knees and beg them to like you. People love that.

If you want to make friends!

Wait, what do you mean I creep people out with these, that is not my intention.

I have to be honest about what I say, I don't just say things like I need to go out more and I need to do things more often that other people frequently for fun, I'm serious about what I say about these sort of things

nobody really cares what your intentions are if you act like an idiot.

No, you're not honest about what you say, otherwise you'd be willing to keep them up on your LJ even when people disagree with you.

Here's three things you need to learn about people, and life in general.

Perception is reality (what other people see you do, and how they see you is how they think of you).

Hope is not a course of action (you keep hoping for stuff, but unless you're willing to get off the computer and jump into the fire, it doesn't amount to anything more than your own personal daydreams).

Excuses have an effective range of 0m (you've always hidden behind one thing or another; right now it's you "have to make friends" why do you have to? Why don't you want to? Why do you need someone else to tell you if someone is a "good person"? Can't you figure that out by their own words and actions?).

Choose your friends based on your own criteria, not someone else's. That determines the type of person that you are.

Are you implying I've not been telling the truth on what I say?

Why do I need to make friends/go out more?...it's simple, it's one of those things I should have done when I was 18 or even younger

I've tried my best to fix that, I'm back in the GA, part of an Aspergers Social Group, but it's not enough for me, I have to keep up with adding more things to it

You should've gone to the Cathouse on Halloween. Not only would you have met lots of GA, but as long as you're in a decent costume you're pretty much guaranteed entry. It was awesome!

I checked out a few, they seem to talk more about what they did, rather than what they plan on doing
