you are not annoying here and I don´t think you are in real life : D but I think I know this feeling.

Where did you get this idea that you are annoying? Did somebody put that in your head when you were little? Sure, all of us will be annoying to somebody, that's just the way it is, just like we will find some people annoying. But I'm very un-annoyed with you personally, and I can't imagine many people here are annoyed with you!

Sometimes I think we can make the mistake of trying too hard with the wrong kinds of people, and then we will get negative feedback for our efforts. Sometimes too we can just try too hard. I cultivated a bit of nonchalance in my mid-20s and it made a big difference.

Thanks, you two :) For a while there I felt like I was starting to love myself and I was really happy, and then everything went to crap with my irl support system :( I always worry that I annoy everyone here too. I annoy everyone irl. :(
