But to expound on this, notice how many "adults" are quick to belittle and bully everyone they see? They gang up on others for no reason other than social status. Look at this board. Then even when they're being helpful, they still find a way to be harsh and hurtful while telling you to fuck off. It's like my friend said: most adults never escape the high school phase. They just become more subtle about being obnoxious; I really don't think the difference between children and adults is as large as people would have you believe. At best, adults practice more situational restraint, but there's no reason to assume good intentions by default when they do that. Besides, even if they are being sincere in those cases, it doesn't make them a good person. At least children/teenagers are honest and direct, which I believe society needs more of for non-nefarious reasons. Hint: I think honesty would save a lot of heartache and awkwardness in the long-term if people could get past pussyfooting in the short-term for the sake of their own emotional comfort. MrDrMan posted... You dont understand the simple fact that people dont want your advice I do; I just don't care. Well, not inherently. MrDrMan posted... Stop inserting yourself into situations where your help isnt wanted. Its literally that simple. Maybe. An alternative scenario that's equally viable is for people to learn to grow a thicker skin and stop taking everything so seriously. This is another example of how adults aren't much different than children; and you want to call me arrogant? Anyway, yes. Objectively, I have a better handle on an alcoholic's situation than they do. Why? Alcohol wrecks your psychology. My friends' feelings aren't as important to me as their livelihoods; I will purposefully overstep boundaries in that case, even if they've erected them. I'm not going to watch them just kill themselves physically and mentally for an unnecessary chemical fix. Like, do you even know what the fuck alcoholism entails? People's entire lives, including their connection with friends and family members, are frequently destroyed because of this. Fuck boundaries, fuck social norms, and fuck feelings. I'm not watching that. <cite>Flea_Plus posted [p:966828814] in lol, i tol...
