i find myself downplaying my craving for romantic connection too, it’s ok to want somebody to connect to

this is so real somedays i rlly wanna go and somedays i would rather kms than go, what matters is u push urself no matter how shitty u feel

Killing people

Tough question.

I think I've gotten a lot better with these kinds of emotions as I've gotten older, and I assume that's the case for most people.

When I was younger I struggled to advocate for my needs, wants and desires, and so I felt a lot of regret and wished secretly for a different outcome even if it was my fault for how I ended up in a situation. I'm not sure if I would say I currently struggle with that as much as anymore.

so u regret not advocating for urself and wished u had for a different outcome? honestly i can relate to that, sometimes u just wanna rewind time and handle things differently. it’s easy to get stuck blaming urself for it, but the fact u recognize and don’t struggle with it as much anymore shows a lot of growth

It took time though and it took me realizing that advocating for myself was not selfish.

Refusing to advocate for yourself actually makes it more difficult on those around you - it does not make it easier for them or anything. In the instance of partying and stuff, you not only rob yourself the opportunity to experience something fun and enjoyable, but you rob your friends of that memory.

For me it was hard to make change solely for myself, so I had to understand how my behavior effected others before I realized I didn't want to keep doing that to them and that they deserved a different version of me than one that was focused on the wrong things.

Not sure if that helps you but it helped me.

I pretend I don't mind pretending, I'd rather not pretend


I pretend that others pretend that I don't pretend, but they don't do that


Additional:
I pretend not to be sensitive, but I am
Or I pretend to be sensitive, but I’m not and I regret not being sensitive

Just deflection, once you start adjusting to those things and playing them out well in your head instead of forming a skewed picture of it you won't hate it.
