So you think people would rather hang out with people who are miserable, drags down everyone and cry when one girl rejects them? They are no fun to be around for anyone, even the other people who are miserable because it takes attention away from themSexual Harassment Panda said:Why haven't I?... Last line seriously made me cringe.
Why are we all bragging about high self-esteem?...as if that is what we want, the world to be inhabited by a bunch of people who think highly of themselves, because that's never linked to shitty behaviour or reprehensible personality traits...
People who think highly of themselves are a bummer, they just suck. They're no fun to be around, they're too wrapped up in themselves to realise that they are boring the shit out of you. My friends who hate themselves just a little bit are the best, they have humour, they make an effort...they don't just expect stories about their shitty, boring lives to be enough.
I'm sounding bitter...
I just hate this self-esteem movement that has been going on the last few years. Schools make a special effort to pump up the childrens ego's now, and I don't think it's beneficial.
If anything with the increase of emo's I think that more people have a much lower self esteem then before. There is a difference between someone who brags about them self and someone with a high self esteem. Having one is important in my eyes, most people like their friends to be happy, girls like it when a guy has a confident with themselves and job interviewers like an employee who is confident and can talk to people
I can't see a downside to having high self esteem then a few bitter people disliking me, who are so miserable I probably wouldn't want to be around anyone as hey are miserable.
Yes, you do sound bitter. Is it really benefiting you as a person being bitter and hating people who are happy with their lives?
