Secrets are all too easy to deal with. Skeletons in the closet are easy to hide. It’s when your entire being itself is a secret, that’s when interacting with people becomes complex and difficult, painful even.

I’ve noticed that so much of genuine social interaction rests on sharing experiences. Technical discussion is a kin to small talk and fails to bridge a gap between people and form a connection. It’s about seeing a reflection of yourself in your environment, seeing that a shared reality exists between you and another being, that’s what truly quenches loneliness.

The usual normalfag advice of “just be yourself” seems so appropriate now.
It’s possibly all they’ve ever known.

But try to look at it with full honesty, without bias: the closer you look at yourself and the actual course of your life, the more you realize the objective fact: you were the Rain Man retard. And all your imaginary lives are delusional fantasies.

There wasn’t a point in your timeline where you were ever close into turning into a functional life.

Another aspect of escapism is that it is an addiction.
Like junkies, we need ever higher doses and at one point there simply isn’t enough left, so we end up looking at the same shit over and over again desperately trying to remember how it was like when we first saw it, but by then it no longer satisfies.

Boredom is the real problem of men; humans can bear next to anything when they are distracted, and most of our activities are steered towards that goal.
