Feeling guilty for being me.
8 years ago
General
I feel like I should be sorry for my likes and interests.
Like I should apologize for the things I enjoy.
Like I should apologize for not being like everyone else.
I'm not that smart. I don't feel pretty majority of the time. (That's the least of my concerns)
I'm not always happy. I just tend to post the times when I am to make it seem that way.
My goals and aspirations seem like they have no significance to others like they do to me and I should apologize for that too.
Things that mean the world to me have little or no significance to others, I should be sorry for that too.
I'm sorry I can't help you understand me more. I'm starting to wonder if I even understand myself...
I care way too much about what other people think and it makes me feel guilty about being me.

You shouldn't feel guilty about what makes you happy, everyone has different tastes but I'm sure there are lots of people who you could relate with and talk about your interests with.
I've met a bunch of cool people on here, and I'm always blown away by how much I yell "SAME" when they tell me about what they like.
You just do you, and stay cool girl.
And your goals and aspirations are valid. If it's something that's important to you, it's important in general, and don't let people convince you otherwise. You're good, your interests are good, fuck everyone who makes you feel bad.
I'm tired so I feel like I'm not doing a good job here, but I just want you to know that this dog mom thinks you're pretty damn great. I'm proud of you for being you.
Second: In the words of Dr. Seuss,
You Are You!
That is Truer than True!
There is no one alive who is You-er Than You!
Everyone is different. You're you and others are themselves. You're a cool awesome person just the way you are. Don't apologize for being that.
Having different likes and dislikes is what makes us ourselves.
If we liked all the same things, we'd be boring and nothing interesting would ever come around.
The world needs people who think and see differently than others in order to continue improving.
Not everyone is the same, I mean in reality A LOT of people just pretend to be the same because they fear no one will accept them when everyone is different with different tastes and interests, being the same as everyone else wouldn't be all that fun at all because you wouldn't be you and everyone loves you as you are, because you are a cool person with driven passion and a heart of gold! Don't ever change because you are amazing and the only you out there and I wouldn't want anyone else!!
Honestly I'd love to chat about what you like, what your goals are, and what kind of person you are. That stuff means the world to me. It makes me feel happy hearing people speak about the things they enjoy, and it helps me learn about them too. It's probably not that hard to understand, after all, we're all people. I know it might not mean much coming from a random birdbrain online, but feel free to PM me if you ever have stuff like that which bothers you.
We're all different and unique, but not so different that we can't understand each other. Heck, sometimes it helps us understand ourselves when we look to others.
Be yourself, I know its easier said than done, but you'll be a lot more comfortable with yourself if you're honest with yourself.
