…the thing is that if I don’t really fit in Hällefors, It doesn’t have to mean that I feel like you are responsable for it. I just don’t like that you would prefere that I pretend to feel otherwise, that’s all.
If I’m invited to a party, and everybody but me is having fun, obviously I’ll question myself, and not the others.
If after 8 years of living in Hällefors I haven’t been able to create a functional social network, it’s not you I blame, it’s me.
If I’ve been feeling lonely since I moved here, I might would have like it if you tried to reach for me…but maybe I haven’t reached for you eather…
We don’t share the same interests, the same tastes, the same views…the only thing we have in common is this town…and I’m afraid that’s not enought.
I’m as well fited here as a monk in Dubai or an eskimo in Kenya…that’s how I feel. You can’t change that, and I don’t expect you to take responsability for it ,or even understand it… But I surely expect you to accept it without taking it personally if you happen to read my blog.
The reason I started this blog was to try to understand why I was feeling so lonely and unfit…and it’s been rewarding. I’ve been able to understand that and a lot more, without sadness or bitterness… I can see why things have been this way and I can accept it. I know just what to to about it and I’m doing it.I’m not so lonely anymore, not so unhappy anymore, and hope that you can be happy for me, even if, as it seams now…we will never be friends…(does this sound radikal? well, there’s nothing like calling things by their names)
If you still feel like I’m sounding unfair and self-righteous, feel free to mail me or comment here.
Oh, and I realize that this might sound like I feel special or different and that I take pleasure in it…well those who know me,know exactly how HARD I’ve tried to fit in and how unhappy I’ve been for not succeding…the only difference now is that I have accepted that we are different from eatch other and that I am trying to persue other things than your friendship or social acceptance.
