Ive been single for about 3 months now, and theres this girl that ive been after, Alex. I was thinking about asking her to join me for a night out, but as I was talking to her, I was thinking of a paragraph in a book I read not too long ago "Some people enjoy being single because they enjoy the tranquility and the privacy of the lifestyle..." And I decided against asking her out because I thought that the fact I presented above has a lot of truth in it for me.
In all the activities I enjoy, most girls wouldnt even know what the hell im talking about, or even enjoy participating. And I cant get myself out of this slump, because when I think about it, ive noticed that I become more irriatble when in an enclosed space with more than 3 people. Its not that I hate people per se, its just that I hate ignorant people. And my entire envoronment for 30 miles consists of ignorant people.
I’d rather be at home, reading a book than in class, forcefully over hearong a loud conversation that goes along the lines of: "Oh my god, I hate him for cheating on me." "Well lets just burn his house down,hahahaha. You know im a total pyro!" And people close to me have noticed that when the statement if outright ignorant, I get pissed and correct them with a temper.
And when I look back on these moments, I think that no girl would want to be with what seems to be a teenage hermit. And, the girl im after might even be ignorant as well.
Any advice on this complicated (at least, for me) dilemma?

Its good that you know NOW that alot of people are stupid and ignorant. That’ll help you later down the line.
I doubt that there isnt at least one girl that is into what your into, you just have to find her. Girls like her are even harder to find because they keep to themselves like you do.
Be more observant of the girls your around all day at school, you might just find a hot one that keeps to herself. When you find her, go for her.

It doesnt matter how hot someone is, because being with them is never what you think it will be.
Kid have this way of building things up in their head, crushing on someone and imagining how it would be if they could be with that certain someone.
But its never how you think it will be. Just because someone is hot doesnt mean she is the one for you, and dont sell yourself short ether by getting with someone stupid.

it sounds to me like you might have a bit of depression going on, but since that post is all i know about you, its hard to say. what you have to do is find a base of friends (if you dont already have one) that you enjoy hanging out with, even if they dont go to your school. hanging out with them will make the stupid people more bearable, especially since you have someone to help make fun of them.
how well do you know alex? obviously she already doesnt drive you crazy if you have feelings for her. i dont know if you would describe yourself as antisocial, but if that is the case, a relationship might not be the best thing at this point in time. there has to be SOMEONE you can talk to... if not, i would get screened for depression. antisocial behavior and depression seem to go hand in hand.

I dont have more than 5 friends since my main one choked me half to death and I had to go to the hospital. Maybe that has something to do with it?

shit mrbungle. how old are you.most highschool relationships dont last more than a month. so if you go out with her, you can still probally keep your privacy. and who knows, you might like it. if it doesnt workout, then its fine. most highschool relationships and shortlived anyways.

Man you sound just like me and Holden Caulfield (Catcher in the Rye). I live in a place where a lot of people are ignorant/poseurs. I would suggest you just go for it and ask her out. We’re only in high school. Relationships just aren’t that serious.

Well unfortunately, the vast majority of our generation is just that: ignorant and apathetic. They could care less about what is going on in their country or society or world.
They’d much rather watch VH1 or MTV and see whether Chance or Tango get eliminated on season finale of I Love New York or if Jen and Alex hit it off on the newest episode of the Real World than watch the news for ten minutes to see what our current situation is over in the Middle East.
You have to accept that fact. That is our society and our generation. We’ve been plagued by the television and mass media. Metaphorically, they got us in a choke hold and they aren’t letting go.
Hell! they even tell people what to listen to, how to act, and what to wear; and they listen.
What also have to know, though, is that you aren’t alone. For every hundred drones walking the halls, there are still a few who do care.. a few who can think for themselves.. and a few who feel just like you.
If Alex is one of these ignorant people, she isn’t right for you. What you’re feeling is lust, not love. You will find a girl who feels the same way as you. All girls aren’t the same.
