rather than judge each other and ourselves for our failure to be sociable,we might reconsider our biases and assumptions,even our sentimentality,,about relationship. perhaps some of our narcissism is a symptomatic attempt to recover a strong unrelated sense of self. how can we reach out to another,anyway,if we don't have strong devotion to our individuality?

i have to admit this is a bit of sour grapes on my part,because i really do want to find people to connect with more in my geographical world. but i think there's truth there too. maybe i'm halfway there...i'm lonely but i'm fussy.

i can relate to this. i don't know if that's good or bad but oh well, it's me.
