anas I wish I had a sense of humor. People try to joke with me and I find it so unfunny when I know you're trying to make me laugh. Most jokes are so predictable I feel like I've heard it all and I'm tired of fake laughing
Lol thatâs not your fault - I honestly canât do the fake crap either. Literally my supervisor makes jokes and I stare / smile blankly while my colleagues are like ROFLMAO and iâm like this ainât funny.... as nice as my supervisor is i canât feign interest
I canât be fake nice either lol. Like I know a lot of people think I am on this site but I just like to treat others the way Iâd want to be treated + that, combined with me being an over thinker, leads me to not suck up to people / not say sweet fake things. I may just keep my mouth shut about things I dislike but I never compliment anyone fakely. However it leads to a lot of people considering some of my inconsiderate friends to be the ânicest everâ and me to be âmeanâ (like a good mean - they still like me / know I wonât BS / am trustworthy) but when it comes to short first impressions, I can hold my own but dont compare to the âfakeâ people. I literally called out one of my âniceâ best friends on how she just pretends to agree with things when she has no idea wtf weâre talking about and she was like âomg whatâ and everyone was like âholy shit ur rightâ. I still love her but itâs kinda lame imo
Timster YEAH FOR SURE - I grew up with a sister who is freaking smart af and hilarious so I KNOW whatâs funny and what isnât!! Youâre definitely top notch as far as humor goes imo honestly - I guess we both need to work on pretending to be somewhat interested but I donât think it should hold us back too much!!
Timster I get the feeling, i have this natural habit to laugh at everything even if I donât particularly find it funny. I think you just got to ease up and just filter the noise/ small talk and get on with it, take it one ear and out the other. Think itâs great youâre being self reflective though
