Not everyone is a complex, tortured soul. Some people are simply unpleasant.

Who says most people are misunderstood?

What is it with these bullshit threads?

NormasArse · 27/04/2026 10:09

I agree, OP.

I’m looking at you, Richard.

What do you mean ‘most’? Do you mean that ‘most people’ who struggle with friendships or whatever aren’t misunderstood and lovely, but actually unpleasant, hence the lack of friendships?

Most people? Of course not, why do you think most people arent likable?

I'd just like to stand up for the goth community here and state that they are indeed complex, tortured souls, and rarely unpleasant, in my experience.

As I tell my kids, "everyone is an arsehole to someone".

Even the most "saintly" person will unlikeable/unsufferable to some people.

This is how things should be really.

For many people it’s a lack of communication skills. They don’t know how to convey what they mean, are misunderstood then get defensive.
