    Its less the content and more the frequency if you get what I’m saying. Like it’s no different than Alina whining about hating Russia every other day and post. Your grievances are valid. It’s the amount of it you post that can turn off some people.

    I’m not bothered because I’m a crotchety old man at this point, but not everyone sees it that way.

    • I guess this is why my mom is getting so frustrated at me.

      She thinks my depression is just “seeking attention”…

      That’s the truth of this world, doesn’t matter how close someone allegedly is, you open up to your issues and they just turn you away…

      Except for those getting paid for it… in that case, they’ll gladly take your money and get paid for listening… (probably not even listening and forget it in like 10 minutes…)

      Every social interaction is inherently transactional

      Some people listen because they are just enjoying popcorn while listening to your misery… but once thwy had enough of it, they’ll immediately unfriend you…

      In this world, its kill, or be killed (maybe not literally, but in terms of like society killing your self esteem, absolutely.)
