friendships, difficult people are easier...

Post Reply New Topic

Sorry I just did not know how to title this thread. Being friends with forthright people is often simpler, they are direct often rude but at least you can be honest with them. And you know where you stand. Most of my friends have tended to be from the fringes of society, ex-convicts or people with other problems. Its much easier to communicate with people who have strong almost hard personalities, than having to keep up an act of normality and niceness.

I can relate to this. I had a friend that was very blunt but honest. Sometimes I find it helpful to be told to "stop whining and do something about your problem, or shut up about it".

That is true with me too. I have a much easier time relating to people who are different in some way than those who seem perfect. I feel the seemingly perfect people judge me and they look at me funny. We never have anything in common. People who are bold and upfront, who don't care what anyone thinks are the people I get along with best - I can actually carry on conversation with these people and understand them a bit.

Honest to goodness topic

I have found that when people are brutally honest with me sever contact after speaking directly. Mostly these people have been employers/supervisors. I am glad they were honest, but they may have decided for me not to hang around to see how I would react!

I am a person who would rather hear what the other person has to say. Then I can have my say. Friendship is a two-way street.

Yeah I agree in someway, at least then there open and say what's on there mind so you dont have to guess all the time.

The good thing about tough people is that they don't mind so much if you say what you think or don't see them much. They are not over sensitive. Sweet nice people tend to take offence easier, and feel hurt if you don't feel like mixing.

Sorry I have not really expressed myself very well in this thread.

If you know people like that and it works, then great. Though I imagine there are many other kinds of "difficult" people.

I'm a sweet, nice person, who prefers other people, who are sweet and nice.

it depends on what kind of difficult.


I like stubborn people because chances are they're almost as stubborn as me.

I also like people who don't give in to what other people think.

i dislike people who are rude all the time "so juts,lyke,gawd,lyke..GET USED TO IT!!!1LOLOLOLOLOLOLL!!!1111"
