I was in a bar recently sitting with one of my friends. This girl sat next to my friend and said to him "you might not look like Will Smith or Brad Pitt but I can tell you are a really lovely person' and she continued "I am drunk right now but I am a good judge of character and can tell you are a genuine lovely person"

That made me feel down because that means she could probably tell I am not a good person :( . When I go out i am genuinely nice but very shy. Behind closed doors i argue with my parents a lot and make my family's life a living hell :(


Do you think she could instinctively i am not a nice person? :?

To me people who are drunk tend to say what they mean more literally than when they're not. She said you're lovely, I would think she liked you. What made you suspicious she meant something else?

James: It does not mean that the person didn't like YOU.

All that this meant was that she, at that time, liked HIM.

I would feel pretty jealous, but I wouldn't think that the girl didn't like me. I would have thought she was totally neutral about me (which wouldn't have made me feel very good, either).

The girl was talking to James' friend, not to James.

Sorry I misunderstood. I agree. Drunk people are filterless, she just was attracted to your friend, nothing bad about you!

Did she act like you weren't there all the time?

If yes, then your suspicions are probably accurate.

It stings quite a bit, but you gotta get through it, I've been there myself, so I know where you're coming from.

I truly don't think the girl disliked you. She was so drunk and oblivious that she might not have even known you were there. She was focused on the guy.

Forget about this, my friend. Move on.

This is the kind of crap which happens in bars all the time--maybe choose another venue to hang out in?

Why do you care what some drunk stranger thinks.

Sound's like you had a lucky escape to me

Let's say she didn't like you...who cares? She's drunk in a bar talking to strangers. Why care? You said she may have realized you're not a nice person, as if it's a fact. Do you think you are not a nice person?

Rudin:

This is why it's good that you don't go to bars.

Anything which occurs in bars will render you confused!

I think words like 'nice' are complex. We are all a mix of a lot of things. None of them define us completely. What makes you think you are 'not a nice person?' Is it because you fight with your parents a lot? There is a difference between 'being' something and 'doing' something. Can you think about something 'nice' you have done recently -- for yourself or your friends or a family member? If yes, in that moment, you were also 'being' a nice person. These things are fluid and complex.

I cannot go to bars and have no intention on doing so.

I like corner stores though which are fairly simple.

Yep...They are cool places.

I used to play pinball in corner candy stores when I was your age.

When I was six, I was able to get a soda and potato sticks for a quarter.
