As long as I remain someone who I wouldn't choose to hang out with, it's idiotic to get all butt-hurt when the rest of the world agrees with me. If I want other people to find me attractive, I have to
be attractive; not demand that the universe cater to my needs.
It's entirely upon
me to change; not you.
I never said that you had to demand that the universe should cater to your needs. And yes it is entirely up to you to change and not me.
I might be wrong, but I think Piobaire was actually agreeing with all you said and just put it in words differently. He's saying that if one doesn't get attention from the people they want, they should change
themselves instead of demanding for
others to change. Just like you said, no one has to listen to someone who wants to start a casual conversation. If the person really wants you to listen, it's
their resbonsibility to explain the topic in a more interesting way or find another topic entirely that might interest you. I'm pretty sure that
that's what he's saying and if I understood correctly you were saying the same thing.
And I agree, too.
