Anime and Friends - 09-29-2007, 12:57 AM

I've been thinking lately, about how because of my unique hobby, I've never discussed any aniome with one of my close friends at school. I'm an ugly guy, I'll be blunt, but most of my friends right now are girls, one of whom, the girl I'm closest to, I've had a crush on for 1 1/2 years =P. But the wierd thing is that because of it, I feel like my friends have no idea who I am. My only friend who loves anime as much as I do is two years younger than me, goes to a different school, and has totally different tastes in the specific anime we like. I want to know, how many people are there who truely have friends to talk to about this in RL? Sorry for another long message, I have a problem expressing things in few words 0_o

My friends and I look like idiots when we talk about manga. We're not so public, but people still know we love it. lol...
But don't worry. Another reason why people are friends with eachother are because of different interests!


Thanks for reading!

I'm sure thinking you are ugly will just make you feel less confident in yourself and get you even less friends. You really shouldn't and should be more confident about yourself . Walk around with your head held high and don't back away from simple conversations with people. Everyone will treat you with more respect that way. Otherwise they just walk all over you. Humans are crappy that way.

You shouldn't be afraid to mention that you like anime either, because if you meet new people, who knows, maybe they like it too? I'm sure you'll eventually find friends who like the same things as you do!

Were I live, it's kinda difficult to find friends which like maga and animé, the way I like it. But there's some ^w^
I got around 7 friends who like animé, but the biggest part of them, I don't see a lot, because they live, in some other citis, long from me. Some of them, I have only see once <-<

But then I got a friend who live in the same city as me, and we are very good freinds, and she is a big animé/manga fan, like me. We talk a lot about manga and animé

But in my class, nobody likes animé or manga <.<""
They think I'm kinda weird, when I see/read it >____<
Then I'm glad I got all my other friends.. And I also got a lot of friends who don't like animé, and they are all nice <3
