It seems like kindness is less common as time goes on, but hopefully it will make a resurgence at some point. I'm happy to hear that I am able to make you feel comforted. I often do question if I help anyone at all, but I'm glad to see that I do make some type of positive impact. I hope that you will have lifelong friends too because it's unique, I mean I don't see many friendships lasting that long anymore. So it is special when it happens.
Oh I see, well she might care but she probably finds it hard to express her feelings. I think my mom can be like that sometimes too. And you kind of learn how to live life from your parents, and sometimes it can be hard to change things that have been ingrained into your mind. I've always been a loner too, at least people didn't generally want to take the time to get to know me. So I mostly keep to myself except for the people that I know pretty well.
That happens to me a lot, probably good that I buy plastic things now so a bunch of stuff doesn't get broken anymore.
I'm glad that she is understanding, and yeah sometimes accidents happen so you should try not to be too hard on yourself.

You are a rare, precious and unique gem in this world so please try to never doubt that. I understand that it is easier said than done sometimes though of course. Thank you for saying you hope I will have lifelong friends, me too for sure, the idea of being at the end of my life with “none” is definitely a terrifying one for me for sure. I do my best to think happy/positive thoughts about the future of my life though of course lol. Ya it does seem to be rare for friendships to last long these days. I agree it’s special when it happens, definitely Yup I think you’re quite right with my mom just finding it hard to express her feelings. I do believe that deep down that she cares, I mean if she didn’t then I think she wouldn’t bother doing any of the nice things she does, so I do try to keep all those things in mind about it for sure. You’re so right with it being hard to change ingrained mind patterns. Aw well I gotta say it is definitely always really nice/comforting and reassuring to meet another fellow loner lol. I think there’s definitely lots of positive things to being such a way. Without constantly having others to turn to about everything that “happens” (good or bad) I think we (loners in general I mean here lol) often end up finding our own ways to give “self-appreciation” and that seems to be a rare thing these days. I don’t mean the shallow kind of course (that is more rampant than ever these days I think lol) but the deeper, more absolute kind if that makes sense. The kind that is actually truly “meaningful” is what I mean pretty much.
Anyway omg sorry really trying hard to keep my replies a lot more focused/on point without going off on tangents (tangent outta be my middle name sometimes I think, lol) so ok - ya I can relate to keeping to yourself except for people you’re closer to, it’s somewhat like that for me too. I think I’m good at doing the whole small talk thing with people, but ya I do generally get the sense that most people aren’t interested (or are maybe afraid, who knows) in getting to truly “know me” either.
Aw sorry to hear the dropping thing happens to you a lot too, but that’s good you buy plastic stuff now so things don’t break. Ya I was definitely really grateful for my sis being understanding about my uncharacteristic (usually) clumsiness with dropping things so much, had already been so hard on myself in my mind about it that’s for sure. Just don’t ever want it to be obvious that I’m “overwhelmed” or like I can’t handle whatever is going on. But yup you’re right about trying to not be so hard on myself, I will keep trying to be better about that.
Yup, seems that way to me too with kindness being less common as time goes on. I hope it will make a comeback too, the sooner the better lol. Aw I’m sorry to hear you often question if you make much of a positive impact at all, but please know that with every post/reply you so kindly take the time to do that you absolutely are!

I think we do understand things like appreciation better because we haven't experienced it as much maybe from people in our lives. I usually would just keep to myself and people didn't know I existed or they just ignored me...well I guess that was better than the people who did notice me and thought it was fun to pick on me. I did have a few friends though, but that's few and far between, even now. The people who do get to know me well enough seem to have a good opinion of me, so I don't feel completely useless.
Lol don't worry about going out on tangents, I tend to do that often enough.
I don't know why people wouldn't be interested in getting to know you better, because I think that you are someone who is definitely worth knowing. I'm glad that you will try not to be so hard on yourself, there's enough hard things in the world already without feeling you need to beat yourself up too.
