I need to find someone like me.
\nClarification<\/b>: Finding someone LIKE me does NOT mean I want to find someone like me so I can totally make out with them. I mean, I’m not even talking about girls, necessarily. I want to find someone who is “like” me so I can see what they’re doing with their life.
\nSomeone who is like me would comprise of:<\/p>\n

  • Someone who has crossed, or hasn’t crossed, the same boundaries I have, or haven’t. Substance-wise, relationship-wise, emotion-wise.\n
  • Tied to the first point, someone who is neutral in many respects. I don’t become super depressed, nor do I become super happy.\n
  • Someone who takes life easily. Someone who isn’t swayed by basically any events – simply goes through them.\n
  • Someone who’s been through the same family situation as I have. Constant moving, and large relationship differences between parents.\n
  • Someone who’s interested in the same things I am. Internet, hardware, BEMANI, writing, languages, my kinds of music, the whole shebang. You know, my LJ interests basically.\n
  • Someone who has some of the same talents as I do. Musically, artistically. They’d have the same viewpoint about their talents as I do.\n
  • Someone who strives to be social, although tends to be introverted. It’s not that they can’t thrive in a social environment, it’s that they often choose not to.\n
  • Someone who has the same thoughts as I do. Someone who’d find it interesting to meet someone like them. Someone existential, atheist, due to the same reasons I am.
    \nThis is not because I want to be best buds with them. Indeed, I find a lot of my own traits reprehensible, and I’m not sure if we’d get along. I simply want to know if there IS someone out there like that. OKCupid sorta tries a bit to match people up with similar personalities, but it doesn’t really feel like the same sort of thing to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
