it’s an extremely common condition
People don’t need proof to believe things. It’s easier to just believe anything you hear.
Spreading rumours is so easy. Getting rid of them can be damn near impossible though.
Sorry to hear about that KA. Seems this image is stirring up some proper bad feelings for quite a few people.
Why would they take HIS side? Have they hear any loud music?
I’mI’ve overheard the guy outside telling people about me. One of the apartment maintainers was openly suspicious of me, and I’ve gotten dirty stares from people afterwards. That’s why I have reason to believe people have been taking his side.
Oh, okay. I thought I read that YOU were transferred. Why were you “ostracized”?
No, they believed me, but because he also had a noise complaint, they could not do anything, even with a second witness. (In fact, I was the second witness; the neighbor downstairs to him called the police on him the first time I heard him doing that.) We’ve been building documentation on him, and I was about to stage a recording of him when tension got high enough the management finally transferred him.
And the cops didn’t believe you for some reason?
From what I was told by a policeman and what I could make out from his mad raving, he was complaining about a boombox. (I listen to all my music through my headphones.)
Ohh, okay.
Sooo, why did the old man keep blaming you for keeping him up? What did he say he was hearing?
I was unclear. It was actually one kid sitting with us, a group of adults, at a restaurant. But yeah, he seemed to be reading into my reaction when I was looking over to the mat and kid’s chair. I remarked earlier that I didn’t realize she was young enough to sit in a high chair like that; it threw me off-guard.
The irony being that said individual (wisely) makes it a point not to have kids. Hypocrite.
So, HE thought that YOU thought that the both of you having to share a cafeteria with small children was demeaning to the both of you?
That’s just it. I think he interpreted my glances to be demeaning toward kids being with us during lunch time, and he was saying I was worse than a kid at eating food or something. He immediately asked me to help distribute the utensils afterwards. Weirded the hell out of me.
Wait, why did your “friend” insult you for looking at where a child was going to sit?
Last year I went through several months straight being woken up every single night by mad banging on my walls who complained that I was making too much noise–even while I was sleeping. Complaints by me and his downstairs neighbor were overlooked, and I heard him yelling to others outside about me causing a racket–while I was trying to sleep in the kitchen to get away from him and avoid causing whatever the hell he was complaining about.
The police (yes, that bad) and my apartment manager did essentially nothing to help until he was finally transferred, and I have reason to believe I was ostracized due to him spreading rumors about me.
Incidentally, I heard music being played downstairs at that point. I still do. People simply assumed it was me. It’s fun being profiled!
I find people to be constantly impatient and very often outright bullish of me, in many situations. Several times in my life, I was criticized for having the gall to smile in public. I’m dead serious.
“Modern social anxiety” problems are an obvious product of a broken “modern” society, especially here in America. But blaming the victim is always easier.
By the by, a coworker today mentioned concerns that his daughter was becoming autistic because she forgot her birthday date. Tell me more about how social anxiety is a mockery of real medical problems!
(Disclosure: Therapists told me long ago that I do have actual anxiety-related issues.)
It’s not that simple if the person is anti-social or is afraid of talking to people. Don’t know about anyone else, but I’m kind of afraid I’m going to be told to fuck off the minute I open my mouth.
I know they say that if you’re scared of spiders, you should go find one and put it on your face. But you know what? I held a spider and it bit me. This method is a load of garbage! and now I have arachnophobia too.
You can’t understand the agony we go through trying to do something as simple as talking, because it makes no sense. Our fears are irrational, illogical. So of course you don’t get it. Neither do we! But these problems exist and we cannot just get rid of them.
If only we could.
This a million fucking times. Seriously.
