Discussion Peer pressure vs the real you

[Hoppipolla]

I realised just now that my social life has a significant influence on many things I do. Even the things I wear or use in my life or things like that.

However now my social life is much quieter, it's like I'm becoming closer to the real me, but is it really worth it? Maybe some sacrifices are OK for the enjoyment of a good social life.

No such thing as peer pressure, as I don't have a social life whatsoever

There aren't much peers to pressure me but if I was more social I'd stay true to myself

It's not peer pressure. If I say how I really feel about people, I will be murdered, arrested, etc...

Not close enough to the real me because if i was real with my few irl friends i would be left to rot. But i still mostly don't care, i just don't go the extra mile that would get me friendless.

The real me, since i have no irl social life

I do whatever won't land me in trouble, other than that I have nothing to win by trying to fit in with others.

I find that when I have a social life I try to look "cool", lol

When I don't, I just buy whatever looks nice and don't worry about it.

As a subhuman, there's no point in trying to adjust to normie's expectations, because it's over regardless.
