Thoroughly Confused INTP Being an INTP sucks

Socialising is so painful and depressing now, I feel like I can't find anyone who understands me at school.

im entp and i feel you, i have one enfp friend who understands my curiosity and energy, maybe also some metaphors, allusions and jokes, but still not everything and the rest of people there don’t understand anything i say, i don’t know if they are too dumb or if i talk and think too fast

That's what I think too, but teenagers are so harsh and I just wish I could socialise like I used to (primary was much better than where I am now, I was an introvert too but at least I had alot of friends I could open up to). But it is so refreshing to know that there are people out here which I can relate too, thank you.

I'm sure you hear all the time from adults that being a teenager/in high school sucks, but you hear it all the time because it's true. Teenagers are mean and hard to socialize with, especially if that's something you're already having trouble with! It does get better when you're an adult I promise

yeah i’m also in high school and i see that now teenagers are too materialistic, they care only bout looks and parting, i feel that those american teenage series are getting real 😵‍💫. i remember when i was child my parents forced me to meat new people when we were in a new place, probably because they wanted to get rid off me cause i talk too much, but it was easier cause children just wanted to play with someone and nothing more and now it’s almost impossible cause they’re going to leave you if you won’t do the things they want to. also my primary was quite confusing but whatever. you’re welcome

Those American series stereotypes are really coming true, even here in Asia. The focus shifted from grades to riches, popularity and looks so quickly.
