I just so badly want to feel like I belong sometimes. Usually I’m okay with being the odd one out, but today is not one of those days. I feel like an extra puzzle piece that doesn’t bloody fit anywhere. Acceptance is such a powerful thing. To be accepted for who you are is the warmest feeling - except love, of course.

If nostr was a town or city I would move there in a heartbeat ♥

Sorry, ignore this, just needed to vent. I will start using my diary more often I promise 🙏🏽 I’m just being a giant baby. I’m far too sensitive for my own good 🥲


We are here for you fren!
I deal with these emotions too.
You are stronger than you think!
You FIERCE!
💜🔥


Don’t apologize like that ever again. You are allowed to post your thoughts and feelings here, we are all plebs.

You are EXACTLY where you belong, here, with us.
🧡🫂🧡🔱


I think everyone knows the feeling you are describing. It's ok 🫂


I too feel like I was born an alien, probably common with the nostriches


You deserve all the good out there! Glad you vented, it needed to get out 😊
🫂

Thank you lovely Catty_McCatface 🥹♥🫂💜💜 you also deserve all the good wonderful things 🫂🫂🫂🫂🥹🙏🏽


Wow! Thank you for your words. I spent so many years trying to belong. To do what is expected. Believe me it doesn't work. Be proud of that, of the person you are. That is perfect. And everything else doesn't work anyway. Doesn't make you happy 🫂


I think we all feel a little disconnected at times. Loving yourself & discovering that the feeling of  disconnection is simply the unique parts of you making themselves prevalent is a wonderful antidote to feeling alone.


There there 'lil penguin. 'Tis ok. Feeling like you don't fit in sucks, but thats fine! You're now also free to be who you are BECAUSE you mightn't have fit in anyway!

The feeling of needing to belong is part of the human condition. It's realizing that you don't NEED to belong to be accepted that is freeing.
I've always told my kids that there is no such thing as normal because my normal and your normal and someone else's normal might be three different things. Learning to accept these differences as necessary in life is paramount. This is where we learn that belonging and being accepted are not the same. This is where we learn to be comfortable with our own company. When people see that you are happy and content to be yourself and be by yourself, they get curious. They want to know what you know.  Don't apologize for being human, friend. We all are. Just be the best human you can.


This is incredible 🫂 great words of wisdom!


Thank you 🙏🏽 I accept ALL the good and wonderful things 🫂🫂😘😘😘


no advice, just a 🫂 and a 💜


It’s okay to feel the way you do…sometimes we need to know that we matter and someone cares.  And we all need connection.  Sending you a big hug!


Well said sir


Your a amazing person ! Amazing does not always “fit in” people that have a deep interpersonal life will always have a feeling of not being accepted or not being seen, some time feeling like others don’t love you like you love them. This is why creativity to express your seeping feelings like art or poetry is very helpful.
I see you kid you just need to find who accepts you for who you are and be there.


Thank you TheRupertDamnit 🥹♥♥♥🫂 beautifully said 🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂💜 I’ll read this whenever I catch myself feeling blue about it again 🥹♥♥ you’re wonderful 🫂🫂🫂🫂


Wen nostr city 🥹🙏🏽🫂🧳


Hola 🫂


Hola ☺🫂


I'm sure that Bitcoin City will have a Nostr district.


You should be Mayor Derek, you’d be a brilliant Mayor 🫂


no thanks


Nostrtown.


I speak from experience. I spent so much of my younger years trying to fit into a box that I didn't realize that the box was a prison I was building for myself. It takes time and I'm not fully there yet, but you get comfortable with yourself. 🫂🫂


Thank you Prop 🥹🫂♥ you are completely right (and completely wonderful) 🫂🫂🫂 have used it to fuel creativity and shall keep it going 🫂🙏🏽

I will 🥹🫂🫂 hopefully 🙏🏽


Thank you lovely 🥹💜🙏🏽🫂 so sorry you ever felt that way too 🫂🫂

Sucks when people stare 😭 I don’t think I look that weird but as soon as I talk they look at me funny. Some days I don’t mind but it’s so confusing sometimes 🙏🏽

I relate completely 🙏🏽when I was in secondary school/high school I tried to fit in for a minute, but didn’t like the way it made me feel to suppress my personality. Stopped doing that straight and ended up alone for most of those school years but felt good knowing I was still me ♥🥹 still catch myself caring about belonging though 🙈 will work on it too 🥹🫂🫂🫂


Thank you Lisa 🫂🫂♥🥹 sending you a big hug back 🫂🫂 you have a wonderful heart 🙏🏽🫂


Thank you Harry 🥹🫂💜🙏🏽


How are you doing today?   Hope you’re well…sending peace to your soul and inspiration to your spirit…
