I need a personality. How do I develop a personality that's not just a fake mask? I don't have one, I desperately need one.
Anons, please help me. This is the only board with real people on it.
I need a personality. How do I develop a personality that's not just a fake mask? I don't have one...
Wear a persona long enough and it will become your new face.
You can't change your true self
You can't copycat a character
It's better to understand yourself better and try to have faith in your self
You have a person within with likes and wants, the strongest members of society actively refuse to wear a mask. Everyone is walking around with face masks. It's actually hard to find the few who aren't user. True power comes from self-understanding and self promotion. Become who you are user. I
You need to have a personality in the first place to "accept yourself", fuck off normalfags.
Just pretend to be the person you want to be and over time you'll become that person. In the end, everyone's wearing a mask more or less. You can never be true.
I've always just reverted to not having a personality the day after I tried this.
If you neee to "develop" it, you're already fake. Stay incel and keep bothering us to a minimum, alright?
What's wrong? Are you insecure?
But you already have a personality, one of an insecure douche that is constantly at odds with himself and is too lazy/dumb/depressed to exert any serious effort in self-discipline... and that's just what merely a single post of yours could convey.
I remember when people put in some effort and asked questions and insulted people based on their responses instead of guessing what might hurt someone. I did hit a nerve though by calling you insecure didn't I?
Hard to tell whether you're OP or not from that schizopost but I merely stated the truth of OP's situation, ugliness included. You can't have another personality, because you're not devoid of your own personality. You're not vacant, you're occupied. Delete your current personality and start from scratch, if it's a better personality that you crave.
Nigger what? Do you actually have schizophrenia? What the fuck does that mean? Speak English.
Just fucking lie it is so simple read what the other person says and lie to their face. Never forget your lies or it will bite you in the ass
You already have a developed personality, but you claim to "need a personality". Why? How?
I have this feel sometimes it feels sometimes that im no-one or other times i am too many different personas. I find the idea of a true self confusing, it got to the point where i change too much so had to cut off all my friends since i could keep my mask. The mask feeling is so horrible it just leaves u feeling lost. Do u have any persona's at all user? or have u ever had them?
*"could not keep up my mask"
Nigga just be yourself. Say the first thing that comes to your mind youll eventually get better through being comftorable with yourself.
What??? I don't. That's the fucking point you retard.
It all seeds from your principles, you spend time on here which means you've adopted a lot of principles that previously weren't there, a lot of Jow Forums and Jow Forums beliefs, those thoughts shape the decisions you make and your reaction to things, that's basically what your personality is. So If you feel as though you don't have a personality, my guess would be that it's probably because you are trying to honor principles that you truly don't care for.
Everything from the words people use (slang and the pronunciation of words like white) to what they choose to spend their time doing, is determined by their principles. Try making a list of principles to know where you stand, do some trimming, question and debate wether you really believe something or if you just believe it because people here believe it. I'm betting you feel a lack of personality within yourself because you're trying to fit in with internet people whose personalities or principles vastly vary, so you stay in a persona limbo, Hoping to not accidentally adopt a thought to act on that would alienate you from the group.
I've been doing so for my entire life. Every year I would change my facade. I would become almost a different person. Only this year I've realized that there's no escape for me. No matter how many masks i put on, I will always have no real personality. I will always remain a husk.
You can't not have a personality unless you are a vegetable who has been isolated from society and lived in a bubble
Just talk to as many people as often as you can you'll subconsciously develop the right personality
This is simp talk.
about what. Enlighten me
how does one even start a conversation?
If you have ever learned something new, you developed your personality
being a good conversationalist is not a personality trait its a skill, there are those who are inclined to being a good conversationalist but even fucking turbo autists can accomplish it if they can learn how
its not about "getting" a personality, its about learning to communicate effectively
>What??? I don't.
>the first line of OP is literally "I need a personality"
Pick one retard
>How do I develop a personality that's not just a fake mask?
The problem is that anti-Western thinkers have taught you - falsely - that you NEED a personality that is not a "fake mask".
Beginning with Rousseau, and passing up through Nietzsche and Sartre, western philosophers became obsessed with "authenticity". This eventually leaked into the culture as a whole, via art, but also (and much more destructively) through the pseudoscience and quackery of psychology.
"Authenticity", we were told, would solve our social problems and make our culture greater and make people happier and make their relationships better. And so we have pursued authenticity - "just be yourself" - over everything else.
And it has been a total failure. An absolute, unmitigated failure. It has achieved NONE of the things we were told it would achieve, but it's so firmly rooted in our thinking now that nobody questions it.
It's a disgrace. When people painstakingly created and then constantly wore social masks, we were better off by every cultural measure, and were happier and more "healthy" as well.
So create a fake self and then BE it, OP. Just do it. And don't let anyone tell you it's wrong.
t. i need personality
How do you accomplish this in the long term? It is utterly exhausting to maintain a mask like this. All of my energy is drained keeping my appearances up which makes actual work and even hobbies just about impossible. I have spent years thinking it was just practice I needed and I would eventually just build up my stamina but no, I can't do it. And beneath the mask is a very mean, sad, pathetic person who wants to hurt people because it feels good to relish in misery. I need a mask to function in public yet I can't function in public because of the mask. I am miserable when I go outside and I am miserable when I am alone. I am just... miserable, I suppose.
