So, here's my problem.

I've always been a shy person, I never really made may friends and the fact was not helped by the issue of not going into private school until 7th grade and being forced to go through the Nether City School system. I also am at the top of my classes and grades come extremely easy to me. I 3D model, animate, program, draw, write, and play the piano among other thins and am a great self learner and excel in school.

Everything is going well, except...

I got caught into the ever present screwed up system of liking a person.

Social skills are the exact opposite of academics in my situation. Trying to even talk to a person, even if I know them, is like trying to climb Mount Everest, with a Borg Fusion Cube constantly trying to rip you into subatomic particles every step of the way. Its gotten to a point where I feel I can't even control it, or rather un-control it anymore as now there effectively a giant rulebook hardcoded into my head telling what and what not to do.

Now this is a problem because. even though for a time I was perfectly fine alone. Somehow some want for companionship broke through the gates of the so called impenetrable fortress of my mind, sparked the Russian Revolution, and left behind a entire ocean of depressive thoughts.

Theses thoughts led to a long period of time where I thought I could solve all the worlds problems by acquiring a lot of money like Bill Gates, using it to research military technologies, building a base in Antarctica and then leading a conquest of the world and leading a dictatorial regime where I limited the world to minimum diversity (Yes I thought of genociding my own race because I "knew" I was different and thought I was just trapped in a body until I used technology to fix it) and mind controlling everyone to pacify them and create world peace.

The idea still exists in a vastly modified and improved form I dubbed "Progressive Unitism" and before you ask, I saw nothing wrong with the matter beforehand, the genocide is gone now, but its still pretty Authoritarian.

I have an issue with not being stimulated, if I'm not working or writing or something, I think. And my thoughts are not inappropriate, nor are they violent slasher thoughts. They're revolutionary thoughts.

Yep I have a holographic Stalin who talks to me when I'm idle, no problem there. But only when I'm depressed do they come out.

Anyway ignoring that.

I share a few things in common with the person, and aided in reuniting them with a friend she had previously got into a argument with and was depressed (At least I think, I have problems with reading body languages or interpreting meanings, and am completely naive about anything not directly academic) for while. So yeah.

Currently I may, or may not be driving myself into a hole because she is a competitive person, and because of that an argument occurred which led to a "Whose _____ is better competition" which is currently stalemated.

So I ask the simple question of:

WHAT THE GRIEFING CREEPERS DO I DO?!?

PS: I do not know the orientation of the forum members here, but no, I'm interested in personality and not what anyone's dirty little mind may be hatching at them moment. Besides

My guess would be that this stumps the majority here. I'm hopeless with people myself, and spend my time in a lonely/irritated catch 22 with the world. I guess I'd work backwards from what your end goal might be. ie, what are you looking to accomplish? Is it a need for connection, or some competitive aspect that's bothering you?

Edit: World domination aside, I think you should try to pare it down to what's irking you. Could it be being challenged? A need for control? Once you laser in, I believe your problems might simplify themselves. :chin:

Well I like challenge, that's the thing. She is really the first person to ever challenge me and stay on my level, without pulling away or just trumping the whole thing unfairly, (Like kicking the winning player if your the host of a online game). Whats really bothering me is that I make what others think is the end of the world look like eating a sliver of cake. Yet trying to engage in a dinner where the table is already set is like climbing mount doom, with a thousand battlecruisers right on your tail.

I feel like I'm missing something very obvious, I just don't know what.

The WD thing was more of a need for something to channel my energy into, and for some odd reason I completely rebelled against my parents talk of injustice by putting in more injustice and then some.

IDK how the German Workers Party and Socialism got caught up in their though.

The ultimate challenge: social mastery. Totally off topic, but is Stalin a partner in crime? Lackey? Guide? Sorry, but it just got stuck in my head.

Back OT, welcome to the struggle. :shrug: Sometimes what's missing will slide into place when least expected, but usually active seeking renders it elusive.

What should you do... who cares? Just have a good time, get to know someone, learn some good social skills, don't invest too much emotionally. Also, whatever "competition" might mean, try to keep it friendly, not so much with the banning from an online game thing or whatever - I had a lot of trouble reading your peter griffin pausing family guy analogies :?

Peter Griffin family guy analogies? What exactly do you mean by that?
And yes, its a friendly competition, just a test of skills kind of thing.
Stalin was one of the 3 major communist leaders.

Its just stuck in the aquaitance/friend IDK confusing area.

So no one knows anything about this?

Your question isn't very clear. If I understand your question correctly, then no one can answer it for you.
