I wouldn't even think about this too much, lest you go crazy trying to figure it out. Just do what you're doing.
Meh. You're probably right. Scrap everything I said

How come some people barely do anything and everyone loves them and flocks to them, but other people have to work really hard (but make it look like they're not working hard at all) to get people to like/take an interest in them? I don't get it. It's not only in real life I've noticed this, it's even on the Internet! Damn humans and their tricky social nuances...
Whatevah.
Huh?I suppose it could come off as desperate... But I'm not out to get everyone to like me. I have people who do like me, so that's good, haha. What I'm talking about is more like... when you start a new job, or join a new site, or group, or whatever. Most people would like to make friends there or at least have people to talk to, I would assume. But it seems you have to have "it" - whatever this elusive "it" is, I have yet to figure it out, maybe some sort of invisible magical magnetic quality... I do have friends - or friendish people - out there, but I still feel like I'm lacking "it". It isn't easy for me to make friends. It seems to take effort. I guess that's okay, but sometimes it leaves me feeling like I'm unlikeable... :idontknow:
Huh?
You're one of the most noticed and liked people on this site, as far as online goes.
Offline, well you were just talking about meeting some guy on your very first day and you're already thinking of exchanging contact info.
What am I missing here?
I seem to be at my most happiest in my own company. When I am around people often I feel absolutely miserable.

Same here.

There's this girl that I've been talking to.(An internet thing,But she lives in the same city,in the same state.)
I've "known" and liked her for a while now,But she never seemed interested in talking to me until recently,when she messaged me,and we've been talking every day since.
At first,I was excited...felt like I was in the goddamn twilight zone.
I was finally..maybe...getting somewhere with her.
I've gotten to know her ALOT more than I did before.
And my fondness for her had grown.
But we ended up in a conversation about past experiences with various things..And it made me realize that she has done SO MUCH in her life.
She's really quite incredible.
And me...It makes me kind of shy away from talking to her anymore.
It sounds ridiculous....But I feel that the fact that I've been a recluse hermit for the bulk of my 23 years,Who has done nearly nothing,makes me........inadequate for somebody like her.
I'm a loser..I need to sift through the trash heaps rather than shoot for the stars.
You know, I can relate all too well with this in regards to the girl I'm currently fond of, but I won't get into detail because this is about you.There's this girl that I've been talking to.(An internet thing,But she lives in the same city,in the same state.)

Actually, you need to strike the iron while it's hot. If she's interested, go for it. A girl like that will teach you a lot!

I will say this: she wants to chat to you, whether or not you have an interesting past. She may have done heaps with her life, but maybe she's just looking for a cool guy no matter what he is or how he got to where he is today. In case you haven't clicked on: you are that cool guy she's after.
Don't diminish your conversations because you know her past lifestyle - it's not really fair on her if she's interested and wants you to talk to her. You never know what could happen, so keep it up.
ImNotMyIllness is correct, too: she could teach you a thing or two, and that's absolutely a positive thing!
