No Emotion or Desires

[Ed]

see but ive gone to two parties since 8th grade, i have no desire to ever be at one with that many people
i'd rather spend time with my 2-3 close friends, or my girlfriend, than go to a place with tons of kids i dont know and never want to know

Exactly.
They were cool the first ones I went to. I used to go whenever I could.
But now I just realize there is no point tons of people I don't want to get know might as well just go to a friends or something

Empathy is for casuals. Also you might want to do a search on "nihilism".

Don't really see the fun in it
It's wasting money imo
Bungee jumping in queenstown
It's cool for 5 minutes then the occasional memory of it
but other than that I would rather save my money so I can spend it on someone else

I say that you have an evolutionary advantage!

Take your current situation: financial disaster, protests, riots, war, famine, all that sad fucked up shit. Everyday I learn more and more about this shit that goes on and it pisses me off to no end. You on the other hand can remain calm in the midst of the storm. Not only does this allow you to focus on whats important to you in your life, but you have the ability to think straight and unbiased.

I say good on ya mate!

Sure i'd love a good vacation
but what spending $10k each time noty
again if i'm gonna get a bit of money might as well save it for people who will appreciate it

If you were going to have a label it would be

Sociopathic

You're anti social, Don't care much about other people
However you still have morals and a feeling of responsibility

no one can appreciate your hard earned money more then yourself...

What's to appreciate about it
You're born, you got to school for 18/19 years
You go to university for another 3-6 years
You work until you become to old to do anything
You don't have a choice
Might as well make someone happy in all of this

Eh if you a sociopath, no biggie. Just don't murder anyone and leave a mess that can be traced back to you.

Quite honestly, I doubt it would be bipolar syndrome.
My theory is it's just puberty. I'm exactly the same, extremely apathetic. I only hold conversations with a few of my friends because they are pretty much the only people I find interesting. The others are talking to me and I feel like telling them to shut the fuck and do their work. I have so many little things that I hate people doing, and I tend to start hating people so easily - finding reasons to dislike them. I'm not exactly unhappy, because I'm a pretty joyful, easy going and calm person. But I can see where you're coming from in regards to an apathetic attitude. I. Don't. Care.

As for not wanting to hang out with friends I don't get that. I love hanging out with my friends, it's pretty much the only thing that's not boring too me. Everything else is just a giant drag. I like driving, because it's a challenge and it's fun. I don't care about the responsibility either, but it's fun too me.

You should definitely go to a psychiatrist if you are feeling this way for a prolonged time. Take some online tests as well, Google 'bipolar test' or 'social anxiety test'. I've taken them both and returned negative, so I have deducted that I am just an apathetic person.

To be honest, I'm the exact same way.

You're just going through adolescence.

i am entirely the same, like when steve jobs died, i could not give a shit, i would be like 'bad luck', i only have emotions/desire for close people, such as family/CLOSE friends/relatives. anyone besides that i couldn't give 2-shits about them. you are only 16, you are technically still 'young' (lets say), you have plenty to look forward too.

My mum once told me at different ages what i should care about, such as when i was 15/16 she told me to be on the look-out for a job, if you start early its a bonus ($$), you work your way up higher, better positions, i did that and im happy i did it. been making more money ever since, than if i started later. then when i got to 17/18 she began telling me to go for my license (australian road laws (dont ask) requirements), anywhoo, all of this was to know what purpose or sense of direction i had for myself. doing so expressed some or no emotions & desires, Some new sometimes nothing, but that all comes down to life. my dad tells me 'you get what you give'. you put in your hard efforts you get good rewards, and so on.

I too was anti-social, until i grew older and was able to understand people's personalities, what emotions i get from it, is it good or bad. you experiment y'know. i also went to a catholic school, and i didn't give a shit about the cross with your hands on your chest, or receiving communion, but in a way my religion found no need for that, which made me not give a shit and just go with it, sometimes i took it, sometimes i remained seated.

my opinion?, you are young and you are still learning/growing. ill give you a couple more years, and i betcha you can come back to this exact thread thinking 'what the fuck was i thinking back then'.

adios amigo

P.S welcome back!,
