God bless those rare people who approach the outsiders

[sodaboi]

People giving you “that stare” when you try to hop in on a conversation is the most anxiety inducing thing ever...

[dailydanielle]

It hits different when you used to be be apart of that group.

[Arniqua]

People say being an outsider is actually a cool thing.. that you're special and you don't fit into basic groups. This all sounds kinda comforting but in reality sometimes I get tired of standing out.. tired of standing alone.

[fiona]

The comment section is literally the saddest thing in the world... yet so relatable...

[madelainebrown]

I kinda wish that all the introverted outsiders that are watching this right now can have like their own little group chat when they need to talk to someone

[priscaxchan]

7.5 billion people on Earth... yet I'm still all alone.

[Amaru]

22 years old now and never had someone I could call a friend

[kennedycoles]

Being an outsider and an introvert. Even when people talk to me I don’t know what to say so I just stay quite.

[bwapty]

It’s feels nice when someone approaches you when they know you feel lonely, even though they barely know you it shows that they care. I’m kind of that back up friend that people hang out with if they have no one else, or if they invite a group over. It always
feels nice to be noticed once in awhile.

[mxichelle]

Whenever I try to talk with other people in a conversation they always talk over me

[hopekitten]

The comment section is so depressing, we should all just get together and be friends.

[stuntgirl]

This video actually kind of made me want to cry. This was my entire life in high school

[jules]

I always feel like an outsider even when I’m with other people who consider me their friend, I just feel so disconnected from everyone and everything around me

[agneschuti]

The only person that knows your an outsider is you...not even family or friends.
It gets so lonely to the point you can't handle it anymore.
But always know that being outsider doesn't mean you will always be one.

[crismusflake]

Can I like, hug everyone in the comment section????

[headbanger]

"Outsider" are actually the special ones who don't fit into basic groups

[lillybillison]

People say "You dont talk much, huh?"
I HATE IT
Why should I talk to you when you just talk to me because you want to be politley?!

[maggiemcneeley]

i’m even an outsider to my closest friends. second choice group?🙋‍♀️

[chelsycostales]

Me: complains about being alone

Also me: turns down offers to hang out with people

*this is the problem with me ;)*
