Lack of personal space and caring about other's thoughts

Recommended Posts

Before beginning, I must recognize this is not much of a real problem, and I know there's millions of people in worse situations than mine. But, guess what? I can't stand anymore without expressing what I feel. I hate Facebook and other social media, so I'll leave this here.

 

I really need my own bedroom. Seriously.

 

I truly hate my little brother and his incredibly closed mind. I just can't draw anything when he can see me. Even though he's watching DBZ in his phone -like every kid nowadays- I just can't stand how he can turn his face to the computer screen and see what I'm doing. I have a lot of ideas to draw, but I can't do sh*t due to this bullsh*t. And I know, the worst part of all of this, it's my fault, since I shouldn't really care about his opinion, but there's some stupid part of me who just can't stop caring about what others will think of me. He mocks me for liking cartoons at 20 and states I'm a childish person while he and his friends still laugh everytime they mention sexual terms like penis and vagina, and while I'm always doing the house tasks when he just sit and play.

 

How this sick close minded society just can't f*cking stand you and your business, always telling you what you have to do, see, like, etc. is beyond me. How the DBZ fanboys (the good and decent DBZ fans should excuse me for generalizing, but it's true. It's an axiom, every single thing which gets extemely popular holds a large number of dumb people between its fans and followers) like to mock you for not liking their badass show, at the same time they love to break their bones trying to imitate their beloved characters. How they hold on those "mature" things to make themselves feel better. Happens with soccer and everything else that is largely appreciated by the masses.

 

I know I shouldn't give a f*ck about his opinion, but I do. I really do, and I can't just ignore him. In fact it's really hard for me to ignore things. And guess what? The little f*cker (my brother) is exactly the opposite. He doesn't give a f*ck if our parents are arguing or the country is f*cked up, he still listen to his music and watching DBZ without giving a f*ck about what happens outside his world. I can't be like that, I actually care a lot about what happens outside my world.

 

I need help. I want to draw, and I want to do it now. But the guy is there, waiting for me to leave the PC and keep playing BF3 with his "badass" friends.

Did you see the frightened ones? Did you hear the falling bombs? Did you ever wonder...

...why we had to run for shelter when the promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue sky?

I know your feel bro, its like the latest generation of kids was already born f*cked.

That being said, get a laptop, ask your mom for a room for yourself, get a room by yourself, when i was younger i switched to the unfinished stairs block of my house and lived there for close to four years.

Theres so many things you can do but the most important is learning to not give a f*ck, if you want to do ANYTHING that is worth doing, you need to give no f*cks about what other people thinks, its your only way out.

If it makes you feel better, your brother will have to grow up at some point, also hes your little brother, bully him, i bet you have a lot of hate inside, learn to be mean now,or youll never get too far. The world out there has meaner things than little brothers.

The fact he can criticise you for liking cartoons yet be a DBZ fanboy at the same time is highly hypocritical of him.

From what I notice, everyone thinks their opinion is good, even if it's mean and don't like opinions of others that they truly find odd because they think they know how things should be done. Remember Michael's trip from GTA V, "I always thought I was the good guy" thought the man who ends the life of other people.

The way I see it, you've got choices;

 

1) Learn to deal with it. OR

2) Fly the coop

 

At some point you're going to have to try accomplishing no.1 anyway, because there's almost always going to be some distraction or person up in your grill in some aspect of your life.

So, do you work or study or something? If you're 20 and just sitting around the house watching cartoons and drawing, then you have bigger issues.

 

Also, how younger is your brother? And why do you care so much what he thinks? It sounds to me like you just want an excuse to not try something because you fear failure. It's not him that is stopping you, it is you, as you said it already. Short of moving away, there's nothing really you can do other than grow a pair and do your thing.

 

 

I know I shouldn't give a f*ck about his opinion, but I do. I really do, and I can't just ignore him. In fact it's really hard for me to ignore things. And guess what? The little f*cker (my brother) is exactly the opposite. He doesn't give a f*ck if our parents are arguing or the country is f*cked up, he still listen to his music and watching DBZ without giving a f*ck about what happens outside his world. I can't be like that, I actually care a lot about what happens outside my world.

 

Yeah, cut out that act. No one cares for your "martyrdom", and it sounds like you just want to make yourself feel good by telling others that you care. You don't know what is going on someone else's mind, so how do you know he doesn't care about what happens outside his world?

And f*ck, what are you doing about it? So you care the country is f*cked, and then what? You care when your parents fight, and then what? You care what your little brother thinks, so you don't do the thing you wanna do because... of what? It's all nice and well that you care about the world. Well the world doesn't care about you. If there's something you can do to help, then do. If there's nothing you can do, then why kick yourself over it?

 

Seriously, stop with the angst and just get on with your life. Don't live for others; live for yourself. Or don't, I don't care, my life is awesome.

Maybe grow a pair and beat the sh*t out of him if he bugs you that much. Show him who is the older sibling. Don't tolerate sh*t from snot nosed little punks.

What is it that you like about cartoons that it becomes an issue when you are mocked about it?

The girls in Japanese cartoons gives him a stiffy.

Go to your local library if you need some space, or just take a walk. The best thing would probably be to move out. I mean, you're 20 years old, it's obvious you're going to feel stifled at home with bickering parents and an adolescent sibling.

No, No. According to all anime fans, "anime and cartoons are completely different and anime is totally not just Japanese cartoons, you uncultured swine."

 

Also: Kill the little guy.

Only cartoons I watch are Family Guy, American Dad, South Park, Boondocks, Beavis and Butt-head and Archer. Used to watch The Simpsons when I was wee, even that's all adult humour now if you watch it now a days.

You should either beat the living crap out of him or leave home.

 

In fact, do both. Not only will you stand-up to your little brother, you'll get your own space. It's win-win.

What're you drawing that you're so concerned about him seeing?

probably things of adult nature of course :p

 

 

But seriously, if there's another unoccupied room in the house, ask to have it. My brother and I had to share rooms before we moved a while ago since the house was small. But our age difference was not that great (only 2 years)

Kinda weird for a girl of your age to be sharing a room with her younger brother

 

i was amused way beyond what's appropriate by this. You might have just saved my inner 12 year old from choking to death on a butt plug of righteousness.
