I don't like the way most people act nowadays and I'm conservative. Can you give advice so I can be more open?

I'm conservative. I don't like most people nowadays.


I don't like they way people act. I don't smoke. I don't drink. I don't party neither.


I don't like rude people or people who laugh at everything, or the jokes they make to others. Even tough I'm young (28) I don't like the way people my age act.


How can I be more open?


Can you give me some advice?I don't like the way most people act nowadays and I'm conservative. Can you give advice so I can be more open?
I've been that way my whole life. Don't change just to fit in. Just do things your way and ignore the things you don't like. Try to keep in mind that everyone has a different take on life and yours is no better or worse than anyone else's. Try to see the humor in some of the jokes you hear and the way people behave and you might change your mind about not liking what you see and hear. That doesn't mean you have to behave that way yourself, because more than likely you would be uncomfortable doing so, but it might make you a little more tolerant of others and able to enjoy life a little more.I don't like the way most people act nowadays and I'm conservative.

I'm going to say this as simply as I can; try not to focus so much on what you don't like, and find the positive aspects in what you disapprove of---- before jumping to conclusions.
Get out more often at least move outside your comfort zone and learn to desensitize a little,this may help....Otherwise it may come down to only socializing with like minded people and this may not be good in the long run
tell them way you feel them tell better person out ok listen your idea
dont change yourself to fit in with others. go out do what you like and find ppl more to your style. i really hate some of the loud mouths too. but i do find dumb stuff funny im a very laughy type of person i find pretty much anythin funny from intilectual jokes to just plain dumb stuff like jackass. im wiht you on the smokin and partyin i do drink once in a blue moon but not to the point that i get wobble just a few.





you dont need to change yourself or you will turn into what you hate.





try older ppl they tend to be more mature or find some responcible parents they tend to be more to your liking by the sounds
Don't change to be like them. I'm in the same boat. Do activites where you will meet others like you. A good start would be the John Birch Society (www.jbs.org). They have meet-ups growing all over the US. There are other meet-ups, also like the libertarian groups or Ron Paul groups.
Remember the simple statement in the Bible that says, ';Judge not, lest ye be judged.'; Rather than to sit rigidly with your ideas, listen to the ideas of others and realize that if everyone in the world believed exactly the same things, it would be a very boring place. Recognize that, unless they are hurting someone, they have as much right to do things their way as you do yours.





If neither of those work, then sit quietly and mock them to yourself, smug in the knowledge that you're better than them. Then, see which of you goes home alone.
Remember, don't sweat the petty stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff.





^^ Remember that everyone unique way of dealing with social situations is different, and if we were all quiet, uber-respectful, and humourless, we'd be Russians from about 20 years ago.





Now, if someone says something particularly derogatory, I would suggest perhaps either removing yourself from the room or bringing it up with them later. There's a difference between a little raucous and flat-out obnoxious, and it's not necessary for you to be uncomfortable all the time just so they can flap their jaws.





Hope that helped a little. Had to think about that one.


I would assume telling you ';Just Relax'; isn't going to cut it, anyway. XD
Follow your gut. You don't need to have a ton of friends, just a few really good ones. It sometimes takes awhile to find these special people.





Being more ';open'; may really mean you turn your cheek or don't listen to your instincts. I've had this happen and it was not a wonderful experience. I was trying to not be so judemental, more ';open'; and it was just not a pleasant experience for either people involved.
