I Am a Misanthrope

I am not a full blown misanthrope as I don't live in a cave and can still tolerate certain human beings. But as I get older I find that the people whom I can tolerate seems to grow smaller and smaller. I simply do not, and will not...

i have been nearly forever its caused by a deep inbred cyncism.
Misanthropy is a general dislike, distrust, or hatred of the human species, or a disposition to dislike and/or distrust other people. The term is also applicable to those...

I hate being around strangers, so essentially everyone. My job as a truck driver allows me to deal with very few people. Mostly cash registersat gas stations and the employee at drop off/pick up points. I want to save enough to get a...

I am a recently self-discovered misanthrope, and it's a bit of a problem... But first, a bit about myself.
I absolutely detest the people who do drugs and drink constantly. Even the idea that anyone out there turns to altering their...

To all the Misanthropists out there. Firstly, yes it's hard living in a world, believing no one understands you... Sitting back idly in horror, as the mother nature is relentlessly tortured before our eyes. Watching these 'sheepeople...

I was just looking for "misanthrope community" on Google and guess what came up as the first hit? Damn right (this group).
I haven't been posting here a lot but this made me think that I should really take the time and look around here...

I've always thought that your personality is the product of the 5 people you spend the most time with and interact with the most. But recently I've lost most of those people, as I can't seem to carry on friendships past a certain point...

From the beginning of time there have always been a more knowledgeable and enlightened beings utilizing their knowledge to keep humans from their awakening... Humans desire negativity, because of how 'head figures' have structured...

I'm proud to be a misanthrope. I feel it's an enlightening, motivating, and positive state of mind. Therapy will try to convince you that it's "unhealthy" and that you should try to connect and form loving relationships with the outside...

If you are a misanthrope I created a chatroom for you. The link is http://www.chathour.com/chatroom/Misanthropist. Chat with other misanthropes about why you dislike other humans

I can't stand people. I dislike them very much, border-lining hate (if I'm not there already). They always disappoint and don't do what they say they are going to do. They only care about themselves (I have yet to meet someone outside...

I'm a misanthrope.  Like many misanthropes, I do not dislike EVERYBODY.  But my tendency is to dislike the vast majority of the "public." 
I do not care for "aquaintances."  Aquaintances bore me...

I'm a conditional Misanthrope.
There are some characteristics in people that I generally enjoy. For instance, if they're intelligent and wise, and use those assets, then they're on the good list. If they are nice and brave and do the...

If you are an honest, decent person it's very difficult not to be a misanthrope.  For me, misanthropy was not a choice, it was a simple, natural response to the way most people are, or at least seem to be.  I've seen and...

Warning: Angry rant ahead:
Know that these are just my opinions and that i merely generalize.
I've become more and more disgusted with people every day that passes. Their consumerism, vanity, their need to buy big houses just so they...

This is a question more than a story. Did any of you show misanthropic or loner tendencies from an early age? I am 46 years old and can remember that even as a child (pre-pubescent) I preferred the company of myself and had very few...

I've been a misanthrope since roughly 7 years old.  I was that odd kid down the street that was almost never seen outside, and who actively avoided playing with the other kids, usually out of a misunderstood (at the time) sense of...

I don't always get along with people, anti social perhaps. I have always enjoyed the company of animals more.

I hate people, plain and simple.

I am 22-years old and, while I try to maintain a normal social life and connect with other people, I can't help but feel so detached from humanity - like I'm viewing life through a dirty lens. I look at...
