People to me are fascinating, both as individuals and groups. As most who care a lick about me know, I'm a psychology major, and I've got a thing for sociology as well, so it may come as no surprise. I believe that humans are inherently good but extremely flawed. I really like to get to know them. I love learning about cultures and religions. I love learning about individuals and what makes them tick. People are amazing, and the more we understood each other, the better we'd get along I'm sure.

You're a psychology major?

I take a certain amusement in acting misanthropic. Though it's mostly (entirely) a defense mechanism. Also, I can get overwhelmed by too much socializing. Sadly, I think I've become increasingly wary of the sense of joy that can be inspired by humanity. I don't trust it as I once did :/

I'm sure a lot of it has to do with contentment in one's own life. Ideally, I want to be more engaged with people. At least in the abstract I like people.
