Poor guy. You shouldn't have to feel worthy to have a friend. You shouldn't have to proove worth to have someone. But I guess it worked in his favor. I just hope people talking to him now don't only talk to him now because he's a star

[@0412lennon]

The loneliest feeling is feeling alone in a huge crowd

[@emiliaholmgren3702]

So relatable for people like me who suffer from social anxiety. It really describes the feeling you get when you are with your classmates or just a group of people but still feel lonely, weird and like an outsider because you have social anxiety and people think you are creepy because you aren't as social comfortable as the others..

[@jv5204]

yea, how i’m feeling right now. it feels like i have no connection with people. i’m so socially awkward and anxious. it sucks because i have no friends but then again when i do have a chance to make friends i chose not to. even tho it would be nice to have friends. i feel better off alone

[@Daniel_243]

@@jv5204 Same as me. I had some opportunities a year or two ago to make some friends that looking back I think I would've gotten on really well with. But I chose not to because I was so anxious and now I regret it because I've been incredibly lonely for about a year and a half. I don't know about you but I know I'll never be truly happy with no friends and being by myself.

Thanks for this relatable song. Sadly I'm not in the Slow Rush stage where I'm happy in eternal love. Stuck in lonerism

[@Switcheroo4542]

Don't envy people in the "slow rush" stage. They don't have perfect happy lives either, some of the songs on that album will tell you that if you look deeper. They simply learned a thing or two and are teaching themselves how to move on in their lives, and eventually you'll get there too

[@meh3083]

it is possible, my friend. I never thought it would happen to me. I'm not there yet, but certainly getting there. Believe in yourself and your potential to grow and become who you really want to be. I believe in you.

[@GuilhermeGuidugli]

I was in a "Slow Rush" stage last year and it was far from perfect, even though my loneliness was solved in that time. So don't put it in a pedestal. You'll feel better, "Eventually"

I started a job in the fall of 2012 . met a man named Steven who worked along with me in the same department. we bonded. anyway, long story short, I showed him this song (album really) and he really enjoyed it. we would get super stoned and I would play it. he would sing aloud even. we worked in the same department for 8 years. I no longer work with him but I recently found out about his passing. this song will always remind me of him. Thanks Tame Impala. RIP Stevie

[@thebiteof420]

For a while I thought this song was about being abandoned by people you were once close to and coping with that fact; hence “try to pretend that none of it happened.” I mean when you’re abandoned especially out of nowhere of course you’re going to think “why won’t they talk to me.” I guess I interpreted this song that way cause I’ve been there. I’ve been rejected, I’ve been ghosted, I’ve been abandoned. Turns out this song is about being a social outcast, which in of itself is righteous to feel sad about. Being lonely sucks, we are humans, social beings after all.

I see circles of conversation and their many intersections I see how distant I am from those lovely patterns Idk how else to describe it... they really don't need me, just as I don't need them.. I really thought I was happy.. I'm just a loser, driven mad by my own ceaseless demons

[@shanen.1541]

I've always had anxiety talking to people, even with family. Though I've significantly improved with being more present in conversations, that anxiety never goes away. This song easily takes me back to middle school, high school, and college. What I remember most was having this sense of envy that I couldn't converse as openly like most people. They seemed more relaxed and happy. I don't feel me like nearly as often now. Tame Impala captured that feeling well. Much appreciated 👍

[@loganbulmer]

Damn, this song really hits you hard when your recent girlfriend tells you she’s been pretending to love you for 3 weeks and proceeds to break up over text and not talk to you.... my whole future has changed... I thought I was happy.

[@mikeexits]

Man, what's up with some girls being so psychotic? It's like they dehumanize you in their minds and don't feel bad for absolutely destroying you emotionally. I had to comfort my best friend who was tripping balls on mushrooms when he got kicked out of his ex's house (he was visiting our state for vacation and staying with her) and broken up with over text (she convinced him he did something horribly wrong when he didn't) and he full-on sobbed/bawled for at least 2 hours, like scream-crying. I couldn't get a single complete sentence out of him for the whole time, it was honestly scary. I mean that's bad, but some of them take it way too far by trying to destroy their ex's entire life somehow. I've seen more than enough pictures of someone's apartment completely trashed up by their ex-girlfriend. Sometimes it genuinely makes me want to stay single forever.
