I wanna be 'cool'. I get that I have to define it and pursue it myself, but I'm curious to know what's a cool person looks like to other people

here’s some traits of the coolest people I’ve met: - KIND: they take genuine interest in other people, always the one to make sure no one is left out and everyone they talk to feels valued and listened to etc - ARTISTIC: they clearly have a fully developed inner world, they are constantly consumed by some kind of artistic or creative endeavour - NERDY: they have odd little side quests they are always working on, lots of unconventional interests and hobbies. they also love talking about their interests openly, without any shame - WELL READ: they have in depth knowledge about very niche subjects - KNOW WHO THEY ARE: they know what they want and don’t follow crowds or need external validation. also! they usually have a defining style quirk, like only wearing one specific colour

also I’d say it’s less about how you look and more about how deeply you interact with the world around you - people who are truly curious and fascinated by life, and who are hungry to experience all that they can are always the coolest to me!!!

to me i think it comes down to having a strong sense of self. many things can contribute to this including being well read & articulate, having a strong sense of personal style (NOT just trends), and especially making art of any kind 🙂❤️

Everything gets a little cooler when you think everything is cool to begin with

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

Tbh I would say it comes down to that. SOME People feel a sense of superiority or pride with Liking obscure things I guess. My advice is to own it, and just enjoy what you like. Compared to other people I see on this app, as well as me growing up, I’m realizing that I am very basic and mainstream in my tastes and with what I like. Just have fun, who cares anyways?
