why is 'FICTIONAL MEN' a whole huge concept but there's literally no such thing as a 'FICTIONAL WOMAN'?

I had this doubt running in my mind always...

Like there is this "WHOLE FUCKING CONCEPT OF THE FICTIONAL MEN" for ex like Conrad fisher, Peter Kavinsky n many more for that matter

But, I haven't heard or there is no such thing called "FICTIONAL WOMAN"

Im curious to know is it bcz there's nothing a "FICTIONAL WOMAN" can do that a "REAL WOMAN" can't?

I'm officially hitting 'Ghost Mode' because college social life feels like a chore

Am I the only one who feels the pressure of having social burnout in the best years of my life.

For context, everyone says that the college life is the best time in ur life and make sure u hv ample amt of fun cause later u will be handling responsibility. N these r the only memories that u can cherish in your old age.

I hv genuinely tried my best to do everything like have a conversation with various ppl but it doesn't feel real or authentic, attend parties thats more like a job to me than of actually enjoying.

The fest FOMO is so bad that I get pressurised to look like im having the time of my life at clg fest for the Instagram story, while in reality all im doing is standing in the heat, tired of the crowd and the loud music

When did 'hanging out' become a chore? At what point did we stop being students and start being PR managers for our own lives?

All I can say is that's enough. I'm tired of the fakes and this FOMO. Im going on the 'ghost mode' up until finals, and honestly? NO regrets

Have you ever had a friend stay by your side even when everyone else was calling you names?

Have u ever being shamed or bullied in college just cause of ur depression but "I" was. I'm not here to talk abt that I just wanted to share abt my frnd she stood beside me in all my hardships. Ppl loved calling in names like she is psycho, better she would be in mental hospital, I feel uncomfortable when im near her, wt if I become crazy like her (as if its a communicable disease 🤷‍♀️)

Honestly, I asked my friend why is she still being a friend with me n asked her hasn't she heard the rumors abt me being a psychopath?

She said she doesn't care abt those stuffs n see knows the REAL ME (in genuinely glad that she is my best friend)

Just cause of these rumors even her name was stained as in being in friendship with a weirdo

I just wanted share this n ask the other redditers did they also experience some thing like this n are willing to share it

I thought joining the board for our dance club would be a great resume builder. Instead, I’m currently mediating a three-day argument over a rehearsal schedule and someone’s 'creative vision' for a 30-second transition.

​My fellow student leaders: what’s the most 'I can’t believe I’m dealing with this' moment you’ve had this semester? Make me feel less alone
