I met someone on discord last year, and I don’t quite have the words to describe the lead up. One minute we were gaming and the next minute I was in their apartment 1200 miles away, but like I said, the feelings were unreal and I can’t imagine ever finding anything like it again. Ngl a part of me feels like it will forever be pretty empty. Didn’t really scratch the surface of how much it meant to me but yeah, sometimes it’s hard to ever imagine moving on. Sucks

    I’m super late to all this since I haven’t really started, I do feel I’ve avoided this since I’m more chill now. I do feel left out a bit around couples but I can just dip without feeling bad no more that I’m letting anyone down. Also I don’t have to over worry about friends, they got partners to look after them and even then I’m usually kept at arms length anyway.

      Yeah I’ve thought about that a lot too, the whole looking at the situation as being a part of something greater. If nothing ever worked out, I would be just as happy and super chill if I were able to live communally with some pals because what I’m after is the community, but even that seems like a pipe dream the way the world is today

        Yeah it does bum me out some, maybe I just need to keep looking for people who want me around. I’m good at making quick friends as I been finding recently so I won’t give up hope it won’t happen just need to keep moving forward
