Difficulty Making Friends

[KevinMao133]

I never caught covid and I took no precautions like wearing a mask and constantly washing my hands.

Also, it was the rules of people wearing masks and social distancing that made me nearly lose it. I was on seven medications and gained over 50 lbs. because I could not socialize in person and see people's faces.

I also never caught Covid and never will. Like you I also don’t wear masks and I don’t care wearing masks

I’m too good to catch that **** anyways. plus I just starting to pick up my workout routines, going back to that lifestyle and focusing on the present, thus helping me to relax

I have the opposite problem, I always make too many friends and I can't cope with them all the time. I tend to be a very talkative person though.

When I moved down to Adelaide 3 years ago I made a conscious decision that life would be a lot easier if I simply didn't have any friends and I've stuck to that so far. That will change again in the future but for now having my world to myself with no distractions is pleasant.

Me too honestly <3 I may have a secluded life style or past as well, but I am often quite happy on my own especially when I get creative ideas and go through with them And going out, doing things by myself etc.

I find it hard to make friends who are the same age as me. I have tried to make friends who are similar in age, but they’ve never stuck around. I find it hard to make a personal connection with them and find things that we share in common. I end up slowly distancing myself from them because I feel like an outcast.

On the other hand, I tend to get along with people who are older than me. I met a friend while playing an online game during the pandemic. We share a lot of things in common and can relate to one another. It feels like we have know each other for years. My parents are the same way. I feel very connected to them and they make me feel happy and understood.

I don’t know why I’m like this it’s just what happens. I think it has something to do with being an old souls or being the only child. It could be both possibilities too.

Same, I'm an only child and an old soul too <3 I get along swimingly well with my family because I understand my rules! And I love them. I may feel annoyed by them at times but I love them unconditionally. They are the real reliable ones at the moment, they give me good advice.

I wish I was more like that. I do the opposite I like to wait for the person to talk to me first to give me the indication that they want to talk to me. I tend to not start the conversation because I feel like I’m annoying or bugging the person.

Same, whoa that really hit the relatable spot 0-0 I've only been starting conversations for like a year or two tops since I've started finally learning and practicing social skills
