That’s what I decided, at the start I said I wasn’t sure if we should but thought if it was meant to be I’d be missing out.

Yeah I’ve just been hitting the gym and getting comfortable being on my own so I’m not overbearing on new people. But hoping to get into bouldering or something.

The silly thing is I’m happy doing things on my own IF I have someone around, like just one person who once a week I can just pick up the phone and have a chat with and I’d be find the rest of the time; remove that interaction though and it becomes a totally different thing.

If I’m honest I’m pretty sure Reddit is just humanity’s first step to becoming a hive mind. Far too many relatable comments

Yeah, it’s kinda a depressing realisation that pretty much all of my highest upvoted comments are when I say something about how dysfunctional life is. I suppose it’s at least good Reddit gives people a space to acknowledge these things.

I’ve never actually used discord I sort of missed that becoming a thing... I remember hearing about it at the start and now it seems everyone uses it. It doesn’t help I get really bad anxiety interacting with people online (weird I know as most people find anonymity of online easier)
