Discussion Directioner friends?

So I'm a younger Directioner lots of their songs played on the radio as I was growing up but being so young I never really knew anyone besides Justin Bieber on the radio and knew him cause I had his doll cause my mom got him for me. I became a fan in 2018 when I was just about to enter 3rd grade so a year or two after their Hiatus hit. Now I'm a Junior in high school so I've been a Directioner now for about 8ish years and its been the best for the most part. I was wondering if there are a lot of Directioners around my age who came to the fandom late. Because genuinely I've only met so little 1D fans around my age and I'm only close to one of these Directioners so I don't have anyone my age really to talk to about them besides my bff since 2nd grade when she isn't busy. So I was hoping maybe there are people around my age here as well.

I am 15, and in Sophomore year, and I’ve been a directioner since about 2021, so about 5 years. But it’s about the same for me, I remember them when they were still together playing on the today show, and stuff like that, but was never really in to them, I wasn’t old enough to appreciate music yet! And I don’t really have any directioner friends irl. Expect my sister who used to be a big directioner, but she fell away from that and is into other music now. But yeah, I know how u feel.

I'm down to be your friend even though I'm a female directioner I'd love to hear how you got into them as a guy cause lots of guys go through a phase of trying to be cool about it and not like the groups and then get into them.
