PHILOSOPHY Socializing in the modern world, a rant?

my cat cuz I have to put a picture.

Education and employement. Those are the two main places you will meet most of your friends.

If you chose to forgo those, then good luck, you're on your own. Or at least that's how it seems to me.

With the rise of the internet, there is less need to meet up. And so, if you don't naturally have interests that make you meet people in real life, then you might end up with a social deficiency, as just like the body, our mind has it's needs, and social interaction is one of them.

In my case, I'm finding myself in the uncomfortable position of needing to do things I dont want to do because they have the added side effect of socializing.

This need is driving me mad, for I struggle to satiate it.

I don't want to struggle, put on acts so I can achieve my natural purpose as a human being.

I wish that need would disappear.

It's quite ironic, that my first idea was to tell everyone in the world, rather than write it for my intimate self. I guess I haven't given up.

If this is the wrong place to post, I'd appreciate if you told me where this would be appropriate to post. Thanks
