online alone

| as in, you don't have a community to attach yourself to. you know people. but people don't know you.

a lot of acquaintances. no real friends. but even then you don't talk to them much.

this was me from 2015 - 2017. i won't get into specifics for privacy but being someone that NEVER talked with anyone irl i became active on multiple forums. everything after that just naturally fell into place. i'm contributing to a few projects online now. i'm active in sharing what i like.


| but i still don't have anyone i'd really call a friend. i'm still at a low stage in socializing online. but it's better than what i was before.

i guess this is a win? just felt like sayin some shit.


| i'm active in twitch communities. i use twitter. whenever someone follows me i remove them as a follower. i don't know why but it's def from something that widens the gap in the process of making true friends online. or in general niggas you fw to be simple.

anxiety? bro i don't even know. how the fuck could i explain this. does anyone get what i mean or somewhat relate to my post?


| yeah i get you 100%. i actually used to be better at online stuff but then online society moved on without me and now everybody is hanging out on discord or matrix or whatever and i can't find a way to participate. whenever i say sth it feels like that aunt that you invited for thanksgiving out of social obligation but would really rather she never accepted it
but even if i somehow find my way into someones dms they either lose interest fast or keep me around to fuck with me later.


| anyway
*hugs*
you're gonna make it, you autistic son of a bitch


| I think I am in the same situation. I was homeschooled and had no physical social outlet. I ended up talking to a lot of people online throughout high school, but I found that I didnt have a lot in common with anyone. I felt very isolated.


| i am also very much in that same boat, only somewhat recently got back into it through bowling but still very much an isolated person around everyone else.

slowly and slowly i'm only talking to my family and it's sometimes annoying.

either way, where there's a will, there's a way.


| lol


| >i use twitter.
stopped reading right here.
seek help because you ain't gonna get out of the quicksand alone like this


| Run home to mama


| >>940916 twitter is dog shit but i think a lot of people exaggerate*. it's pretty easy to mediate my feed from all the garbage on that site.

* to a certain extent.


| actually fuck no what am i saying. it is not exaggerated, twitter IS a terrible site.


| Does anyone else here feel like they had no connection to their peers?


| >>940978 like, irl


| Elona.


| >>940978 i feel that i am incredibly disconnected with my peers irl, though it's by virtue of me not opening myself up as much as i do anymore. They have their own nice little lives while i still feel like I don't belong anywhere, but I chalk that up as me being a little bitch.


| >>940978
I used to when I was younger but in my 20s or so I started opening up more and found my true peers. Before that I felt like I had to dumb myself down or talk about stuff I didn't care about in order to connect with anyone and honestly that kinda sucked.


| I actually like being mostly alone?
Being around people can be nice, and I have a small friendgroup of 3-5 online, and that's enough for me?
Sure, I used to have emotional breakdowns from loneliness evey few years, butit was only, like, 3 days a year, so not too bad I guess.
