Or at least until some annoying extrovert decides to interrupt; "Oh, come on you two, lighten up, it's a party, why aren't you enjoying yourselves like everyone else?!" :wink:


I think that might have literally happened lol

Im struggling with this now as well. I feel lonely and dont have a social life and think about going to a bar to socialize cause there is nothing else to do where i live but i feel like the only people who would socialize with me would have ulterior motives and would not be genuinely interested in interacting with me in a nin physical way.

Doesn't the internet provide some relief from loneliness?
