do you guys have online friends?
is it fun?

Having online friends is fucking pointless. Literally everyone is transient. Make friends irl and don't keep resetting the constant cycle of diappointment when people you meet online leave.

Having friends is a chore. Don't do it

I used to, but then I just didn't make the transfer from Skype to Discord. I go to church now.

hi grandpa!

>>81569606 (OP)
i do sometimes, but i get attached to them and then they leave me and make me feel bad

having friends is worth it but you need to be at the same level of success.

Fuck are you talking about online that would freak out someone irl?

>>81569649
That's "unc" to you, grandpa is a goal.

I like friends. anyone want to add on discord, get on vc, and play a (free) escape room puzzle game on steam right now?

>>81569668
can you actually be fully honest irl?

>>81569606 (OP)
no i dont. i may not have friends irl but online friends are just as shit cause i dont know how to talk to people, and im so dysfunctional that i cant put up with simply messaging people. its all too tiring and busy and thats if i can even get people to like me. and even tho im a retarded faggot, i cant stand retarded faggots.

ive interacted with thousands of people. Kept some with me, rolled through others, others rolled through me. Every person, every story.
I think its made me a better more empathetic man ultimately but after a while you realize they are just responses on a screen really. I still talk to a few that have been with me for nearly 20 years now though.

I mean, I am. I just don't say weird shit. Also, like, know who you can and can't talk about certain things with. Like reading a room, or whatever. I dunno. Basic social skill shit.

Yes. Yes. I met (some of) them in random group chats on kik when I (and most of them) were teenagers. I was ~13 then. I had a hiatus and didn't talk to them when I was like 18-20 and found out they migrated to pisscord when I went back to kik. From there I found a guy I remembered and he remembered me and he invited me to the group. I knew some of guys there when I joined but not everyone. Fairly active back then. Lot of guys, a few women. I only remember one with pale skin, dark hair and dark eyes.
Now I'm 24. There's like 5 or 6 guys that talk more than once a month. I talk the most haha. It's a place I can talk about anything and even if no one responds, I know someone out there is reading it and somewhat cares about my madness.
I feel closer to them than I do anyone IRL because they have seen me at my worst and my most vulnerable.
I appreciate them a lot. I love these guys who have never seen my face more than my family. I have never shown them my face/body or went to any IRL meet ups because whatever image they have of me on their minds is infinitely better than the real me desu.

>>81569790

I've had a few over the years, they were mostly transient though. One managed to visit me a few months ago by plane after we had talked for several years. It didn't turn out horribly, but we were not really compatible for IRL friends, which I really should've been able to predict. Sad!

>>81569606 (OP)

>>81569606 (OP)
