I used to feel like this and yes at weddings in particular.
At some point I realized that I am not the only +1 at this wedding and somehow those other +1s aren't fucked up in their head about it.
Eventually you realize your agency. Like you can for example spot the other +1 and strike up a conversation.

I am perfectly capable of feeling lonely right through that entire super fun engaging conversation with strangers. Because a conversation doesn't scratch that same itch. Like eating potato chips when what you really need is steak.
- xyzelement 3y agoIt's not a good metaphor because a potato chips conversation can end up a steak conversation
- Swizec 3y agoSometimes yes sometimes no. Sometimes steak just isn't available, but you can have a great roast instead.
