I root for my friends, but it's hard since the ones who mattered are all abroad. I haven’t seen most school friends in a decade, and college friends since 2020—except one, who’s now in Australia. A relationship ended badly last year, and I haven’t had the energy to start another. I’ve made a few surface-level connections through running/cycling clubs, with one solid bond.
Feel bummed to keep rooting for other people, but no one is there that way for me, besides my parents.
Having a cat reall helps though.
- rez0123 1y agoHave you made any friends online? A ton of my friends are people I interact with almost exclusively on discord
- anshumankmr 1y agoNeed more time offline than online. Especially the past month or so where I have been at home mostly, prepping for an interview, doing nothing but Leetcoding, pretty much.
- anton-c 1y agoI've struggled to make any of those into one's where I'd DM the person if I was in a rough spot or felt I could count on them. You ever manage that? For a short time in the 2000s with my wow guild I did but that was different. It was always TeamSpeak so I felt I knew the person v discord(where i only voice chat with irl friends... so far) I'd love to be able to make that happen. Probably my own confidence is the issue.
