      People dont know how to love each other anymore, you say you love someone, and they assume you want to be locked alone in a room with them for the rest of your lives

        This! I can love my hookup for a couple of hours and then love “the witcher 3 free remaster” the next day. I hate that “I love you” carry so many additional meanings.

      literally my thought. Also helps if you’re already in the habit of telling your friends you love them, which I HIGHLY recommend. It is extremely fulfilling.

        I had a friend who had friends. They were my friends, until I lost that friend, and went back to zero again

          Yep, that’s the serious problem you get if you’re letting someone else do the work of maintaining friendships. You gotta reach out to people yourself.

          How to meet those ppl in the first place? No idea, I got like 5 ppl I still know from college and I’m holding on to em for dear life.
