How the fuck do you cope with the fact you have no IRL friends
i cope by talking to gacha gaymers
Cutting myself mostly
DRugs, bbooze, sad music, long showers, cooking, deep isolation.
>>84524801The satisfaction that I was born a woman keeps me going
>>84524801I talk to my parents and extended family instead, like a midevil man.
>>84524890wow, feel the power.
>>84524801Drugs, burying myself in books and playing lots of RPGs. I'm fighting a losing battle but my copes help.
>>84524801Had no friends for a time but got to know people over many months through net spaces I visited for specific interests (rather than the main focus being just chatting) and I met people more forward than me who said we should hang out IRL. More of an invitation and seeing if I'd be willing, after they got to know me as someone who could be reasonable.But before I inadvertently put myself out there and friends kinda "found me", for years instead of dwelling on lack of friends I learned to enjoy the flexibility in my schedule compared to when I had to plan around activities with others. I decided to appreciate what I did have more fully.To fill some of that newfound space in my schedule I decided to learn new skill: art, game dev, preparation for emergencies. It then dawned on me that the end goal for a lot of these would be helped or even better achieved by learning to invest. Takes a lot of time to read up on a stock/crypto to assess whether it has a chance of increasing in value. But it's been rewarding. So I'd say learn something new until you're ready to put yourself out there among people, both online and even IRL. Aside from the usual spots, maybe you have a brewery near you, or a hobby shop where people gather for events. I only just discovered a local brewery and because I've been learning more about beer, I may find conversation and later friends there.
>>84524801I have my parents and they're close enough to friends.
>>84524801don't need friendsI pass the time playing with my pussy
>>84524801i thought i needed friends too, turns out that's just a physical need and i never ACTUALLY needed friends, they are highly ignorant or/and mentally abusive and friendships never last anyway
I used to be worse off I didn't even have online friends. I'm just glad I'm making progress
I am currently questioning cutting off my two friends of 4-5 years from back in highschool I think we've just reached this point of divergence where we dont laugh at the same things, dont have the same interests and dont have the same mental grounds to laugh or have fun over our differences. It just feels like a hassle.Im trying to get more into religion, to stop consuming poison in the form of internet, porn, lust, bitterness... I dont want to be ascetic but what was once a plan c or d for my life seems closer than ever. I never fit in within large groups ever in my life but religion gives me this grey area between community and personal cultivation. My friends want to go out more, pick up girls in the street, get a job and fuck off from here asap. They're mocking my now "modest" dressing choices and one of them seemed upset because id scare girls away ? As a joke ? I dont know. What i know is that jokes are half-truthsI dont even really care about leaving on good terms i just want to do it swiftlyOne of them has a bottle of perfume he borrowed from me. Once i get it back im just putting them on mute/ignore. No need to block
>>84525125Ico is a cute game. Yes, people can find a change to a more principled/modest way of life unappealing. But for people who first meet you when you're already that way, it's possible a number of them will appreciate your conduct. I've had good experiences with new acquaintances coming to realize I don't do perverted humor, somewhat mean teasing even if it can be funny, etc. In some cases this even lead to people thinking I'm one of if not the most level-headed person in a community and appreciate how that balances out those who are more crass and perverted. This good impression even turns into friendship at times where people reach out to me unexpectedly.
Fuck having friends. Solitudemaxx
>>84525067hairy pussy? originally
>>84524801>implying that's a bad thingFriends suck shit.
>>84525214why would I ever bother shaving
>>84524801i get through by making friends online and watching anime and playing vidya or talking about it with them or life in general
>>84524801I have never known anything different and it's actually harder to cope with having friends.
>>84525274>it's actually harder to cope with having friends.You're a retard
>>84524801i always find something to occupy my time. i don't know how long i will be able to keep it up. i am approaching middle age and i can feel myself slipping mentally.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZtjBnCmB6w
>>84524801I listen to podcasts that trick my brain into thinking I'm having a social interaction
>>84525067Stop samefagging and gtfo
>>84526131Except I didn't? lmao
>>84525125Did exsctly this with a group of friends I'd been close with for about 6 years for pretty much the exact same reason. I wanted to turn my life around and achieve my goals, they wanted to play games on discord all night. Haven't found any friends since then but I'm honestly happier alone
>>84525125same. im about to drop my old HS friends. I think they can sense it.
You kinda just stop caring at a point. Also I had no friends growing up so nothing really changed
>>84525650>You're a retardYou're a retard
There's no real need to cope, it's not like the clock stops ticking.You just do other things, accept that a lot of things will be duller without company you enjoy, switch to the things you can still enjoy solo like consooming or bothering strangers online
>>84524801I used to drink but sobered up for my waifu. First two weeks were pretty rough as I've used booze as a way to calm myself down when I got angry but my waifu coming back from the shadows keeps me from spiraling into chaos.
>>84524801I have a tulpa waifu
>>84524801Escapism and lots of sleep after my shitty job.
>>84524801They died anon. There was a group chat. It had me and my three best friends. They are all dead. How do I cope? Not very fuckin well, anon. It's hard to make friends at my age in these our current times.
