A chat on 4chan

I'm looking to make friends, I don't have any friends. I didn't go to uni and I just worked on my business growing up so now I literally have no one. 

But now in my mid 20s and with shitvid, honestly I don't know where to start.

I know this isn't satisfying, but honestly, merely being here is at least a step above being a hermit in the woods, if not more. After all, you're not completely alone.

But I get it, you'd ideally want something better.

If you just want friends, any kind of friends, just find a group or organization. Historically we met people through church and work. In lieu of that, there's probably something happening where you live.

Honestly though, online friends aren't so bad. What they lack in proximity they kind of make up for in closer shared values, just make sure you actually want those values and make sure that your friend isn't completely one-dimensional

Furthermore, get it in your head that people actually really want more friends, so they'd be eager to talk to you and be your friend if it turns out you're an alright guy.

It's actually pretty rational when you think about it. Unless they're Mr/Mrs Popular, they probably don't have as many friends as they'd like. This is especially true for men. You see it all the time in the news, that there's a loneliness epidemic among men, or whatever they're calling it.

Online friends definitely help, or an online community like this. I just miss that in person jokiness, that closeness, having someone who actually cares about you, not just someone you exchange messages with. I don't want a ton of friends, even just one more friend would be very nice.

My only good friend is my partner. In the new year I'll sign myself up to some new clubs and see what happens.
