I would LOVE to be able to branch out, but as much as I’ve tried in my almost 30 years, it always ends as nothing but a wet fart. Most of the people who I do vibe with (and who tolerate me) exist in the form of potential romantic interests and it just doesn’t work out. I can’t find that “line” of platonicness and romance. From that perspective then, I guess it makes sense why my friendships/commections ceased formation in my adolescence. Doesn’t make it suck any less though lolololol

        This is what I did. Also a good way of finding out your friends take what you say to heart. I have only found one ML in the wild, the rest all being reasonable non-committed libs with good hearts, and lots of good conversations with mutual respect.

        My friends absolutely will not budge on their liberalism so I barely talk with them anymore.
