I don’t mean fully by yourself, but foster one on one connections and do things that fill you up outside of a friend group. I lost my whole friend group after college and it really wrecked me and continues to do so (not as much as before). Even when I was friends with them I felt that I was the odd one out. When you’re able to find friends outside of a group, you learn a lot about your own values and about who is really looking to connect. Try not to get discouraged !! <3

1. You are not alone. 2. Build up your self worth. So when you are engaging with your friends / other people they get to see the real authentic you. being comfortable with yourself takes time but its worth it. 3. If fear of losing someone is holding you back and you find that you're pretending to be someone you're not... try and be your full authentic self. if they reject you, they arent your ppl. 4. sometimes we are isolated for a small time so that we can be more comfortable spending time with alone and having fun doing it. one season of my life i learned how to knit. This is your chance to explore and try something new. You may meet your people in the process 💚🫂

I used to see myself as someone with very few friends and even made a little fetish out of the idea of being “a lonely guy.”  That may or may not have ever even been true. It’s likely I always had friends but romanticized the idea of not having them. Now, I see myself as someone with friends and while it can be overwhelming in moments, it’s preferable to loneliness or romanticizing loneliness. Having friends/community is also healthier I am told than being alone. So, make friends, enjoy them, cherish them.

Warning pointless rant to the internet void:
Ever since moving to college I don’t have my friends I did in highschool that mattered so much to me. It has been really hard to find people who want to actually stick with me through everything, do things with me, and hear what I have to say. I honestly always feel like a last resort here. Everyone will casually cancel plans or flake or ghost and I’m tired of it.

…not ☹️. For whatever reason I keep posting and then deleting my recs immediately. I’ve gotten shy on here. I used to be so bold. I don’t know what happened !!!

I’m currently in the back seat of my friend’s car listening to their future plans. It’s lowkey terrifying me. However….take this as your sign that you don’t have to know what you want. You’re not alone!!!
