Hiya there I guess I joined too to make friends, there hard to come by these days, does anybody feel covid put pay to many of our intrinsic values and we have regressed somewhat ? No sense of community or anything ? I guess I would love a friend to talk to, to confide in, have dialogue with, feel heard and appreciated, to feel important again, even if its to only to a handful of people, that I will never know irl, perhaps it is quality over quantity anyhoo, what you guys think ?, gender is unimportant, just to converse, just to feel heard for a change, if anybody would like a friend I am a good listener too, or so I am told, and could let you vent about any issues you may have and need getting off your chest, anyways thanks again, I will stop posting for a bit now, so as to let others post too, as I still a newb lol, and getting used to the site, I feel a friend could help wonders, as we are each struggling I think it fair to say, but i would love an online buddy, more than anything, take care 👍

What sort of interests do you have? It might help if you have something to connect with, although being here is often enough connection on its own. Do you have the possibility to make friends in real life? I think that would help a lot. I hate what covid has done, I have some controversial opinions on that subject so I try not to talk about it much. I do think it is very complicated though, it seems more like society was in a certain state already primed and then covid came along and it was like adding fuel to a fire.

I dont rly get out mate, and am somewhat of a hermit truth be told, interests wise I used to enjoy sports and participating, was a decent cross country athlete as a young man, was quite social and then depression struck and I isolated myself, its hard to meet people when you dont rly put yourself out there, I do fear people too, they can be quite scary and unpredictable or maybe it just my anxiety, I dont know I am on several other sites like anxiety.org etc, I met a pal off there but then he ghosted me at random, I have a gf too but she seldom opens up to me, we on/off at best, half the time I dont know where I stand, I also have kids I dont see at present tho u am looking into changing that and going legal route to do it, the kids I have i am estranged from, multiple bereavements also so no support structure in place, Al in Al pretty depressing throw in mental health, and the lack of concern by mental health providers and I am out of ideas, and at a loss, how about you buddy how are you doing ? Do you have any interests or hobbies you would like to talk about ? Anything you like doing in your spare time ? Thanks for responding buds, I wanted to respond as quick as I could, as soon as I saw the notification, how is your life going buddy do you feel content or no rly ? I am prepared to listen if ever you fancy a natter
I agree with everything you said there mate, hit the nail on the head about everything, very well said

I'm just off to sleep now. I used to run a lot myself, and still do. Sorry about all your current circumstances. I'm in the UK too so know what a nightmare the health services can be, I have quite a complicated story but I'm doing very well now, would be happy to chat to you some more if you would like too. I use discord if it helps, I can pm you details. Good night for now
