I was just thinking there should be like a megathread for people looking for friends - operating in a similar way to the partner's thread. I think it would be really helpful to tell everyone a little about yourself too: like the basics of where you're from, how old you are, and your general interests, likes and dislikes, etc. Also if there is anything in particular you are looking for (for example, only wanting someone who has committed fully to CTB, or only wanting someone with similar gender ID, etc.)
I think if you said a bit about yourself, more people would respond. I'd offer to be your friend, but I know nothing about you and I'm generally not a very good friend to even people I like. I hope you found some good people to talk to.
