I LOVE ONLINE FRIENDSHIPS

[angpagsulatnihoney]

Message to my younger self

Dear Younger Self,

Be ready for the life you are about embrace. Embrace you mistakes, your imperfection. I am sorry the things that I have done to people that I valued the most.

Chase your dreams. Embark, take a risk to restart a new life. Never stop chasing your inner voice no matter how hard it is. Don't let anyone put you down and manipulate you even at the your lowest point in life.

Trust yourself and nobody can do that for you, you yourself.

Honey

Ok hear me out I have this friend I found on X last year and it was like friendship at first text we went along so well and felt comfortable w/ each other

We exchange our phone number and continued to talk, even about personal issues.

At one point, they started to ghost me. I wrote 1/2 times but I never got a reply.

They answered me after 2/3 months and I understood because I knew they had issue with depression and other private matters and I told that l, since I also have trust issue due to some traumas, felt bad because I thought I was some replaceable friend but I also understood because of their situation.

I missed them as a friend and I wanted to pursue our friendship.

They told me that, should there be another situation like this, they would have told me so I didn't feel this bad.

But now the situation is the same.

I sent the last message and never got a reply, like last time.

I know that it might be a difficult situation from their part, but I also feel bad for me because I miss them and I'd like to talk to them, but I also don't know if I want to continue like this, because I know that I will suffer

Me and @idk2085 did an art collab together based on this base :D

I did an Earth sandwitch today

A really good friend of mine and my first online friend ever sent me a video off Spotlight this morning. It was the first thing I saw after waking up. AND I WAS MIND BLOWN.

“Can we do it??”

“Yeah imma go grab some bread rn”

And he placed his piece of bread down on the floor in his house in Australia, and I placed MINE on the floor in my house on the COMPLETE other side of the globe. We sent each other pictures as proof and that’s the story of how I and my Australian bestie made an Earth sandwitch, as for me that was the first thing I did in the morning.

Felt like a really good start of the day XD

“If I had to define friendship, I would speak of us. I would speak of how, despite the miles that separate us, we’ve found a connection that feels like home.

When we talk it’s as if time stands still and the world fades away as we dive into conversations that reveal the deepest parts of who we are. We’ve shared our cultures, our beliefs, our dreams and in doing so, we’ve built something unbreakable. I will treasure these moments, and in every universe, I hope we are bound by the same closeness. I will never regret this, never regret us.”

I'm trying to make some new friends :)) if anyone reads this and is interested please feel free to send me a message!

Hey there everyone!!

I'm not sure how to start describing myself, I'm not great with words but I'll try my best.

(I'm so sorry for the extremely long post ahead!)

I think some of my most defining characteristics are that I'm very shy, awkward, "weird" and "different" or at the very least I feel weird, different and often misunderstood.

I'm unfortunately not very smart, I'd say I'm down right stupid lol

I am very ignorant about many things in life, I'd say I'm somewhat innocent and naive. I still don't understand my purpose in life and I haven't found a reason to be alive either.

I sometimes say things that offend people or I say things that are wrong. Sometimes I don't completely understand what I do wrong but I don't do it on purpose and I try to improve to the best of my abilities.

I don't go out often at all. Whenever I do go out it's only to buy groceries and such but I don't enjoy it, I much rather be at home, in my room most specifically, which is my favorite place in the world.

I don't have any IRL friends but I do have a handful of online friends, I'm not particularly close to any of them tho.

I enjoy many things like sculpting for instance! I do digital sculpting for fun. I'm pretty bad at it but I try my best. There are many things I'd like to create and I hope to make those things a reality in the near future!

I like to watch anime! my favorites change from time to time but I really like Jujutsu Kaisen, My Hero Academia, Dragon Ball, Demon Slayer, Ancient Magus Bride (I really love this show!) among many others!

I like to collect action figures.

I really like masks!

I love movies and I love to talk about them and analyze them.

I like all kinds of music, I don't really have any artists that I like in particular other than David Bowie and Violent Vira but I'm always happy and open to new suggestions!

I like to scroll through TikTok and to watch long essay style videos on YouTube about random topics.

I love video games!! I don't play too many modern games, I mostly prefer older stuff, like, ps2 era games, particularly survival horror stuff. I also really like very old platform games and side scrollers but I'd be open to play anything and I'd love to try co op games since I never played anything online with anyone and it looks super fun and I'd love to try it!! playing Stardew Valley with a friend is a dream of mine lol (if you also play Stardew please tell me who's your wife/husband)

I adore animals!! I have cats and dogs and they're my babies and my world!

I think it's important to mention some of the things I don't like too.

I don't like cruelty or mean spirited people, I hate big companies, billionaires, politicians and other people in positions of power that use their money and power to affect people, animals, or the environment for their own gain.

I don't like injustices, I hate racists, homophobic people, transphobic people, sexists, and all kinds of discrimination in general.

I hate bugs!! I'm deadly afraid of them 😖

I really dislike conflict and arguments, I believe we can disagree and have discussions as long as we're calm and civilized about it and as long as we have respect for each other and try our best to understand the other person's point of view.

lastly I'd like to mention some of my defects and shortcomings.

I'm extremely anxious, I'm always very nervous about one thing or another, I'm also extremely weak of mind, I tend to react with my feelings a lot and I'm often very emotional.

I can be very selfish at times, I have an awful tendency to get bored of things quickly and sometimes I also get bored of conversations and people.

I think I'm immature.

I can be extremely lazy, I struggle a lot with doing basic things like cleaning or cooking. when I'm anxious or afraid I can get paralyzed with fear and stay in bed all day doing nothing feeling awful about it.

As I mentioned before sometimes I can say bad things without realizing. I'm very dumb and ignorant so I promise I don't mean anything bad I say and I'm trying to improve!

I am extremely annoying. I'm very loud and I think I scream a lot. I don't really understand what constitutes screaming exactly but I think I often raise my voice a lot and especially when I'm excited I can't control myself very well.

I'm very afraid of life and I don't understand how the "real world" works exactly. I'm really bad at small talk and I think I'm really bad at speaking in general, I also digress a lot.

I have the bad habit of not replying very fast, sometimes I'll even wait for weeks or even months, I think it's one of my biggest problems when it comes to keep in touch with people, sometimes it's simply because I don't have the energy, other times it's because I'm not sure about how to continue a conversation. Not sure if this is a defect necessarily but I also never send the first message, I just hate to be annoying.

I'm full of defects in general, and I do believe I'm a bad person. I try to improve and I try my best but if I'm bad for you in any way or a burden I promise to stop talking to you and not bother you!

I have many other defects but I think those are the main ones I can remember right now.

Finally what I'm looking for is a real connection with someone, a person I can talk to, have fun with, watch stuff with and play games together and such! just be able to share our days and even be able to help each other and be there when we need each other. I know I'm a mess of a human being and I may never find the connection I'm looking for but I'd like to give it a try cause you never know :)

I have Instagram, discord and twitter as social media if it's more comfortable to talk there. I also think I prefer audio messages, it's easier for me to send audio notes rather than to type cause I type a lot 😅 thank you very much to anyone that has taken the time to read my extremely long post and considers messaging me!!

I know this is incredibly stupid, but does anyone else feel guilty when you learn that that an online friend isn't feeling well, but you can't respond to them right away because of work or something else?

[burntblueberrywaffles]

Online friends I love you so so much everytime we have a nice interaction im giggling and kicking my feet about it, sometimes I think about you and my heart explodes in my chest 🥺🥺🥰🥰

[queer-reader-07]

long distance online friendships suck for a lot of reasons because like actually i should be able to hug you but the one benefit is getting all the updates on the petty drama of your friend's life because they need to tell someone who doesn't know who these people are irl

[fuckwhoeverpickedallthefunnyurls]

Having internet friendships is so crazy you meet someone online not even one year later you promise you‘ll learn their native language for them

[yearning4life]
