Where do people find /lit/ friends? Please note I am not

by working on yourself and everything that entails

>>9735540
Your local American Humanist Association chapter. Or try a writing workshop.

If picture related are the typical /lit/erary types I rather stick with my 'plebian' friends, at least they are funny

>>9735540
Open mics, book readings, used bookshops, tinder, whiskey bars, on cold beaches at dawn, Uber pools in the middle of the night, airport bathrooms, libraries, hiking trails, protests, OkCupid, lying on subway tracks, the quiet guy at work who never leaves his desk, weddings, funerals, coffee shops, antique stores, garage sales, brothels, Supermarkets.

creative writing club my man. I'm autistic too but luckily they were also autistic and I actually managed to convince them I was a cool normie who was also deep and intelligent and totally not a chantard pothead who had never had a gf.

>>9735930
Same, but it's not like I made any non-/lit/ friends either

>>9735540
where you at?

>>9735923
I once met a lit girl on Bumble, but she wanted sex from me, and I saw all of her innocence bleed out of her wound.

>>9735540
I went to uni and made no /lit/ (or non-/lit/) friends. Now have a job and feel very alone. Life, eh.
If anyone here is interested in an online writing circle or whatever just reply to this. Or if you're in SE england we can meet potentially.

As apposed to what? A person who is obsessed with asceticism and not talking to people?

To engage with other people requires you to create a persona for yourself. Nothing wrong with being concerned about your appearance.

>humanism

it's impossible unless you're upper class and good looking and therefore are able to go to an elite university and attract people.

Trust me, you do not want literary friends. Just trust me, you do NOT want literary friends.

It's not like the movies. The biopics. It's not like the books. You're much better off with your construction worker best friend or salesman friend or banker friend or anyone other than literary type friend.

Writer types are meant to hang out with each other for no more than a long weekend, at most. Save it for the conferences, and the society banquets, and the fundraisers.

Their paths are meant to cross but briefly and then go their separate ways, back out into the world to observe.

I have lit friends. Okay one, but I love her to bits, but we seldom talk about literature and mostly crack stupid jokes and ideas for shows wed like, we'll sneak some obscure lit references in there but its not the base of our friendship.

You should see a shrink so you can work through your madonna-whore complex and have an adult relationship one day. Best of luck.

>>9736981
That is precisely my issue. I'm not sure how a shrink would help though. The last two didn't do shit.

>>9735540

I had one /lit/ friend: well-read, intelligent, employed(makes a ton of money), and also a big asshole. Eventually, I stopped talking to him because he'd make fun of me. I don't know, I'd rather have a non-/lit/ friend than some pretentious dick.

Competing with other smart people outside the web sucks. Much better to have dumb friends and be the smart person of the group.

i came here to say this. i graduated a month ago and my most /lit/ friend was a girl that had read notes from the underground and "heard about" zizek, another one was one of those seize-the-day-nihilist girls who was trying to read cioran thinking he sounded cool and 'real'. i dated her for about two months until i realized she was a shallow girl though.

What kind of an anime-loving faggot are you, adult women aren't tsundere

Went to university, I hated everyone. Dropped out, got an apartment and partied in a city where I learned that humans overall just suck. I'm out and not totally dejected because my new friends are on my bookshelf. Without literature, I'd be dead. Used to be sexually active but now, I loathe sex and women entirely. Embrace what seems like antisocial behavior, transcend this terrible simian race, because once you dive back into it, they'll never understand you. In fact, normies will hate you and consider your presence a burden because you don't laugh at stupid jokes, you can't stand astrology, popular music is murder of the eardrums, and vice is not the same to you as it is to them. Drinking isn't social, weed isn't social, but for normies it is.

np, is the fighting game scene that bad in germany? I hear it is decent in the UK and France but I've never heard anything about fightan games in germany...

>>9741547
There is a scene I think, but only in the big cities. I tried looking for locals around where I live online but to no avail. The only time I ever saw people play fighting games IRL was during GamesCom. Hopefully someone at the university I'm going to is into them. In Germany most people only play LoL, FiFa and [steam FOTM game].

>>9736867
/r/books is thatway

*points to r/books*

*starts wooting*

Just pretend that all your conversations on /lit/ are with the same handful of people, give them affectionate nicknames and wa la, friends.

>>9743511
Upboats? Tanks.

Where's your nearest University? Look at the available courses and email a professor to ask if you can sit in on their class. I already graduated but I'm going to be attending two classes, otherwise I'll become a full-on hermit since my roommates are complete potheads.

Interestingly, the guy I got along with the best was a Local University frat boy that knew everything I was talking about. We had some decent arguments at work about philosophy until he randomly quit like a faggot. So no I don't think you really want /lit/ friends because it's likely that you'll just find yourselves arguing about issues that the both of you are very hardheaded about.

can confirm, i know nothing about sports or EDM festivals but my engineer friends are all top tier bros. every conversation is a power game with """literary""" types. everything devolves into an aloof pissing contest.
