i'll try my best to respond to any post you make in this thread.
just share what you're feeling and maybe post some gondolas too.
come share your problems and feels with me, i'm alI ears.
im lonely and all i want is some love and affection from somebody that cares
>>36327759
i know it might not mean much to you since i'm just an anonymous person on the internet, but i care about you.
even if it's just for as long as this thread lasts, just know that someone cared about you for at least a little while.
i hope you find that love and affection somewhere soon friend.
>>36327848
thanks stranger. i care about you too
>>36327591
Gondola threads are one of the few good things about this board.
I'm going to make some tea now to get extra comfy.
>>36327591
Do you ever feel very dissatisfied with the way culture and the world is going? I just wanna be a hobo and wander around, maybe make a few friends. Experience life as it was meant to be.
>>36328220
that's why i'm making them my dude. what kind of tea are you drinking?
>>36328303
Mix of peppermint, spearmint and green tea.
>>36328296
i do. i just wish i could escape it all.
just wander and maybe find some friends and a nice girl and raise a family somewhere. or just explore forever until i die or fall off a cliff or something.
it doesn't really matter at this point, i just don't like doing the same thing every day anymore.
i like fantasizing about things a lot because then i can pretend like my life is actually interesting and worthwhile like that.
>>36328398
i don't know much about tea but that sounds good man. make sure to get comfy
>>36327591
I have a very odd, almost paternal connection with most of my friends even though they're my age or close. I'm 19, yet I'm treating them like their my kids. I don't want to come off as patronizing them because they're adults who can make their own damn decisions but I want to make sure someone is looking out for them. Why do I think like this, why can't I just be one of the guys and have fun?
>>36327591
i like gondolas
come on, robot, let me post. this is original.
>>36327591
I want to believe in God, but I'm not motivated to. I'm scared.
I'm socially retarded due to homeschool and now my parents think I should get a girlfriend but im afraid to talk to people IRL
>>36328496
this originality robot is pretty annoying
>>36328540
no in this post, robotoriginal
>>36328504
Most religions are very welcoming. Go to services at your local churches/temples, meet people, ask questions find out as much as you can about their beliefs. Maybe you will find something you are comfortable believing in yourself.
Also keep in mind that you can address your spiritual needs without believing in a deity.
>>36328525
I wasn't homeschooled and I have the same problem. Social interactions make me anxious and I can't pick up on social cues. My interactions with people I don't know are always a disaster.
I'm 27 now, my mother wants grandkids and I've never even had a girlfriend. But personally I've learned to enjoy being alone, I don't know if it's healthy or not but it feels good, at least for now.
>>36328663
Not if I want to live in a universe with moral laws. I'm scared the Vicar will kick me out.
>>36328456
i'm not sure. maybe you're just more cautious and thoughtful than they are, and you want them to be the same way.
you could try to just loosen up a little and stop worrying so much, that might help. or just try to find new friends (i know it's easier said than done) that are more on your level or something. it's hard to say.
>>36328496
i like gondolas too
>>36328504
it's okay, for some people belief comes harder to them than others. some people can't really believe in anything like that at all.
but that's okay. i think as long as you try to be a good person, it won't really matter in the end.
don't be scared, friend. as long as you don't do anything horrible on purpose, i think you'll be okay. no matter if you believe in anything or not.
it's difficult for me to believe in anything too.
>>36328525
i was homeschooled too. there's not much i can tell you because i'm trying to figure out how to get by as well.
try taking it slow at first. i'm trying to get better at talking to people online by making some friends here, and it's hard but i think i'm making some progress.
you aren't going to get a gf overnight. but i think if you just keep trying, you can do it.
again, just try to take it slow. maybe if you want to practice talking to people in real life you could try finding some group/social activity for adults you could go to.
>>36328712
Well I guess that's the scary thing about interacting with other people. You never know what he is going to do unless you talk to him.
>>36328722
I like camping but I do it alone though
I don't have any gondolas but have this comfy Lain pic instead
Homeschool anon 2 here with a complimentary bump
>>36329382

>>36329382

What are some good topics of conversation? Like current events and such? Have to be alone with people a long time tomorrow and don't wanna seem like a fag.
>>36330160
i dunno, i'm not very good at conversation either. maybe ask them what they like to do, what makes them happy, what kind of food they like, etc.
that's how i usually start, and you can try to go from there. or at least get some info on them to try and ask something else relevant to their interests (for example: if they like vidya ask them what kind of vidya).
If anyone wants to talk, or a friend, my discord is
@Jason the Skeleton#8975
>get in a fight with my aunt
>lock myself up in my room
>She calls my friend and my friend talks to me about it the next day
>Aunt told friend a "story"
>dont know what story is
Should i freak out now in text or wait? he isnt responding to me
>>36330852
i think you should wait. freaking out to anyone probably isn't going to help much.
>>36330953
Reason im scared is because he said it was a story about me and that could range from being something that would make him not wanna be friends with me anymore or just make the friendship uncomfortable, it doesnt help that my aunts a woman so she has no empathy for men and just does what she wants
>>36331017
maybe try to explain that you're worried that what your aunt is telling him is probably exaggerated or something. you don't have to freak out, just be honest about what you think and see if he responds.
