RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

I literally have no friends irl or any relationships at all, not even family. Many often I feel so horrible because of my isolation and loneliness.

I need some hope, have any of you had life experiences with extreme loneliness but built relationships?

Thanks for the comment, well haha I guess its easy to not to choose these proprietary enshittified sites and applications when I am not under peer pressure, suppose that's one great advantage of being lonely - I was suggested dating applications as well by an online friend and I was like hell no lol.

I don't drink nor smoke, I appreciate your perspective and advice!

Jesus, dating apps to make you feel less lonely? ๐Ÿ˜‚

You don't have to drink or smoke at pubs! For event nights you can totally do it sober - I have been for nine months now โœŒ๏ธ but best of luck to you!
