Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

I moved around a lot as a kid so I never had long-lasting friendships growing up. I finally graduated college, threw a dart on the map, got a cute roommate and settled in, but I'm still really lonely. It's not that I'm an introvert and I don't talk to people, I'm actually very charismatic and people like me if they give me a chance!

The problem is that I don't have a BEST FRIEND SINCE KINDERGARTEN or anyone who's known me for longer than a year or so. I'll always be the new kid and I'm starting to feel like I'll never have that deep and fulfilling friendship that some of the people I know do, and it hurts to always be the Plan B if the best friend for life cancels.

I'm not sure if I'm asking for advice or just whining at this point but it really sucks.

I was a huge, friendless bully target until high school (when I went to a new district) and I felt a little left out there since everyone knew everyone else from middle/elementary school, so I know how that is.

i hear you, anon. i haven't had to move around like you did, but i still have difficulty making it into other people's 'friends that actually matter' ranks. :( the thing with being the new kid, though, is that it passes! the better you get to know the people around you now, the closer you'll get. just give it time, since you're a social person i'm sure it'll turn out just fine!

this was me. then i became an arrogant douchebag and made lots of friends. 10/10 would recommend.

I didn't have any deep friendships until I was in college, and I still really only have two close friends. Neither of them live anywhere near me, and my job involves a lot of long-distance, short-notice travel so it's hard to have much of an IRL social life. I am very much an introvert, though. I know online friendships can be hit or miss, but I met both of my BFFs through online fandom several years ago. I actually don't miss IRL friendships at all...

what kind of job do you have, anon? i love spontaneous travel and would love to do it more often.
