I have realized that, as much as I try to lie to myself, I am incredibly lonely. As I cannot find someone to love me in real life, I play this game because it provides an illusion of community, friendship, and at times affection. I wonder if this is why other people who will say they hate this game keep on playing/coming back after quitting. Thoughts?
A friend of mine stated recently he fully planned on quitting after bf last year. He decided to stay for the social aspect as well. He doesn’t look for a relationship here, just the friendships and connections. He is an introvert, as am I. It’s a little harder for him to approach someone in public than it is on the game. 🩷
Damn bro this is so sad It made me cry But real men don't cry so I uncried and made the tears roll back up into my eyes Real stuff, talking to people on here, that's not uncommon so you're not alone But I feel things like that are a symptoms of our society. Generations growing up on the internet Our society inforcing hyper individualism and competition from a young age - instead of connecting. Covid isolating people more Loss of third places, commutes communities being created Etc etc so people are gonna keep getting lonely Dw when I'm not lazy ill create a thread on how you can connect, make more friends and win da girl of yo dreams
