As a shut in with social anxiety and very introverted I’m wondering how to find friends now that I got better. Basically starting from zero since I know nobody in my city so I’m wondering if someone has some experience with finding friends as lonely anxious introvert and just how other people find friends.
That is awesome. I wish men got this kind of support when they are showing distress in public.
edit: I should clarify, not the ‘giving phone number’ part, just some support. In my experience men who look like they are suffering in any way are just actively avoided.
Never really thought of that, but it’s so true how men showing distress just get avoided or ignored…
Or actively ridiculed
Men are always expected to “man up” when dealing with any difficulty, especially emotional ones. Western social culture (values?) is a fucking mess
