I’m likely on a yet another burnout cycle, and I have little to no possibility of meeting with people thanks to the place I live. I also have trouble with socializing in general, even in online spaces.
Since my current job I don’t make enough to move or to live alone, and the only better place would cost me more than the Hungarian minimum wage (of which I make less than thanks to labor programs 🤢), I cannot really change this, also would only marginally help me since I always had issues with socializing.
Being surrounded by people and being seen by people are two different things.
It sucks but I actually prefer it when I’m ignored, I have had some problems in the passed with people’s true intentions. Usually bites me back, not always but enough.
