    One big problem I have with getting to know new people is these questions are often reciprocated to one another. And when people ask me the same questions, they get to know exactly how pathetic and empty my life is. I try to avoid the questions but it just makes me uncomfortable because there often is no easy out.

    I don’t have hobbies or passions to talk about. When I get home from work, I literally do nothing but veg out on the couch all evening, mindlessly scrolling on things like YouTube or Lemmy. I don’t have a significant other or children or pets or friends to talk about. And I don’t like people knowing this stuff about me until we’ve gotten close to one another. My life is so pathetic and embarrassing that it makes this stuff really tricky.
