Oh no, my miserable life that’s devoid of any connection and anyone altogether otherwise *at least contains a friend.

What the fuck man, is this a real concern average people have that I’m way too fucking alienated to understand

On the converse, I tried to take a relationship with a close friend to the next level.

It did not go well and we do not talk anymore kitty-birthday-sad

Yeah see, even if I was deeply interested in a romantic relationship with that person, I’d never take it to the next level and stay within boundaries out of fear of not losing them.

Is that conceited?

Nah, it just seems like a defense mechanism I guess. As @red_stapler@hexbear.net, we learned our lessons.

Wish I had thought like you did at the time. Oh well. Maybe in another life.
