Curious to see if this is a "me" thing or not. so does anyone else when they make a new mate become like low key obsessed for a bit? or not obsessed but like, the social anxiety just dial up a couple of notches? just for like the first couple of days of the proper mateship. Then it always settles down. Like every time your phone buzzes your like "Oh, I hope its X person". and when they take a bit to reply you go "Oh, did I message them too many times? did I say something weird?" when you know they're probs just busy.
Not just a you thing. Made a couple of good mates from my gym and texting anxiety was through the roof. Turns out they felt the same.
making mates as an adult is HARD hey
