wallabra 🇧🇷<p>I like making lots of friends outside! Often at places like the bus or bus stop, the park, and in cafés and other public places.</p><p>Sadly though, a lot of these friendships remain as just online correspondence, with otherwise disconnected lives. It's hard to meet up with people in person, especially when they might live far away or have a very busy routine. Also, it's hard to figure out how to keep a friendship kindled, let alone progress it to something more.</p><p>I've been feeling the lack of person I can actually deeply rely on in an emotional level (and vice versa), and caught myself feeling insufficient at the sight of couples and related stuff online. I mean I'm happy for them, I'm no downer! Over time all of this weights on me, though.</p><p><a href="https://bark.lgbt/tags/vent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vent</span></a> <a href="https://bark.lgbt/tags/loneliness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>loneliness</span></a> <a href="https://bark.lgbt/tags/friendship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>friendship</span></a> <a href="https://bark.lgbt/tags/relationship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>relationship</span></a></p>
