Hi! So, I just wanted to share a thing I've realized.
Since I got more in touch with IRL and less with the internet, I've noticed a significant change in friends!
In that...
...I don't have many!
And...it's great!

It's such a strange and wonderful feeling.
I really thought I would feel lonely, or abandoned, but I feel very comfortable and positive.
Thanks for listening. ♡
